Why make those comments? Well, let me see. Because you poured scorn on a
product advertised here, merely to score points for your own game. Poor
etiquette, Darren. Not exactly hard to do and all it causes is flame wars.

Go on running your game. Spellbinder will go on running theirs. That's
fine for all parties involved. Start attacking a product here and don't be
surprised if you are attacked in return. An easier way of attracting
attention to your product would have been to simply post your own advert,
would it not?

Fine, no problems there, but just post an Ad. Simple enough. You don't
*have* to make your game sound attractive by running down another.

Now we've sorted that out, we can shake hands like gentlemen<g>
