However it became a spamthread when you labeled it as one.

Lessons learned from this post:
1) Siege, not seige, however if it's ingame and lots of action is going down or on forums, no one is really going to care unless your writing something that has to be perfect [i.e. an essay for a class] 2) crying spamthread is as good as crying wolf, and it will usually lead to the demise of a perfectly fine thread

OLL!
Back on topic, i've never seen anyone call it "seige" and if you check a "dictionary" you will learn that it is indeed "siege"
May someone explain for the stupid please?
"OGM SEIGE HIEV"
so 'I before E except after C or before GH'
