OP ED page topic

Who is JeanPaul Brixton, and why is he writing these things about WP?

He even mentions Tim_Tex in the Tag area. 8O :P Strange ways indeed.

This is horrible... Wrong Planet is now doomed. Jean-Paul has destroyed Wrong Planet with his article. [inappropriate content edited by sinsboldly]

Do you think that this article will harm WrongPlanet in any way?

not only does that opinion piece lack objectivity, it's poorly organized and written and its conclusion is about as weak as it could possibly be. I wouldn't consider it a compelling piece of writing, not by a long shot.

No. If it was well written, brought up numerous points, and appeared to be well researched, it might hold some weight. As it is now, it's a scattering of random thoughts without any elaboration; even my outlines are more detailed than that.

As it is, I kind of want to show how to write an actual essay.

why not make something about this adds thing on the main page there hasnt been an update there for such a long time.


I agree! The developer has the password to the front page. People have been asking for a new front page for ages. This would be exactly what would bring this to the attention of the membership!

He said he was gonna send me the details on the interview he wanted transcribed.. guess he got busy.. or maybe whoever was supposed to send it to him got busy..

I typed that article up because I wanted to expose the vileness of this place to the public. This forum, should at all costs, not be used.

If you want good Asperger's forums, try PsychForums. The PsychForums staff members despise this place as much as I do.

that wasn't an article, and you didn't really expose anything except your feelings for WP.

I'll be happy to check out PsychForums though.

Thanks for posting that article JP.

I hope you feel great that WrongPlanet is now doomed.

ok, I checked out PsychForums, but I don't see what makes them "good" and this place vile. WP has actually been quite helpful to me.
