Dear Hysek,
I hope you are still looking in here an read this. I communicated
with you briefly a year or so ago. I told you then and I'll
re-iterate it now. You have to have thick skin to post in the
newsgroups. You can never please everyone. You've got to post
becasue you want to and not get wrapped up in the politics of the
group.
99% of the people watching the group are enjoying your generaous
contributions will never say a single work. The other 1% fall into
several other categories. Some will leave a brief note thanking you
for your posts. Others will offer sincere advice. Some will make
requests for something they missed or something they'd like. Others
will complain becasue it's "too complicated" and they are feeling left
out". (Usuallly a little patience will work for them) Finally, there
a a few that have no interest in the group and just want to make
trouble. They are the ones running the "negative campaign ads". It's
just like anything in this world.
When you post, NO ONE ELSE gets to dictate how or what you post.
That's your business and only your business. You're always welcome to
ask for suggestions, but in the end it's you that get to make the
decisions. The world is far from perfect and you must take the bad
with the good. When a post looks negative, you gotta shrug your
shoulders, delete it, and move on.
I sincerely hope you decide you can continue here. You've been a
breath of fresh air and I thank you.
Regards,
George
