00:28 <Lucifer_bed> yay, now I have two logins going like everyone else
00:31 <DrJoeTron> haha
00:31 <DrJoeTron> do i even bother to post in it?
00:32 <Lucifer_arma> yeah
00:32 <Lucifer_arma> post and tell him he's a fucking smeghead

00:35 <Lucifer_bed> damn keyboard.
00:35 <Lucifer_bed> I just got the computer in my bedroom setup so I can actually use it, but the keyboard takes some getting used to
00:36 <Lucifer_bed> the whole setup takes some getting used to
00:36 <Lucifer_bed> DrJoeTron: yeah, draw a smeghead :)
00:36 <Lucifer_bed> oh yeah, I needed to commit acme so I could work on it back here
00:36 <Lucifer_bed> I was trying to get away from the noise in the living room
00:37 <Lucifer_bed> does this keyboard work?
00:38 <Lucifer_bed> so the quiet keys keyboard is really loud, but the loud keys keyboard is really quiet
00:38 <Lucifer_bed> ok, I'm satisfied this keyboard works, and it not working the other night was just an anomaly
00:39 <Lucifer_bed> wrtlprnft: so is a TNT2 actually better than this i810?
00:40  * Lucifer_bed is wondering because he has a worse video card than the tnt2 that he can put in the server and bring the tnt2 over here

00:48 <spidey> oh well
00:48 <Lucifer_bed> but styball is part of pig's patch, you should already have it running iirc

00:50 <spidey> it downloads the map fine, but when it tries the .dtd it doesn't try to download it from our server, it tries from aa
00:50 <Lucifer_bed> I don't know the answer to this one, sorry.  I don't know how to get it to download the right dtd

02:07 <Your_mom_arma> haha
02:09 <Your_mom_arma> I think invader put it as well as anyone could
02:12 <DrJoeTron> pretty much
02:12 <Your_mom_arma> It may start politely but it just snowballs until the elitists come in cursing and using racial slurs. So it may be best to add in a round_config message making the whole topic something that's taboo to talk about in the server, asking players to either join another server if they want to play like that or to create a discussion elsewhere.
02:13 <Your_mom_arma> Either way, in what I've seen and heard(read) the guys who play open tend to be the _Bad Bushido_
02:14 <DrJoeTron> hahaha
02:14 <DrJoeTron> thank you
02:14 <DrJoeTron> thats why I'm simply kicking the people who say SORRY FRO CLOSIN
02:14 <DrJoeTron> because they don't know better
02:14 <DrJoeTron> but they also don't help the problem
02:14 <DrJoeTron> I'm glad you guys got my back :3

02:15 <_Sticky_> yeah kicking for saying sorry is nazi
02:15 <DrJoeTron> my mom said he couldn't come
02:16 <DrJoeTron> _Sticky_ its either i kick for than, or ban when they complaing about people sealing on them
02:16 <DrJoeTron> which is known to happemn
02:16 <DrJoeTron> all of the fucking time
02:16 <DrJoeTron> i mean c'mon
02:16 <DrJoeTron> kicks are so fucking harmless
02:16 <DrJoeTron> its a kick
02:16 <_Sticky_> lol premtive kicking just incase they get it wrong later
02:16 <DrJoeTron> YUP
02:16 <DrJoeTron> holy shit
02:16 <DrJoeTron> you get it!
02:16 <DrJoeTron> :D
02:17 <DrJoeTron> give them an inch and they think they're a ruler
02:17 <DrJoeTron> plus
02:17 <DrJoeTron> we gotta have SOME order in there
02:17 <_Sticky_> depends do you agree with camping?
02:17 <DrJoeTron> and its making people not want to play with people tossing up stupid lame rules
02:18 <DrJoeTron> _Sticky_ depends 
02:18 <DrJoeTron> but getting mad because someone killed you?
02:18 <DrJoeTron> thats retarded
02:18 <DrJoeTron> if you don't like getting killed online
02:18 <DrJoeTron> don't play internet games
02:18 <DrJoeTron> don't play games at all for that matter
02:18 <DrJoeTron> i don't get angry about people who camp
02:18 <_Sticky_> thing is your going the same way z-man mentiond...if its possible in the game its acceptable to do it
02:19 <DrJoeTron> exactly
02:19 <_Sticky_> which is fine
02:19 <DrJoeTron> i mean i have my own guffs
02:19 <DrJoeTron> about people readjusting and all of that shit
02:19 <DrJoeTron> i get killed by lag all of the time
02:19 <DrJoeTron> i don't make a fit about it
02:19 <DrJoeTron> because no one gives a shit
02:19 <_Sticky_> but dont then complain when people dont grind in fortress, or capture the flag in ctf or tk or camp...they are all possible
02:19 <DrJoeTron> do you care that i died because of the network delay?
02:20 <DrJoeTron> which i dont
02:20 <_Sticky_> i agree that the open closed debate is stupid
02:20 <DrJoeTron> i don't grind at ctf
02:21 <_Sticky_> i alwayse thought closing was the whole point
02:21 <DrJoeTron> thats rediculous
02:21 <DrJoeTron> but then?
02:21 <_Sticky_> havent changed my mind from there
02:21 <_Sticky_> still think that way
02:22 <DrJoeTron> unless the server says "hey jerks, grind"
02:22 <DrJoeTron> or "play open omfg"
02:22 <DrJoeTron> i'll do it
02:23 <DrJoeTron> because its specifically stating "hey guys, we're doing thing differently"

