darkplanetar: damn!! scripts? they have time to play all games?
Come now, you've gotten plenty of games from this thread since you started participating. If you have time to play ALL those games, surely others do too don't you think? Lets not denounce the truly silent lurking ninjas when threads like this are the sole reason for their existence. Sure a thank you would be nice and appreciated but when codes are dropped in the open, its their ninja oath that allows them to get away without saying a word.
And also (not related to you or anyone in particular), just because people say hello or good morning in this thread doesn't mean they don't use scripts either. It makes them friendly ninjas for sure but I personally wouldn't put it past *some* to be using scripts themselves. Even when gifters ask for a quote or pm, there are a handful of people who respond in seconds everytime. Heck, I wouldn't put it past some of the more common recipients to silently lurk away other codes and not say anything every so often to not seem overly greedy. Its happened before in threads like this so why should now be an exception. Not saying it in a negative way - just saying it matter of factly as this behavior is common over any ninja thread in any forum, private or public. Free games bring out all sorts of characters.
As long as there are ninja threads, there will always be the dilemma of how to drop codes so those lurkers don't have a chance. Its the gifters choice on how to do it and if they don't get a thanks, its the chance they take. Besides, even if the lurker doesn't say thanks, there are plenty of good people
here who pick up that slack and give thanks. Its kind of what sets the GOG community apart from the rest even with our share of bad ninja behavior.
