In the off topic sections, there is a dangerous link to a suspicious website. I have reported it. We must take caution to prevent this from happening again.

I understand. I think we need to change the password thingy. We have had 3 breakthroughs in recent memory.

I often see bing bot and Google bot listed in the online users recently - are they supposed to be here or not?

Those are search bots. It is fine.
Unless you want to completely isolate this forum from the internet you can't avoid their presence.

@Stratego (dev) please ban @King of aof and delete his meaningless messages.

Maybe it is a bad idea to post their name here because they will be able to see it. If I were to report spamming I would put it like this:
Please ban Shark Guy 35
If I put it like this, the spammer can see that he has been mentioned
Please ban @Shark guy 35
Just a suggestion. Also, I haven't broken any rules it was just for demonstration.

@Stratego (dev) can you plead ban Argent for spamming meaningless posts, and continuing to do so after being given several warnings.
Below is a link to his profile.

@Stratego (dev)
Can you give me moderator rights over Age of Fantasy forum?
I want to clear it a bit from Anders guy and his great ideas and handsome looking units.
After i also want to look over all sub-forums in order to archive unrequired, rejected or implemented topics.

Thanks for giving rights.
Now what do i need is sub forum in main aof section:
Name: Archived — Answered
Sub forums:
Archive — Sub factions
Archive — Units and structures
Archive — Technologies, spells and abilities
Archive — Balancing
Archive — Reporting issues
I need this sub forum because i do not want to mix answered topics with implemented ones.
