yeah - I agree. It would be nice to get some posters whose sole purpose wasn't to come here and cause problems.

What's sad is that we seem to have posters that can dish it out but not take it. The LotRs forum, and not any of the other Tolkien forums are a suitable place to bring up political beefs to inflame someone that they have disagreed with in the GMs forum. I find the constant flame-baiting to be annoying and uncalled for. Some posters seem to like stirring trouble, sitting back and watching the fireworks, and then complain when action is taken against them, or if the results of their instigation doesn't go their way.

Which leaves... erm you. Oh no! I sound like Fenir! AND it qualifies me further in the clueless nit wit / inside jokers catagory....

Actually my thinking was that I was more in the "inconsiderate boor" camp then anything else. With a little bit of blatherer in me but not so much extremist. Perhaps I should have made a "pompous uncouth know it all" category. As far as that inside jokers category watch that. Thats the lowest of the bunch in my opinion. But Im really getting at the vacuous useless few who really make no attempt to ever interact with any quality posts but instead spend all of their time talking loudly to a few people about nothing, apparently simply so that others can notice . If you spend any significant time talking about things only one or a small handful of mooters would have any clue what you are talking about or if you are one of those people who like to loudly boast about your PM habits then you fall into this group. But from what Ive seen you at least make noble attempts to address meaty issues even if its done with all sorts of pitiful self depricating humility. So fear not.

Well thank you. Even for the suggestion that my disposition is self-depricating and pitful! I'm quite arrogant in real life...

Arrogance is only a little bit worse then humility. Humility is only useful if you can manage it honestly. If you have to force humility you may as well be yourself.

I miss him too. I haven't chatted to him for weeks now. Come back soon, Raddy-kins! I think it IS still down, or he'd come online and say something at least.

Just letting everybody know I'll be absent in a trip for three months. I don't think I'll have much (if any) Internet access.

I'll miss you all
