You are posting. I.e. creating a post. Different from creating a thread (minor detail), but it's there in the rules. 

How about you all make up, and let the forums get back to normal. Or is this obsession with moderation of a GAME forum too much to get over for some?

Personally sick of the handful of players destroying OUR forums just because they feel the need to troll mods. There is plenty of other interesting action happening on the server that could be discussed. Just my opinion.

I am surprised you have your own opinion .... did you ask permission?
Weird you were the last player I though would up up elbow deep in those moderators ar... ah well you get the picture :)
They pay good or do you have to pay?

to be honest now im confused by that rule 


1)private messages between players ( either both parties agree or its removed // in game messages and chat are NOT included unless they have coordinates ( hence sometimes the chronicles include them ))


2) any and all messages between players and support are not allowed // any and all messages between players through different service or app are not allowed ( if both parties agree on posting it then its okay )

note that if a player shares the messages with Moderators to discuss their actions ( then its not allowed )

3) messages with Alyona or Oberon ( this one i never actually seen or heared of it the rule is to prevent the players from discussing administrators actions but for example if players ask administrators for info or in game feature or help then posting  the answer to the question is ok like me where at times i quoted Alyona to the letter in my answers when the game goes down lol )


the above mentioned points are the rules as far as i used to know maybe now its different xD



They are written down right here.   like Oracle, you seem to have applied a broad brush to their application, or they have been changed since you were a mod.

here is why i have been totally opposed to Oracle becoming a mod. at one point in time he was PMing me asking me what game he should play next because of how much he disliked plarium. 


now that he is a mod, he applauds their every move....


thatd be like me signing up to be a mod.... as outspoken as i have been, then all of a sudden being their biggest cheerleader.

ouraging the behavior that is obviously not constructive in that thread. 
exactly what direction?  who deleted it if not you? It's common courtesy to explain WHY a post is deleted and my post had no derogatory remarks and did not reflect negatively in any way towards any individual that had made any comments in that thread - I simply pointed out what the "Leagues" thread specifies on the heading what it is for ......

Lady jezebel, I am sure you are aware that I am not the only moderators, they are many moderators, some of them work in the background. They are French moderators, German and Russian moderators, moderators from other platform are given the same power here. The are also Administrators from other platforms. All these people can have same privileges. I might be a moderator on Stormfall: Age of war, but when I go to other games forums, the same powers are still there, although I am adviced to not use them.

Our forum is the most active of all Platforms, so it attract many people. 

By the way moderators can overrule each others decision, and that of the CM, although moderators have less privileges and power, I can restore post deleted by other moderators, and so can they. The power is the same. 

You could have also deleted your post, which I will still see. ( recently I saw two post saying the same thing by two different people, my guise was the first was an alt( which deleted the post), so I reported them, the first was not a main).

As per your request ORACLE in the pm you sent me after you restored my post 


you need to actually consider what you are deleting before doing so - you are not the new forum RULE MAKER  to decide what you think is suitable - you are power tripping see how far this gets you


your judgement of other people is already flawed so you are not able to maintain a neutral perspective on the forums

I have not deleted any post, I only restored your post. 

As I have explained, I have got numerous complaints, and I have decided that the thread must not continue in the way it was. 

you would have had to have deleted it in order to restore it


complaints about MY post that had no offensive references to any one person or league but simply stated that the Leagues thread is used to intimidate our foes, brag about our leagues and recruit?

By the way..... here is the rule.  Why do you keep adding in your own versions of these rules?

3.15 Create posts discussing forum moderation decisions, such as banning, closing forum threads, deleting forum posts / threads, etc. This also includes publicly sharing any private messages from Community Administrators or Moderators regarding disciplinary actions taken towards you. The discussion of forum/group moderation actions generally leads to inflaming the community and trolling Community Administrators and Moderators. As such, this type of discussion is strictly prohibited under the forum rules.

The thread in question was about me being fed up with '' plarium starting Halloween tournament ''. As all members know I am against such tournament. and browse in the archives will result in many such topics. Becoming a moderator doesn't change the fact that I am now in favor of such tournament. 

I have changed largely, after Plarium took a project to transfer Kabaam players into their server, something which Plarium was not liable to do. And I have become a die hard fan of Plarium after they undertook a project to start and App during rumors that ''flash was dying'', and people where leaving the game. 

Probably two more reasons why I become a moderator, Who won't. I have played many games, and trust me, I have much better customer serviced here, so becoming a moderator, for a such a company is a BIG + for

"A lot of people play this game, would like to have more people on the forum discussing everything so we can move forward with game progress :)"

Well said DrFondles.

I don't need anybody's permission to voice my opinions. As for being elbow deep etc etc, you are missing the whole point here Dutch Viking. 

I do not want animosity with you or others. I am just trying to point out that this mod bashing fad has done the full circle now, and is becoming dull. Surely as a league Captain you have better things to do with the time you have for the game.

I definitely don't make the forum rules (in fact, I've never bothered to read them), but am happy enough to play within them. Just saying, you might have a more relaxed time if you gave it a shot.

Just a comparison

A very important thread


Impressive number of views, per replies. 

Check these recruiting threads.


In less that a short time , those thread generated, half of the the views generated by the important, and pinned thread.

Now check these thread. 

Numbers tells a lot. 119 replies, but less than a thousand views.  
Also still has 4 stars. Should get all those views into more replies for other threads. A lot of people play this game, would like to have more people on the forum discussing everything so we can move forward with game progress :)
