WTF Contributing: Being typical computer science students, we hate people. Please don't contact us. Nobody likes Age of Empires anyway. None of you is interested in making openage more awesome anyway. We don't want a community. Don't even think about trying to help. Guidelines: No bug reports or feature requests, the game is perfect as is. Don't try to fix any bugs, see above. Don't implement any features, your code is crap. Don't even think about sending a pull request. Please ignore the easy tasks that could just be done. Absolutely never ever participate in this boring community. Don't note the irony, you idiot. To prevent accidental violation of one of those guidelines, you should never

It's a joke. It's obvious that they want people to contribute, as this follows with: --- To prevent accidental violation of one of those guidelines, you should never * learn git * fork the repo * learn python * learn c++14 * read the code and documentation * contribute anything to the code * contact us cheers, happy hecking. --- The contribution guide in general is pretty well written and welcoming.

Probably a little overdone in terms of sarcasm/2nd degree, to the point that it's not really funny. It references https://github.com/SFTtech/openage/blob/master/doc/contributing.md https://github.com/SFTtech/openage/blob/master/doc/contribut... for contribution guidelines though
