I think the term is "euphemism". <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wink.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=";)" border="0" alt="wink.gif" />

"Euphemism" = "an inoffensive or indirect expression that is substituted for one that is considered offensive or too harsh"

"Troublesome" was the "euphemism". Or "understatement" if you will. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/razz.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":razz" border="0" alt="razz.gif" />

I'm trying to get through to Keith and/or William again because the PotC Files and PotC Build FTPs don't work anymore. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/modding.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":modding" border="0" alt="modding.gif" />

Well, Keith has been showing up every once in a while and he's about due now to make another appearance. Leave a message in his mailbox if you haven't already.
 
He already sorted the problem earlier today. <img src="style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wink.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=";)" border="0" alt="wink.gif" />
 
With Thomas and me both being too busy, we figured we need a new PotC Build Mod dedicated moderator.
Captain Maggee has done great work for the Build Mod in the past and has also been very helpful to any and all members on the forum.
As such, he seems like the right choice to join the team. So welcome, Moderator Maggee! :cheers
 
Congratulations Captain Maggee! :onya
 
Cheers mates :cheeky

I will try my hardest to do the job that has been set before me and moderate the forum to be a better place :woot
 
That bad, eh, Stallion? You shouldn't worry; we're not very quick to ban people.
Especially people who have supported us in the past. ;)
 
You're too valuable, we don't have many spammers now. Where is Morgan by the way? He is a bit quite and I SWEAR I didn't have ANYTHING to do with it
