How do I stop this?

TinyPirate :
I wrote them to piss you off. There you go, the cat is out of the bag now.

Heh! Nice response! Here I am, second night in a row of looking forward to and following your tutorial, and being GRATEFUL for it, and this “faf” guy’s now year-old comment stings me and ticks me off. He shot me from a year away! I’d like to think he was trolling because it was so massively inappropriate in the face of all your generous effort.

Salute TinyPirate! I love the humor throughout the tutorial and it’s great (and ironic) that you used some on this goofball. =)

Metalcrafters have smother, smelting and armor crafting enabled. Peons only have hauling enabled. This sort of schema makes it easier for me to divide jobs up in ways which make sense for me :)

Perhaps I’m being particularly obtuse, but it seems all you’ve done is change the default name of those groups, not their job abilities. I do see how you can use DM to create highly specialized (one or two skill) categories. Is that the point I seem to have trouble understanding?

It’s too bad anonymity allows people to spout garbage they would hesitate to utter face-to-face.

Without it, I wouldn’t be able to play. I’m also VERY grateful for the copies of the files. I would have given up on Dwarf Fortress entirely if not for this tutorial, and it’s really fun once you start to get the hang of it. Once you’re out of the tutorial and off on your own, losing really is fun! Cheers!
