¶3 FRIENDSHIP IN THE SCENE.
¶2By PEARL of PARASITE
¶1 I wrote this article because
there are so many articles about
friendship in all the mags present.
I'll mainly just want to share some
of my opinions with all you guys out
there, so here we go....
Friendship is a weird thing.
Especially when your "friend" is a
guy who lives ¶3800 ¶1kilometres away
from you and you have never talked
to him and you don't even know how
he looks like. How can you so be
friends? I think the answer is very
simple actually, because when you
have written so many letters to
eachother I guess you feel you know
the guy quite good. If he writes to
you about everything, like his new
girlfriend, his new group, problems
at home etc. and you think it's
cool if he have made some nice
things, and I'm not only thinking
computing, I guess I'd say that this
guy was my friend.
I will give you an example on the
difference between the success-elite
guy, and the friendly one.
(Appearantly from "real" life the
latter one.) I'm a swapper and a
packmaker as well, and since I just
joined a new group, I didn't have
any pack-menu. So I wrote to one of
my friends in Germany and asked him
if he would like to code a packmenu
for me. He told me he had a lot of
school-work (I hate it) to do, so he
was quite busy. Still, he said he
would do it as fast as possible.
Later on I got the menu, and I was
ofcourse very happy.
Me and my friends do also not
only write about computing!
Actually I think that some of the
letters I get is quite funny and
interesting to read! Oops, I think
I fell off the track now. Back to
the examples: The other example is
that my former group (yes, Angelica
that is) was going to make a diskmag
and so we needed a news-editor
(ofcourse!). So I called one of my
oldest contacts, who have over 100
contacts, and therefore I thought he
was very good. But when I called and
asked him, the first thing he did
was to laugh. I asked why he was
laughing and he answered that he
could be the news-editor in every
mag in the scene, so why should he
choose a newcommer of all the
opportunities he'd got? I then
asked him about friendship and his
answer to the question was:"¶3FUCK
FRIENDSHIP! I DON'T CARE BECAUSE I'M
FAMOUS!¶1" I really hate that arrogant
behaviour. That sure is exactly the
opposite of friendship! I don't say
that every scene-guys should jump
around in weird clothes and give
flowers to everybody, I just say
there are friendship in the scene!
I sure think so.
¶2 I'm really tired now and I just
want to sleep so I will end this
little article now. I just wrote
this little piece of .... because I
am tired always have to hear that
there are no friendship left in the
scene.... I would be happy if there
was some guys with the same opinion
as me, who would like to write to
one or another discmag present to
share my opnions.....
