  1. Another review. by TheFlu · · Score: 2, Informative · on Max Payne 2 Reviewed

    There's another review here.

  2. Money? by TheFlu · · Score: 1 · on I, Spammer

    Just how much money are these guys making? According to the story linked here, the spammer who was sued by Earthlink recently sent "...more than 10 million spams over a three-month period generated a mere 36 sales - $360 in commissions for efforts."

    I'm not sure how much most of you guys make, but where I'm from, $360.00 over three months doesn't sound like a get rich quick scheme. I guess some of these spammers are making big bucks though. *shrug*

  3. Ironical by Yoda2 · · Score: 1 · on Announcing Games.slashdot.org

    Just last week, NerdTreeHouse, a popular gaming site, started posting tech news.

  4. N.E.R.D. by Yoda2 · · Score: 2 · on Game Developers Cracking Down on Cheating

    The servers at NerdTreeHouse do an excellent job of detecting and banning cheaters. The resident CS guru, Village, really stays on top of things so people that play on the N.E.R.D. servers tend to return.

  5. Carnivore Attacks Gaming Websites Too by Jabberjab · · Score: 2, Interesting · on FBI Carnivore Screwup Destroys E-Mail Evidence

    Is Carnivore still around? I heard they were tracking gaming websites, particularly those that involve terrorists and counter-terrorists. Counterstrike is not only the number one online game right now, but there are many websites revolving around it. For example, NerdTreeHouse is a huge haven for Counterstrike fans and I heard the FBI requested information from them. I'm not sure what happened.

  6. Oh Boy! by Yoda2 · · Score: 0, Offtopic · on Matrox Parhelia 512 Preview

    Bet CounterStrike will cruise on that puppy!!!

  7. Mod the Mod by Yoda2 · · Score: 2 · on Mods: "Lifeblood of Gaming Industry"?
    N.E.R.D. is an online gaming community that provides players with tons of statistics & customizations for Counter-Strike which is a mod of Half-Life.

    It is all the mods to the mod that has made it one of the largest Counter-Strike communities in the world!

  8. What about a movie based on a website? by Jabberjab · · Score: 2, Funny · on Burrough's Martian Tales Optioned

    Sometimes these movies just don't turn out. Why not make a movie based on website? Can you imagine what a movie about Slashdot or NerdTreeHouse would look like? I want movies based on websites! Are you with me?

  9. Some aren't going to jump off the java wagon yet.. by Jabberjab · · Score: 1 · on Trouble Ahead for Java

    Java is certainly not going anywhere. Java is the very thing that allows some companies to be in business. For example, NerdTreeHouse is a company that uses 90% Linux and 10% BSD to power the entire company. Basically, they provide gaming servers to highschool and college kids. Without Java, the company won't be around.

  10. Stop the regulations... by Kloggerythangy · · Score: 1, Interesting · on FCC Petitioned to Restrict 2.4GHz Band

    But doesn't this affect data networks? I mean over at NerdTreeHouse they are setting up a huge wireless data network that sounds sweet. What would happen if we all just did this?

  11. Maybe my grandchildren will see the result of this by Kloggerythangy · · Score: 1 · on 25 More States Oppose MSFT Antitrust Dismissal

    I just hate the fact that the people involved have know idea what's really going on. I mean, without Microsoft, we wouldn't have a lot of cool things (albeit, a few bad things too). Just look at how Microsoft has raised the bar for consumer level computers and graphics. I can easily jump onto a site like NerdTreeHouse and play a sweet 70 frames per second. Linux could never do that. Of course, the irony is that Linux servers power the backend of the graphics app. Hahahah.

  12. What a terrible approach to build game interest! by Yoda2 · · Score: 4, Insightful · on EFF Takes Bnetd Case
    Yikes!

    It is these gaming communities that build interest in the games, add features, etc. These enthusiasts dump untold hours into improving games and this is how the software companies reward them?

    I have some ties to N.E.R.D., the worlds 3rd largest CounterStrike server and would venture to guess that 90+% of the gamers happily paid for their software. The community only gets better when Sierra Games backs the gaming centers.

  13. Linux Companies Can Get Too Big... by Anonymous Coward · · Score: 1 · on LinuxCare & TurboLinux Finalize Merger
    I have never actually used LinuxCare. I think we will be seeing a lot more of these mergers in the next few months. I think maybe we can compare the Linux business to the "search engine" business from the late 90's. When search engines first came out, they were pure and corporate America was left out. The search engines did what they were supposed to do. Things have changed. I typed in "Jeep Grand Cherokee" into Yahoo and got only one response (Yahoo's Guide to Cars). Now thats not right. To make a long analogy short, does this mean once the Linux companies get real big we will have to start registering our software and entering codes during the install?

    NerdTreeHouse: It's NOT nerd news.
