Re: [TCLUG:19917] Dont think of me less for playing games

Andrew,

Then you should definitely include _something_, _anything_, in the
subject line saying this is offtopic:

[OT] Dont think of me less for playing games
(Off-Topic) Dont think of me less for playing games

and make sure that people know that windows is a requirement and what
equipment is available. 

To be fair, it may be something others here are interested in, but this
is definitely not the place this type of question really belongs. Some
kind of signal or hint that this isn't Linux related (at all) would be
very much appreciated.

Thank you,

Troy

I love to go shopping. I love to freak out salespeople. They ask me if
they can help me, and I say, "Have you got anything I'd like?" Then they
ask me what size I need, and I say, "Extra medium."
