IIRC, it's basically a Genghis Khan quote, but slightly adapted for Conan.

You clearly have an inflated idea of how clever and creative the Poly denizens are, and no perspective on the fact that an all-Poly quote feature would be amusing to no more than a few dozen posters.

Short quotes are best. Even then they go by as a blurr due to the general speed up since the ads disappeared.

Markos: Civ quotes would be considered part of Poly quotes. If the civ quote in question is even halfway interesting, I can guarantee that someone has posted it on the site too.

How about corrupted Civ quotes? Like:

or

Sava is for the weak!

or

Hail to the Ming, baby!

This isn't a civilization site, Mark, it's an off topic forum with some smaller fora about stupid games.

Plus many of those that ended up in the OT were drawn to the site through interest in one of the silly games.

Don't we create the content in an OT forum? It is only as empty as our imaginations.

On the contrary, I created interesting content in the OT in the form of drunk threads.
Alas, Ming didn't appreciate them.

Well, a little trip to the OT, and I found a few good quotes.


Cats and dogs are like mom and apple pie. Don't mess with the pets. Most people prefer them to other people.

-- Barbara O'Connor, director of the Institute for the Study of Politics and Media at California State University, Sacramento.


Maybe you can live on the moon in next century.

-- Cookie Fortune


Oh, you literal Westerners who don't have a clue about the Yin and Yang of things. Obviously it's some metaphor about how the Mandate of Heaven will make your oxen healthy for the next plowing or something like that.

-- JohnT in response to the above fortune


Sun Tzu says: Don't eat chinese food. They're starving quite well on their own, without you westerners eating it too.

i just realised that i ordered chinese two days ago and didnt get a cookie!

The problem with Poly quotes is that DLs, er n00bs, wouldn't get a lot of them. Is it possible to have them only display in certain fora?

The only way n00bs will get to understand our "culture" is by being exposed to it. Many of the quotes stand on their own merit too.

How about along with quotes we add useful information about certain posters, so as not to confuse the newbs?

The quote I just got said:

Is there a way to look up the quotes in the database? I usually can't read more than a sentence before the page advances and the back button often shows a 'page expired' message.

Or else, could you type them in slower, becuz I do'nt reed that fast...
