What's this with "Battle orders"?

radcapricorn · 12-29-13, 10:05 AM

I keep getting that image at the top whenever I enter any forum topic:

"Attention <some names> Please PM Neal Stevens ASAP for battle orders". It's a link that leads to creating a PM; the tooltip says "Subsim wants to upgrade your account". I ignored it for some time, because I generally pay no heed to ads appearing in forums. I just accidentally noticed that it's not quite an ad.

In short: what in the world is this?

It is Neal Stevens, the owner of Subsim.com, asking you to PM him because he wants to discuss something with you. Further than that I don't know.

Thanks for noticing, PM me. All missions of this nature are classified, so it would not be safe to divulge the details here...

Yeah. If people found out your plan to become Grand Holy Emperor of Earth, who knows what would happen?
