Minos Posted July 10, 2007 Report Posted July 10, 2007 Congrats on kicking him out. Too bad it took you guys like 2 or 3 years to figure DaveL was a jerk
jaboo224 Posted July 10, 2007 Report Posted July 10, 2007 So far the art on the mod is great. I wish the best of luck for you guys.
Defrag Posted July 11, 2007 Report Posted July 11, 2007 Come on, didn't everyone else love getting pm'ed by DaveL just so he could wank all over your face for 20 minutes while attempting to disguise it as a two-way conversation? "Oh so how is it going?" "It's going ok, got this d.." "That's great. Listen, we just got this guy, this guy and this guy and they're all from companies x, y and z. This guy got some award and wanted to join us. Blah blah blah blah. Here, have a little career advice: learn to model blahblahblah. Insert more patronising waffle and ignore the fact that I've never cut a line of code, made a map, prop or texture." The ND guys obviously had tolerance in spades. I would've murdered him inside a week. He was like the mod equivalent of a middle manager. The only good thing he managed to do is recruit a bunch of talented guys. Best of luck to ND now that you're free of him because you have some awesome talent aboard.
Pericolos0 Posted July 11, 2007 Report Posted July 11, 2007 Maybe in the future when I have more time I'd like to work on this . I've always been extremely impressed with the quality of your art. I'm probably the only one here that sortoff liked daveL. I wouldn't want him to lead a team that I'm in, but I used to have alot of good conversations with him in the past.
FMPONE Posted July 11, 2007 Report Posted July 11, 2007 The Nuclear Dawn team DID kick him, but only after he himself left the mod for something like 2 months, thats always puzzled me. So I guess no matter how you feel about him the end reality is that he gave up and moved on, or got into a car wreck or something XD

KungFuSquirrel Posted July 11, 2007 Report Posted July 11, 2007 My personal favorite was back during NW when he claimed BadMofo was his lead LD and that half the team or something was interested in joining him instead and was telling me how awesome the Israeli and Korean PR departments were going to be. This was in late 2003, shortly after the HL2 announcement. Glad to see you guys are still on track (and hopefully better for the wear); you've got some fantastic content and talent going for you. Looking forward to seeing what you guys pull together.
st0lve Posted July 11, 2007 Report Posted July 11, 2007 Is davel really running imagine-center? awesome
sam_justice Posted July 11, 2007 Author Report Posted July 11, 2007 We could really use one more level designer if any of you are interested.
Minos Posted July 12, 2007 Report Posted July 12, 2007 I'd love to work on an ND map eventualy but I just don't have the time/energy at the moment to commit myself to a "full time" project. Maybe when it comes out, who knows.
