Eh, it happens. Shecky and I got into it over Scott Lynch in the past, but I think I was wayyy more diplomatic than that guy, and I was just expressing my frustration at a crappy situation rather than assailing the author. We were able to come to an agreeable resolution.
Those characters are all over the internet. I think we should count ourselves fortunate that we see so little of it here.
And yeah, Jim always does an excellent job when he has to educate someone
He got angry.. I can't believe he used the word "goddamn". That must have been quite a shck to the poster. How often does the freaking
author come down on you in a forum?!
EDIT: I have been spending WAY too much time here, lately... I think I'm in a slump.
