Well if he plays in the BL he would get 1 warning and then would be banned from the BL and maybe other parts of the *DAMN website as well.

Bye,

Mauti

Doesnt Netfone have login and pass options? Try switch your ports to make ur line more secret. Also lock everything u can ect.... thats my best advice. Theirs always some one out trying to ruin it for others.

Come on flies, I know your smarter than this. After the first time you should have used the login and password option that netfone offers. At least use it when in clan battles and only give the pass to your clanmates. Now there is no problems and no spectulation as to why there was lag. (well, at least untill another excuse comes :O )

Another question. How do you know someone was connected to your netfone? Did you see another name in the list? If so why didnt you screen shot it?

Better yet get the idiots ip....

Voodoo...

That happened to us last season in the begining (maybe it was DEA season 3)... You can just hear people calling you while in game... and you cant restart the game because your the host and the other team might think its something fishy...

I have heard of a few people doing this before this season started, which im not going to name names....

Only thing i can say is use the login/pw system.... dont change ports if you would like to connect to others on netfone....


For all of you computer OSX geeks can you tell us if there is a way to check ips? Maybe and ip logger? list all ips connecting to the NF ports?

Double click their name in NF.

symantec personal firewall.

easy to use, simple to configure.  logs all ip connections and attempts.  also allows you to block individual ip's on a port by port basis.

great way to ban any annoying user with multiple gameranger ids.

pyro

Yeah. Use that.

I have it, and its really useful.

Makes taking the trash out a lot easier..

hehe - J

lol hazard. yet you are so right. LOL if someone conntects to you on NF then u just double click on their name to show ip.. rather simple don't ya think. IF problem persists with the most annoying one then activate 'name passowrd etc' acess to nf.. ie no gues users... Its kinda simple

We use name and passwords for the tards in this community.

     Yeah, just set up logins and a clan password, then when you're going into a CB, disable "allow guest connections". Then, only people who are in your address book and have a login and password can connect to you.

Flies, it doesn't matter whether they have a static ip or not, when you set up an acct with somebody on nf, it doens't go by their ip, it goes by the outgoing login

so, for example, if their outgoing login is joe and their pass is asdf, it doesn't matter whta their ip is so long as they use joe and asdf, the account works for any ip.

Meaning, if you set up an acct with any person, you can use that one login for your whole clan, they can all use the outgoing login of joe and the pass asdf

I dont think we as BL admins should be involved in this at all. Your asking us to be baby sitters, GameRanger Police. Thats total bs. We have to deal with enough already and now you guys want us to deal with a few bad apples that connect to your netfone while in a cb. If it happened to me i wouldn't take my problem here, I would just take care of it myself as Pyroman did.

And Flies, you seem to be flaming more and more these day, why dont you take it down a notch for us ok bud.

oi

I dont think flies is flaming at all... if he were to come on saying how ghr is gay because we argue about replays... maybe we should tell him to knock it down a few steps...

But as i see it he posted his views and then responded to his replies.... all without the FLAME that some people tend to bring to these forums


I plead the 5th...


I mean flies has a serious complaint which most of us know a few players CHILDISH enough to do stupid shit like that....

Basically look at it as a warning to all clans, stupidity is out there... so dont be caught with your pants at your ankles...

The best thing to do is to setup a username and password for all your friends, and then one for your clanmembers (all being identical) and then turn of allowing incoming connections.  You could change the port as long as you forward that port to the certain IP address AND change it in netfone.

We just had the same prob is our cb against one. severl peeps kept nfing me and others in my clan that were in the cb. I think i know who it was.. but im not saying any names here b/c i cant be for sure.

Again, I will say use the username and password option that netfone offers. >:(

During a recent NF attack this is the ip that my norton personal fire wall looged the most (about 15 times in a row witch is how many times i was connected to). Im not saying its the offenders ip. but one to check out. 68.70.226.230

rgr that, another one to check out would be 130.113.193.61

this idiot was caught also using the NF attack.  So plz take note and maybe, finally, this will stop.  I feel for my guys that had to deal with these fools online.

Ok lemurs... First of all... NF is overrated. Second of all... use a damn password... Third... DON'T USE NETFONE! BUY PREMIUM! IT IS A HELLUVA LOT BETTER!

Why?
Because it saves bandwith!
You needen't connect to anyone!
If someone attacks you vocally, you know it is someone on the other team.
It has way better sound quality.
It supports Scott Kevill's hard work!

There is NO excuse for not buying premium. AT ALL! If you think it's too expensive, you're a false ass! Don't you buy games that you only play for 2 months? I bet you can pay the same amount of money for something that gives you joy for a year. If you DON'T buy games at all then you can afford it anyhow.

