How could I forget Viva La Dirt League?!
What would you suggest instead?
You're very welcome!
Absolutely!
I want to foster a community that values open, honest and civilised discussion. Civilised being the key word.
I do not want to see extreme views espoused here, on any axis of the political spectrum. "Treat others as they would like to be treated" is a slightly different wording of The Golden Rule that I like to live my life by, and that going to be my philosophy of moderation.
Disagreement is possible without resorting to personal attacks, and just because someone has a different point of view on a topic does not make them objectively wrong, or a bad person. Remember that anonymous user is a fully formed person with their own life, experiences, hopes, dreams and fears. They put their underwear on one leg at a time, just like you do.
I have no intention of allowing members of this community to spread misinformation or falsehoods.
I have no intention of allowing hate speech of any kind.
Ultimately, my ability to moderate relies on our users making use of the report function. I am only one person and I'm not always on here. So if you see something you don't like, please bring it to the attention of myself or Dave and we will deal with it in an impartial manner.
Remarkable! Abel Tasman really is a jewel of a place.
I doubt I'll go back. The internet is vast, and with places like Reddit, Instagram, Twitter, etc, it's easy to get stuck in that looping cycle of "well there's nothing on Reddit, I'll check Insta. There's nothing on insta, i'll check Twitter. There's nothing on Twitter, I'll check Reddit"
It's a shame that StumbleUpon is no longer around, that was an amazing tool to open your eyes to new resources and sites.
All excellent points. There is the offtopic NZ chat, which I think will encompass that light-hearted niche you're talking about.
That's really hard to answer objectively. Some of the artwork is nice, I guess? The mechanics are incredibly simplistic, but I still go back and play it every so often. I suspect that is more for nostalgia value than anything else.
It is annoying getting the message that "during fighting, your ship has been shelled and insurance won't cover the damage in a war zone" just after delivering a lovely shipment of weapons to the port of Basrah.
Thank you! It's my favourite story to tell from my journey around Japan, second only to when I almost got into an altercation with someone who was clearly in the Yakuza by accidentally walking into them and spilling beer on them. But that's for another time.
And yes, I do not miss the sideburns.
Hi all! I hope to serve this little community to the best of my abilities and help keep it an amazing place. At least once I figure out all the moderation tools.
Good on you! Writing is hard. What is your story about? Who is the main character? Who is the antagonist?

I've got all the podcasts I need at the moment, this is an opportunity for others to get the word out about other Kiwi creators, which are often very under-rated in my opinion, as well as discuss their merits.
