Substitutes make life nicer

They really do. Case in point, take this conversation on the Necro guild line:

   Chats (last 15 of 102 available):
 
   Nabiki [19-L]: ive never played that
   Nabiki [19-L]: better get my booty to raylorn
   Rapocco [33-P]: is there an info file?
   Flamerus [13-V]: k but i need a min xplainin vamps to a friend
   Shadowhawke [Lady]: the instructions are there, it's fun!
   Saidin [Marq-V]: bah boot
   [->GUILD<-]: Halix rises from the crypt.
   Halix [13-V]: lo all

   Flamerus [13-V]: lol
   Macros [30-P]: Hi Halix

   Flamerus [13-V]: there r instructions u can read

Post a new comment:

Three things:

  1. New comments get placed in a "draft" status and will NOT show up on the site until I explicitly approve it. Sometimes that happens within 24 hours.
  2. I reserve the right to reject/remove inappropriate comments.
  3. Sometimes I'll reply to a comment directly in email--so make sure your email address is correct.

If you can't for some reason post a comment, send me an email: willg at bluesock dot org.

Your name:


Your e-mail address (this doesn't get displayed to anyone--sometimes I'll reply directly to you):
