Does this give us license to spam all forums, as long as we want to make sure everyone sees it?

Bollocks.

From Eroberklub
From Club Conquête
From De Veroveraars Club
From Clube da Conquista
From Erobrerklubben
I remember when you could be banned for posting in English in foreign language forums; do we have free reign to post wherever the hell we want now?

Bollocks.

In most of my posts, I'm trying to cast a broader net to make sure nobody gets missed, so I think I'll start posting elsewhere.

I think there's a bit of a difference between someone who's trying to do something to benefit the site as a whole, and someone who's only selling his own viewpoint. Just my opinion.

Now there is a interesting question, off topic posting in the off topic forum.

Serbia wrote:Does this give us license to spam all forums, as long as we want to make sure everyone sees it?


No, silly. You have to APPLY for the license. Then you have to stand in line until your number is called. Then after we all have a nice lunch we might get around to calling your number. (Oh dear, you are going to have to come back tomorrow, dreadfully sorry.) Then the next day we all laugh and reject your application.

Next question?

-----I said I know what Babble-on five is all about. I know some of you have been on here since 2006-300 games played/a few medals with 10,000 plus posts. I had permission to spread something fun. I see I am not the only one writing in English in Intern. I see I have some people overseas chatting it up a bit.They are apart of our club to and should not be left out. I guess a lot of you would have rained on the parade of HANDS ACROSS AMERICA, WE ARE THE WORLD AND FARM AID ALSO. Hell probably WOODSTOCK as well. It is a record that the every member involved..can share in. So if your going to rain, do it Feb.16th 3pm est/cct. Thank you kindly.ConfederateSS..out!(The Blue and Silver Rebellion). :D P.S. However,I left the Callouts,Mafia Games,SoC Training Grounds untouched. Because those are your special cliques,private games and learning areas. Although many people could have been reached. They deserve their privacy. :)

I think I speak for most of the off topics denizens when I say the following:

(1) We will be online at 3pm eastern time if we are interested in participating in or reading the off topics forum and not because we're participating in Hands Across Conquer Club.
(2) It is more likely that the posting of this OP in the off topics forum will cause off topics denizens to NOT sign in at the appointed date and time, just because.

TGD is quite correct on this matter.

Of course not posting it would also cause those same people to not sign in at the appointed time. :twisted:

But on the other hand, the lurkers here might be doubly encouraged to do so.
And the people who complain will have one more thing to complain about.
Because that is all they apparently ever do around here.
I don't think they even know how to play the game.
Just saying.

I'm confident in saying every off topics forum denizen knows how to play the game and started out playing the game. The question is, therefore, whether posting it in off topics will cause anyone to sign in at the appointed time and whether that number is more or less than who would otherwise have signed in at the appointed time. I think there are more people who will specifically NOT sign in at the appointed time because of this thread and therefore it's a net loss. That being said, people could sign in to prove me wrong. But then, of course, maybe people will think that was my intent in the first place and then they won't sign it.

It's a twisted web we weave.

Thanks for raising the specter of rules are meant to be bent, manipulated and expunged however the gods of conquer club feel.

This epitomizes this site in a nut shell. Make rules, enforce them on some and not others.

What the f*ck are the rules for if you are going to halfheartedly enforce them? Some are privileged and some aren't? Some are valued more than others? We are not all created equal? What's next? Are you going to base preferential treatment on colour? Nationality? Languages spoken? Sexuality?

RULES ARE RULES. You made them, live by them, or get rid of them.

It's 421. :twisted: (Edit: It seems that "find all games" gives more games than the official count.)

I have to look up my details, but there are large gaps in my history.

Let's see, there was the year a half gap (2008-07-21) - (2010-02-07)
and then there was another year and a half gap (2011-01-19) - (2012-08-26)

So for most of those years I was a very casual player.
