You acted like no one offers a PaaS for MMOs (and gave it a ridiculous name).

I was talking something specifically like Lambda, but where pure functions could be injected into an already running game loop. The name was intentionally ridiculous. Also, you suggested that my proposal would suffer from the latency of lambda requests going over the network, which shows you didn't read my original comment.

with your cloud functions being called on triggers

Yeah, I pretty much covered that this was not what I was proposing, when I wrote "(You'd have to choose a particular architecture for synchronization with the client, of course. Also, before someone makes the mistake of assuming I'm as stupid as they are -- I'm not proposing that a function be transmitted, compiled, then evaluated at each tick over the network! Functions would be installed into virtualized servers.)" As far as I knew (which might be out of date) Photon was developing something that would be suitable for a persistent world MMORPG, but not quite ready with it. What I'm proposing would be suitable for an MMORPG, not just MMO game sessions.

PaaSes for MMOs with persistent worlds already exist.

Since you insulted me, I frankly don't care what further squirming you feel like doing to convince yourself you have a novel idea that serves any purpose that is not already served. And I'll gladly dance in the mud with the pig that is yourself and say I think someone who talks like yourself is probably actually pretty stupid, much too stupid to compete with those solutions. In fact, I don't think you have the braincells to rub together and even try implement an existing solution in an MMO, let alone implement a new one.

Have a nice life.

Actually I was so annoyed by your insult that I had to look you up Peter. You're every bit as pedestrian as I imagined, from your cringeworthy blog to your embarrassment of a GitHub profile.

Excuse me, but where ever did I say that I had a novel idea? I merely pointed out that 1) I wasn't talking about exactly what you thought I was talking about (and after 4 iterations, you still don't get that) and 2) you went and attributed to me a bad idea I had explicitly disavowed in the 1st place.

Actually I was so annoyed by your insult that I had to look you up Peter.

You're clearly a real class act and a careful reader.
