    I've never felt that I was singled out by a mod. I've felt that a little politeness in the PMs I've received would help.

    But the mod wasn't wrong.

    ACK!
    Don't try to confuse the issue with half-truths and gorilla dust!

      yin is an old user that was very active and did some good work some time ago. He became mod, but lost his mind under an argument with Markos and posted a PM. After he was relieved of his mod responsibilities he left and has after that only been seen a few times here. A pity, because I liked to have him here... BTW, I think he left some time after Civ3 was published. It was before your time...

              Yin26 is still around here, but maybe not that visible. At least when it comes to MoO3/RoN/OT forums.

                Yin posted when Civ3 came out, and more recently in the Galciv forums. He still lurks I think.

                  Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent. Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent. Is he both able and willing? Then whence cometh evil? Is he neither able nor willing?

                    oohh, yin and libertarian, those were the days. what do we have now? tass and... well, never mind.

                    I feverishly try not to spam everyday. I could say that I'm being successful most of the time.
                    I watched you fall. I think I pushed.

                      Just give up. It's obvious that you and Ming have differing views on what is humanly possible regarding bias towards friends. And no amount of arguing on your point is going to change Ming's mind.

                      I agree with you, but that's because I feel my friends deserve to get special treatment from me.

                        My friends do get special treatment... My PM warnings are more polite. But the content remains the same, just the tone varies. The rules are the rules... that doesn't change for anybody but owners

                          Yeah but the rules are free for interpretation. I'm on Tass' side. You can't prevent being a tiny biased.

                              Oh, come on, that was anything but spam. Find a better example.
