RE: cinnamon -- my first thought was that it comes from Viet Nam (and it does), but I have learned that Sri Lanka used to be the leading exporter of cinnamon, but Indonesia has surpassed it.

Of course I have also learned that cinnamon from Sri Lanka and Viet Nam have different concentrations of cinnemaldehyde and who knows what else, so I'm wondering when one of the cinnamon-exporting nations will deploy the "appellation contrôlée" label.

(Of course, when the asteroid smashes into the planet this would all be moot, but isn't that how most games go anyway?)

I have no idea what was against the TOS Guidelines, if the Moderator who removed it would be so kind as to inform me I would appreciate it. I always do my best to stay within the TOS Guidelines.

I remember a time when the Moderators would give you a reason why the post removed. That seems to have went out the window. I can't even remember what the post was.....LOL.....

It probably wasn't....LOL...

I admit I sometimes go over the line, but who doesn't?

Just be nice if the Moderator said what it was so I don't repeat it. 🙂

I think they were removed for being excessively dull.

I believe you're incorrect as you usually are when it comes to me.

I had to have said something that was against the TOS Guidelines. I try my best not to, but it would be very nice of the Moderator involved let me know what I said that was against the Guidelines. 🙂

Were you perhaps ridiculing someone's chess rating again?

The mods don't like that.

So the Mods don't like ridiculing someone's chess rating.

But don't mind the names I am being called, like moron, pisshead, etc., etc., is quite ok?

May be time for me to type Russ some more feedback.

I'm sure he has a special drawer for all your feedback.

I can tell you this much he listens, looks, and decides for himself.

We still have a few bias Mods, which will always be the case. Russ and I have discussed this, and not much can be done about it. Russ can't look at every single post made, that is why he depends on his Mods.
