The opinions expressed in this journal are not necessarily those of the author. Sometimes he himself doesn't know. Debate and discussion are good things.

About my username: "Navrins" was the name of a character I played in a game that ran for about three years. I chose the name on the theory that most people who know me well would recognize it and associate it with me, while people who don't know me well would not - making it exactly as anonymous as I want it.

Navrins's primary weapon was a very magical, semi-sentient shortsword named Marriash. It probably didn't look much like my new default image, but that's why I have a shortsword image now.

I've only marked memories during some very brief periods. They are not a representative sample of the posts I think are interesting. Similarly, I've tagged some posts, but not a representative sample.

I am in the process of entering a profession which requires me to be careful about how much personal information is available about me on the Internet. I honestly do not know, right now, how careful I need to be, or in what ways, or what specific bad things may happen if I am insufficiently careful. I don't know what piece of information you or I or someone else might carelessly reveal, that could lead a sociopath or a lawyer to show up at my door or yours with a shotgun or a lawsuit. But until I do know that, I'm going to err on the side of caution. It is for this reason that my real first name is no longer in my profile, and many posts that were previously public no longer are. Please bear this in mind when considering how to refer to me in your posts, or how to respond to inquiries that could lead you to link, explicitly or implicitly, this journal to my real identity.
