I am never offended by a persons perceptions of the world or their inclinations to express them.

Couslee, so what if it was his first post? That doesn't mean his opinion is any less valid than anyone else's.

Indeed. Since there only 24 hours a day, one can not both play SE and post here. It is entirely possible that people with lowest post count know SE more than Cantina regulars.

I "de lurked" today to post my haiku about the shuttle. I took what couslee said with a large grain of salt, (about the size of the Rock of Gibraltar). I wonder if Crossfire did.
I’ve an inclination to ask couslee who in the forum he believes is qualified to give an unbiased opinion on purchasing Gold. I personally enjoy the combination of TDM and Fyron’s Quadrant Mod. I don’t think they work with Classic. They always give me a run for my money.
To make the contest a bit harder I encourage you to handicap yourself no matter what Version you play.

In answer to Arkon's question - Yes I am playing on high difficulty and I am playing with a high bonus to the computer players. Just to make it more difficult I also go max number of opponents and no neutrals.

About the number of Posts topic - I asked for opinions, I didn't say only answer if you have posted "x" number of times on this forum. I have been playing SEIV for a while now but I have not posted previously either. I and I hope others would make judgements based on the content of the Messages a person Posts. Otherwise I could sit here for the next week and post a few hundred pieces of drivel on this board just to "up my rating".

I did hear what I was looking for and I will be upgrading to the Gold Version. I just didn't want to hear a bunch of people say don't throw your money away its not worth it to upgrade. I only hope that they continue to support the Version I am going to buy now.

another reason fo Gold is that several _very_ good mods, like Proportions, utilize special Gold features and can not be played with 1.49
