"I don't usually post here but I do have something to say. I have been in
AW
since January 1996. I recently bought my own world and came here to learn
and
ask about object making. I never once asked any questions here. Why? I
was
intimidated by some of the posts made by Eep. I do read most of the posts
here
but after seeing some of the new people being attacked I decided not to
bother
posting. I just wonder how many others are out there who won't post here
because of the intimidation. This is the "community" NG but it doesn't feel
like a community when new people feel intimidated before they ever post the
first post."

"Show us a eep post that helped someone.
Yes eep has contributed in the past... the past is not now.. Every post eep
has
entered, has had either a putdown, cursing, or name calling attached to it.
I
fail to see how that helps the community. Don't give me this crap about 'he
means well..." or "thats just the way he is..." etc. He hasn't
"contributed "
anything. Except bitterness and anger at AW and anyone who says something
that
he doesn't agree with. For those of us who enjoy AW and the community, we
are
asskissers in eeps eyes."

Don't diss 300000+. 310000+ is new, 300k is not. My cit, 305004 has existed
for 2.5 years. AW is how many years old? Almost 6?

Of all the girls he wish she was, and he means everything to her. Her

Anything, about her... She's just the flavor of the week.

Oops, 2.5 was the answer to #25 on my homework. Cit is 1.5 years old, I was
tourist for another good year and a half. That's 3 years. Hardly a newbie if
you add tourist and cit. Anyway, age is not what makes a newbie a newbie. If
you know your way around and can fend for yourself, you're not a newbie.

In response to your first post: People who are not confident in what they're
posting SHOULDN'T post at all in a newsgroup. Because if it's not Eep, it
will be another. And if you really have that low of self esteem, you need
some help. :) If you're not confident enough to defend every word you're
typing (like you are, btw), then you shouldn't post. Period. :)

In response to the second one: Personally, he's helped me. He's helped me to
better formulate my ideas when posting. His AW page does help you get a
sense of AW from another perspective. And technically, he is a genius that's
willing to share it to someone who can "prove" themselves to him. Cocky?
yes. Informative however? still yes. :)

This is a serious question..asked because of me "newbie" status in this
newsgroup...If I am truly wanting to ask a question to which I don't
know the answer...what better place to ask than where many knowledgable
users can see it? It can't be a self esteem issue-I would already be
telling you I don't know something. There would be nothing to defend.
Feeling the need to "prove" myself before I can ask it or be answered
would be showing low self esteem..and also a catch22 to the extreme. I'm
not sure if I believe completly the saying "The only stupid questions
are the ones not asked" but I think it might fit in the above scenario.
