BTW,
pretty childish behaviour on that pointless thread that's now locked and where most (I guess deliberately) missed the point.

Ah well, your point came through.

Not much point in trying to be heplful.

Belated b'day greets - you young whipper-snapper (I'm guessing - but I surmise you are younger than I)

Do any of the admins see the stats for who's posting and when to the BB?

We're a very international community but most of the posts seem to be made during "normal" hours for Western Europe - i.e. if I go to bed a say 1am GMT and get up again at 6am sometimes there are only 3 or 4 posts - but if I don't check it during the working day, or worse betwixt say 6pm and 11pm GMT I sometimes have to catch up on many score of new posts...

I think that may be related to the fact that—while we are an international community—there is a clear concentration of members in Europe. As far as I am concerned, even Africa can easily be put under that umbrella. East Africa is only GMT+3, so depending on whether it's summer or winter I am only one to two hours ahead of central Europe.

Most games have some sort of paddling-pool-and-water-wings beginning to ease you in: Oolite takes the rather more Darwinian approach of heaving you straight into the ocean, often with a brick or two in your pockets for luck. ~ Disembodied

Here’s the oolite.org equivalent:

As far as I’m aware, we don’t have any equivalent for the forum.
