  1. US adopts 6mm caliber in 1930s

    Welcome to the board. Please do not ignore the warning about bumping old threads unless you have something significant to add.

  2. Monsieur Z : Is a civil war in interwar France REALLY possible?

    Come on, you know not to bump old threads for no reason. This thread got very little discussion when you originally posted it, so if you want to discuss the topic again, just repost it.

  3. What if Charles Babbage had completed his Difference Engine before 1830?

    It’s perfectly okay to bump an old thread with a significant contribution. If you think someone is breaking the rules, you should report them, not tell them what to do.

  4. Anno Obumbratio: A 16th Century Alternate History

    Don’t be obnoxious.

  5. "To Introduce our Guest Star, that's What I'm Here to Do..." The Hensonverse Fan Contribution Thread

    Another day, another kick of kirbopher15 for being juvenile and rude.

  6. WI: An Anti-Appeasement Popular Front in Interwar Britain

    You bump your own threads quite a bit. It’s a nasty habit, you might grow hair on your palms and go blind. I understand it’s frustrating to not get as many responses as you think you deserve, but bumping your own thread over and over is not the answer.

  7. Economic consequences of a truck bomb attack against Wall Street and the London Stock Exchange

    Unhinged racism, like I said.

  8. Economic consequences of a truck bomb attack against Wall Street and the London Stock Exchange

    Fascinating, but first can we talk about the previous accounts of yours I’ve banned for unhinged racism?

  9. Map Thread XXII

    And to head off your inevitable question, telling rude people to stop being rude does not bring me joy; I have achieved complete detachment from desire and can therefore post free from dukkha at all times.

  10. Map Thread XXII

    Personal attacks are not the appropriate response to being told to be respectful. Kicked for a week.

  11. Anne's New Life

    I tend to agree with this. No need to get overzealous about the framing device unless it winds up dominating the story.

  12. What if Excite bought Google in 1999? How might the Internet have changed?

    I don't know that there's any reasons to assume the fundamentals of the Internet business would change that dramatically. The question is more how Google as a corporate behemoth has shaped the larger tech industry.

  13. Alternative History Map of China (the 1989 Democracy protests succeeded) (NOT MEAN'T TO BE 100% REALISTIC)

    It’s not against the rules to regurgitate CCP propaganda, but you can’t do it in such an inflammatory way.

  14. English Federalism?

    This is an interesting idea to me because I've mentioned a couple of times in threads on current affairs that the Ukraine/Russia relationship is a surprisingly close analogue to the Scotland/England one and the breakup of the USSR could be described in some sense as Russia seceding from the...

  15. Photos from Alternate Worlds II (read FAQ first)

    You can be a little less of a jerk about it.

  16. Our Fractured Crown: An Eastern Roman Timeline

    What should have answered your question is the warning you clicked past saying this thread was dead.

  17. Photos from 1983: Doomsday

    They weren't closed due to him, it was posts other people made that led me to close them. I don't think he was stubborn, just clueless.

  18. Photos from 1983: Doomsday

    I'm kind of shocked it was only four kicks for excessive grossness. I feel like I get a report of that guy being gross at least once a week. I went back and reviewed my comments on reports I didn't act on and in each case my comment was something like how this isn't really something I'd act on...

  19. Army in WW1

    Secondarily to David's point, the U.S. at this point has occasional tensions with the UK (though, as he says, war is unrealistic) but long-lasting alliances and connections with France and Russia. Many Americans, even German-Americans, are very skeptical of the rise of Germany (which at this...

  20. What if India was never colonized?

    Sure, if you want.
