  • Vox Controli Misc. Thread

    I thought we could use thread to post or discuss items regarding team admin, or whatever, and that do not have anything to do with moves and strategy (moves thread) or foreign affairs (FA thread).

    Actually - I started it because I didn't know where to post this question:

    What do my post stats mean?

    A:13 D: 99 M:99 HP:58

    I'm pretty sure that it is not Attack, Defence, Movement, and Hit Points .....

    Actually it is.

    It's post count, posts per day, how long you're registered Apolyton and other stuff converted to Civ like form. I dont know exactly how, but I think it's somewhere in the FAQ.

      yeah it's attack defesne value, movement and hit points

      based on how long you have been registered, # of total posts, and posts per day or something like that.

        That's a hoot. I checked through the FAQ's, couldn't find it anywhere. Thanks.

          OK folks - I need some help. I've got 156 posts to go to 500 and then I can lose the spearman guy avatar. I've got something picked out - but hey - ask Eli - this is going to be a challenge with me. I've got the cartoon saved as GIF image that I grabbed from a cartoon site. But now what do I do with it?

          Help. Please. I could ask GhengisFarb or Aro who seem to be experts at this, but thought I would start here.

          And now I'm down to 155 to go.

            You need it to fit the avatar size, what's the size of the cartoon?

            (or just mail it to me and i'll resize it)

              Ok, thanks Eli. That was my problem. I have the full size cartoon, but only want part of it. I will e-mail you both the full-size one, and the one with my attempt to cut out - yes - the dog. Hey c'mon - he has a helmet and a bow and arrow.

                Diss - in the other thread you posted this:

                "I have been a King for years . 2 major post count reductions will do that to ya."

                What is a post count reduction? Is it another form of punishment around here? If so, what did you do to warrant a post count reduction - and waht does it mean in forum terms?

                (I think we should rename this thread - something along the lines of : Questions by Beta. Or the Education of BetaHound - Dog School 101. )

                  OK - and beta's next question is - how do you pull up the links to other threads, and include them in a post?

                  Say - if I want to refer you to a thread in the civ3-Strategy forum.

                      as for post count reductions. I got one by admitting to a whole bunch of DL's. . I had around 10 of them at one time. This way over a year ago. About the time we used the new forum style.

                      Another one I got for spam and troll threads in the civ3 general forum

                      Yes I deserved them both. Just don't spam and cause trouble and you will be OK.

                      *checks post count*. I thought I might get another one. I posted two threads on a similar subject last night. One in Apolyton/community and the other in off-topic. The one in Apolyton/community was closed/locked. I haven't checked off-topic yet.

                          Next question - my 'my threads' page is only showing 11 threads. I'm sure it use to show more. The other forums, such as Vox or the PTW-demo forums, are showing the full 30. And if I go to page two of my threads I also get a much larger list. I modified the last date and took it way back - makes no difference. Any ideas how I get more threads showing?
