You guys are so negative.

If Scott needs anything right now, it's support. Not comments about how the third book will never come out and other hopeless rubbish.
I don't care if Scott ever reads these things or not, don't give up on him.
We love Scott, let's be nice to him, okay?
If you read it properly
toran — Wed, 05/12/2010 - 04:32If you read it properly everyone was actually sympathizing with him. One person mentioned it in passing, AFTER they had already said how sad it was and hoping he is ok.
Neck up.

I don't believe anyone on
Sabetha — Thu, 05/13/2010 - 19:19I don't believe anyone on this forum is being negative. There is somewhat of a negative atmosphere simply because Scott is going through such a hard time and the book seems to far away. As Toran said, we're hardly flaming the guy, we're his FANS for goodness sake! Why would we be in a forum to do a thing like that? By all means, contribute postively to the forum. We're all Lynch fans here :)
right, that's why someone
feistyrobotcat — Mon, 05/17/2010 - 21:01right, that's why someone said not to expect the next book and actually LISTED other books to read. you guys are real supportive.
You call us negative because
Sabetha — Mon, 05/17/2010 - 22:23You call us negative because of one - possibly even two, if I overlooked one - comments? There's a whole bunch of other comments - in fact, basically EVERY other comment - is extremely supportive. I could list them, but I'd basically be listing the entire thread. Rest assured, if anyone posted anything nasty or disrspectful about Scott - or about anything in general - they would be immediately removed from the forum. It's difficult at the moment because there's been very little positive news to discuss, the most recent was the RoT excerpt back in october. Instead of lowering the mood even more with unwarranted criticism, why not start a discussion surrounding the books instead? :-) Fresh faces are always welcome.
Talking about being negative!
TheSpider — Mon, 05/17/2010 - 22:55Talking about being negative! This is a very positive first message... :-)
This is actually one of the most supportive forums out there. After all we're fans of Scott. You should see what people say elsewhere...
I'm sorry you had such a bad first impression. I think you should re-read the thread and you'll see that almost every message is very kind and supportive.
Welcome! (and I hope you'll change your mind :-)
To Sabetha: Well said. I
CoupeDeGrace — Thu, 05/20/2010 - 05:02To Sabetha: Well said. I agree completely.
To Feisty: I can see your point. Scott is a good author and a great guy, so it makes sense that you would want to defend him, and I respect you for it.
Truthfully, I am impatient for his new book. I'm human, it happens. However my appetite for his work has nothing to do with my sympathy for his problems and I am definitely not flaming or criticizing.
As to the literature suggestions you seem to find annoying- well, I'm sure we're all avid readers here. New and exciting books are part of our lifestyle, but I feel that I can speak for most of us when I say that there is no chance we'll miss Scott's next book :)
