Oh Bog forgive me, I did a stupid thing. My free dial-up ran out last week and in a moment of weakness I installed a free AOL disk. I fought off the temptation as long as I could but I succumbed after three days without Team Fortress Classic.

 

So last night I was upgrading my Anti-Vir virus software and sweet bleeding jesus I had SIX viruses! :ph34r: I average about 3 viruses a year, in one week of AOL I got six. When I removed the archives the beasts were hiding in, I broke AOL so now I have no Internet at home. I reinstalled but I keep getting booted off the network whenever I try to sign up.

 

AOL is the crack cocaine of ISP, it'll fix your jones for internet access but holy shit does it fuck you up. Fortunately it looks like Verzion has 20$ a month DSL for sale so I have to get on board with that ASAP. Just in time for the new TFC, Fortress Forever!

AOL is satan.  I work for an online retailer and our bigges problem hands down is people who think AOL *IS* the internet  <_<

 

 

I guess their "carpet bombing" of America with their disks is paying off in at least one respect, the average person thinks the Net begins and ends with AOL. :wacko:

 

Well, Ive learned my lesson, Im going to have to format my HD and re-install everything. Jesus H. Christmas that is going to suck ass. I think to make myself feel better, Im going to run out tonight and buy a new game. Ive earned it after the agony of this last weeks cyber-meltdown. Plus I cant play Team Fortress. Whats life all about anyway? :(

Here we go - 'M$ is the devil and AOL is what he leaves in the toilet, etc' *yawns*

I'm using both windows and aol broadband, and have zero probelms with either.

I don't even have any AOL software installed, I set up my connection manually.

Their prices for unlimted bandwidth are very good.

I don't have anything in particular against Microsoft- actually I'm a rare graphic designer who prefers windows to macs. I can't stand AOL beause of the problems I've seen with it from a .com retailer's point of view and my own short unpleasant stint with it. :blush:

      Does anyone actually use the Normalise button in the Surface inspector? Even after looking at the code I'm not quite sure what it's for.

      Turns out my 15th anniversary mission idea has already been done once or twice before! I've been beaten to the punch once again, but I suppose that's to be expected when there's over 170 FMs out there, eh? I'm not complaining though, I love learning new tricks and taking inspiration from past FMs. Best of luck on your own fan missions!

      I wanna play Doom 3, but fhDoom has much better features than dhewm3, yet fhDoom is old, outdated and probably not supported. Damn!
      Makes me think that TDM engine for Doom 3 itself would actually be perfect.

      Maybe a bit of advice ? In the FM series I'm preparing, the two main characters have the given names Toby and Agnes (it's the protagonist and deuteragonist, respectively), I've been toying with the idea of giving them family names as well, since many of the FM series have named protagonists who have surnames. Toby's from a family who were usually farriers, though he eventually wound up working as a cobbler (this serves as a daylight "front" for his night time thieving). Would it make sense if the man's popularly accepted family name was Farrier ? It's an existing, though less common English surname, and it directly refers to the profession practiced by his relatives. Your suggestions ?

      Looks like the "Reverse April Fools" releases were too well hidden. Darkfate still hasn't acknowledge all the new releases. Did you play any of the new April Fools missions?
