What you would get from Oprano was never about "how to do" or "what to do" tips, but about perspectives, opiniones and knowledge which you could use to shape your own ideas and/or expand your horizon. In other words - while Oprano made it possible for you to become a shepherd, then other boards were busy breeding sheep.

The sad thing is to watch Oprano be forced into another sheep farm with the "ignorants" cheering on, because they think the "treasure" is hidden in Oprano itself... however the truth is, that the it was never the name, the logo or the script, but the people who were the real treasure.

1000 sheep are only more useful than 10 lions, if they are going to get slaughtered. For everything else the lion is the king.

here is what I don't understand, and you can mock me if it is a stupid question, but if people are so protective about this board and what it stood for, why was it sold? seems like it would be something that people would want to protect and hold on to so that it didn't get into the wrong hands
