A sandness among SOR
« on: May 01, 2008, 03:19:30 AM »
I was just wondering

How sad it is to see a user with only 3,10 post

that hasn't logged on in like 3 years

Like, mabye they went on and built many robots

but mabye they just gave up

I THINK THATS SAD    !!!

I don't like people to give up

They should keep on trying

Because i used to be one of the people who gave up all to easily...But it's not HEALTHY to do that all your life!

And the poeple that may of been on about 3,10 post

could of become a master robot builder!

AN "ADMIN 2"



Oh dear....

I should sleep this madness of!

I don't have nearly that many posts, but I am feeling a little depressed with the way my robot is going. With you know, my entire control system not working  >:( So yea, I may give up soon on it, but not without a fight, because this is something I want to do!

PS Edit your Subject line, you spelled "sadness" wrong.

toughness and challenge is all you need to prosper in life , why do you think that making a robot is time consuming and hard work think of it as fun , think of it as you are creating something that has its own brain and its going to work on its own., The juvilence of seeing your robot on which you have worked so hard is really out of this world and once you get that feeling you will never get disheartened when you fail and youll try to make byourself better for the  sake of creating an intelligent being

And do not forget that even if one tries to build a robot, they will always have something with them even if they did not succeed.

Also, I left the game developing area for robotics. Maybe all these people moved on to a different interest. I do believe that most people that even tries to build a robot is a fairly creative and motivated person, so i have no worry for them wasting their lives not building robots.

My guess for why this is, is that you have to buy some physical parts in order to get started. If I wouldn't have needed to buy anything, i would have started with robotics much earlier than i did, and when i finally thought i would buy some parts, I thought it was a pretty wild choice.

Robot building is like a disease, albet a good disease.  It is very contagious to people of like mind, and while the disease somtimes might go dormant for a period of time where no robots are built, eventually it comes back to the surface and takes hold again.  Probably not my most poetic analogy, but it works...

there's millions of people who have given up...

Take a look at the who's online icon down the bottem of the main fourm page, and look at the profiles that the "Guests" are looking at

although i don't believe the guests are real people because they read topics posted 3 years ago...

I was into home automation, and that kinda drifted towards robotics. Then I forgot about home automation hehe  :D

Well, I haven't really looked at the amount of offline users since I'm kind of new to the game here and too busy reading all the incredibly interesting and inspiring posts!!  ;D This place rocks!!
More important than the non-active users are the ACTIVE users. Don't be sad my friend, we are still many!
