No, merely writing as someone whose ancestors were probably at least indirectly responsible for the annihilation of African civilization. We will certainly have benefited from it, given that without it there would be no British Empire, just a muddy island occasionally conquered by the [[France|French]].

==User Status==

You have just been upgraded to sysop level. As you did not ask for this you will be relieved to know that this status comes with no obligations. It does however allow you to do a number of things such as edit the Main Page, and block spammers. To block spammers go to the Recent Changes page, where the block option will come up for any user that has not logged in (ie, they are an IP address). If they have logged in, you can block them by going to Special pages, scrolling to the bottom, clicking on Block User and typing in their name.

There are a couple of other minor things you can do, including protecting pages, but there is only one page where it was felt that was necessary, so it's not a commonly used power.

If you have any further questions, just put them up here. In part this is our way of saying both that we trust you, and we appreciate your efforts on the wiki. [[User:Conrad Leviston|Conrad Leviston]] 08:54, 27 May 2005 (CDT)

Hello and welcome to Cunnan,

Good work on what you've been working on so far, we normally start by encouraging new users to make edits but you've beaten us to it. Feel free to edit your user page to tell us about yourself and link to any other websites you're involved in.

One small tip: you can sign your user-name on talk pages by typing ~~~ for something like "Tobin" or by typing ~~~~ for "Tobin 09:04, 7 Oct 2004 (EST)".

Kingdom of Alvia

Since you added it to Other re-enactment sites, could you explain what exactly Alvia is coz the homepage confuses me. Is it a fictional kingdom played within Far Isles or is it a breakaway group from Far Isles? - Cian Gillebhrath

Alvia as such never existed, and, in due course, will come off here. It was "invented" as a Far Isles plot device. I offered to flesh it out, did so, and found that the people who'd started it had forgotten saying I could, and thought someone had run with the idea and founded it. However, the FI have stuck with it and (for those who don't know the *truth*) I don't want to spoil the illusion that it might be Out There Somewhere. It's here short-term simply for that reason (and because I built the p*gg*ng web-site and I'm proud(-ish) of it. Thank you for bothering to look at it. It will also die eventually, but I have three more heraldic devices to put on, and several Guilds yet to do. Not to mention possibly the Return of Wicked!Alix and her Dupe-Princess!Ysabeau.
