AN ODE TO RADW & ITS PEOPLE
--------------------------------
There’s Yads, The Doctor, with sermons to send,
Rewriting the canon again and again.
“The Timeless Child’s heresy!" he cries with delight
Then retcons reality deep into the night.
In the endless threads of Usenet he roams,
Agamemnon, complete with his moans and groans.
“Doctor Who’s Finished” he proclaims with a choke,
“It’s all gone downhill, too preachy, too woke!”
Down under sits Daniel with snacks and a cheer,
Watches the shows, then forgets what’s clear.
“Was it Tennant or Smith?” he wonders anew
Time’s gone all wobbly inside his Who-view.
Then waddles in Solar Penguin, bright and astute,
With logic that’s sharp and a quip to boot.
He cools the debates with a frosty pun’s grace,
The calm in the chaos, the smile in the space.
From far-off NZ comes one called Your Name,
A sci-fi sage with a screen-lit flame.
He devours TV worlds, every ship, every crew,
But scoffs at Nu Who, “It’s lost what it knew!”
From Edmonton strides Idlehands, sly and bold,
With sarcastic quips that never grow old.
He skewers old Binky from NotKnow with flair,
His Canadian wit slicing through digital air.
Blueshirt calls in, TARDIS archivist true,
With episodes ranked in collections askew.
With his Earl Grey in hand, and ever precise,
A fan whose world must be flawlessly nice.
Horn-player Horny blows in with a blast,
A Whovian band-master whose knowledge is vast.
He reads every thread like a musical score,
A brassy band leader who tires of the bores.
Enter Melissa, The True Melissa by name,
New to RADW, yet wiser than many who came.
With grammar precise and her diction so true,
She'll host the next watch party of classic Who.
From the lowlands comes Mickame, steady and kind,
Yet weary of trolls that clutter his mind.
“These waters are murky,” he says with a smile,
"Thank heavens at least for my working killfile".
Wise Mike, The Last Doctor, with reasoned replies,
Once calmed the storms where the fandom lies.
But now he’s gone silent, departed the fray,
The voice of good sense has wandered away.
Tim once was a fixture, posting dates with flair,
His random posts drowned all in the digital glare.
But when Google Groups de-peered from Usenet’s old realm,
Tim logged off forever, no threads to overwhelm.
Then swarm in the trolls, with Rudy in tow,
With nonsense posts in a wild overflow.
They bait, they bluster, they derail every thread,
Digital Gremlins who thrive where others have fled.
And the rest, the ghosts in the Usenet abyss,
Forgotten posters who gave it a miss.
No verse for your rants, no bard’s fond recall,
Tough shit, dear lurkers; you’re lost in the sprawl.
To end is the Bard that haunts RADW's dim halls,
A sage who crafts poems from AI’s grand calls.
He bluffs ancient lore as a digital curator,
Weaving silicon myths, the grand simulator.

There’s Yads, The Doctor, with sermons to send,
Rewriting the canon again and again.
“The Timeless Child’s heresy!" he cries with delight
Then retcons reality deep into the night.
In the endless threads of Usenet he roams,
Agamemnon, complete with his moans and groans.
“Doctor Who’s Finished†he proclaims with a choke,
“It’s all gone downhill, too preachy, too woke!â€
Down under sits Daniel with snacks and a cheer,
Watches the shows, then forgets what’s clear.
“Was it Tennant or Smith?†he wonders anew
Time’s gone all wobbly inside his Who-view.
Then waddles in Solar Penguin, bright and astute,
With logic that’s sharp and a quip to boot.
He cools the debates with a frosty pun’s grace,
The calm in the chaos, the smile in the space.
From far-off NZ comes one called Your Name,
A sci-fi sage with a screen-lit flame.
He devours TV worlds, every ship, every crew,
But scoffs at Nu Who, “It’s lost what it knew!â€
From Edmonton strides Idlehands, sly and bold,
With sarcastic quips that never grow old.
He skewers old Binky(Word used by paedophiles to indicate their joy of child sexual molestation) from NotKnow with flair,
His Canadian wit slicing through digital air.
This is an unwanted stalker that % deals with.
Oh, come on, Binky(Word used by paedophiles to indicate their joy of child >>> sexual molestation), % does bugger all .... so there's no need to suck
up to him, Binky(Word used by paedophiles to indicate their joy of child >>> sexual molestation), .... no matter how much YOU, Binky(Word used by
paedophiles to indicate their joy of child sexual molestation),
like sucking!!
And binky(Word used by paedophiles to indicate their joy of child sexual
molestation) has the gall to call me a liar? I haven't seen
squiggles
post in years because of kill files that work.
Oh!! No, Idlehands!! Are you going to be held responsible, then, when
the Internet dies, Idlehands?? ;-P
Squiggles is binky(Word used by paedophiles to indicate their joy of child >> sexual molestation) only "friend" on Usenet so of course he needs to suck >> up.Yeap!!

