Running a search, Luda has made some very nice levels. His cliffwork is beautiful (much like my own is I would say, though in terms of gmaps I often simplify the cliffwork somewhat to look better on a map image). I think the difference is that I don't often make levels much for show. His Classic levels a little down the page are not something that I personally like. They're simple but not quite Classic.

I would also say his detail is severely lacking. It comes down to a matter of taste though, because each person likes their own detail style. Luda is probably more imaginative than I am, but I only ever really make outdoor levels and I like to focus on cliffs and detail. Besides, most of my current work is Classic styled - not intended to overwhelm people with orgasmic delight

Please don't tell me you're basing somebody's time and efforts on GraalOnline based on these brief and recent forums. There existed for a long time a GraalOnline community long before these forums. Still even now, the majority of the community has virtually nothing to do with these forums.

Your scope is narrow.

I don't get the criticism. I'm not familiar with Luda's work (because I only play on and off in phases, hence I am not always "in the loop") so to get an idea of his work to return someone's criticism I used what I could to get a brief idea. Obviously what few levels he has posted are not the sum total of his levelling ability but it gives me a small idea. Great work for pointing out the blatantly obvious.

For the record, I've been playing since 1.28 so yes, I know these forums are nothing to base the total of someone's Graal experience on. It looks to me as though you've based my own experience on my forum account join date. If that is so, your own scope is narrow.

I never looked at your forum account join date and don't know how you came to the conclusion you did.

The forums are inconsequential.

You still haven't explained the point of your original criticism.
