Which seems to be a sweeping statement which is both incorrect and seems to
be only necessary if you were wishing to show any new players reading this
NG that they really should go and play games other than PBM.

I don't recall seeing you in a number of games I've played in and I'm sure
that a number of GMs including myself haven't seen you in their games - Can
I assume that these games are part of the minority as you can't form a
viable opinion because you haven't played them? Or are they equalling
'boring' as they're PBM?

Sweeping statements are fine when they work - Yours didn't and demeans the
efforts made by the 'majority'

Incidentally - I thought you'd unsub'd this NG??
