What I dont really get is that I am seeing much more explicit language littered through a myriad of threads. You're monitoring me closely, which I also get. But Robert, some of your most resent edits are a tad confusing when looking at what is directed towards me by Fandom User 120.20.181.62. Thats also fine, as 120.20.181.62 ostensibly wants to get any reaction from me. Likely hoping the ban-hammer will fall on me. Just to play devil's advocate here. The admins are volunteers. They do not have the time to monitor every post that gets put up here and they rely on the community to be a) civil and b) flag things for them that cross the line. And of the users willing to flag issues, there may not be enough of them to catch everything illicit. I have seen things in posts from a few years ago that slipped through the cracks. This is a very busy site, so without a professional staff of moderators, that is to be expected.

Also, you have kind of painted a hulking green Bullseye on your back with regards to admin attention, and it isn't positive. I try to change the course of your post by asking about what you learned about the underlying physics of the game that could benefit all of the user's here.

What we all want the admins to have time to focus on is news on new content and turning that data into helpful and usable data as quickly as possible. We also want them to have time to work behind the scenes to improve usability, create new tables, etc. Having to put out flame wars takes away from the limited time they have to produce that value added content.

Michael likely will not ban you or let you be banned, as his philosophy seems to be that will only provoke an even worse iteration of the user. If you can circumvent FMEA, how easy would it be for you to get around a IP ban here?

However that doesn't mean you should take advantage of that. You have made your point, and for the people that pay attention to the forums, they get your position. However, as far as we know, none of the regular contributors are FM or EA employees, so I am not sure what more you hope to accomplish carrying out this crusade here. Most of the users on this site are oddly middle aged. They are in their 40's, 50's and 60's. Maybe they have families. Maybe they have some tech skills, but they aren't the target demographic to form an Anonymous Collective to take down FM/EA. They bitch and moan because that is what old people do, but we don't have enough fire to want to burn the house down.

So you can continue tilting at windmills or you can let this topic drop. It is up to you though. You could very easily click Unfollow on your post and you will stop getting notifications about it. Let people post what they will and ignore them. You would probably have a good amount to offer to the site if you went back to being Bruce Banner.
