About the situation on the EB forums as of late

[Krusader]

On behalf of the EB team.

Lately, the EB forums have deteriorated down to a level the EB team is not happy with. Spam, "in before the lock", insults, derailing threads with off-topic nonsense, with the Romaioktonoi and the silly Romans VS Hellenes one-liners are prime examples. No one, I repeat no-one within the EB team finds that funny at all. The last thing the EB team wants is the forums to devolve into a personal playground for a select few, as this makes newcomers hesitant to post on a forum that will not feel open. We want these forums to be about EB and a place to discuss history. That does not mean we want only educated academic discourse on our fora, far from it: we simply don't want to spend our time cleaning up SPAM, issuing warnings and closely monitoring our public fora, when we could be developing (not to mention bugfixing) EB.

Consider this a warning. If anyone continues with derailing threads, pointless spamming, trolling, posting offtopic Romaioktonoi/anti-Roman/anti-Greek nonsense, insults, trying to lock threads etc. that goes against ORG policy will have their access removed. You won't be able to post here again. No exceptions.
