Eastenders isn't as over dramatic as this.....

Drama queen.

Dont like it, Click "Log Out" in the top right.

Quote from garph :

I thought phlos did loads of things to the game and with servers he shouldn't have done? You're just argumentative, this is the second pointless argument I've seen that you just won't let go off.

I know the forum can really get on my nerves and it can, some times, get difficult to let things go but guy come on enough is enough, you're not going anywhere with this.

Phlos did do loads of stuff that he shouldnt have done, Was sure fun tho

I acutally did stop my arguement before Sam decided to land his big foot in this thread.

Quote from SamH :

Nothing to do with me, an LFS moderator, on the LFS forum? You jest, I'm sure.

You'll do what you want to do, Sean. I have no doubt about that. You're entirely responsible for the way other people perceive you. Sadly, I think you're making a lasting impression

I will, Dont worry about that. Same as if I wanna chuch myself infront of the nearest train, I will!

E: Maybe I'll end up another one like Phlos, Who knows...

*sigh* getting invloved with something thats nothing to do with you, but ok.

Quote from SamH :

Listen to yourself, Sean You stated the obvious, several times now, because you're annoyed at Scawen because he hasn't plugged the hole in the timeframe that YOU decided he had to. You didn't get flamed at all. Not even remotely.

Not because Scawen hasnt fixed it in my time frame atall, I sent Victor the hack a long time ago, After I conned a demo'er out of it.

Quote from SamH :

The fact that you have a very, very short fuse is an issue that you have to resolve yourself, but to subject the forum to your anger and frustration is another thing altogether. Reel it in, Sean. You know you need to. If you do post your tantrums, don't expect them to go unaddressed by moderators.

I dont expect that, Moderators can do what they want. So far in these last few pages, I have not gone out of the boundry of the rules, So what are you gonna do now?

Quote from SamH :

I don't actually believe you. You wanted to argue because that is your mindset, and still are doing. Reading back through what's been written, it is YOU who created this little tornado of yours.

Not only me acutally, I cant argue with myself.

Quote from SamH :

It affects everybody's enjoyment of the game while these cheats are out there. It's obvious. But I'm not congratulating you on stating it.. god forbid you target ME for your next tirade! I don't think I could take it!

Aww, Didums...

Quote from SamH :

Seriously, Sean, if coding for LFS InSim makes you resentful of LFS or the community then I sincerely mean it when I say DON'T do it. I remember Ciph going off on a tantrum when not enough people thanked him for writing his code. We don't want to see repeats of that kind of behaviour. Nobody should do anything they don't want to do, and coding for LFS is best when done by people who do it for the love of the game, NOT for glory.

Coding isnt making me resentful of lfs, Im doing it because I can and because I like LFS. All, Im saying is that these hackers make me want to stop. If you want me to stop, Say the word. I'll cancel all my plans now, Makes no difference to me...

i just can't remember the thing to do so,

See this

Quote from the_angry_angel :

The reason for the "rude words" was simply that putting it in plain english isn't working.

It is, but when you say.. "Congratulations on pointing out the obvious?

No one said that the barricade was the perfect solution. It's better than **** all else though."

You really expect me to sit here and be spoken to like a mug? I dont think so. I posted a simple post, I get flammed.

Quote from the_angry_angel :

If you believe this is an argument then you're mistaken. There's been a relatively polite discussion.

If you feel otherwise then I apologise as thats not how I have been posting in this thread.

Thats fair enough, I never wanted to argue. Just put a simple point across.

Quote from the_angry_angel :

I've not said it's wrong. I've not typed anything that can infer it's wrong. I do not understand how you can come to that conclusion.

I agree that it needs to be fixed, and if this were a remote code execution issue then I'd be shouting louder than anyone else that it's a priority and should be immediately fixed. However, what I've been trying and failing to explain is that it's just a huge pain in the arse at the moment. But critical? The only people who it's critical to at the end of the day are the developers. They are the ones who ultimately suffer from cheats through loss of business. If they've decided how quickly or not quickly to fix the problem, then it's up to them?

It effects people like us, because when you race in lfs, and you see constant hackers. You sit there and think, "Why do I even bother....". You know? Makes you wanna think, "**** this game".

E: This also effects me in other ways. Im making programs for lfs to make servers better. Making the game have more options. Doing little things Scawen hasnt got time to do. It makes me think, "Why...".

Quote from the_angry_angel :

I'll spell it out then..

What good is moaning going to do? The developers are aware of this issue and are working on it in some way, shape or form. Moaning and griping about it isn't going to change the situation or speed up the fix.

Accept that this is out of our control and then learn to live with it for now.

I am living with it, I dont care tbh, I just think it should be fixed if LFS is still gonna stay a good game.

Quote from the_angry_angel :

Understand that it's not life or death. Cheer the **** up. Stop being a miserable ****.

Nice personal attack there,

Quote from -- LFS Forum Agreement -- :

1) When I post a message on this forum, I will do my very best to write in a polite manner and not use foul language and / or insult an individual or group of people.

Congratulations on braking a forum agreement, Moderator!

Quote from the_angry_angel :

Yes it's relatively prevelant amongst certain people in the community, but if you care that much about keeping things clean. I mean seriously really care, then you'll have people watching over your server(s) regularly anyway.

You've been told that posting replays is allowed. What more do you want aside from a fix? A work around is the best that can be done for the moment.

You seem to have somehow turned my little response on the last page into a massive agruement. All I said was it needs to be fixed by the creator of the game, After all, this is his job. Somehow you seem to think its wrong though....

