Twin you may have a point there about a "base",... I play random players and have met many many many people I enjoy,... That does not excuse the abuse by other random players. As for my friends,... that is "online avatars",.. i am selective and will be,... not interested in a boat load of avatars that I have not met or know. If you have NEVER ran across a pervert,.. vulgar or downright nasty person here,.... my hat is off to you. However the forum is full of those who have experienced what I am talking about.
As for nine years,... LOL,... I signed up nine years ago,... I have only been playing 200 days now,..
