You tart you should learn to read better I said: "As for people who use game glitches, well, your sorta right there, but people over bitc$ about this too.." and you actually said: "That is cheating. You are taking advantage of a glitch in the system." So you are disagreeing with me, but you are saying the same exact thing... Comprehension wasn't your fortay at school I assume?
"p.s. Would I be right in guessing that you are under 25 years old... you don't actually remember this stuff, it's just what you think you know, right ?
"
Funny you should say that, I know some under 25's that had pre XT computers (read less then 8 mhz). Think about it, yes they would have been around 8-10 yrs old, but so what? It really isn't rocket science to load using a boot disk, now is it??
Bullshit man, which temp agency? I'll look it up myself, but my guess is your comprehension skills are lacking. That said, do you really think a contract like that to a TEMP agency would be legally binding? By definition your not even WORKING for them, your a TEMP.
Trust me your wrong. Any experienced GOOD player does not use scripts, they always interfere. I can switch weapons, fire, jump, etc.. faster then any script can, and I can change my mind in the middle and abort, whereas a script, you can't. As for people who use game glitches, well, your sorta right there, but people over bitc$ about this too.. As far as taking "advantage of the map", that statement is just plain wrong, if your a good player, you SHOULD take advantage of your knowledge of the map, if your good, you will still be able to defeat these players (and possibly use it to your advantage, by knowing what that player is going to do next..). What I really hate are people that accuse people of cheating simply because that someone is MUCH better then themselves. Those people ruin games.
9600 was blazing fast compared to my 1200.:D TradeWars, and LORD were good. But NOTHING, and I mean NOTHING, has, or probably will ever, beat BRE/SRE. Inter-BBS wars rule! I remember taking the source from Teleguard and re-writing the Telix BBS terminal with some of it's source to come up with my grand 'ole BBS, nothing like it on this side of the pirate world.
How about this:
Can you define:
TDT, THG, RZR, etc.. etc.. 0-1 day warez during it's finest days.
Try playing Counter-Strike. Once you've seen the 10th person walk through a wall, fly over your head, or hit you in the head from all the way across the map with a handgun, you'll get the idea. Try playing DOD (HL mod too), it's way better. I can get a score of 100-20 on DOD without cheating, but most people are 1-1 types..
Great post! That's the one problem with getting my friends into online games, they always suck when they start, and rarely last more then 30 seconds.
You mentioned some issue's with Counter-Strike. Well I'd like to point your attention to Day Of Defeat - another HL mod. You don't wait more then 15 seconds before re-spawning, you have the option of viewing through teammates eyes (if enable on the server). It's simply amazing. DOD V1 is retail, you can buy it in stores for under $30 and then download any other HL mod. I really can't say enough good things about this game, I've been playing it for 3 years (since the beginning!) and have never grown bored of it
Although it sometimes happens, Team Killing is not much of an issue on DOD as FF=OFF is mostly set, and Team Killers are normally banned quickly and permenantly. I agree with you, Day Of Defeat is simply the best online game, and has been for the past 3 years.
This is a half-life mod similar to Counter Strike, only 1000 X's better. It does not have the cheating issue's that CS has. I have been playing it since the release of Half Life, and it is amazing. Everyone that plays it with me is instantly hooked. I can't say enough good about this game. I have been a gamer since Sierra's earliest days (yes, I still have my original copy of Police Quest 1.).
You need to re-read there agreement, it doesn't say that they own everything you do, it says on there TIME they own. As for this: "design/manufacture/proceedures", because your a TEMP they HAVE to say this, basically it's happened before, that a TEMP has come up with a new way to do the job he was assigned, and the company liked it and started using it, so he sued saying he should get money since it was his idea, yadda yadda yadda..
If your taking a job for under $10 a hour, you are going to get NO WHERE fast trying to make them change there contract. Your a dime a dozen man think about it..
Since verbal contracts are binding, why not just be truthful with the employer and mention to him that run your own business on the side "here's what we do", and stuff. Let him know this is something you do on YOUR TIME, not HIS! If he agree's, you're covered (check local state policies of course).. Besides, unless your idea makes you millions your employer definitely isn't going to spend $$$ chasing it. If your idea could be worth real money, you really should put a PATENT on it BEFORE they hire you..
In case you didn't notice, that was a joke people!! I'm actually from the "Western World" (I think.. Personally, I always though we all lived on the same world..)
1. No.
2. We've looked up to Americans for years. It feels wonderful to finally enjoy the same rights. Driving down conditions for the Western world, well, how does the western world feel about the conditions in Iraq? Or even India for that matter??
3. Yes. Start making cheap clothing and drugs again, unlike you Amercians, we are already use to being poor, so it's no big deal..
LOL, I posted this when the original/. article came out (before this dupe) last week.. I believe the original was released in '93 and support was discontinued in '95ish.. Anyone remember THG, TDT, RAZOR 1911 (still around, no? Hey Dutchman, I thought I saw u here! Remember me?), etc. etc.. The best thing about VCL was that it WASN'T a batch "trojan" creator, it actually created real stuff, in the language of ur choice. I learned asm 8086 from VCL! LOL!
Well I guess that makes you sub-moron.. You need to indent new paragraphs. And as for using proper grammer and spelling, can you point me to the dictionary definition of "sub-moron".. Also, maybe you'd be so kind as to highlight my spelling errors? And for that matter any grammer errors? Just looking at my post the only thing I noticed was not creating proper paragraphs, which seems to be your issue as well...
At least I don't double-space everything..
Just wait until the counter suits begin after SCO loses.. SCO will be driven under, and IBM's share (after taking a small hit) would be in a good position to climb. In fact, timing that right you might be able to make a pretty penny.;)
Your post speaks a lot of truth!
"Instead, if they spent their time tinkering with the internals of a Linux Kernel or coding other cool stuff (like, Scene graphics programs, for instance!) it would be a much better use of their time and enthusiasm."
The reason is simple, they can get the information more readily on VB then the linux kernal. The information needs to be out there, easy to find, and there have to be people willing to learn. One thing that seperates these "kids" from us "adults" is the way they share information with each other, and don't give a crap about money.
The future, professor, the future. Be aware that many of today's finest IT professions/programming created DOS viruses as kids. Of course that sounds crazy, but one of the ways to get kids interested in computers, is to tell them it's wrong, just like sex, drugs, and rock & roll. Maybe it's time to try something different other then "burn them at the stake", as this will just want them to "give the finger to man" even more.

I give the mod a +1 funny for modding that post informative. I thought i was a dumb post, until I saw the score, thanks for the laugh /. mod!

I've been playing for 3 years, since version 1.3b. I own the map dod_avalanche. If you see me online it'll be under "JustJk [Canada]".

"C:\windows\TEMPORARY INTERNET FILES\" Those were the easy ones.. :D
