+### Have you heard of LLVM/asmjit/jitasm/luajit/etc?
+
+I get asked this about once a day. Yes, I have heard of them. In fact, I spent
+a long time trying them out:
+[LLVM](https://github.com/benvanik/xenia/tree/85bdbd24d1b5923cfb104f45194a96e7ac57026e/src/xenia/cpu/codegen),

+They don't work for this purpose. I understand if you disagree, but please
+understand that I've spent a significant amount of time on this problem.
+
+### Why did you do X? Why not just use Y? You should use Y. NIH NIH NIH!
+
+Trust that I either have a good reason for what I did or have absolutely no
+reason for what I did. This is a large project that I've been working on
+for almost 4 years and in that time new compilers and language specs have
+been released, libraries have been created and died, and I've learned a lot.
+Insulting me will get you ignored.
+
+### Hey I'm going to go modify every file in the project, ok?
+
+I welcome contributions, but please try to understand that I cannot accept
+changes that radically alter the structure or content of the code, especially
+if they are aesthetic and even more so if they are from someone who has not
+contributed before. This may seem like common sense, but apparently it isn't.
+If a pull request of this nature is denied that doesn't necessarily mean your
+help is not wanted, just that it may need to be more carefully applied.
+
+### I have a copy of the XDK. Do you want it?
+
+No.
 
 ### (some argument over an unimportant technical choice)
 
 In general: 'I don't care.'
+That means I either really don't care and something is they way it is because
+that was convienient (such as GYP, which I am familiar with), or that
+I don't care because it's not material to the goal of the project. There are
+a million important things that need to be done to get games running and
+going back and forth about unimportant orthogonal issues does not help.
+If you really do have a better way of doing something and can show it, do so.
