to my informing him that he had broken the rules

No I didn't. Go find that rule and quote it.

Perhaps a 'report post' function is in order.

Given I've been hanging around on the forums and IRC for long enough to know exactly why and when that got put up, etc etc, I know the rules.

Try reading it yourself. It says nothing about calling out people making stupid comments, just newbies. I leave them alone unless they hit one of the evil 3.

You sir are being unconstructive, and failing at that! next please.

Jeff, is this really an issue with you that you had to go through all of that to get the dev's attention, just so they could tell you what you should have already known. I said it elsewhere and I will say it again, whether I am right or not, people who police others when they themselves have no authority to do so need to re-evaluate their sad little lives and reflect on just what it was that caused them to be treated in such a "flaming" way. If you can't handle sarcasm, this isn't the place for you. And if you think starting with people who have more time invested in this game, more knowledge on inherent issues/strategies, and just more knowledge than you in general then you'd better go buy one of those "dummies" books. Maybe they make a "learning to pick your fights for dummies" title. So how about that?  

I think GCII should stand up quite well against any of those on that list. It has kept me playing daily longer than any other game I've ever had(Previous long was probably Warcraft II way back when). It should mop up in dedicated TBS categories IMO.

Don't make me post this 100 times, please. I'm looking at you Marc.

Shut the hell up.

Do you not realise I don't give a flying shit what you think? Seriously, you're beginning to piss me off now. Go bother someone else. You have no right to tell me what to do, so kindly don't try.

Ohnoes. I upset teh fraktard.

Also emphsis on this:Be constructive, and don't use personal attacks.

Got it yet?
