[QUOTE="EricNoah, post: 319224, member: 4"] You know that little prayer you sometimes see on knick-knacks... That's what I'm trying to do, and what a lot of us are trying to do. I can't go back into the past and make things change. I can't be in California standing over Eric's shoulder and making him type faster. :) I can't do anything to get Fluid's forums up and running right now. And I just have to accept those things. There are things, of course, that we can do. We can help people with bugs that aren't actually bugs, with instructions, with creating downloads, that sort of thing. I think that's a productive use of time, it builds community spirit, and it helps us learn (every time I build a monster or a race I learn something new). Some may think that I lack the wisdom to know the difference between what I can change and what I can't. Heck, maybe ranting about "where's the patch" will in fact get the patch out faster, who am I to say? But to me, based on past experience and observation, it just doesn't seem like that tactic will work. [/QUOTE]
