Lenny,
As more of an observer than participator for some time now, please
understand that I mean this in a kind and non-personal way:
Dude, you tend to overreact. Please relax a little more, and try not to
stress too much. Nobody wants you gone.
For me there have been many examples; the off-site slam against ++Lar and
the unrest with Admins are just two examples that come to mind right now. But
something I've noticed is a tendency to blow things a little out of proportion,
then issue a statement (like 'I quit') that you later come back to retract.
This is OK...people are all different in how they deal with change and
stress, and there's no right way. But I think you'll have fewer headaches if
many times you wait before posting; don't let the heat of the moment spoil for
you a community that is obviously important to you. Relax. Don't let something
become personal.
You can't please all of the people all of the time, but you can please some
of the people some of the time. In any community, that's all you can really
expect.
Peace, Buddy. Play Well. Have Fun. Don't give in to the power of the
Dark Side.
Peace and Long Life,
Tony Alexander
