    It had nothing to do with your post.
    A simple rule of thumb when it comes to MarkG...

      I remember that thread too!
      I'm glad you stuck around after that though.

      I think they mucked with the flag icons to do it. Still not exactly sure...


      The exploit is still there to be used.

      I was mainly doing it to:
      a) Show that some of the flag options in the code were incorrect, and to
      b) Point out that the control panel setup allowed this type of exploitation.

      I thought a gentle, humorous use of the exploit might have shown Mark there was a danger, possibly before someone sadistic caught onto it and used it to actually do some damage.

      It obviously failed, as the code is the same as it was those many weeks ago. And 5 of the flags still don't work.

        No PCR (Post Count Reduction Kman), and no bans......yet.
        Don't try to confuse the issue with half-truths and gorilla dust!

          Just because you can, doesn't mean you should

          MarkG will get around to it soon enough... he does have a life, and other more important things to do on the site.

                I'm happy enough to be the sole representative of Heard and McDonald Islands until then.

                  Is it that people have trouble remembering your name, Jon? Or do you just like the name a whole lot?

                  (Haven't been here in awhile... just noticing the profusion of Jon Miller's everywhere in your post)

                  Yesss... I seem to remember you spamming there awhile, Skanky. And I think Provost was there at the beginning. He told me to come to the OT, said I'd be hated for being a DL at first, but that soon people would grow to accept me and that they really were a nice bunch...

                      I was banned by Mleonard (yes, he banned people) for a little April's Fool joke where I posed as lmran Siddiqui. I thoroughly defamed him

                        Posting that sort of info will definately result in me being banned. Consider that my answer.

Wasn't a mad thread, just a thread by some newbie on the Civ 3 General forum. Some princes looking for custom avatars got into it, and slowly it turned into a spamfest. I joined in.

                          My banning words were, "I am the SPAMINATOR!"

                          100% PCR, one week banning. And oddly, I cared more about the PCR than the banning then, thankfully I've changed.

                          I remember that. That was the closest to any punishment I've ever had. After spamming the thread, MtG said he was considering a PCR for me, but nothing ever came of it. Other than that, I've never come close to getting banned/PCR'd.
