Kinboat's Lottery/Deli Line June 13th 2005

[Red Door]

Check the arriving/leaving thread in OT.
I checked his last activity, Dec. 20th.

I'm thinking that he is lacking in motivation because of Civ4. What he needs is motivation to come here and release his masterpieces to the community.

What we need is a fair way to pay Kinboat, as I can't think of anything else that will work.

paypal transfer

Come on guys, you know he's not going to be bribed into making more units....

 

[Sword_Of_Geddon]

You don't know that....besides it not bribery, its payment rendered for services received..

 

[Stormrage]

First, we have to find where he lives. Than we follow him all day, learn his daily ruotine, and than we start leaving Civ3 reminders for him to found, game-posters, CD-s, Demo-s, grafity sayin something like Civ3 modding is da best, better than crack! and such.. Also, every single member active in the Civ3 C&C section should send him an E-mail. There are also options of kidnapping, blackmailing and such..

 

[Varlin Saliptor]

I have a feling that if he just comes back online and looks at this thread, that should be enough...lol

 

[Sword_Of_Geddon]

I like Stormrage's idea....

But exactly I was serious about the paying Kinboat part lol...

Heres an idea...everyone put COME BACK KINBOAT! in your signiture...and we will go from there..

I don't think there is a single person on here who would not love for Kinboat to find his muse and create more of his moving art. The same with Aaglo and other great unit creators.
I am grateful Muffin and UtahJazz7 have returned to grace us with the occasional unit.
I am very happy Wyrmshadow, Orthanc, Aluminum, and so many others remain active.
However, I think I will choose to respect the wishes of those who choose to go do other things (for only a while, I hope). I don't think pressure for them to change from level of activity to another is productive.
So while it would be great if Kinboat, Aaglo, and so on decided to return, maybe we should just be happy they made what they did and let them enjoy their break.

I have a better idea, and one that might work, because it worked with Muffins.... Namely, I could email him and ask him if he has the models for these units, and if so could I have them so's I could finish the units out for him. Since Muffins did just that with the galbadian trooper (he even had it about 3/4 animated, but I'm still kind of intimidated by OpenFX's UI, so I've put that project on the back burner for now), I think Kinboat might be willing to do that as well.. I do know that Kinboat lives about 2.5 hours NE of me, and if worse comest to worst, I could get a phone book and try calling him (but only if I can't find he email).

 

[Sword_Of_Geddon]

That would be funny if you actually met the guy...

 

[LMR]

you should get a signed photo

 

[Stormrage]

We know he sneaks around here sometimes. I like SoG`s sig idea, as you can see from my sig , maybe it`ll work?

Modders, and others, unite,
convince him of returning, we just might!

 

[Virote_Considon]

Wait! Saying "KINBOAT, COME BACK!" may just make him go back to the wrong forum! (i.e. the civ IV forums!!!)

we need to have the sig's say "KINBOAT, COME BACK! to the civ 3 C&C forums"

 

[Stormrage]

Wait, he aint doin nuffin for the IV either? I thought he ditched III cause of the IV...

 

[Virote_Considon]

good point... but then he may go to the civ 2 forums!!! He may purposley try every way to avoid thed civ 3 forums!!! (I know if I held any sort of authority in this world, I would XP)

 

[Stormrage]

Hmm... If he does try to avoid us, and IT IS obvious who wants him to go back where, then he`ll just ignore us, or say No. But we have to try. I see you haven`t changed your sig yet...

 

[Virote_Considon]

I havn't been near the user CP in a while!!! (About a year-ish!)

 

[Stormrage]

Khm... DO IT!

Put this in your sig! - KINBOAT, COME BACK!

 

[Virote_Considon]

I've changed it!
