Picked this gem up when I was a kid. I'd be willing to sell it for the right offer. Feel free to approach me if you want to part with your satoshis.

Isolated Warrior is a 1991 video game developed by KID and published by Vap for the NES. It falls in the shooter genre, although its gameplay also includes elements reminiscent of platforming, while it features isometric projection, similar to Sega's Zaxxon. The game is shown entirely from an overhead perspective, as in traditional top-down shooters.

The player must collect weapon upgrades and operate various machines to combat the alien enemies. Various obstacles, such as pitfalls and land mines, must be avoided. There is a boss battle at the end of each level, and sometimes mid-level as well. The player's progress in the game could be saved using a password system.

Between levels, images and text were sometimes displayed which showed Maverick's thoughts or reminiscence about his life. The game's plot takes place on a planet outside of Earth's galaxy called "Pan", which is suddenly attacked by a mysterious alien force. The aliens have the unique power to consume any living thing, as well as machines and buildings. Pan soon becomes overtaken by the alien force and the army of Pan begins losing all of its military power. The soldiers and people of Pan are told to evacuate the planet, however, a captain of the army, Max Maverick, refuses to leave. He instead suits for battle and faces the aliens alone, using a motorcycle and hovercraft as his means of transportation. Max must stop the alien menace or face the destruction of his world.

It’s how posts are promoted on the hivelist.org site. When you pay LIST to promote a post, it burns that LIST, taking it out of circulation making LIST deflationary,

I’ve seen you have a promoted post or 2 before that I didn’t promote so I figured you knew, lol. It’s all good. Yeah actually most of the tribe front ends have this feature. It’s just rarely used.
