Relax TKG, all I was saying was I got the opposite interpretation of what you were saying, I thought Dailly was the real troll and not NPT, but that was an error in judgement.

For a small pinch of what I've witnessed look at his profile feed - http://gmc.yoyogames.com/index.php?app=members&module=profile&section=status&type=memberall&member_id=77112&st=0

Slammin Sam and roytheshort obviously recognize he likes to argue even long after all tensions have died down, he's insulting and presents himself as a common trouble maker for no existent reason to name. Very impulsive and stubborn. I can easily find more but I won't waste my time, this I actually found by accident. Yeah most of his feed is old news, but it sums it up pretty good and it all applies to the present as he's still actively making these same mistakes.

Ah yes, those two shining examples of good behavior.

Thanks for posting this TKG, like I said earlier I was not that much active on the GMC apparently I missed a lot of drama

But after reading this "pinch" as you put it,
I am wondering how the bloody hell do they let this happen ? Another person doing this would have been out long ago.

Perhaps he has vested interest in YYG ? investor ? who knows......

But these kinds of people I have come across quite a lot in real life so yeah, I can clearly see the rudeness in his replies.  It's funny because back in the days I have read actually good posts from him, odd..... but oh well.....  and it's apparent by the links you posted that people are calling him out too.
He must be a BIG incentive to YYG if they keep him around.

He used to be a pretty helpful person, but over the past few years he's gotten quite mean. As to why he doesn't get warned or banned, he simply skirts the line without really crossing it. I honestly don't know why he spends so much of his life patrolling the GMC though, I guess he has nothing better to do.

Well that part I witnessed ages ago, where he was helpful.  I don't know what happened, medication? life trauma ? not getting any ?
large eggplant fell on his head ? who knows.....But to be fair there are FAR WORSE than him, don't look far, YYG themselves - I have seen very rude replies from YYG inside the bug mantis, guess perhaps it's no wonder nobody has touched NPT yet

crossing it. I honestly don't know why he spends so much of his life patrolling the GMC though, I guess he has nothing better to do.

Indeed.

A simpler theory than a conspiracy between YYG and NPT would be that those who get banned are more annoying to YYG than NPT is, because they spread false rumors and throw tantrums about GM, while NPT calls them out for doing so.

Good point, however, who is NPT to police the forums and make himself an authority, besides, there are proper ways to deal with this, and it should be up to the moderators and staff, not a member to be policing others.

The ends don't justify the means and 2 wrongs don't make a right.

[Rusky]

Calling someone out for lying and/or throwing a tantrum is not a "wrong." It may not build friendship with those being called out, but it's not something that needs to be pushed onto the moderators, who have enough work to do as it is.

[time-killer-games]

"Calling someone out" and "cursing someone out" are apparently the same thing. But whatevs so what we disagree.

Yeah but who the bloody hell is he to police the GMC that's the point ! There is a difference between contributing in a respectful tone and being rude, insulting and looking for trouble, which from the recent stuff I read is quite obvious from this individual.  There is a difference however if one is defending oneself, such as when something is directed at you, you will call someone out, but when you start responding and calling out when you were never involved, that's another story, in that case a person is taking an authoritative figure they don't have, just to prove something or just some ego trip.

Perhaps YYG deems that overall he has made more helpful contributions than bad ones and that he has not really crossed that line to be banned, which is fine, but there are limits to this kind of behaviour.
I know many places where he'd be banned for some of his comments.

In any case, I could care less not been on the GMC for ages, and to be honest now that I have found my new software, ENIGMA, which is getting better and better, and intend to do everything from scratch with it, G**MakerStudio Pro is probably the last of money money they will get from me, unless GMS 2 is significantly better, faster, and doesn't INSULT windows developers with useful functions being deprecated and being put tight on a bloody leash !  So yeah,

[time-killer-games]

He thinks he owns the place even though not only does he not work for YYG and they don't need or want his "help" but he hasn't made a single game in his life. He has no business being a member of any game creation or programming site, let alone he seems to specifically choose the GMC as his primary spamming grounds. Unless he can actually complete or publicise a single demo (or at least 1 tiny screenshot) of his imaginary work he has no right acting like a police, and certainly no rights to be an actual member. He doesn't actually do anything but talk. A mouth with legs. No actual doing. Just mouthing for no apparent reason. Way too much time on his hands, yes daz he has nothing better to do.

[Darkstar2]

I agree with TKG and couldn't have said it better myself, only thing I disagree with, the community is open for all members, not only those who make games.  Don't forget people showing interest and new comers.  Not everyone has time to make games but are interested to learn for the future.

Though I have seen some forum admins act like him, but he is 1) not an YYG employee 2) not a staff 3) does not own the forum.

BTW TKG, you mean he hasn't made one game or demo ? I thought he had his website and production company ?!?!? If it's the case, then it's sad.  If he's hanging around the GMC to share his wee knowledge with people, that's fine, even you don't make games.....but if the sole purpose is to pick fights and insult people, that's another story.

But he used to be in the helpful category, somehow lightning struck him one day and he changed.....oh well.

One day he might actually cross that line and might be dealt with, who knows,
