What if org had to shut down?

anyway, my two cents.

How about "I sympathize with you?"....ok that doesn't work either and isn't relevant...Hmm..."I question how much fun you are having?" No that sounds equally mean...I have no idea...but I see your point and again, sorry about that.

I didn't mean to imply it that way, but at the same time, as I said earlier, it's hard for me to see such motivations and can't see it from that POV (which well...everyone has a problem with...seeing thing through other's eyes that is). Regardless, I hope everyone understands what I was trying to say and it's all good.

My main point was that I can't understand the motivations of the person who makes AMVs only because the .org exists and they'd stop making them if it went down. Not to say one way or "right" or "wrong," but I don't understand it or how they can be having fun. Again, sure, it's quite possible they are, but *I* don't understand it.

Kosher?

thanks flint, but i don't think any feelings will get scratched.

anyway, i think i understand you a little better now, dwchang. anyway, ..."I question how much fun you are having?" i don't think that's being mean, it's being skeptical and i think people can undersatnd that.

Consider it a date.

A date? That implies I have to spend money on you before I can...

By the way, that was a joke. I know some random female is going to get angry at me now

dwchang and trythil. Your holier-than-thou attitude is really starting to bug me.

Just because everyones motivation for making AMVs isn't exactly the same as yours doesn't give you the right to go around patronizing them. Who cares why they do it, as long as they do it and have fun in the process.

And before you say something like, "Oh but they only do it for recognition" or somesuch, really, thats okay. Again if they enjoy doing it, the outside force that actually gets them moving is pretty null.

So please, get off your soapboxes.

J-0080.

I apologize if you think I was patronizing, but I don't see where you're getting this holier-than-thou stuff from.

Basically it sounds like you're talking down to them, because they have other reasons than you do. You might not of ment it to come out that way, but thats what it seems like.

Well, I can tell you that it's certainly not meant that way.

What can I say -- I'm not good at mincing words. I'm no diplomat...
