Well, thanks - to you and all for the support. Anyone that is here (and was there) knows that the VN Wiz 8 board was dead/dying - for any number of reasons.So, the need became great enough and an alternative arose. Since then (IMHO) the traffic has been great - both in flow and in content - some really interesting topics and enlightening discussion.
For those of us that are here, things seem (near) perfect - whether it be talk of Wizardry, game review, commiserating, just getting up on the soap box for a few minutes, ... I am really glad I did this.
As for the VN, I used to have a pretty good relationship with them (or at least with Eric/Ilbard - the managing editor). But I don't think so anymore ... and sharing many of the same feelings that are being voiced here ... I don't think I will miss it.
