scene-fears
-------------
yo friends!
as usual i am here to write my
thoughts about some points that i
try to catch like in every issue.
but this time,it is not an artic-
le.i'll only try to compare some
fears that we have in normal life
with the ones that we have in nor-
mal life.
no,no,no,no! when i say 'scene
fears' don't misunderstand me!this
time i won't talk about 'the scene
is dying.this fears everybody etc'
this is another subject.but let's
start with it.
what is fear? with a simple de-
finition,it is the thought of a
force which can give you harm or
cuse something bad happen to you.
it is a part of human-being.in e-
very section of our life,we have
fears.at childhood we afraid from
thunders in the rain,darkness,bad
guys trying to grab you, doctors,
etc.in our youth and wetness all
the time we have many types of fe-
ar.
in our scene-life we also have
some fears like in our normal-life
did you ever think about it? per-
haps it is not only fear but a
mixture of fear,excitement,suprise
etc.but it is sure that you feel
much different.do you ask when?
then go on.
think that you are in a crac-
king group.you find a mega cool
original game that has not been
cracked by anyone before.with a
great feeling in your body you try
to crack it as soon as possible.
then you try to send it to u.s for
fixing.all of your work is for a
first-release of a cool game.but
while you are doing all of these
you all the time are worried about
if another group will do it before
you.cause of these thoughts you
try to be faster.this is all the
same when you have a chance for a
first-release.perhaps by time you
used to have first-releases so you
don't give a damn too much.but it
isn't like that for a normal-speed
cracking group.just think about
yourself.the main point is that
you afraid because of the thought
of someone will do it before you.
this it not same in coding but
it is related.someone finds a new
effect and shows something new.
then another one does a better one
and this goes on like that.if you
are also a coder and you think
that you can improve this effect
then you start coding immediatly.
you try to work more as you have a
care that someone will break this
record before you.this time again
yo afraid from another guy who is
faster than you.as like as in wild
west,you will survive in this sce-
ne if you are fast enough.
time causes on some-fairs on
swappers and mag-editors.nothing
can able to stop time while these
guys must finish the works on ti-
me.a swapper mostly afraids to be
dropped so he tries to be faster.
also problems with the post-offi-
ce,police and money effects a
swapper.a mag-editor must be quick
as the mag-stuff that he got will
be worn out.so they feel the fear
of time-pressure everytime in the-
ir mind.
yes,the point that i try to co-
me is that fear has also a place
in our scene-life like our happi-
ness,excitement,friendship etc.if
you don't believe me or find my
words too silly then just examine
yourself for a period.i'm sure you
will agree.
