This can possibly cause some problems, IMO. For a couple of months,
I was getting some serious flak for decisions I made/flaws I properly
RPed concerning my character. Luckily it's died down finally. It
was almost enough to make me quit the game, and considering the
number of the people who were giving me (and the GM) flak for it that
had nothing to do with the game, I once or twice also considered
avoiding Undernet's #shadowrun.

On the other hand, it's by FAR the best and most accurate definition
of the word I've seen :)
