omg, all sorts of Posts in this thread are missing, includer Jasper's original "troll". How are people to make sense of a complex multi-leveled argument if the historical record is wiped clean? I've seen this happen before in forums; never w/ good results.

Surgical is sloppy but better than losing a whole topic that has good information in it.
Everything has its pros and cons.

Wyrm could, in fact, have magical weapons, but as Astral Weapon is anastral spell it would be quite a risk... A new low.level spell giving mage and/or block of units magical weapons would be nice.

Giving immortality to SC-capable pretender probably wasn't such a hot idea. Giving it to the one with earthrealness, two resistances, inherant lifedrain, and flying is something that should probably be looked at. Sort of like when the developers made an immortal unit for Vanheim, they chose the boar and not the Van. Immortal Vans are not impossible to overcome, however, this does not make them a strong balance decision.

Deleting other people's Posts? I didn't even think that was possible.

Certainly seems like a bad move to me. There have been far more rude and offensive Posts in other threads. This Last one may have been inaccurate, but if it was really deleted, then ya, I agree it would stink big-time to have Posts deleted if they weren't totally out of place (as in, threats, curses, very hurtful words, illegal stuff).

-You- can't delete other people's Posts. Moderators can.

Did Gandalf really delete other people's Posts in this case? I'd be pretty shocked if he did, since I don't recall anything being really out of line.

Deleting and editing ones' own Posts though is pretty common on this forum, although in some cases it can make it tough to figure out what happened.

That is, it's often much better to add an apology and/or disclaimer to a regrettable post, than to remove the text.
