Greco-Persian Wars

Just wanted to know what you guys think about the Greco-Persian Wars. I personally think it was a moment of triumph for the Greeks.

I agree. The Greeks showed their bravery.

The Athenians provoked the wars.

by rebelling and becoming independent? And them not surrendering?

..... Dude, if you don't know what you are talking about, it's actually best not to talk out your ass...

BUT, the question is: What if Persia won?

Then the Romans would have had a tough adversary with a large base on mainland Europe later on...

Persia provoked the wars by asking for land.

Here's a clue: Ionian cities

So you are saying the Athenians provoked the war by putting cities on Turkish peninsula?

Don't double post. Edit instead.

Hes a newcomer, give him a break...

Wow, really? So I shouldn't tell a newcomer when they're breaking the rules? I should just let them keep breaking them without knowing?

You should tell them, but nicely and via private message...

I certainly didn't say it in a mean way. Certainly nothing to warrant someone telling me to give him a break. Also FYI we're required to warn about it in the thread.

I didn't mean you said it mean, but you said it like you were a robot. Add a please or thanks in advance or smileyface.

I don't want things to be arbitrarily nice, get it done and that's it.

But this is why people do not like the mods, they are generally unemotional.

People don't like us because we do our jobs, I've seen people smile at me while doing nothing and it annoys me to no end.
