You miss my point. Is that what Duke has said to you (or anyone), or is it your opinion?

Well, they are not about to reply to anyone's PM because they, stangely enough, got banned from these forums.

Clearly duke already found a way around that. No surprise.

Still, I wonder why they got banned fromt the forums... I asked the "people in charge" about it and still didn't get a reasonable answer. "Someone asked for it" is not an acceptable reason to ban someone... or maybe it should be written in the forum terms of agreement that people could be banned without warning from these forum at the discression of the moderators and admin. You'd make a good addition to the bush administration if you start runnings things like that.

I honnestly have to disagree with this ban from the BUF because no forum rules have been broken. Banning people because they have an opinion that differs with yours is very irritating to me.

On I side note, I also would like to mention that on thing I hate even more then cheating, is laying... And in that case, people both side of the line should feel concerned by this comment.

Watch all you like. You can either sit around, watching. You could hop onto a server, get kicked and banned repeatedly, hang around on the fringe of the community to be a spiteful and to be laughed at. Or you could go and sort out your issues. I suggest the latter.

You could also do me the courtesy of answering my mails.

Well posting here is the best way to unsure that :)
He couldn't do any better to give admins his IP.

That is indeed the least you could do, duke. In understand you don't look your emails often (or at least for the account we know about), but now would be a very good time.

where can we get the WP1.2 patch?

and when can we expect an upgrade patch to WP1.3?
I want the L85a1!

If anyone says 'when it's done', or coming soon(tm) I'm gonna punch duke. Then Taque. Then drop napalm on them both.

Neabit, I think Ravens_Hawk uses the Rogers network too, so don't do a wide-range ban.

Well you probably will never get it. Our good friends over here, our gardian angels, decided it was better for all of us to ban both duke and taque. That kind of bahavior pisses me so off that I don't even have the will to continue working with Taque to get the files we need from duke.

You must understand that duke is the only one who has most of the files we need to compile new versions of the weapons. I never really agreed to this way of working in the first place but that's how things where done. But now, if duke doesn't send over these files (which include skeletal model and animations and stuff like that), I am sorry to say there probably won't be a new weapon pack, although we were very close to one.

I am very disapointed at the way the forum adminstrator/owners managed this situation. First banning someone because a stupid dickhead said there was a virus in a file when in fact there was none and then banning both of them, because they feel it would be better for all of us or something. I feel almost as sick as I felt when neabit first posted this. As we said in that other thread in Off topic yesterday... better safe than sorry. Shoot first, ask later. Way to go. I do understand the nifty and universal argument that "Posting here is a priviledge, not a right"... I always find it amazing when people hide their actions behind rules like this one. Especially after seeing their posts in Off topics. In french i would say "Un poid, deux mesures". This place is a public forum. I think there is an ethical way to behave for both administrators and users on such a forum. If you want to start working like that, you'd better start calling it a Private Club... or even start working with invitations only. :rolleyes: But of course, this doesn't change the fact they should both be indefinitely banned from every game server we know about. No question there. Ok, i'm rolling off topic so lets get back to the real problem...

Now. At this point it would be very difficult for me to keep asking Taque to help me get in touch with Duke and get the files we need. I don't really see how I could do that or even go out and ask duke for the files directly and I especially do not see now why he should accept. I would have given out the files if I where in his place, but after getting banned from these forums, without a reason or a warning, no.

Well, I guess i have to thank you, no i can concentrate my work on RealTargets and forget the weapon pack.


Sorry Burger, but I the only answer I can give you at this point is "not comming at all".

****in awsome geo. Community self butt ****ed itself. Hahaha.

BTW Geo, banning people without due cause is normal here in BUF, why I remember when me and Jaunty got in text arguments for many pages, both of us hurling insults. Yet, I was banned, and Jaunty got to post BS about me. Why? Cause Keganator is not an un-biased person, which is what a moderator should be. The only person in this entire community I truely hold contempt for is Keganator and a few GDs, cause they proved to be true through and through assclowns. :rolleyes:

I entirely agree Geo. They should be banned from INF servers, but I don't see why they should be banned from the forums. Hell I don't even see why so many people bothered insulting them. I was rather glad when I read the first post because people actually worked together to find proof of something they suspected. Rather than to whine away. Then people started whining again... Meh.

No problem give my his static ip and we can give explicit accept.

I test it and ut-ip-ban give accept ips more priorität than reject iprange-ban.
Therefore we can ban rogers ip range and give this 2 guys with static ip explicit accept. We have only a problem if this 2 guys have no static ip.

My IP Police settings:
Accept 24.156.41.133
Reject 24.156.*
Reject 194.51.181.164
Reject 24.157.*

You don't care where stand accept ip. (center, top or down on the list)

That audio file contains a virus that will cause you to dislike Duke immensely.

****...I retract that statement (sorry it took me so long to do...haven't been at my computer a whole lot recently). Seems my computer regarded a file I downloaded from a SomethingAwful Forums torrent as a virus at about the same time I downloaded Duke's file. Being a dumbass, instead of checking what the file was I nuked all my downloads.

User error; it's an honest mistake. I apologise. My bad.

PS:

Grinsen is always allowed in on a technicality...being that he is infinately way cooler than his IP. In any case, I'm working this out with the SG admins right now (albiet slowly).

PPS:
The only person in this entire community I truely hold contempt for is Keganator and a few GDs, cause they proved to be true through and through assclowns.
And me...and cracwhore...and Pipe...and the entirety of DbD and Naughty...

This is a whine thread.
Bless you, Psychomorph. You are a true knight of the BuF.

A) Rogers IPs aren't static. Provided you leave your modem/computer on all the time it will remain the same, but they don't like you doing that ;) As I understand it there's a pool based on your area, and your NIC gets assigned one from the pool, until you disconnect, and someone else gets assigned it. Very easy to change if you know what you're doing.

B) Yes I'm with Rogers, but guess what Rogers also owns some 69.* IPs (like the one I’m currently on.) I’m sure all the server owners talk to each other so it wouldn’t be hard to get my IP out there, but what about some random noob who wants to play? Does he get kicked just for being on Rogers and in the Eastern Time zone? Does no one else see how retarded that would be?
