- This is crazy!!!!!!! I don't remember if I was in that game or not, but
- what the hell, I just got a message from someone apologizing for the way he
- was playing in a game I was in. He apologized to me for playing poorly as he
- called it!!
- In my opinion this has gotten way out of hand. Netrek is a game!!!! It
- is in my opinion, for fun and enjoyment, I mean its not going to help me get
- a job or something!!!!!
- If I keep getting letters like that about people feeling sorry about
- themselves or something, I may just stop playing the game.
