And another big flaming WTF-award goes to Jonathan!
First of all... dude, learn how to spell. Use a spell check, at the very least. If I had a dollar for every spelling error in this post... well, at least it would recoup some of the money I wasted on Narcissus in Chains.
It became a hotbed of negitivity and name calling. If this was in the official forums, the offending parties would have been banned, the post moderated and everything kept nice and civil.
Nice to know they fully endorse freedom of speech and everything.
You know, they should be grateful that people are griping in plain sight. Then, if they bothered to care, they could see what fans (and yes, many of us are still fans, in our own ways) truly thought. Now they'll just drive all the snark underground, where it will fester and grow and get even stronger because of it. Remember in Star Wars, when Princess Leia said "The more you tighten your grip, Tarkin, the more star systems will slip through your fingers" [pp]? Yeah. It's gonna be like that. And do you remember who WON at the end? That's right. The Rebel Alliance. Not the evil Empire. Let's hope for a similar result here.*
* = NB: I love Darth Vader. I am in no way trying to say that LKH and her people are half as cool, organized, or efficient as the Empire.

I think he has more problems with the guest book becoming a second forum. I think I saw people fight with each other over several pages. But even this shouldn't be such a problem or am I wrong?? I never moderated a forum and don't join too many of them, so there's a certain lack of experience. Still, I don't think, that it's so complicated...
Our dear Jon sees it the other way round, he likes the idea of moderators banning people and other forum members keeping the oh so negative folks under control. (sorry for my flimsy grammar)

PS. Meh, don't worry about your flimsy grammar. It's legiable. That counts.
