The Darkness:

In fact, earth's largest desert isn't even in Africa.

Due to the fact that the earth is spheroidal in shape most of the energy it receives as sunlight occurs at or near the equator. The hot low-pressure air rises and draws moisture with it. As the air continues to rise it expands and cools causing rain to fall. The cooling air then flows outward from the equator, losing moisture as it goes until, at about 30 degrees north and south latitudes cool, dry air falls back to earth in a high-pressure area where there is very little rainfall. In Africa this results in the Sahara Desert in the north and the Kalahari Desert in the south.

A similar pattern occurs at the extremes of latitude with the polar convection. Antarctica lies at the South Pole where dry, high-pressure air cycles back to earth, creating a very arid climate. Antarctica has considerable fresh water locked up in ice only because the cold temperatures prevent the very little precipitation it receives from melting.

Speaking of cold, the coldest temperature recorded in Antarctica was −89.2°C (−128.6°F). Carbon dioxide freezes at  −57°C.

Thank you for the info again Metis, but what has this to do with Treaty xD

I caught Metis Off-Topic!!

It's not our policy to openly discuss private bans, or else I'd post the 2 dozen stolen accounts kerkumus was found to be using, or the 5 that predatorfreak was using.

But that'd be against policy.

I authorise you to post the names of the accounts I'm accused of "stealing", heck I'll do it for you, predatorfreak was mine, _pi is mine, the_hand_of_god is mine, qu1cksilver99 was pacman97's, he quit and gave it too me, you could ask him, he'd confirm this, energie was an account I was allowed to use by it's owner.

So congradualations! You banned me for using 2 accounts my friends gave me and 3 that I owned, are you joking?

I authorise you to violate my privacy and post your proof that I ever stole a single account. I'm confident it's non-existent, as surely someone in your position could compare the password hashes of the accounts, compare them over the last number of months and see that the password was never changed except for the accounts I actually own.

why would you take other people's accounts?

by the way, isnt that illegal, even IF the accounts are GIVEN to you?

No wonder Energie plays real good sometimes and then other times he would really .s,uck...there were several people playing it lol.

gooback219:

well he said that the rules he uses were handed down to him be SOLUS, but that doesn't help. I give up metis, who?

I though maybe the community would want to discuss this and perhaps sleuth a bit.

I hope the poll will help...

I hope Kerk gets his account back... 

I think it has all been blown out of proportion and think Kerk deserves to get it back...

Even if there is proof  of him stealing an account or more than one or w/e, he still deserves a second chance to get back to playing aoe3 online.
