Help! I'm trapped and can't build!
Moderator: moderators
Hmm, you seem to have backed into an anti-cheating method. I don't think your situation was anticipated.
Let me see if there's anything we can do. Don't hold your breath though. This is awkward and would require an unusual (and somewhat dangerous) bit of data manipulation to fix.
--------------------------------
By the way, this brings to mind a little forum rule that I'd like to remind everyone about - please make sure that your threads all have descriptive titles.
The reason it comes to mind now is that I almost didn't look in this thread. In the beginner forum I see a thread that says "I need help" and think "eh, they are probably asking how to set quality or something." And in that case if I'm busy, as is often the case, I'll let one of the wonderful players here answer it for you.
(Many players do a great job helping each other out. Racingtigger, Azer Productions, and Dwarf all come to mind, as do dbsuma, ganman, and farmboy, and I'm leaving out many others. People like that make these forums so great.)
Anyway, that's why when I see something I think is a simple question I may not jump on it myself if I think someone else will / has handled it well. And with a title like "I need help" that's what I figured was the case here. The only reason I came in was because with 2 pages I figured something must be going on.
So the moral of that story is that a better title for this thread would be something like Help! I'm trapped and can't build! And that you should always give your posts and emails, good descriptive subjects.
