This had to been said one way or another so here it is

Everyone currently in the "scene" needs to get a new attitude...
things aren't the way they should be and haven't been for awhile.
All of us need to realize that even though we may hate each other one way or another we have to get a long.
So no matter how "elite" you think you are stop acting like you are better then everyone else.

The Sacred Scene


Lately, I've noticed the scene has changed over the last few years. I wouldnt
say that these changes could have been avoided, but they are changes. Where as
before, people werent as close of friends as many of us are today. Where as
before, many of us would stay up until the wee hours of the night reading text,
and trying out new things; Today, we go dumpster diving, and set up webpages. I
dont think there is anything wrong with what goes on these days.


But I think we need to look back, and ask ourselves which scene was more
productive. I have looked back, and so have people that Ive talked to. We
examined our lifestyles then and now. What we get accomplished then and now.
And, it was very evident which era we chose.


Hell, I even had a hard time getting this zine's usual writers to contribute
anything. This has to be the most unorganized issue ever produced by evil
empire. And why shouldnt it be? This scene doesnt pride itself on sharing
information. It prides itself on irc, and mindless regurgitation of text files
on webpages. We have to consider what we're doing. And ask ourselves what the
"scene" has become. Because the old definition doenst work anymore.
