[Roland]

I noted that Roland had been off line 18 days. Months ago, we were mucking about in a DII game and had hoped to play together a bit.

I guess that's not to be.

When you get that rig up and running you drop me a line. I'll log bag in for some time with you, regardless of the state of the game. At present, I have better things to play - at least until they come out with some more fixes. I got plenty of enjoyment out of D3, but the current state is not satisfying to me any longer. Rather than ruin any future chance at enjoyment I've signed off for awhile.

Also, I'm with Bolty and Mav on this one: if you don't like the game, fine - don't trash on others who do. The game isn't a cesspool. It was worth every penny I paid for it, regardless of whether it lived up to all the hype. My biggest regret is not getting to play with more of the old crowd, but so it goes. The game's not "dead" - the servers are still very much active. So long as they're online, I'll find a reason to come back every so often.
