This falls under my realm of moderation, and I am making sure to keep up with my own responsabilities. If you feel Im oversteping my bounds, and acting like a power hungry R&D MOD, PM The Staff, Get on messanger and bug them about me until they get rid of me. Posting over and over in this thread that does not address you nor requests your prescence is both agrevating and disrespectful.

Im going to treat you like a spammer until you start acting like a respectable person, and outright ignore any posts in this thread by you until I see resolution in the issuie I am posting about.

Demos. Stop.

You've made your point.

Heir, I know its easier said then done sometimes but if you react, he'll just wind you up more.

Anyway.

Seems to me the staff have already ok'd it, but I'll look into it.

Question: if PMing the staff about a possible issue is the right and proper route to take, why does this thread exist?

Quote from the R&D thread page four.

Raktus
When did we say ship upgrading was ok again?

Kas
Raktus: This R&D was approved quite awhile, I just brought it up for a review because of its uberness.

Showing that yes you brought this up a long time ago, and kas said it was ok. Plus on my next post when I made sure I was allowed to start equipping my ships with it, ahnk said i guess and kas then replied yes.

So by that I'd say yes it is perfectly legal for me to upgrade my ships with it.

yes but my point is was that not for past ships pre-R&D and not for all ships built since? IE: Ships before this R&D could be upgraded, but ships would have to be built with it after, or not have it at all?

I thought it was legal to upgrade new ships, still do. If I could only upgrade ship prior to the R&D being made, than I would only end up with a small portion of my fleet having the elite and that portion would grow smaller as I got more and more ships.

Then thats where the clarification needs to be made..

Well if that was the condition for approval to begin with then that may well be the case.

Relax , the staff will look into it.

You've both made your cases. I want to consult with both Ahnk and Kas before I give a final judgement here, since they were the ones who originally Ok'd the tech to begin with.

I will say however, that if it has already been approved , then I don't see what the fuss is about.

...but like I said, I want to check the 'conditions' first.

Well I've looked the R&D over and I don't see why this should be a sudden concern, to be honest.

There were no 'limits' enforced (aside from the obvious conditions from the R&D mods at the time) even after a review initiated by Kas, from what I can see.

At least not in what you were pointing out Heir. ( no such conditions were asked by the mods from what I can see).

I don't see anything wrong here.

So unless you're actually asking the actual tech itself to be reviewed once more, theres not much else to say or do here.

But then you could always wait and see what Ahnk and Kas have to say.

How about Demos and Gue meet in real life and fight to the death for it?
