Confusion and Disillusion.

[Shockwave]

It's funny how things work out sometimes. I am happy as a coder in Surprise Productions, but today I heard some rumours about my group which I can't post here because I do not know if they are true.

I also heard that there is someone who is apparently angry with me about something which I never said.

This is all happening because of rumours and bullshit that is being talked about in IRC channels at the moment. It is not fair because i do not have an IRC client and can't respond in those channels.

But this is here for some guys who I know will read this, I am upset at these rumours and all I want to do is code. I am not interested in arguing with any sceners. I want to be everyone's friend. Why can't you be friends with each other too and stop your fighting?

It kills groups and productions.

Fuck that.

i had the same problem, that there has been bad rumours about my person and group over a long period... so i know how you think about and feel... i really dislike stuff like that too...  but sadly you cant change things... let the people make their own opinion, that is what and how i did it... if ppl want believe the shit they should... else they should think about...

[taj]

I feel sorry for you guys, I know how it feels.

You can switch the net off.  Just wait til it happens in real life.

I've said it before, and I'll say it again...some people are pricks.  You have to learn to ignore them.

You still have my sympathy.  It sucks when you try to do something good and people try to spoil it.

It seems that there might be some trouble ahead, but I still don't know if there really is any problem in the future for S!P, I have talked to Nuke and he told me to relax and wait until he speaks to TMB.

I like being in S!P damnit! I will be pissed off if something bad happens to the group. If I ended up without a group again I don't know if I would ever join another one.

Sometimes when a fight breaks out you have to take a side, even if you don't want to.

I can see how enigmatic this post is, I apologise for that.

I trust everyone here, but I know that other people browse this board who might take some remark I make out of context and I don't want to contribute to any harm that could occur to S!P.

Some people are born troublemakers, one guy in particular I wish I had never had anything to do with but when I first spoke to him he seemed ok.

Bah!

The DBF group had some productivity problems, but as far as I can remember, we never had internal problems like I am seeing now and everyone got along together.

Some people like to

I reckon Jim has the right attitude - just try and ignore it.  If some people want to believe lies then thats their problem.

[Positron]

I know that situation. It was one reason for me to quit the scene back in 1992.
I hope it will turn out well for you.

[Shockwave]

Cheers Positron, and I hope the same for the rest of the people around me who I regard as my friends too.

[Stonemonkey]

What Jim said. But it seems that even though they might (think they) have some reason, on the net peoples behaviour can be quite different to how someone would act in real life too.

[Ghost^BHT]

Good luck Shocky. I think Jim has the right perspective on this. Just do your thing, enjoy it, and let others indulge in their paranoia and pathetic little bullshit angry rants. If you study the posts on Pouet you certainly see the infighting and stupid flaming that goes on in the so called scene. So be happy with your family and friends everything else exists only if you let it.

[bikemadness]

These type of people have been spoilt and protected by their mothers. Now they are hiding behind their terminals.
The internet brings like-minded people together and, unfortunately, the not so good ones as well.
Some rumors are hard to deal with (I've had a couple), but they will fade when they don't get the response intended.
People get put on pedastals by some, others kick them off because they are.
This is a good place to go to on a bad day.

I feel better now.

[Shockwave]

Hehe, the shit is hitting the fan now, TMB, Teis, AM-FM and DaXX have either left S!P of thier own accord or have been kicked out, I con't work out what happened.

TMB and DaXX are trolling over at pouet...

Nb. the thread was not started by the real Nuke, it's a fake account of TMB I think.

OMG ... that catfight is going on over at pouet.net ... and IMHO they're acting really childish ... is this how scene goes nowadays?

Look, just found that cute picture few days ago ...

After all that shit, I'm not surprised :-(. If it helps, I dont think anyone will associate you with anything Rbraz, people know that you are one of the nice guys in the scene.

Chris

[Shockwave]

I echo Chris.

Rbraz, you are one of the most genuinely nice people in the scene, people will definately not equate what happens between s!p and ravebusters with you.

I am so sorry that all these childish posts were put on Pouet last night and I will tell everyone for the rercord that if I find out that any member of S!P contributed to those posts I will be leaving S!P.

They were childish and hurtful and I want no part in them.

[taj]

Also let me know. I just agreed to do a 4k for S!P but if that nonsense on pouet is a S!P member, the deals off.

I feel it's my obligation to say to you all what I was working on. What really hurt is to see such good project going into trashcan

Project: Music Disk - Remixes 2
Coding Part: ~02 months of coding, around 3000 lines of C/OpenGL code.
Code status: 99% done.
Actual status: Closed!

[Shockwave]

That is a huge shame.

Wouldn't Ravebusters release this as a last product as it is so near to completion?
Or if not, why not take your project to another group and get new gfx and music?

[Clyde]

That looks utterly amazing Rbraz dude.
And I'll echo what Shockwave says, a huge shame.
