I may have mispelled it... From what I have heard it is: "almost non-existent" or something like that. Then again it may be slang.

I think the word you're looking for is (from dictionary.com):
a·bys·mal ( P ) Pronunciation Key (-bzml)
adj.
Resembling an abyss in depth; unfathomable.
Very profound; limitless: abysmal misery.
Very bad: an abysmal performance.
It does not mean exactly what it seems you think it means, though.

Now even my own breed mocks me? I always knew that there was something evil with that name of yours.
Yes I was refering to a wrong statement. OMG... And me a snob and everything.

Trystorp,
I did not find your prior message to be snobbish or pretentious in any way. Saying that one finds a particular system to be "the best" for their desires is only reasonable. It is only when people start citing preference for an alternate system as strong evidence of insufficent capacity, or somesuch, that it becomes snobbish. And I have encountered variations on that several times.
I do consider myself detail oriented. I get bogged down in details of economy and naming every villager, etc... (my players would say to much so
). But I doubt I would prefer HarnMaster at this point because I still prefer that those detailed villages be attacked by loin clothed barbarians, drow and mind-flayers and saved by fireball flinging archmagi. Just preference, no big deal.
Anyway, I am glad the game works for you and I greatly appreciate you putting a pleasant face on things.
hrafnagud,
Fair enough. I hope you can understand without taking this as confrontational that assuming that everyone else uses your very limited defintion of "the Harn community" is unreasonable. When I speak about my personal interactions with the Harn community, it means the fans of Harn that I have spoken with in the past. I believe that is fair use of language.
So when you impose an assumption on my perspective and respond with a brief jab that could be described as little more than "fighting words", it difficult for me to understand what you really mean.
Now that you have explained yourself, I completely accept what you are saying. Please don't take the above as me trying to needle you. I really am just trying to explain my position. So no hard feelings, lets just write it off as typical message board misunderstanding.
DongMaster,
I'm not even going to bother trying to have a reasonable conversation with you. You still insist on not only putting words in my mouth, but words that are exactly the opposite of what I have, in fact, said.
The answers to your questions and responses to your statements are clear from a review of my previous posts, you can find them there.

They are? I mean I clearly remember seeing you write:
"But while D20 CERTAINLY has its snobs, my repeated experience has been that the Harn community is defined by them.
Yeah truly wise words since the Hârn Forum contains most of these with internet presence and I bet your experiences use it as well. But nuff said, I am outta here in definition. Things are beginning to reek of hide-and-tell around here. Too bad since I know that there are a lot of good folks hanging out on these boards...

It appears you can't even recall the entirety of your own post to which I replied.
I stand completely by the quote you present because the words "my repeated experience" make it 100% true.
Edit: I'm also not going to continue to play the game of: I say I won't reply so you make an absurd claim, forcing me to either reply again or let it stand. Lack of response to future absurdities will not imply that they are not absurd.
