As a Gamer I,

One reason the web has turned into a vast array of micro-niches is so that people can comfortably communicate with the like-minded, that being so much less challenging and consistently self-validating. I am terribly sorry for having misread this group and launched a sub-thread that I thought would help in an appreciation of the game but has turned out to be painful for some (hm).

Obviously no proof, one way or the other, is sufficient to the close-minded, but I would happily be dis-proven in my beliefs if anyone had come up with anything (I am sorry, Dabir, but your links are laughable). I also have links-a-plenty, and I daresay I have spent considerably more time researching these subjects than the majority in this group (I am doubtless at least twice the age of most).

I am not technically insane (by any standard measure)(I know some people in the field), I do not personally associate with any conspiracy theorists (my family, friends and comrades are tolerant but undecided), I do not read any conspiracy forums (although on recommendation I have read David Icke, and yes, he knows what's going on). My conclusions are personally-derived (and also I'm not stupid and instantly recognized controlled demolition on 9/11... in fact I only began to truly consider the possibility of deployed mind control on human populations when I saw how universally so many people that I considered to be not stupid firmly believed what they were told!)(If you really want to know, look up Engineers For 9/11 Truth)(and to be clear, you don't have to be stupid to believe that Middle Eastern terrorists were behind the events of 9/11, just gullible, lazy, or mind-controlled).

However, I sympathize with the participants in this thread who have no interest in such debate, and though I fully accept responsibility I will happily abandon this course for the sake of less inflammatory content, saddened though I may be by the conventionality that has been exposed, reduced in the minds of my thread-mates by my unfortunate insanity. I will abandon the venue entirely if it has made people that uncomfortable.

Play on, gamers! Your mainstream news feed is all you need, the world is as you've been taught. You're just fine, everything's fine!
