Actually, Meitheisman, I didn't get excited, and I realize that it's just a general discussion forum for a game. But I made the point because it's amazing how easy it is for people to fall into that mindset, and then when crunch time comes, their attitudes are already formed. So, if someone sees my post, maybe they think a little differently about it.

Thanks for understanding.

I do understand. I'm just not sure it was necessary in here. I'm just assuming the original poster's IQ is above 80 so he knows what a ret@rd is and was just using this word as a shortcut which really isn't a big deal considering where he used the shortcut.

Thank you for understanding.

Sometimes with this game I feel that my IQ is below 80.

God that was a painful exchange to read, I thought this was about helping someone with the game and not a rubbish debate about political crankness.

I don't believe in political correctness, I think it's a load of sh*t. Discuss...no don't, it would be too painful.

there's a difference between 'political correctness' that you see and making sure everyone has the right to respect etc.

over to you..

Instead of comming on here and having to plough through lots of nonsense about political correctness would it not have been easier just to read the manual?

I realize you meant it as self-deprecation, but it actually is demeaning to people who really are retarded, and they have enough problems as it is. So, next time, if you'd find another way to express it, I'd appreciate it. Thanks.
Oh come on.

Patronising 'retarded' people is worse than someone taking the **** with no offence intended.
