Comments on: A personal perspective of the demise of DiddlySquat http://thedeadone.net/blog/a-personal-perspective-of-the-demise-of-diddlysquat/ Welcome to the Other Side Wed, 07 Jan 2009 01:47:53 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.7 hourly 1 By: Mark http://thedeadone.net/blog/a-personal-perspective-of-the-demise-of-diddlysquat/comment-page-1/#comment-25607 Mark Mon, 30 Apr 2007 16:26:23 +0000 http://thedeadone.net/blog/a-personal-perspective-of-the-demise-of-diddlysquat/#comment-25607 I hate to say it, but I've been scared off collaborating on any of my personal projects. So I never have. I think I don't have the confidence to stand up and say, hey what I've got is cool. I'll willingly help others, if asked but I'd rather not ask others to help me unless I trust them absolutely. Sadly there is only one person I trust like that, and she's not a gamer, my wife. :|

This is not because I'm socially inept* but rather because I'm not an idiot. :) * I am socially inept. It's just not relevant here.

Sometimes I do, but generally, given enough time, I'll forget it and move on. It's easier if you meet them in person too. That's probably because I'm sap. I know others who don't and they are certainly not gamers! :(

acktelamyth says it’s because “the higher levels of immaturity and egomania”, which amounts to the same thing! :)

Especially people who have poorly developed social habits anyway.
