HA! I'm not the only one?!
I could change mine a couple of days ago and now I can't! I think the mods took it away from us!! Why mods? WHY?!

...because the most ludicrous titles were invented ?

They might have deleted it so that it's clear from their title that they are moderators. and people could change their title into 'Moderator' and start manipulating people.
that kind of stuff..

Actually what happened was someone accidentally selected the wrong option on custom titles, after a 1000 posts you will be allowed to have your own custom title. If we feel someone is misusing it we will remove their ability to add custom titles.

I didn’t realize so many people discovered that custom title thing. It was only up for a day or two…

OMG! You responded!! Thanks for the info. I thought it was just me not knowing how to do it! Just like that email thing......:(
I got a question, why do some people have custom titles still? Do you just like them better? :)

Kvan, to answer your question, I have to do remove the custom titles manually. I want to be fair to everyone so all the custom titles will be removed. You where actually the only I noticed before this...

Paragon_Leon we don’t really have anything major planned for the next few weeks. We would like to create a way for users to post saved games and mods on this board though. If you have suggestions for new forums please let me know.

OIC, I'm sorry you have to manually remove them, must suck to be you right now :)
BTW Since you are actually responding to what I ask :D I have a suggestion, I think you need a mod for the nightime people. I've been on at night and haven't seen a mod at all. I think that Rommel would make a great mod :D
Really though you might consider getting one.

We definitely do need some dedicated mods for this board. I'll probably let the staffers who surf this forum more frequently pick them out. But if you guys have a few suggestions I’ll definitely keep them in mind.

Well I'm sure you guys have noticed our server problems lately. We really don't have much room on this server, so we had to remove the option to include files. Hopefully this will change when we move the network.

No offense taken, Kvan !
I'm actually kind of happy because i can refer to that remark if people start claiming that i spam on the forums.

I'm not sure about being a moderator yet.. it would probably require being online every day for a pretty long time. In october (you know, when i get cable...) it could be a possibility. We'll see what happens. They will probably start picking people only after several weeks.

But i will check in regularly. bet on it.

If the posting of the current mods has anything to say about it, you wouldn't have to be on that much. :D Anyways, i have nothing better to do anyways, except play AOK, and then theres school in 2 weeks.

If they'd asked me I would probably refuse. Altough I have cable modem I am not willing to spend a lot of time here ... especially when I have GB :)

But Leon being a mod is another sweet victory for our country (I know, I know ... there are more amarican mods here, but you name a few amarican mods on dutch forums, huh)

Yes, i went to a small, top class (but not rich), private school. It was part of a test program, and it was awesome.

BTW, Congrats Leon.

And Dave, i don't think i would turn down an offer to be a mod, although i don't know if i would recieve one either. And, i don't know of any Dutch forums. :D

i try to be on everybody's good side, but not at the cost of these boards or their content. so if there's too much post-wasting on a thread, i'll either cut it off, delete some posts that really say nothing or move the thread altogether. Don't worry, you know it'll make sense once it happens in the future.. ;)

Either when you vote for the person you say which Senator he/she is OR the mods make up all the Senator positions and fill them with the people we selected

Right now i'm leaning towards that idea, Kvan.. A set number of Senators is more manageable..

How bout we have one seat for every 20 or 30 or whatever number of people on the Forums. That way, the senate would grow as more people came. And, right now we'd have like 10 senators, but if we grew a lot, we could have a big senate.

Anyways, about the names, we could have like, "Defense Secretary" who could head up the multiplayer matches. "Supreme Chancellor", who would head the meetings, and so on....

Or we could just stick with senators, and a Supreme Chancellor, ehich would probably be good enough.
