Exactly, Rip.
Buzzbait, HTC has decided to make some compromises for gameplay's sake. It's up to you whether or not you want to pay to play with those compromises. I've had my share of gripes in the past about some historical inaccuracies, but in the end I agree that some compromises have to be made.
As far as the lack of <S>'s and S!'s, I agree. But as Fatty first said, it's the small vocal minority who pollute the open channel with their acidic drivel. Don't be afraid to let the S!'s fly as needed. Most of the guys flying AH are silent, upstanding folk.
AKDejavu, I agree that there are too many whiny posts about what is wrong with AH, but at the sametime I feel compelled to defend Buzzbait. He gave his opinions on a BBS that exists for the purpose of exchanging ideas and opinions. And whether he really is Nath in disguise is irrelavent to me. Nath, IMHO, has made himself persona non gratta on this BBS. Maybe he realized this and is trying to find a way to change his attitude and start fresh as a decent person. If this is the case, and IF this is his way of doing so....
What's the problem?
As for me, I'm happy to debate any issue with anyone, regardless of what identity they are hiding behind. I stick to the issues. Your focus on the poster's motive and persona, rather than on what their opinions are, seems to me a waste of time.
