Nice Xuthos. Hope you make it in :D

I think that the inside would look a bit better if the stained glass window had a frame on it though.

I wish I still had the photos from some guys 21st birthday thread.
His brother got him a hooker so he had her give him a lewinsky... while he continued to play WoW.
Many laughs were had at his expense.
I also cried a little. And not because of the laughing.

He's like me. :( "Why have love when I can play videogames and get some real achievements!?"

Don't forget to give information.

ie What does it stand for? What are you about? Why are you making the clan? etc.
At the very least, basic information. Don't just go "i mak clan lol you join?"

So I was on the Dedicated earlier with Light. Have left my Open House Concept there (Made it a little after Slick left) and light was saying I should make it in.. It's small though (only about 400 bricks total D:)

I'll build something larger if needed, but I don't tend to save much unless it's a wip that I "plan on finishing" (ie save then delete when I purge my saves folders).

My name's Clockturn/ID 4332.
Just dropping in. Say hello and all that.. I'll wait for confirmation on it before I add the tag.

Drama / Re: Why does everyone hate furries?

« on: July 07, 2008, 05:59:43 AM »

Well, from a fairly neutral standpoint (I was into furry for a while myself) I can honestly say that most people hate 'furries' for the occasional excessive drama whore that comes along. You'll see, if you read a furry forum, that indeed a lot of honest and good posts are made even through the anti-fur trolling that inevitably invades every furry forum. Eventually, some anti-furs may build up a fair amount of respect for certain furries and even respect for the fandom as a whole, but then you get one person who will come along and ruin all that with their "ogm ist our rights to yiff cigarettes lolz" and pathetic attempts to justify what they do rather than not bringing it up at all and being treated like anyone else. This pretty much breaks the peace and it begins an endless cycle (which is often repeated several times in a single day).

Of course, to simplify that:
tl;dr there's always one who's an absolute friend.

Suggestions & Requests / Re: [Request] Night/Day Script

« on: July 07, 2008, 05:44:10 AM »

You can do it with the editor. Change the skybox, fog, realsun lighting, and sun flare (if it has one).
I think you could do it all with a script but it would only work if you built it into the map.

Thing is I'm not sure how F11 does with networking (like sending the updates to the players).

Suggestions & Requests / Re: minimap on hud

« on: July 05, 2008, 05:52:19 AM »

That has nothing at all to do with why it's not being made. You'd have to constantly send the positions of everything to the minimap. That means players, bricks, vehicles, etc. Also, it may be impossible to detect certain interiors, such as the bed legs in Bedroom.

Damn you and your technical perspective!
Okay yeah, that's a given. If the minimap were only the size of your draw distance then theoretically you could get it from clientside data but... bleh. I'm not in the mood to argue. D: that means you win by default.

Actually it would be nice to have it if you could change on the server whether or not certain things show on it (ie Players, Vehicles, Items, etc), whether or not you can see things that aren't visible from directly above (ie things that are covered by bricks or are under interiors), the altitude of the minimap 'camera' (how high it floats above the player).
And of course whether or not it's enabled at all, and also have a clientside display toggle.
That'd be good, in my personal opinion, although others may differ.
This post isn't deliberate flamebait lul

Games / Re: EA's new anti-piracy...thing.

« on: June 25, 2008, 02:39:01 AM »

Steam is a "heavy" program and the load times are huge. I mean, just starting up HL2 or Gmod or any of their products requires updates and authentications and the like. To me that is more of an inconvenience than just letting the computer send and receive an authentication communique.

Actually, really it's only sending and receiving a series of authentication packets to my knowledge. It checks if there's any updates, checks to see if your Steam account is in use elsewhere, checks to see that your Steam account owns the game you're starting, then starts. Plus, all this ensures that there is less or even no piracy on a lot of games.

Plus I see no problem with waiting a few seconds. Then again, I'm a lot more patient than most people.

Lol it took me two and a half days to remember this topic. Maybe I should stay banned O_o

Anyway does anyone know why I was actually banned? Clockturn ID 4332 reason shown as "the right to be here has been lost!". I dunno what I did wrong. Obviously, banned from the USSR Dedicated.
