Okay, let me try this again... ;) I do feel though that you can seperate out the basic "theme" of the novel and it has grains of truth... even if the specific storyline is daft. Without clarifying what you mean by "grains of truth&...  [Read More]

Just a tip, you can use a program called "Quake Chat" to filter out all but the chat messages from a log file. But still funny. ;) If you host Siege, you'll get tons of people. Anything else is a gamble. But I recommend using OJP Basic, so...  [Read More]
