@@Caelum @@eezstreet @@mrwonko @@Circa @@AshuraDX @@Barricade24 I think I deserve a public apology by both the staff and by members of the community for the way my person and my good intentions were treated in the following thread: https://jkhub.org/topic/9187-autism-acceptance-month/ By no means did I bring up treating autistic people with medicine as a topic in the discussion (as claimed by the attending staff member in closing), and Autism Acceptance Month is a perfectly respectful, official celebration of autism and people on the autism spectrum. My intentions were to raise understanding and acceptance of autism and autistic people in this community, not to seek adoration for myself (as implied, again, by the same said staff member). You can find more information about Autism Awareness/Acceptance Day and Month here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_Autism_Awareness_Day http://www.autismacceptancemonth.com/ I was not aided in this effort, but met with an overwhelming offensive from the community, and eventually from the staff, that is making me seriously think twice whether I should really remain a part of this community. I have provided plenty of information about this event from the start, so to say that I haven't informed people about the nature of the event, and that I haven't tried to direct the thread to a more positive outlook (as it is supposed to reflect the celebration) would be a lie. This is not the first time this has happened, and it is obvious to me that there is an overall vulgar, offensive, and aggressive behaviour in the community's approach towards topics started here (regardless of content and context) where I share my sincere views, or dare to show an exploitable weakness, and that whatever I propose is being directly debated just for the sake of debate, without tact, and without consideration to my person, my feelings, my views, and my beliefs. And I expect that likely other members of this community are experiencing similar treatment. I want to put a public warning out for this. I want everyone to know that this is not acceptable behaviour. Not here, not anywhere on the net or offline. Respect each others' views, feelings, beliefs, experience, and standing, and don't engage in acts of cyber-bullying in any form, for which you can be held legally liable. (Don't worry, you're not as "untraceable" as you think...)

Star Wars Episode VIII Discussion
Cerez replied to NumberWan's topic in Star Wars Franchise Discussions
Canon Blight I look forward to seeing historical Dubrovnik as a Star Wars stage -- it should be quite beautiful. Also, very much looking forward to seeing the trailer (finally), and seeing what they've been working on, and how they've changed their approach/ways (if at all). -
She will return as a zombie and eat them all!!! Mwuhhahahahaha! Raaaaar! (I'm sorry, Dave. I'm afraid I've just spoiled the big twist. ) (HAL: "I'm sorry, Dave. I'm afraid I can't do that.")

If you have a dual graphics card, make sure that ModView is using the proper one (NVIDIA or AMD, not Intel!). You can usually switch tell the program which one to use in the NVIDIA or AMD settings app.

Where were you when the Star Wars broke?
Cerez replied to the_raven's topic in Star Wars Franchise Discussions
Despite the godly things others may believe of us, at the end we're all people, at times naive, and prone to mistakes, that's all I can say. Bruce Lee died because he happened to accidentally mix temporary medication for his headache with the pain-killers he was on (due to his back injury). We may never know the whole truth about George's sale, but I think it pays to give him, and anyone, really, the benefit of the doubt. I did the same with Disney, except they proved me wrong... on more than one occasion... -

I sincerely don't think I am overreacting -- please don't dismiss my genuine thoughts and feelings on this so rudely -- and is there a difference whether someone's torn down something on your outside or inside? I would say the inside counts more... wouldn't you? What if I told you that all the stories you loved growing up, they're all invalid now, and no-one cares how you feel or what you think. Even go as far as to tell you that you're no longer a fan of them because you don't like what's been done to them, and the stories that have replaced them. I bet that would make you feel real good. What if I told you that these were all the results of the actions of one company, and the messages and attitude they are promoting and spreading. How would that make you feel? I didn't know that feelings and thoughts had an expiry date... I don't think that's a "lot" at all... In fact they've done as little as they could for the fandom, and most things that they've done so far have been empty publicity stunts. Just consider how Leia's and Tarkin's appearance will look like in 7 years' time in Rogue One (if anyone even talks about that movie by then)... I would have preferred more work, more fleshed out characters, more authenticity, better original stories instead of the lame, template-based imitations they have produced. Yes, this is my opinion/outlook, and not everyone will agree with me, but it is valid just the same. Please don't tell me I'm "overreacting". -

He was hoping that someone like Disney, with their established good reputation, will be able to do so much more and build upon what he started, faithfully. Disney has changed, however. They're not what they once used to be... And it's no crime to want to profit on your product/creation. How you go about it is the question in terms of morals.
