Yes, I am very concerned with the way people act. Maybe because I care too much or maybe as I was once told– I stand on a high horse looking down on everyone else. Either way, I’m glad that web pages are up and that once again Rock had the courage to let things go. A lot of people said a lot of nasty stuff. Half the server hates the other half. I really don’t think any of us are friends anymore. No one has the right to slander anyone… except for me because you know I rule like that 🙂 Seriously, I think that no matter who did what we have all done some pretty shitty stuff to each other. I’m seriously thinking about going elsewhere. I have the means now. I have the knowledge. Hell, I’ve been at this stupid Net stuff for over 6 years now. Everyone is so angry. What is everyone angry at? I’m not sure. I know this though: My life is good. I have a really silly job that haggles me, but at least I have enough cash to get by. I have an incredible wife that I love more than anyone else in the world. My family is great and totally cares about both of us. I have some nice friends who help out from time to time when they aren’t fighting with us. Digitalflood.com started out about unity, but I guess the crew just isn’t there anymore. I feel like I’m on my own now with the exception of my wife. The only person I really can count on is Azazel. Everyone else is busy pointing out who is doing what and meantime no one is doing anything worthwhile. There is so much out there that needs to be fixed and we resort ourselves to wasting our time arguing or doing stupid immature shit. There are people starving, being downsized, pushed around, and babies dying. No one seems to care. The RIAA is about to close down our shop and clamp down on our world, but no one cares. So go ahead do whatever you want… I’ll be on my horse on the hilltop waiting for the next crusade. I hope one day you’ll join me.
