That is exactly what we want. Thank you sir.

This is an indie project and not vaporware. If you don't have anything polite and positive to contribute to this thread, don't even think about this button.

Be careful. I'm on the verge of doing just that.

I looks like you have an old beef from some other forum. Your very first post launches a vitriolic attack seemingly from out of nowhere, at least as far as Subsim is concerned. When people ask you to tone down the anger, you turn around and attack them. You've had two moderators respond to you politely asking you to do the same, and you've tried to entangle them in your problem.

Your last post at least tried to add in some humor. That's good. However, while his responses have been slightly hostile, Red October has been responding in kind to your expressed attitude. He's been here awhile, and everyone here knows that he is neither troll nor boor.

You say you know that the OP is a one man operation, yet you continually complain that he's not living up to your standards and imply that he isn't working hard enough. If Apple has a complaint, that's between them and him. If you have some actual involvement, take it up with him privately and officially. If not, don't introduce yourself to Subsim with an ongoing attack.

It's okay to ask why something isn't what you thought it should be. Once. It's okay to complain. Once. What you're doing is nothing short of an all-out war, and yes, despite your protests, what you are doing is flaming. We don't go for that here. I'm not suggesting, I'm telling: You need to stop this now.

Very well said Steve. I don't think anything more needs to be added. Either he can stop, or we can call the cavalry.

As i stated above, I shan't comment on this vapourw-- ....
um ....
... on this one man project currently in fervent development ever again.

But I simply must protest against this obvious instance of cyberbullying!
If it persists, I'm gonna call Ellen! lol

[Red October1984]

It'd be best if you did exactly this and let it die down instead of trying to fix it.

Turn the page and start over.

My pastor says I should be more assertive & stand up more to what is obviously
the dark forces the Devil 'imself at work!

However, if I continue to get gangbanged whilst obviously in the midst of peace overtures,
well, then, my hand will be forced to respond accordingly.

Find solace in Scripture, brother.

I ask again for the mods to act on what is obviously a conscious and consistent breach of act of our forum regulations and moderator demands.

Even Wikipedia defines this behavior:

Troll (Internet)
In Internet slang, a troll (/ˈtroʊl/, /ˈtrɒl/) is someone who posts inflammatory,[1]extraneous, or off-topic messages in an online community, such as a forum, chat room, or blog, with the primary intent of provoking readers into an emotional response[2] or of otherwise disrupting normal on-topic discussion.[3]

I'm not the Devil. I'm not sure if I should take that as an insult or a joke. You were attacking v-i-c's project so we asked you to stop. When you tried to fix it, I asked you to just stop and let it go.

I have to ask...how old are you?

I have no idea. Seems it's just another "I'm gonna start an argument because I can and because you aren't agreeing with me" user. It's kinda starting to remind me of garren from a while back in that Boy Scout thread.

[Sailor Steve]

Okay, at this point I'm going to ask everybody to take a break and let this line of posting drop. If someone wants to comment on the subject in a reasonable manner, great. I would request that we stay on topic and further refrain from any antagonistic posts.

As a side note, I don't have an iPhone, iPad or iAnything, nor to I plan on having any of the above in the foreseeable future, but I must say that 'storm' video looks very nice. I'm looking forward to more.

[Red October1984]

I've followed the Facebook posts about this project.

Actually, this is the first time in a while that I've actually looked into this thread. I've been eagerly awaiting this since I first saw it.

And this is coming from a guy with Nazis in his sig.
Anyhoo ....

Chronologically, I'm 50.
But I have the brain of a 50 year old.

And it is with that, that I shall take my leave,
since I'm obviously not wanted here.
May you always have the wind at your back & a star to guide you ....
Or however that nautical saying goes.

I am not certain yet if there will be external beta testers

Just for the record. I am using a new iOS6 GLSL feature on devices with Apple A5 and higher (iPhone4S, 5 / iPad2, 3, 4, mini / iPod touch 5). So if you have one of those it will make sense to update to iOS6.

I still can't say how long it takes to finish the Midget Sub Sim, but iOS7 should be already released then. I've decided to prepare the midget game to be almost 100% ready for the main WOTA title, so that most of the additional work for WOTA will be 3D Models, land and extended AI only.

I am a bit addicted to improvements - in its current state the game does not look like on any picture or video you saw within the last months (they are all really outdated)

Special note to iPadCary: I can do that because this is my project and I can develop it as long as I want till I think it is good enough.

As a side note, I don't have an iPhone, iPad or iAnything, nor to I plan on having any of the above in the foreseeable future, but I must say that 'storm' video looks very nice. I'm looking forward to more.

I will release it for Mac/Windows/Linux later.
