Sorry to shackers who think I may be over reacting. I feel sorry for you. Even though we might have played the same games such as Fallout 3. Your experience pales in comparison to mine. Why? Go to www.fallout3nexus.com and you might understand why the modder community isn't something to snicker at.
Now ... bring on the gravy my beautiful modders! I love you :)
