I am sure Indi is just doing what he thinks is best. Moderating can't make you too popular with some in the long run, but he does do his job.
And I agree with him being restricting posting priviliages for calling someone an uber noob, noob is a very offensive term that did become somewhat of a standard backhanded insult. I must admit I am not sorry that people have stopped using that term, and I'm sure that's down to the moderators efforts in that reguard so keep up the good work!
Tinkergirl was going on about the Wii controller a while ago, I have to admit I didn't pay much attention as I dislike game consoles and console games as a rule, but that Wii controller is definately something special. It's a bit like imaginative role play, I used to run all over the mountain having pretend sword fights with my three brothers. It's kind of like that with consoles, no longer are people just sitting on their bums hitting buttons, but playing a virtual game of tenis, virutal fishing, virtual golf and others. While it can never replace sports, it's a good compromise between console playing and real life games. I hope to see more games that rely on motion sensor technology rather than just hitting buttons on a keyboard. Gamepads always seemed something of a backwards setup compaired to the mouse and keyboard combo, but this Wii controller is definately real evolution in the industry!
