- I don't like negative posts, but this has gone too far. I am sick of negative
- posts leveled against Anime Expo '93.
-
- I really don't think that RAA is the place for this kind of garbage. As far as
- I can tell, Anime Expo '93 is doing a fine job. I have yet to see any negative
- posts from the AX staff, yet we are told that these people are working against
- anime in America. The way I see it, these posts which attack Mike Tatsugawa,
- attack the Anime Expo staff, attack SPJA, and attack the credibility of AX 93
- work against anime in America. Let's face it, pettiness never contributes
- positively to any hobby. I personally know a few staff members, and they are
- working hard to avoid the negative tactic used by a handful of posters on RAA.
-
- In fact, if people get upset over Panda's flames, I would think that these
- personal and biased attacks against Anime Expo should also be wearing thin.
- I am fed up. I intend not only to go to Anime Expo, I also intend to help
- them out. I want to contribute positively to anime in America, not listen
- to yet another pointless flame war.
-
-
- I have seen inflammatory letters circulated regarding AX 93. I cannot for the
- life of me see how this contributes to anime. The age of mudslinging politics
- ended with the 90's. Too bad anime can't learn the same lesson.
