    i.e. four new civilizations and six alpha releases in just a year; and it didn't stop there. Given that the time between releases is now approaching two years, I suppose adding one civ per alpha would be doable; 0 A.D.'s standards have presumably gone up, though.

    Those weren't new civilizations though, just existing ones polished and released to the public. Not saying that there wasn't any work done on them, just that most of the work had already been done. Not sure that has to have all that much relevance to decisions made now as release cycles are longer, but in either case I would suggest not judging what to do based on past process, but on what end result is wanted.

  2. If one wants to read that sentence carefully it can be understood as just be related to work posted in the art development forum. And the icons can be understood as something other than work in this context (as they were not posted as work done for the project, but as references of what you are capable of doing). Either way, the text is mostly so we have some way to show that people are responsible for the things they post to abide by the license.

  3. It will probably be easier for people to give you the answers you are looking for if you describe a bit more what it is you are trying to get out of it/for what purpose. Do you want to create a mod? Do you want to understand what the classes means in gameplay? Etc. Otherwise there is a bit of a risk that you will get answers which are correct, but which doesn't help you in the specific area you are interested in.

    @sphyrth im enjoying it too man :)  @pAris wow man, did you have to google that big word? proud of you, my god. 

    I could ban you immediately after that, but I don't think that would be constructive. I do have to ask you whether you actually want to participate in these forums, or for that matter play 0 A.D.? Because you give the impression of someone who doesn't really want to be here, but just be somewhere where you can get some attention. I'll gladly give you attention if you give me a good reason to, but right now it seems like all you want to do is take away attention and energy from people who are here because they want to be here, and because they want to see 0 A.D. finished and improved. And if that is all you are here for please leave.

  5. I don't recall deleting a thread, but there are other moderators who might have done that. In either case, that's another issue, and honestly we would probably benefit from being harsher - the forums have had quite a lot of annoying and rude posts lately.

    so when someone called me "retard" in the forum and I called u for taking actiuon u did nothing  but delete my whole thread?>

    If you have a separate issue with me or moderators in general that belongs in another thread. In this thread I deleted your post because you were basically calling spyrth stupid, without having any arguments other than "go read my first post".

    so my comment got deleted. Intersting. FOr hwat ?:???

    For being rude and at the same time not having a real point, so there was no reason to excuse bad behaviour. It would be good if you used your original account for that matter.

    Maybe this game is different, but any other rts it's not. 

    I have to admit that I personally haven't tested it, but as far as I know and have understood it from others there is a difference. If you thought there wasn't, fine, one can't know everything, but to strongly suggest that others are wrong when you don't know for sure... Maybe worth slowing down a few seconds and think about the fact that you might be wrong, will make these conversations a lot nicer both for you and everyone else.

    I mean if you are host...you should be able to do as please in your OWN game...so I can definitely see your frustration buddy! 

    If you are playing a rated game it has an effect on other people/related to other matches, and then you can't just do as you please. Personally I'm not sure rated games should allow for settings to be changed at all if you were to take it completely serious. But that's probably taking things too far. Applying some rules to rated games is needed though, otherwise it doesn't make sense at all.

    THE BUN IS UNFAIR!!!@!!!
    EWHAT ELSE IN HAVE TO SAUYH!:!:!:!:!: 
    I SHOIULKD HAVE BE BANNE DIN THE FIRST PLACE!

    Possibly, but just an idea: maybe politely explaining your point and then patiently wait for a proper reply would be more effective in giving you the result you want than screaming incoherent, misspelled, and generally unrelated things ;) And demanding things to be done quickly rarely works.

    In either case, maybe explain why you were playing a rated game in the first place? What was your motivation?

    BUt hwat if my ban is unjustified? have u ever thought baout that? @feneur

    So I just have to wait 24h +  to get response?

    ANd maube wait days to then get unbanned when it was all not mny fault?

    What if you could slow down just a little bit? Have you thought about that?

    So you just have to think/do things a tiny bit slower and you would get a better result.

    And then you wouldn't have to wait days to get unbanned, since you would have had explained what you expected of your opponent (or for that matter had taken the time to make sure the settings were not set for a ranked game so you could implement the rules you wanted). And according to user1 elexis asked you for an explanation in the lobby already, but perhaps you read through things so fast that you missed that?

    I know that I'm a bit extreme, but seeing the amount of typos in your replies here does suggest to me that it might indeed be beneficial for you to slow down a bit ;) (Especially since a couple of days really isn't that long. I guess you are young and have plenty of free time, but at least for me there can easily go days without me having time to play games at all, so it's a matter of perspective as well ;) )

    But what I find most unfair is that this admin elexis is still ignoring this discussion after having me banned for already an hour and fully knowing that this conversation  is going on and that it's his call to react and solve 

    Please do realize that people do have a life outside of 0 A.D. and might not always be able to reply immediately. You might complain after 24 hours, fine, but after 1 hour? That's just not realistic to expect.

  13. That's one way to look at it, I prefer to look at it as an easy way to add to the conversation without having to clutter up the forum with a lot of posts with three or four letter words (and I'm not talking about bad words here, just things like yes, ok, lol).

    strict moderator. can't join even after over 50 hour.

     

    You can just wait until the ban is over, if it feels like you're waiting a long time, maybe remember that next time you are about to do something that might be questionable ;) Take a few seconds to think about whether or not to do something, might be annoying to spend a little while thinking about something, but seconds or even minutes is nothing compared to hours :P

  15. Not sure what I can say, but in either case I've not edited the post, nor has Nescio. I'm certainly not wanting you to feel disappointed, but I'm not going to lie just to make you feel better.

    I hope you will want to keep being a part of the community around 0 A.D. and contribute to it for many years to come, but then you need to be mature enough to admit that things might be different to how you want them to be. There aren't 100s of reviewers for every patch submitted, there isn't the time to write an essay on each and every suggestion or discussion that's posted on the forums, etc etc. The team members are at least as disappointed with that as anyone else, but that doesn't change things. If you have constructive suggestions for how to improve things feel free to offer them, but just complaining about something that then turns out to be the opposite of what you claim doesn't help anyone.

  16. A question: Will people not just remember who you are and play/not play with you regardless of which account you play with in this kind of scenario? It might take a match or two before people realize, but would that really make enough of a difference to make it worthwhile. It also seems unfair towards the people who might want either a more difficult or an easier match if someone joins who are of unknown skill level and then turns out to either let his team down or crush the other players.
