That young man had just arrived at the forum, if you look closely there are older profiles whose authors are very old and they were also recurrent. In art you see that there was a greater variety of people and now it is a dead place.

Then there should be unit actors pushing the ram, just like how the siege catapults and ballista have people manning them. At the moment rams look like their moving of their own accord, they could at east have two people in them to make them look better. Maybe I should talk to @wowgetoffyourcellphone about this.

I don't think rams are OP. Once players figure out that swords and melee destroy them, they are pretty harmless. Right now because of the strength of capturing, you oftentimes don't need siege at all. I don't see the point of requiring them to be garrisoned to move, as one could argue the 3 population cost is three dudes that come "pre-installed" inside the ram to push it.   

They should cost 0 pop, only wood and maybe metal. Any population cost would come from soldiers garrisoned inside. (This would probably make rams garrisonable on ships without taking up space though).

Yeah, Decide4U a few weeks ago. I'm relatively new to the forum as well, so I don't know of any others.
