If you think that people stay away from Avalon because of one or another person, you might be dreaming. Now if we really had someone like Jon at Turbine, I could see it. But everyone here is very human.
The main reason people don't feel they need Avalon is spelled D-E-N-I-A-L As in: I don't live in a big ball of mud I am not creating stuff that has already been created and therefore re-use is not a consideration. I am not as limited as some other people, and therefore can create better blahxxxthingies. It takes too long to learn COP etc etc etc. In AA we call this Terminal Uniqueness. I am special. My pattern can't be compared to others. Of course, we all realize that other people who have this disease are very stupid and should be pittied. Now in my case, that is different, but that is because I *really am* unique. (Get it?). This is also similar to addicts saying they aren't hooked and promiscuous teens saying they won't get pregnant. It's not about you. Sorry to disappoint. Denial. An easy concept. Of course, I could be all wrong on this, but heh. >People that mislead their Apache community peers about an (Apache) >solution just because a personal antipathy are doing (often serious) >damage to our performance as a group and should be exposed. > > Well, good luck with that. All we can do is keep our side of the street clean. It really doesn't seem productive to point out the trash on the other side of the street. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