Quote from kiss me :

thought so too bad it doesnt work with vb 2008, i cant get it to work via 2008

Its C#, And its only a modified version of this

Quote from the_angry_angel :

Maybe I put the paragraph spacing in the wrong place there. I fear you've either misread or misinterpreted my point. But lets leave it at that.

Sounds like a good idea, You knew I was right all along.

Quote from the_angry_angel :

My point was that being altruistic, polite and upbeat is not in my nature..

Quote from the_angry_angel :

If you feel that's how you can best serve the community then yes

Why does Shaun always act like hes imbarrised?

Quote from chanoman315 :

no lol, wasnt banned because everyone lol was flaming him lol.

It was locked because lol he told mods to lock it lol.

Whats with all this lol? The thread was prolly locked as I reported it as a flame fest, not because he told mods to.

Quote from the_angry_angel :

You've misinterpreted my meaning here. There was no threat, just a simple confession that I'm finding it hard not to fill my posts with ****, **** and bastard, or just saying "you smell funny" or "so's your face" and then leaving it at that.

Awww, Tough old world isnt it.

Quote from the_angry_angel :

I actively encourage you to post replays of offenders.

OK, These are just _some_ ive got from this very forum.

Must I continue......?

Quote from the_angry_angel :

The DEMO has always had problems. LFS as a whole has seen wreckers, cheaters, drifters and a whole host of other things.

I agree to that, but not to the extent where every server is impossible to race on.

Quote from the_angry_angel :

Whilst I rarely get in servers these days I can tell you that things like this tend to happen in cycles. I've been around LFS longer than most so I can remember most of the exploits, arguments and other issues over the recent years. So you'll have to please forgive me if I'm not quite as frantic or concerned about the situation as I apparently should be?

I'm not saying that I know everything that goes on because I obviously don't, and I'll happily admit that. However the DEMO has always been a problem and by it's nature it's been uncontrollable. The changes have that been introduced recently in test patches should help significantly to give DEMO racers a little bit of accountability and should help stem this behaviour.

Maybe you need to wake up a little, Seen as LFS is prolly the most popular race sim around, Or should I say...was?

Quote from the_angry_angel :

I'm not here to defend sides and I obviously can't comment for the developers. The moderation team know nothing more about the development of LFS than the general public. However, I am here to keep the peace, so don't mistake me for being a fanboy or eternally optimistic. It's not in my nature. Nor is being polite.

Ahh, I see. Cant be nice, Nor polite, So you will just threat. Great idea! Im really scared.

Quote from the_angry_angel :

I've also been getting a faint itching between a pair of my toes. I thought it was just atheletes foot, but it could be I'm due for some travel perhaps?

Fire away, Maybe as far away from the UK as possible?

Quote from the_angry_angel :

No one has said that it's not gone on long enough, but I'm trying to put it in perspective.

An annoyance it is, but end of the force it is not.

If the community deam that any work on a barricade system is a waste of time I'll happily stop working on it. I've got other things I'd rather do, quite frankly.

Whilst your barricade might be a good idea, As I said above. It doesnt hide the fact LFS has a big hole that needs fixing, Or else it will hurt LFS.

OK, Let me tell you something. Demoers like to have a few racing tests before downloading the game. I know, I did for 3 months. Currently on Patch Y demo (As advertised on LFS.Net!) You goto a demo server and you cannot race for love nor money. There is a hacker in every server. Now, Please tell me, Would you buy a game if that was the first impression?

Im just saying, I sent this hack to Victor a long time ago, and still nothing has been done. Makes no difference to me, I rarely play now anyway....

Oh, Im also not the only one thinking this is been going on for too long. Look at birders post...

Im not saying this in a bad way, but people making stuff to report hackers still doesnt hide the fact lfs has a hole in it. Which should be fixed, I have no clue why it isnt already tbh.

How often does it happen? Are there any signs of a pattern?

One thing I will say, How much are you sending at a new user? Judging by that, You have a full server. It could be you are sending so much data with all the people driving, and then the 32nd connection just happened to make LFS spurt the insim out.

Quote from shaun463 :

IMO this is pontless. Why not just use the cruise tutorial which worked for me as an InSim tutorial.

Disassemblers are your friend. This IS the cruise tutorial, Just smartened up a bit.

Also, Why not make the admin pass and insim port selectable? It would make it better and easier in the long run.

Quote from dev :

And where exactly is the problem with www.lfs.net??

LOL, Have you seen the date of that post you quoted?

Quote from Nock44 :

How can I not read them, they are on my thread...

Not _your_ thread. This is a public forum. Everyone with an S2 licence has as much right to post as you.

The server move has also killed half this forum, Look at a page with CTRA userbars and it never loads...

Quote from _EvoLuTioN_ :

Because a "Programmer" has made the insim

OK - Great idea dude, Im now gonna release all my programs in the programmers forum. JUST because, I(A PROGRAMMER) made them.

Also, Maybe Scawen will now release all the test patchs in the programmers section too, Just because a programmer made them.

Sam, Some of your threads just lately are starting to bug me. Why the heck do you want to know about driving at 15? Maybe think about a moped or something? Its completely useless you learning anything now. By the time you come to do your test it will be different. Please wait untill a few months before your 17th(Maybe 18th), Then start getting info.

Attention seeker, *sigh*.

ROFL @ Your sig James.

Quote from Heiko1 :

lol thats the complete WRONG code ^^

LMFAO
ROFLCOPTER !!!

LoL

ok sry for that but i can help ya
if you ask me NICE

Was that helpfull? No it wasnt. If you remember correctly, I got your 'km' working in your insim app. So dont try and "show off" to sun with something you didnt do.
