Well, put it like this: you spend a whole shitload of time and money to arrange a christmas party for your friends which you really never get to see, so it's all kind of special, but then your drunk uncle shows up, gets up on the table and starts calling them names. Most of your friends just looks down and whisper "Oh lord, this is embarrasing.." while some find it sort of funny, but still sort of sad. It was sort of like that :)

organized on xmas, the cesspool of capitalism, where everyone tags along celebrating it for the sake of being the only time of the year where everyone gets together, despite the fact that it should be whenever we want it to be. i wonder why would any self-proclaimed anti-capitalist drunk uncle whos been trying to get the family together outside xmas complain indeed. so annoying.

I'm confused, does said uncle have a cat?

so in the end this fundraiser has one purpose: paying for a drunk uncle's trip to south-america?

I've been staying out of this discussion, but just wanted to remind people that there's a real human being with an actual story behind this. Please keep that in mind.

And a cat as well!

I almost backed you, then I remembered what a aloof cock you were towards me via e-mail. Remember, there was a real human being with an actual story behind that, too. Please keep that in mind.

Neoneye: you can view it as the latest in "a series of unfortunate events", in which the protagonist is unaware of the unfortunateness, ess ess, es, something.

thanks for the explanation. good its not me.

Gloom: I know your christmas party example wasn't a realistic comparison, but you are suggesting that a) there was name-calling, and that b) NVScene was meant for your (European) friends and that certain Americans were not welcome. I know that's exaggerating, but that's how some of us from this side of the pond could interpret it. And what does this have to do with "the US scene is struggling"?

Maybe I'm bringing out a bit of drama that was mostly forgotten, but, some people here are quick to judge others based on a few pouet posts.
