Oh Lord, almost a decade of RM mocking me in his sig has come to an end... Yeah, it was the juxtaposition of two of my comments that made for an unfortunate amalgam. As I remember, they were 'freedom of speech makes idiots feel they have something of value to say' along with ''we want the amtct back.'

So, yeah, village idiot here... :shock:

“I…” Had she just called him fat? “I am just a different species, that’s all.”

“Well nature sure does have a sense of humour then,” Styanar said. “Shall we go inside? It’d not be a good idea for me to be spotted by others.”

(@ greypanther: I agree very much with the dinosaur bit - I use that term to describe myself over my futile attempts at using stuff like VPNs and smart phones, etc. I consider the end state you gave decidedly not cuddly though. :D )

On the subject of bringing him back, I just noticed Bugmeister hasn't posted in over a year. He'd been a regular, if not frequent, poster up until then.

I do hope he's alright.

I was in touch with him by DM a little over a year ago, and he was doing okay. - I think he was involved in a house move / renovations along with working on a novel, as I remember.

Yeah, I miss his wit. I hope he's still lurking.

He was simply too irritating and constantly insulted other forum members. Even if he were allowed back I don't know that this behaviour would change.

This ^. Also, it was almost impossible to have a discussion thread, without it being derailed into the mud.

Quite relieved to see that I'm not alone in not missing him. I though I might be a bit of a curmudgeon!

Be good to see some others back though.

Any idea how antilogic is doing? RM?

Haha, yeah, he sure was a crusader for verbosity.

Seems fine, though I don't have as much to do with them as I used to (different games, different interests, not as much MMOing etc). They seem to be moving on positively with life :).

Ah good, another one of the pillars of the community is back... :)
Now could you just nip down to Sydney and get the Chuckle Brothers back in here please? :D ( It was Gavrushka who christened them that! :P )

Back on topic: I am surprised that several people think he was actually the Spawn of Satan. I mean I know amtct was a bit like Marmite, but really? I thought of that option being a variation on Sausages really... :wink:
