Ok, maybe if you were running a real copy of Waffle and not the "modified" version you were given it would be more functional? >Since now HELLDIVER works properly, If your Waffle configuration was correct, Helldiver would be able to read the same static file your Waffle did.

You have a toy, and you don't give a damn whether your toy works properly with everyone else's systems as long as your postings get out. You couldn't care less that people you annoy in mail can't reply to your annoyance. I only hope that you tire of your toy soon and put it away so the rest of us don't have to put up with it.
