saying what you did could be considered a big jab at clayton.

Such is life........
As long as you allow Clayton to post here, things will likely never improve!
Lets face it, he really does not seem to be getting the message. While some, and I stress "SOME" of his posts may have merit, the majority just seem like a strangled cry for attention. I've lost count of the times he has been asked to collaborate all his questions then post in a single post. Perhaps not the best solution to the problem, but certainly the least antagonising as far as those folks whom he rubs the wrong way are concerned.

I say reinstate him and raise the warning level to 10 and run a book on how long it takes him to reach it.
Go Clayton go! :charge:

Wow, one patron causes the whole .org experience to come crashing down? surely he doesn't do that much damage. Of course, you always have the option to...wait for it... Ignore him.

And THIS alone merits a ban from the entire site for good? how easy moderating is in your eyes. I wonder if the same people who claim to want a ban for clayton would be the same to support a thread that said we went to far if we ever did.

If you don't like him, it's very simple. Don't read his threads. The world will not come to an end...

Enough! No more Clayton bashing.

We have rules here: no flaming, no personal insults, no harassing other patrons. Those rules apply to everybody equally. We do not and will not tolerate bullying.

As Monk says, if a patron annoys you put them on your ignore list.

I am sorry if I offended you Monk. My post was not intended to be humorous. I thought more of it like a voice of reason, or something like that. I have played enough of RTW to see the unreasonable loss of 200 romans lead by a 10 star general vs 10 gallic swordsmen. Neither do I judge Clayton just because of this single thread. But I do have a quite good ability of seeing patterns, if you get my point?

Anyway, I'll stop this immediately, now that I have got your point.

Blessings

You did not offend me, but over the last week clayton has been bashed at every turn. As an Assistant Moderator my purpose is to make sure patrons are not doing what has been going on.

Posting 'he's a troll', even if you have reasons for doing it, is an attack on him no matter if you, or I, or anyone think it's a justified one or unjustified. The .org does not stand for such attacks.

It is easy to forget that the one you are speaking with may be much younger than yourself, and even a statement like the one you made could hurt them deeply. That is why our policy is that it is.

you have my thanks. :bow:

Just because it's easy and fun dosen't make it right...don't bully him...if he continues this he will get himself banned in no time. (just guessing based on the rate that he is getting warnings)


Anyway, as you can see the moderators have been dealing with the issue. He has goten a level 5 warning, and has been banned. So why bother?

Just my 2cents... :bow:

'why is he banned.

Why does Claytons threads always go down the pan? It only attracts people who want to have a go at him - I admit I have done so myself and was warned about it. This sort of behavior is not good for the .Org and I apologize to Clayton and others for my part in this. If you really feel so strongly about it - ignore him - as your attacks only draw attention to yourself.

ah i'm not attavking him. i'm one of the few people helping and protecting him. i told him to keep low profile and not to get banned. so i wanna know why he's banned for. can anyone tell me

i play Rome Total War almost every day so how can i lose to 10 men!

Makes the game more exiting don't you think? Not much fun if you win all the time ~;)

Just try different tactics, skirmish more before they reach your battle line, flank them with light cavalry if you have them.

tried it i am like a JR Julius Caesar at RTW (Rome Total War) so HOW CAN I BE LOSING

Maybe you should lay off the drugs, send your cavalry around back, have your infantry throw pila first, and make sure that they're facing the right way?

i do i even use the Tustido formation to get by Archers i use town watch agianst Calvery and i use Calvery agienst Archers so why am i losing i am doing everything right so how is it that i lose to Gauls and Numandia HELP

Take some time, collect your thoughts, check your spelling and grammar, and use sentences. That's the first step towards being a winning general.

Well the testudo formation is seriously bugged and town watch are pretty rubbish so maybe that is what you are doing wrong.

Are you outnumbered in most cases? Although that should not be a problem to Roman infantry.

He claims to have a 20-to-1 advantage in manpower.

That is rare, almost impossible.

no i am not outnumbered. i have two hundred men and they had only one hundred men. why would i be losing? i hope this time i am using the right grmmar. mabe someone can teach me this stuff. like they can e-mail me and i e-mail a report back and they give me a grade. ~;)

The only other thing is that the battle timer ran out other than that you need to brush up on your tactics then you will be like me: 400 Roman's beating 4000 Gauls. ~:)

i am very good at the game i did the same tactics in other battles at teh same place with the same number agianst the same number and i still lost.

Good at the game but not good on the battles. Just play about and see what tactics work best. ~:)

Wow, that was great! It's so much easier to read your post's when you use punctuation ~:thumb:


1: what exact units are you using? do you use alot of town watch/velites?
2: did you attack the enemy up hill?
3: What was your over all battle plan?

Lol, that is the funniest thing i have seen yet...especially the comment about making them face the right way. But, i have to ask one question. Why would a junior member who only joined recently have something against clayton already? Usually you have to be quite well established member here to have a dislike of him, but you already seem to hate him. Unless you are on of the other members here, with a secret account so that you can flame clayton without anyone finding out? Trust me, it doesn't work.

to answer your question MC , he is probably here for the flame war ~;)

On topic :

If you keep losing , try making them attack you , fire at will on , and guard mode , that will help.

:balloon2:

I've been thinking the same thing Mikeus.I also think it's a possibility that Clayton is in fact also another members alter-ego who likes to stir it up a bit.He doesnt bother me however as i find it all very amusing and as a moderator pointed out we can ignore him if we wish to.I don't see the need to however. ~:cheers:

I actualy find it funny how everyone is yelling and arguing about this. I've always loved reading flamewars. I would be annoyed about all of the spam, but it is just too much fun watching everyone scream at each other. I do think he should put all the questions in one post though. Maybe we could limit him to one new thread a week so that he would have to put down many questions at once. That would be nice.

Clayton, it's because you suck. Man, you have velites or skirmisher or hastati, you should chuck those pointy mushrooms(Don't know where I got that from~D ) at those poor gits and they're dead.
