Does anyone else find the move eeriely coinicidental with about the time all the pre-ordering probably stopped. Hmmm, we all pre-order, Markus gets new digs. Interesting, very interesting. I'd say we got someone a new pad. Hope it kicks ass Markus and keep up the good work.

To be honest, I don't even find the suggestion amusing.

I'm not sure if you're saying this as a snide remark or just as a little 'joke'. I'll just say this and you can apply it to your remark as needed. Markus works and earns his money just like everyone else, so I guess he has a right to spend it any way he chooses.

wow, I thought it was just a little tongue-in-cheek remark. Don't know why people are getting so uptight about it.

Once again the lack of 'tone' in print rears its ugly head.

damn , let me clear the air, I in no way meant any disrespect to markus, i was just joking around, i'm sure that he works very hard to provide us this game and earn his keep, i bust my ass everyday of the week just to make a living and i'm sure he does too, i was just trying to make a little joke. I guess print really does have no tone but don't take the stuff so seriously when the name is Faroo, i mean what the hell kinda name is that. Notice I always end my threads with telling Markus to keep up the good work. I discovered this game at ootp3 and have been hooked ever since. If my last post in this thread offended anyone in anyway i apologize as that was not my intent. I would like to say however that there does seem to be a lot of bickering in here over a lot of way people post and that its all just text and words. None of this is stone print the way. Nothing worse than seeing someone bash a suggestion or opinion. If you disagree than just say so, don't call the guy an idiot or tell him his idea is stupid. We should all spend more time playing these great games and less time tearing each other apart. But i do agree with people in one respect. Unless you are making the game or create it, I don't think you have a right to lay into it. Markus busts his ass to create these and for all the lines of code this thing must have it seems disrespectful to tell him that he is wrong or the game is bad or faulty because this feature isn't in here. We all made the decision to give up our money for the game and if we aren't satisfied with it we should ask for a refund, not bitch about the game.

I thought it was funny.

I guess if you didn't think it was funny, you need to get a sense of humor. Maybe try watching Seinfeld instead of the Golden Girls.

Faroo,

I, in turn, apologize as well. In the current environment it's difficult to remain humorous when your trying to explain a point of view in response to over 700 customer comments about the game's release in the last 7 days. Nerves get frayed, and a lot of things that would have been funny aren't. Sorry.

As do I, sometimes it is just hard to tell the "mood" of a post.

Hmmm, off topic you say?
"There are those who will say the topic has been exhausted so to speak..."
OOTP6 - To be (released early) or not to be (released early), That is the question...

Frankly my Dear - I VERY much give a damn!

HeHeHe!!!!! ROFLMAO! I C R A C K myself up!
I really need a baseball fix - back to OOTP5!!!!
