Wow. This is the worst necro I've seen, EVER. I've been on several forums, also. FIVE AND A HALF YEARS?!
And your post is so incredibly enlightening! "no." WOW. If you're going to bump a 5 and a half year thread, don't say something that can be implied by non-response.
Of course, most of this has already been said. So.... ya. I second LD's lifting (not descending, yet) of the ban stick.
And for what it's worth, I have never even heard of, much less played, Archmage.
