How to play Russia in Gunboat
Title. I suck at Russia in gunboat. I have no clue what high level strategy I should be going for. I just always die after accomplishing virtually nothing.

Rhyme Time II
I'm looking for a few good word magicians. Give me your nobles, your humble and fancy patricians. I need 7 players to commit to a time; to play an unranked press game whose objective is rhyme.

Bullying and harassment on the forum
I have a couple questions regarding this because I think a recent thread that was locked today brings up a lot of good questions that I think need to be asked.

We should bring the thread down a level, too, and try and be a bit more respectful of others views; even (and especially) when we disagree with them.
I'm just trying to understand what's motivating you to be such an asshole? DO clearly didn't say anything to invite you to get your creepy demented middle-aged self off? (sorry to crush your dream if that's what you thought).

And you've been so out of order to MM. You tried deliberately to offend and get a rise out of him for no reason at all. Or I should say no good reason. Distracting yourself from the meaningless existence of being a walking piece of excrement is a reason of a kind.

Can you just explain why you're intentionally so unpleasant to people? And in basic terms so shit for brains over here can understand.

@Socrates Dissatisfied

HE MADE THIS THREAD YOU DUMBASS

constantly whining about the term motherfucker, yet the number of times i hear the word dick used as a pejorative is perhaps just as common on this site.

He's demanding that his sensibilities are superior to us, and that we should change. We're calling him out on his arrogance.

@soren dont like the way you talk to MM, you should stop.

@James - making à thread does not mean you invite people to personally insult you and drive you away from the website. What is wrong with you? Are you so insecure that you can not deal with MM stating his own views without getting personally offended?

Give the Mods a chance sweety pie, I only just sent the email. I hope this hurts, the player here who I have been having discussions with, because he is the player who I really do believe can give me something for a character, is....drum roll please....our beloved Dipbro Brainbomb. Positive things not negative white. I really do think Brainbomb can help me with my idealistic young Artist character, so ssorenn, you are regarded as light years behind Brainbomb in what you could possibly contribute, even as a flimsy basis for a villain.
A fictional character with a little bit of Brainbomb is going to have a lot more going for it than any character based on you.. characters like you are "ten a penny"... common, shallow, easy to find
Characters like our much loved Brainbomb are much rarer, far more interesting than you could ever hope to be, imho
So, in my books..Brainbomb is top 5%, you ssorenn are lowest 5%.

@DO, i really could care less--- i offered in the beginning of this thread, after MM was called out and he made an idol threat to me, that i would let it go, if he stopped addressing my name up ever....he chose to perpetuate this
@ss - no you don't "need" to. But DO bringing you up (only after you've been bullying someone else, but we'll leave that for a minute) doesn't give you the right to be the Grade A prick you have been to DO. Even forgetting about how repulsive you are to DO, you've been beyond appalling to MM. And for no obvious reason. As you said, you don't "need" to explain anything to me. But hopefully you can see why I (or anyone), would be curious as to what inspires a grown adult to be such a dick to people that haven't done anything wrong to him. Can you even explain it to yourself?

I probably wouldn't want such a deep look in the mirror if I were you, from here you truly seem like a hideous person, but it's good to reflect on yourself as a human being? Maybe one day you'll be a functional moral agent.

"making à thread does not mean you invite people to personally insult you and drive you away from the website."

no but it can given the content of the thread.

"What is wrong with you?"

...epilepsy?

"Are you so insecure that you can not deal with MM stating his own views without getting personally offended?"

no... actually my first posts were rather calm. But then he started ranting on and on and was being very pretentious. he constantly put himself on the moral high ground, and i thought it'd be nice to keep his ego in check. the almighty king, when faced with a few challenges, now flees.

SD, you may have your opinion. BYE thats whats great about this country---
@ JY. I saw from an earlier comment that you're just a stupid teen trying to assert yourself. That explains a lot. You don't want to be like ssorenn when you grow up, so just think fairly for a minute. Let's say MM is getting up on a high horse and just being stupid. Does that mean you should go out of your way to say things to offend him? You can disagree with someone whilst acting in a reasonably courteous way. Or if we are not aiming so high, with the basic decency you should extend in your interactions with other people. Be better than this man.

p.s. I read the entire thread before my first comment.

@ss. With respect to DO, your pervy ass "kinky" comment, and request for a bedtime story was just so beyond the line. Can't believe that's not an automatic rebuke from the mods to be honest. You carried on with it. In your deluded warped mind maybe you didnt perceive it that way, but yeah, it was screwed up. Your comments to MM though, are so obviously bad in a way that I hope even you can perceive.

@ ss and jy: I'm not some moral compass whom all must pass, but there's a certain amount of shitty behavior that someone can see without saying anything. Likewise JY, I don't unconditionally hate abuse, I think insults and hard truths are warranted when someone has been as unpleasant as you guys.

actually one more post because why the hell not

@SD

"@ JY. I saw from an earlier comment that you're just a stupid teen trying to assert yourself. That explains a lot."

yes yes, you know how to ad hominem. any substance in this?

"You don't want to be like ssorenn when you grow up, so just think fairly for a minute."

ok

"Let's say MM is getting up on a high horse and just being stupid. Does that mean you should go out of your way to say things to offend him?"

no it doesn't, you are correct.

"You can disagree with someone whilst acting in a reasonably courteous way. Or if we are not aiming so high, with the basic decency you should extend in your interactions with other people. Be better than this man."

shouldn't you do this as well? you're asking me to take the high road, but hen you turn around and take the low road against ssorenn. at least be consistent.

meanwhile this is an online forum where i disagree with the argument that one person has put forward. frankly i think a few vulgar words is a lot less hurtful than having to read through an entire mini-essay that MM writes. clearly i am missing some element of this conflict that bothers you so much

p.s. I read the entire thread before my first comment."

ok, thank you for doing so

@MM

"James, another innacurate, untruthful comment, and typically self centred.
I am not fleeing from you, this is not about you."

um... you said you were leaving to Vdip. it is because of people using language you deem vulgar. i have used language you deemed vulgar. ????

"This is a symbolic protest about standards. The only connection you might have is your appalling behaviour being used as an example"

ok... but rather than protesting, can you explain to me why the use of the word motherfucker is so awful? You've only given some generic arguments of it being anti-female, though the actual abuse is saying "you fucked a mother and you shouldn't do that" which if anything is a pejorative against a deviant male.

are those not standards to uphold, or are we going to circle back again to your sensibilities?

Feature request: expand mod powers
I've noticed that a lot of people have been having issues with mod's decisions lately and I think the forum would be a better place if the mods/ admins had the powers to do more than just ban a user and if they were allowed to, for example, also kill the user's family. Implementing a "-1 and ban" feature underneath the +1 feature may also be funny to watch. Thank you and I hope you take my ideas into consideration.

It would be really nice to have the countdown clock right above the order menu. That way one wouldn't have to scroll up to see how many precious seconds are left (wasting precious seconds). Would be pretty useful toward the end of the 5-minute 1v1's in which there are a lot of orders to fill.
