Unfortunately, I feel the need to comment again on your review, Enry, even though I promised myself not to do so in order to comply with your explicit request. But first, a note to a couple of users: @Davejon: if the ironic applause was directed at me, it means that besides resembling the singer of Nomadi (as you wrote on my forum years ago), you also share his semi-blindness. Reread my post, and perhaps you’ll understand that Enry was offended for no good reason in my opinion.
@Lostinspace: thank you for butchering my nickname, it shows fine humor and, above all, a remarkable ability to play with words. But as you said, we shouldn't take it personally (I actually agree), so I recommend watching that movie for mentally challenged children from which (I hope not) you take your name. No offense, of course. Enry, let’s get to us: first of all, I would like to know if I am the accused together with Kosmo. If it’s me, I honestly don’t understand you. I must preface that the other review, as mentioned, was also very much appreciated by me. Then the discussion was dragged, as you say, onto another topic because a third of your review referred to it. Since I’m interested in the subject, I tried to understand if it could be a topic for discussion. I don’t think I used youth-speak or framed the issue in terms of glorifying drug culture. Then explain to me why it shouldn’t be addressed here? It’s an interesting topic, and I surely wouldn’t have presented it in the aforementioned terms. So I’m not ashamed of anything, and I don’t see why I should be. I have no children (unfortunately, I’m still a young man, I’m 30) but when I do, I’ll talk about this topic with knowledge of the facts, without demonizing what one doesn’t know like many do. But this doesn’t concern you and doesn’t concern us. Regarding the fakes, I’ve never used them; you could ask the various users, I’ve always shown myself under my nickname for the past three years. I criticized you at first because, in my opinion, the reviews were almost all similar (precisely because I believe they were created for your book, but in that context, it’s understandable) and indeed a bit like shopping lists of albums and bands that I also like very much. Here you may be right, but others have received much heavier criticism. Perhaps the main reason was written by Trell above. You must admit that later, I, like others, changed my mind, and I’ve always read your reviews with interest (if it does you good, I bought the Nektar album "Through..." after reading your review). To conclude, if you want to leave the site, do as you wish; it’s your choice and you’re free to make it. I’d like to suggest that accepting criticism, constructive or not, is useful and helps to relativize oneself with the rest of the world. It allows one to develop a characteristic that I consider fundamental in an individual: self-criticism. This is followed closely by another essential faculty of living: relativizing. There are no absolute truths. Just as there is no MORALITY, dear Davejon; unfortunately, there is MORALISM, which is what you appeal to. I’ll stop here.
