Not very nice nor funny .. basically you're leading people away from Irrlicht, if they have a question and you start making fun of them. You may have a great sense of humor and all, but it rarely translates well over the Internet, especially since the user logged onto #irrlicht, not #usofunny, so they were expecting help, not mockery.

Hi Eigen,
why so serious?

After all I said that was joke and we helped some Fist (i also talked with him on PM about his problem).
He also laugh after that i said that was joke, so he can remember as a friendly, with sense of humor community - not serious and boring community.

It is funny BUT I hope you don't do this again as you are spreading false information...

After all he got one month for free, I guess he would have used the free subscription first

I find this very funny

eh, kinda mean, some people would have taken it differently than him and just left.

Agreed. If I weren't the wiser, I would have just left. Humor doesn't carry over that well into ASCII text
