Ratspeak does get picked on occassionaly, at least by me, but then he
doesn't indulge too often in misbehaving around my plot lines. <g>

As for Irish, Faerie and Griffyn. Irish and Griffyn have both had some
flack off've my characters, just not to the extent that Paul's have.
But then, they're not picking on my nice kind considerate bad guys. :)
Faerie is a new guy as far as I'm concerned. Nobody I have on the list
is going to know he/she used to be Ice, and at the moment I have no
reason to attack him.

Flattery - interesting form of flattery. And no they're probably not
alone on top of the heap. Just where I and Paul's bad guys are
concerned.

In the main it is a plot device. Presently an effort to draw them out
into open debate and argument, provoke them in a manner that has worked
before - something Paul's heroically resisting by indulging in some
attacks of his own. It's not that Lillith, Lynch, Quinn etc are the
penultimate runners of Shadowtk, it's simply because they're directly
involved against people who honestly hate them, and will bait them at
every opportunity.

It probably seems a lot worse than it actually is, because of the amount
of posts Paul and I send into the list.
