    Default FAILED: Gogoas for Civitates (Patron: Farnan)

This is a very rare chance for me to have an intelligent conversation (or debate) with other people from all over the world. Of course I don't stray too far from the total war community forums as I do regularly play total war games (maybe a little too much for my own good ) and am interested in developments in the game and it's respective mods. I come everyday and will be contributing for as long as the total war center has it's forum.

    NOTE : His second user note is apparently a positive one. His 1st was perhaps a litle over zealous of the mod in question.

    Unexpired usernote, lot's of oneliners, I'm going to vote no on this one. He does have potential though, he just needs to put a stop on the oneliners.

    Torment,

    You can't really rule this one out on the basis of an unexpired user note, since it's a caution and cautions don't expire. Besides, I think it's very overzealous to give even a caution for censor "bypass" (when apparently he was censoring himself).

    Well, it's been within two months, so that counts as a 'fresh' one IMO. Anyway, my no vote is more based on his posts, which I don't find terribly impressive. The caution just mildly adds up to that. I would probably have voted no, even without the caution.

    Hey all you Praetors and your sexy badges!

    Wait, we can give positive usernotes?

    I'm going to have to say no on this one for similar reasons of Torment. Too many short posts basically but all he needs to do is start posting better ones!

    I personally think that he's a long-time contributing member and that this outcome is a bit unfair. Yes, his posts are brief, but they're constructive, regularly helpful. I've voted yes, and would urge some of my fellow staff to reconsider. Brief posts aren't bad, not when there are 794 and none of them spam.

    Sim has a point, but still I'm not fully convinced. I've changed my vote to abstain.

    it'd be nice if he put more into his posts rather than lots of short posts, abstain
