Have a read of the board and see for yourself all the info you will ever need is there.

pimp, what you need to do is get the topic started yourself. In the posts you've made in the past, you provide only the equivalent of a book title. For example, I like MTW. Do you? What you should do is tell us more - why do you like MTW? Single player campaign? Multiplayer online? Variety of units? Strategy? Battlefield tactics? And so on. You don't have to write a book, but you do need to provide enough information or commentary to hook the readers into responding. If you aren't excited enough about the topic to write more than one or two sentences, then why should the reader get excited about the topic and post a reply?

The same goes if you have a problem. If assassins are never successful when you use them, don't just post that assassin's stink. Explain how you've tried to use them as well. This will give the reader something to base his reply on to help you. The more information you provide, the better the chance someone will help you with your problem.

I hope that helps give you a little guidance on how to post. http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/pat.gif

Hey $pimpboy$ http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/wave.gif
I think you dont really need to explain every topic you post. By giving your topic a provocative title like lets say President Bush's Policies Supporter (and make a suitable sig http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif )I think you would have a whole bunch of responses and ... a discussion probably http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif

And I hope I NEVER see such flagrantly violent (kidding or not) topics again. Hate expressed in a brutal, racial and personal way.

$pimpboy$, the above two mentioned posts have stepped far beyond the bounds of what we allow here. They have been removed from the forums. I fully expect to see no further posts of this nature. Thank you for your cooperation.

[Lord Of Storms]

I agree whole heartedly with Gregoshi, those posts were in poor taste,bad manner and form ,whatever else I can think of, and in my opinion you should be dealt with in the same harsh manner you saw fit to decribe in the mindless drivle you posted, I can only hope the exposure here was minimal so others did not have to be subject to such base and vile crap http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/angry.gif IMHO you dont show yourself as someone who wishes to participate as a member of this community and obviously feel you have a forum for your twisted agenda, take it somehwere elsehttp://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/gc-furious3.gif LOS

Lol, I believe our dear and respected member Eastside Character won't be so hasty to help out anyone any time soon… He, he…

Have I created a monster? http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/frown.gif http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/gc-oops.gif

I'd like to apologize as I feel kind of partly responsible for what $pimpboy$ did. http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/gc-oops.gif

Nonsense, Eastside Character, it wasn't your responsibility. Some kids…

Gregoshi, regards and sincere recommendations, kill this evil offspring or at least lock it down.

Respectfully,
