I've always admitted that I'm not the type of person who posts up a storm. Do I need to be? Whether I post a lot or
not I'm still a very regular visitor to Retrogames and its boards and I consider this place my "home" on the web.

Until now CA was the only place someone would be allowed to post about non gaming related conversation. While I may
have over stated the amount of obscene stuff that goes on here, there is always a chance that opening a post will
result in something thats not appropriate for opening while in work or in front of family. Opening a post here
shouldn't have to be a gamble where the result can get me in trouble with people in my real life.

So now I have my own board. After I read all of the gaming related forums I now have a place where I know I can talk
about non gaming related issues safely. Sure I may not post on a regular basis. But since when do I have to? Last I
checked you were the only mod here on RG that actually posts on his forum dialy. Even Atila who owns the site doesnt
post regularly.

I've always had and probably always will have a temper. I'm also very opinionated which isnt a great combo. When I get
pissed I usually blow up and overreact but I tend to cool off easily. I also don't hold too many grudges. Once I cool
down I can usually apologize to and forgive anyone I'm fighting with.

But that all said, and though I may have overreacted, dont you believe that my rants may have had some merrit? CA was
the only place to go for off topic discussion on RG, and I still believe that a lot of perople who wanted to talk
"straight talk" were scared off. Contrary to popular belief not all newbies know in advance what goes on here.

But again, this isnt the case now with my Off Topic board. We all now have a place where we can go where we know what
to expect. No unexpected surprises. Hopefully now we can all get along a little better. I'll try to keep future
rants to a minimum but because of my personality I cant make any promises.
