I agree. "Thriving" might be more accurate.

maybe you should come up with a new law Neal that if in the brig you can get out earlier by making a fair donation, maybe even keelhauled with a large donation, call them fines, then put them on probation, seems fair! the way things go here sometimes you could make a packet!

You are given second chances before you get keelhauled, by receiving warnings, PMs from moderators or Neal, being asked to play by the rules. Brigtime is such a second chance, a last warning, so to speak. Standards are not standards when they are open to unlimited debate, redefinition, ma favourite: endless relativising, and deal-making. At one point people need to reach that line in the sand that says: until here and not one step further. Offenders are not to negotiate the "law" and by that negotiating the conditions of their "penalty". They get submitted to the "law" and the sanctions in it like anyone else, full stop.

Regarding that pathetic statement that subsim is dying: considering the circumstances of the poster, I think that is not an observation, but qualifies more as wishful thinking.

Too many. The rules are very clear, we don't want people posting casual remarks about how they are are pirating games. We don't want people informing the forum that they use cracks on their LEGAL games because there is no way to know if they are honest people trying to work around a PITA DRM, or they are lying and running a bootleg version of the game.You cannot discuss it here.

It's on the signup agreement, it's on the new user welcome email, it's in the FAQ & Rules, and it's stickied in the Sticky: Note: Read before posting - you could be interested to know we have a few rules here thread here.

WOW HITMAN That was great, aside from your viewpoint as a judge; I am guilty myself of forgetting that this is a private forum, and most of us were welcomed guests at one time. Thanks for the "wake up".

"SubSim is dying"

Probably beats every joke I've posted over the years

Imagine if it closed Jim!

what would we do?

Don't want to think of such horrible things,

my guts churns at the thought!

I'm definitely a Subsim junkie, TBO I think of Subsim as my "other family"!

ReFaN · 03-10-10, 08:34 AM

heh, remember when i was posting on the World of warcraft forums, some people said WoW was dying, well with over 12 million players i cant say i agree.

and i dont think subsim is dying either, alsong as there is Submarines, there will be Subsim, and as long as there is subsim, there will be submarines.

Welcome to the bottom feeder klub.

When I saw this thread, my troll detect-or went off and I don't take troll threads seriously.

Look forward to the next subsim meetin', hopefully all my mates can make it.
