  1. People have had bad attitudes lately. I hear a lot of entitlement, people trying to change the rules, people deeming things arbitrary and ignoring written law. We should crack down on some of this, and unfortunately sometimes that means examples will be made. I hate to think of some of the wonderful members who are on the verge of retirement over stupid issues that are well documented in the handbook.

    Here's a little tip. As strong as any of you are fighting to get a rule loosened or expanded, there are an equal and opposite number of members trying to get it tightened up and enforced.

  2. The radar breaks in combat anyway. It's only usefull on defense i find, to check whos nearby. Personally i can't stand VL's minimap, snowglobe shows yellow or green, i'm tired of squinting at a mass of 30 dots trying to tell what one's green and what ones blue in a cluster. Other than that i don't use any other VL features.

    maybe if it was light green and dark blue or vica-versa.

  3. Looks epic! alot easier to direct people to the application. Wiki would be nice. I do like the flash animation, but it makes me jump when the sound is maxed at work and i don't realize early. So what Anly suggested may be a good idea.

  4. I don't mind the chat at all during combat. Honestly, it's more fun to fight with an actual conversation going. This isn't exactly a clan match when we're in combat. I know others would prefer it to be completely on topic, but I see no harm in talking about other subjects. There isn't much to lose focus of either in combat, the goals are pretty straightforward.

    That would be true if it were casual conversations happening, but they tend to get carried away during fighting. People trying to call directions getting cut off by people getting carried away, We should just use channels correctly. If we want to have a casual conversation about what we had for dinner, use off topic.

  5. The estate menu script times are flawed. It can give an average while idle, but there are a few factors to consider. The hud scales in latency when the av radar picks up more people. I've had my script time jump averages between 0.21 and 0.8 just by going from checking at 3000 meters to checking in a meeting. The only extra script I have is blink on my new head, which doesn't seem to generate much, and listens solely for it's hud on some huge channel in the negatives or some such. I don't know about guns creating latency, but i know 30 people standing around and 30 people firing full auto makes a world of difference, maybe we should test script time idle and script time firing full auto.

  7. Well you have to read into the context of the post. For example, Agares posted specs for a new computer he was going to buy, but asked "what do you all think". I responded with an answer to his question aswell as alternate configuration choices, including my own. His thread was about his hamster, and i brought up my own, but in context. If it's a thread about "hey this is what I have, i require no further input" then thats one thing, but when they leave it an open discussion there is some room for comparison.

  8. Very good computer if the objective is to run SL flawlessly. If the objective is to have the worlds largest e-peen like mine then these are the speccs you want.

    (my speccs)

    Sapphire Radeon HD 4870 X2 Video Card - 2GB GDDR5, PCI Express 2.0, CrossFire, (2) Dual Link DVI, HDTV

    Oc the cpu to 4.0 ghz, water cool, 22 fans, full tower case custom modded.

    probly gonna replace the mobo with this

    ASUS Rampage II GENE Motherboard - Intel X58, LGA 1366, µATX, Audio, PCI Express 2.0, CrossFire Ready, SLI Ready, Gbit LAN, RAID, S/PDIF

    also for monitors find something with a high refresh rate, mine are 1 ms 1:2000 contrast. Personally I enjoy windows 7 even if its buggy sometimes.

    There is some room for upgrade, and i plan to. Another video card in crossfire, pointless, but e-peen points. 1.5 tb slave, ill never use it, but e-peen points. Upgrade the watercooling and OC my cpu/ram/vid cards even higher. 2x I-Inc iF-281DPB 28" Widescreen LCD Monitor - 1920x1200 WUXGA, 800:1 Contrast, 3ms, HDMI, VGA, Energy Star, Tilt & Swivel Stand, w/Speakers Probably wont fit in my room, but e-peen. maby toss in a solid state drive for no apparent reason. Also need a blu ray drive that you'll never use.
