The release date for HS in Japan has been announced on the official
website - the 12th of September this year.

Anyone considering getting the Japanese version?  Or are we all
waiting for the English version?

I'm still undecided if I'll get this at all, though I might, and I don't
understand Japanese.  Guess I'll wait for the English version.

Surprises me you may not get it at all.  Why not?  Did you get FL when
they came out?

Nah.  Didn't see much point, as I already had Sapphire and RB.  I don't
replay games much, and I didn't want to spend money on one I already had.  I
usually only buy one game from each generation, since the other two versions
are essentially the same.  I also didn't think FL had enough new features to
warrant returning to Kanto.  I tend to lose interest after beating the Elite
Four anyway (or Red, in the case of Silver), especially since I don't really
know anyone else in my area that plays.  I don't know what it is about HS
that piques my interest, though, but it seems like there's more buzz about
this than FL.

On an off-topic note, I think Outlook Express only indents short messages
now.  Or maybe ones where responses aren't interspersed among the quoting.
All I know is that this is the second time I've been able to bottom-quote
recently, and both were to short messages like this one.

Fair enough, I suppose.  I found FL very exciting - ten years after
the release of the original games, it was great to see them with all-
new graphics.  Then again, I needed them for Sapphire's Pokédex[1]
anyway, and I had a few mates playing Pokémon.  FireRed was also the
first game my girlfriend played, and I still think it's the best
version to introduce new players to the game.

(My housemate is now starting with Sapphire, though, so we'll see
whether she considers it a good starting game.)

The islands could've been better, certainly.  Nostalgia was the main
attraction for me.

I think the Yellow-style Pokémon following and the Pocket Pikachu-
style pedometer mean there's a lot more wrapped up in this package.  I
wonder whether Kanto will include RSE or DPP Pokémon too - that'd be
excellent.

Weird.  I've never had a problem with it, regardless of the length of
the messages, and I've been replying to my own lengthy HS announcement
discussions.  Wonder if there's a setting you can change somewhere?

There's an option where I can choose not to include the original message
when replying, and a selection of characters to indent with, but not
anything more specific than that.  Maybe there's a glitch in mine that gets
confused when there's already indentation.

What's your browser?  I've had no problem with Internet Explorer or
Firefox.

Chet Weaver, Beleif You Can Change In - 29 Jun 2009 19:14 GMT
I'm using Outlook Express.  It's a separate program.  I was using Firefox
for a while, but it kept freezing on me so I switched to Safari.  I don't
believe I've noticed any concurrance between the change this problem,
though.  However, I do miss it remembering what page I was on when it
closed.

That is odd.  I never had trouble with Outlook Express.  Then again, I
can imagine it having loads of options for quoting.  Tried going
through all the settings?  I can't speak for OE, but MS Outlook has
been increasingly targetting the lazy over the years, encouraging all
manner of ugly habits, from top-posting to HTML.  I know it's for
private e-mail rather than Usenet, but I quite like plain text, thank
you very much.

I love Firefox to bits - its Find tool is nifty too, and that's what I
miss most when I'm forced to use different browsers.

I've checked everything that could remotely be affecting indenting, and
there is nothing else.  Oddly enough, it's working in this one, so I have to
wonder if it's affected by my newsserver.  Due to unspecified technical
reasons, news.motzarella.org (which I had been using until now) had to
become news.eternal-september.org.

I liked how it can remember what page(s) it was on when it closed.  I could
take a break from reading webcomic archives without having to bookmark
anything.  I wonder if having three tabs open constantly was an issue...

It's never been a problem for me.  Good point about webcomics - I
haven't read any in years, but Firefox would make it a lot easier.  I
used to have to constantly delete and re-add bookmarks.
