Planning continues behind the scenes for ZookiMelt '10.
The webpage is moving along and tentative discussions are proceeding. Mostly, we are all working on getting through the upcoming holiday seasons so that afterwards, serious attention can be given to how this event will be the Mother Of All ZookiMelts.
Remember - ZookiMelt '10 will, unfortunately, not be affiliated with iZook.com. If you want to volunteer or have ideas for ZookiMelt '10, feel free to email/PM either purevil71, redbeard or ack!
Keep watching here and on many of the popular Zukin' forums for details as they become available!
My Pet Peeve...
As some of you may have noticed, when I post I tend to display rather advanced writing skills. Stuff like correct spelling (mostly), the correct use of punctuation and proper sentence construction. These skills, when properly used, make posts easy to understand and therefore very informative.
It really ticks me off when I run across the following posts:
A post with zero replies because the writer was so bad at communicating that nobody wanted to get involved in a thread that, for all intents, would turn out to be pointless in terms of trying to communicate with the original poster. Often such threads turn ugly because the Original Poster took offence at the comments of others concerning his communication skills.
Posts with words like "axel", "break" and "Samuria". Gee, did these posters actually make it to High School??? If you can't spell even the most rudimentary words assocated with our hobby, maybe you need to get that GED or take a Remedial English course at the Community College! "Please help me change my timming belt." "Can I put a 351 Windser in my Samuria???" If you don't want to take the time to express yourself clearly, maybe you should look elsewhere for help...
Post replies written by Pinheads. Pinheads - to me - are anyone who posts to see his words on the itnernet. Pinheads usually have nothing constructive to add to a thread. Often, they post incorrect information declaring it to be Gospel. Sometimes Pinheads don't know how to spel or put together a decent sentence - which amplifies incorrect drivel they spout. Also, Pinheads NEVER admit to being wrong.
I feel much better with that off my chest...
