News From Yesterday

Recommended Posts

I was looking for some way to get more involved and contribute something to the community when I ran across [url="http://forums.cybernations.net/index.php?showtopic=90318"]this thread[/url] and noticed it hasn't been updated since March or so. It seemed like such a great idea that got abandoned I figured I would try to get something similar back up and running. I have changed the format a little for easier navigation (imo). If you have any questions or concerns feel free to PM me here. Also anyone interested in helping me with this program please contact me asap!

Help me understand why we would c/p the entire header for every reply? Seems like that will make it hell for you to add new content, because you will have to delete the title info from your OP to update it.
[/quote]

So your suggestion would be to just put

[code][center][size="4"][b]Alliance Announcements[/b][/size]
[size="3"]

[/size]

[size="4"][b]World Affairs[/b][/size]
[size="3"]

[/size]
[/code]


Anyways, the reason I had them c/p the whole thing is because at first they are just making a standard reply and so it would make sense to have the header in each "update" reply for easy skimming through I guess. Then all they do is c/p the code to me and I swap it out in the OP

(It's my understanding that) you want people to PM you the links to add, so I would have them format the link as you want it (so you don't have to screw around with creating links and writing descriptions, the benefit of crowd-sourcing) and then to simple say which category it belongs in. Thus, provide the code for links, and request the category be specified. Then, all you have to do is c/p their link code into your report, rather than trying to merge your existing report with the new stuff that comes in.

What?

No one reads the forums regularly unless there's a huge war going on or about to start?
Oh... So what's this for again?

You found it, apparently?

Anyways I think this is a good idea, if it takes off and gets pinned then I'll use it all the time. I mostly lurk these boards anyways and an index topic such as this would be helpful to people like me who don't come around these parts often and wants to know whats current.

His issue wasn't the thread at all. It was because I posted it. He's had issues with me since I joined RIA. So, I've left.

Let me put it this way, what I said was nowhere near as bad as what others would say eventually. RIA's actually fairly nice of an alliance. I was doing you a favor.
But if you're going to be so sensitive about it than fine, I'm sorry for my hazing toward you when you joined us, I got IRC hazed when I joined, so it seemed fair to do it to you, Freshman Friday tradition.

You've already been asked to stop once. You obviously ignored that. I didn't mind it on our personal forums, but all I'm trying to do is find some way I can contribute around here and some way I can get my name out there. Did you have to support me fully? No. Did you have to come in here and try to make your alliance mate look stupid? Nope. So please, leave me alone.

If you wanted to contribute, you should have started in one of RIA's academy's for War or Diplomacy. And by the way, you don't want your name known by everyone if you're in RIA, you're better off messing around on the RIA forums.
And if anything, you should be glad it was me that made you look stupid and not someone in MK, NoR, NPO, or any other powerful alliance on Planet Bob, because they'd have been a lot meaner than one sarcastic comment. And for the record, I did stop, because the guy who controls who I sell tech to in RIA told me to. I don't do one thing here that could hurt RIA, I'm a patriot.
You know what though, go ahead and run to another alliance, you probably won't get treated any better, especially considering you're a girl on the internet. I really don't care what you do, I have a country to run, and I fired my maid so I'm required to clean my own office.

whining.

If you seriously do not stop posting I am going to sell off my infra and declare war on you, and nuke you every single day for the entire war, I'm not going to repeat myself again.

I really don't care, because if you did, I'd still come out a winner because you'd have crossed an uncrossable line.
[/quote]
Do you seriously think you'd be seen as the better person here? I don't mind having to leave the alliance I love in order to prove to you running your mouth where it doesn't belong has its consequences.

If Avalanche screwing me over didn't cause me to be a choir boy, I don't think you have a shot. I think you're taking things to seriously. So I'll let you ramble to nothing now.
[/quote]
This has nothing to do with me taking things seriously, this has to do with you not respecting anyone but your own stupidity.
