We explore the idea of objects that, under some contextual conditions, become less “agreeable” to the user. Such an object may lower its performance level, become less usable, or start producing discouraging stimuli. Yet, it always remains fully functional and usable. We call such objects resistive. We describe three ways, in which making an object resistive may add value to the user. The resistive object may offer feedback on the user’s past improper actions. It may encourage the user to improve her behavior at the moment. Or, it may offer the user an instant, discouraging evaluation of a bad operation on the object, which she is about to perform. In each case, resistivity is meant to help the user avoid undesirable behavior and choose a better course of action. In the paper we introduce the concepts of personal and community-wide resistive objects and provide a model of object resistivity. We exemplify the concepts with a number of ideas for resistive objects. Notably, the examples may serve as an inspiration for quite a few experiments with end users. Finally, we hint at selected research issues.

hills covered with picturesque calcareous rocks (inselbergs) having unusual shapes.
Those inselbergs - single rocks or sometimes whole ranges are most characteristic for
Jura. They are usually seen as the tops of high and steep hills.
In such places people built their castles and watchtowers, making use of walls of the rocks,
steep slopes and their inaccessibility. One of the example of such strongholds is Eagle Foretop.
Because of its unusual landscape and defense advantages Jura was appreciated in the course of
history. The process of building the system of fortifications had already started in early middle
ages. Under the rule of Kazimierz the Great a system of fortifications was built between
Krakow and Czestochowa, which for three centuries successfully protected Poland. At that time
many castles were built on the top of inaccessible peaks. Nowadays scenic ruins of the castles
are one of the symbols of Jura.

History of Kozieglowy dates back to
middle ages. The name of the village

Probably it looked like this:
One of the later owners of the grounds –
Nicolas of the noble clan of Foxes, to

According to archeologists it looked like
this:
54. In XIII century the castle was attacked by Tatars retreating from
Czestochowa. Despite being besieged for the whole day the people didn’t give
up. Invaders decided to besiege the castle as long as the people in the castle
had nothing to eat. At that time by the cover of night the owner of the castle
managed to escape to Wozniki. In the dungeon of the castle there had been
numerous treasures which were buried under the debris. According to the
legend they have been protected by the guardian who doesn’t let anybody to
take them. Finally the castle was destroyed by retreating Swedish troops in
1655. Today we can see only the remains of the castle.
As a result of the partition of Poland in XVIII century this district was
annexed to Russia. In 1914 those grounds were taken by Prussia and were ruled
by them until 1918. As WWII began Kozieglowy and surrounding areas got
under the rule of the Reich until 19 February 1945 when Red Army started
occupying those grounds. In 1975 administrative reform determined present
borders of the district. The head of the district is a mayor, at present this
function is held by Mr Jacek Sleczka.
Cynkow is situated near such villages like: Markowice, Winowno, Huta Stara,
Rzeniszow, Wojslawice, Zabijak.
The earliest information about Cynkow is dated to XIV century.

Cynkow) belonged to the Krakow’s bishops. Thanks to the Four Years’
Sejm’s act the Siewierz Dutchy and Cynkow were recognised as
Polish grounds.
First information about the village was to be found in the document
from 1372. Later Barlomiej – the first village leader - bought more
ground from Krystyn I on 12.11.1409. In XV century Jan Dlugosz
wrote that Cynkow village belonged to Kozieglowy parish. People
cultivated the ground and paid predial tithe to the church and the
parish priest. There wasn’t any inns, any gardens or any manors.

grounds from the Kozieglowy parish. The first parish priest was Zygmunt
Pilarczyk. Later in 1983 the chapel was built next to the presbytery. From

the school was very long and the children had to work on the field. The Russian government
promised to build new school but the start of World War I prevented them from doing so. On
18.01.1936 the resolution which stated that new school had to be built was passed on. The
finishing works over the school building were carried out really slowly because of the lack of
money. Finally only 3 classrooms, a class for practical activities and household were available.

blessing of new building. At that ceremony the teachers from Rudnik Wielki and the people from
