Recent Advances

It appears this phrase is no longer allowed, as demonstrated by post removals of new instances of the phrase, and board warnings being issued.

Yet as soon as yesterday, Foreboding made the statement and was not moderated ( post still present ).

What conclusions can we gather? :
  • An inability to distinguish between the injoke and the original troll that started it?
  • New rules being introduced but nobody told?
  • The change occurred within the last 24 hours
  • Talk of Recent Advances has been low this month
  • Disgruntled people who would rather keep quiet about it until ready to act?
We have plenty of other sayings here that reign supreme and have far worse meanings and intentions behind them e.g. "I Fuck in SKy" was never moderated purely for its mere presence in a forum post.

What is the official stance? I will be back shortly.

does not get much more recent then this!

The rules regarding recent advances are:
1) One does not ask about recent advances unless adequate* time has passed.

You violated rule #1 by having already asked for recent advances 24h before.
(I guess you mean your post in "BA model replacements" thread thread.)

On the other hand, Forb waited 4 days before asking. (in the "units near feature" thread.)

*calculated using a complicated formula taking in account potential epicness of advances, interesst in advances and posters highscore in QWOP. If the thread is srsbsnss a 400% modifier is applied.

It was spam, and had no place in the thread it was removed from. Stop generalizing and move on.
