WarSmash 3 Campaigns Site!

Posted 5/23/2026, 5:34:40 AM
Welcome!
This Friday evening as I left to have dinner, I asked the computer to rebuild the WC3C website for me. Got back later in the evening and here it was -- hallucinated into existence by Claude Code. We truly live in interesting times. I did not write software to bring this hallucinated website into existence -- I merely asked the machine. They called this "vibe coding," but I have lately faced substantial enough pressure at my job to utilize this that perhaps in time it will be the only form of "coding" that is allowed.
I understand if some users may feel a certain degree of resentment about this action. These AI systems have many interesting implications for our society, and some of them may be terrible.

This website, at the moment, is not intended to be the official forums of Warsmash. The official Warsmash forums are located at Hive Workshop which has gracefully elected to host Warsmash there.

Instead, I anticipate this forum may serve two purposes:
- A demonstration of the possibility that AI may vibe-code back into existence WC3C in some form, if that were desired
- A place for me to make posts that Hive staff have no moderation for so that I could provide some unfiltered Retera rants or other thoughts
- Perhaps in the future this will become a space where we can mod the officially sanctioned Warcraft 3 Legacy 1.29 or something, targeting Warsmash as the launcher, who knows, we'll see. (Although you could just use Hive Workshop)

But at the end of all your progress, when you have it all, did you accomplish your dreams?

This website sucks major s@#t if it doesn't have the original WC3C content. What's the point? You're defacing the Wc3C to make even more personality cult of yourself? wtf?

And you used AI to do it because you couldn't even be bothered to do it yourself...

Am I allowed to swear at you on this site? what are the site rules? do you even follow GDPR?

Moonlight shines upon the guilty, and the innocent alike... my precious!

He's kind of got a point, @Retera.

Have you considered some sort of credits page?

"ooohhh, claude, my buddy boy claude please make it possible to ban someone on my website, ooohh hows does this technology work"

Man hiding behind AI to pretend to be great does not equate to greatness!

So, actually Claude already thought of that. This seems to be a function that we already have. Would you like me to test it out?

Right, well, I'm not going to do that, but now we have an AI-generated summary in "About" at the bottom of every page on this site in the footer!

Thanks Claude!
