In theory we could do huge player numbers far over 500 players per server...  As such we will surely keep our promise to deliver you the 500 players per server.

We will probably go (far) over it, but that's for later.

We'll just have to wait. I think with recent events that the mods are full of our shit.

Weaver has a tendency to create threads that end in a shitstorm. I dare even call it a diarrheacyclon.
He likes to watch heated discussions.

Dammit, the best thread on this forum is gone...

It's what they've always done: trying to protect kindergartners from meanieheads who would hurt their feelings.

Did anything precede the decision to move the thread? I wasn't here to see, but how bad did the 'discussion' (Read as: Perpetual Argument) get?

If they feel like it can insult other viewers, they should mark it down as mature content. (not even such a bad idea).

It was the general insulting of other users and posting negative generalisations about other religions and politcal views.
Though they seem to have forgotten that generalisation is pretty common and almost natural (psychologically-wise), and that most of the time (I know it sounds ironic, but personal experience speaking, I also said most of the time, not all the time) generalisation comes from being misinformed, underinformed or dogmatical thinking.
Probably one of the very few old-timers here who hasn't been a regimental leader.

If you take offense to an insult then you are living up to meaning of the insult.

I agree with Riddlez. It should be marked as mature content. Since apparently, not everyone is able to withstand arguments and notions that go against their beliefs, so they flock to report opinions that they don't like, which gives moderators the impression that the thread is out of control when actually it is only some people who use the Report tool as a weapon when they have no compelling arguments to use against their ideological counterparts. It is not a problem of the thread itself, but rather one of the people who even though most of them hold the best intentions when posting their opinion, they end up not being mature enough to handle a civil discussion. Nevertheless, I still hold the conviction that intellectual conversations can be handled in the off topic section, basing myself in many good opinions I've seen there.

Am i the only one worried about being Right-winged is now not allowed, yet the Left-winged can do whatever they want?

Or did they mean just no right winged opinions linked to Nazi Germany?
