Until further notice, the patch server is off-line. EDIT: The server is back online [ 11-05-2004, 07:45 PM: Message edited by: Supreme Cmdr ]

If people actually got rehabilitated in jail; and if incarceration actually worked, there would be no crime. So no, jail time is - for the most part - meaningless. Today, I have received over 650+ emails because some wise ass found it funny to send emails to some list, using my email address. If only these f*ckers realize that oldies like me, know how to use server-side filters and NOTHING makes it into my email inbox. Ever. The last time this happened, was when I banned some tit from here. So unless others have got this recent deluge, I'm probably being targeted again.

And so it goes

There seems to be a big trend of people dropping Opera as of late; don't really see why, Opera works almost exactly the same except for the extensions. Its not even close to working the same as Firefox. Opera is bloated, highly incompatible with a LOT of websites (e.g. it won't run ActiveX and other server side scripts) etc. Like Netcaptor, I paid for Opera and ended up dumping it once Firefox started becoming more stable. I just got tired of the problems that both Opera and Netcaptor (my first browser switch from IE) with most websites and their on-going bloat, incompatibilities etc. My only complaint with Firefox atm is that compatible extensions take a while to be developed. e.g. I upgraded to 1.0RC2 yesterday and the GoogleBar and DictionarySearch extensions are no longer compatible; so I have to wait for updates.

oh man, thats funny. Maybe I should start working on some acceptance speech or sumthin'?

I bet all the terrorists, pirates, spammers etc are rejoicing right about now.

Bush's plan:

I don't think they went far enough. Doesn't NC have the death penalty?

If you haven't made the leap yet, now would be a really good time to do so. I have since dumped Netcaptor, Maxthon and Opera (no, I never use IE, ever) in favor of Firefox. Switching to Firefox made easy.

Yeah, it wasn't documented in the in-game VCF, but it is in the online version.

Why would they work if you can't select a missile to view? And you can't select a missile if the missile filter is off in the VDD/RTM. The missile filter was set to off by default in 2.00.15 in order to declutter the TRS.

Now sure how we missed this;man you guys are slipping.

It will be mine; the precioussssssssss

quote: Originally posted by Spindoktor: Clinton (Bill not Hillary) would have destroyed Bush. Without a doubt; and I'm sure that the Republicans know that. quote: Originally posted by Darkling: quote:Originally posted by Grizzle: I just really think a large portion of this country lives their daily lives in the distant past and is not ready for a female President. I think you're dead wrong, if someone like Margaret Thatcher showed up in the political scene in the U.S. she would probably be THE most electable candidate ever. This country wants someone who is conservative (Read REPUBLICAN), but at the same time in in touch with the issues. And women are percieved to be more in touch than men. The problem however, is that most of the Women in Power, such as Clinton, are so far out on the left that they would never have a chance to win the Beltway of America. Think about it, why did Clinton win, becuase he SOUNDED like a Republican, remember his "The Era of Big Government Is Over" speech? I tend to agree.

Election is over. Everybody go home...or to a more appropriate thread. Thank You.

From the numerous posts and resolutions in this thread, most of which have been deleted, it seems that some people are just NOT PAYING ATTENTION. In order to patch the game, you have to download (or copy) the patch DIRECTLY into your game folder BEFORE executing it. If you fail to do this, it will patch incorrectly. This is standard for most games (e.g. MS Flightsim and others). ALL posts like "..I tried to jump and crashed", "...I tried to view the planet and crashed" etc are related to this particular issue. The method for patching the game is CLEARLY indicated on the file downloads page, in NUMEROUS threads here; yet, some people decide to keep creating threads about the same foolish issue. Hence the reason we keep deleting them. Do NOT post ANYTHING in this forum related to this issue or you will be BANNED as soon as the thread is deleted. Enough is enough. If some of you can't pay attention and follow SIMPLE instructions, you have NO BUSINESS playing this type of game that requires such attention.

You can't get another manual unless you buy an English version of the game. To my knowledge, the manual for all languages for UC, are identical to the English versions. BCM Gold was a different story entirely because Dreamcatcher Europe decided to trim my manual. I told them that I'd sue - and they'd lose the license to the game (since they're not allowed to alter my properties) - if they pulled that stunt with UC.

quote: Originally posted by Grizzle: Hillary? No she wouldn't win either. Not because she's not qualified, but because she's a woman and she's a Clinton. This country is not ready to elect a woman to the Presidency, something made even more obvious by this election. Really? I saw figures on CNN which indicated that more women voted this time around than ever before. quote: Obama, he would be a good choice,Yeah, but as soon as that gets underway, we're probably going to see a [veiled race based] bloodbath thats worse than the Kerry Vietnam flap by a select group of people who would never stand for a non-White President. quote: but I'd have to agree with you SC, the Dems are likely to elect another lame candidate for the 2008 race. Yep. quote: Let's all just hope for the best and hope that the inevitable changes in Bush's cabinet will have a moderating effect on the direction this country is headed.Unlikely. Bush has got himself another Republican senate. Surprising to me is that Daschle lost his seat. quote: I hope Kerry concedes soon, I don't want a drawn out battle. We should spend the next four years fixing what's broken with our voting process.I agree 100% EDIT: I just saw on CNN that Kerry has called Bush to concede the election.

quote: Originally posted by Wolferz: Billary has the ambition to become the first woman president, just so she and Billy Boy can continue their free ride on the backs of the taxpayers. Wot? You've gotta be kidding me.

No, seriously. First saw it over at my fav watering hole.
