Re: OK! Let\'s Shut This Place Down!
 

Ok. I'll explain. I considered the phrase when I used it. My view is that the words "Friends and countrymen" can apply to those who are not "Americans".

Mainly the title and creative speech was to grab attention(It sure did.Hehe.) to invite others to visit spaceempires5.com. It might have seemed to suggest permanently leaving Shrapnel but that was not what I meant. I agree that this is a good community and I visit here and other sites.

Plus, some other sites are still trying to become more presentable.

I may pop over and have a look around. But that certainly doesn't mean I would abandon this site.

Somehow, "OK! Let's Shut This Place Down!" has a rather..... permanent..... feel to it http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image.../firedevil.gif

I have to agree, opening a speech with "Shutting this place down..." doesn't come off as the best pitch for getting us to change.

ok, enough of this PC stuff. The site will be restricted to Romans only. All writing will be in Latin. (At least, as veteran SE players, we're all used to the Roman numerals! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif )

How many M's do I have to write for a Sphereworld's Population again?

Gotta say I have no intention of going to the new site at this time. All the knowledge is here and quite honestly the community is here.

Even if I do little more then occasionally lurk anymore.
