Why does my Flag Keep Disappearing?
For some strange reason, my flag has been zeroed twice... and I think both times happened after my cookies got deleted by the site or something?
does this happen to others? or does it just happen to norwegian-flag bearers?
Just wondering?

No one should have to endure the Norwegian flag. It's a feature!

That might be it- since I was amde a mod... but it only seems to have occurred about 2 days ago- and I was made a mod about 2 weeks ago? Perhaps I just didn't notice?
I think you are probably right TKG...
since I can't remember the circumstances surrounding the 1st zeroing. and the second seems to fit that formula... thanks!

You probably have mod powers in all forums and just don't realize it.
Try to ban someone.....like oh, I don't know Skanky?
 ACK!

I did actually have my "flag" removed.
But I kind of know why.

Even better ban Tuberski, and leave a trail that points to the obvious culprit, Skanky.

Trip- did it happen after you became mod of the Civ III- Apolyton Team Demogame?
In which case the theory might be correct!

TKG is right. When people get banned the flag goes. When I became CtPDG mod, I lost my flag. Same with MWIA, IIRC.

Just happened to me for the first time today, and yes, I just returned from a week-long trip to a well known vacation spot with a name similar to Acapulco.
So yes, I would say either the restriction or the unrestriction process (or both) nulls your flag.
