Hi Eric, I guess you missed this next part which appeared in that same thread
only a couple posts later:
"I'm just rambling, I guess. Lugnet in general is a pretty cliqued community, no
need to single out the Mecha builders."
So sorry to disappoint you, but no criticism was directed directly at you (in
that particular post - if you want to do a search on JLug, you may find that I
have said things along the lines of "he's a prick, but he certainly can build
robots" - and you might also see the context too).
I entered the Iron Mecha contest simply because I had never built a mecha
before, and I think I did okay. Before the contest, I had never posted to
lugnet.build.mecha, and I probably won't again, since mechas aren't really my
thing. I appreciate that someone went through all the trouble to have the
contest, and I knew I would never win. But damn, at least one reply to my entry
post with feedback (even along the lines of "you suck, go back to building
Duplo") would have been nice.
I think it's kinda sad that you or anyone else would get bent out of shape by
something like this. But shoot, JLug is a group of people who aren't interested
in taking things very seriously, and I believe that's why you didn't last very
long over there. Well, as they say, it takes all kinds.
That's all I really have to say on the matter at this time.
