I rarely (if at all), delete responses, so I don't think so. I checked your IP against all other comments I have, and I can't find any others. If you would actually leave me a way to respond, let me know what you said that is now gone, perhaps then I could help you. In general though, I don't delete posts, so unless you swore up a storm (in which I generally just edit the text, not delete), you really shouldn't have been deleted. Comment me again, with a proper email, or a proper description of what exactly you're referring to.

Nice article, but I think everyone gets sick with their jobs and when you have nothing to think about apart from what you’re going to do when you get out of your shift this definately spurs on the need to make something good and give yourself a leg up out of the life you are living, but ultimately the one you don’t want.

I go insane not using my mind, I start to get very angry and just have a hard time keeping myself in high spirits." Happens to me too! I was moving from cybercafe to cybercafe and I keep wondering why I never feel occupied and can't act nice to the visitors. Color.. I love purple so it is fine but it might feels bright for others? “This may not sound so bad, but 40 hours of this just isn’t my cup of tea, at all.

Clearly it needs to be changed, but I don't know what to. I can change it in two seconds if anyone can suggest a good color that's not white, I'll do anything aside from white. Thanks for the input on the post, congrats on 5 years of self employment, that's awesome. Many people have complained about the text, while other have said it’s perfectly fine.

I definitely feel like you do about the absolute hell that can be working a mindless, low paying job and I almost feel that strongly about working any job for a 'boss'. I've been fortunate to be self employed now for over 5 years and hope I never have to go back to having a job working for someone else. Worse case, it better be a job with a game studio... ;) Anyway, enjoyed reading about your travails. One other small note.. there is no way I can read your purple text it literal bugs out as I try to read it and gives me a headache within a minute or two. I'd like to keep reading your blog but I think I'm gonna have to paste your text into something friendlier... :P Good luck with a new game too.. I loved Tower of Greed!

Thanks for sharing, and congrats on getting your community service done. I could use a bit of motivation myself for making games lately, although I'm not sure if I want to go out and do community service to get it. Maybe I'll give playing some good games a go to get into the developing mood. Interesting read Porter. Thanks for sharing, and congrats on getting your community service done.
