    I know! Only two have ever gotten away with that, and it was because they asked for it. Bashing them? Rubbing it in their faces? Dunno, I think he woulda' just gotten an infraction before.

    And besides... Why would you bash Foxyb? 'Course, she doesn't mod the forums he was in, so he prob doesn't know her.
    I have heard flaming shots are fun. Anyone want to try?

    Did I miss anything? I didn't see anyone bashing on mods, the comment about communism was probably a bad way to try to show a similarity between eastern block U.S.S.R. and these forums. Which, sorry, no way are they even close to being the same. You don't see people vanishing without explanation, and you get to mostly say what you want.

    There are a set of rules, as long as you follow them, you are golden.

    If you come to a fork in the road, take it!

    That's Anarchy. Anarchy has no government. A communism is a highly sophisticated government ideal, the original concepts of which have become skewed.

    Stalin was a dictator, by the way, and a Marxist. If I recall rightly, a communism is supposed to be a group of ruling individuals, not one.

    So, in conclusion, Nerevar wanted to call it "A dictatorship."

    Also, the OP is not me, and I predict line through name.

    The original idea of the Off-Topic forum, was to provide a location for people to come and discuss things not related to Evony. So, say you wanted to show everyone how well you did on a test, you could talk about that. If you have problems with your girlfriend and you want advice, (or boyfriend) you could post about that. The idea, was that you could open up topics of discussion, where they could pretty much be about anything. Except polotics and a few other things.

    I did. But the comments following it ruined it. Blame that other guy, and Abakker for ruining your joke with semantics.

    You are incorrect, there is no government in communism, nor is there any one ruling. All you would have to do is read a little bit up on communism to verify this.

    Anarchy and Communism are remarkably similar. However in communism there is no currency, no "money". People work for the common good of everyone, hence communism. In anarchy, there just isn't any order, any government. People fend for themselves.
