The thing is, for the most part, the bots ignore a lot of subforums. SSForum is using the same amount of bandwidth per month that SSDL does... that is kind of sad seeing as we are mostly just text. Granted only about 20-30% of our hits are bots, but still, that is far far too much b/w for as dead as we have been lately. I'm just trying this for a week or 2 to see if our bandwidth decreases. Though I wanted the spam lounge off the front page, and General Development moved up near General Discussion to promote it more.

Except the fact they seem to spend so much time in game har!@#$%^&*ing him. Referring to that more than here where yeah, takes like 30 secs to post.
-
I still have my ring. So meh.

I honestly agree with Sneakerz. You guys spend so much effort har!@#$%^&*ing the guy, if you took that same effort and put it towards something more productive, you could probably out do him seeing the amount of time you have on your hands.

Biden is someone who always caught my attention, and solidified me behind Obama. Previously I was just in the middle like most americans. Didn't want McCain, but knowing there are more cousin-!@#$%^&*ing rednecks & diehard nutcase christians than the rest of us, so a black man who supported choice would never win. So really, I fall behind Obama, knowing if anything happened to him, or the fact the person he is consulting, is someone I would trust as president.

All Ya'll STFU... case closed.

Not all Mitsubishi. They're very good at upping the power of the engines in their galants (older galants) and eclipses and then at the same time upping their weight. Plus the newer eclipses are just fugly... from side and front not bad, but from behind, fugly. Honestly I just picked up a 94 Integra and been doing a lot of work on it. Granted it only has 125k miles on it, so its not even broken in yet (if even stock engine, looks waaay too clean) and it'll run forever more. Also could use a new paint job and fix where the bumper is molded into the fender, but eh, the color has grown on me. Amazingly a lot of guys don't seem to mind a purple car, so meh.

I bought an 89 Lx-I 5spd for $100, just sold it for $1000. Had to do a lot of engine overhaul and interior work as it was left out under a tree with windows open through the winter. But it runs great still for the guy I sold it to. Amazing gas milage too.
-
Nah, really? Been that way for a LONG time bro. I almost had him talked down to $2000. But then talks just kind of stopped.

Personally I blame Hyperspace...

http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/26091252 1st read about this a few days ago, but it seems that it is even bigger than 1st thought. Figured it was worth a read.

The nav bar is going to be getting a major overhaul. And if all goes as planned, it will be a lot more functional, along with the 3 major sites it supports.

It wants a password for your alias you are trying to use. All the zones are free to enter. You may be using a alias already in use if it says incorrect password.

Yes it was a knee-jerk reaction. The old site was functional, agreed, but let's face facts: no offense to Catid, but it was really rather ugly. In any case though, what's done is done, so debating whether the makeover was warranted or not is sort of besides the point now. I at one point was going to redesign and re-code the site when it was still at catid.sscentral.com. But then I realized this "ugly" site as you called it, fully served its purpose. He kept it organized, and kept everything on there you needed. No offense, but I know Riistar can design a better site then that. The code is attrocious (sp?) and the entire layout/iframe of the site just makes it look more ugly and annoying than before. That and I can no longer go there and just scroll down with ease. Have to click in the stupid frame to scroll. The design could EASILY be made liquid, and honestly, looking at how he didn't put anything on the left, probably was meant to be. It all almost reminds me of something I've seen people make in a wysiwyg like dreamweaver. Except someone sloppied the code up even worse. Just my 2 cents. Edit: Also, many others contribute to SSCentral, SSForum.net, and SSDownloads.com. SSCentral.com "A Subspace Fan Site" | SSForum.net "Subspace's Central Forum System" | SSDownloads.com "Subspace's Central Downloads Archive". How hard were those captions. I don't take any ownership for SSForum.net outside of these forums (Swift honestly fully owns them, but calls them mine). My team does a lot of work, and earns their ranks as admins respectfully.

agreed.

The pros and cons of vista, all the !@#$%^&*ing, all the complaints, is nothing different then the move to XP. People wouldn't let go of 98 or 2000 for XP for a long time. Now they're whining XP is better than Vista... was funny when a few admins at an old forum I visit pulled out a lot of people's whining how 2000 was greater then XP and how much XP sucked, and now how they praise XP and say Vista sucks. Kind of funny to see a lot of the same complaints they had about Vista they had about XP, etc. I'll admit I hated XP for a long time too, but meh, grew on me. Vista will probably do the same.

That's why the bible also says masturbation is wrong... or so I thought. --------- But back to the subject of the racism !@#$%^&*... man, seriously, those ASSS would have a heart attack if they went out into the real world for a day. I don't know a single person who doesn't jokingly say something racist, sexist, homophobic, etc. atleast once a day. Sorry that a lot of them (read about this somewhere before) don't have a real job outside of the NAACP so they must always find court cases to cash in on to keep their organization (and wallets) lined and going.

not if it is... 1. to reset for items or 2. to try and get an advantage on flagger (IE: re-spawning towards entrance of base)

Lookin good... And to answer LC's ?message. It has been thought of before long ago and tried. It did work, but had a lot of conflicts to come around. I again brought it up a few years ago, but noone ever tried, or showed enough interest in it. Plus it is actually rather easy to get SSC now, so what is the point anymore. There is enough SSC hosts out there willing to host zones, and there is very little requirement compared to the past to get SSC.

Man, increased to 150k? 150K won't barely get you a rundown small house or mobile around here. My parents got a bargain for a 3bd 2 bath house for 240k. And the bedrooms aren't really all that big, but big enough. Mostly the vaulted ceilings make it not feel like a small house. That and the open kitchen and living room floorplan. Avg nice house I've seen runs around 320k. Hop across the water to Seattle and they jump to around 500k. But yeah, my mom is from texas, and said 150K could get you a mansion like house... But the pay is less down there anyways. Our min wage here is like 8.17 now?

Favre will goto Minnesota if he gets out of his contract... Just watch.

Some amazing stuff so far. I really like the new XBOX gui.

Sorry to post after you closed this Dav... I would submit another ticket, just out of the pure fact we had issues with name retrieval due to the temporary biller server. Now we're back on the old one, so things should be smooth again. So this would honestly be my suggestion. Maybe not the answer they want given, but my suggestion.

Than the answer is it is an automated system now. That much is pretty clear. With the little time Priit or GS have to spend in this game, and I know Mike would answer this if he did it, it has to all be automated, this much we can determine. Names and Squads use to have to be reset manually, yes. They use to do it like once every so often, then once a year, then it all seemed to just become automated. Except for the squad reset quite a few years back. But that even now seems more automated, as I rarely run into people e-mailing me or pming me about *UNKNOWN* squads anymore like they use to (Own sscentral.com... supposively you own SSC. That and I guess PoLiX and PriitK look a lot alike? I dunno). That or they got smarter... could be one of the 2, and I'm leaning more towards the 1st. Most of the control over this knowledge is no doubt to control name hording/trading. As sad as this art is, it'll never die, so most likely precautions have been taken to control it until such time that either a new name system is ever developed (doubtful) or this game dies anyways.
