True statement.

If only back in the day when the moderation team tried to make steps towards improvong this situation some admin wouldnt have simply overruled them and reverted what had been done.
The forum reflects the community. Apparently this is what people here want. You can't fault moderation for that. If you try to force the community to be something it's not, it will move elsewhere.
Be disappointed all you want, but this is what we have to work with. Besides, it's not like you've been the most exemplary of posters either.

Spanky thinks that since this is mainly an Age of Empires 3 forum, all posts belong to this category!
While I would love to flame the living shit out of her pea sized brain, I have chosen to remain tolerant.

I wonder what we'd get if we could choose Bernie Sanders as a politician to the colonial age. "Settlers gather 10% slower and cost 20% more" perhaps?

And less military spending. All for the sake of better educated settlers who enjoy free health care and higher wages. Doesn't sound great when you're trying to win a war..

Start some threads and let’s have discussion. Next time you have an idea to discuss is a great place to start.

tbh I'm happy with ESOC right now, whenever I hop on the ol' chrome browser I take a quick look here first before I go on to do whatever I need to do. But then I find an interesting thread and next thing I know I have wasted 20 minutes of my time scrolling through one of the latest groundbreaking threads

Be disappointed all you want, but this is what we have to work with. Besides, it's not like you've been the most exemplary of posters either.

1) this was not the point I made. I simply pointed out the bit of hypocrycy in n0el's post. It doesn't even seem hypocrite, but simply not genuine to me. Its just a factual statement I made anyways.
2) the notion that a community should just turn into what the most vocal group wants it to turn into seems weird. Imagine a hostel room with ten people. 8 would prefer silence so they could sleep while 2 are talking loudly. Its surely not optimal to allow those two to continue talking loudly. Theres many ways to influence the general behaviour and environment of a forum. Sometimes I feel like ESOC tries to cater to everyone and thus caters to none. Anyways the point that you cant or definitrly shouldnt try to influence a forum seems wrong.
3) out of all people you say Im not an examplary poster.. seems weird. I actually dont flame much, I dont shitpost or troll, I participate in discussions and have created content. If the entire forum was like me I bet you spanky and noel wouldnt be complaining.
