    I will never understand why some people on Apolyton find you so clever. You're predictable, mundane, and a google-whore and the most observant of us all know this. Your battles of "wits" rely on obscurity and whenever you fail to find something sufficiently obscure, like this, you just act like a 5 year old. Congratulations, molly.

      DF: Spam! Spam! Spam!



      Okay, back to the topic.

      Spikey,

      if we would remove all those unused accounts, how could we match up with CFC after that? Think if they would then have more registered accounts than we have. Now that would be scary.

        I would hope that Markos doesn't actually worry about that.

          Of course not, FP. I supposed you noticed the pun.

            I didn't notice a pun either.

              They could have the quantity, we would have the quality.

              Hm... I guess not.
              I watched you fall. I think I pushed.

                CFC does seem to have the most scoops(sp?)

                They had a 1.14 PTW chat with Firaxis.. How come 'Poly didn't

                  Spelling is correct.

                  Yes I find that whenever I visit CFC I see a couple of interesting Civ3/PTW news headlines that Apolyton doesn't have.

                  A 1.14f chat would have been nice, but maybe Firaxis get trolled and flamed less on CFC than they do here?

                  There can be no argument that the modding community over there is larger and more prolific than here. Nobody can match the breadth of coverage that apolyton provides, though.

                    I think the general standard of posting over here is better, but then I could just be biased.

                      you seem to forget that we created the "tradition" of the patch chats

                        Of those 27k how many do you folks think are DLs or unused accounts? 25%? 50%?

                          FP,

                          indeed they have more mods there, but remember that Ming's efficiency rate is at least the same as a few CFC mods' together. The only time I've contacted a moderator was to ask if the original announcement thread on CFC about FreeAC (now Stella Polaris) could be pinned. It took much longer than here IMO, but nice that Lefty did it after all.

                            Ah, yes, that's a good idea to have a minimum post requirement for deletion. 100 posts or less after nine months w/no activity (can they tell when an account has been used for lurking only?), it gets put on "hiatus" or is deleted. There are, after a all, a number of folks who are quite prolific when posting, but then drop off for a while, only to come back later.

                              Probably yes. PM tracking will tell you when somebody was last on line and their profile will tell you when they last posted. I'm assuming that the admins can see the last time someone logged on without actually having to do it via PM tracking.

                                All we would have to do is register a few DL's... and if mark allowed hotmail people to register, we'd probably have a few more 1000


                                I always wondered if the anti-hotmail rule hurt apolyton more than it helped with anti-DL measures?
