Also, I think this OT thread has gone on long enough for member's to have made
their point.

Much as I'm not a fan of WotC myself, let's either bring this thread back
on-topic or let it fade.

Thanx!

Ahem, the "topic" of this thread has become WotC bashing and the waning of
M:TG popularity. Not an topic related to SRTCG and the arena of SRCard
discussion. Hence the terms on-topic (related to SRTCG) and off-topic (related
to matters other that SRTCG).

I have requested this thread be brought back around to matters relating to
SRTCG or dropped. Further posting along this [ADMIN] channel or the original
thread should be applied accordingly.

'Nuff said.

3 points:

1. Go read the FAQ at http://www.coastnet.com/~dvixen and learn how to
reply to posts within the guidelines of this mailing list.
2. Posts about WotC that don't relate to the SRTCG aren't on topic on this
list.
3. Telling Loki that you're right and he's wrong is a very bad idea.

I think the kids a newbie... He said the thread was related to the "Topic
line". I think he meant the SUbject Line, and while the subject line (for
once) matched the topic of the thread, it was indeed Off Topic :]

Don't I usually start these things? Oh yeah, If I had, it would actually
be interesting, if not amazingly annoying :]

This thread was declared dead twice-over. It was stated those continuing to
post to it would be unsubbed.

The above count has been removed from the list.
