  1. I know starting a new topic is not the best way to reply to a locked one, but since you addressed me, I'd like to answer to your points. Good, I don't know why JoeDirt would refuse to give any statement about it, but now there is one. After all I simply asked for clarification. 1. If you actually read my post, you would have noticed the parts about my saying that the private slots are based on the servers' private slots and that I think the number is unrealistic. 2. Good, I understand that. 3. Yes, I am aware of that and understand it. 4. Again, if you read the post, you would have noticed that I included forum support costs. Right above the image where it says "Okay, the missing $250 could be for forum support, potential new themes or any other costs.". 5. How many chargebacks have there been last year? 6. If you really pay 15€ for a simple VPS, then you probably pay for the wrong product. I remember having made a comparison for you a while ago. 15€ is quite expensive for a redirect server. However, be it 15€/$20 a month, it doesn't make that much of a difference either. Furthermore, I don't see how you would need three VPS for the redirects. 7. That's why I wrote "I have no numbers about that either, but I have a rough idea that it has at least three customers and I think it is safe to assume that each of them spends $30 a month for their server/s.". If I am that wrong, what is the correct amount of donations from your server business? 8. How long and at what cost? I doubt the price fluctuated between $1.25 and $1.50. 9. Exactly, you got both licenses for free. I don't see how this is relevant for this topic. 10. Fine, even though it is for =F|A=, I don't see much relevance here either. You run it on the same server, so the only thing, apart from domain costs, I could think of are forum support costs. Furthermore, what about the ad revenues? I imagine there are a few dollars from Google Ads as well. And what about donations from the website with the old system where they weren't added to the donation bar? After all, none of what you wrote explains that much of a difference in my calculations in my opinion. It might be $1000, $2000 or hell, even $3000 less, but can't be enough for you to be at a loss. I don't see how I manipulated anything here or made up wrong stats to provoke others. I was wondering about the costs, made up calculations from the earnings and expenses I know of or could think of, and asked for corrections or explanations. Yes, I never included PayPal fees. What are these? 4%? That would be somewhat around $360 in my calculations. Now what are the correct calculations? It's fine if it works out every year and probably not so good if it doesn't, but since you don't make any profit, why not list the earnings and expenses? Those with common sense don't have to look through my alleged lies, they will use their own brain and might actually ask themselves the same I do. EDIT: merged by corey
  2. I saw Baska was kind enough to hide my previous topic. Thank god I took a screenshot of it before it magically disappeared.
  3. Sorry to disappoint you then.
  4. Depending on your OS X version, you either have to manually download the silEnT-pk3 (i.e. silent-0.6.3.pk3) to /Users/snake/Library/Application Support/Wolfenstein ET/silent/ create an autoexec.cfg in /Users/snake/Library/Application Support/Wolfenstein ET/etmain/, setting r_colorbits to 32 and r_allowExtensions to 0 can't play at all because Mountain Lion is incapable of handling filenames with more than 31 characters in ET and dare isn't going to rename the menu file in order to fix the problem for Mac users
  5. You can download a pre-patched 2.60d here.
  6. A simple Google search for "cod4 mod ac130" reveals that you are probably talking about a mod called X4.
  7. Like SunLight wrote, you are a huge troll and lack even the simplest form of respect. It's a shame that two pages had to be wasted to discover that. SunLight explained the problem well enough for everyone to understand, there is no need to keep this up any longer. Nevertheless, your old account OuttaMyWay was deactivated one month ago for obvious reasons, yet you had nothing better to do than come back and stir things up. A deactivated account is no invitation to register another one. What a sad way of spending one's time.

  8. To be more specific, KP_up should be "8" on your keypad and KP_down should be "2", in case you don't have it labelled on your keyboard. ("4" being left and "6" being right)

  10. Do you really have to continue the gun "discussion" here? This is an entirely different topic. Get over it.
  11. Don't you get it? No. Case closed. And just for the record. You are wrong. Being in shoutcaster mode does not keep you from having the same XP in serverstatus requests as the person you are spectating. P.S. A feature is in no way related to the future.
  12. No. You've already been told that only members are allowed to be shoutcasters. And you definitely don't need a shoutcaster password to spot cheaters.
  13. The tl;dr version for people who are too lazy to read a few sentences: http://theoatmeal.co...ics/misspelling http://theoatmeal.com/comics/literally
  14. Because you appear to be such a charming person, are especially creative when it comes to names and quite obviously lack respect for our admins, I did you a favor and extended your ban to 180 days so you have half a year to annoy whoever gives a shit. Take the time to focus on school where they'll hopefully teach you some manners and show you how to act in front of adults. Don't bother making a proper unban request because the "f***ing idiots" who provide the server you play on prefer to play with "lownoobs" who aren't out of touch with reality, troll. P.S. I love how confident you are with getting unbanned.
  15. Rules: Bots are allowed. Must have a minimum of 50 kills to be eligible. Screenshots must show the final scoreboard at the end of the map with kills and deaths shown. Screenshots must be readable, i.e. not too dark or too small. In case of a KDR tie the winner with the most kills takes victory. (ex. 100-20 wins over 50-10 but 50-0 wins over 60-2) Please do not post your submission if someone already posted a screenshot with a higher KDR than you. Server name must be included or the post will be ignored. =F|A= servers only. This topic gets automatically locked on February 1 and is reserved for contest submissions. Everything else is considered spam and will be removed without comment. Good luck!
  16. Congratulations, Aigle, stabak, BlackBull, NoCell, Annibal, shorky', Saintmire and senso.
  17. If you follow the instructions in the "Tips" section, you won't need to copy your recorded demos in order to view them. Which would only leave you with one possible alias in case you need to view demos recorded by someone else.
  18. No, for cutting in on a truck, causing an accident and for driving away instead of staying and helping, while making fun of it and having a good laugh.
  19. In the background it's still a symbolic link and still executes the same commands. You just don't see them when using your shortcuts or the menu.
  20. The "Tips" section shows how to create a symbolic link or what one could consider a "folder alias" in order to avoid copying the files to view them.
  21. This will get you a smoother gameplay in terms of FPS, but will not change your ping or network performance. The only image a server sends to a client is a metaphorical one because the visual representation of the game does not happen on the server but on the computers of the players - because if it did, it would be simple video streaming. The server sends game state updates which the clients analyze. They then update their views based on the information they extrapolated from the received updates. You could lower your graphic settings if you have a high ping, but it won't give you a smoother gameplay and would still lag if you have a big delay in receiving server messages. If you have a low ping and lag on the other hand, then lowering the graphics will help you immensely.
  22. I always thought changing graphic settings affects your FPS, not the ping and network throughput, since it's a game and not video streaming.
