But what I like about the guide is that is very "human". Admittedly, there isn't a lot of useful information in it. But I actually enjoyed reading it.
For some reason when you said this I pictured "Martha Stewarts's Quake Guide
or "Bob Ross's Quake guide" lol
If this guide is meant to be a joke then I suppose its at least allowing me to laugh knowing Scoffer will be painfully vomiting
When I start getting called a bot or a cheater on a server, I usually find a higher skilled server to play on, not stay on the same server and own noobs for a ego boost heh
On another leaf...
Paradise making a Quake guide... Uhm... ok... I'm still having a difficult time believing this is not a joke
I've personally beatn this player and I eventually stopped trying dew to her complete poor movement skills in Quake. She obviously cannot get over her "RuneQuake" abilities, doesn't watch her back, doesn't listen to sounds like a proper champ should, and can be easily fooled into running into rockets.. I just find it pathetic that this type of player believes they have the nuts to act as if they are a "Thresh" of Quake guides.. Thresh sucks at Quake now he stopped playing years ago that does something to skills
I'm also betting that the general and obvious things can still be said about Quake 1 game play, but the mentality of it has changed since 1996-1997. Almost every single player uses the mouse or equivalent instead of keyboard, most know how to customize their Quake clients to their liking and if the majority of Quakers don't know every single map inside and out by now then you must be doing something wrong.
I know I'm being an asshole about this but seriously... I don't go out and make programming guides just because I can make a website theme that uses 100% CSS, hell I don't even make CSS guides because I'm not going to be telling people shit they don't know for people who are interested. Or people who don't know will find a guide formed such as Paradise's to be lazy and un-informative and still leave someone who is looking for quality knowledge in a trash can just so she can stroke her ego and think she has a loyal fanbase because she can beat a handful of noobs at a computer game.
All in all, I would have left Thresh's Quake Bible alone and not try to write "Thresh's Quake Bible the new testament by some dumb bitch who can't hang with the big boys"
thats BuUULLsSSHIT!.
Shmack isn't the Pinnacle of highly elite Quakers, its the aftermath when the elite have left. Paradise is no acceptation to this. She isn't even middle Teir quality by today's standards in my book and that's being lenient compared to some others have said about her.
its my belief that the higher skilled Quake players don't spent their time on a RuneQuake server because on a RuneQuake server there's always something to even the playing field between "crap player1" and "decent player2" its a usually unfair balance however such as deathspots being spammed on teleporter destination markers which isn't exactly skill (I will say its smart however). But higher skilled players and probably lower skiller players see it as a cheap way to make a frag, not to mention the handful of other things within the mod that allows player1 to kill player2 by the simple stroke of a button.
Some see instant kill's as a skill, or say "You have to be skilled enough to avoid getting hit with instant kills" I personally say BuULLsSSHIT!! If you can't access the other half of the level to get frags because a noob figured out how to spawn deathspots in front of the teleporter, once aginst, not skill, but can be considered smart though cheap and feels desperate to me.
One of the things that I don't understand about Paradise is she is always talking about challenging herself and always using Quake 1 as a tool to enhance her skills. If she really obeyed what she preaches she would be on the hardest servers to win on constantly getting herass handed to her to help improve her game. Not sitting on RuneQuake racking up frags off of noobs who don't stand a chance, I find that pathetic and a cowards game.
