I suggest that everone else simply ignore him and do the same..let the admins and moderators deal with him.

You've obviously never seen The last of the Mohicans..1992.

Another member made that same Magua post to me in another thread and I at least saw the humor in it. And that person is still posting.

WOW, It would be very sad if a precedent is set that those who disagree with certain members are labeled as "Instigators". I hope the North Korean Secret police do not come and get me.

My posts are very tame compared to what I have read others say on here....very tame

That's exactly what one should do with a person they feel is trolling--ignore him, don't feed the trolls. If no one replies to the post, then it sinks. If someone replies, then it lives. If the same person bumps/replies to his own post, then the admin or mods can ask him to stop.

Hi all.

My first post here. Just my 2 cents on the subject.

I just started modding and they make this great game even greater, thanks to all the kind people who do it. I use NYGM Tonnage (and yes it's HARD, which is what I wanted because I was tired of beating the real aces in tonnage) and they removed all contact symbols on map. I got a radio intercept of Task Force and went to Grid on map, there was no symbol but if you put the mouse cursor over the contact that selection circle would appear. I went into Data/Menu/Gui/Units folder an checked the tga file UnitWShip and it was blank. I reinstalled these files(UnitMShip,UnitWShip.tga) from the All Grey Contacts Mod I was using minus the ContLine.tga from Data/Menu/Gui. The fantastic result (in my eyes at least

) was the grey diamond symbol appearing indicating the position of the task Force minus the trailing line indicating the exact course. To make my long story short, I plotted an intercept course south (the contact said TF was going N)... and missed it

. In short it was not going exactly N and passed me slightly to the east. This happens with single merchants and convoys as well with that ContLine.tga blanked out. No more trails for contacts, so there is a chance to miss them on your intercept. I think this is a good balance between having contacts and not having them.

Again, just my 2 cents.

Magua,

I'm with a feeling...a feeling that you are the Alter Ego of one guy that I'm not seeing in this forum since, perhaps, the last 2 or 3 weeks. Don't mind, just my thoughts.

Anyway, nice to meet you. Some people really adds to the game community. Some adds good things, others...well, hum...you know that!

Cheers mate!

Rubini.

Magua is dead...

Magua will put the Single Ship Contact Under the Knife. When the SIngle Ship Contact is Dead Magua Will eat its Heart.

Before Killing the Single Ship Contact Magua will kill the Contact's Children and he will know that his seed dies forever!!