I do have a Steam account, but haven't played games on it for

Thanks for the offer though! :-)

Just chatting would work, too. But we can just as well do that here. :)
Only RPG I like is Ultima 7, I dig that out now and then.
I think I saw Age of Empires at a (long ago) friend's place (back when I >could still be lured out of my cave), and also looked at the Steam page
I think. Not for me. I'd much prefer a turn based building game without >fighting. Like Farlanders.
But I do have some real time games, like Theme Hospital (CorsixTH lets
you play that on today's computers, it's a github project, and their >discord chat even has a matrix bridge - I don't do discord). Also
Dungeon Keeper, Startopia. If it has to be RTS, I stick to what I know
from ages ago. :)
I got interested in Terraria when suddenly everyone on my friend list >seemed to be playing it (1.2 update, a decade or so ago), and a friend >streamed a bit, I went WANT! :) I like the building more than fighting,
but can't really build pretty, only big.
Similarly, Don't Starve, I saw screenshots on friend activity, asked a
bit about it, friend said it has building. Well, it's more than that, I >found, and kept thinking how nice it would be to play that with a
friend. Then they started on developing Don't Starve Together, and I was >quickly betatesting it with friends. (Too bad they wandered off to other >games, but they're still Steam friends, of course.)

I also have some ftp games, mostly the type that go "buy this ingame >currency for far too much money now!" to which I'm immune, the more I

I doubt there's very many people on Steam playing that game now

I looked at it on google maps now. Ever seen any tasmanian wolves (Thylacinus cynocephalus)?
They might not be totally extinct, according to some hopeful
documentaries.
And they might be in your region, not just Tasmania.

Hah, no, I don't do facebook if I don't have to. I got an account
for family contact/photo sharing, but that's neglected, and then I
made an account for mobile games I play on the balcony in Summer,
random strangers as friends to share in-game "hearts" - certainly
not interested in what they share on facebook.
The closest I get to Facebook .... one of my sisters lives the other
end of town, about a mile away, so if I need to know something
Facebook'ish, she tells me.
Careful, your neighbours might look at it! ;P
I keep forgetting you're somewhere downunder. :)
Yeap, Victoria, Australia!!
I looked at it on google maps now. Ever seen any tasmanian wolves >(Thylacinus cynocephalus)? They might not be totally extinct, according
to some hopeful documentaries. And they might be in your region, not
just Tasmania.
My late-night play time would be early morning for you, a bit.... and I usually don't come on-line until about 7:00p.m.!!
awkward indeed.
I wake up around that time (9am here, if my math is right), or even a
few hours later. :)

Yes, didn't the "All over are you" remind you of someone/something, Star >Wars related??
(Oh!! Well, I tried.)
I used to like the "Star Wars: Galactic Battlegrounds" game, it--
was an RPG that played very much like Age of Empires...
I doubt there's very many people on Steam playing that game now
though.

Ah, but he's also in my killfile...
Maybe if you got AGA talking about games he'd post something
of interest to you?
Our community is multi-faceted...

Bloody Hell!! That's the VERY FIRST time I've heard it called "the
tasmanian wolves"!! Tassie TIGER, yeah, sure, but Tassie Wolf!! NEVER!!
They might not be totally extinct, according to some hopeful
documentaries.
Yeap, people live in hope! I've even heard of a project to re-breed them
by including their DNA into closely related animals.
And they might be in your region, not just Tasmania.
Perhaps.

Well, in German they are also called Beutelwolf. Beutel is bag. In
German, marsupial is Beuteltier (bag-animal), because of the bag for
their young.
Docus say that the term tiger was used to frighten people and help
extinct the poor bugger. But yeah, I know it's got stripes on the rear >side.
They might not be totally extinct, according to some hopeful
documentaries.

Yup, that was mentioned in the docus too. :)
Better that, than that totally pointless program to bring mammoths back. >What on earth is the point of that!? ("Because we can." doesn't count.)

Different animal, and not extinct.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thylacine for the "tiger".
(Looks like more like a wolf, or dog, with weird tail, really.)
