I just had a wonderfull idea!  

there seems to be a problem in this list about to much cerebalism on the part of hard-core-RQ-veterans that post msg soo esoterical or complicated that a newbie to RQ can't understand them 70% of the time, and the fact that thay hardly answer to those people questions on account of they'r shall i say...stupid simplicity.

Well i'm from an country in Europe that could easilly be labelled "RPG wasteland", in all my life i have NEVER seen a RQ product in here so the only acess i have with RQ is this list and the files my E-mail friends send me.  

I do not think a new list is needed for newbies to RQ, instead i propose the following.  

If YOU are new to RQ and wish (like me) the answer to questions some may deem very simple then put  

NB <subject>  

in the subject of your msg  

This way everybody will know that this is a msg from a newbie, problably asking things that *some* Gloranthaphiles *may* be inclined not to answer because they are *too* *simple*.  

This way people like those will not need bother even to read it, Gloranthaphiles that are willing to waste a few minutes explaining something *simple* will do so, and you can get your answers.

And everybody's happy :)    

And if this doesn't work and most people on this list won't give a rat's ass about us and our doubts, then i will sadlly have too admit *something* is *very* wrong with this list, and the rules of the road should include:  

5 - If you are not a fanatic Gloranthaphile, if you haven't played RQ for

     n years, if you do not have enough RQ material to make a Golrantha 
     Atlas and are not versed in Shamanistic Philosophy, then get the  
     hell out of here!
 

Prove me wrong, ok guys?
