    We avoid a ton of flamewars and mis-directed topics with that one tiny action. I don't mean to pick on you, it just seemed a good time to demonstrate an object lesson, so I apologize for any embarrassment. This 'rule-of-etiquette' applys to everyone, throughout our multinational, multi-lingual forums.

    Marine Officer ain't a bad career choice. Command a company of 200 guys who can make a difference, at age 25. Beats the heck outta cubicle life, IMHO. But to each, his own.
    Apologies, I thought Joe would've known it was sarcastic. I find smileys often ruin the sarcasm by making it blatantly obvious (LOL HERES A SMILEY IF UR 2 STUPID).

    I think we're going off topic here. We need to discuss the important issues!

    Hmm... Problem is, they have all the power:(

    We COULD demand they show a printscreen from an actuall totalwar game... I am quite sure that would get rid of about half the mods on this site;)

    As with any Communist Democratic People's Forum, to preserve the ultimate liberties of the striving masses to groupthink, it is necessary for termination of undesirable thought-crime.
