Speak Truth to Power

[Macken]

On one hand i feel the people in charge are so talented and i am jealous a little of their ability to program. I look up to them in that regard.

But, on the other hand, i wonder just how ignorant you would have to be to not understand that awards and recognition are paramount in life.

Did you not get a ceremony and diploma for graduating kindergarten? Did you not get a ceremony for High School or college. Did you never get any badges rewards or recognition for any group you have been a part of? Ever heard of the Academy Awards? Grammy's? People's Choice? Yearly meetings where those of a group who were outstanding were recognized? Ever won a trophy? Ever made the cut for a sports team? Ever won a sports league and went to the awards ceremony?

Have any of you ever been recognized for anything ever in your life and experienced the emotion and feeling of satisfaction of your accomplishments?

How can you be so talented in one highly specialized area yet be so ignorant about simple life lessons?

You can continue to make the colossal mistake of catering to those who won't play long anyway, or you can recognize that catering to those who are weak encourages apathy and amateurism and that fact that they whine and cry means they will just whine and cry about something else after you pacify them.

Keep catering to those crybabies and you will look ignorant to more than just those of us who are wise.


Believe it.
