Actually no. I simply turned cookies to "prompt" instead of automatically accept - I allow cookies for sites I actually visit like Poly, and block all others. I have not had a junk mail in about 3 years using this method.

Isn't it too many prompts?

[Moonbars]

not really, only once the first time u visit a site you want to visit, and if you goto somewhere u dont trust, you just press block. doesnt bother u again.

Less bother than spam anyway.

As this is the official Diplomacy thread:

I will be happy to accept the Euphorican Surrender here.

(Assuming, of course, that they wish to spare themselves the pain of The Justice of The Horde !!)

I wonder what "surrender" entails, Ambassador?

[ormuzd]

this is the third surrender you are awaiting, aren't you?

Indeed our friend ormuzd is right......so far none out of two! Will they get on the scoreboard with "third time lucky"?

[Paddy]

hahaha probably not

when I proposed to Babylon (opps number 4...) that they surrender, all I got back was the question of when will the Horde surrender to them... quick witty retort from the old Cat Beta

as to the Bards, well we expect we willl need to make strings for our tennis raquets of their guts before we see any surrender. some feel they may abandon their cities, this would be a shame, as we would much prefer some good old fashion war upon their fur

[ormuzd]

tennis raquets of their guts

The Horde are developing culture

culture of their own, of curse

[Paddy]

indeed we are, tennis is a great game, good for lobbing "presents" into seiged cities

[Kloreep]

I'm afraid I can jump quite high and still hit a nice overhead, Paddy, so I hope you aren't planning on using that against Babylon.

Plato - Grand master of the Horde Council

Attention Great Horde

In this momentous time of era change, I hereby announce a move that has been long spoken of, and anticipated by many.

Today I bring forth our Soothsayer Plato.

Lord Plato, you Sir have served our Horde with great Honour and shown the Strength of character that makes the Horde truely alive. We the Great Council of the Horde thank you for your wonderful efforts.

The many duties that you preform have inspired people throughout this passing era. From leading the "Call of the Horde," instituting "Hordeland Communications," through to your works in negotiating treaties and dealing with diplomatic incidents.

We thank you for this.

Today the Great Council will be retiring your mantle of "Soothsayer of the Horde" with great honour. This mantle has been well served by you in many capacities. Yet we feel that this is no longer appropriate.

Lord Plato, we hereby install you into a newly founded office, that be "Grand Master of the Great Council."

This is a different role in many ways, yet still keeping the fundamental components that made your office of "Soothsayer" so successful.

In this role you are elevated to the Lord Protector of the Great Council.

Your "Red Guard" duties will continue, with a few changes. You now have General Staff status. In this capacity you will serve as 2ic of the "Grey Wolves Horde." Your Regiment has also undergone an appropriate name change, no longer to be known as "Colonel Plato's Soothsayer Savages (horsemen 5/5)," they will hence forth be known as "Grand Master Plato's Maulers (horsemen 5/5)." At this time your regiment will continue to operate as part of "the Black Watch Brigade."

The Great Council acknowledges the formation of a new department, "One Voice: The Brotherhood of Blood." May you have every success in this area.

Do not think the "Blood Cell" has allowed you to escape your responsibilities in that area. With this new office also comes the duty of "Chief Ambassador." You will be responsible for many diplomatic functions, including the appointment, training and overseeing of diplomatic staff in their various functions, whether they be as diplomatic couriers, ambassadors or public relations staff for the public threads.


Ladies and Gentlemen, Horde, be upstanding and give great applause for "Plato - Our Grand Master of the Horde Council."

[ormuzd]

I did not understand anything from the Khan's statements (as usual). When will you learn to talk so that common people could understand?

[Krill]

Jesus Christ that red hurts the eyes...

[Shogun Gunner]

So, was PLATO sacked? or better stated, "promoted laterally"???

Does the Horde have a government website that I can refer to -- in order to understand their overburdened bureaucracy via some organizational chart?
