I've never played any of the MOO games, i've never heard of Kali and DosBox, and who's Steve Barcia?
Anyways, welcome to the site, and happy posting.

Err...no offense, Sirion, but could you please refrain from double-posting where possible?
If you have a point to add, then edit your existing post.
Double-posting is frowned upon in these forums. I'd edit your post for you if I could, but I don't personally have access to do so in this particular forum.
If you continue, one of the the other devs who does have access may delete your posts or will merge them.
This isn't a rant, it's just intended as a heads-up.

I believe Mattress meant that instead of answering three different questions in three different replies, you could address all three questions in a single reply. You could use the [quote] blocks to indicate which posts you are replying to. It's just a courtesy that helps keep the threads shorter and easier to navigate.

Well, one problem is that threads are displayed with n posts per page, and by adding more posts, you're effectively forcing the thread to continue for more pages than necessary. The rule seems quite reasonable to me, though you are right--it should be posted under the forum rules.

It's best to think of it more as an unofficial rule - so you're excused for not knowing about it...
As MStrobel said, since the forums only show a certain number of posts per page, it forces people to constantly have to read new pages. This can be daunting for people who haven't read a few posts and see that a "whole new page" has been done.
And seriously, I didn't intend it as a rant at you, so don't take it that way. You can't be blamed for not knowing about an uncommon "rule" that isn't even posted.
Feel free to talk about whatever you like. We're all friends here...