02:23 <_Sticky_> yeah but i would equate it with non grinding in fortress to an extent...that is an unwrittent rule that will get you kicked
02:24 <DrJoeTron> yeah
02:24 <DrJoeTron> its a defacto standard
02:24 <DrJoeTron> plus
02:24 <DrJoeTron> _Sticky_ you're missing one major thing here
02:24 <DrJoeTron> those are team games
02:24 <_Sticky_> ok its a bit different since in rubber there are no team mates to screw over
02:24 <DrJoeTron> i mean i understand what you're trying to say here
02:24  * _Sticky_ was typing that heh
02:25 <DrJoeTron> but it doesnt *completely* fit what the problem is
02:25 <DrJoeTron> kids are coming in
02:25 <DrJoeTron> saying they're the king of the sandbox
02:25 <DrJoeTron> and if anyone disagrees they get pissy
02:25 <DrJoeTron> then the park district workers come in
02:25 <DrJoeTron> like myself
02:26 <_Sticky_> im sort of saying unwritten rules will always appear naturaly 
02:26 <DrJoeTron> yup
02:26 <DrJoeTron> and i am all for opposing them
02:26 <DrJoeTron> fuck de facto standards in games
02:26 <DrJoeTron> i have my own hates
02:27 <DrJoeTron> but i won't say you're a terrible person because you play a way i cant stand
02:27 <DrJoeTron> i used to
02:27 <DrJoeTron> but then realized, what good does it do if i tell them that
02:29 <_Sticky_> just kick on the words open or closed
02:29 <DrJoeTron> the sorry thing is still standing
02:29 <DrJoeTron> "sorry 4 closin"
02:30 <_Sticky_> naa thats just wrong...kicking for being polite even if they were in the right in closing inn the first lace
02:30 <_Sticky_> s/lace/place
02:30 <DrJoeTron> when you say it every other round?
02:30 <DrJoeTron> thats not "polite"
02:30 <DrJoeTron> thats called spam
02:31 <DrJoeTron> its like if a guy sat next to you in a movie theatre
02:31 <DrJoeTron> start burping the whole night
02:31 <DrJoeTron> and saying "sorry"
02:31 <DrJoeTron> each time
02:31 <DrJoeTron> and then get mad if you burp
02:32 <DrJoeTron> you gross kid you
02:32 <Lucifer_bed> I'm curious how this open/close thing came about in the first place
02:32 <DrJoeTron> yeah me too damn it
02:32 <DrJoeTron> from what i hear
02:32 <_Sticky_> ive alwayse thought one of the main reasons the tron comunity stays small is because we are rude to newbs who leave and never come back, very nearly happend to me.  however if you kick a new guy just cos someone has misled them as to how the game is played they will again not come back
02:32 <Lucifer_bed> I'm curious because me and mom have been playing open towards each other for a looong time now, before most of these new kids showed up

02:33 <DrJoeTron> these are constant offenders
02:33 <Lucifer_bed> maybe the reason the community "stays small" is because we don't put up with the punk-ass bullshit other communities put up with?
02:33 <Lucifer_bed> (I put "stays small" in parenthesis because every measurement we've taken shows growth)
02:33 <DrJoeTron> "sorry, OMG FUK U CLOSER FAGGET"

