Note that the person criticizing wasn't criticizing YOU, but the issue/habit in general: the message was for general consumption.
Yours just happened to be the lucky "instance" selected by Our Friend the Moderator. :^) Doncha feel all special now?

Also note that the "newbie" or "first post" status isn't any sort of defense or claim to immunity (this is generally true in most places on the 'Net) -- the idea is, "First Posters" should have been lurking for a while, and have understood most of the groundrules. That said... *I* for one hadn't realized that we were supposed to craft our Subject-lines with such care and clarity. It's good to know... <eyes OFtM> Not wanting to be mistaken for a Commie Mutant Traitor type poster...

Remember: the Moderator is Our Friend! < afixes over-bright smile on face; searches desperately for a clone... >

DarkWingedFae,

I apologize that i made you feel singled out or that you felt I said you'd done anything bad,
it truly was not in any way about you -- however, if I'd just private messaged you back,
no-one else would benefit.

Not that anyone follows suggestions anyway. :)

I have the power to delete threads, but I only delete stuff that is obvious SPAM.

Lastly, I should say that I thought your WW post was quite interesting &
generated some interesting convo's. I for one was a MAGE player, and finding
a game of Mage is not the easiest task! :)

Maybe part was I got grumpy b/c I try to read all the threads & make this thing use-able.
But my dream of a tribe where people say their games & gamers UNITE to play...
may have evolved into a group dream of something else?

PEACE

Ari
