Design Flaw in the Global Variant
I have now encountered several times a design flaw in the global variant in that fleets may not pass between Armenia and Moscow (which has a Black Sea Coastline bordering Armenia); neither can they support an action between them. Armies may move and support unimpeded; but fleets may not. What is to be done about that? Game Masters, please respond.

Would you assume the mod was joking? Or would you assume (as I did) the mod was serious?
Draugnar (0 DX)
07 Jul 14 UTC
I stand by the argument that mods have a greater responsibility to the site to *not* act like pricks as they have the power and we have no measure of discernment when they are being pricks themselves or are serious.

Draugnar (0 DX)

Dam it, the forum stripped part of it off.

The mod said "so and so wasn't doing such and such" and then order me to "stop being a prick". The mod later claimed he was joking. No smiley face in the original post or any other indicator he was being a prick himself.
I've replied to this in the thread, but it's probably better to branch it off.

I wasn't joking about asking you to stop being a prick. I said the comment you unreasonably flipped out over was an obvious joke.

None of my comments were in my capacity as a mod but as another forum member, which I failed to specify initially but have since clarified.

Any further questions?

So, you admit your original post *could easily* have been interpreted in an official fashion. Yet you think you did nothing wrong?

Likewise, the original post in question insinuated (jest or not) that the other posters were morons. I'll take offense at whatever I fucking please, asstard.

The only thing I did wrong was carry it *too* far with *too* many posts. Which is why when abge asked me in PM to stop, I did.

Yeah right. Hectoring someone with a barrage of multiple comments in a short space of time, in which you swear horribly at them, call them out, and generally behave like a complete dick.... that's just dickish. You should not be proud of your conduct. PE is right to call you a prick.

I like the fact that the Mods can still take part in the forum, why shouldn't they.
Do they deserve extra abuse from senior forum members just because they have volunteered to help, ask yourself that question, it's a bit churlish and boring to continually whine on about them and berate them ..... it's no fun and it borders on bullying, no one likes a bully

No, I'm standing up for what is right. Am I being a prick? Absolutely. Is it making a point? Absolutely.

"@Jamiet - I was intentionally being a prick to make a point. It's called being over the top and is very common amongst comedians."

Judging by the fact that you're the only one who thinks you aren't being a prick right now, I can only assume the point you were trying to make is that you're a prick. If that was the point, congratulations on sincerely reestablishing what everyone already knows. If that was not the point, you should perhaps entertain not acting like a prick to make a point, because the takeaway everyone gets is "you're a prick," not... whatever your point was.

Speaking of, what was your point in all of this?

Two points actually:

A) Mods need to think before responding or their comments may be taken seriously and in an official capacity - something you helped prove with your own stupid comment declared to be "as a member" after the fact.

B) Having everyone make the official list by adding their names to it is fraught with cross posting and muted user issues - something proven immediately by abge and TMoW so immediately the irony was simply delicious.

This is really simple so all members and mods pay attention. If a moderator is posting in an official capacity or warning you as such then they will do so by signing their post with some variation of their status in the moderator team. Zultar and Kestas are Co-Owners so they can do whatever they want.

Since I have Draug's permission and the issue is cleared up in his view I'm locking this. If you have any concerns or confusion about whether a moderator is giving you a warning please feel free to contact [email protected], Zultar, or myself via pm. Preferably me via pm only if the other 2 methods fail to get a reply.

The War of Tumblr versus 4Chan
Anyone else watching the war of Tumblr vs. 4Chan play out? It's getting heated and somewhat illegal. Then again, it may not and it's all a bluff from both sides. But if it is true then there must be a lot of hackers with free-time and no need to gain any monetary value.

Realpolitik Diplomacy-sign ups
Realpolitik diplomacy is diplomacy with a twist, unlike the standard game, this game will be played with a internal politics mechanism. Instead of playing as a country, you play as a political party within that country, vying not only to be the dominant force on the board, but also to command the loyalties of your electorate. See in side for the rules.
