Note to Mods

[ElConejo]

My deepest apologies for coming to this forum to post and such, but I couldnt find a list of Moderators who work with specific forums or anything so I am just going to post here and hope that one (with the power) will see it.. again, my apologies.

But I have a few threads to report/ask about:

First is "Petition to destroy the Iranian nuclear facilities"

http://apolyton.net/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=156625

And I think that should be in OT or some other such place, or deleted which ever your choice.

The second is this some sort of Retina scan thing:

http://apolyton.net/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=156627

It appears to be spam to me.. but again I leave it in your hands.

Thank you very much for both even looking at this and for keeping the place tidy!

There's a button in the upper left corner, "report post." You can use that.

Killing OT spam

With all the threads discussing history and 'realism' issues rather than Civ4 I'm not surprised that one was missed. Maybe when it is moved/deleted the others can be too.

[Locutus]

Threads deleted. Thank you (and everyone else who reported the thread) for the heads-up.

This is indeed the fastest and least intrusive way to report threads like this.

We get hit by 1-2 bots a day in the Civ4 forums. I can't be online 24-7

[DrSpike]

I was making a similar point. Did you miss the 'not'?

[Locutus]

No. They weren't 'missed', I was just getting some sleep for a change The threads were posted shortly after I went to bed and were there for only 5-6 hours. It's not unusual for us to take that long until we get around to taking care of crap like that, we don't spend every minute of the day on these forums...

[DrSpike]

Again, I was saying that I was "not surprised" it was missed, so you have no need to post to justify missing it whilst quoting my post!

AH! I feel st00pid now... sorry that I didnt catch it that way, and thank you Locutus for cleaning that up, I know that I am only one out of a million who appreciate what mods do for a forum like this. Next time I will save you some time and effort by reporting it with that handy dandy button tho.

For those who read this thread and wonder which button is being talked about, look for this one:

Not everyone notices it.

[Nikolai]

On a similar note, if the mods get the time and such, perhaps some moving/splitting of OT history discussions in the civ forums to the new history forum(big thanks for that one btw!) could be a good thing? I presume it's no time for it, but if it is it would both help getting some speed on the new forum and clean up the on-topic forums too.

[DrSpike]

That sounds like a cracking idea.

[Unspeakable Horror]

There´s a history forum?
