I remember posting on my sister's account back in mid-2007 (around 6 months before getting my own account) about something regarding the site-wide server crash FFR experienced. This is when Tass and Synth were sill pretty active in the community. I'm kind surprised I remember the reason why the servers fried: somebody sent out a challenge to another user and forgot to input a name, and the game ended up sending a challenge to everybody on the site, overloading the servers and causing general mayhem. I *think* that thread has been preserved in the Legendary Thread sub-forum, in fact.

Wasn't that the thread where Synth played along with whoever did it and said something along the lines that FFR is forever gone because of that person?

All in all I would say that Charu not only won this game, his play made me reconsider how I play it.

Yeah, that was my fault lmao. I don't remember why I decided that would be funny, but fortunately danceguy and others played along.
My first post was 11 years ago, jesus christ. I was pissed that I had negative credits and couldn't play any songs. Tass called me a noob and said I had to create a new account. Tps22 then became Tps222. Stuck ever since.
edit: damn that thread reminds me how awesome Mead is. I gotta get that guy back on here.

I'm not trying to be mean or anything, but this is kind of pointless. Most of the options you've mentioned are pretty self-explanatory and the rest (about respect, Q&A etc.) have already threads for them that are stickied. If you really wish to help out the new players, reply, or redirect, them to the appropriate places.

Erm...I'm pretty positive that the Germans didn't -hire- the Japanese to attack the United States.
The US, UK and the Netherlands had created an oil embargo against Japan as a response to the Japanese invasion of China. Japan responded by attacking not just Pearl Harbour, but into Thailand and the Dutch East indies with an eye towards siezing control of oil fields there. Pearl Harbour was as much done to slow down the ability of the US to respond to their attacks against the dutch and china as it was anything to do with the European theatre of war at all.
The only reason Japan and the United States weren't already at war at this time, was that Japan and China were careful never to actually declare war on one another, lest the UN and by extension, the US, UK, and France declare war as well.
By any reasonable standard, Pearl Harbour was a government controlled deliberate military strike on military assets as a first strike prelude to war, and not a "terrorist" activity.
