A corollary to "please talk about indie games you like on social media" is: "Virtually all games are indie games." D&D and Catan probably don't need your marketing boost, but you can assume almost everything in the games hobby does and, honestly, creating new D&D and Catan players doesn't hurt.

Stop doing this. Yes, you! I'm talking about! And you! I know school never taught you how to use the internet properly, and no one will, but if you're gonna hang out at this pub, you gotta learn the rules.
The equivalent of what you did is walking into a pub, seeing a bunch of folks talking about something, chirping in your opinion with no understanding of the conversation, and then getting mad at the folks for not including you into the conversation you just wandered into.
SoMo is a digital pub.

They built the ossuary where ley-storms gather, in a hollowed cleft between two black spurs of rock, lest the wind carry their voices to more pleasant lands. It looks like a church of broken teeth rising from the stone.
