Rah, ban Ming for this unprovoked attack on my American cousins.

[MalevolentLight]

First of all don't say dumb american because we are anything but dumb. We are the most powerful nation in the world and places like germany should grovel at our feet. The germans are just like the french, they've always been a problem. We should go conquer them today.

That was quite a poetic response...who is bringing the popcorn?

God, if you're going to spout this kind of crap, take it to the OT where it belongs. THIS IS A GAMING THREAD.

RAH

The scary thing is that eyes actually believes that crap.

You must be the exception to the rule then judging from your statements

[Ming]

I think Eyes missed the joke...

And yes, political crap belongs in the OTF

Hm perhaps i wrote to much. But ming, the point were i wanted to say i shamed to insulting eyes finally the same way he did to me for a long time.

U are right this forum is for the game not for personal things. (But why u deleted the whole message)

[Ming]

Because I don't like when people sign up for a forum with the sole intent of starting a flame war with a member.

If you want to join the community... fine...

But when you FIRST THREAD names another MEMBER BY NAME and starts the insults going... I have to question your intent.

Put yourself in my shoes...

I will not see these forums used for your personal and petty flame wars....

Is that clear

[MartinMS600]

Its clear but i were a bit pissed of today by useless insults.

OK, i wanted only reply, the new thread were a bad click.
I lost a ladder game today in 3750 bc. In my opinion its really useless to report such games. I didn´t do it if i won so easily and i know sk did it never to me.
But i discussed not and confirmed - its ladder!
I learned many things in the games with strategicking (especially logistics and transportation) and robbie is very expierienced in locating enemy cities.

[Ming]

Frankly... I don't care what happens in your ladder games... if you guys insult each other all the time when you play your games, that's your ladders problem, not Apolytons. I just don't want it to carry over to these forums.

This community has a long tradition, going all the way back to the day the game was released.

I have no intention of watching people sign up just to carry on their personal vendetas from elsewhere.

We always welcome new people... people that want to join our little community... so again, if you want to become a member here... GREAT... we need new blood all the time.

But my warning still stands

Robbie, can you really be this stupid?? When I start on a 1 square pennisula 6 squares long full of hills and forests, you lose, I lose, Eyes loses everyone is doomed from the very beging. It is irreversable no matter what you do. Three games over in 15 mins. need I post the saves of the rediculas starting positions given me by the computer? And by the by, in 15 games if you have not recieved a start like this, then you are probably hosting and using premade maps to avoid it with out sharing that information with the other player obviously.
However, I "won" 2 games like this, including a game verse Atawa. I dont report this because it is not a win. If I were concerned about "winning" , I would not care how it happened, just accept it and move on. Call me old fashion, but I believe in EARNING what I get.
I check the demographics early in the game and try to get the other player to restart if they are too far behind early in the game. I dont get the same consideration.
For example, in game league a few years ago, I played a 1 vs 2 battle with Kaak. (he was #1) I took his capital by 3600 bc via a chariot turn 1 and running it down a river system and then too another and just stumbled into his capital. This would have propelled me to #1. I did not report. I am sure he would not have reported if the shoe was on the other foot.
Does anybody get this?

[Ming]

Robbie won't be able to respond for a while...

He's restricted for the week. And his restriction will last even longer if he doesn't agree to follow the rules of this site in the future.

[StrategicKingMi]

1 more thing. I have 4 unfinished games. 1 of which is with Martin and , win or lose, I could care less about reporting it. The other 3 have exactly 0 chance of being finished. In each game I have a gigantic lead, 2 I have a 2-1 city lead and the other I have enormous and unmatched capabilities. All three of these players have been on line and have avoided thier fate on several occasions. I refuse to chase down players for a game. I will offer once, but when rejected expect the other player to follow up on it. (They would if they were ahead)
I could play a tiny, 3 billion board , all land with many huts and play 30 mins till its completion and do the same thing every game and ignore things like trade, advanced tech, wonder building, sea warfare and government changing but isnt this what civ is really about?

Don't ever ask me for a game strategikfool.
