That one? No, I haven't had a chance to finish reading that thread. If you thought it was out of hand, you could have messaged me about it.

What full blown argument did I miss? If you thought it was out of hand, you would have been best served by messaging myself or another mod so we can step in. As has been said repeatedly, we do not read every thread consistently. Yeah, it sucks. Yes, we need more mods. Feel free to volunteer.

As for the deletions, it was quite explicitly said what would happen, and you guys chose to ignore it. Don't blame me for following through on what I said I would do.

Finally, if you have issues with me, feel free to message martian and/or qzjul, and they will take a look at your complaints.

You don't fool anyone, you libs were and still are the most racist intolerant assholes ever to walk on our soil, but I tip my hat for your dedication to brainwash the weak to believe your lies and deception, it's very entertaining!

Thanks Trife!!!

So basically you're saying that you're unaware of the political paradigm shift that occured between the parties over the past 150 years? You might want to read a history book before spouting off the republican party doctrine.

You hear what that means a lot, but you just tune it out, most likely.

Personally, I think there should be standardization across the country. I'd like to see universal background checks and waiting periods, even at gun shows. I'd like a basic safety course like you have to do with hunting. I'd like to see punishments for losing track of your gun and not reporting it stolen. I want ALL gun owners to be responsible owners.

I don't think these things are so ridiculous. If you really are serious about wanting a gun, jumping through these minimum hoops shouldn't be an issue. It's harder to buy a car than a gun in many places, and I think that's crazy.

neither would be easy. the proliferation of guns in the US and the culture surrounding them and the perceived freedom make it all but impossible to get them. i wouldnt be too keen if someone wanted to take mine.

changing a culture isnt something that can really be directed. ending poverty could solve a lot of violent crime, but a lot of the mass shootings that grab headlines are not spurred from poverty. not like ending poverty is a simple thing to do anyways. changing cultural priorities and whagt is glorified would be a good start, but that is something a people has to do, government cant force that.

oddly enough, most people dont really care about the thousands murdered daily for drugs or money or pride, they just see the mass shootings every few months. crime is going to be crime. guns might make it easier, but they arnt the cause.

I agree with you for the most part, honestly. But you said it yourself; Guns make it easier, so at the very least, if we have better controls on guns, then it makes many types of crimes harder. Is that not a worthy thing to work towards?

I think both sides are wrong. Guns are not the only issue, of course. But they absolutely do intensify the problem. There are far too many guns, and equally as many people who are willing to use them, both of which are the problem, imo.

Guns are part of that culture, though. The way we think about guns is markedly different from how other countries think of them..

You don't need provocation to kill someone. You DO need it to justify entering an existing war. And to make it clear again, ingame actions determine if a tag is still at war, not posting here. MiM just killed a book country today. They're still at war in my *puts on sunglasses* book.

Low key white power statements.

I think the reason white people were their in the first place was supposed to be to help modernize those countries. It's called the human race, and for as long as we have others who are lagging and falling behind in the race. Than it slows down the rest of us, every nation needs to be on par, the ones who are ahead have an obligation to get everyone else on the same page. It's sad that you have idiots who pervert this and call it power.

Hooooooooollllyyyy fluff, we have a winner here. This is the most ridiculous thing I've ever seen on these boards....

That was at the beginning of a thread that I have just now finished reading and hadn't read before now. I posted that response when I saw your post, then continued to read the thread. I wish I hadn't, though, as it's devolved into middle school name calling back and forth for 2 pages...ugh...

so nuk, i hope you are reporting this guy big time since you misreported me (which is btw, why i wasn't deleted ... didn't remotely break any rule)

By that same token, though, you misreported several people as well :/

We have only deleted for 'DR abuse' if people coordinated to put themselves into DR. If someone is trying to mess you up, and you survive and use that massive DR to gain land from others, that is not a violation of the rules as they currently stand. Never has been.

Yes, many people think that's bullfluff. Yes, as a player I agree with you that it shouldn't be that way. I think qz should make a change to put special attacks and LG dr on separate counters, personally, which would remove this entire issue. Unfortunately, that never happened. Sorry.

Oh yeah, and if you want faster mod response, it helps to send us messages. That's what usually gets my attention. Posting on the forums alone will almost never get someone to look, but a forum message might. Cover all your bases, more or less.

If you or anyone else would like to step up and become a mod, please send a message to martian and/or qzjul(but green man first). We are honestly always looking for reliable and trusted people to mod the game and/or the boards, and we're pretty much always short handed.

Keep in mind that to mod a server, you would no longer be allowed to play on said server.

That's probably why. I rarely see the mods take action unless a person reports it. My suggestion would be to avoid all personal attacks all together. Just keep it to game trash talk. (And when I say game trash talk, it must remain within the context of the game only).

And yeah, that's more or less where I draw my line. Trash talking within the bounds of the game is fine. I tend to take a more active stance when it's just insults back and forth and flame wars, but that's just me.

As for why I looked into this particular situation, it's because I had some messages, which caused me to login to the mod tools, and I saw about 4-5 people all accusing each other of abuse, so I looked into the situation. You made a borderline inappropriate comment, so I sent you a polite message asking you to tone it down. You're not deleted, I didn't target or harass you. I don't know why you're getting so worked up over this, honestly.

As an added clarification: SHARING SPY OPS 'WILL' GET YOU DELETED!

I realize there has been some gray areas in there before, but now it's clear for everyone to see.

If you send a message such as 'Hey, hit this guy #xxx because his break is only 5m', that will not violate these rules and you will be fine. After all, you can lie about that kind of stuff."

I even put it in caps for you, Vic.
