    I don't think this affects your ability to moderate off-topic in the slightest, but I do think for better or worse it affects how you respond to the suggestions forum. Not a criticism, just an observation.
    But here's the thing, I know what gameplay is like without having played the game within the last month. Just because I wasn't a good player doesn't mean I never played seriously. I just didn't play well, but I was serious. I have played since that initial long run, and am well aware of the what Evony is like these days. All of the moderators on the forum team understand the sheer amount of botters and what that shift means to coiners, non-coiners, bothers and non-botters. Not only that, but i've (along with the other mods) had so many discussions with players coming to make suggestions via PM that I probably know more than you about problems, bugs, the works.


    Plus, I didn't play two years ago. I've played recently as far as retired mods go.

    I understand the point you're trying to make though. I couldn't be a general discussion moderator, because I don't currently play, and I would be useless for the most part in Help and Questions, etc.
    But Game Development is different.

    The wheels of survival are greased more readily by easy lies than hard truths.
