Huh? So instead of trying to address an issue in order to fix it, we'd be better off pretending the issue doesn't exist, or just not playing the zone? Honestly, lets try to get some perspective here. This thread is not about whining, its about trying to fix a problem so it doesn't happen again in the future.

LOL. Wow what a tough guy. Go spec glitch some more, buddy.

ROFL, that shows you never been to alot of zones. I seen so many things that happened where staff is completely unfair. !@#$%^&* I seen owners ban players for suggesting ideas and others. You would expect them to be fair, but in reality, they don't have to be. What I was saying is what SHOULD be true. The idea that staff be fair. What you are saying is not making any particular point. What happens in other zones is the concern of that zone and its staff and players. I only care about what happens in the zones I play in. So what you are saying is that even though there is no rule saying teaming can't be allowed during elim, it makes a lot of logical sense that in a "solo" elim, 3v1 should be allowed. Suicide_Run, please come up with better arguments. Nothing you said has any tangible relevance to the points I have brought up regarding explicit staff favoritism.

NO ONE forces the staff to be staff. If they want to volunteer to be staff, they should have a fair mind. And if I recall, most of the public wanted pub vs pub flagging, however the staff did not want to do that. That "staff volunteer" excuse is really dumb. Staff become staff because they want to be staff. Being staff should be a privilege, not a right. Ok I checked the rules, and there is no rule against staff giving free money to players they like. Does this mean it should be legal and staff be allowed to give free "house" money to their favorite people? After all, there is no publicly viewable rule that says it is not allowed! Note: I'm not saying any free money giving took place, but i'm playing devil's advocate here, in order to prove a point.

Yes, i got $20k while the other 2 of them got a combined $150k OMG I wonder what i'm going to do with SO MUCH MONEY This game was clearly a case of staff favoritism, and no matter what anyone says, I know that they believe this simple fact.

So since you claim it is not against the "rules", then it should be allowed to happen in the future. Am I correct? The point of this thread is to make sure that unfairness does not take place in the future, however each of your posts seem to show reluctance in not letting history repeat itself. How about staff just give all the GW people another $100k, maybe there is no rule against giving free money. And since there is no rule it should be allowed. Speaking of rules, I was unable to find ANY list of hyperspace rules either in the news.txt or on the forum. Perhaps the general zone rules should be more easily found.

Before the game began, he also did not state that hiding was illegal. Halfway through the game he DID say that hiding is illegal. So when it was down to 4 people and it was obvious I was getting teamed 3v1, he could have EASILY said "no teaming". He decided, instead, to give his own squad the advantage and not say teaming is illegal. Along with the power of being staff comes the responsibility to use it fairly. This was certainly not the case today. Elim is inherently a "solo" game, I really can't see how 3v1 teaming can be justified. If teaming was allowed, then we would have been allowed to join the same team.

If being on the same team during elim is illegal, why should "teaming" without being on the same team be legal? Boldot I appreciate the fact that you've been helpful for me with explaining how certain stuff in this zone worked in the while when I first started playing in this zone, but I do not appreciate the fact that you are clearly sticking up for what is not fair.

When the game began DBE explicitly told us that we can't join the same team... therefore how on earth can "teaming" be considered fair? When the elim is down to 4 people and there w!@#$%^&* 3 GW ppl teaming against me - can we really say that a fair game was taking place? Does GW really have to be lame at every single aspect of the game? Is being lame at flagging not enough? Their players freely use the spec glitch during games they are losing, and I don't think i've seen any of them get in trouble yet. Some may say that the the elim is over now, so why discuss it? Well, this elim resulted in 2 GW people getting a total of $150k in free money. The rich are getting richer because of staff failing to keep the game within the bounds of logic. d3ath got $100k reward Zinnwaldite Finish got $50k reward I got $20k If I hadn't killed Stoked while i was getting 3v1 team-raped, then all GW members would have won the reward. While i've made fun of TrenchWars staff lots of times for minor things, this incident which occured in Hyperspace made me realize that TW staff is 100x more professional and fair than what happened with DBE during that elim.

^^ Above post is mine.

I downloaded the two or three java ASSS chat clients on ssdownloads to try them on the computers at school (which have permission restrictions not allowing students to install programs). Apparently a JRE is installed because if i try running the .jar file the zone-selection screen opens up, however I can't connect to any zone... so i assume some other type of blocking is taking place (maybe only certain ports are allowed to be opened?) Is there any way around this? Having to carry around my laptop is annoying because our college campus is rather big. I would prefer to use one of the computers at a computer lab instead.

I don't know if this is accurate/true, but its interesting anyways: http://bellaciao.org/en/article.php3?id_article=3562

http://subspacedownloads.com/index.php?act=file&fid=1076 I tried to use this on my smartphone which uses palm os (3.5.1), but i keep getting a "NetUTCPFailed" error when trying to connect. And before anyone asks, yes I connected to the internet successfully, and yes, the name i was using to login was on the vip.txt. Anyone know how to get this thing to work? EDIT: I accidently posted in general and not technical support Can a mod move this there?

The ?chat function doesn't seem to be working (it is causing subchat to crash), the same thing happens when you try putting in something for the "chat" part in the settings. Is this because of a bug in the subchat program itself, or could be it be caused by the biller?

Can I have a forum for Militaris ? Moderator: ZingyZ Thanks
