I don\'t really want to get into an argument with you over this, but you are now making this personal, and labelling individuals with high post counts as spammers. I\'d like to think I don\'t spam (well not too often anyway - I try not to

). If a new person comes to this forum (or any forum I am a long term member of for that matter) I will welcome them - this has nothing to do with my damn post count, I think it\'s nice to be welcomed when you are new and is only common courtesy and good manners in my opinion.
Really, if this place is now making you so unhappy, just leave for a bit, we\'ll still be here if you want to come back. I happen to still like it here and despite what you say about this forum being dead, I like and respect the many people who come here and value the community we are creating.
I have had a lot of fun from Runescape and have many good things to say about it (some bad things too

), but you are wrong, this project is very different. Apart from the obvious visual differences, Planeshift has a much greater narrative element and a complete different focus on role playing, and has been said on numerous occasions this will remain a free project. Many of these features are exactly what RS lack and hence is very appealing to many of us who want a more in depth gaming experience.
I know you are angry, but this gives you no right to start flaming. I\'m sure you are a great guy really, but to be honest saying you are going to leave is not going to make a bit of difference. These things take time - deal with it.
