I wasn't familiar with Rosenberg but from reading the article it seems that he was pretty awesome.

soo horrible I couldn't resist passing it along....

"The problem with a UDP joke is that you have no idea if people got it."

Sadly reporting, Joel Rosenberg has died.

aieeeeeeeeee... I'm exceedingly saddened.. He was a great man in a bunch of ways. Many of which were listed in the above piece. Most don't realize his involvement in politics and gun usage.

For many people, they knew Joel from The Guardians of the Flame series of books, where a bunch of D&D players were magically transported into their D&D world. It was written many years ago and copied by many. I remember reading and enjoying them greatly in college. (over 20 years ago)

But it is for two other series that I remember Joel. First the Masada series. A science fiction series of interstellar travel and settlement. He took a look at it from the "Israeli" settlement and how Israeli's became spectacular interstellar mercenaries.

The other books were D'Shai and Hour of the Octopus. I hope he appreciates what I now write..

Balance is the way to remember him...

Finally, for a select few, they'll remember that he appeared on the radio broadcasts of Phil. A. Delphia Secret Agent 86.

Joel Rosenberg, RIP. A man to be remembered.

Over the years, UNCENSORED! has stayed relevant by embracing changes

in the way people live the online lifestyle.

You don't have a FB page for Citadel -- let me know if you'd like some help setting one up. And a Twitter account, too. >;-D

Welcome! I see that you're using telnet, but if you want a more 21st

century experience you could also hit the site with a web browser. (Us

old-skool types still stick with the console, though.)

I SSH in ... Telnet, meh. :p

Pardon our appearance and weird things happening while we upgrade.

That's Rule #4, right?

Still trying to work out some of the bugs in the new code. Sorry about

that.
I try not to put y'all through this often but when we do it's a pain

in the neck and I appreciate you bearing with me.

IG, beta-testing any? I'm glad I don't pop in here often enough to be subjected to such tortures! ;-)

Aahz,

A sad loss for us all. Never heard of him but I respect what I've heard of his work. :) Especially as a CRPG player myself. Some of the CRPGs I've played apparently were based on his works.

Oh, and to avoid having to scrolls quite far through that web site, you can link directl to the article: http://www.shotinthedark.info/wp/?p=20396

so tessa, a girl living near hamburg/germany wanted to do her 16th 
birthday party.

she used facebook to invite her friends.

she made the big mistake not to check "private party" and some of her
friends got the good idea that some more people where missing from
that party.

so in the end some 10k people accepted that facebook invitation and
showed up to that party...

the little village now looks like cologne after the carnival.

Do you have a URL for a news report or something along those lines where you got this info from?

Oh, and happy belated birthday, IGgy. I posted that to your FB page, although I know how infrequently you troll there ... ;-)

What I would like is a complete Citadel client environment that runs as a Facebook app. Get working on it right away please. It is technically possible to do.

Pretty soon I am going to be unveiling an initial attempt at a blogging engine for Citadel, and I will definitely want testers (which will evolve into free blog hosting for anyone among us that wants it).

Sorry me no code. :p Although if you're paying, I'll find some guy in India to get it done for ya! ;p

Any way to clean up the <w>ho list? All these msnbot entries, and (not logged in)

entries. :p
