Greetings to all visitors
iCCup!
I received hundreds of personal messages with questions: “Where did Barney go? Where is he? And will he come back, and is everything all right with him?!”. The desire of users is the law!
Now we will find out about everything, in order.
You've been asking for a long time. And this day has come! Today we will chat on various topics with a respectable person and, most importantly, just with a nice person, namely - iCCup.BarneyG
iCCup.RuNne[R]:Barney, hi! First of all, I am glad to welcome you and thank you for agreeing to chat a little about everything openly in front of our audience.
iCCup.RuNne[R]:First I will designate. For those who suddenly, perhaps, do not know you at all and hear about you for the first time. What's your name and how long have you been on the platform?
iCCup.BarneyG:Hi, my name is Alexey, I've been on the platform since about 16-17. Not counting a break of several months at the very beginning.
iCCup.RuNne[R]:Let's fast forward to the distant past and remember a little. Under what circumstances did you get on the platform at all, maybe friends advised?
iCCup.BarneyG: Yes, everything is very banal here. I was playing with a friend, and since none of us had a Pro acc, it took a lot of time to start. I just came for caps on the Pro acc
iCCup.RuNne[R]:Tell me, how are things going in your life in general, what are you doing now?
iCCup.BarneyG:I work as a backend developer. To be more precise, I make websites for online stores (CMS Magento 2)
iCCup.RuNne[R]:How has your life changed over the last year and a half? You can briefly. You can expand it as you see fit.
iCCup.BarneyG:Oh. I don't even know how to answer, a difficult question. Probably I am no exception and many people have had a reassessment of values. There is no short answer here..
iCCup.RuNne[R]:Of course, I can't help but ask. One of the most frequently asked questions is: “Why did you decide to retire from the platform?” Tired?
iCCup.BarneyG:No, it's very simple. Lack of time. We had enough guys who are interested in this and they want to do it all. Let them try, they will definitely be more useful Than afk I
iCCup.RuNne[R]:If globally, in your opinion. What is missing from the platform today? What could be improved, on which side of the work to focus? Exclusively from the point of view of a simple man in the street.
iCCup.BarneyG:Any platform has a place to grow and iccup is no exception. If there were unlimited resources on the iccup (time / money / hundreds of developers willing to work) - I would rewrite the clan system and would be more busy with Сustom Maps. But this only works if there are unlimited resources, this is important. I talked to developers, I saw what they were doing, and there are big problems with time there, it's just not enough for anything. (p.s. leesang, Makselpr <3)
iCCup.RuNne[R]:What are your plans for the future, are there any thoughts about a possible comeback?
