  • Does anyone take Apolyton seriusly any more?

    Honestly? Actually has anyone taken it seriously to start with?



    I think we need stronger moderation, or at least someone should ban me since I'm getting pretty annoying, if the forum is to survive. Never mind the moderation on second thought... the site desperately needs content and many of the topic forums are ghost towns.

    You think that you are annoying when we have BK, KH, MOBIUS etc. around
    With or without religion, you would have good people doing good things and evil people doing evil things. But for good people to do evil things, that takes religion.

      I was moderately serious about the Civ III List.

      I was slightly serious about the MOO3 forum before the art department fired the programming department.

        Are you saying that C3 was playable ?

        C3C was but not C3

          What a stupid thread. Apolyton doesn't need stronger moderation. Content possibly, I don't care anymore as it's been years since I played Civ.

          If people find the forum annoying they can stop posting or use the ignore function.

            I still keep an eye out for new scenarios in the Civ2 forum but otherwise I don't care much for this place anymore, especially now that so many people are gone.

              I still occasionally post in the SMAC or Civ4 MP (I played in the diplo games) section. And every now and then there is an OP thread I take seriusly.



              Maybe things will turn for the better once Civ5 comes out? If it does... dunno. I'd probably miss poly if it went under, even if its a shell of its former self.

                I enjoyed playing civ3 but I can't deny It was a big disappointment after SMAC. I really got back into poly right after Civ4 came out.

                  I'm not saying anything happened that requires moderation. I just have this bad feeling that mods simply don't care any more. The every watchful eye of JM or whoever the mod is seems too forgiving. I have a feeling that nothing short of porn will cause moderation.

                  After years of Mingapulco, liberty seems a bit scary and too close to anarchy.

                    I only check this place now and then for nostalga, post a few ****ty rap videos, sometimes get into a good chat war, but otherwise ForumWarz is my new OTI (On The Internet) stomping grounds.

                      Uh huh. You and ForumWarz are like a couple desperately in need of a divorce, but find yourselves dependent on each other.

                          I think Poly is just in that down part of the cycle between major civ releases.

                            Hera, its not what you write or how you say it, its whether you are cool or not. You tell me if serious people should take it seriously.
