  1. Hi, I'm a potential new user! I found a link on pinguspy and got all excited. A happy sandbox MMO, with crafting (maybe) and lots to explore (hopefully) and *titter*... so excited. Seeing the link concerning java, I resigned myself to that most loathed of tasks... updating Java. On Slackware. As a Chrome user.... Do you need details? After about 3/4 of an hour of downloading, slackbuilding, installling, uninstalling, reinstalling, verifing profile.d scripts, uh, wait, that's right... you didn't want details. 7u60... not 8u5 - no no~! Thats the *newest* JRE, (hahahahhahhahaha) you don't use the newest stuff! OMG this is JAVA it's the "right" one, not the newest one. There is no "backward" in "Oracle". After about 45 mins, I have jre 7u60 proudly beaming from my dusty copy of Firefox. Press Play. Error. Run failed. Check details (Java pathhell stack trace unreadable, wtf am i even trying to figure here?) Check forums (notice a lot of "common" linux issues). Find the javaws run line. Try it from bash. Error. Run Failed. Here's what I've concluded: I would really like like to see your product. Your on a free to pay model and you (pointing at AB Code Club), you want me to see your product. The video looked great. You want to suck me into hours of poking around and making friends and becoming part of your community. I saw definate signs of browncoats in the area. I probably would have fit right in. JAVA IS YOUR ENEMY Yes, it seemed like a great idea at the time... platform independance (except Oracle has basically flipped off most everyone including their developers and users, and oh, there is no such thing), great support (uh, ok. If you say so), and it SOUNDS so cool..."java", "Jah-VA", "jAH-Va"... yes, yes, very cool. You know what sounds really cool? Javascript + HTML5. That's pretty freaking cool. You know what might have sounded even better: NATIVE CLIENT! And if your Really Smart you will just develop linux anyway cause that's where Valve is headed. </rant> Anyway. I *WAS* a potential new user. Kthxbye!
