I agree with Notyoueither's sentiment that the most virtuous course of action is to contribute with the aim of making improvements.
Failure and redemption are inescapable aspects of the human condition. I wish more people assisted efforts and others toward redemption rather than expecting them to stay mired in failure (and Yin, I'm not accusing you of that specifically, I'm just espousing my philosophy which nobody cares about anyway - it gives me something to do).
That being said, flames and trolls are the norm on the web, and I personally read over them without incorporating them. However, Yin's current signature espouses my view on him succinctly. He does make me laugh from time to time, and that's enough for me.
Oh, speaking of goober software - Yin, did you ever pay any attention to the whole Daikatana debacle? That was a helluva phenomenon from the ad where Romero was going to "make us his b**ch" to the release of a product that would have needed to sell over 2 million copies to turn a profit. Damn near wrecked the reputation of EIDOS, and I guess it did ruin Romero's, and I guess IONStorm's too. Is Romero flipping burgers now, or what? At least he can drive there in his hummer or ferrari...
Anyway, I believe...
I believe any sports team I route for regularly is doomed never to win a championship while I follow the sport.
I believe that you know you've gone to hell in the afterlife if you smell cat pee.
I believe in two-dollar words.
I believe that of all the wierd things humanity has attributed divine qulaities to, the sun remains the most logical, because without the gift of the sun, there would be no life.
I believe catfish is good eatin.
I believe I ought to get therapy for enjoying my prattling posts on these fora as much as I do.
