Debating, banning and hoping...

Hi,

just wanted to put my modest contribution to the recent ban of metcalfe (wich is by now the second most renowned ban after the syndics' '-) ).

I think this is unfair since, even if we feel anger and acid in his comments, we all know that the facts remain solid. I shouldn't say myself "because of Greg" but because he's just a man, with different desires and expectations coming at different times, with a real life and with a strong involvement in various fields.

The biggest grief, for me (playing and buying Gloranthan games since 1980), is the too optimistic and non realistic schedules announced for the pas 26-7-8 years, the deal with AH, and the fragile structure of Issaries to support a reasonable production of supplements each year.

Some of us (as I), might be circonspect by hearing good news from Rick and then going to the website to (re)discover a major information : ILH2 is due out in march 2006 (an elder secret of Glorantha I think).

The fact that we know there's a Prax /Wastes pack almost ready somewhere, the same for pavis ; the impressive list we all saw on Issaries schedule back in the Herowars era ; the mostly sleeping website... All of this keeps us perplex and worried.

We all love playing in Glorantha and we are eager to discover soma new aspects about her. Some talented writers are there to share this knowledge with us but there's been often something wrong near the end of the process.

I think that's what Peter's (nonetheless nasty) Words were about.

Long Live Glorantha
