  1. Official? How is it official in any way? According to SSWiki, the Subspace Continuum Wikipedia: I never edited that cause I never thought anyone would take it so seriously... but really, it is not. As me and TT and others have discussed, GetContinuum.com is a great page to point possible new players to for information, yes. But once they get started, it really doesn't help them in any way, as they can find the same links they need elsewhere, or on their zones website. So really, calling it the official portal, is kind of misleading. It is more the Official Continuum Advertising website if anything, which as I remember, is what Wonderer was originally aiming for.
  2. mm? And Nav Bar Updated.
  3. Download Now! link added to top left.
  4. Possibly on some of my days off if the g/f and friends are workin. But dunno. Right now just seeing how things are going w/ my 99% afk from administration.
  5. !@#$%^&*a. Come out here to the island. Saves me paying $3 to get off of it, lol. !@#$%^&*... gotta do that when I got pick the g/f up from the airport... my "Good to Go" is on my honda, not her car. Oh well... To the other posts, I'll still probably post occasionally, but my administration will be none. I'm fully LEAVING, just, no longer playing or administrating these forums. Granted I may be gone for months at a time, but eh, i'll try to drop in. And to JDS: trust me, there is a lot to do to keep these forums and site up and running. According to ACP ~3000 actions done by me since Jan 2006. Add in stuff in the ftp, file edits, reinstalls, etc. it consumes your time quickly. Also w/ sscentral, and getting wiki going, banning people like yourself, 007paul, etc. Cleaning crap up, dealing with bots and spammers, etc. etc. Before you know it, 3-4hrs has passed like nothing. And to add into that... Last month: ~400,000 hits from bots... ~195,000 unique visitors... ~2.9million hits total. We also pushed near the 30gb mark in b/w. So trust me, these forums are constantly getting hit up, and the db always needs some cleaning and monitoring. It has crashed 2x too many in the past, and my goal was it would never happen again. Really, the general posts of our forum, are what brings a lot of the traffic (Search engines), but almost 1.5million of those hits came from direct access (IE: Typed it in, bookmark, etc.). Anyways, gotta go pick up some flowers, and pick the g/f up from the airport. Later.
  6. I was gone for 8 months. Only reason I came back, was to help out Swift. He moved up here to WA and stuff, and needed help on ssforum w/ some things. We we're hangin at his place, and he asked me to do a few things for him, before you know it, I was back in charge of things. He has since quit, and honestly, no offense to anyone, but anyone I would consider a friend in this game, like I did him, has pretty much retired. The people I talked to daily, worked w/ daily, and would meet irl if it ever came up (IE: Swift, and helping him get settled here in WA). On top of having a new job, and possibly keeping a 2nd job, I am going to have little time to even spend behind a PC. Any free time will be spent w/ her and friends. The only time I may come back here, is to see if it is still running. As Swift may forget, or not have ability to renew it again, and this time lose it. Anyways, gonna be sending pm's w/ all the passwords and users needed. Giving D1st0rt control of the WHMs. Freakmonger should already have this, so they should be able to handle things. All for now.
  7. Once all is finished... D1st0rt and Samapico will for sure take command of SSForum.net. Freakmonger has not been around, but Trained is getting some of the things needed to finish SSCentral done. So imho, may offer to hand it over to him. I am going to try and get T-man re-involved in his site again, and maybe him and trained take it all over. I'll probably be around to post from time to time, but really, my focus on this community has become null. I am finishing a few final projects, but I have other things I'd rather pursue rather then spending my time on these sites. I'm tired of feeling like I'm ignoring my g/f and friends to work on these sites and keep them up and maintained. I have put a lot of time and energy to get them back alive and running, and now it is time for others to run w/ them. As Swift had said the many times he's told me to just quit like he did, it gets old when 1 man has to do all the work, due to those who have the knowledge to help, don't. So I have had to take time, and help teach, watch, and wait til people could learn to do the things needed to run, update, and work on these sites. Those who know how, won't, and it really kicks the community in the nuts. I mean, sorry to say it, but Freakmonger couldn't code his way out of a box w/ an html cheat sheet, but he tries, so I give him credit for that. Trained I had to teach a lot of html standards, and such, so sscentral would be W3C XHTML certified, and I didn't spend all my time recoding his and freak's pages (although I ended up doing it still, but he's got the knowledge now, so noone should have to in the future). But I think they can learn, and will learn in their actions. Next to Swift, these guys have been the most promising in my eyes to take over these sites in all my years running them. So I put full trust in them, and !@#$%^&*ure you that you can also.
