I use GoLive, it's better than what I used to use (Dreamweaver) but to be sure, it's definately not perfect, especially for newbies. In a perfect world I wouldn't have to edit the HTML source by hand to fix the mistakes GoLive makes. I think there's still plenty of room for better web editor.

I don't smoke, but you're being a bit harsh I think. If people want to smoke, I think that's fine. I personally don't like it, but it doesn't bother me a great ammount when others do it. To me, being snobby about it is as bad if not worse than smoking itself.

It's not as if Exile gave us a good description of our characters. Nethergate is basically a less advanced version of the Avernum engine. Any sort of BoN would be a huge waste of time. I could see a Nethergate BoA scenario maybe...

What about Anaximander? That way, he could send you on a pointless mission without you needing to go and see him!

Most of the attention if on Bush's Iraq policy and economic actions, but he's certainly butchered other issues as well. Let's not forget his No Child Left Behind Act, that certainly did a lot, especially considering he's in favor of vouchers, effectively leaving children behind. And his "Faith Based Initiatives"? Let's not forget how much previous "Faith Based Initiatives" have wound up. Look at Hawaii, or the Crusades. The country has regressed in so many ways, that the next administration will probably be plauged with remnants of this one.

Do some research, the percieved hippie in your rant isn't the main supporter of game banning or game restrictions or what have you. It's the soccer mom parent who thinks that it's contaminating their kid's mind. The same kind of parent who you have most likely.

Please, don't blame everything on hippies.

Nixon at least had some competant people to carry out the job. Although I don't agree with many of the views of Henry Kissenger, he is a very competant diplomat, and could at least carry an opinion for more than a few months, unlike the current secratary of state. The very sad fact in this matter is that Bush despite a wrecked Iraq and weak economy still has a big chance of winning. People seem to have the impression that he's the "national security" candidate, while American citziens are dying everyday because of his folly. This is mostly because of the media. In an effort to counteract the image of a "liberal media" which never had any basis in the first place, they've swung to the right, right into the hands of the Republicans.

For a quick reference for those posting here's the list:

eC-Early Childhood (This really only applies to kiddy games)
E- Everyone (Little or no violence, maybe a little profanity. Think Nintendo)
T- Teen (An average game, most shelf games fall into this catagory)
M- Mature (Think Grand Theft Auto, violence, sexuality, lots of profanity, etc)
A- Adult (I've never seen one of these. Pretty much porno games I would imagine.)

Aran, I see your point. I suppose I didn't take that into consideration. I haven't RPed here before, so my experience is pretty different. Gotta remember to think before I post. (I've seen the ramifications of not doing that around here)

Blech, sites that have a rule of no doing anything with other's charecter's at all are annoying. It makes a lot less sense, because in real life, things are happening and people are talking simultaneously. Imagine watching a movie where every character moved and talked one at a time.

A good story is everything. There are some great text adventures out there that have never made it big because they have no graphics. RPing, for instance, involves no grpahics, but many people find that fun.

Have you ever considered that RPing for the sake of improvement of your own writing is a bad idea? All you're doing by attempting to keep them up with your posts is keeping the flaming topic in the air, instead of letting it crash down where it deserves to be. When an old and worn topic dies, it empties a slot the on the three RP limit and a new one can be started.

It looks like that topic contains vast ammounts of ego. Why not just write your own story about your own character rather than have other people write one for you?

You probably wouldn't get exactly the right mix you want, it would take a long period of trial and error.
