You must have won it in the random WL lottery. :haha:
Every day that you dont post, you are entered in the lottery for a random WL increase, and you won it. ;) :p

It was a dark and stormy night (14 years ago) and the rain fell in torrents, except at occasional intervals - checked by violent gusts of wind -- sweeping through the streets and rattling through the rooftops......

oh, i tihnk i know why. i made a thread called "lazy people that play moo3". the admin obviosly didnt like that thread, so he closed it (i noticed it was closed) and he increased my warning level. :down:
i've posted at other message boards, and i've NEVER seen an admin warn some one for stating their opinion. well, i guess they do here.
i've decided not to come back here. i came here looking for help with master of orion 3, but now i find that this place has a g/ay a/ss admin that warns people for simply stating their opinion. if i need help with this game in the future, i'll find another message board.
good bye all.

well, I dont think you should get WL for that thread, though I disagree with your opinion, thats ok.
I spent a lot of effort on Moo3, went through the learning curve, loved it at first, and then started to not like it later, once I became good enough to discover all the bugs and flaws.
I disliked it after coming to the top of the learning curve....

Yeah our mod has a saying: "It's not what you say, it's how you say it..." You gotta agree that your post there was pretty inflammatory (as in, you could have eased up on your language...). :cool:

ARRR!! The EVIL alexfrog shows his true face! BURN HIM I SAY!! :p
Have you even tried it with the code patch yet?:weird:

No, havent tried the patch yet.
Does it vastly improve the economic system, to the point that it isnt a step backwards from moo1 or moo2? (which are each better than it in different ways, IMO)
Allen: while I dont feel your original post you got warned for deserved a WL, I guess you can now consider yourself worth of those 4 points due to the moderator feelings poll......in which Sencho spared you any further WL. So, in my eyes, your WL is now justified. Flaming the mods by creating a poll saying they are on a powertrip is asking for some WL.
@allen...
So let me see if I understand, you think the best way to ask how/why you got WL points is to flame/insult the mods, tell the forum that it stinks, and not give Sencho a little time to explain?:rolleyes: Even if you shouldn't have got those wit levels, your inability to cope with the situation is far more offensive and annoying than your violation.

I actually think that is the reason. Or he caught a mod on a bad day. I read through the first 3 pages of that thread and can't believe that it was cause for warning points. So his first post was rather brash but he showed a willingness to abide by the rules and he showed a genuine interest in learning about the game. I know! Let's chase these types of people from the forums.... :rolleyes: :down:
And the one or two people that I saw saying they were offended, were in fact, saying that in a joking/sarcastic manner.

Bye. Don't let the door hit your arse on the way out. Try OrionSector, or Apolyton's forums. They've got lots of people who hate this forum.
