hear hear!

Well said Thucydides

Agreed.
My life is better being involved in this community.

I think its a good community too :-)

The biggest success is that it actually IS a community. Very rare case for the Internet despite what many believe (Internet encourages participation blah blah).

agreed and touched

Hear hear!

I'll bet I'm one of the ones you look up to, right? :-P

Yes! Tried other sites, but nothing to match this. Was always too mechanical and distant, quite boring and dull in the end.

There's a good group here. And, dare I say, there's something about this forum :)

Clarification: the "Yes!" was for Thucydides and the post itself, not for you rlumley :-P

I can't believe this, but I have to say that... I agree with hellalt.

The only other place I found something like this online was the forum for my Faculty, but that is filled with people who know each other IRL.

Agreed!

@ Ivo: It's ok that you can't admit your admiration publicly, I understand it's embarassing to you to be so helplessly in awe of someone. :-P

Yes, it is. It's been too emotional :)

I disagree with everything above. You all suck.

Right back at you DJ. :-P

Awesome site, feels like a family.

yeah... You can call me daddy hoyce...

That's the hellalt we know and hate!

What's a family without the awkward redheaded stepchild?

pls don't call me a redhead. It reminds me of redcoats.

British redcoat redhead? ...

You were around at that time??? And what a memory :)

clearly, he was mostly talking about me

Is there such a thing as a British redcoat redheaded redneck?

I think there are plenty of Irish and Scottish descent rednecks, so yes. ( I think it was one of the books my Malcomn Gladwell where he was talking about a study of 'feuds' in the south and how southerners are sometimes quick to anger, and one of the conclusions was that the Scots, Irish and Sicilians were more likely to have some rednecky traits (my words, not his) because of the clan background they had in the old country. (Although I could have totally missed the point of the book)

it's because of the soil in scotland apparently

I'd like to add my appreciation of the site. First class, it's what the internet was invented for, I'm sure.

awww I love you too thucy

<3

What are you on, Thucydides? I want some, too!

Yeah, I like this site too. Just look at that Abortion thread … nowhere else!

And there's some kind of game here too, I noticed. It's pretty fun.

Oh and by the way Sic where'd you get all those points? My last memory of you was with like... five, so congrats! Haha.

I dont know. my rank is mastermind, but I just feel average. my points just appeared lol.

>Just look at that Abortion thread

Actually, don't look at that anymore. But still, it stayed polite surprisingly long, I think.

I not only have admiration for the developers and mods but also for the more experienced players. I do not want to discount the mods because without them I would not have this experience.
The people I have played with have helped me tremendously and i appreciate all of them. I have to admit there are a few I am not as fond of but I think I may be coming around to appreciate their point of view. Thanks to everyone that has made this not only possible but enjoyable too.

lol Toby did you just quote yourself? Haha.

Yeah I feel like its time to leave the abortion thread, I feel I've said my piece.
