You would. You would just need to make sure to be careful to not repeat the things that got you banned too much. There's also that posting activity policy, but given your activity, I doubt this would be a problem.

Btw certain CoT got banned a few times before too. I think one or two even got banned during the nDoom policy, but most bans lasted about 30 minutes. However if we notice for example that one of them trolls all the time or mess with people/disrupts convos they can even get demoted. I personally wouldn't see the point of having fun at other ppl expenses, though.

Yeah. I had a discussion with him and he pretty much did the exact same thing during the entire discussion (not bothering to respond and not seeming to care anymore), which pissed me off. However now he works 10 hours a day, 60 hours a week, and given that he did not even come to post one single day in the week, it is clear that we won't see anything from him again in the near future.

I think somebody like leafiness or another person willing to do a game with physics should probably try to request the source of Portal from him so maybe it can be finished. I left the sub-forums in the major TI projects section, in case.

if he's willing to hand it over we could always make it a sort of group project. i'd love to see that source =D

Yeah it would be cool. The issue is that given how things went between us (and due to what happeend in the past 2 months) I'm not sure if he will remain around afterward, and normally, in the first place, when somebody is prevented from having any free time for 2-3 months like what is gonna happen to him, he eventually loses interest in his hobbies, as he got used to not having access to them, then afterward he moves on. I saw this happen with Simplethinker and a few others.

However now he works 10 hours a day, 6 hours a week

First of all, lol at that error. Anyways, I don't think Builder is unwilling to talk to you, it's just that he has more pressing matters on his hands. I know he's a busy guy, but that doesn't mean he lost interest in Portal X or his contest entry, because I don't think he would do something like that ><

When I was gone for a month just now, I felt like that. If I had not decided to come back when I did, I probably never would have come back.

Sorry I meant 60 hours.

Yeah sometimes I kinda feel that way. I did not leave or anything, but a few months ago I felt sick or down sometimes and slacked down in posting, but when I stopped having life issues, I didn't feel interested as much for posting as I used to, same for calc stuff. Also I had something similar happening when I lost net access for 5 months in 2007. I coded more, but when I returned I didn't feel as interested in posting, for some reasons, although it wasn't a problem to post a bit, since the forums averaged at 2 posts a day when i returned O.O

NO WHAT ARE YOU EVEN THINKING REMOVING PORTAL X SUBFORUMS ><

Hope he still plans on finishing that D: It's one of those projects that I'm really, really looking forward to playing someday.

However now he works 10 hours a day, 60 hours a week,

I guess some things do turn out to be more pressing than calc stuff :( Hope you come back soon Builderboy.
