    no radiation requires another element to 'make' it you dont radiate nothing u have to radiate something . real question is where does the light come from as up to now all light in universe considered refected light original sources as yet unknown i believe :D ...just my 2 cents :D

    perhaps the bank requires a complete revamp on thinking. such as instead of money lending and interest giving, why not a rent warehouse where folks can rent items for a week month etc at a cost. this amount to be debited automatically from their invs or item automatically returning to bank if proceeds unavailable.

     

    just a thought but i see a lot of folks unable to fund cloaks so perhaps a rental system may work.

     

    bit new to the ideas sketch so if kak i apologise :)

    Yes, i have avast anti virus running with windows xp firewall, however both of them asked if i required EL to be added and should they trust its software.

     

    To which my reply was, of course, yes. So they should be ( i add that knowing that all things dont go smoothly with pc software :confused: ) causing no ill effects.

     

    Let me know if you can tell me anything different to this tho, i have also tried running EL without fire wall and it still locks up the internet after i exit it. Please be aware this happens only when EL has been played (accessed) and then closed. Whilst running internet access is fine and runs as normal...and yes i agree its the weirdest thing :confused: i have had happen in a while.

     

    thank you for replies so far i look forward with enthusiasm any futher assistence.

    hi guys any help out there i have down loaded the game now 3 times and reinstalled but game still crashes the net when i exit it. any clues please as i have to restart comp all the time. also if i exit EL by accident then comp must be restarted before i can continue.

    Hi guys grinnbearit finally back on after discovering BT ip addresses where all in the banned section of el so Roja has whitelisted me so i can actually get on the game however...

     

    When i access EL i can play happily but if i try and access the internet after playing or whilst playing my internet access hangs, all net applications freeze but not the computor applications. The only current solution in restoring this is by restarting pc, then all works as before.

     

    I am currently running xp and my pc graphics card etc easily manage all the latest add ons in EL due to being serious gaming head (nice smooth graphics by the way ) plus easily handles all other applications in relation to the game such as fog blood eyecandy etc tho i dont bother with lamp thingy.

    frame rate no higher the 30 tho as more folks come on the game this does fluctuate up to 50-60. but mainly 30's

     

    i cant find any configuration issues but i am no computor buff i can find my round so know limited basics etc so i could easily have missed something so i am throwing it out to the community as i know out there will be someone with brillient ideas to share to aliviate this issue.

     

    my thanks in advance i look forward to hearing from you.

     

    ps after reading forums good to see a few familiar names out there still playing :P

     

    i am just about to unistall and reinstall to see if it makes a diffrence but after that i am all ears to suggestions!

     

    blessing and salutations grin

    Ok i will look in the help first to see if anyone had anything similar.

     

    I just tried ringing bt to see if they can change my ip address. They said the ip address they have given me is their dedicated online gaming ip..go figure!

     

    A lot of my friends have just switched over to BT in this area and i hope they are not going to have the same issues. Mind you i am a gaming head lol.

     

    BT did say if it wont configure then they could if you where to give me a port address, they can configure my pc from this end apparently...as i am not a computor buff (at all) i will have to hope you understand the meaning of that.

     

    meanwhile thank you again for your patience and responses

    When you are whitelisted, you will still get the red banned message, you just ignore it and log in as usual.

    There is no way to remove it without removing the ban, which can't happen unless the ban is incredibly old and the troublemakers ip has changed.

     

    Roja does the whitelisting, I'm not sure if she will forum pm you or not. I can only say keep trying.

     

     

    wow Aislinn your fast lol ok i will try logging in again thank you for your time

     

    nope i can get to the log in screen but when i put my name and my password in nothing happens i click login nothing i hit enter same thing and if i log back out which i havent done as yet i know the pc will crash.

     

    Aislinn if this is not rectified will it not be possible for me to play el all because i have changed my service provider?

     

    concerned grin

    Hi Aislinn sorry to post again but any idea when i will be cleared to play and if i will be posted to telling me so.

     

    The reason i ask is if i try logging in to EL and red writing with ip ban comes up it still crashes the computer. (as i have tried twice with same result lol) so i am reluctant to even try it. so any advice or information would be appriciated

     

    many thanks grin :evilgrin:

    my thanks for the promptness of the replies :)

    i have registered a new email on the forum and emailed roja with my requests ensuring the email is a pay up one not a yahoo freebie.

     

    will my daughter (well me for her) need to register with roja should she desire to join so i know or can she just enable hers when grins backup and working.

     

    my thanks

    Hello...

    1. You were not banned. You have a dynamic IP and are now logging on from a different range entirely from when you used to play. What has happened is, your ISP has assigned you to an IP range that we had banned in the past due to a serious troublemaker. On a side note, I do see that raistlin had played in february as well.

    2. It did seem as though the situation had resolved itself.

    3. See #1.

     

    Now if this is going to be your new range, you will need to be whitelisted. Please read the pinned thread on whitelisting in this section. I will caution you however that we do not whitelist alts, as there is limited space on the whitelist and we need to make sure that everybody who legitimately needs to be whitelisted gets the opportunity to have one character play, and not left out because somebody else has more than one.

     

    yes raistlinn was another charactor i started but rarely played i swopped to grin so please feel free to delet that account, i think i tried to log on with that one when grin wouldnt work, also my daughter did play at the time as well she thinks it was 'lirael black' or something please delete that one also.i will look up the whitelist now and yes this BT line is the new provider for the service.

     

    am i to gather that if i can be 'whitelisted' my daughter would be unable to join as there would be no room for me to have more charactor, or, does it mean only one charactor from the same ip address at the same time so providing we were not on at the same time it would be possible?

    Hello my in game name in grinnbearit i used to play eternal lands months ago. I was never rude or even highly interactive on the chat so i was amazed when i signed back in after being away to discover i have been banned. I wrote an email to the contact given on the website requesting information, mainly as i was concerned my charactor had been hacked. I recieved no reply but when i signed in again i was allowed to play and no red writing came up on my screen. I played for 2 days then when i went to sign in on the third day my screen again showed up the red writing saying my internet ip was banned then the pc crashed!

     

    Please tell me what is going on if someone is hacking my account i will need to know. I play a lot of net games i am 38 years of age mum 2 kids i am not into being abusive using bad language or anything else so i am totally at a lose as to why

     

    1. i was banned in first place

    2. after i sent email i was allowed back in game tho no reply was sent with any explanation

    3. why after a couple of days i am banned again.

     

    Also when it came up that i was banned on the game it cause a reaction on my bt router to the point in crashed my entire network blowing up the BT router. BT are currently investigating what happened in relation to how software could cause such an issue to their product so they may be contacting you also as whatever the ban did destroyed their router! It took them 5 days to get my internet service up and running again and as i said to them accessing the game was the last thing i did.

     

    So please can you respond to this email as both british telecom and myself are at a loss as to what ip ban did that caused the router to 'fry', and, also i am at aloss s to why this has happened to me.

     

     

    sincerely grinnbearit.

     

    please note the email sent to you is from skarrak and full details of my name etc were on the email

     

     

     

    ok read a few mails BT was not my provider for the net when i first started this game i have only been with Bt 12 months and i notice you discuss some issues relating to ip ranges and some folks being part ot them? no idea what it means but either way i see a possible explanation but still dont explain how what where n why the router blew but perhaps you can enlighten me but thought i would add that so you at least know attempting to understand whats going on .
