Hope you're feeling good and having fun, good luck to you. -Harry

I agree with Jazzy and Havok. Removing Cometchat and possibly the chatbox would be a good thing. The in that spot, it can be a link to a web-IRC client or even embed it. Reasons why IRC is better: 1) Easier to moderate. 2) Almost never goes offline (most networks have tons of servers running to handle it). 3) Runs quick - Easy to setup. 4) Will require no load on the forums server (in fact, it would probably REMOVE a lot of load that is currently being used by Cometchat/CBox). 5) More "open" - you can communicate to it via anywhere that has an IRC client. You can also read through old messages that don't expire every 24 hours like cchatbox does. Reasons why IRC would be frowned upon: 1) Some people consider it a bit harder. It does have a bit steeper learning curve than cchatbox, but once you get used to it (a few minutes), it's a piece of cake. 2) Can't think of anything else. A bit offtopic I guess, but it would be a wonderful change in my opinion.

This should only apply to the forums, and not the servers. The servers technically not collecting any info that would violate COPPA, but the forums are. Eh. It applies to the servers..since it's located in US. Why on Earth will anyone need to tell his/her age while playing a game? RE: Right. I meant, will it be like "oh, someone has a squeaky voice", then they get harassed with questions "how old are you", etc., thus incriminating themselves. Eh.

Ban appeals are going to be private now? It's nice with them being public. It's a private matter....and under no circumstances will we allow comments on 'moderation' on the forum. If you have an issue, you have the option of reporting it to the top tier members, including me..... RE: It isn't a moderation question, I am just curious how it would be handled. It should be a public manner, really... a user gets banned from the public server, the public should get to read what they say about it.

What is with the new dates on the forums? ("11 minutes ago", instead of "7:45 PM", etc), and can it be reverted? Some new setting or what? Only real question I have. European Date System might work...

I hope COD never dies. Not that I prefer COD over Battlefield, but so all the COD kids stay at COD :v. Anyways, been posted before.

I would RDM Afamad and not get banned.

Knifing isn't that much different. It's impossible to "not get blocked" when you're playing with tons of people on your team who suck at moving and on a small map.

Noblock would be nice, really. Teammates block, rage ensues, people quit.

Tons of Flash+Javascript :[ I am. It looks nice, but a simple layout is better than flash-filled stuff (which doesn't work on some platforms/browsers, etc) Thanks for answering questions though.

Still would be nice for the general public to at least hear a hi from him, heh. Yay. I mean I don't know anything about your guy's project, or how you even make money (how do you, minus ads, if I may ask?).

I am really sad. I am a pessimist, yes, but it certainly doesn't make me feel good when the person buying it has 77 posts (all which I can not access for some reason), and hasn't even introduced himself to the community they are buying... Oh well. If the rules and servers stay the same (maybe an even better dedi?), it would be cool. If the rules or servers are changed too much, I'll be really sad. I know it's probably going to be plastered with ads (checking out the other forums they own), but if it isn't a huge change... :/ Thanks for the work you did, but I still feel like I have to agree with Potshot. I have no idea what goes on behind the scenes however. I guess it's for the best. And I really hope it stays nonprofit for the most part, no "pay monthly to get admin" -- that always attracts scum.

Ok Bye.

Just tell him to PM TheVirus and he will take care of it. The same thing happened to starbucks., they removed the firewall block, and he could reconnect.

Seriously, it's not him. He has 8 different bans on that IP, and the real garry's Steam ID is STEAM_0:1:7099.

What?

Boobcake's is cooler of a dog.

He already has a name, hover your mouse over it for a few seconds.
