Oooh just say you let him/her. Please, pretty please.
People should not be afraid of their governments. Governments should be afraid of their people.

Since I am not well versed in the history of the IE modding community, someone care to explain?

Mprilla : sikret = Superscript : IA.

Actually, mprilla was more hated than sikret, because he used to flame other people a lot and would sign up at IE communities and spam ~300 posts advertising his Superscript and Yahoo group. His Yahoo sites (and his pride) got blasted into Oblivion when he spammed Bioware with invitations to his group.

Older than that, too. Way way back, when usenet was the primary way of recreational gamesmanship,  he became a hated and omnipresent troll; comp.sys.ibm.pc.games.strategic was a battleground for some pretty vicious flamewars, and he spammed visited there.

And when I mean "back in the day", I mean that I was on something that read something like comp.sys.ibm.pc.games.strategic, and this new visionary guy named Brad Wardell had this little startup shop called "Stardock Systems" and a way cool new game called "Galactic Civilizations" which had a small following as an idea and was just in its infancy, only in order to play it you had to purchase and use a brand-new visionary OS called "OS2", put out by IBM. (I did. It rocked. Then it dies, and now people say "pc's" instead of "ibm or mac?". But that is off topic, because I am as old as the hills and my mind wanders).

The timeline gets fuzzy in my head, though, because before that there were the BBS's - and I remember being on one of the Commodore 64 BBSs.

What I do remember was between that dude and BC3K trams kered (I refuse to type the name forwards, for i do not want to summon evil) there was no peace for a 20-something gamer who just wanted to discuss actual, you know.... computer games?
