Just Some Specifics...

OK...


I'm going to use an example that has been altered and the names changed...


Region "A" had a long standing feud with Region "B" before I arrived here. I joined Region "A", subsequently I met "Mr. Moustache" from Region "B" who sent me a telegramme littered with expletives directed at me for aiding my country in a regional takeover (which was entirely by the book). I was a gentleman and killed "Mr. Moustache" with kindness. He was deleted shortly thereafter for rule-breaking not related to our encounter but not before trying to bargain with me to turn on my UN delegate so he and his friends in Region "B" could get even. He then returns with a similar name...we'll say "Col. Moustache" and begins to follow me to every prospective region I go to warning them of a takeover and endorsing one of their UN members while planting his nation in that region. Afterwards he telegrammes me a message thanking me for giving him the opportunity to do this so he can show other nations what a fool he makes of my region and myself in order to get them to join his region. I have telegrammed the Mods but received no reply...what should I do now?

post in the mod section of the forum, you'll get their attention if they're on.

OK...would it be best to wait a certain length of time for a response first though? Does it normally take them a bit to respond? Because I don't want to harass them or become a pain...I'm just tired of not being able to enjoy the game because someone has a vendetta and wants to act like a child.

Save the telegrams, and ignore the sender.

I think we're a few days behind on the Centre, but we'll get to it.

give the mods a day or two tops. If they don't repsond by then, you need to be a little more annoying. But, the mods are usually very quick to respond to things like these. The lack of response right now may be due to the fact that there could be no mods online right now.

Well, there you have it. A mod got around to it.

Although I don't have any help for you (I’m not all that good with region stuff, so I’m not even going to try to help. x_x), I can say that the mods don't like to be telegrammed. They prefer us to use the forums, or The Getting Help Page if it's a game problem. Many delete the telegram without reading it.

Which would explain why you never got an answer from them.

Yeah that's what I used the form on the page...*chuckle* I'm still getting used to the terms of the telegramme and personal message and the like. I do have the telegrammes saved however and I appreciate everyone's help with this. I am indebted to you all. Thanks again.

So now I've stopped Alpineholm twice from invading peaceful regions and I'm to get a warning for doing this? I am now in the act of stopping a 3rd invasion by Alpineholm and the nation from there complains that I'm stopping him from doing it?

Lets remember something. This is the region that caused the problems in Capitalism last week. We are the ones that stopped them. We are the good guys here so don't get pulled in by his diplomatic ways here.

This comes down to one thing and one thing only. They are mad because with us here they can't invade another region. We are there to stop them at every turn because they invaded a region under our protection and were warned ahead of time not too. Now they are asking Mods to step in and tell us not to stop them from invading?

Dude... harassing telegrams aren't allowed. Cope.

Hack, I just sent you a letter as well.
02-03-2004, 06:46
No Problem, I'll put him on ignore along with the others in his region as I recieve 10 letters for each 1 I send.

Eh.

Thank you Hack. And for the record, I bear noone ill will, let's resolve to ignore and be ignored. Thank you again to all who helped in this problem.
