Scrolling is gay. You have to wait for it to scroll and it strains your eyes. Go on my server to see rule/banned items/tips/etc. on monitors in action.

The IP can be found here.

I find that using the term gay in that way is offensive.

I find that making an entire post just to complain about something like that is gay. When I want to say something stupid, I at least have the decency to make sure to say something relevant/useful alongside it to weight it out. Like this...

I forgot to say - I find it easy to write the info on a text file, with a line of equal signs equal to the width of the screen, so I know where the line breaks are and it doesn't end up looking all gay. Then you can have Lua read the file line by line and it looks super straight on your monitor. :)

Hate speech is quite a bit more important than anything tekkit related.

As do most people in real life.

When you say stuff like this in response to a (legitimate) request to STFU, it tells people that you think "gay" is an insult or indicates stupidity. Get it? Good. Consider yourself warned.

I find that gay isn't a negative term. Go ahead and express those confused feelings with aggression and hate somewhere else.

So you find that making a post to complain about something is happy?

[Xylord]

Dayum. What has been up with being awkwardly socially offensive lately.

Exactly... I was warned twice for calling a particular action happy. It's called non-profane sarcastic slang. -_-

Nobody is buying it, and nobody WILL buy it anywhere outside of minecraft either. Maybe it will require you getting fired from a job or two or screwing up a few dates before it sinks in, but I hope not.

You're lucky to get negative repercussions in a videogame forum, which isn't all that important, first. If you're smart, you'll take it to heart now and avoid yourself the embarrassment later in a situation where it matters more for your life.

And I was being sarcastic.

Fuck off. :wink:

[Jorcer]

Fuck off.

Was that "non-profane sarcastic slang" or just profanity?

I just want to make sure the OP knows if he should be insulted or not (not that it matters now...)

Next time try reading the rules here before posting about rules... That might help

I think you have the wrong guy, the one who was screwing up this thread wasn't doctor, it was VideoBoy.

Doctor, I'm not certain, but I've never seen monitors print in colour. Check out the ComputerCraft wiki, you should find any information there.

You are correct. He still didn't read the rules though.

True, true. I must be tired, I missed the warning sign. Fail.

They sorta can but its only a local change. IIRC

All you need is a computer and some monitors.

C = 0

While C == 0 do

print("Whatever")

sleep(1)

end

and you need your startup to be:

shell.run("monitor", "right", "[above program]")

Probably a syntax error or two, havnt written in LUA recently.
