Partly? Yeah, sure, if you think so. (I shudder to think if anybody hires him as a freelance author.) |

Dare I ask the name of your 6 figure wannabe? |

I dunno - the thread on the new adept powers is into the 20s so far. This could be more inflammatory because it's far more likely to raise the hackles of all the argumentative losers on this board. :) |

Don't worry about it, he wouldn't sign on. One too few figures. ~J |

Granted, I shudder to think if he gets hired as an author at all. |

You need to have it be the number of posts not the number of pages. Most Dumpshock veterans are displaying 100 posts per page. |

Indeed. I haven't seen an eight-page thread since the Lounge closed.

probably only tangentially related. but the one thing I love the most about this board?
THERE'S NO BLOODY RATING SYSTEM. no karma, no rep+, no fresh/splat, no post-farming, no rating camping. no filter to remove posts with low ratings. Every post is created equal, the only thing that determines whether you see it or not is whether you followed the drivel that far down the page. :D and yeah. I can't remember the last time I saw an 8page thread (100 per page here) edit: minor grammatical errors. |

I don't think I've ever seen a Shadowrun related thread to rival the sex thread in the Lounge. Hopefully, everyone here still has his or her priorities properly in order.
Ah, the good old days... |

Maybe the EuroSB related threads, on the brown forums, when the project was at its beginning. We had to start a new thread two or three times as the admin told us the length it reached was causing technical problems. |

I thought I should clarify, as many of the responses seem to think I mean that no criticism should be made. that's not the case. The thing I have a problem with is some people's need to be rude when they reply.
Just because someone's ideas for their campaign don't meet your standards is no excuse to be rude. But that's generally the case with the internet. People who wouldn't have the stones to be rude in real life get to do it from the anonymity of their keyboard. Its kind of sad when you think about it. |

Who says none of us would be rude in real life?
Generally, it's the people who flame and troll that are really the little kids in high school that hide in corners and secretly make fun of everybody. As I said; we're just very opinionated. We voice those opinions when we feel our voices are needed. It isn't a matter of "being rude because it's the only place we can be," it's a matter of "telling them our opinions because that's why the posted it here -- to read our opinions on the matter." |

And don't forget, some people never learned how to write in such a way to say, "I disagree," without adding, "you ass!"
I fear for todays youth, just like everyone of a given generation has feared for the youth of the next generation....I mean it only seems fair. |

I'll take that as a compliment. :D Jrayjoker: Yup. The next generation (hell, my generation) is completely screwed over. I blame Political Correctness. |

It wasn't meant to refer to you at all, but if you want to take it as a compliment, I certainly can't stop you. :)
I agree. The only PC I care about is sitting on my desk. |

Correctness is admirable, Political Correctness is an impediment to society.

Good. I always considered myself an asshole anyway, might as well pretend somebody else called me one without attempting to flame me (pathetically, might I add). :D
Agreed as well.
Indeed. It makes everybody try to not step on each other's toes, but they end up just knocking themselves over anyway. |

If you don't want people's opinions, don't post! If you don't like someone's response, then report them to an Admin. There's no need to make a completely off-topic thread (something that is somewhat frowned upon here) and continually bemoan the fact that a few people disliked an idea enough to call it stupid.

No, that's probably because they all started writing in different forms of poetry.
