Thanks Oak. Yes He's right, unfortunately this happened, but the best thing is that the userbase is unharmed.

Are you guys an Aussie/Asian tribe?

Hi Sabina Our goal is to build a tribe with members from all over the world, and we have a nice amount of players from the USA and Europe. To keep it balanced we would like to get more players from australian and asian time-zones. I'm not sure but I think right now we have 3 members from Australia

Virtus did a boo-boo while messing with the forum data base and deleted everything. Jordi had a backup from a week ago and that is what see. The post explaining this is Here:

So I guess we will just have to run him through a gauntlet and slap him with wet fish.

Doesn't gauntlet mean a type of gloves ? I must be missing something, lol, this sounds too cruel Poor Virtus, you want to force him to crawl through a glove And when he is finally out, a wet fish is waiting for him !

Really, it must be a saying or something, can you enlighten me please :laugh:

:woohoo: Sounds a lot worse the way you said it Jadzia :dry:

Gauntlet also means (at lest to me) a challenge or punishment type of obstacle course, Think Medieval times.

A gauntlet was an eastern Native American tradition. Some prisoners were given the option to run through a double line of tribe members who could swing weapons at them. If the prisoner survived to the end he or she could join the tribe, or at least not be treated as a prisoner any longer. The alternative was often torture and death.

This is a kind of initiation ritual which can actually be found in nearly all societies (today, modern american street gangs do the same).

The "gauntlet" here is more a kind of ordeal, which has nothing to do with initiation or granting a privilege.
