STOP BEING MIDLEVEL
- PLAYERS WERE NOT SUPPOSED TO BE GIVEN DIVS
- YEARS OF PLUS SERVERS YET NO REAL-WORLD USE FOUND for going higer than LOW INK
- Wanted to go higher anyway for a laugh? We had a tool for that: It was called "SWIM OR SINK"
- "Yes please give me a good SQ power. Please give me a good result" - Statements dreamed up by the utterly Deranged
LOOK at what the midlevels have been demanding your Respect for all this time, with all the sendouq & weeklies we built for them
