i doubt that he'd go for a mailing list. that's very much a blindy thing to be

forums are the best way to go. much easier to control the flow of conversation

Hi Darren,
Agreed. I think it should be possible,in theory at least, for someone
to create a client for Steam that is accessible. People do
neither and besides we probably don't need the full feature set for steam.
since most steam is not worth it we probably don't need most of it.

Hi dark,
Yes, it would. I've only used Hotspot Clicker sparingly, but there are times
when that program comes in handy. Smugglers is a game where that tool is
really needed for seamless game play.

For those who don't know, hotspot clicker is
