I've managed to get attention, for sure. Unforunently people don't seem to be
reading past the controversy at all. So I've dug myself a hole, as usual. Maybe
I'm too used to saying derogatory things to friends and on the internet, which
btw are always in jest I don't certainly don't mean them anything more
ribjabbers, that I neglected to remember that Lugnet is the most uptight place
I've ever posted to.

And on the subject, I seem to recall that being the exact reason
Classic-Castle.com and FBTB was made in the first place. They didn't feel
welcome on LUGNET, so they made their own.

I'm actually getting quite a few "congrats" from other people. So I'm not
alienating *everyone* like you may think, I'm just not getting any support in
the form of posts.

Well, I think I've said enough for today. So I'll leave it at that.
