Lets be clear about this - there are three reasons why things between Nexus and many of the other members here are so hilariously inflammatory on such a consistent basis:

1. Nexus is a bit touchy.

2. A number of us here are are cnuts (and probably out and proud about it, lets face it).

3. This is the internet and is subject to the law of escalating stupidity not witnessed elsewhere in the universe.

Frankly, it used to drive me to distraction - now I prefer to see it as a kind of healthy sport.

If you want to talk about conferences, more entertaining to present than be listened to be honest, trying to see if you can convince people with 20+ years in an industry that you can tell them what they should be doing

Get on the conference.

I went on a training course the other week. Drove to the south and stayed in a hotel on company expenses. But the main thing was learning new stuff and realising that I really have to brush up on my skills with networking.

its funny cause nexus gets so wound up about it. if he didnt react nobody would antagonise him

may i add that i hope that never happens, because its so much fun winding him up

Quote from: Clockd 0NeI think more people need to post whats going on in their lives to waffle. It gets people chatting and busies up the place!

perhpas but wouldnt that cause it to deviate from a place for irrelevant stuff thats a bit too lowbrow and/or immature to appear in either SC or GD and turn it into a set of personal blogs.....

I really dont see where the problem came from. No one said anything really malicious or nasty or cocky, it was just a few funny posts before nexus got all sensitive. No doubt thisll turn into another "thats it, Im leaving" things sooner or later and well be down another member.

Shame.

I would agree with this tbh.

No one here has that inflated an ego to have it become a personal blog.

Remember maximusotter posting us random tidbits of nonsense from his days and all the tasty recipes and pictures? Those were the days. That was good time waffle. Not the influx of meme reposts.

That is not true, I will not have even posted in a thread and you as an example will just mention me and have a good pop at me. You and couple of the well knowns have done that more then once.

You seem to be in possession of a boundless youthful enthusiasm that rubs people up the wrong way, as charming as it is. Its nothing personal though, bear in mind most of us on here are jaded miserable bastards who seize any opportunity to engage in a bit of banter.

There are plenty of "bar humbug" moments, I do not mind that, I know some guys here are right old miserable gits Its when they get catty, pointless and childish when they are bored, and often got nasty. Some now gone but some still here as has been discussed before have basically bullied people off these forums, Nice people gone too. I get rilled like anyone, I do not stand and take it like some (which I know annoys the people doing it and thus do it more to try and "win") but I am over them. I think as you say they are miserable old gits and find it rather sad more then anything these days.

Posting to say it was cool.
Saw CS 5 stuff. Only 20 of us including the Adobe people
