  1. it'd be far easier to bank stuff and would clear the area round the storage guy much faster if a trading style window popped up between you and mr storage (showing what he's already holding and showing what you have in your bag); and letting you click on items you want to shift (in or out) and input your own numbers if ya want.

     

    atm it's quite painful.

     

    /end rant

    heh - a classic case of not knowing the history of the game or that storage is a hack and will be refined in the future.


  2. Oh, and I also played Trade Wars.

     

    One of these days I'm going to get my BBS running again.

    I loved Trade wars. Ah, the good old days...

     

    I used to run my own BBS in my parents basement for years. Then when I moved out I took the phone number with me. For a long time I used to get computers calling my new place...


  3. 9. When you make the biggest mistake ever, something good comes from it.

     

    how come when i droped a case of soda nothing good came out of it? i mean soda did come out of the cans and it is good but i dont think it counts...

    It was good for the ants...

     

     

     

    (and the opposite of love is disinterest)


  4. He lives in a McDonald's ;)

    I hide in the ball pit in the kids play area at night when they close up. Then, when everyone's gone, I sneak out and make myself some delicious hamburgers and french fries. And I always use extra secret sauce.

     

    When I'm done, I sneak out the drive-thru window, leaving a trail of chicken McNuggets (now with all white meat!) behind me.

     

    McDonalds. I'm lovin' it.


  5. you also have to realise that many people who post here have no idea what their gfx card is or how to find it..maybe you should explain that too.

    I also don't have a "gfx card". I do however have a "graphics card" or as some say "video card". Do you need info on that?

     

     

    To be blunt: if you're trying to help people, drop the stupid Internet dialect and speak plainly, in English. Keep in mind that the people you're trying to help may have limited English vocabulary and any short forms or 133t talk is going to make it impossible for them. It doesn't matter so much in other forums, but here you should be as clear as possible.


  6. The reason that you're banned is actually because you're canadian, and we don't like canadians.

    Ignore him. He's just upset cause he's only just realising what a shite programmer he is. And that he's not Canadian and therefore sucks.


  7. I also didn't create a diff, which seemed to confuse some people. Instead of just patching their code automatically, I was forcing them to manually edit 1 file and insert nearly half a dozen lines of code. I'm a slave driver, asking the impossible as usual.

     

    Hell, when I was a kid we had to walk 5 miles through 2' of snow in bare feet just to feed our punch cards into a machine the size of a house. You kids now, with your new fangled diff and patch programs have it too easy.


  8. Until it's been added to the client and a new version released, you're out of luck if you can't recompile the client yourself.

     

    Both of the ideas you mentioned have been done. One to search the storage a specific item, and one to sort the #storage return values (written by me). I don't think either are in the CVS though.

     

    But if you go to www.elrocks.com/elc you can download my client, which is based on the CVS of about a week ago and includes a few other patches too (listed on the page at that URL).

     

    ps. If you choose to use this client, I take no responsibility. If it violates any rules (I don't think it does), it's your ass. It's like a gun: I'll make it for you, but if you shoot someone, you do the time.


  9. Ent gives everyone a second chance, but didn't you blow it already by coming back and spamming again?

     

    I've seen this happen before and always thought, if you got muted for spamming the first time and then came back and did it again (under a different name, or not) and your got yourself banned - that's your 2 chances.

     

    And it's not like you didn't know it was wrong; you were muted already. And I'm sure Learner warned you at least a couple times before that.

     

    Seems like the record stands at:

    First offense (or first few): Learner warned you.

    Second offence: Learner muted you.

    Third offence: Learner banned you.

     

    Well, that's that. Cya.

     

    (I feel cruel today. Ent, unban this guy and I'll quit. You know I'm serious.)
