This is where you can discuss your homework, family, just about anything, make strange sounds and otherwise discuss things which are really not related to the Lancer-series. Yes that means you can discuss other games.

There was a day the Off Topic forum didn't even exist!


NOOO! That's Impossible!

Well, I kinda thought of the OT to be not related in anyway to the Lancer games. Ofcourse it's on this site, but the popularity of SL/FL shouldn't affect it as much as you imply. At least that's what I expected anyway. But perhaps I'm wrong.

And Kimk, fyi, I made Rear Admiral in 6 months

Anyway, maybe I've "outgrown" TLR, who knows. Or perhaps TLR:OT just changed and I didn't notice it. Or I've simply been away too long. Damn I miss the old days. Excuse the sentiments.

But I stand by my opinion, TLR:OT isn't as active as it's been, which might be because SL/FL are too old, but I doubt it, seeing that many new guys are still joining.
Oh well, just some rambling of a sentimental ph00l

My heart went out a bit when I had my Commodore rank stripped from me, in cold blood. Here I am, Mr. Commodore when BAM, I'm a colonel. Just not right...

It's gotten a lot more quiet since taw and DSQrn left I think. not less spamming necessarily...certainly less of the philosophical arguments that went on here...

IN THE TOPICS THAT WERE ALWAYS LOCKED BY THE MODS!!!

Careful, Wilde. I have it on good authority that some of the mods here have had their sense of humor surgically removed as part of their preparation for moderator-hood.

Thats not true, people do say I'm a silly looking son of a gun.

But, yes, the stiring of the pot has stopped. For the better, I believe.

Somehow it was always MY topics that you locked *sigh...*



Oh yeah. And all of you altogether have to date deleted no fewer than ten posts I've made in the "Comical, Amusing, and Nonesensical thread". That's almost every bloody post!!

but it is good that people aren't spamming so much.

Post Mon Jan 17, 2005 7:22 pm

Actually, the "Comical, Amusing, and Nonesensical thread" is deleted back to start, so that it does not get too big.

Post Tue Jan 18, 2005 12:57 pm

Yeah, Wilde, It does say that it will be periodically deleted. Post counts shouldn't matter that much either. The main reason I come here is to hang out with people in other parts of the world that like videogames.

Is that what we are here for? I thought it was the bragging rights that we have nothing better to do :-p j/k

It might be that there isn't much to talk about that doesn't get locked quickly. We should have a politics forum somewhere...

I know...but whenever I post a link SOMEONE finds it "offensive" to their "personal beliefs" and the Mods HAVE to pull it down...*shakes head*

Post Tue Jan 18, 2005 6:55 pm

You hear the statement, that this is a family site. Well, that includes kids, teens, parents too. It is intended that what is posted is clean, sound and does not cause out right offence. Some links, are offensive, and some that post them know this, to the point that they post a statement to that effect. Well, you have no grounds then, that it is or can be offensive. There is a place for that type of thing, just not here. Violence, anti-religous, political hacking and so forth, causes flames and anger, therefore, they are deleted or were locked. Its not that you arn't allowed to see these things, but that you will have to look at them somewhere else.

As long as it is clean, no one will lock or delete it. Censoreship? Yes, the criteria of it being a family site, requires it. It isn't an attack against anyone, just a protection in place.

and does not cause out right offence


So, subtile offenses can be made?
Seriously, I've rebelled (slightly) against the sersoring here, but in the end it's the forum rules and well, if you don't agree go somewhere else, because the mods/admins aren't gonna change their views, likely...
