No, I did not just arrive at this conclusion.

Can someone explain to me why my inquiring about the forum's interest in a 1960's board game was locked viewtopic.php?f=111&t=20664, viewtopic.php?f=111&t=20649? It's a board game called Diplomacy. It's like (Want to be allies? Sometimes I like to pretend I am a princess riding a pony..) creating a thread for monopoly.

AND THEN

Commercial games like TF2 and Realm of the Mad God and who knows how many others are allowed to have threads. viewtopic.php?f=111&t=20633 and viewtopic.php?f=111&t=20260.

The mods around here are becoming very idiotic. I don't even care enough to rage anymore.


(Want to be allies? Sometimes I like to pretend I am a princess riding a pony..) you all.

*CENSORED* you all.


Haha, not sure if you saw the original posts but they were removed because we weren't sure if he was a bot or not, his posts did look extremely similar to that of a bot if you didn't notice aisters post "Bot?^"

From my understanding these threads haven't been completely been removed from the forum because we still aren't sure if it's a bot or not because it was kind of borderline and we don't wanna ban a player that made one trip to the forum. There is reasoning behind actions even if you don't see it first, no one just does something there is always a premeditated thought if it is done intentionally which in this case it was.

I feel I have addressed your highlighted issues so if you have anything you are also concerned about feel free to ask and we will answer as all rational human beings will under the circumstances.

Thank you Hal for your concern.

**EDIT**

I did forget to answer why the other threads were allowed, these threads weren't really advertising the game heavily. It wasn't a direct link or someone saying "GO PLAY THIS!!!"

I know this reasoning is pretty sketchy but this is what we call a Gray area, there are plenty of them and it just comes down to what the thread leads to and how we feel about that. If we wanted we could just remove all those threads but I'm sure that wouldn't make you very happy. (nor would it make me happy because I love discussing new video games here as I am sure a lot of forumers do.)

It's a board game. I'll advertise stuff like monopoly wherever I want. It was in no terms a gray area.

I am flash9k, give me my damn thread back.

If the posts weren't removed, I'd like you to look at the second reincarnation of the thread again.

I gave reasoning for the thread to be allowed inside the spoiler, using the exact argument that I made here.


It would've been a bot that was smarter than you, Jake.

I hope you know that multi accounting is a violation of the ToS (which you have already breached several times)

Why not just post it on this account and use your reasoning again? This can all be fixed with communication :D if you would like you can post it up again send me a link (I will probably see it even if you don't) and I will judge it and if I find something that gives me a bad feeling I will tell you what it is and how we can work it out.

Everything can be fixed with some rationality ;)

The ToS prevents against multiple accounts playing on one server. I think all of the good players on BD (yourself evidently exluded) make new accounts for serious eras so they can get the achievement tokens. See, a moderator not understanding the ToS is rather disconcerting.

Haha, I didn't save a copy, and I'm not going to typing that thing up again you asshat. I want my thread back because it was unjustly removed, and quite frankly, it was your idiotic moderating that ended up in the thread being removed, so it is now your damn task to get it back up.
