    Cronkite? You have a famous uncle, Gramps?
    “I give you a new commandment, that you love one another. Just as I have loved you, you also should love one another. By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another.”
    - John 13:34-35 (NRSV)

    Apolyton is definitely on the decline when someone like Mr. Troll is promoted to an official function...






    Just kidding, congrats Grandpa

    Down in Dogpatch..er..Call To Power MP & Super League I have access but never had the need to play walking tall.

    I prefer to try to work issues out.

    Opportunities versus problems.

    You know..Lemons make lemonade sorta thing.

    But, if one day one is issued, I'd like it to be like Sherriff Buford T. Justice's

    (if ya saw Smokey and the bandit you would know Jackie Gleason's funny take on Walking Tall's sherriff)

    Thanks all

    Yeah but that's because there's only 2 and half people there. If you ban someone you lose like 40% of your playerbase.
