You know why people flame Lua coders? Because 99% of the people are idiots and 99% of the releases are absolute crap. I can name one Lua game with good graphics, sound and engine, and (big suprise) I was a programmer for it. Meeku's Quest. Everything else I've seen is well... bad. And alot of people who release the Lua games can't seem to work out the difference between "your" and "you're". I know there are exceptions, but let's face it, Lua and it's good developers have been ruined by these sorts of releases and people. Don't blame the haters.

A little more moderator control over there would be in order.

This isn't a flame, so please don't be offended, but take a look at the level of attention to detail that many "Lua coders" display. Your post is a perfect example of why the overwhelming majority of Lua projects aren't taken seriously. That is, it's obvious that the "coders" themselves don't take the projects seriously. With the ammount of energy that some of these Lua projects have being poured into them, the coders would seriously be better off learning C and making a game unhampered by Lua's limitations. But since many Lua coders can't even think that far ahead, you should understand why so many of us are skeptical of Lua projects. In whole, the PSP Lua community has shown little resolve in actually furthering quality projects.

If you want to be taken seriously, stop releasing mere simple mockups as full game alphas, betas, and end releases. Not only will you be too occupied to read the flames, but the flamers will have less ammunition as well. Everyone wins.

I think it's cool that so many aspiring coders are gaining experience through Lua, but it's obvious that many of the "releases" we see are done just to get attention, and it gets old, quick. The flamers over there are off the hook in general, but take a nice honest look at most of the Lua releases. Flaming is deffinately excessive, but do you honestly expect them to be impressed? Everyone needs to keep in mind "if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all", but when Lua projects get released on news forums, commenting is expected, even if the commentors have nothing nice to say, so you really shouldn't be too surprised.

Once again, I don't sympathize with the flamers, but the best way to fight them is just to shut them up. Proove them wrong. Wow us all. Happy coding (!_!)
