    How typical... I'll comment on your TWC-thread evidence at least...

    Yup, I did that, I don't think it was the best call I ever made, but technically it was a completely legit and correct call. The TWC staff at the time agreed. The problem here is specifically that it was you who posted it, this made it more complicated then it would have been otherwise, due to our personal antagonism. As you frequently and generally had problems in actually focusing on the topics at hand, I decided to act all the same - despite this sensitive dimension to it. If I made a mistake, then it was that and little else. Not the reasons why I acted.

    It was an off-topic remark and clearly irrelevant to the discussion at hand. I removed it (all over) as to minimize confusion for visitors, and politely asked that you respected the actual topic (which you have failed at again I see, as you have obviously edited it back, now at a later date. It still is as incompatible and irrelevant to v.1.1 as ever, but you don't care about that of course, never did I guess). It happened to be XL/Tyberius, I would have done the same thing had it been spelled "BKB supmod" or "Donald Duck Mod" or whatever - as long as it was not compatible with v.1.1 - it had no place there. You knew that already and still you posted it. Maybe to test/provoke me or maybe something else. I can't tell. What I do know is that Tyberius work has diddly to do with that thread, as none of it is compatible with v.1.1 in the first place, ergo it is irrelevant. What was done was done, and that for the reasons I have just explained... Had it been today, I would have requested another moderator to do this one, just to avoid the possibility for BS accusations like this....

    Oh no, that is your domain, always was... We both know that... I have my own flaws, but that one is yours...

    Anyway, I have already spent far more time on you and your ridiculous claims here then deserved (yet again). If people are stupid enough believe your stuff, fine so be it. If they want to ignore common sense and believe that it was evil magic and imagined laser-beams that made Atomic delete the Tyberius-files, then so be it. They are gone all the same, and that is what matters. I have already said what clearly needed to be said about your "insights" on the Tyberius-case, and I stand by it, until proven wrong.

    Bollocks. It was typical of every "call" you ever made at TWC.

    So you edited because it was my post...?

    It was no mistake on your part, that much is clear.

    Topic: Any Worthwhile Mods For Med Standalone?

    My comment: I would strongly recommend that you get the VI Expansion. This will open the doors for you to a whole world of different mods

    I would also highly recommend the XL/Tyberius mod.


    Now explain exactly why that is 'offtopic'? I first recommended VI and in the following sentence, the XL/Tyberius mod. I don't see a problem and this has happened hundreds of times here over the years without anyone editing anyone's posts... the OP could take it or leave it and no one complained except you.

    In fact the OP later posted: Just an update, I have found my old copy of Viking Invasion and installed it. Thus, I'll hold off on mods for a bit; as I love that game vanilla.

    Offtopic as well no doubt? Yet you didn't censor that or split it to a new thread...

    It means that my advice was relevant and on topic - I think most reasonable people would agree...

    Your problem with that post was a) because it was me and b) because I recommended XL/Tyberius. Simple abuse of power which you are going to great lengths to explain away.

    The linked thread is also an embarrassment for you as it clearly shows where you take a perfectly innocent comment "any worthwhile mods" and turn it into something else entirely...

    All this, yet above you said "I don't think it was the best call". Yet a few paragraphs on you're still trying to defend your actions. It was abuse of position, pure and simple - that's what you did during your tenure at TWC and that's why you're no longer a mod at TWC.

    It was in fact a perfectly valid post. No one but you, with a grudge against me and against Tyberius and his mod would have edited it - so stop trying to excuse yourself.

    As I said, laughably transparent - so you took the post as a personal provocation?

    Yet you've made no "ridiculous claims", none at all... you're always correct and everyone just has to take your word for it. If you had any sense at all you'd actually be embarrassed to keep bringing up your personal feuds in such a public manner. But of course you'll blame me for the same thing - lucky for you really that a lot of the posts here where you tried to provoke me are gone - but the staff know it happened - but no, of course they're against you as well...

    The hardest part for you to understand is: No one actually cares about your hate campaign against Tyberius or me or anyone else...

    Not really, if you go whining to atomic gamer about plagiarism, they will usually err on the side of caution and just take the files down. I stated this earlier. It doesn't mean that someone at atomic gamer sat down and looked through the whole case in detail and totally agreed with you...
