I could see this one coming - an r.g.programmer identity crisis, as 
happens in several newsgroups (please dont let it overtake this one).

My personal opinion: The code, discussion about VGA/DMA/Texture mapping 
and so on I have found extremely useful, and I am grateful to the people 
who have posted it, and their willingness to discuss their efforts or 
ideas via e-mail. Yes, I am using it in a game which I am programming 
recreationally (hence rec.games.programmer).

Idea: Those of you who want to see talk about game concepts as opposed 
to tech stuff, start talking about them. The reason low level IBM hardware 
has become a popular topic is because a lot of people want to talk about 
it. Presumably, there are going to be a lot of people out there who 
are interested in talking about your ideas for basing a game on. Posting 
a complaint will just get people who have no complaints about the newsgroup 
mad. So, instead of take take take, try something like "I think that 
this group has been too tech-oriented lately, so {here are some ideas 
I've been working on|does anyone have any ideas on game design they 
want to share with us}". You wont make anyone made, and will save a 
stupid flame war.

Thanks for your time,
