forgetting any voicemods?

Oh, don't get me wrong, I never said that you offended anyone, I was merely warning you that it doesn't take a lot to turn Foot against you. Better watch out for him - he stays true to his name, crushing every post that is goes against history and EB!

although you might have the right intention at heart, this is still untrue- EB tolerates quite a high degree of skepticism, criticism and anachronism, nonetheless spam for the sake of spam and troll-feeding... sometimes Foot or other moderators might need to put a stop to such for the sake of the community (thank the Heavens), but it is hardly any infringement on free speech / thought or police state implied by the all or nothing mentioned. The high degree of posts NOT deleted and threads NOT locked when they should be (such as this one), besides threads only locked much later, all illustrate what I say concerning censorship. We all know how out of control the 'mob' is when it comes to trollspamination [yes, a new word I invented just now ], so let us not discuss why censorship and moderators exist on the internet in the first place...

PS - Persian Cataphract, you only mention Scandinavia because you have lived there it is hardly so interolerant or Romanocentric to get special mention...

PPS - Rome never conquered Germany, nor Persia, besides others. Winning battles (forays against tangible armies) is hardly 'conquest'. Being uncontested at times along their borders maybe-so. Napoleon won IN Russia, yet did not conquer it.

*- Here's the philosophical question of the day: should a culture be highly valued for its historical spam? Literary or elsewise? That's what Rome did (and I'm not talking about Cicero or writers of similar esteem). So yes, nobody wrote quite as much as Rome and thus that is the perspective many have... ugh and bleh
