About a third of the traffic over the last two days has been quite
unabashedly off-topic. Please attempt to push it back towards some
semblance of relevance to Shadowrun, or move it off-list.
Thanks....

I have both Dvixen's and Gurth's address here. As a matter of fact Gurth,
you're going to be getting a surprise in the mail Real Soon Now (tm).

On that note, I kindly ask that postings on this thread and the several
other threads that are currently OFF-Topic be brought on topic, or
relegated to private email.

The list has really been OT lately, and I think we really really need more
SR discussion. Or at least fight about SR, not about each other :)

The number of off topic posts is getting pretty high again. Please reign it
in, and also make sure that you use the [OT] header on any off topic posts.

(That's [OT], not (OT) ;) )

Thanks,
Adam

Everyone,

This is just a note that for the next 24-48 hours, off-topic threads are
perfectly allowable. I don't think we're gonna get any serious Shadowrun
discussion done, anyway. . .

Maybe not now, but just consider the discussion that'll be done in the
aftermath!

Definitely. Also very good thinking under pressure (not giving a
knee-jerk response, which I've seen on another list - very, very
quickly retracted, BTW).

All,

Off-Topic threads should be brought onto Shadowrun relevancy or left to die
before Friday.

Thank you!

And here I thought you were being altruistic ;)

Oops, this is OT too, I suppose...
