As hard as this is to admit, JDS is right. The only incentive to lure in new players at this point is by word of mouth to people you know. And with our aging population, it's very hard for most of them to go to their 20+ year old co-workers and friends and start off a conversation with "Hey, wanna go shoot little 32pixel characters on 10+ year old game?... I'm sure that'll go over well. Unless someone in the near future comes up with a gimmick to get more people to play (google advertisements or something) we're pretty well doomed. And by doomed, I mean lack of a large influx of players. I whole-heartedly believe the majority of players are so hard in their addiction to this game that SS will be alive for years to come. (provided something drastically stupid doesn't happen ^^)

Idiot of the year award.

I suppose I'll be hated for this, but I'm actually quite displeased. I own both an xbox, and a ps3 (as I'm a !@#$%^&*)... And I find that the PS3 sales (why now climbing) are near abysmal in the race between nintendo, microsoft, and sony. (Atleast in north america... apperently the ps3 sales world-wide are quite nice). Anyways, the Final Fantasy series one the corner stone in my opinion of the sony enterprise. You can always garuntee the addicts (like myself) would buy a system for that game. I would have if I didn't own a ps3. As would alot of people I know. I think in the whole Square Enix made the best call for their sales. While probably destroyed sonys hope of a christmas release to send the ps3 sales through to roof. All in all, It's probably the best coorperate move for sony. Whatever, I'll own a copy a week before it comes out. Bye now.

ipod touch for the win... update is kinda pissing me off. But all in all, worthy buy... People willing to blow the hundreds a month to use the iphone, instead of the free touch services, are morons though.

If viro gets active, we may not make last for once

Ha, ?message Kn|ght:Ban Ba$h please!

Haha, I just want anyone to shove their boot up Ba$h's over-packed squad this year Been awhile since any of those guys had an ego check XD

Saw the first one years ago. He's done a few trips now thanks to the stride gum company commercial. They asked for NOTHING in return either. Quite an amazing feet. Would love to go to even a fifth of the places he has been.

*nods* MG's only real "League" in my opinion. I may actually get off my !@#$%^&* for this one Look forward to ruling you all

The SSCC Server went down at midnight. I've left messages for both of the server admins, could be a bit. Please be patient. Thank you.

Hm, suffice to say it's a large-scale server issue, everything has been backed up regardless. I'll wait until freakmonger gets on and posts before I spew some uneducated re-hash of what I've been told. Server maintenance is not my speciality.

But their we are back into the grey area of access guidelines, and people like... oo this entire topic voice their opinions. I'm not against developers having access (atleast skilled ones)... but there is even a limit to that. We need clear cut guidelines BEFORE we start making exceptions, let's see how the forum goes before we try to ratify it for the future. Most people on this topic generally seem to think it's a bad idea. Atleast thats my take. Just let it develope a bit before we start over-complicating anything.

It's not ones pre-biller crash that arn't being removed, it's all in general. ?messages simply arn't going away, I'm up to 7 sitting there, it's quite annoying, but I think we can handle message spam until we get the biller back... or someone will fix it when they can't recieve them anymore
