Title: Err...Wtf?
Post by: c| Lone-Wolf on August 18, 2004, 10:43:21 pm
So...now the "Make RS Open Source" thread is not locked, nor being ignored, it has simply been killed?

No move notice...no nothing...and very definately no reason?  Im not trying to piss anybody off, but arent all the GG mods all hardcore RS vets, who love the game?  Wouldnt you expect the mods would support even the slightest hope of RS being made open source?

I would...but then again it might just be me...

yeah, i too would like to know what the fuck is going on. Mods if your going to delete, lock a thread, give a reason why.

I thought that the only active mod was voods, and yet he's been in favor of it all alone. Wtf is going on here? The GG mods are going squirlly on us...

i'm telling you, we should just do it ourselves illegally. there's mac rs players who can decompile it and make it work. no one would ever know, we'll just distribute the patch secretly amongst ourselves.

wow. what a smashingly good idea, illegally pirate/modify/create software and then distribute it. wowzers. oh, and i should had said: i thought the only two active mods were sin and voodoo, because it appears brain and ace have dropped off the face of the earth.

USAGE: Dude, xoclipse that shit up.

Indeed it is ridiculous. The only mod not to reply to me is Ace. I cant really see why Ace would do something like this so we will keep an open mind...right? The only other answer Sin, Brain, Loudnotes, and myself have come to is that Mauti may have mistakenly given someone else Admin rights. We hope to resolve this when he gets home on the 20th sometime. As for the thread, I cant find it anywhere, so someone has completly deleted a 6 page thread fromt he database, which is definate cause for expulsion if it is indeed a mod.

umm... the only persons who could've done it are the, for all visible, GG moderators and the forum administrator Mauti.

how is my idea bad? i know it's illegal, but we already payed for the game, i don't see why we can't continue to play it. it's not making any more money for them, and that petition isn't going anywhere. they probably wouldn't even care, what the hell are they gonna do anyway, stop everyone from using it? damn right, xoclipse it.


Title: Re:Err...Wtf?

bronto this will turn out worse than that RS expansion pack illegal port.


Title: Re:Err...Wtf?
Post by: bronto on August 19, 2004, 12:03:59 am
they only had it brought to their attention because
a) it was advertised on this site and on gameranger
b) it was only made for PC

this is different, we already have the gameranger plugins, and it's already for mac. if whoever does it just leaves their name out of it, then how would they even do anything about it? you can't stop people from playing the game they purchased.

"you can't stop people from playing the game they purchased."

They can if they try to run it through a OS not supported.


Title: Re:Err...Wtf?
Post by: bronto on August 19, 2004, 12:47:37 am
if they're not gonna keep their game up to date, then it's perfectly fine for us to do it ourselves. who's getting hurt by this? no one. why are you against it myst, do you want it to happen or not?


Title: Re:Err...Wtf?
Post by: BTs_Mysterio on August 19, 2004, 02:37:58 am
Just the like Athena Sword mac conversion I'm against it until it is official. That way you don't ruin our chances of a legal (Supported by GR) one.

Im half and half I would really liek ro play rs, but I dont want anyone here on DAMN getting sued


Title: Re:Err...Wtf?
Post by: cO.gabe on August 19, 2004, 03:13:00 am
who's getting hurt by this? no one.
Maybe the person who converted it, if MacSoft decides they wanna get  rich.

Post by: c| Lone-Wolf on August 19, 2004, 03:21:04 am
Why dont we try to keep this on topic, yes?

Granted, not a lot we can talk about til the mauti returns from his vacation (how dare he) so...yah.  Bronto, why dont you open up a new thread titled "Lets illegaly make RS open source" so this one doesnt become flame bait, eh? =)


Title: Re:Err...Wtf?
Post by: cO.Kuza on August 19, 2004, 04:58:18 am
We should have a complete admin refresh, (leave some who are active and grif)
This would solve our problem.


Title: Re:Err...Wtf?
Post by: spike on August 19, 2004, 05:17:08 am
im sure its an effect of the admins not being around, but the forums feel a lot more spammed lately(i know im part of the problem) mb thats just how it is, but they seem more off topic.


Title: Re:Err...Wtf?
Post by: c| Lone-Wolf on August 19, 2004, 05:28:32 am
leave some who are active

Seems like that would be only voodoo =p


Title: Re:Err...Wtf?

Whoever is disobeying the admin guidelines should step up and stop being a coward.

This has gone long enough.
I will not do another thread, before I know who the hell deleted it.
I can see why the shithead locked it, but deleted it?
That's far enough. The sucker that did it got u come forward soon, or I'm going to get pissed!

[color=Greenbelieve me when i say that we have no idea who the fuck did this. our best guess at this point is that someone might have hacked an admins account[/color]

Then if that would be the problem, I should suggest that you reconsider your passwords, maybe talk to PlanetR6. Or just update the forum software til something better. An example is phpbb.

Then I don't see why someone would want to "hack" into an account, and then lock/delete a thread.

Mods have an insane job infront of them trying to keep the peace of the forums. That is why they make crappy decisions at times because of the overload in their brain. Civic seems to remind me of all those developers of Teamspeak, saying nothing positive just everything negative. If Macsoft got the hint and patched this game up for OSX they could make nice money but who knows.

Rebel calm down. If one admin is going to be a asshole don't make them sound like some sort of insane freak-squad. This forum should keep logs of who does what.
