Ironic in its own sense since it is what it quotes and therefore violates rule #6.

Re: Wh... wha.... what happened to the community?? :'(
 

Excellent display of what happened to the community.

Re: Wh... wha.... what happened to the community?? :'(
 

Nahh, not until an enforcer shows up

Re: Wh... wha.... what happened to the community?? :'(
 

Back (sort of) after a long hiatus and see this thread. Bummer.

There is a community?

How do I join them?

Re: Wh... wha.... what happened to the community?? :'(
 

Here: Community

Noobs like you should be careful there, though!

Re: Wh... wha.... what happened to the community?? :'(
 

This is a horrible travesty. I hope you all recover!

Re: Wh... wha.... what happened to the community?? :'(
 

That's not a community, it's a cesspit. The community is here, it says so on the top: "com.unity".

BTW, Juffos really isn't a noob at all. He just doesn't post much.

Every forum has a feel and a purpose.
Thats good. It keeps one forum from feeling like it has to allow everything in order to provide for everyone.

DISCLAIMER: These are NOT my words:::::
The "cesspit" is a good forum for serious debaters who feel that Dom3 is a serious wargame to be played by serious players. A boxing club. A place where the elite and best-of-the-best dont have to bother playing nicey-nice for people who havent bothered to cough up the bucks for the game yet. (not my words).

And this forum is a bouncy ball castle full of child-like fun and unencumbered whimsy. A place where optimistic "guides" and rosey descriptions are prized over hard cold facts. Where never-ending discussion is considered the life of the forum more than expert answers are. (again, not my words)
END OF DISCLAIMER::::::

As far as MY WORDS? Well, I am not saying I agree with any of the above. Nor can I completely disagree. Which is probably why I am best homed here. :target:

Re: Wh... wha.... what happened to the community?? :'(
 

This forum needs a strong leader! (not my words)

Re: Wh... wha.... what happened to the community?? :'(
 

This forum needs a strong leader?
You mean someone who impersonates its ideals?
Is bouncy, full of child-like fun and unencumbered whimsy? More about being optimistic and rosey descriptions than hard cold facts? Able to maintain never-ending discussion, spark subjects when things get slow, able to maintain drama or even instigate some if things get too quiet? That kind of a leader?

Someone recognized as the very counterpoint to the leader of the other forum?

Thanks. But they fired me. :)
:target:

Re: Wh... wha.... what happened to the community?? :'(
 

Quoted for great justice.

Re: Wh... wha.... what happened to the community?? :'(
 

I thought someone would like that :)

Re: Wh... wha.... what happened to the community?? :'(
 

I don't get this thread.

Re: Wh... wha.... what happened to the community?? :'(
 

There was a member banned from here who was also a popular modder, a lot of people (including me) was (and still are) quite upset about it. This led to several members being banned, we have set up an alternative forum here as a way to keep up the communication, you can consider both forums to be part of the same community. It may be worthwhile to check it out since some of the major mod projects have moved there now.

That's the root of it, the rest is just internal drivel basically.

Re: Wh... wha.... what happened to the community?? :'(
 

So it really doesn't have anything to do with playing the game?

Re: Wh... wha.... what happened to the community?? :'(
 

NO, and for the most part most of us have friends in both forums. Also BOTH forum members can play in the games.

Just some of us/them have decided that they would prefer to have a different forum with different rules. Actually I think it is a good idea as you can get exposure from 2 different mindsets.

Re: Wh... wha.... what happened to the community?? :'(
 

You must be talking about some other Zen Gandalf. :confused:

The Zen I remember was an royal as*hole and a narcissist jerk with an ego the size of a building. I think Dominions forum is much better without him as a mod. I've missed that incident you are talking about, but all I can say is - good riddance! :rolleyes:

To his credit- he did some good stuff as a modder. But as a moderator he was a very bad pick.

All of the above is my personal opinion of course, you are certainly entitled to yours.

Re: Wh... wha.... what happened to the community?? :'(
 

History repeats itself!

Re: Wh... wha.... what happened to the community?? :'(
 

I've NEVER recalled Sombre having an ego of any sort. He can be snarky or harsh with his comments but don't accuse people of random **** if you can't back it up.

Re: Wh... wha.... what happened to the community?? :'(
 

Interesting that you assumed I was talking about Sombre.

Re: Wh... wha.... what happened to the community?? :'(
 

*I* happened to this community. Case closed.

Re: Wh... wha.... what happened to the community?? :'(
 

Order in the court!
