        If Apolyton were a house; Asher would be the fireplace. How would we keep warm during those cold winter nights?

          What I did, I did in protest against the admins (in reality two of them). The details do not need to be known, but the staff know exactly the situation leading up to what happened. Let's just say my conclusion to a staff argument that has been raging off and on for over a year.

          So I apologise to the posters of Poly, the staff members and the couple of staff members who understood what I was trying to point out. To the staff members who read my thread a month ago in the staff room about a certain post, I hope you now understand my point.

          And to Asher and the couple of admins who opposed my argument...... meh.

          So if you want to follow my mod for Col, come to CFC. Otherwise..... meh.
          As I've told you before, your work with the mod is overrated. About 80% of the people on this website could do exactly what you did if they had the similar amount of ample free time and obsession with getting validated by their peers, or cared about a deeply flawed game as much.

          Good riddance.

            Dale is a fragile little man. There is not much to it. There was nothing big to cause this, there was no excessive drama. I think it all started back to a thread where I *****ed about how awful a game Colonization was and Dale went to extraordinary lengths to open his ******* for Firaxis' pounding. I called him out on it and summarily schooled him (he refused to admit the game was flawed, even after his mod was useful primarily for fixing obvious flaws in the game). He's been bitter ever since.

            He's the kind of creep that shoots up a place of employment after they fire him. It doesn't take much to set them off. He's mentally unbalanced and extraordinarily creepy, and that's all there is to it. The fact that he made a mod some of you like doesn't factor into this at all. And if you followed him in the Other Games threads the past few months, you'd see why this isn't too shocking.

            He's been stalking me the past few weeks calling me a "beaver rooter" incessantly, for whatever reason as well. Just a creepy, creepy guy.

              Man, you got what you want, he left. Just let it go and don't bore us to death with what you think of him.

                Actually, wasn't it "moose rooter"?

                He also changed TCO's thread about the Australian basement rapist Fritz, trying to shift the blame to Austria.

                  Ah, yes. "moose rooter". Still doesn't make any sense.

                    Need to set the record straight for the people who seem to think there was a lot of hidden drama behind this. There's not.

                    If you're bored by the issue, my advice to you is to not read threads about it.

                      Apology enough for me.

                      We should let Dale stay here at poly.

                        If multiple whining threads are allowed, I think we need a poll.
                        I'll do it. The rest of you just relax.

                          Geez this Dale seems a total loser if this passes for an 'apology' thread...

                          BTW 'to root' is Aussie slang for 'to f*ck', so basically the dip**** was calling you a moose****er...
                          Is it me, or is MOBIUS a horrible person?

                            Apologizing to people he didn't wrong?

                            Deleting post was a protest? :lame:

                            I protest this thread, I'm taking a nap.

                            ACK!
                            Don't try to confuse the issue with half-truths and gorilla dust!

                              I think its important, that the administration of Apolyton, to show that they are fair and transparent post an official statement, and allow all the posters here to view the exchanges between them and Dale.

                              Please put Asher on your ignore list.
                              Please do not quote Asher.
                              He will go away if we ignore him.
