"escapees"?
My what an arrogant term to use,the channel is open to all and has never been a place to escape from.
I don't care what you say about me but to insult people who have and are regulars of a chat room (and it is just a chat room) is pretty well stupid.
And you are always welcome to the room even if you "have outgrown" the people there.

Sorry Paul.

If you're sorry to Paul, delete the comment, because I've duly noted it. That's why I deleted what I said to you in Neil's journal.

I had not encountered indefatigable's journal. Thanks for posting this. It's always good to read a common-sense approach to this sadly over-hyped issue.

Speaking as someone who's more into comics than gaming, the bit in section 3 about parents buying M-rated games for their children because "video game = for children" sounds sadly familiar.
