What? Blizzard should thank us (ok, map makers) for keeping a game semi-popular enough to keep them from shutting down servers, but make it a steady money black hole? The only reason why they don't shut it down is because the game is still too popular. If they shut it down, alot of people will stop supporting BLizzard.

Ya, but it won't happen if they don't give us the Map Editor.

Don't think they can. What happens to all the people who plays the game and paid good money for it? They're screwed? Good luck making single-player maps for the rest of your gaming career?

Screw that!

DOWN WITH BLIZZARD!

What exactly is the internet but not a big book?

Read: http://www.google.ca/search?hl=en&q="bot+farming"&meta=

edit: They can't legally shut down b.net services for specific games for X amount of years (forgot the actual number or what they're at currently) because of claims made of b.net services made on the packaging (otherwise they'd get dinged for false advertising, especially since blizzard products are still being actively sold with that marketing on it).

They make enough on advertising to justify the cost of running b.net for the older games.

We're talking about SHUTTING DOWN the servers, as in stopping the game. Not down time to fix things, or because they crashed or something like that.

If the WC3 user who hosts the US West server felt like being a jerk, he could shut the server down.

EDIT ~ Wow, Alex got his butt handed to him by Phoenix.

Bull. On both comments. Pardon me, but I believe you and I both know why I've been on-topic lately, Conan :p So have you, what little you've been around.

Anyway, wouldn't the person get in trouble without a good reason? I mean, tons of people on EACH server, one goes down, that ton of people are suddenly gameless. You're going to come back to work with "What, I was having a bad day! That's why I shut down my server for a day"

Don't think so.

Why the hell are you attacking me? I just said it was a good joke? Why me? Not him? Your just trying to start an argument.

Bull? My first comment was just pointing out that a WC3 player hosts the US West server, and you jump down my throat for it.

Oh, and: My post wasn't even directed towards you.

I wasn't trying to attack you, my bad. Needs more smileys :D

I meant to say that I've been "on-topic" lately, because of... Well, you know why :D You got the same PM I did.

And for the other thing, the server thing, wouldn't you get in trouble if you closed a server down "for being a jerk", or whatever? Don't you need a good reason, or something like that? Protocol, or ... Something :D

No arguments. Just a response :p My bad for the confusion, DAMN YOU, COMPUTERS AND YOUR LACK OF TRANSFERRED EMOTION! ;)

what do you mean by "most people"? you think that WE should thank blizzard or reverse?

I think thank we should thank both :D : blizzard for having made a wonderful game with a wonderful tool (the W-E) and thank the creators to enable us to continue playing maps, like aos, hero maul, TD, and more!! And thank all the gamers that "prevent" the shutting down of all the B.Net servers :D

we should flame blizzard for ruining melee. honestly, reducing armour by 1 isnt much of a nerf to destros. and human towers still own. and bear/dryad is still retarted imba. and batriders got the wront type of nerf, now theyre plain useless. the batriders didnt need hp reduction, they needed liquid fire gone or nerfed to hell. and why buff necrowagon? it was only a nub cheese strat anyway...

  • No one is chatting at the moment.
  • Varine Varine:
    How can you tell the difference between real traffic and indexing or AI generation bots?
  • The Helper The Helper:
    The bots will show up as users online in the forum software but they do not show up in my stats tracking. I am sure there are bots in the stats but the way alot of the bots treat the site do not show up on the stats
  • Varine Varine:
    I want to build a filtration system for my 3d printer, and that shit is so much more complicated than I thought it would be
  • Varine Varine:
    Apparently ABS emits styrene particulates which can be like .2 micrometers, which idk if the VOC detectors I have can even catch that
  • Varine Varine:
    Anyway I need to get some of those sensors and two air pressure sensors installed before an after the filters, which I need to figure out how to calculate the necessary pressure for and I have yet to find anything that tells me how to actually do that, just the cfm ratings
  • Varine Varine:
    And then I have to set up an arduino board to read those sensors, which I also don't know very much about but I have a whole bunch of crash course things for that
  • Varine Varine:
    These sensors are also a lot more than I thought they would be. Like 5 to 10 each, idk why but I assumed they would be like 2 dollars
  • Varine Varine:
    Another issue I'm learning is that a lot of the air quality sensors don't work at very high ambient temperatures. I'm planning on heating this enclosure to like 60C or so, and that's the upper limit of their functionality
  • Varine Varine:
    Although I don't know if I need to actually actively heat it or just let the plate and hotend bring the ambient temp to whatever it will, but even then I need to figure out an exfiltration for hot air. I think I kind of know what to do but it's still fucking confusing
  • The Helper The Helper:
    Maybe you could find some of that information from AC tech - like how they detect freon and such
  • Varine Varine:
    That's mostly what I've been looking at
  • Varine Varine:
    I don't think I'm dealing with quite the same pressures though, at the very least its a significantly smaller system. For the time being I'm just going to put together a quick scrubby box though and hope it works good enough to not make my house toxic
  • Varine Varine:
    I mean I don't use this enough to pose any significant danger I don't think, but I would still rather not be throwing styrene all over the air

  • The Helper The Helper:
    Another bot invasion 493 members online most of them bots that do not show up on stats
  • Varine Varine:
    I'm looking at a solid 378 guests, but 3 members. Of which two are me and VSNES. The third is unlisted, which makes me think its a ghost.

    I bitch about Xenforo sometimes but it really is full featured you just have to really know what you are doing to get the most out of it.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    It is just not easy to fix styles and customize but it definitely can be done
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I do know this - xenforo dropped the ball by not keeping the vbulletin reputation comments as a feature. The loss of the Reputation comments data when we switched to Xenforo really was the death knell for the site when it came to all the users that left. I know I missed it so much and I got way less interested in the site when that feature was gone and I run the site.
