I know one person, but I dont like him in real life or online, and he only played one game for about 5 minutes about 2 years ago.

I tried to introduce three people to BYOND. One of them proclaimed that it was "crap" (for reasons unknown to me) and continued to work on his ultimately doomed 3D game; one of them thought it was pretty good, but was more of a player than a developer and had other games he liked better (he was on 56k, too, so the online aspect didn't appeal quite as much!); and one of them had other games he wanted to play.

So, somewhere between zero and three. =)

Ok, top 5 reasons why people dont like BYOND.
5. They have to get a key, and they think its some sort of scam.
4. They cant figure out how to make a game.
3. Its not 3D.
2. "I could make a better game."
1. The graphics sux0rs.

I showed it to him using Guest, and he knew it wasn't a scam because I wouldn't do that to him. =)

4. They cant figure out how to make a game.

I showed him how to start. Maybe he didn't like the programming language, but if that's the case then he's just an idiot. =P

3. Its not 3D.

This was probably the main factor.

2. "I could make a better game."

Substitute "3D" for "better" and that's about what he was thinking. =)

1. The graphics sux0rs.

Related to the above two.

Around here the main reason people look at BYOND but don't stay is because they are too afraid as being labled "geeky" if they do anything on the net.

I introduced 2 people that didn't stay because of that, and the person who introduced me to it didn't stay because of that. I try to make them sound stupid for saying that so they would give it a chance, but they are just too chicken, or in other words, too afraid they might like it.

I have introduced 2, but I wasn't introduced, so I don't have a clue how I got here!
