Actually this thread is about bring old friends together and looking for them. DarthJaye and Harmon were once friends and they need to work on their friendship.
Just because they are hacking through some relationship stuff here should not kill the thread, or make it out to be something evil. I think if Harmon could he would spend all the time he could on repairing whatever it was they did that damaged their friendship (it appears quite important to him).

Reply #116- DarthJaye said “You only have half the story and not all the details,” this was directed at me.
In this thread (http://www.enworld.org/showthread.php?p=2529763#post2529763) he made the comment (#7) about a former Player named James. Quite obviously Jaye knew that the comment would bring forth some response from Harmon. So it is my belief that Jaye set the whole situation up to either A) annoy or anger Harmon, or B) get Harmon to talking to him for some reason.
Judging by the amount of apologizes Harmon has placed forth I would say he did something that was pretty bad. Judging by the lack of acceptance of those apologies from DarthJaye it must either have been really bad, or Jaye just cannot accept apologies or maybe he can’t give them for his part in the mistakes made (personally I think the latter of the two here, but as Jaye pointed out, I know nothing of the situation only what I have seen over the last year and a half in this forum).
All in all if this thread does nothing else it might get them to talking again. Also judging by the amount of emotion between the two of them and knowing that they were friends for fifteen or sixteen years, it sounds like they both want to work this out, they just need a forum. So we need to be supportive, kind, and if the thread dies or the two never talk again, at least we gave them the chance and the place to try.

I agree, it is about the possibility of bringing old friends together. (Okay, I'll throw a couple more names out there: Don Usual and Billy Felon. I know these are not your real names but we did game together at a rather heady point in time. You might know me as "Bong".)
That aside, I started this thread and I couldn't care less that it has been "hijacked", i.e. "diverted" in this way. Who doesn't love a Soap Opera? They just kind of suck you in with all their tantalizing and justabouttogoovertheedge morbidity. I love the discourse so far. Succulent in fact. Maybe we could get you lot on the Jerry Springer Show or something. Gaming Groups Gone Wild? I'm sold.
Please continue the discussion here ad nauseum. I haven't really taken a side yet since nobody's really clearly thrown the bone of contention into the public arena for us ravenous devourers who choose to live our bitchy lives vicariously through others.
I'm waiting for the train wreck.
I had this whole two page thing written on Word, hoping that it would convence DarthJaye of "this is my side of the story, what is yours," then I realized he has no interest in repairing the damage we did to our friendship. If he did he would work at it. 
Loki- thank you for allowing this thread to be hijacked, I know it wasn't something you wanted to allow, and it seems only fair that you understand it all, but truth be told- no one understands the whole of it. I screwed up, I got mad, and DarthJaye can never forgive because he seems to think that the slight I gave him was bigger then the one I had to endure.
Silver- thank you, you have been great and supportive. I know you have been seen as a villian in some of this, but to me you are a stand up kinda gal, and that means something to me.
I am gonna say goodbye for a while- I have one update on my kid thread, after that.
Take care, EN, thanks and I am so very sorry for being such an jerk here.

Guys, a moderator asked you to please stop hijacking the thread. Maybe you should discuss this face to face or via email, but this really isn't the place to discuss it. Nothing emotional and private should get solved in front of thousands of other folks.
To return the thread to topic, I've tracked down old gaming buddies a couple of ways:
- Classmates.com. One of my friends emailed me.
- I saw one had registered at the Forge, and so tracked him down through their PM system.
Google is a really great tool for finding folks.

Thanks, Loki. As Harmon said thank you. I guess Harmon knows Darthjaye better then anyone else. Obviously Jaye hates Harmon.
Hatred will only darken the soul. Harmon knows that.
