Planescape's 10 year anniversary...
Who said that I was a *Hater*? All I said was I didn't care for the plot. I'm all for a second Planescape game... As long as it has a good plot. So call me a grumpy old Dwarf... Grumy old dwarf. PS:T was the game that got me into playing IE games after otherwise having given up after trying BG1 (where I got overwhelmed by boredom). Nad I thought you were a cool fellow. I can't help it... I really didn't like BG1 at first. I was a different person then Later I picked it up and completed it, but it is still "last" on my list of IE games. BG2 takes the crown followed by PS:T and the Icewind Dales. So yeah, Fallout got me into PC gaming and PS:T got me into Infinity Engine games.

What you did today
Trying to convince this poor old body that I am now in a different time zone. I really hate those jet lags. Of course, I don't make it easier for myself when the time difference is 9.5 hours Otherwise just getting used to it being all nice and warm outside after visiting cold and dreary old Denmark.

PETA sidles up to lobsters
Considering how unpleasant being boiled alive is, a 140 year old lobster should know better than letting itself get caught.

PLEASE, PROBLEM WITH THE SECUROM SOLUTION
Distributing files, including exe files from the game disk isn't legal. I have removed your email address, as these forum pages are available to search engines and by extension email address "harvesters". If it is a securom problem, your best bet might be to contact securom who has a support email address available on the support page on their website

wh40k demons
Is that how Relic implemented it? The WH40K daemons are a bit different from that description In the setting, you have the Universe and the "Empyrean" (warp space). Warp space is an alternate reality where thoughts and emotions from the physical universe is given form and shape. Think "Planescape" During an ancient conflict between the Necrons, lead by their C'Tan masters and a race now only known as "The Old Ones" the empyrean was cast into such turmoil, filled with such intensity that the thoughts of hatred, despair and deceit coalesced into sentient beings, becoming the original three "Chaos Gods", Khorne, Nugle and Tzeentch. When the warp disturbances threatened to destroy the physical universe, the Necrons simply withdrew and went into hibernation, awaiting a time when the universe would be more calm. Silly Eldar, being one of the creations of the Old Ones (like most other organic life in the universe) went ahead and created a fourth one all by them selves. Way to go pointy earted suckers. Daemons are "splinters" of those chaos gods, created by them, sometimes destroyed (absorbed) again by them. The way they manifest themselves in the physcial universe is among other things through possession of people with psychic ability (the ability to access the empyrean) yet too weak to defend themselves, through man made warp portals, through summoning rituals (usually requires a host body) and through events of cataclysmic nature. I.e. very strong emotions, like massacres, orgies, whatever, as long as it creates a rift in reality. Sanctioned psychers are those that have been tested by the Inquisition and found strong enough of mind to not succumb to daemonic possession. Some, like Astropaths, goes through the ritual of "soul bonding" where they on a miniscule level unite part of their soul with the Emperor himself, protecting them against unwanted attention. Thousands of those that are found wanting are sacrificed daily to the emperor, to sustain him. Lots of fluff available about the creation and the purpose of the emperor too from the old books.

Description for my book
There will always be a couple of trolls who think it easier to ridicule than to be constructive. Maybe they lack imagination themselves? Can you really start a sentece with "But..." in English?

wh40k demons
Slaanesh demons are generally more attractive than anything that Neo can come up with. One is a manifestation of emotion given sentience, the other is truly an avatar in the common use of the term

What you did today
Good luck I don't think it's your imagination... Still enjoying my vacation on the other side of the world (Denmark). Temperatures varies between 0 adn -8 degrees Celcius and I had forgotten how &%

Movies you have seen recently
Australia. Nice enough movie. Part drama, part humour, a little bit of action, all good.

Why isn't the character named JB?
I have no idea where you got notion that AP would be a NOLF clone. And I've no idea what you're trying to get at. Peace. Worst bickering ever. Is there a cheat code in the game to change MT's name to Joseph Bulock? Seriously, Thorton with a missing 'n' in the middle has to be an undercover name, anagram or something.

Securom problem
Yes. Contact SecuROM and see if they will send you a fixed .exe that is compatible with newer systems. If they refuses... Well, the mods do not like us talking about the other option... That sums it up pretty well >_ Securoms website has a support page with instructions on how to contact and how to get the info (diagnosis) they might need.

I am a sad, sad, sad soul.
Nothing like realising that your planned night of sleep will at best be a two hour nap, before having to get up and go to work again

I am a sad, sad, sad soul.
Hey, which market segment did you think it was aimed at? As for being sad, sad souls, those days ended with the old Black Isle games. Those were the culmination of the 8 and 16 bit gaming culture where I could play the same game for weeks on end. Doomdarks Revenge takes the prize with two months of gaming

Recent Isareli military action in Gaza
What the hell does that mean, when terrorists intentionally kill civilians it's more OK than if a democratic state does it? I think he meant it the other way around. A democratic state (usually) claims to be better than a terrorist organisation, therefore they are expected to put more effort into not behaving as one.
