No bateau, you are just "yelling at this lamer" because from time to time you find it entertaining to have an argument with someone. The remarks made about "l8tz" were quite probably out of order, but this flamewar you are engaged in is far more destructive than the original "offence". You've been rather subdued in here up to now, but your activities in AGA have driven off many a poster where a simple explanation would have been sufficient, but your first response to someone who posts in a way which does not conform to your view of abandonware is with profanity and insults, and leads to a lengthy and tedious flamewar. >So fuck off you worthless little leech. You have NEVER done ANYTHING >for either the ascii art community or the abandonware community. If you can't answer a man's argument, all is not lost; you can still call him vile names. --Elbert Hubbard (1856-1915) I contributed much thought and discussion to AGA before I realised reasoned argument was pointless there as you were bound to resot to vulgar and personal attacks of anyone who argued a point of view different from yours. As regards this group, I contribute in my own small way, by appreciating the work of others more talented than I. For what is an artist without an audience? I am part of that audience, and a part of it who is becoming increasingly tired of your dick-waving at the expense of bandwidth which could be far better used in downloading art. And now, having taken up my own quota of a.a-a bandwidth for the forseeable future (unless I suddenly acquire a hitherto unseen talent for ASCII art) I leave this thread, but not before consigning you to the bit bucket, something I have refrained from doing for far too long. No doubt you will start another thread about how terrible Lemming is, well, go ahead - I won't see it. Regards, -- Lemming Curiosity *may* have killed Schr�dinger's cat.
