Nope. Not going to look for data, and not that going to admit that I'm wrong, or even that I'm right. Those things aren't as important to me as they are to you, and in the end, it doesn't matter anyway.

Quoted to exemplify the stupidity of many people who support The Shadow Chronicles and Harmony Gold as it exists today.

Seriously, folks. This isn't directed at Mr. Harkavy, but more at the population as a whole: If you consider it to be "fine" to go through life telling yourself misfounded visions of the state of matters, you're admitting that your entire existence is wrought with lying to yourself. Propagating this idea doesn't help, either, but far too many look to others for support, spreading it's use, in order to "confirm the validity" of such a practice. If only we could get more people to examine the facts before "deciding now and forever" the way things are, perhaps we could grow as a society.

It's a sign of getting old, truthfully. It's a psychological defense which effectively is made so that the self coaxes the ego by seeking-out confirmation that all the decisions one has made up to this point were correct, invoking a sense of false happiness. Too many people are afraid of evolution, the continuous upkeep of one's understanding in order to better understand the truth. Denial is sick and honestly pathetic to see, as a human being effectively denies his potential in order to make himself happy.

It makes me glad to see that this particular community is evolving. Nesonjacc and Brooklyn Red Leg have begun threads which do not necessarily beg for criticism of The Shadow Chronicles, but which display "what is" for all to see and analyse with the full of their brains--ultimately, seeking Truth--and this is a very good thing.

--because, as we now can see, the alternative is not pleasant.

a fan boy whose obsession with a 90 minute animated feature has brought him to the point where he condemns people who disagree with him as "sick," "pathetic," and (in an ironic twist) suffering from psychological problems.

Hey, you are what you are, man. I'm not saying anything that doesn't connect one's actions with the rest of his self. To use such an excuse as not being the same person all the time would be foolish; when you get yourself into text-based debates and then wuss-out by saying that it's not worth your time, you're probably the kind of guy who can't handle himself in a fistfight, or alternatively, would similarly denounce fistfighting as barbaric when, in the end, it's just as effective a way to settle an arguement as with words. One can't cut-and-run in a word-based fight and expect to not be labeled a coward.

But hey, you wanna cover your butt by insulting my diction, then that's fine. Truth be told, I'm an American and the ultimate beauty of the American dialect of English is in it's socially-accepted malleability. I make a damned good living off of using words however I see fit, and until it shows itself to be a problem, I would suppose that the critics are those who view the English language as a textbook study rather than an everyday creation of life as it continually evolves in this world.

What do I know, though. I'm just a "fanboy" who cares about Robotech, and unlike some, I'm not foolish enough to think that using the time of my life to read and watch a science fiction series should ever be wasted by the label of "fun" as, in the end, it's something I can learn and grow-from equal to the amount of effort I put in to benefit from it.

Oh. Yeah. I just ended my sentence with a preposition. And like the wonderful North American authors William Gibson and Chuck Palahniuk, it I rather enjoyed.

This answers another question... the posible sequell production did not go further away from --- WE WANT TO MAKE A SEQUEL-----

Thanks for the update, Nenad. You just saved me from having to listen through three hours of ~that voice~ in order to find the truly interesting stuff contained in his show. I always seem to get that "Haydon, he has returned to this world!" moment once a show--where all of the bullshit I sat through gives-way to a single moment of interesting information--but oftentimes it's not worth it.

But Tommy Yune...man, what can I say. It's like the man was built, bent-over a wooden horse, and injected with a ten-litre syringe filled with bravado. I'd like, for one moment, to ask for everyone's indulgence, here:

Philosophically, I'm a lover of Japanese practice. A failure is a failure and a success is a success; if one is skillful enough to paint a good picture of things, then he gives a good mask to the company, and that's a good thing in business. But if someone calls you out, you're at-least willing to give a deft admission of guilt...by remaining silent or some other non-verbal signal which humbly allows for everyone else to understand without you embarassing yourself. Every time that Harmony Gold steps-up to bat, they're about as far from this as possible, and at least for me, it's disgusting to see people who are blatantly adverse to giving the public an opening to try to understand that they're not exactly being truthful.

In the end, the doubters of the word of Harmony Gold get dubbed "idiots" and "extremists" because we're trying to perceive something that seems wrong but which is not obvious to everyone else, as if we're making stuff up. By now, we're cautious, even suspicious of anything Harmony Gold says, but people still think we "overreact" to things. Again, if Harmony Gold would just be a bit more open about what is the true state of things, everyone would at least understand where all of this doubfulness comes from.

I can't wait to hear what kind of lame-ass excuses all of the dumbassed-fanboys on the other side are gonna start using after months of "it was such a success that they're already making a sequel" bullshit.
