Look, swampyank, I'll post here one more time because I find you reasonable and respectable, and because I agree with what you have had to say (up until your last post).
I wish I had never posted on this thread. It was silly to start with, had degenerated into goofiness, and finally emerged into its adult stage of idiocy. Sometimes, I just don't know when to shut up.
In any event, if you review the last few pages of this mess, you will see that I merely endorsed keeping the content alive and not sacrificing it in the interests of cheap, crass commercialism. My intention was simply to reinforce the notion of integrity in my favorite hobby.
Next thing I know, I'm "arrogant." I'm "using the wrong term." I'm a creep because I don't place myself on the level of "little boys who love tanks and planes."
Pardon me. Let me go crawl back under my rock. I excused myself from here and left the kiddies in possession of the field. I thought to engender dialogue. I got unwarranted insults. If my recalcitrance for further abuse here lessens your respect for what I have to say elsewhere, I apologize to you, too.
Fer chrissake. Gimme good games that challenge my intellect (and, yes, I think that they should be attractive and invoke state-of-the-art design). Spare me the personal attacks.
As Kramer said, "Up here, I'm already gone."
