This is an outrage! When the laws that are clearly written and known by all are so flagrantly dismissed by wanton agents of chaos like this Arnelos, no one is safe!

And sorry for the threadjack.

Arnelos should place the following phrase in his sig file:
"I broke the rules of SPIN and all I had to do was post this stupid sig."

Yes, Togas does have a better phrase.
SPIN 3 will have to use it instead.

As a fellow MASTer I'd like to suggest the following.
"S.P.I.N. on this"

Two votes for 'no'!
SPIN is great and entertaining. Hats off to UnO for a wonderful idea. But I do miss the comments, the dialogue, the jabs, the retorts, and the triple thumbs up for something really inspirational, that is part of a regular thread.
UnO can then strip the comments for the collating the articles.
Kudos to Arnelos for testing the waters - but I think you will end up with the sig nonetheless.

Funny thing about that... apparently, I'm the only one who didn't read that post very closely (or at all) the first time

I see that Beta has stumbled upon the REAL reason for this 'poll'.
DO WE WANT RESPONSES IN THE SPIN THREAD?
It also Appears that Arnelos, at least, caught the subtle humor in the first post.

It'd be better if it were correct--most of the time now I just idle and play Red Faction. Then again, it's just like a chatroom with guns, so I won't tear him down or anything.
(Actually, it ain't half bad if you consider the rest of the quality come-backs )
