to gyms and defiant:

I meant that doing something as a hobby/passion and doing something for a living are two different things and that having to deal with the harsh realities of making music and/or chiptune for a living could be a very valid reason to "refuse money to write music for a living".

I also wasn't targeting anyone with that at all. Just that I would be reticent to do music for a living because it looks like it's fucking hell.

Doing it for fun is amazing, though.

I was speaking more along the lines of doing what I do now. Writing music I want to write and performing it, that sounds awesome. But I see where you're coming from and that could be awful but would probably be better than my current job.

yea i sure did play up the stereotypical 'internet tough guy' bit didn't i? yea nice out-of-the-hat phrase

and i'm dumb because? so i was a bit aggressive but it's because i can't take any of this chipmoney talk seriously. 'refuse another outlet of revenue' i like how everyone's a businessman trying to handle their business, man.

You're dumb because you give the impression that you would refuse money to write music for a living. I don't get it. Does the refusal of that money put you on some higher moral plane of artistry?

If Bright Primate don't want to host a con, maybe one can be grafted into @party, or if people like the idea about having it in a remote vacationing destination with dubious airport access I can start asking the hotels down here... PM if interested.

I don't think I've seen a single person say anything realistic in this thread yet.
