I guess the developers have done a study on how to interact with users and suppose also that a better treatment results in more and more donations .. but reading some GMs sometimes I doubt it.

I've always been of the impression that sarcasm doesn't show very well on the internet and that the writer must take extra care, given the circumstances, to make the reader fully aware that his post was facetious. At the very least liberal use of italics helps.

P.S. I am not a robot no matter how hard I may wish I were.

Nonsense! We all know anyone that plays a bard without /melody is a robot~

/sarcasm

P.S.
This post was facetious

sarcasm is best communicated on the internet using the "~" symbol. as in, "this thread was made by a smart guy~" the wave of the tilde symbolizes the wave of a sarcastic tone.

It was pretty obvious.

honestly - i am still confused as to what you meant. So I have to agree with McBard here.

Please try making your jokes more understandable in the future...or at least funny....

maybe that was the problem....it wasn't funny?
