And might I suggest, Robin, that your original reply to Jhaelen, while more strongly worded than I'd like, was more than adequate to make your point, and the next one was really just piling on. Once you've made your point, there's not a lot of reason to keep coming back to the well.

You can suggest anything you like.... it's just a suggestion.
Sorry it was more strongly worded than you like, but I liked it just fine.
And more than adequate is better than simply adequate, IMO. I like to excel.

I played Chill once I think. I think the rerelease is Cryptworld but I don't know much about it or the original. I love old Hammer horror films...is Chill a good game for that type of stuff?

EDIT: sort of answered above before I posted

Stuff removed because purpose served, ephemeral as that was. Leaving stuff below up because it makes me sounds old codger.

For the record, I've been here long enough that the 2001 version of Eric Noah's site Morrus posted on the front page the other day looks newfangled and I wish they'd go back to the old style, and I haven't noticed a significant uptick from the normal 98.9%* useless threads. I have had to use the ignore button, which is annoying because I don't recall ever using it before, and I hate learning new things. I unignored them two days later.

Edit: more posts, and Morrus said something. I'll leave this up for now.
Edit Edit: No I won't. Flamingo. I need sleep.

See, there is a point, Robin, where you just come off like a troll. I'm not sure what you're trying to accomplish. But if it makes you happy, then fine: All of Robin's comments are always right, any facts to the contrary notwithstanding. And anyone who disagrees with him is always wrong.

There, now you don't ever have to keep flogging a disagreement with someone ever again.

The new version of the old Chill game is called Cryptworld. It uses all of the old mechanics, and even the art is reminiscent of the old game. Like I said, I need to find a chance to play it!

Guys, please do not respond to Robin's or Jhaelen's posts above. Thanks.

Now we are getting somewhere!
Why it took you this long to figure that out is beyond me!
Now, spread the word.

Yeah sorry Morrus. Just got annoyed.

Guys, please do not respond to Robin's or Jhaelen's posts above. Thanks.

Sorry. I started my response, but had to wander off in the middle of it, and didn't realize you'd come in until after I wrapped it up and posted.
Edit: I've edited my response, and edited my response about my response, which is this response, as well as edited my edit comment on my response. Also, I am wicked tired, and this is too funny to me right now.

I don't have questions, I'd rather let your posts speak for themselves. I'll be frank:
When you arrived here, I was already a bit wary, thinking 'Oh, dear, a bunch of posters that got kicked from the WotC forums? Please stay away!'. Now that you've been around for a while I've started to recognize (most? of) your names and simply avoid any thread started by one of you. I somewhat resent the number of 'useless' threads in the Geek-Talk forum, but I'm getting used to it. I think I've also put one or two of you 'OOTer's' on ignore because of repeatedly inane comments. I suppose I'd be happier if you moved on to harass a different forum.

Hi there and thanks for posting. I'd like to address a couple of things - if I may:

I'd appreciate a definition from you for 'useless threads'. I find that something I don't understand in the least. This is a message board that's here for the purpose of discussion. Any thread posted fits that use, does it not? If not, why not?

I'd also appreciate a description of 'inane comments'. I'd like to understand where your problem is.

One final thought: I can assure you we're not hear to harass anyone. If we were, you'd know. Or not. Believe me, though, we're just looking for a place to talk. Some of you seem to get that and respect it. Others ... notsomuch.
