News :-S

[holymoses]

now I didn't notice the support versions of DT4 on starforce. just wondering if they will have a version limit on which SF3 it will work with. God knows I've been waiting as after my son got ahold of one of my SF protected games it now doesn't work over 70% of the time. I really really dislike this protection. Now if it just did copy protection fine. but it screws up so much on many systems...

Well..... Its halfway through the deadline month...

I wonder how close we are to that promisedrelease date? :-)


Hurry hurry hurry! I'm anxious

you know, it's posts like these that are an abomination to those of us that are *patiently* waiting.

I totally agree... no need to say more :P

[Raa]

You know, its posts like yours that make me forget about friendly jokes, and high spirits.

Geez, I was only being light humoured in asking for a "How's it going" and you guys have to rip me apart.

You're totally right.... no need to say more. :x

please - everyone calm down!

What I learned lately is that it is indeed not possible to run such a big
community without some hassle here and there.

We tried several solutions - nothing worked really flawlessly.

@Raa: yep. I got the idea only the timing was a little bit misplaced
because of the trouble that started some days ago. However, don't
be worried, I got the joke

@all: Since some days now we received overwhelming amount of "thank
you" emails - and we much appreciate it! Of course some negative emails
also, there will be always people out there that think to blame us will help
or even wrote me mail which contains texts like "WORK!! Don't post this
bullshit but instead kick your butts and release your software! You're
idiots" (others used other terms), but still same context. Interesting:
with one exception, only german users wrote negative critics. Maybe my
english is just sooo bad that they not even understood what the reason for
all that trouble was OR they can't read english at all

However, all that lead now to a much more "chilling" atmosphere here and
we made some "timeouts" from work lately. We need some time for our
private lifes and I'm pretty sure everyone of you understand this.

Please don't start flamewar - what I already liked the most is our indeed
good relationship here and friendly atmosphere (even I must admit that
it suffered alot since recent issues) - let's do our best to hold it on that
level that we had last year!

Also I must apologize if I was lately ranting here and there - I'm under
big pressure not only here but also in my "real" life, and afterall, I'm only
human.. I'm a peacefull person normally and everyone who knows me
better can confirm that its not my usual behaviour to rant against every-
thing but instead try to help other people with their problems

to make the long story short: PEACE - release isn't that far away anymore.

Peacefully stalking corpses are sometimes also a good example to some, as they don't create much unrest and uproar (ok, exept a human comes along. But let's put this aside). As both the board's morale official and board zombie, I hereby present the two Daemon-Tools:



As everybody can see, DT version 4 is still hiding behind the tree, whereas version 2 is hanging on it. Luckily, version 3 has still plenty of flesh on its bones, and the candle still gives light!

[Raa]

*nods*
I'm happy with that

Loc - I've got one question for you, if you're normally a peaceful guy, why is your nickname Locutus of Borg? I'm an avid Star Trek fan, and he only represented evil :P That doesn't sound like you!!!


Anyway, you're totally right - private life first, so take a small break, if it takes a bit longer i'm all good!

And Nemerov: what on earth is with those zombies? lol! :P

Cheers,
Raa.

@Raa: the thread moves more and more to off-topic I would not consider
Borgs as evil - it's a collective, you wouldn't consider ants as evil, would you?

Even humans work and live in collectives and to be honest, every higher culture
could be best described as collective (imho). However, Locutus is also partially
human, maybe my deeper intention was that we all move more and more to
a future where your individual characteristics are suppressed. OK, now enough
OT-chitchat here.

just one more, please: Nemerov, if you didn't already exist somebody had to invent you :P
