Well, the reason I scratched that out is because I didin't want to offend anyone, but yeah. Given the varying qualities of newbies (some good, some bad) does not at ALL depend on senior members breathing down on the youngins' necks, because of a minor age difference.

In a way, we do also wind up with oldies vs oldies, and the outcome will always be the same: unpredictable. And I think it's time that unpredicability should slow down for a bit and think about "what's happened in the past few years on this site?"

For example: Even though I mostly lurk now, I had a bit of a rough start on pixeltendo, and then, I still have a hard time "fitting in" with the more advanced memberbase. I know it's not right to judge someone because of one's age, but it's the way we act.

I myself want to get my head out the creative gutter and actually create something that me (and probably everyone else) can enjoy, hence I'm always looking for new ways to escape that box that's been holding me back for how long?

I'm not the best gosh-darn member here on this site myself, and I bet most of my compatriots here are most likely from another site I stalk. Sure, I've heard stories of TSR's harshnessness, but I think it's finally time for me to let this monkey off my back, figuratively speaking.
