Did you read through this thread?
I mean the entire thread?
All the way to the part where it got locked off?
I am on page three (of nine) and this is already reminding me of a move from the television show InuYasha: "Backlash Wave."

One person's statement did ring true with me, about how commercial software providers lock off updates after a few years to ensure those self-same people who bought their product before will HAVE to upgrade to the "latest and greatest" editions of their software. One of the differences being, however, most commercial software is engineered to be backwards compatible. NWN 2 is not by any means compatible with the original NWN.

This looks like it is going to be ugly, ladies and gentlemen. Forget your popcorn, get on the raincoats. And yes, just in case you thought the blood and gore was going to stop on the thread previously shown, here is Another Locked Thread...
