You can also beat the first clocktower within 5 minutes.

We know if a person is new, if you really want people to like you, start joining in conversations and making worthwhile on-topic replies. Contrary to popular belief, there's NOTHING wrong with being a "newbie". There is, however, plenty wrong with being a "newbie who doesn't pay attention to the posting guidelines". We generally roast them over an open flame... very slowly.

5) Post Counts - It's not a contest here on the boards. Your post count means JACK SHIT. Just because you have 1000 posts doesn't mean you're going to all of a sudden gain a lot of respect, if anything, we'll just pity you for accumulating so many posts in such a short period of time. Do NOT make lots of posts just to simply drive up your post count. Anybody caught doing this will be warned the first time, and then banned if they're caught doing it again.

6) It's also not a humor contest here on the boards. For fucks sake, please just be yourself and not some flamboyant jackass who is trying to impress us all with how funny you are. If you're naturally funny, it will show. Just try to contribute to the conversations rather than ruining them. People in the GENERAL BLABBER forum REALLY need to keep this in mind.

7) Replying to topics - I cannot stress it enough when I say YOU DON'T HAVE TO REPLY TO EVERY SINGLE POST. You people know who you are... you have this sick need to reply to every single thing that is posted on these forums even if it has nothing to do with you. If you have a desire to respond that frequently, try a fucking chat room.

The damn little guy was probably the most easily bamboozled cripple in a videogame ever to be taken down by a single punch from a teenage girl. You could usually just walk right by him, and since he was the only animate disaster to pose to you, that dropped the scariness down to a negative 1, meaning it was more goofy funny than it was scary. And it only got a 1 out of 10 on the goofy funny.

I admit luring the scissorman into a "KABONG" log on the head trap and others was very fun, but its only fun so many times.

And even though I haven't played it since 1999, here's a quick list of misc things I can think of off the top of my head that were wrong with it:
The story was stupid and banal (our "insert realative" is crazy and has a history of violence). The controls were a nightmare. The overabundance of worthless items were basically packing material to fill the game. I couln't tell what was drawn on almost any of the textures. It is rediculously easy. You like it.

Now please give up this delusion that obsessing over some vague crappy game will make you look like a video game elitist.

Too many people do this. Elaborate beyond the usual fodder negative comments. I can respect that you don't like the game but I'd like to see more than just the "It's not scary, it's shitty and terrible" bit.

Besides, I didn't know great graphics were essential to the gaming experience. Guess I learn something new each day.
