Wowsers folks!

Wowsers folks!

Lots of angry people out there today.
So, to further my goodly gaming let me take a different tact.

I love me some games.
I love me the folks who make games and play games. They are some of my favorite people.

To that end, i would rather say thank you than to air my spleen and shout about being treated unfairly.
