I think that's one of the problems here in aw and the ngs people go out of
there way to flame.
Good debate over any topic is good and enlighten, but when you never see the
same people attract the same protagonists of threads I do tend to consider
something is a foot.
Why can't people in this game try to learn about others cultures, its an
ideal medium for interaction and understanding, instead of using labeling
like it was a death wish and conduct vendettas or go out of their way to
create flaming.
To me some newsgroups out lived there use many years ago as they are used
only to try and discredit people and drive members out of aw. For instance
MR Bruce, like him or not was driven out and more.

The difference I think is one is asking a certain amount for their work,
whilst the other is asking from those that can afford it any amount/s
Personally its not up to me to "approve" any what any person does, its their
own thoughts. I personally give away so people can enjoy.

Yes I know servers can cost a lot to rent and purchase, plus bandwidth
costs. I was only to happy a few years ago when I had to make the about to
close my JPG yards because of circumstances that Linn offered to pay the
rental for a year to save many members work from destroyed and in many
Universes, as many still link directly to the jpg.

I took it as a generalisation and a observance, nothing more, nothing less.
For instance for example
I never seen so many multilevel marketing schemes and must be a confidence

Does not say X scheme is a con, nor does it say Z scheme is a con.
It says there is a proliferation of places asking for donations.

No country has a perfect record, Might as well call all German people
barbaric if used in this context for attempting to eradicate the Jews and
many other races. Look into History and all have something to be ashamed of.
This includes my own place of abode. There are many acts of disregard for
human rights today conducted in the name of many counties and there leaders.
The people of such countries can only use their vote to oust bad leaders and
learn.
If anyone has objections to any countries acts the simple way is to not buy
or support that countries products and services as in the end the taxes paid
go to support the actions conducted that people disagree with. And there is
the double standard, its ok to use the products that support the actions,
but are not prepared to stop using products as it interferes with their own
pleasure.
Interesting!

Hi Lioness
Good words
As I think I have stated many times in these G's but as normal seems to fall
on stony ground in History most countries have some terrible acts committed
against human kind. In the last century two world wars, genocide against
Jews and others committed in the name of a country. Indeed My own ethnic
origins was subjected to eradication of its culture and language and
persecution. Indeed many of my Irish ancestors left Ireland to the USA to
escape famine and persecution, some where even forced to leave their
homeland. If we all held past acts against present people this world sadly
would be a very poor place.
We learn from past mistakes and in refection consider that peaceful
co-existence may be a pipe dream but one hell of an concept to work towards.
Share and Enjoy

Same here, I was monitering the cpu usage when moving in aw anything apart
