I would like to see the crackdown on cheaters such as you traid .... mirc0n that and user controlled servers will be worth the price alone. See in Ra3/OSP/CPMA when a server admin found out micr0n's name alias/ip/cd key he was banned pretty quickly over waiting 6mo's for pb to catch him.

It's a reasonable request. I think spawned servers allow you to get IP, so if a person is cheating then you can have their IP and make every other pro subscriber aware of the player.

It won't stop a smart player from proxy though, if they care :).

It stopped you ...

I'm playing just fine.

Play coy all you want everyone knows already.

I'm still going to be playing.

Not anywhere that matters.

As long as I have fun that is what matters :).

Raging Tier 2 & 3 players with a bot in pugs .......sounds fun.

Raging players is very fun, yes.

I agree, raging people is SUPER fun. But i rage them without a bot ;D

haah, mdae me lol.. i read the OPs name and thought "hmm.. where do you know this name from.. wasn't he involved in some esr-scandal lately" and then i see the first comment

I think there's is fine tbh, only thing I disagree with is saying free users won't get regular updates.

GTV would be nice as well.

I'd say apart from fixing some major exploit/bug that comes along, the "free" version is going to be forgotten about by devs.

I'm shocked they didn't try and make brightskins or some other cvars a premium/pro only feature.

I think the brightskins pro/premium feature would be way too intense :P.

I'm going to state a few ifs, and they are big ifs.

IF id actually uses the money to support mappers and to make new maps and IF id actually wants their free version to be viable, then it wouldn't be too far fetched for the premium/pro versions to have maps available first. What I mean is that these maps would, after 1 or 2 months, be available for the free users as well. This gives a bonus to the premium and pro versions of being able to learn and play maps before the free versions, but would eventually give the free versions all the maps.

This is the only way I see it really working, or else the free version becomes utter shite.

i've heard that the money from subscriptions IS goign to pay mapmakers

Heard means rumored. It's why I say if.

If all I said is done, then hope springs eternal from QL.

go away Ian Samuel Axelrod

nou

1. fake 2. gay 3. old

a very bad combination. so stfu.


personally i think that there should be no queue, no pregame ads, a monthly fee, no "content update for pros only", and pros should have access to ALL information regarding QL and its development so they can tell all the others :D

Who cares? Stfu.

u stfu

Is it comforting to know, in an age where everyone googles their potential employee, that the first hit of your name is a massive thread divulging your shitty personality?

And drug use.

It's comforting to know that I am literally the coolest person on esr.
Wait, when did I ever say anything about using drugs?

Just now.

I don't get it :(

he wants people to think you do drugs ;)

LOL. I'm clean as a whistle :D.

You know it's not possible to troll me :P. I troll this entire community. Always have, always will.

i can troll you...

hard :P. i love attention and *almost* anything that happens online that involves me is really fun :). as long as it does not interfere with real life, it's harmless fun.

Back when I was in my teens I could be raged and whatnot, but now it's pretty difficult to do so. Bravo to the person who can do it, though.

hnns: no employers care about some small gaming community drama, sorry :(.

damn. i expected to troll you with that post, but instead got you to admit that i could troll you. so either way i win ^_^

and yeah, i think that stuff on the interwebz is harmless fun until people find your personal information. anyone can find anyone's facebook or whatnot, but it takes real research to find someones personal information, and thats when you know shit just got real...

Why does personal information matter? I've given out my address plenty of times. People on the internet are still people. It's more dangerous that my next door neighbor knows my information than anyone else.

There's nothing bad about someone knowing where you live, your phone number, what have you. If someone wants badly enough to do harm to you, they will find that information no matter what you do to prevent that.

The reason I posted my address is because I wanted someone to come over and play a game with me or something. I am pretty bored, after all. I'd love to meet some of you guys in real life, as I am a really nice person and we would get along. I am sure most people here are generally nice people and are just upset over my 'ruining' their game for them.

I'm sorry I ruined your game, but my enjoyment comes first.

you SELFISH CUNT!


hehe.

phone numbers, address etc. are used to harass people. even if they dont actually go to your house, they can fuck with you (phone calls etc. etc.), and thats not very fun

Someone from ESR has called me, and all we did is talk normally. He was a nice person.

Yes, people can harass me, but I think that if they got to know me personally, they wouldn't have a good reason to. There are not so many 4chan like guys around, who really just enjoy harassing people. I try to be civilized online too. It can be hard when people act so immature here, but I think I do a good job. Most people who act immature here will not do so when they meet you in real life, though. Most people are good natured, this I am sure of.

People can send pizzas to my house too :P. As long as I am not paying money for it, I'll gladly accept them and eat them later. I don't see why people would be upset over receiving food for free, ever.

Again, I apologize for ruining the game for people, which I have apparently done. But, again, my ultimate goal in life is to enjoy it. That should be the goal for anyone. My enjoyment comes first and foremost.

once again... SELFISH CUNT!

but yeah. i have no doubt that most people on most forums are completely different in real life (the trolls at least), because they cant hide behind a fake name, monitor and all that stuff. piss someone off in real life and you might actually get some sort of consequence. of course tehre are other sides to it as well...

gimme your address and ill send you an XXL pizza and youll have to pay for it :3

How can you make me pay for it? I won't accept a COD pizza :P.

It doesn't inconvenience me, just the pizza delivery guy who I have to refuse.

damn you and your annoying rebuttals :( i cant think of a response to that...

Well I lied a bit, it will inconvenience me for two reasons.

