I have, in fact, played through Mr. Maddock's works, but I do not have them off-hand. (They were also, surprisingly enough, flat-out rejected from the SW tables on account of getting sub-2.0 scores.) -------------------- * Posts: 6936 | Registered: Tuesday, September 18 2001 07:00 |

"I don't particularly want my rich neighbours to use crack as much as they like, let alone my teachers and lecturers, and definately not my boss at work." That's why most people who come to the job drunk get fired immediately. "Yes, drug money is up to no good, but if the government allowed widespread drug use, than wouldn't hospitals, rehab centres and the acts of control/policing/anti-corruption etc guzzle up the revenues, leaving everything the same as before, but with the added bonus of lots more people high on crack, heroin and P?" Aside from the fact that your woefully lacking knowledge of the market has already been corrected, you missed a few things: A. Most smokers/injectors/(whatever you call people who stick stuff on their eyes) do so casually. B. There is no extra policing for drugs under the provided legislation. All forms of enforcement will merely be juxtaposed with current alcohol legislation. C. You fail to understand the definition of the word "corruption"- which, in this instance, is being used to describe the black markets which government-funded hallucinogen distribution would essentially eliminate. (See, I dunno, the last few pages for a slew of black market arguments.) "What else ... drug use is self destructive. I don't want people in positions of power, authority and responsibility to self destruct, there will be problems." (Already addressed) "Well, at least in NZ, there have been three murderers put in jail recently who were high on P and really don't know what happened. Drug use is self destructive until it changes your behavour, then it becomes harmful to others." If you get super-crazy-drunk and axe a man, then you are charged for murder. Drug use should be no different- what you are providing is an example of murder. If you plan on shooting up on any given evening, it's best to do so in a situation where you stand a reduced chance of doing something destructive. (And for reference, if "P" is referring to PCP, it'd still be illegal according to Alec's plan.) "Finally, long term drug use is bad, negative effects on areas the drugs have contact with. Weed affects brain, lungs etc. Maybe there would be lawsuits similar to those being carried out with cigarettes? Would advertising for these drugs be banned like for cigarettes? Many of these drugs are addictive, so is the government just wanting to get in on some ching-ching while these drug users kill themselves softly?" First off, I find your comparison of hallucinogen usage and feminism to be obscene. (RE: your last sentence.) Second off, if the weed comes with a warning (which would ideally read, "I'm roughly half as deadly as a cigarette and infinitely more pleasurabe"), there can be no lawsuits. Thirdly, assuming they're dealt with in a way that cigarettes are, no- they wouldn't have advertisements. "Would this mean steroids become legal? What about the problems which come with this?" I doubt steroids would become legal (although that's Alec's call, ultimately), but even if they were to become such, any directors of athletic events would merely scan players for steroid usage. (And considering that only athletes would do that sort of crap, I'm not sure what actually changes.) -------------------- 人 た ち を 燃 え る た め に 俺 は か れ ら に 火 を 上 げ る か ら 死 ん だ Posts: 6936 | Registered: Tuesday, September 18 2001 07:00 |

FYI, the Adventurer's Club scenarios don't have a "series" page. The Demon Island, Doom Moon and Grich!!! scenarios are, inarguably, "related". Perhaps, in order not to confuse noobies, you could add astericks to note which scenarios are terrible or untried? And what about design utilities? Anywho! There are 286 scenarios for Blades of Exile, and I have designed 18 (6.3%). That's less than I remember, but so be it. -------------------- * Posts: 6936 | Registered: Tuesday, September 18 2001 07:00 |

To be precise, it's the sound of breasteses being groped. (Which goes a ways to explain that manga-esque scene from the first episode.) -------------------- 私のバラドですそしてころしたいいらればころす Posts: 6936 | Registered: Tuesday, September 18 2001 07:00 |

Family Guy is a hit-and-miss show. It was cancelled because, despite being good, it had way too many episodes where nothing really happened except for trendy jerking for thirty minutes (twenty with commercials). -------------------- 私のバラドですそしてころしたいいらればころす Posts: 6936 | Registered: Tuesday, September 18 2001 07:00 |

This one could easily be a three-way: One person for legalization, another for decriminalization, and another for illegalization. Just a thought. (Of course, since Alec will be the former and got here first, I can't really participate. :P ) -------------------- 人 た ち を 燃 え る た め に 俺 は か れ ら に 火 を 上 げ る か ら 死 ん だ Posts: 6936 | Registered: Tuesday, September 18 2001 07:00 |

Were you following the case? He clearly did not "fiddle" any of the children in question. God knows he's problemed in many ways and needs therapy but badly, but he couldn't have been jailed by a responsible judge. ... Mind you, I'm not biased in any way whatsoever. (Honestly, I think he was saved by his white skin more than anything else.) -------------------- 人 た ち を 燃 え る た め に 俺 は か れ ら に 火 を 上 げ る か ら 死 ん だ Posts: 6936 | Registered: Tuesday, September 18 2001 07:00 |

Bandits II. (And, to a lesser extent, Mad Ambition.) Their culture? Well, the only ones you'll find on Ermarian are the evil, banditry-practicing types, since they were booted off of the planet by a ginormous demigod-dragon millenia ago. They now have a utopian system in a cave-dimension somewhat like Exile but more hostile. They have an intensely long history I won't bother writing down. -------------------- * Posts: 6936 | Registered: Tuesday, September 18 2001 07:00 |