  8. If you look at the credits on the youtube description, it was produced and written by discovery channel. Well, another company, but solely for their commercial.
  9. So I am planning my departure. It has been a great 10+yrs, 8yrs spent working in the web community, but my time is done. I have put a lot of thought into it over these past few weeks, and really, it is over. I will post more in depth later. SSCentral is 90% done, just needs some images for the front page, and the news template to be made. I can provide all psds, and anything needed to finish it. SSForum runs itself, and is 100% ready. Someone will have to be either added as secondary by Swift, or be someone he trusts w/ his login and p!@#$%^&* to IPB. Honestly, I think D1st0rt and Samapico could do a great job running things here, and Freakmonger over at SSCentral w/ some help. But I will wait and see who steps up. I would like to begin getting these replacements settled in by Monday. So lemme know if you're interested soon. Again... More on this later...
  10. Lol. 2 stores I went to yesterday, had stock piles of GTA. Like good 30ish easy. So dunno where all the hype went.
  11. my bro has one. I just have an xbox, wii, and ps2.
  12. Your xbox360 or someone elses? Still debating buying one.
  13. If you'd like to add it to your website, just add the code from http://network.sscentral.com/ to the head section of your website. If you have any issues, or need any help, please lemme know. I can do custom fixes in the css for any website needed.
  14. Congrats, and GL... And yes. At the rate poor mm is going, his son may have to finish it for him.
  15. Next Upcoming Project: Aquiring SubspaceHQ.com So far have gotten it dropped another $300 since last bid, going to continue in on this, and see where I can get it. The donations will probably set close to my max offer. I'll throw in $100 to this. Getting back atleast 1 of the main websites players use to know to goto to see what this old game was up to is key to trying to get some old lost players addicted in my eyes. !@#$%^&*, I'd even let mackie throw his stuff from SSBase.com up on it. So if you'd like to donate to this, lemme know and I'll open the donations up again.
  16. PoLiX

    SIT

    So when do we exclaim "April Fools!" it's almost been a month...
  17. Make a seperate thread and lemme know what games are broken.
  18. I removed 1 mod that took away the money making ability. Just haven't installed the others. Sorry that I like going outside and enjoying the sun taking a walk w/ the g/f and dogs. Also been hitting the gym and pool more lately again. Life > SS and these forums. I was gonna work on it tonight, but seeing as some people would prefer to bash these forums and be a couple of !@#$%^&*hats, I may just wait til tomorrow and go out for a walk again tonight.
  19. My guest passes expired, or else I'd give you one.
  20. The way the casino works, is how I prefer it. You can't just go post, get money, lose it, go post, get money, lose it. It checks for new posts and registrations every so often after a set duration of time. I really found this kind of a nice feature, as when we had the arcade for money years back for a short while, people would make like 20 posts, and use the points or bank em before we deleted the posts, so they lost no money. Granted, they never lost the money banked or not, but it was more of a pain for us to sit down deleting posts, reseting money, etc. But this way, I have time to delete posts, or posts can be deleted, and you get no money for spam or stupidity. Plain and simple.
  21. I can't debug what I can't experience. Sometimes I have noticed it takes clicking a time or 2, or clicking elsewhere and then the cash out button for it to work. But otherwise, have yet to have this happen playing at IBPro and here.
  22. Do almost every year it has been on tv.
