I seem to have missed that drama but I ran a search and had a good read. I can't claim to be an angel (I started Civ2 as a bratty middleschooler after all, and old readme's show it! ). Perhaps he too will eventually grow out of it. I suppose we are all a little off in the head to still be playing this game all these years later.
I do hope you can get the link working as it is an interesting time period and idea for a new scenario.
When I was in junior high (what we call middle school here), the Internet was all text, needed an external modem, blocked up your phone line, made that horrible fax noise while connecting, took forever to find another Internet terminal (and you had to know the actual IP number - no surfing, web searches, or catchy web addresses), and the phone company charged you an arm and a leg to use it. Oh, how good you kids had it. I didn't first log into Apolyton (when the SL was still there) until I was in my '20's.