OK i have had alot of probs out of the premium chat. NF is better b/c you dont have to push anybuttons to talk. And premium chat will not work for os 9 users. Untill evill makes mouse buttons assignable for the chat button i will continue to use nf. i like the premium chat is cool. but not yet ready for full cb use.

Premium Voice Chat is not a suitable replacement for NetFone.  I don't know if it was intended to be that way, but it certainly is not.  You can always bind one of your mouse buttons to chat, but if you go into a CB and use this new premium feature, you can't just chat with the people on your team.  When you are in the player setup room, you talk to everyone.  Makes for interesting conversations during CB's... you know... those conversations when everyone is deciding what map to pick and which kit to choose.  Those little tid bits of information wouldn't be private anymore.  Only what you say during the game can be private, not before the game.

That's a strange argument, given that NetFone doesn't work in-game for OS 9 users either...


Not so, Noto. The team voice channel works in the player setup lobby as well. So long as you've assigned your team. The moment you assign yourself to a team, it works. In fact, not being assigned to a team in the lobby is like a team in itself.

Scott.

pwned.

actualy we have a guy (hooks) who is on os 9 and his nf works fine in game.

Interesting, I wonder if that's just GhR then. I had heard that it didn't work.

Scott.

I have to play in OS 9, because my OS X resets my router when I'm playing ghost recon... So I can't use the ingame voice communication, although I'm a premium member. But I can still use nf on my OS X comp to talk to the ppl of my clan.

When I get this problem sorted (which only occured after the gameranger update) I'll use the ingame voice communication for fun. But I need to fix the problem first, because I can't take  the risk crashing out in the middle of a CB.

Wow, as far as I knew u cant use NF on OS9.  I thought they only made a carbon version for it.  At least that was my intake.  The only issue I have with Premium talk, well, I really dont have an issue with it.  It's a nice feature, but only premium members can use it.  And many of my clan mates dont have premium.  Granted they should get it, but I cannot force them to do so.  Scott did a nice thing by allowing people to use this feature for all GR games.  Very kewl.  Unfortunately for me I cant use premium chat because I use a headsset for a PC on a PC.  This way it allows me to control setting for NF within a game and also allows me to recoonect to people while in a game.  I think what Scott did was a good thing but again, I do have to agree, the way it is now I wouldnt compare it to the keyless uselage of NF.

hello in regards to the comment that nf doesnt work in os9, i have to beg the differ, i use os9 and i play mohaa,GhR,Soldier of Fortune 2, and return to castle wolfienstine and nf works for me in all of them.


hooks

Sure you do. Soldier of Fortune 2 is OS X only...

Scott.

The only legit complaint I've hard about the new chat in GR for premium users is the lack of Voice Activation.  Personally, I like push to talk much better then voice activation.

NetFone - voice activation, limited abillity to adjust volume, and being able to talk outside the game itself

GR Premium - no need to connect or know IP's, nobody connecting that shoudln't, push to talk, ability to talk to the other team (if they are premium too).  

I personally like the GR version better, and one thing's for sure.  Scott will continue to tweak it and improve it for us gamers.  While I think Haxial is great, they aren't doing anything specifically for us either.

The only thing I see holding most clans back is getting their whole clan to sign up for premium.  

Evill. Hooks had OS X on a lap top w/ he no longer has (his father took it back). but i was on NF w/ him last night in a game of GhR while he was on OS 9 I told him he sould post here that he uses OS 9 and NF.

NF has push to talk but you have to turn it on in the pref.

Evill, what are the possiblities of implementing a toggle in the next version? I would use a toggle key for chatting with my teammates while pushing/holding a key such as F5 to talk to the other team, I think it'd be a great idea. Also an idea for the future could be out of game chat with certain GR accounts, similar to nf, dunnno how possible that'd be but, it would solve the whole you can't chat outta game with GR premium chat.

WELL NOW THAT I HAVE UPGRADED TO PANTHER THE IN GAME VOICE DOES NOT WORK ANYMORE  :-(
I was a nice feature for a few weeks..... i hope evill updates it for 10.3

my voice communication in ghr works fine with 10.3 bad luck harv....heh

 :D ;D ::) :D ;) :)

hey harvey,

i had that problem too and Evill made some tests with me cuz of 10.3
just change the ingame-voicechat keys in gameranger preferences to the modifier keys. that should work.

[one] Civic.xo

Yea i did that... i workes now... i just had to remap the keys in GhR too so i coud still use what was on the keys to begin w/
