    SWFs are useful, but have vastly too much potential to be horribly obnoxious. Obviously nice, respectable SWF animators like you wouldn't be so evil as to put an SWF on a page that screams out "I LOVE GAY PORN!" at max volume as soon as you open the page, but somebody might. Actually, even if...

    Try going to the thread index and clicking "posts" or "views" at the top of the thread table. It does only work for one forum at a time, though.

    [MOD] Realism:Resurrected

    Realistically, Open Borders shouldn't allow military units in. You should have to have a separate agreement for that.

    ActualQuotes diplomacy text!

    They're just arbitrary greetings, I guess, rather than literal translations of the English. All of them are supposed to come from Mao Zedong. Although on the other hand, referring to China as communist is rather silly if they're using, say, Free Market.

    UN Resolutions with Real Names

    Emancipation means "freeing (of one or more people)". Basically it means that slavery is outlawed. The thing about racism was in reference to the U.S. racial slavery, rather than the practice of slavery generally (which arguably isn't even particularly wrong when it's non-hereditary, but...

    Thanks, and doubtless not many. :D

    Racist links in sigs

    Technically, I'm not even sure the BNP supports that. I think they more or less say that people of different cultures should live in different places because they won't get along well, and assume that people of a given race will mostly be of similar culture, don't they? Something like that...

    My ways are secret. Yeah, I know, I'm such a tease. :D

    Civ4 Realism Mod (Extended Gameplay and tweaks)

    I think Realism Resurrected would be a better idea, unless we want people thinking this is some kind of Christian mod. ;)

    [MOD] *Very* Realistic Religions - Ready!

    My conceptual objections from the other thread still apply, as do my comments on appropriate bonuses for Judaism. Two things that wasn't covered in the other thread: Religious Jews tend to have lots of children. I know many families with six or seven children or more, some with over ten...

    Racist links in sigs

    Strictly speaking, "racism" is the assertion that one race is inherently inferior to another. Some now use it in a looser sense, to refer to any racial discrimination at all, but I suspect that's not what CFC policy intended to mean. The BNP advocates racial separatism, not racial supremacy...

    Including Civ IV Icons as Smilies

    Contrast is a bit poor. Maybe a black or gray border around them? Would that look better?

    "Lurk mоde" will work. Copy and paste (without quotes). True nerds know how to avoid mere mortal censors. ;)

    Civ4 Realism Mod (Extended Gameplay and tweaks)

    If anyone takes over this mod, I would suggest that you rename it or something. I've seen conflicts over mod ownership when someone disappears and then reappears. Although in the case I saw the new owners changed it so thoroughly that there wasn't much question of who had the rights to it...

    The new 'post edit' function rocks!

    Yes, 3.5 rocks (and I only wish the 3.0 board I mod at would upgrade soon, so I can try out the inline moderation). I can't wait for the AJAX features to be expanded in the next major version.
