I would agree on the majority opinion ; the wording doesn’t mAtter anymore, The majority option is to be respected ; For sure, if They offered collaboration and didn’t leave some ambiguity ; A lot or some wouldn’t have had mattered anymore; > like this say something equivalent to "overtaken by events" or > "use no longer recommended" rather than "deprecated". > > best, > john Well; they are all synonyms in this case; The facts not the Vocab ; “Overtaken by events”was really a big loss of time; To 4698, ( whom btw , 4698 , is the only news during all this time ) A Potential isn’t to be diminutive for whom who have it ; Diminutive is the real (in order not to say only ) [ART], Many of us here are gifted and dedicated to this kind of [ART], I think 4698 has been oversteering ; For some time ; And neglected for oversteering ; >>> That would require broadening the scope of this document >>> somewhat and adjusting its title but, having skimmed through >>> it, would not require significant work. Is true; constructive input doesn’t come when such a behavior comes from surrounding people; The communities shouldn’t stay passive when one of them needs their help and support , and though passing through very difficult circumstances kept on being enthusiastic and dedicated ; At the End of the Day ; too much time and energy was lost from 4698; and for him. Well-being and peace of mind can only sort out nice things out of a beautiful mind; When all the effort isn’t rewarded on any level; though support and backing up a fresh start within the community ; Not only those weren’t offered ; They were suppressed and did nothing ; Literally ; Nothing but negativity and harmful effect on personal and professional life; If. Not mutual, and not clear, and of a negative effect, a result of isolation and loss of skill, And there was always something fishy about it , 4698 may have been manipulated, overloaded,but kept on being productive, the only damage is fatigue and loss of interest . It will never be a dropped course, but from now on mathematics will be ruling; taking should be as much as been given ,and effortless ; because the community , And if somebody cares, Would be loosing quality input and a “friend “ of them loosing more energy than he should. [ART]? The main looser; 4698 would never consider opting out , but never digging that much and being taken for granted anymore, Cheers >
