I once had a post removed so quickly I didn't even get to see it after I pressed the 'post' button.

That's because you are so old that by the time you actually hit the key...minutes had gone by...I know that...because Sharpe implied it....one time. (makes scout hand sign) Lenin Pioneer honor.....honest to goodness or may Stalin purge me....

lol JagNeun that's pretty funny

Doubt it will even be edited. At most a mod will remove to word Fu**. The poster will certainly not be banned, he is after all, on the right side of the fence.

That is because some animals are more equal!

Not that i am comparing those ardent fans to said animals.

lol you too?

Once or twice I wondered if I had actually posted or if maybe my tablet browser was misbehaving or something.

Infamy! Infamy! They've all got it in for me!

This whole unlock thing seems to me like buying a bottle of vodka and discovering that it has blue antifreeze in it.



So for weeks we're forced to drink blue antifreeze with our vodka (I only drink a small glass each night!)

Then the manufacturers offer a way to remove the antifreeze (but only if you bought the bottle with the Gold label, or you can pay extra and get the Gold label added) and now everyone is telling the manufacturer how wonderful they are for removing the antifreeze.

But at the end of the day you still have blue vodka... :|










Sorry, I'll stop posting whilst I'm drinking.

I'm younger than Sharpe....but I'm still a geriatric....so maybe.

Vodka hell...Have you been doing Acid again?

It says a lot about how little activity there is on that board that Mods can have a running "whose naughty and whose nice" list at hand and apply varying degrees of censure based upon said list.

To me...that's a sign of market failure.

Not recently!

Official BoS forum moderators when one of the ardent fans breaks the forum rules:



Official BoS forum moderators when someone on their 'haters' list enters the forum:

No kidding, and it is still there - simply wow!

It's still there, over an hour later. Jason's seen it, Zaks seen it...

Now what I find interesting about that poster, is he is a premium founder, and that is only his 12th post on the forum, yet has been a member since Dec 2012.

That is one hell of a 12th post.

Reported it for language content

He is carrying the mods and ardent fans water for them by telling a "hater" who dares to question the wisdom on the new and improved arbitrary unlocks discrimination policy....to f off...where have we seen this show before of the official Powers allowing the policing of one "out group" by another "in group"...which don't have police authority

Who needs Orwell and Animal Farm when you have the official BoS forum



Post 131 another statement of truth to power - http://forum.il2sturmovik.com/topic/14433-developer-diary-part-87-discussion/page-4

But then I see the fawning and sycophancy going on over there on this "wise" decision and how the devs are now listening

It's akin to the original policy --- you will pay us and we will beat you daily

Much complaining and misery

Months later

OK! we will now only beat you every other day...are we not merciful and wise!

Much praise and rejoicing!

Maybe he's been too busy playing BoS to find the time to post, he does have 22 hours in...

Personally I applaud them making this decison. But did it really need to be this hard?

I used to feel the need to run Crap Cleaner after checking any news site, now I know its true purpose.

The gold barrers at the new champ site are happy campers though.
