Regardless of anything that happened in the past at the end of the day, the majority of tunngle players wanted a place for all members, and dislike the board so wont use it.
Call it what you like, but it what the players of today would like and that is what penultimately matters.
It was decided at the beginning that with the new site that similar rules to here would be taken, admins are there to prevent spam and help keep the site up to date etc The only way a player is going to get kicked is if he spams (or known to in the case of amaced) or other similar things such as racism and sexism,
Other than these fundamental things free speech is more than welcome and certainly no one is going to get kicked because they disliked someone.

You are free to do whatever you like. Just call it what it is - a rip off.

I dont like the other forum so much because there are so many stupid rules and you have admins watching your every move... At least here you could do whatever you wanted. The only thing that I dislike on this forum is never being able to chat about something you care about like clan wars, new clans or latest about tunngle without amaced or another person who doesnt play the game just butting in to cause spam, unrest and arguments. However, I find the new forum kind of dead and not being able to double post when talking about different subjects on the same thread or being able to use the colour red is just stupid and annoying for me Since this forum, BM said it, is kinda outlaw-territory, I'd say you're either not mature enough or suffering from a weirdo-disease [sorry for not being sober at this point] . I don't know if you're somewhat far from reality, but may you, right here, explain the "fun-taking" rules the new boasr has made? Secondly, I have NO clue why would have to doublepost, if you want to switch teh subject or whatever you can EDIT AND ANNOUNCE your turn-around. What's the matter? Adming controlling every step? You're paranoid. Same goes for the colour red. Do you have a certain fetish? I mean calling a board dead because YOU, as single person, cannot doublepost or use the colour red seems like the most humble, and if I may add that, retarded reason to dislike a forum. Plus if you'd know the admins there any bit, you'd know they aren't the so much of a dictatorship. Even if I'm not into the community and the game anymore, I'm quite irritated by the ongoing effeminacy and retardation of it. It's not meant as an insult, Royalty. I welcome any criticism aslong as it's making sense.

Critisim can be useful occaisionally Im just saying I dont like admins creating so many rules and restrictions because on all the other forums (except for empire) you dont have any except for the no racism or abuse.

Yea, I understood you very well, but I can't see any serious problems with the rules these admins have made. Usually icba to repeat myself, but what's the point of using the red-colour or doube-posts. Maybe it's not necessary to write that rule down, but I personally dislike double-posting aswell, because therE's no reason at all to doubepost.
Btw, there are 1 billion other colours you can use, you won't die ^^

I agree with many rules. I know it seems like no rules would result in chaos. That's what I believed (and I guess eventually it did). However, I thought it was really cool to see the community establish and uphold unwritten rules together and keep order for as long as they did.
For example, there didn't need to be a rule against racism because no one tolerated it when it did occur (and it did - iruleworld). The community just came together, defended their own, condemned the offender, and then moved on and didn't give them anymore undue attention.
But to maintain a rule-free forum, people had to care enough. If people make good posts it creates a culture, and even without official rules people generally know how to behave. Conflicts were allowed to be resolved organically (though not always maturely, at least it let everyone be themselves). And there was no need for admins/mods to wield power - that power was shared among every member (i.e. each member had a personal responsibility for their part).
Now that I think about it, the fact that this forum was able to work the way it did is a credit to the members that we used to have. It was a good community.

Only 14, some of which dont work on my pc for some reason, and some dont look effective enough either. Besides, never on any forum have i seen the admin post in red... It may be a valid rule but I still like to have freedom and like BM said, let the forum community establish itself rather than the admin..... Here we havent seen the admin post since a year ago and there are no restrictions. Back to the double post. For example, in one post i may be talking about something relating to amaceds point which is about something that wouldnt fit in in this post. Think of it as sending emails. You wouldnt put two things on a completely different topic in the same one that have no relation to each other.

I don't mind double posting when that's the case, but you know the way you do it is just spam sometimes.

Plus as said before, you could modify your post and mark your new intention/purpose/message. I don't any too big problem in doing that.
