Actually, no offense was taken. I should have said No, I've never read the "Ignore this post" thread..... I actually did ignore it the first time around, but saw that it ran on for quite a while. So now look what you have me reading! LOL
To quote one of my Aussie friends "They all need a cup o concrete and harden the f up." (you know who you are

)
In all seriousness (staying in the no-fun zone), that is why I stick to myself in the content creating world. I do what I want, when I want, and how I want, and don't have any of the associated drama that comes with it. Too many cliques, attitudes, and conflict. I'm a manager at work and I have that with my crew- I have two distinct factions that I constantly have one problem or another from. I don't need to put up with that crap here too. I have my own kids, 16 & 13x2 girls, and an 11 boy. I put up with them and their immature childish fights all day. I
am here to have fun. I watch all of the penny ante fights and bickering going on around here and say to myself "Really? Do we really need all of this here?" For the immature kids that can't get along with their "siblings" here at home, like I say to my own kids, "get the heck out of the house and go find someone else to play with. Go play with the neighbor kids." And I'm constantly telling them to grow a backbone because it is a big tough world out there. Maybe a little less Playstation and a little less Facebook and a little more "real" interaction with people.
Here's the trap of this community- building routes takes a LONG time. Building quality content takes a long time. Running trains takes a long time. That's why I don't have something new come out every day. I spend time with my wife and family. I enjoy being part of this community (however dysfunctional some members can be), but there is more to life than this. If your every free moment in life is the forums and Trainz to the point that you have nothing better to do with yourself than sit around and fight with everybody, I feel sorry for you. You need to GET A LIFE!
