The only other forums in which I was active was www.ClassicTW.com - Index page and it (and the game) seem pretty dead now. I always think about going back, mostly because someone wrote me a script that I had tried to figure out.

It is an old text-based space game that has not necessarily changed much since 1985. People learned how to automate horribly monotonous parts of it, which some people hate, and are banned on some servers.

Some guy harassed me because my script blew him up. I was on a mission while deployed to Afghanistan, with at least a two-second lag each way. He improved his method, I revised my script, and blew him up again.

Sometimes, I just sit and talk with people in World of Warcraft, but I have never cared to write about it off-line.

My local friends rarely seem to want to talk in-person. Now that work is picking up (I went from four to ten hours last week. This week should be even better and continue improving!), hopefully I will finally be able to make new friends.

I appreciate you guys tolerating me.
