Well, despite being a new member (maybe 3 months now...?) I'm going to put my
foot in it and agree with Lady J. here. But GridSec has a point that we should
avoid random speculation. What's really bugging me in this whole affair is FASA's
website seems to have no mention of it (as of last night, I haven't checked
today yet). Only Decipher does. And most of those Decipher fans don't even know
who or what FASA is... We should all make a strong showing on the board Decipher
set up if for no other reason than to ensure Decipher realizes FASA has a strong,
active, and large customer base.

But more than that I'd like to ask GridSec to hold back on everyone for a few
days until this 'mystery repost' thing clams down. I've noticed several emails
of 'banned' topics showing up again as well as other things and at present it's
real hard to tell what's current and what's old with about half the stuff hitting
my inbox.

I'd hate for someone to get unsubbed or something for a post they made back
before a topic was closed.
