the fall of customize?

Wednesday, April 24, 2002 by John Hamp | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk

When I first discovered winamp skins I went to a site called customize.org. Then I went to skinz when cust dissapeared. But since cust has come back its become a haven for l33ts. What's the deal there? Whose in charge of the zoo there? Its just wallpapers and screenshots and they constantly attack Stardock's stuff. I read on deskmod the wb3 announcement and the cust admins were on attacking it there. Then on cust itself they attack it some more. What kind of skin site has admins that bad mouth new releases of the software they support on their site?

Shoggot: While this is probably obvious to other people I guess it is necessary to point this out:

If "high and mighty" attitude were a personal attack that warrants a warning of banning, then would not Robohead, who made the original charge have been warned? Since there was no warning or message of the kind to him after his remark, it stands to reason that it was not considered a personal attack.

Paxx, I think that should do it.

Maybe we can lump them all into one...let's see....

1.) Wasn't Jesus one of Mary Magdalene's clients?
2.) Doesn't Jimmy Carter believe in Jesus and use a MAC?
3.) Isn't Jimmy's lawyer a democrat? No, not possible (NO lawyer is a democrat...snakes don't have a political affiliation)


Now, That should do it!!

1) Religion is nothing but mass-hysteria.
2) All computers, regardless of the type, are crap.
3) What's a Republican? Is that the guy who owns the pub?

1] Religion is the opiate of the masses.
2] Macs are just too busy looking 'cute' to be taken seriously.
3] All politicians are bottom-feeders...WITHOUT EXCEPTION....

Jafo wins this argument (debate)... all three points he made there are true (irrefutable).

Hey hey, you've got to give grayhaze some credit. He has some highly agreeable points there.

I checked out Cust tonight to see if there's anything new. Some old walls and screenies but with a poll that states "Phrases that should never be uttered again". One of the choices was "New release of WindowBlinds". Do they realize how idiotic they look? A site called CUSTOMIZE.ORG continuing to put down a skin app they have a section of? Or how childish they look doing it? Of course not.

It doesn't seem like a very friendly place. That kind of thing doesn't give me a very good first impression.
