Does anyone know how to get past the password on an MP save?

Wow that sounds harsh.

3 GOTM rules?

5. Members can cuss and discuss anything; if enough want a change of Status for a technique, then members should directly address the Admin (Duke of Marlbrough) via posts or PMs... The Admin will proceed as he desires, e.g., open a specific thread, do a poll, consider various input, etc. and ultimately decide the timing and scope of the change. Hypothetical example: "Pet Cities are no longer allowed beginning in GOTM 020"; then the item #17 status would be changed to "disallowed" and made boldface.

6. The Admin (DoM) does have the final say on what is allowed and disallowed (not me, Starlifter), and the list will be changed to reflect any new Admin decisions in the future to keep the Status current.

7. The Admin can feel free to directly edit this list (use Mod editing); just add a revision number at the top of this post & update the Revision History (below), plus make a post in the thread so this thread resurrects & everyone knows.

More examples of why I avoid that place.

That thread was pretty funny. The later post about them taking pride in monitoring is freaking hilarious.

[atawa]

Yeah, some people take this game and themselves way to serious

[DrSpike]

Its the same in many settings.........give (otherwise reasonable) people some power, even in the simple setting of a gaming forum, and it goes to their heads and they act like jerks. Apolyton is great because the owners aren't megalomaniacs. Other gaming sites I've posted at are not always similarly blessed.

[rah]

Hmmm, not sure if I was just insulted.

[DrSpike]

Ok change it to owners and mods, so that noone feels insulted.

Anyone that frequents gaming forums knows how good Apolyton is, apart from the actual bouts of server trouble these days.

[rah]

Yeah, I knew that, but it was a bit loosely written.

[DrSpike]

Hehe, maybe you feel guilty? Have you perhaps been abusing your authority in the RoN forums?

[rah]

No need to, no one ever posts there.

[DrSpike]

I thought the RoN influx was getting the blame for some of the server load problems.

[atawa]

I think rah was talking about the people from this forum.

What is strange on that? Probably I am strange too...
