[View Quote] You think this idea fun?
I find it an excellent example of internet-pollution.
Complete waste of time, space, effort and bandwith.
Ppl would better put their efforts in building cities and worlds that are
nice to look at.
How can building ever be taken serious anymore if ppl start to organize

Buy a Tammagotchi and keep Aw clean from these

P.S. If you don't know what a tammagotchi is: it's exactly what you
explained above, but then in RL and meant as a toy for little kids. Kind of
a little handheld thinggy with 2 or 3 buttons.

I know a lot of ways too.
Come to A'mart and visit my geno-sui-homo-cide-FAQ-shop!!!

Litlle example of 'extra security'
Drink 3 gallons of dissolved rat-poison. Then jump into a 300ft deep
snake-pit and then while falling use a shotgun to hit the bag filled with
nitroglycerine that you put in your mouth just before you jumped.
Make sure the bottom of the pit is made of glass so you'll fall right
through it into the ice-cold shark-pool that will be put under 220V 2minutes
after you jump.

Just joking ;-)

If it means nothing to you why do you make a problem of Rolu updating it
'only' once a week?
And of course Rolu thinks it means something. Otherwise he wouldn't bother
updating it at all.

Pffrt... As if the amount of updates says something about whether it means
something.
As you already said yourself (I think in an other reply): with programs
frequent updates rather indicate buggyness than quality-programming ;-)

Ok, that's another way to keep updates recognizable then.
Does that mean you have to criticize every other way??

Why do you always have to mix your message with arrogance and sarcasm?
Maybe you could be a bit more *con*structive...

[View Quote] In that case you wouldn't notice when new things have been added to the
list.
Version numbers on the opposite, are recognizable.
Unless of course you release a new version every day...

And maybe using the date as 'version#' *is* indeed a better idea.
But the way dean and eep bring it, it's not an idea but more like forcing
there opinion through.

Why would you be proud? There's a difference between confidence and
proudnes..
I think it's quite self-centered to be proud of every line you draw.. That
creates the sterotype of a 007-movie-kinda-psycho-person.

"Wow! Look what I did! Ain't I b-r-i-l-l-i-a-n-t !?!" <stares at the drawing

Personally, I don't see a need to be proud of everything I do. With most
things: it only starts meaning something as soon as yur not the only one who
appreciates the things you do.

Besides, I don't use the way I feel about my own deeds to critisize
everything someone else does.
What I mean: You can be proud without being destructive.

Yep it is. But I think the group of people who find your critisizing replies
constructive is relatively small.

Programming is just an example. I think you understand that; cuz u used the
