Geeze, don't encourage spam, it runs rampant as it is now.

Avatars are rewards for being community members and participating, not seeing how many times you can post per day.

jdd2007 · June 28, 2002, 01:02

i was just kidding. cmon, dont talk to me about spam. the dik or dia or whatever has about 10 bumps on their thread...

but u are right, as always. goodfella, DONT SPAM, remember,

"Avatars are rewards for being community members and participating, not seeing how many times you can post per day."

jdd2007 · June 28, 2002, 01:15

o, trip, talk about posting a lot per day: u have been here half as long as me, but u have 2X as many posts. 17 posts a day!

wow

*bows*

was this post spam? whoops

Inverse Icarus · June 28, 2002, 01:28

i still manage to maintain 5-6 posts per day even with a 6 month ban on my record

jdd2007 · June 28, 2002, 15:43

what did u get that for? i took a 7 month break for school, and i have only like 1.77 posts per day...

Jon Shafer · June 28, 2002, 15:51

Hey what do you think I'm doing while I'm here, telling Firaxis that they're dumb all of the time?

I spent a long time just watching the forums, not posting much. I've gotten more posts total in the Demo Games than I had before them. It wasn't until them that I broke 1.0 per day.

jdd2007 · July 1, 2002, 13:38

i got most of my early posts in the civilizations section, working on the civ pack, until the game came out.

jdd2007 · July 1, 2002, 15:47

Lok has joined as well

jdd2007 · July 6, 2002, 01:00

IceElement has joined. see, we are growing

I am now proud to call myself a Hawk Party member

The number of members in the Hawk Party is indeed growing, but, whilst reading the other threads in this forum, I realise that their voice is not being heard and maximised to its full potential.

As I outlined in the other thread (link below) policies and the like need to be formed, so that members can vote on turn- to- turn decisions.

Whilst I am not in favour of telling Hawk members how to vote, it would be interesting to know the stance of Hawk Party members and candidates before voting.
For example, I am aware that the Hawk Party is in favour of the destruction of the weak French empire; but what are its opinions on science research, or empire expansion?

Finally, (apologies for rambling on my first thread [!]) who are the candidates up for election? IMO, jdd2007 and several other members have contributed far more seriously to the Hawk Party cause, wheras the founder *struggles to remember name* furbster, has made very little. No disrespect intended to our righteous leader, but a little more contribution would be seriously
appreciated on my behalf.

Don't worry about him IE. People drop off all the time. RL comes into play. Just concern yourself with what you are doing and you will be fine here in your party, in the game, and in Poly in general.

IceElement · July 6, 2002, 03:34

methinx that 'he' is in fact a 'she'... but don't quote me on that.

all i meant by that was that for somebody to create a political party, one would have thought they would have planned for the future.

i guess im just too critical

My bad.

IceElement · July 6, 2002, 03:58

I guess that was pretty much called for.

*Gotta think of something else to write to avoid spamming....*

Sooooooo...... americans or french to die? Frogs gets my vote, and I've heard some grumbles from other Hawk members... somebody should do a thread on it.

Thread on war with either France or America

OK... guess they already have.
Dum di Dum.

Check out my "Apolytonian Government" thread that's at the top, then scroll to the bottom of the page.

CapitanGarlic · July 6, 2002, 19:54

Thank you; perhaps I'll look for an answer next time.

jdd2007 · July 7, 2002, 11:04

i think we should have a few positions in the hawk party. any ideas?

LordImpact · July 7, 2002, 12:51

You mean like a chairman, secretary, etc.?

--Impact

jdd2007 · July 7, 2002, 13:46

yah, like that

Duddha · July 7, 2002, 13:51

You want to have elections for Hawk party Chairman?

jdd2007 · July 7, 2002, 13:54

yes, duddha. what other position(s) should we have?

o, are you going to run?

Duddha · July 7, 2002, 14:02

Chairman is all we need, I think. The Chairman would do things like keep an up to date list of party members and organize general stuff like sending out newsletters. Help keep the party going. I wont run for something like that until I get back from UCI but I think you, jdd2007, have already demonstrated that you would make a great Chairman. If we want to have an election I suggest that we don't make a Poll thread where anyone could vote. We've got somewhere around 14 members, it wouldn't be that hard to just have each one make a post for who they want in an election thread.
