  1. Well, we we're right. From the new head CEO himself (Bobby Chang), they want to take over everything, and offer it as "free at 1st". So I am 100% sure this seals any cooperation between us and them on anything (ie: advertising) as a no go.
  2. E-mail sent, topic closed. I will forward reply to council, and after a few days re-open this topic with new e-mails. As I said, I am a bit more transparent on things going on than others.
  3. Yeah, same host
  4. Mine was easy. went in, paid, got picture taken, got new id.
  5. To better keep the players up to date on our projects & progress, this topic will track our tasks for public view. SSForum.net Updated: 02/02/10 Install Arcade System for IPB 3.0 (once released) SSCentral.com Updated: 02/02/10 SubSpaceOnline.com Updated: 02/02/10 More tasks to come...
  6. MM... entertaining to think that you guys think we'd make a decision to hand over this game without 100% ok. Hell no they're not getting this game. Now, will we push them away from helping develop a new client or maybe hosting some zones/servers, dunno. Depends on their whole stance. They seem to want absolute control, something they won't get. I do plan to e-mail him back with straightforward answers. Honestly, before I even e-mailed him, I told MTN what his e-mail would most likely contain, and such it was exactly what I expected. The main reason I posted this, was more that most the time people complain noone tells them anything about what is going on "behind the scenes" and here ya have it. And half the reason I don't post too much of it, noone can sit down and have just a normal discussion or debate. Always has to turn into personal attacks. Anyways, there is a lot of plans in the works right now. SSF/SSO is waiting on IPB 3.0 (6 months and counting, though they're now saying 2 weeks...). Need to call Ghost and talk to him about some of the stuff me and snrrrub discussed on the phone last night, part of which was this.
  7. comparing them to all the settings I have now, and they're not much off. Nothing that shouldn't have kicked him. So there is ways around it. Couple of zones: The Abyss, Redstar, Star Wars, Older TW, my 2 old zones, older EG, SVS, and Subgame defaults.
  8. No sysop trick, was a player. "Spuds." to be exact in MG in ?go bounce. All our lag settings shoulda kicked him, but no luck.
  9. We use to have that... But then people began abusing it. 3.0 has more controls on it, so will re-add a lot of stuff when I update that. Should be in the next week or so according to them.
  10. So while I've been waiting on IPB 3.0 I decided to help out MG and am running a small tourney for them. If you play or played mg, join up, I may end up making this cash prized... Depends on how many sign up and how popular. http://metalgearctf.net/forums/index.php?showtopic=11761
  11. Ditto, just not in a while since everyone got Cable... I dunno how he didn't dc even... Suddenly he had like 4 lines of text, and was back. It was odd... normally people kicked long before that, so subgamed bugged somehow.
  12. Just figured I'd share... PING Current:60 ms Average:1020 ms Low:40 ms High:48270 ms S2C: 0.1% C2S: 5.5% S2CWeapons: 0.0% hah.
  13. try clicking Zones then download and see if it updates ports and IPs for you.
  14. read the sig.
  15. make sure you re-install/update your video card drivers after getting a new monitor. Sometimes the drivers for your card don't right away realize the settings/limitations of your monitor, and installing or updating monitor drivers doesn't always fix it. I typically just download latest drivers, as it is just a reason to/reminder, and fixes it. I have had this issue many times before with LCD monitors in the past with many games, dunno why.
  16. I mean this in the nicest way possible, but downloading of a virus through continuum I have NEVER heard of. If you got this, you are the 1st person ever in all the years this forum has been around (~7yrs / 1yr short of the life of the continuum client itself). So really, I'd have to say you were mistaken where this virus came from. Though Continuum itself, and some its files will show up on Virus scanners as a Virus, due to the way it is packed, a lot of viruses and spyware programs are packed the same way. It just keeps them from being modified/mutated, or someone else taking credit. In our case it keeps it from people being able to cheat easily or modify their client to do harm or putting a modified harmful one out. Also helps keep the protocol secure so no variation in the server itself can be made to send files without the clients knowledge, which in that case, has to be acted upon by the client. Bots are on the servers, yes. But bots again cannot send files. Continuum supports no file sending to clients. That was all removed years ago when we still used the SubSpace client. Now if your are still so worried about this, just tell him to not play on any servers without the "SSC" prefix (IE: SSCU or SSCC) or not on "SSA", "BlueT", or "PSS". The "SSC" zones are on secure professionally hosted servers, and are specially voted on/qualified to be connected to the "SSC" player database. The SSA server is SSCA's zones not on the SSC biller, through the fact they have not met player base requirements, and BlueT and PSS are smaller servers, but are hosted by 2 trusted players. Most other zones are on people's computers, or smaller servers I have yet to hear of personally, though some are secure, not all can be known. Again, Players cannot harm your client. They can crash servers, or go around bans with effort, but it has no effect on you or your computer. Google ANY game and the word "cheaters" or even better, Google many popular games and "Hacking" or "Viruses" or anything of that nature. Hell, do it on any program you use to connect to the internet. The browser you are using to read this is less secure than our little game. We're off most anyone who knows what they are doing's radar, and we have made many efforts to keep cheating out. Most cheating is done with universal programs that are used on all games. It just speeds up your CPU clock, modifies your memory or registry, etc. Again, I have never heard of ANYONE getting a virus through Continuum, and I have ran these forums since their birth and admined the ones before we combined as SSForum. So odds are as I said, your scanner thought a Continuum file was a virus when it was not (has happened many times with new versions of our game and we get virus scanners to fix that normally pretty quickly), or a file was downloaded from a website with a virus and extracted into the continuum folder. There was some of this once happening, you just never download anything someone you don't know tells you. This is true of anything he uses on the internet, or any website he visits. The official Zone/Game sites check all their files, and most just post the same files everyone else has on the major websites. So really, beyond players posting links to stupid crap, I haven't seen a link to a virus or a cheat in quite a few years now. But again, just don't visit anything from anyone you don't regularly play with or talk to or trust. Internet 1.0 right there. Hope this answers all yours, and anyone in the future's questions.
