What??? Wirestripper, that was you???? Nooo!
It's ok I forgive you.
I fought tooth and nail to keep our DnD and other RPGs going. We used to hide in CF, up on top of the giant rolling file cabinets, playing Shadowrun. Or we'd have secret meetings in our berthing, or find unused closets, or go up on the roof.
But eventually Security came and confiscated all our stuff -- I'm talking $300 (probably more) worth of AD&D manuals, figures, Warhammer sets, etc. They claimed they would "hold it for me" and that some day I could come get it back. Yeah right! I told them they had stolen from me, and had better at least give the books to my non-SO parents, but they wouldn't. They wouldn't give them back when I left the SO, either.
I demanded to see the reference, and was given the run around. No one could find it. They said it restimulated us. But still nothing it writing. They claimed they would give the stuff back if they couldn't find the ref, but of course that never happened.
They also confiscated my computer and all my disks. Eventually they gave me back the computer because they had "checked and cleansed it". They "lost" all my video game floppies. Including one of my novels and several short stories that I had no other copies of, gone forever. (Granted they were crap, but still!)
Man I still haven't forgiven them for that. I'm saying "them" but I know who it was, I just don't want to name names.
Somebody has to speak for these people.... no more running. I aim to misbehave.... If you can't do something smart, do something right. (Serenity)
