Apolyton/Community becoming OT?? Support Apolyton buy from Amazon

Half the postand threads here have nothing to do with Aployton but are more OT. So Bring back post counts to OT so we can all go spam in OT instead of here.
Not that I spam of course.

The admins wouldnt want people to stop posting as they get paid from their advertising based on the number of hits they get each page... so the PC is all about encouraging more posts... The ban on OT PC is all about creating more discusiion and therefore more hits per page..

Increase Your PM Length

This is the place to discuss site matters, and general topics.

I do admit that since the policy change, I have seen quite a few new names for this forum pop-up, but as long as this kind of topic is posted, people will respond.

I don't think so, far as another OT is concerned.

I thought "Let's be a good boy and register overthere so Markos might start to like me slightly which might result in some good things to me in the future" but there wasn't any option indeed

I hope I earned some 'Markos-likes-me' points anyway, and got a +1 pc by this post. no $0.001 to Markos this time

I'm sure Darknight's point has been made before. The OTers are like a plague of locusts spreading throughout the forum leaving wide swaths of destruction. Only restoring the OT post count can stop this menace.

Tired of ads?

I just registered but when I but in a random birthdate it came up with how about your real birthdate and I tried other random ones and it still didn't work so I was getting freaked and I put in my real one and it worked?? ahhh.

And I too made the mistake of clicking the right banner instead of the left one and got myself in a maze of adds popping up all over the place.

BTW if you see a worble around in that site it's me

Mark,

I will register 4 times with 4 different e-mails and IPs.

All I ask is a 100% PCR.

Then I will also never post in the community forum again.

Sure...
If a Settler behaves badly 95% of readers will put it on Rockie account, but if a King behaves badly we know to ignore him in the future, since a king cann't blame on not knowing the rules.

(OK, how looks at the titles anyway?)

well you would also notice that i didnt goto the OT forums as much either thats because it was all spam there ...

I would gladly sacrifice all my post counts from Off topic threads if you will do the same AH... I know who will lose more

I only come here as the other forums are very quiet at times and dont give me much chance to express my terific opinions...
