FearfulSymmetry: Great post, Agent! Happy birthday to the thread and thanks to all of you for being here. :)
Agreed and thanks to you as well :)

superstande: Hi, I'm fine thanks. Relaxing with Trails in the sky and some potato chips.
Did some walking today, that was quite refreshing.
Yeah it's a nice picture. I was once at this party where people were asked to wear something... 19th Century clothes or at least something very uplifting. I have been interested in these clothes since :) don't really own anything yet.
Glad to hear that :).
Well those clothes are rather eccentric but some of them look really good :)

AgentBirdnest: Happy 6-month anniversary, Conversational Free-For-All Thread.

I love this place. Quite a lot. If there is such thing as a "virtual home" (and I don't see why the hell there wouldn't be), this is it for me. I come here everyday, enjoy the wonderful people and company, and feel like I'm part of something good; a wonderful little community that means a lot to me, accepts me for who I am, cares about me, and lets me care about them in return.
The friendliness, kindness, generosity, and general awesomeness of the people here is really overwhelming. I hope this thread sticks around another 6 months, and another, and another. I can't imagine leaving. The people here are too good to let go... (and on top of all that, I have a deep personal attachment to this thread. Something I won't try to explain.)
I hope everyone loves being here as much as I do...
You people are the coolest...

So... Thanks to Crow for setting the place up. Thanks to GOG for letting us live here. And of course, most importantly, thanks to every single person here who contributes to making this the best thread of all time.

Here's to six great months, and hopefully many more to come. *toasts some of Owl's Legendary Hot Chocolate™*

Thank you for your words, with which I totally agree. I'm looking forward to spend the next 6 months with you.

I just wonder: why isn't this post high rated?

Beautifully said, and I agree wholeheartedly. Hugs and waves all around!
Good evening, everyone!

I hope you are all doing good and are having a lovely evening?

*big hugs and silly waves*

Thank you both for the answer, and my apologies for the misconception. It just seemed that with all the games that had Swastikas edited out, and scenes removed just for showing/mentioning Hitler, that Germany was trying to remove any references to the war, but I see that is just an isolated case for some games and not a general policy. So thank you for that.

moonshineshadow: Yeah something like that :D
I am hoping that you all will get bored with this and stop making up things. I should have never told you about my holidays ;-)
As Endre said, we only tease because we like you so much. You are are absolute favourite German lady. :-)

*big hug*

moonshineshadow: *big return hug*
Also I don't know why you all want pictures. Owl sees me everday in her lab, you are spying all the time on us with your telescope, so there should be no need for pics :P
Because who can resist pictures of a naked pretty lady at a nudist beach. :-)

YAY! Moon said she is doing good! *does happy dance* :-)

I am so glad to hear you say that.

I am good, thank you, a little tired as well, but other than that I had a lovely evening. I am a bit disappointed I never got a phone call I was waiting for today, but there is nothing really I can do about that.

*lots of big happy hugs*
Who watches cartoons here?

Yep, the holidays are still having some effect, so not back to the normal ok yet :P

Glad to hear that you had a nice evening. Hopefully you get your call tomorrow :-)

I liked to watch cartoons as well as animes, but in the last month somehow I never really found time for that. Is there something you are watching at the moment?

It could be worse, just be glad you didn't go anywhere near Torquay for your holidays.

Come on people I'm not seeing high rated on any of our wonderful Miss Moon's posts.

Good evening *big hug*
Thank you. I have a relaxing evening. Staying on the forums and watching the football women's world cup. What about your evening?

You're welcome and no need for apologies. My earlier might have been not that clear concerning that. I think that the removal of the Nazi symbolism and the removal of any refercences to them are two different things. One is based on german law and the other one is mostly done by the developers / publisher in preemptive obedience without actually knowing the german law (most recent example would be the new Wolfenstein). And while i can tolerate the first one to a certain degree (although i still find it riddiculous) the second one is much more problematic imho because it can lead to those misconceptions...

And that same thing was done with movies in the years after WW2. There's actually been a version of Casablanca without any Nazisor references to them in Germany in the 1950s....

Stop talking about the war.

*tackle hug*
The only time I really watch them now is when I am visiting one of my brothers and their kids are watching them. Sometimes at friends who have kids, or the children's hospice, but that's about it. I used to watch them more, as well as anime, but I have not been watching much TV or movies recently.

I hope your good felling will last a long time. I think a holiday that long should give at least a whole week of goods. :-)

I hope so too. If I don't I will have to chase it up and see what is going on. I just want an answer, and to know what the complications were with the initial results. Hopefully it will be okay.

*big return thank you hug*
