@IGB:
1. copyright is necessary for artists to be able to feed their families, or at least it seems the most effective way we know of to make that possible. Though I'll say that the current laws go too far in some respects.
2. you don't think your harsh attacks on the GB -- without which your IGB would not exist -- are rude?! I find your posts about it quite abrasive. I don't approve of them. I'm not going to be rude back to you (two wrongs != a right), but I'm not going to condone your behavior either. Yes, the author has decided to make it "free" now (as in "freedom"), but it still seems a _moral_ error to try and claim it as your own even if there's no _copyright_ issue. And your treatment of him is quite disrespectful. I don't like that. He worked hard on that GB, and I value his GB very much.

I really can't tell if you're joking or not, but you do realize you have posted tons of spoilers yourself, right?

ADOM Guides - whatever you wanted to know about playing a certain class, but have been afraid to ask!
Check out my youtube channel to see my ADOM videos, including a completed playthrough of the game. I try to give instructions, so if you want to see some place you haven't been before and get some hints on how to deal with it, this might help! There's also some other games featured there that you might find interesting.
"Old crappy" refers to the old GB, which very user unfriendly, clumsy to use, and stays so. That was the main reason I offered HTML advantages almost 10 years ago. That does not mean any disrespect for the original creator or the content. I hope that answers both Darren and mike3.
And BTW, please don't feed the trolls, _Ln_ and Stingray1.
For the IGB, I'm going to mention in the introduction and on the access webpage, that it is indeed not original work, but remove all copyright notices throughout. Hope that is fine for everyone.
You should perhaps remove the notation on the contents page of areas changed from the original guidebook - it seems irrelevant now.
