@transient: If there's something I admire in you, is your coolness. You must love the end of "The Life of Brian" with everyone singing "Always look on the bright side of life..."

I agree but the perseverance should be directed towards our work, not somebody else's products or a products community and I feel that's what brings the motivation levels down to many of the guys that are leaving FPSC.

Mate, this is the part I don't agree with you, but there have clearly worse problems than this that have not been dealt with also. Am I the only one that notices it? Maybe and that should be my fault.
I acknowledge that I feel confortable with a handful of people in this community, while talking to people from the indie scene outside FPSC it's the exact opposite, I don't feel confortable with a couple of them. The fact that FPSC targets a much younger audience has something to do with this and I know it's in part my own fault, since I can't expect people to be mature in this forums.
Amazingly was one of the "good guys" that led me to stop participating, go figure... not his fault, more of a "what's enough is enough" from me.

Hey you dog, you wrote this

Thank you very much for your words although I certainly don't deserve them, probably because I feel the same about someone else and I can't see myself in his position.
I took a different step and glad I'm glad I did. I am certainly doing a much better job while not being involved in FPSC, in fact for some reason, my worst programming errors occur after I post here.
On the other hand, and while FPSC is not my cup of tea I found out a wonderful TGC product: Dark Game SDK and it's amazing how everything is almost the exact opposite of FPSC, at least that's my feeling and opinion.
You will have a lot of support and fun around here even with people coming and going, the only part that worries me is the rudeness level. Just look at this thread, isn't it (at least until now) a prove that this will be here to stay? Future may be bright, depends on people like you and transient and the great oldies that still stick out there and all of them certainly more motivated (towards FPSC) and technically as able or more able than Skycubes or myself.
I'm pretty sure I know everything. Doubts are something rare in me and I am never wrong, as this signature can prove.