02:33 <DrJoeTron> "Y HE CLOSE ON ME"
02:33 <Lucifer_bed> "I closed on you because I wanted the point"
02:34 <DrJoeTron> yup
02:34 <Lucifer_bed> I don't "play open".  Let 'em run up a poll
02:34 <Your_mom_arma> I always just figured it was just a bastardization(wow, I spelled that wrond and spell check corrected me) of tunneling 
02:34 <DrJoeTron> and then they play the honro system
02:34 <DrJoeTron> DOOD ITS ABOUT HONOR WITH OPEN CAUSE ITS SOO LOW RUBBER
02:34 <Your_mom_arma> it managed to miss wrond

02:35 <DrJoeTron> I'm cool with that personaly
02:35 <Lucifer_bed> I think it takes a lot more skill to get out of a closed maze than an open one :

02:35 <ghableska> heh
02:35 <Lucifer_bed> and I've seen it done, and done it....
02:35 <DrJoeTron> _Sticky_ all i can say to you is this
02:35 <DrJoeTron> if you don't agree with it
02:36 <DrJoeTron> thats perfectly fine
02:36 <DrJoeTron> you also don't have to play there :)
02:36 <DrJoeTron> theres many other servers for you to chose
02:36 <DrJoeTron> oose
02:36 <Lucifer_bed> I don't play there because joe keeps telling me about all the smegheads I don't want to play with that play there
02:36 <DrJoeTron> yup
02:36 <_Sticky_> i agree you should stop players bullying others into playing how they do...i just dont think you should punish the victims
02:36 <DrJoeTron> what victims?
02:37 <DrJoeTron> they all say they're victims
02:37 <_Sticky_> the ones who say sorry
02:37 <DrJoeTron> they aren't victims
02:37 <DrJoeTron> they do it with pride

02:42 <DrJoeTron> if its going to bring crazy 12 year olds on big brother hand me down computers
02:42 <DrJoeTron> i have counter strike for that crap
02:42 <DrJoeTron> which is what shrunkland has turned into
02:42 <_Sticky_> naa it is a problem...particularly for us fortress players who cant get a decent game for 2/3rds of the day
02:43 <DrJoeTron> go outside :V
02:43 <DrJoeTron> btw you were the one with the wiimote to pc correct?

02:46 <Lucifer_bed> I think when the network doesn't work, it should be called a netbroke
02:46 <_Sticky_> so i can connect it to my pc and play with it
02:46 <DrJoeTron> haha
02:46 <DrJoeTron> get the classic controller with it too then
02:46 <DrJoeTron> its 20 dollars

02:49 <DrJoeTron> wow
02:49 <_Sticky_> yeah the wiimote is £32 so $64
02:49 <DrJoeTron> oh god
02:49 <Your_mom_arma> I blame the weak American dollar 
02:49 <DrJoeTron> yeah thats right

19:43 <epsy> if it's possible we can create totally new gameplays...like « finite » rubber, as of rain's idea, and have a health recovery zome for each team
19:43 <MrBougo> but i read some stuff about rubber refill
19:44 <epsy> ...we can also add fortress to that :)
20:02 <MrBougo> ...we can also add fortress to that :)
20:03 <epsy> ...we can also add fortress to that :)
20:06 <MrBougo> ...we can also add fortress to that :)
20:06 <epsy> ...
20:06 <MrBougo> ...we can soon eat fortress in chat :(
20:07 <MrBougo> ...or not
20:08 <epsy> i love how center_messages over more lines are displayed
20:13 <MrBougo> "over more lines"?
20:13 <MrBougo> can you send multi-lines c_messages?

