Thanks, Jochi, for your words of support, I'm glad there are people around me that feel the same.

Even the best games one plays online can be spoiled by idiots, and since I didn’t like Rome as nearly as much as I liked Medieval (odd that I am here at all, isn’t it?), a fact that I have never kept secret, and that I have had poor connections (ISDN) to play bugged game with massive lag (my computer, on the other hand, is state of the art, if I may say it so bluntly) have only additionally made this game more repulsive for me. None of the veterans I knew from before, like ElmarkOFear-sama for instance, have bothered themselves with this game. People I got to play this game with were brats, nothing more; I thank them for a game, and got frequently nothing by silence, occasional “off” if they lost or they would simply drop out of game, or a “lol, yeah”, smuggish reply if they won by spamming me massively with cav and similar.

This is my last attempt to get back in saddle with Rome. If CoH doesn’t pull it off, nothing will. Unforunately, I had found no time to play recently, I hope that I will manage to pull some few hours of my schedule this weekend.

To be honest, I’m somewhat afraid of it…
