  1. Update:  The ISP for the servers we're running on is having issues today.  They're saying to expect lower bandwidth than normal.  Everything on the server seems to be fine.  I gave it a restart as well since it's been a while.  If the problem persists for more than another day or two tops then I'll do some more digging.


  2. Running an oldschool computer should not have any effect on the site, as it's all rendered through a browser.  If your net connection was slow, that'd be a different story.

    As I'm typing this it took a good 15 seconds for the formatting icons to show up, so something may actually be going on.  I have some free time today so I'll dig into it.  For the time being make sure your preferred browser is up to date and understand that this site uses heavy javascript, so if you're running something like NoScript it'll pretty much make this place unusable.

    I'll update this thread after my investigation.


  3. I played it and ended up stopping right at Calamity due to the same issues you are facing.  It really didn't feel so much as a "let's bump the difficulty up" type of mod and more like a "let's torture you with ridiculously OP shit, even trash mobs" type of mod.

    It's a pity, because Xenogears is great but the vanilla game is just too easy.  If this mod was toned down just a little bit it would be glorious.

  4. Already posted this in chat but since that can't reach everyone in this community I figured why not start a thread.

    Anyone here play PUBG (PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds)?  Looking to get a few more people to play with.  If so, drop a line in this thread with usual play times (include timezone) and Steam ID so we can link up.

    There is only one rule that I ask anyone who plays a PUBG game with me:  Your character must never wear pants.

    You're welcome. You are only one of three 3 people at all positive in this community. At ... all ... In fact one of the few people to also put together just how damning the communities responses were, got threatened with evidence that amounted to no more than the same domain (gmail is one of the most common) and the same date joined, possibly back to back. If it were back to back then this suggests incredible foresight from the person. Perhaps he already knew the community was toxic (unlike me). In that case, he should be commended for sticking it out.

    I just want to point out that JKnox did in fact create another account simply to double-dip on the negative repping.  He had the same exact IP address.  That is different from the same domain and pinpoints it was the exact same computer that created both accounts.  My career is web development so I have a strong understanding of these things.

    Having been a part of this community for about 4 years now I can guarantee that it is not a toxic (except @Kyrios, he's a toxic piece of shit :bitch:) place.  If it was I would've been banned long ago on Insane Difficulty for calling out people's bullshit.  I enjoyed the community and people so much I created this place when Insane Difficulty was broken beyond repair and it was unable to be fixed.  You and JKnox seem to be the only ones thinking this place is toxic.  And most here know me enough that it takes a lot of stupid shit (on either side) being said in order for me to call someone out on it.  Half the time the community polices itself and staff doesn't need to do anything.

    Stop with the insults and let's put this shit behind us.

  6. @JKnox You made a completely understandable argument if this was TheRebalancer's first post.  I doubt many here would downvote your argument.  The key piece that I think you're missing is this isn't his first post.  He has basically come on board and complained that BNW is wrong because he can't do what he wants to with it.

    If he complained about the removal and mentioned it could've been spoilered instead it would've been completely reasonable.  What's funny is the OP even asked for spoiler tags.  This board isn't above sharing secrets and info, just do it the right way.  In response, TheRebalancer decided to make some insulting metaphors instead.  If we really rolled 1984 style you'd both be gone for disagreeing and all history of your presence removed.  After all, 2 + 2 = 5.

    @TheRebalancer You can disregard rep.  That's fine.  It is far from the end all be all here and it really isn't overly important.  However, it works as a general guidepost for how a member interacts with others.  What my original statement to you meant was that you've been rubbing a lot of people the wrong way in order for them to actively downrep you the way they have.  This isn't a circlejerk where people try to farm rep.  Isn't that serious.  But try to have some more situational awareness.  Sometimes it's not everyone else that's wrong.  Sometimes it's ourselves.

  7. Wanted to give everyone a heads up that I haven't been sitting on my thumbs these past few weeks.  I have finished up all of the back-end code for the tournament module.  Currently I'm working on the front-end, starting with brackets.  This is very basic html/css, as I'll be concentrating on functionality before making things pretty.

    That said, if anyone wants to get a sneak peek at the brackets so far head over to this link:  Bracket Generation Test

    I'll post more updates as progress continues.  Hoping to get this up before we start our first tournament.

    Let's insert some humor into this Orwellian nightmare: QUICK SHOVE IT DOWN THE MEMORY HOLE! We are at war with Eurasia. We have always been at war with Eurasia.

    BTB can correct me if I'm wrong, but your other post was redacted because it contained possible spoilers.  This isn't some 1984 shit, it's common decency and consideration for those who have yet to play the game.  If you used a spoiler tag it might not have been necessary to redact your post.

    I've been keeping an eye on your posts and they're a strange mix between incoherent and condescending.  As you were answered in your post about where the forum rules are that this place is not toxic, I'd advise you to not be toxic yourself.  I believe you're the first new member here to get smacked with a lot of negative rep, and that's a very rare thing.

    That said, do some self reflection and tone down the way you post and I'm sure you can turn things around.
