.html I echo a lot of the sentiments expressed by Graham and thank him for putting them down so eloquently. I too sometimes have to resort being a lurker at times when I'm just too busy. I often set aside some posts that I intend to respond to, but when I do have a chance later, the discussion is beyond the point in which my comments are needed.

I also often feel the exasperation of seeing rethreaded discussions about the same old thing time and again, but I hang in and eventually we always do find new things to talk about. I find that DG is a very cyclical beast and patience is eventually rewarded. But sometimes it is equally important to lay back a take a breather. Life is not all POTA, but POTA is still a great thing.

OK heres my latest 2 CDN cents worth of POTA to 'contribute'. Not much but since the DG is starving for discussion....

I watched Rob Zombie's "House of 1000 corpes" they other day and it had a POTA reference. It was pretty nasty (as are all Rob Zombie movies) but there was this scene where a guy is describing what he saw another guy do with a Zaius doll...
Don't want to go into the details.
Anyone else see that movie?

Oh, and Graham, I'll call you a Pommie anytime you wish. Just don't ask me to understand anything about cricket or ashes.

This might come out like a bit of a ramble, so bear with me but I've been watching this discussion for the last few days and I got a few minutes to actually put some thoughts together, not necessarily in the right order mind you but...

John's statment goes double for me, On the "other" group I tend just to lurk. As he says over analyzing Star Trek debates aren't really my cup of tea.

When the group works for me it's fun, it even can make me laugh !!

(where else am I going to get called a pom !! )

It's a shame that the burden of doing stuff falls on to such a few people but isn't that the nature of the beast.

As most of you know I run my own business (which is one reason why I don't do as much as I'd like, never mind anyone else) when we do direct targeted advertising we normally get a 1.5 % pick up which is about par for the course and I see this as very similar most people aren't, for what ever reason, motivated .

Which is why, when some one shares some things I try and acknowledge them, because they've actually completed some thing and had the guts to show other people but I know I miss some things.

I sympathize with Neil, I know how many man hours goes into most comic pages, we've both swop E-mails with each other in the past expressing our wish just to be able to complete things quicker.

It would also be good if there was more outlets for stuff, I know I've got a few pics that I'd like used some where but at the present that's looking unlikely... It does make you think "why bother..."

On finding things to discuss , may be we should just see where the chips fall, I know I wander off topic some times but should we be hung up on this, if we've all discussed the circular time line so often do we need to do it again? (Probably!!)

I tend to write more when Apes starts a topic but opens the debate / discussion on to something else.

Every time Ape comics are mentioned it's good to widen the debate to include other work, Dario's topic from awhile back about Kirby and his comic Kamandi was a good example.

We've all got different back grounds and interests which just happen to intersect at POTA, we might even learn some things of each other !!!

Back to what John said this group was / is fun, I lurked for along time when their was a lot of  back and forth with the other group and I still tend to stop posting when there's a bit of trolling going on, I'm too old and ugly to play those games.

I hope here remains a place where I can come for a few minutes break and a breather (and still get called a pom!!)

Neil if it's any help to you, I've noticed that the home page pic has been the same for a day or so, if it would relieve any burden off your self (Probably the least of it I know)  you can always use some of my work, if you feel that it needs to be freshened up any, I 'm sure other artist on the group would make the same offer.

I've not offered something like this before because I don't want to step on anyones toes.

As John says really hope this isn't the end, I mean it wasn't that many months ago that the board was active,full of discussion, Michael was calling people poms and England was winning the ashes, I'm sure it can be like that again (well apart from the cricket  )

As always best wishes Graham.

Neil, I actually understand quite well what you mean about being
tired of it all. For about a decade, I wrote for Star Trek
Communicator and several Star Wars licensees, but it got to a point
where it just seemed like too much work and not enough fun. I
haven't done any work for either franchise in over a year, and it's
been a pleasant break, allowing me to finish my POTA timeline
website, focus more on my daytime editing job and, most importantly,
spend more time with my children. There comes a point where an
avocation starts feeling like a vocation, and at that point the joy
tends to go out of it since hobbies are entirely voluntary but jobs
are not. Once a hobby becomes a job, you start feeling like you have
to live up to others' expectations instead of being whatever kind of
fan you want to be. You've been heavily involved in POTA fandom for
several years now, and as such -- especially with running a group --
I wouldn't be surprised if that's how you're beginning to feel. I can empathze.

Subject: Re: [PotaDG] Comics.

Here's my two cents on this very subject.  It might be too unique an experience to help, but it's one I have experience with.

I'm as much of a fan of pop culture as I am a purveyor of it..  I've seen all five hundred Star Trek episodes a dozen times each, I've probably read more Batman comics than anyone alive and I've devoted too much energy in getting every issue of Marvel's Avengers titles, and putting them in lovely bags and boards in my house. I've recorded every Simpsons and adored darn near each one of them.  I owned a set of the Apes movies for twenty years, and watch all five in a week, as an annual ritual in the summer.  As part of my job, I've ended up working on NEARLY all these properties professionally, and I am thrilled that I got to, but it comes with a price.  Your fandom goes out the window.

 I'm always mentally taking notes when watching the Simpsons, studying the dialogue and the rhythms. I get jealous of good ideas that the other writers come up with, rather than simply enjoying them.   After five years of writing Batman comics, I completely stopped reading them for years, and now rarely glance at them.  I didn't even SEE the recent Superman movie, something people who know me can't believe. And as for POTA,  I must have watched Escape and Conquest ten times or more in the space of six months, and I probably won't do my Apes festival for years now. 

A couple of months ago, I was asked if I wanted to work on the new Star Trek comic series. 

I declined.  HELL no.

The thing that appeals to the fan in me is to visit a world that's FAR away from the world I live in.  To GO to Ape City, or Gotham, or the Enterprise in my mind is the best part of the experience.  If I get too involved in actually creating these environments, or make too much of my day about living there, then they no longer are pleasant escapes. 

I don't like visiting Gotham City anymore, cause I literally used to live there.

I’d really love a cover for Going Home – I would ask that it is TV Show environment and the rest is yours!

Thanks Neil, for sticking up the bookmark pic on the home page.

Now as a confirmed luddite I've just discovered these new fangled image hosting what nots so if I've done this right every one should be able to click on the full book mark below.

.html Thanks for the homepage logo/bookmark Graham.

Actually with the tons of POTA pics I have, I've always wanted to make POTA bookmarks since I'm an avid reader and always keep bookmarks handy. Quite easy to do with any art and photo editing tools to jazz them up and blend/crop/recolour/scale/texture etc. But in the end I need one of those damned plastic lamination machines and I don't have one or have access to one. Arrgh!

Cool and do you think you could get a link to the full painting for
the ones you use in the future as well? I think the Urko is my
favorite Graham painting at the moment. Great to see those characters
used in such an uncharacteristic way.

I always thought so, but then it’s really just a detective story with masks isn’t it?

 

Is that necessarily a bad thing I wonder?

It would be nice to have all the major TV show characters for the cover – but really whatever you want.
