That's awesome! Still snail subbing, but the IRC was a real vexation to my spirit, so at least it's something!

So you see boys and girls...making a point/disagreeing/complaining/arguing can indeed produce results.

A small result admittedly...but still a result.

You can read some of my stories here:

For the future, would would be best if Doug (or anyone else) posted their own comments instead of having someone else do so for them. For several reasons.

1. If the comments are of a nature that require a response, it's impossible to respond directly.
2. There's no way to know for sure if the person who made the comments really wanted them reposted

So, T.L, please tell Doug you reposted his comments and then please invite him to come and post his own comments from now on. We'd like to have him take part in any discussion he feels would be beneficial to him and the rest of this community.

Never meddle in the affairs of a wizard unless you are soggy and hard to light!

I decided to delete the post, CW. You're right, of course. I don't think Doug's interested in potentially be drawn into debates about RoF's email sub policy by signing up and posting, but rather just wanted to warn newer writers against employing particular tactics espoused in this thread, tactics that could prove damaging to their careers. So I guess I'll just say it: there are better ways of making points and getting changes made than by arguing with and annoying editors. In the end, civility earns more respect for one's opinions and positions.

I apologize if I broke any forum rules by making that earlier post.
