New forum trivia game!

[Reign]

Hello all, my name is Reign I have been playing on the Siren server for a little over 3 years now.

With the recent developments that resulted in me becoming a poster here I thought I would start out by having a little fun.^^

Now here comes the tricky part.

The first person to post here with the correct answers will recieve 20k gil from me!

Who flew this flag? And from what ship was it flown?

First person to post here with the correct answers will be declared winner!

Re: New forum trivia game!

Is this game gil you are offering people? otherwise, please try to keep the out of game/server discussions in the Off Topics forum.

Re: New forum trivia game!

Because if that is the case.........its Blackbeard. 1716 i believe on the time of his reign?

Ship: Queen Anne's Revenge.

Re: New forum trivia game!

Ding! We have a winner! Absoultely correct down to the date!



Edited: Geez try something fun and get slapped with rules and regulations. Not a very nice way to greet new posters. Only put it in server because, um how can I give a reward to people on a server other than mine?

Guess this isn't the forum for me. Loosen up a bit.

Double Post Edited:
You can deactiviate my account or whatever it is you do too serious here for me.

Reign its cool man. He just wanted to make sure that it wasnt the gil from inside this forum. They too earn gil here based on posts and voting and the such. They have a little fun on the forum. Lets keep the trivia going man!!!

My turn: Merlin, the sorcereer and all knowing mage that was advisor to King Arthur is a fictional character based on what true life hero?

Re: New forum trivia game!

Look, if it is not in-game, server specific, then it belongs in the Off-Topic forum. Since you are offering gil in game for someone that answers your question, then I'll keep the post here.

However, Otovyoto's post would be classified as Off-Topic.

Re: New forum trivia game!

Its no wonder why the Siren server forum is dead. is this how you got your title? Teh Bad Cop?

Re: New forum trivia game!

*sigh*

hate me if you will, but this DOES belong in the off-topics forum now.

Re: New forum trivia game!

WOW man, amazing. I understand you are doing what you think is best. But do you really feel that this needs to be moderated as such??? I would have never even thought of doing that. Is it not ok to have a community within a community?

Maybe its just me, and I need to look at my own personal moderation style. I moderate for an extremly large community board and 3 other forums similar to this one, and it just boggles my mind as to why you would do this......

Well im new and this is how the community runs, if i want to be part of it, i need to uphold the law. Anyone know where reign went? Where are the other Alla immigrants from Siren.

Re: New forum trivia game!

/em points to the exit door...thats where Reign went. I do find it funny that another post on the Siren board asks why it is so dead there :D

[neighbortaru]

Re: New forum trivia game!

Otovyoto, this is the way we run things here and we do it this way to keep the boards clutter free and sane.

Some may not like this style, but others do. Can't please everyone...

Re: New forum trivia game!

Mind your pints and quarts; it originally came from England where the ale was sold in pints and quarts. When a fight would break out the bartenders or barmids would yell a warning to the patrons to "Mind your pints and quarts" ostensibly from flying elbows... and other patrons!

What does GOLF stand for? (btw, no reward other than knowledge wanted or offered in my case.)

Neighbortaru is just doing what moderators do. I imagine he's had his hands full with the influx of people to the site. - - I'm sure it's on the homepage somewhere, but there is probably a sticky with how they like to have the messages split up between the server topics and game topics versus off-game topics; and us wanting to surf just didn't notice it. Depending on how many posts he's had to move, the moderators might consider creating a sticky at the tops of the world forums with what is contained with the message board rules that we've all blithely ignored. I realize that that is a chunk of forum space, but it might save labor-power in the long run... or create a locked target to one rules with several "pointers" for each section. Dunno what the capabilities of the site are atm
