Yes.
PbP'd in a thread in CotI, a Star Wars game in a tiny, obscure offshoot of a group that hung around the Atari forum for Master of Orion III,and DM'd an AD&D campaign in the aforementioned tiny, obscure forum.
It's just not the same as gathering around a table and demolishing chip, pretzels, soda, a DM's dreams... Mwuhahaha!

Tim: Yeah, I picked up on the sarcasm. =) I get how there can be haters for ex-presidents and politicians many years after they've exited the stage as their actions affect millions/billions of lives. Even though most people let it go, there will always be that fraction of people that can't move on. But Traveller is just a game, and TNE was but one edition of that game. To be pre-occupied with hating it after 20+ years is just pathetic.
Brett: I'm guessing that the "grittingness" of TNE chafed a lot of Traveller players. It didn't bother me, and I've been playing since 1982. Well, there was the whole temper tantrum of GMs having their little kingdoms steamrolled, too. But I won't go any further into that.
Roger: I've heard your issues with T5 voiced by many others. Please keep us apprised of developments with your SFRPG.
Christopher: Have you tried Play by Post (PbP) or Play by email (PBEM)? PBEM is the only way I've been able to play for the last 13+ years.
