- StavrosK 8y agoIt means that as much as "Sieg heil" means "hail to victory" and is an appropriate thing to say before a football match. You can't just take an existing phrase and pretend it doesn't mean what it means and feedback of the current meaning as "personal experiences".
- shrimp_emoji 8y agoI've never said ggez in a game before. I don't even play multiplayer games anymore. But I will, and I'll say it, just because of your posts.
- Retra 8y agoMaybe act like an adult instead.
- StavrosK 8y agoDismiss* feedback, missed a word there.
- reificator 8y agoI've not been on the receiving end of `ggez` in online games, and it wouldn't really get to me if I were. (I should note, I also have not been on the sending end. Just preempting that question...) That said, I don't think it's reasonable to pretend it's not a common, rude saying in the online gaming community. It absolutely is. And the online gaming community and game development communities are inextricably linked, like it or not. I avoided even starting to look into `ggez` for a long time because I assumed a frat bro culture around it, entirely because of the name. I don't get that feeling from using it, from reading the documentation or reading issues on Github. (though it's been awhile since I did any of those things) But because it's named that, potential contributors and users are going to skip over it for Amethyst or Piston because they don't start off alienating people just from their names.
