  1. polix@subspace.nu I can easily have that one removed if really bad spam begins.
  2. http://stats.trenchwars.org/index.php?a=zone&id=5854 - Not doing too bad
  3. I've been bugged for... a long time now to restart The Abyss. Altec and me did it once, but just didn't have things setup/the draw we needed. Well, a lot of players are zoneless now, or zone hopping again, so figured it was a good time to do it. To most players its new, to the vets, its old, and to others, they never heard of it but we're here during 2000-2002. The Abyss is Turf Flagging, Powerballing, Bounty Rabbit, and Chaos (open dueling). The settings are heavily mixed of DSB, TW, and EG. Bullets and Bombs are deadly, so you make your weapon of choice, and there is a great stronghold at the fr, but it does have its weaknesses if a team can setup right. 2 Simple goal structures left and right make for some fun balling for players (in time will setup a powerball side game again), and of course everyone loves chasing the bounty rabbit and pwning the poor newb who some how killed the last one. But just figured I'd throw it out there to all the old ex players (quite a few out there) that I put the zone back up.
  4. I sent you an e-mail to send on to the council Hoch. But pretty much, I have 0 access to this form, and I get about 80% of the name requests between myself and mom. As I said in such E-mail, BlueGoku posted in HZ he was quiting SS, so I dunno his stance with billing, and as far as I know he and Mackie we're the only 2 with access to the form. Mackie is no longer an op, and I dunno his status. So really, sending em to the form unless I know they'll get helped, isn't an option for me.
  5. Where do people who don't really know nor don't really care fall? But, religion according to the bible: I also find the 1st paragraph of this so very true: Me, my only real belief is if I do good and help others, good happens to me. As it always has seemed. My nickname with my g/f's family is "Mr. Lucky" as I always have good things happen to me, win a lot of stuff, and always seem to get the best deals/hook ups on anything. Why? I'm honest and not a dick. Does that mean my belief is a religion? According to the religious people's bible, no. According to myself, no. According to others, maybe, maybe not. Life is what you make it, and you're only here a short time, so enjoy it.
  6. http://forums.invisionpower.com/topic/288159-invision-power-board-3-0-1-released/ Delayed CCS a bit, well that and adding more features to CCS. But from the last few issues people we're reporting, this should fix them.

  9. If you wouldn't mind, copy and paste your server.ini here. Edit out the passwords of course. But will give us a good idea.
  10. I agree. I forget where I once read it, but it was in the high 60s percent of computer users, that only use a computer to check e-mail and browse the web. They rarely, if ever, play game, and barely use any apps beyond Internet Explorer or Firefox (depending on OS). So really, Google is aimed at a HUGE percentage of the computer base when you get into it. And toss in the fact, 100% of computer users browse the web, they're aimed at everyone. I think it is worth a try on their part.
  11. I'm always signed on msn, 24/7. Just I work during the week and been busy on the weekends lately. But I do get on SS quite a bit to check messages and take care of name issues. Just hit me up and I'll reply when I get to it. I get up ~8 (PST) on the weekends. Check e-mail and ims ~9ish and then go do stuff. So just leave me an IM and be on.
  12. http://www.microsoft.com/windows/virtual-pc/ Old one was free, so new one is planned to be. Last I heard from MS it was going to be atleast.
  13. Currently my PC time is going towards SSO development (which is going pretty good if I must say so), and another small project has come my way. It will play a large role in this game, and will be a pretty big central place for players. More info in time, but anyone got a bit to design a basic static website? Will only have 3 maybe 4 pages, and 2 offsite (though part of site) links. Lemme know if you got the time. Thanks.
  14. Wireless? Looks kind of local. Cause its lagging everywhere, though your from asia I am asuming. Or australia.
  15. Sweet
  16. Software Emulation more than 2xed my FPS and fixed all my screen lag issues. Give it a try.
  17. The government barely monitors its own employees on the internet. It also barely monitors its own employees in a lot of secure areas. In the short time I've worked for them on a naval base, I have really begun to believe a lot of the "security" measures they tell us they take are just bs or for show. Also how many times one of the nuclear sub bases has failed security checks, yeah... With how little effort they put towards monitoring us (though we're "more trustworthy") I just don't see them putting so many measures in out in public. Though looking at the stuff countries like Iran and North Korea have done to their people, or even some african nations, i'd say they're closer to big brother than we will ever be in our own lifetimes.
  18. Watch football sometime... There is life beyond video games and movies.
  19. good ol Jibjab.
  20. Me and Mom we're fully announced last night by Ghost. So the Netop(s -depended on time of topic) I didn't list, now you know.
  21. Ed McMahon, Farrah Fawcett, Micheal Jackson, and now Billy Mays.
  22. So then the bot would only be for sysops, as they really are the only stable not constantly removed, and smallest population of staff. Which doesn't solve much of anything. Noone (who'd be given access to) is going to sit around and manage the staff list on a bot with lower access than that... And what if they're not on, some staffer gets fired, and decides to spam up the bot. Or multiple. Or some zones hire staff that I personally wouldn't trust with a empty squirt gun, and you want them to have access to this, expecting them not to abuse it. And then you got all the "Please net-ban this person" bs that'd go on. Personally, I think Hoch and MikeTheNose are doing a great job. And i'll reiterate it again and again until it gets through some of the thick skulls here, but there is nothing they are doing wrong, and there is nothing more we can do. We have pushed bang to its limits with Russ, and even had we net-banned him, he'd just hit disconnect, reconnect, and changed his macid and he's back. Its very simple to do, and he'll just continually do it over and over no matter how many net-bans we place. And the issues with Net-Bans, we have MANY players now getting caught in his net-bans. So net-bans have to be placed more carefully, and it causes more headaches. TW Players just need to continue being informed of what is going on, and informed not to change their password, and no staff or op would EVER request them to do so. What needs help, is we need to add another billing op or 2 just with names access to help players getting tricked or screwed over. BlueGoku doesn't seem to be responding to e-mail much, nor in game much, so I have been taking most of the issues I get under my wing and dishing them out to between Ghost Ship and (Edit: name withholding). In all honesty, this needs to be fixed on the zones level before anything else. As SSO's Support FAQ grows...
