but yeah, DosFreak (apparently) closed this because people badmouthed System Shock and/or SS2, so...

I think you should read more closely. As much as I can say about why DosFreak does things (not much) I doubt that it was closed because of the SystemShock bashing. Might have been the last straw though.

While I can't speak for Holly I think that franpa's "this thread title = severe anger" post really summed it up perfectly. Abyss, it seems, has deliberate bad taste when posting and often comes off like a smeeeeeg heeeead.

smeeeeeg heeeead? I'm sorry, smeeg, smeg, and smig are not English words, nor Spanish as far as I know, and my German is rusty.

I'm not being nitpicky, I've never read the words "smeg", "smig", "smeeg", or "smeeeg" before, although I've heard of Clarkkkkson.
