Why is everybody on this site suddenly a musician?

Seriously. First you were coders. Then you were nothing. Then you were artists, and now you are all musicians? How does a community drift towards such trends when each requires some amount of considerably varied skill? I think the answer is that few of you actually have skill in more than a single one of these areas. I won't name names, but it sure seems to me like many of you are pretty bad at art and/or music. You should probably stop spreading yourselves so thin and focus on fewer creative outlets. At this point it's just getting silly.

That's all I really had to say.

SJF found an exploit on 64D's coding and allowed himself to log in into any user he wanted, without anyone to stop him for a long time and nobody knowing who it was. This meant that he went around enforcing his own rules on 64D even though he wasn't even staff by logging into any user he wanted

or some shit like that, it's been too long and any real history behind it hasn't really been recorded to my knowledge.

Innerestin…

Explanation works for me, I only joined last year so I don't know much about 64D history (besides potfrog) :p

I vote for a page of historical events at 64D like this lol

I'm neither a coder nor an artist nor a musician nor nothing!

I'M A LEVEL DESIGNER AND A MATHEMATICIAN.

It's not necessarily that people are following these trends. It's more that they've been doing it all along and find out that people share their interests, so they have reason to post here.
Well, it seems that way for a reason, lololol.

Okay, you should be commenting on anything at all ever, right?

Also, gml is a bionicle.

And this blog is criticism. Take it as you will, just don't post back if its up the backend. Creating a distasteful comment section.

I think that me being horrible at/hating math is what primarily makes me such a bad programmer.

I do art because I enjoy doing it, it makes me happy and gives me motivation.

I share my art to receive criticism and because I want to 'give' my art to other people so that they may enjoy it and be happy too.

The 'correct' term would be one-man army. That refers to coders who can't afford to hire/coerce artists/musicians/etc to do that kind of work for them. =P
