Propaganda 11 ch06
From C64 Diskmag Wiki
FEEDBACK FEEDBACK ________________________________________ After the release of Propaganda #1O some time back, I noticed some pretty funny occurences I will take up here. It seems I pushed some sort of a button thru that release, pissing some of, and attracting some. You can only be wise enough to take a stand, and consider us either way you prefer. One thing I do like, is the expansion of diskmagazines. It seems the loss of SHOCK and others somehow pulled the trigger, and urged you to start publishing new magazines, since we at PROPAGANDA were so determined in what we were doing. The more magazines that appear, the more competition there will be - competition serves better magazines, focusing on the reality of the scene. Therefore it is my firm belief the magazines will get better. (again) Funny thing, however, is that one certain magazine consider themselves to be very good. In fact they are, but they have a very wicked attitude. Ladies and Gentlemen, I'm talking THE PULSE here. Sure, I agree, it is a fine magazine you're doing, but at the expense of others. You have a tendency of throwing crap at PROPAGANDA, when you in fact should be concentrating on your own work. Sure, criticts are valuable, and endorse you to take it further, but I wouldn't want to call it critics, slagging down on a mag by telling the crowds that 'WE ARE BETTER', 'THEY ARE DELAYED AGAIN - WE ARE NOT', 'THEY ARE FAKING THEIR VOTES' ETC. When it all comes out, it doesn't really matter whatever you write about us, or if you dislike the way we treat the news of the scene (only talking about the top), as the crowd one day will pick a favorite. They will pick a favorite, not based on what crap the magazine writes about their competitor, but based on the quality of the magazine and its contents. In other words, what it delivers. If you have a problem with us, or fear us as the competitors we are, that's ok, but dear PULSE-staff, it's wise to deliver proper critics instead of a childish bunch of nonsense. That's what it is. Childish, and goddamn ignorant in my eyes. We have nothing against you. We welcome a good magazine with open arms. But do write, basing it on your own abilities, not on ours. .. >< Furthermore, I heard some nasty tounges not that happy about the way we treated the news last time. It may very well be that you tended not to like it, but we prefer it that way. We take up and discuss the groups and events that are worth mentioning. If not, we do not. As simple as that. Otherwise, we experienced very positive reactions from the last issue, and we are urging you to keep them reactions coming. We are here for you - you are not here for us to have a reason to put out a magazine. Yours Sincerly, Newscopy/Genesis*Project October 18th, 1993.