1) I will have to get up and answer the door, which is actually pretty annoying.

2) I will probably end up getting blacklisted from the company the prankster has deliver pizza to me. I order papa johns once in a while, so that'd be kind of annoying.

*calls papa john's and orders triad an XXXL pizza with 10 toppings*

Most of them won't care, true. But if it's important, and computer science related, they won't hire a script kiddie that's too old to be a script kiddie. In any case you'll never be president.

Sorry, but it also will not affect any sort of programming job, whatsoever. It is not nearly as big an issue as you try to make it, because while this game may seem important to you, outside of your world, it is of absolutely no importance to any serious business.

Catch me drunk showing my penis to everyone on my facebook account, then you'll have something that can get me in trouble with work.

Wait, what happened to the overly nonchalance rhetoric? Don't drop the act. Anyway as I said, it won't matter at all for the vast majority of jobs. But if you should ever apply for something that involves bearing big responsibilities, e.g. something security related, they won't ever hire an old script kiddie.

I've never admitted anything :). Maybe I am walking a thin line though with how I am talking, sorry if that is the case!

I am not so much script kiddie :(.

If I want a programming job (I don't know why I would?), I can show what skill I have easily and they can evaluate it based on that. They do not evaluate based on ESR :P.

That's better, flood of smileys again. You admitted to cheating twice in this thread already (#41, #44). But that's irrelevant, and it wouldn't matter if you hadn't, my point is that employers generally care about honesty and character traits for positions of power, not only 'skill'. True, if you never see yourself applying for that sort of thing it doesn't matter. Cu.

I am a very honest person.

cheers

I am, not even kidding. Everyone who knows me in real life knows I rarely tell any lies and I also keep as many promises as I can.

I am also very trustworthy. After all, quite a few people have admitted to me through irc that they do cheat, yet I will never ever say who they are, as I said I wouldn't. This is what you call being trustworthy :).

Edit: Thanks for plus, you have one too bro.

For all the perks and all the features one can have for paying for a premium account, it won't spare them from the single worst problem that has plagued the game from day one - Cheaters.

It's somewhat tolerable to play a game for free and be cheated against, but its a complete slap in the face to pay Monthly to have the game ruined by cheaters.

Will I still play? sure, will I give them any money? Nope.

Yeah, I agree those cheaters mess the game up a bit, but I don't think it's such a widespread problem. I think it's mostly you getting owned and getting upset :P. Have a plus anyway.

So your referring as a fgt in third person now?

??

Ian, you should worry about yourself and your own situation at this point.

I don't get it. What situation? Why are you trying to make a video game so serious?

This situation:

You were snuffed out of your hole,
We all know your real name.
We all know what you look like.
If we thought you were a joke in a video game, it was nothing compared to what we would find out about you in real life.

However this isn't to say you haven't done any good.
Whenever I'm having a bad day, I just think of you and I'm quickly reminded that life could be much worse. So thanks for that!

Is it bad to know any of this information? I still don't get it.

Many people know what I look like. What's the problem?

I think me in real life is not a joke :P I am a fairly successful person with no particular sick real-life hobby or anything, so I think I am OKAY.

you say that, while hiding behind your own fake online life. post some pics of yourself, your real name, your address, etc. and we can all have a good laugh.

i dont care if you find out who i am or what i look like. im prolly the easiest person to find on esr/quake live..

eh? I'm not threatening him.. I'm just stating facts:

If I were him I would be worried about my situation and this is why^^^

*Edit - Just noticed when your account was made. Sup Triad, did you get a buddy in CA to make an acct for you? Thats what, your 7th ESR acct?

and you say his name because you think that its more threatening. and it isnt. so dont do it.

lol? nah I think I will.

You're a Disgrace Ian Axelrod.

damn... thats so scary.

so funny you just can't stop posting

lol, that KittenIgition guy is someone on quakelive forum :P. I only have one account on esr, ask becks :D

wow you both replied at the exact sametime!!

so? ive been here way longer than triad

IT'S FUTILE BRO. I'M NOT ALLOWED TO HAVE PEOPLE DEFEND ME.

sorry :'(

I think caring enough what others think of you to bot is taking the game too seriously.

We all have our opinions :).

Q: is it really that scary to call someone by their first names?
A: not at all.

a quick google search could reveal pretty much anyone's name. i bet most of you have yours on esr, or some other forum... so its not very scary or intimidating.

although, i might be thinking differently because nobody has tried to scare me that way.

FROM NOW ON I SHALL BE REFERRED TO AS: JEAN-LUC!

Most people make their names known online. Some make their phone numbers known. It's unimportant.

Those who act on that information in an illegal way will be punished accordingly, just like the few trolls who actually did :P. In the end, all the rage they have just gets them into trouble.

yeah i know all that. i was referring to him calling you Ian when he replied to your post. it was unnecessary and it was meant to make you feel some sort of hostility or something, but it fails. is ian even your real name? was that facebook profile yours? i doubt it was, since it was found with someone elses information or w/e

MAYBE MAYBE NOT!

drat! i gotz foiled!

You haven't done shit all .......

yes i have. ive done tons of shit. i bet iD hates me way more than triad, or most cheaters. and the same goes for most of the QL community...

In that case I wanna be called Batman

you arent worthy of a good name D:
ill call you aquaman instead ;3

not monthly. annually.

whose paying for my account? quake isnt the same without NOML terrorizing the lil' shitties

I'll pay for your account, bill.

A new map every month at least.

They have so many to 'leverage' (steal) that this should be possible :P.
