If it were not for the fact Vinnie hands out cookies so gratuitiously that 
giving them out has little meaning any more, i would give lilwolf a whole 
pack.

I don't want BM to be a "U" rated game, nor do I think it was ever meant to 
be. I once had a problem with an RPed discussion in one of my realms, 
involving the morality of killing and the effects it has on the psyche, etc. 
It was a great RP, but I found it hard to read and deal with, so i asked the 
players to please keep it in private (at this time the ignore button was not 
working or I would have temporarily put them on ignore for a bit). It then 
stopped being postedf to the who,.e realm. I woud never have thought that 
that would have been cause to stop people talking and RPing about it; thats 
simply unfair on the 50-60 odd other players.

The Internet is truly a wealth of exotic and meaningful information. Each 
new nugget of knowledge it brings to me makes me a little bit stupider.
