[QUOTE="DMofDoom, post: 6055259, member: 6701934"] This thread was a bit of a rollercoaster, but in the end I have to say it leaves me with a lot of disgust, however, [U]none of it[/U] directed towards [B][U]any[/U][/B] of the [B]Gygaxi [/B](plural of Gygax), nor towards [B][I]Gygax magazine[/I][/B]. And [U]not[/U] at [I]everyone[/I] who posted in this thread. The term disgust feels a tad mild in fact, but it will do. [B]I can't wait to check it out (Gygax Magazine).[/B] (I feel I should say I am not privy to any details of EGG's family history, save that he was married more than once, and had several children) For all the many trolls, and yes you [I]are[/I] trolls, who will troll (aptly so) all they can about this: I couldn't give a cup of piss about your opinions, so have at it. When someone, your father [U]perhaps[/U], dies - he can't [I]"pass on the torch"[/I] - cause he's [U]dead[/U]. [I]Sometimes[/I] the feelings someone might have, towards a father that started a new family, change over time. Especially after their passing. [I]You can't change what you did (or didn't)[/I], or how your relationship played out, with someone who is deceased. [B] No matter how much[/B] you might want to. You [I]can[/I] change how you remember them. You can yell into the darkness "Yes I want to spend time with you father!" And pick up his torch, light your brother's from it. And try to carry that torch somewhere that would make him proud, or maybe just make him smile. [B]You[/B] can be[B] your father's so[/B]n. Anyone can. Try and stop them. And you [B]don't[/B] have to compromise[B] your[/B] other feelings to do it. (or bend the knee) You will [B][U]never[/U][/B] know what they would think of it, but you will [U]learn more about them[/U], their friends, and yourself. Wheedle and whine and chip your two cents at whoever will listen. See how far it that goes, surely nations must be trembling from the shock and audacity of a dormant, unsolicited, email newsletter. "I have been deceived!" you wail, "This would have me think it was [I]related[/I] to [I][B]gaming[/B][/I] and [I][B]Gygax[/B][/I]! This magazine[I] about gaming[/I] from the [I]sons of [B]Gygax[/B][/I]." you howl, "Tricked! Fooled! Foul! I was made to think he lived! That it was related to his [I]legacy[/I]! Not his kids! His legacy! [B]Something CREATED and SHAPED by him![/B]" (something must have failed here to click) [I][B]Take your morals from law and see where that leads you.[/B][/I] Let your jowls flap as you shake your head at the disgusting brazenness of these sons using their [I]own[/I] name, their[I] father's[/I] name, in an endeavor following, however tentatively, [I]alongside[/I] their father's footsteps.
