hello again people, my computer got fudgeed up again, and it was only fixed about a fortnight ago. anyway, the point is, dink smallwood was just a phase for me, i get the game, its cool, try to make a dmod, find this place, get sucked into it, spend about 4 hours a day doing dink related things, computer breaks, now i dont like the game anymore. i'll still probably hang around for a while, almost certinly during summer, but in all honesty, i cant realy see why i liked the game in the first place, i think mainly, i enjoyed making games with premade engines, so ultimatly, it didnt involve much of a challange. speaking of which, does anybody know a good c compiler and tutorial i could be baffld at for a while then get bored of?
anyway, i realy enjoyed my stay in your community, your all realy dead on, and i hope this place lasts for a good while to come.

P.S. glenn, did that dmod we started to make work out?

I think most of the old-timers don't really like the game all that much. I mean, sure, it is fun for a while, but once you've been playing it for 7 years it gets kind of old

I rarely play new D-Mods any more, unless it does something really different. I'm here for the community, maintaining the site, and for creating my own D-Mods.

I'm a man, but I can change, if I have to.I guess. 
Yeah... I completely agree.. But then again, as many of you know, I haven't even had dink installed for 3 years now.

Good C Compiler? GCC.

Mepis: The Distro for people who weren't smart enough to use anything else.

Seriously, Mepis and [k]Ubuntu (Kubuntu is better than ubuntu because it uses KDE) are pretty much the worst distributions out there. Plus, they use .deb packages. Ick!

Im kinda confusedafied by the whole thing, especialy saying as it said it would take 1 day and 16 hours to download. and i have broadband. what im looking for, is something slightly more user freindly, a step up from dinkc, but not quite as hard as a full on c compiler. i dont know a single command in c, but its something id like to take start doing. thx.

C++ is similiar to DinkC.

...wait, that's not true!

C++ is more similar to DinkC than it is to basic. It's been a while since I wrote anything in it (I don't do much programming), but I've always found it relatively easy to use. I use DevC++.

Take a look at either Lua or Pascal.
