Ace. That made me beam a big smile. Partly because, as before, I read the lurker thread first and so didn't quite get the comment (novice first, darrell second).

This was right before Cybershy took over...there were a lot of trolls hanging around and a moderator was pushed over the edge and started suspending posting privileges, removing posts, and banning people from certain forums.
I can never remember names  .

Okay, somebody fess up, who pooped in Sullla's corn flakes this morning? Or has this game really turned him into that much of a grouch?
I really like how he yells about spamming up the turn tracking thread... WHEN IT WASN'T THAT UNTIL HE JUST RENAMED IT!

I laughed too, but apparently the real rule is that it's only not spam if *Sullla* says it's funny.

Oh my, what have I started? Light the blue touchpaper...
Anyways, who has an email alert every time. That's just silly.
What's wrong with aimlessly checking the thread every hour?

You got your wish! Only noticed that on a second glance. Mine seem to have survived, though... for now. I guess he'd have to do the same to Speaker's otherwise - plus I hadn't been warned.

How does it feel?
One can of spam to whoever posts in the tech thread suggesting "No Spam" should be in the thread title.
Three cans to whoever reports Sullla's latest post in the tech thread.
I have to run.

I don't find this situation that funny or intersting but your reaction is! I really did laugh out loud!
Sullla's captial looks rather strong. Also in always war the other teams can not attack at the same time. It is like spilting the stack so it will be hard to do real damage to team spulla. I am 80% sure spulla will win but it is going to take forever due to the large map size.

Okay, I think we all know where this is going. Someone just cut to the chase and post

The sad part is this little spat in the tech thread might be the most entertaining moment of the game for me thus far.
On an aside, this is SO not the forum for the tyrannical hand. We're mostly older and the community polices itself. One of the many great things about RB.
I've got some dirt on my shoulder, can you brush it off for me?

Finals to write, next semester to prepare for, 9 million papers/exams to grade that have generally just been turned in, plus whatever research/scholastic activities on his own part he's doing. In know in League of Legends he's been busier than normal and participating less.
In short: Quite possibly just a bad time of year.