20:22 <epsy> with what ?
20:22 <vinavil> epsy: html
20:22 <luke-jr_work> vinavil: HTML for appearance is obsolete
20:22 <luke-jr_work> vinavil: HTML defines content, not how it appears
20:23 <epsy> vinavil, what do you want what to do ?
20:23 <vinavil> luke-jr_work: i like it for appearance too :)
20:23 <luke-jr_work> vinavil: HTML should never be for appearance
20:23 <luke-jr_work> CSS is for appearance
20:23 <vinavil> epsy: a page with an image in centre
20:24 <epsy> is this image content or background ?
20:24 <vinavil> content
20:24 <P4> did i quit? what was the reason?
20:24 <epsy> P4, no you didn't
20:24 <P4> ok, it was then tunnel connection drop :|
20:25 <epsy> text-align: center; in css
20:25 <luke-jr_work> epsy: that's for text
20:25 <epsy> ...altrough it doesn't work on ie :/
20:25 <luke-jr_work> vinavil: center vertical, horizontal, or both?
20:26 <vinavil> both
20:26 <luke-jr_work> for horizontal, use margin: auto
20:26 <luke-jr_work> for vertical, you can't really
20:27 <vinavil> indeed vertical is the problem
20:27 <luke-jr_work> margin-top: 50%;
20:27 <luke-jr_work> padding-top: -<half-of-image-height>;
20:27 <vinavil> trying
20:27 <luke-jr_work> actually
20:27 <luke-jr_work> no
20:27 <luke-jr_work> top: 50%;
20:27 <luke-jr_work> margin-top: -<half-of-image-height>;
20:27 <luke-jr_work> position: absolute;
20:28 <luke-jr_work> or position: static;
20:28 <wrtlprnft> why so complicated?
20:28 <luke-jr_work> 'static' will keep it centered even it the page is scrolled
20:28 <luke-jr_work> wrtlprnft: because CSS lacks means to auto-margin vertically
20:28 <luke-jr_work> wrtlprnft: also lacks math
20:29 <luke-jr_work> I'd love to say "top: 50% - (height / 2)"
20:29 <epsy> same here
20:29 <wrtlprnft> body, html {margin:0; padding:0; height:100%;} body { display:table-cell; vertical-align:middle; text-align:center; }
20:29 <luke-jr_work> wrtlprnft: that centers the page, not an image
20:29 <vinavil> height 100% is not valide
20:29 <luke-jr_work> vinavil: wtf?
20:30 <epsy> vertical-align doesn't work on firefox, btw
20:30 <luke-jr_work> firefox is buggy
20:30 <epsy> ...and used by 20% of ppl
20:30 <luke-jr_work> wrtlprnft: text-align doesn't affect block elements, btw
20:30 <epsy> and, guess what
20:30 <epsy> there's one even worse getting 78% of ppl
20:32 <luke-jr_work> :p
20:32 <luke-jr_work> KDE4 should fix things up a bit

21:30 <vinavil> we should build up a tutorial server
21:30 <epsy> agreed
21:31 <epsy> but we need someone to do it >.>
21:31 <P4> tutorial is good idea
21:31 <epsy> i would think about hints coming each 30 seconds, or more
21:32 <epsy> not sure about this, through
21:32 <P4> it would be annoyin :}
21:32 <epsy> not as munch as that
21:32 <P4> maybe some maze with rooms for different modes (styball, rubber, fortress, sumo)
21:33 <P4> or race ;)
21:33 <epsy> if we get the right delay between hints it wouldn't be annoying
21:33 <P4> yes
21:33 <P4> and hint's got to be different ;)
21:33 <epsy> of course ! lol
21:34 <P4> console mesages can explain tactic more briefly ;)
21:34 <epsy> hrm...i should realy get to buy a server
21:34 <epsy> *really
21:35 <vinavil> what about a place where you play different styles in different rounds with bots programmed for some specific moves? maybe with messages when you fail the move or useful tips. also it could be one round in spec and one playing.
21:36 <epsy> yeah...we should just incorporate such a gesture recognition system...
21:51 <P4> spect mode would frighten
21:51 <P4> ...noobs quickly
21:52 <P4> that server also could be pwnd by pros ocasionally ;) or more frequent, depends on niceness :)
21:52 <epsy> no
21:53 <epsy> no, no, no and no
21:54 <epsy> pr0s should be warned only to being there to HELP N00BS
21:57 <madmax|pt> that kick to spec idea would be good
21:57 <madmax|pt> and *keep* in spec for some time
21:57 <epsy> force-to-team feature could be intresting as well
21:58 <mkzelda> kick to spec could even be the fix that would avoid the need for a noob server
21:59 <epsy> meh ?
21:59 <mkzelda> or at least delay it
21:59 <epsy> making a noob-server is to prevent them being kicked for not knowing the gameplay they play
22:00 <mkzelda> ya i understand that, but adding the kick-to-spec feature to all servers would be something could could be done much more easily and quickly than a noob server
22:00 <mkzelda> it'd certainly make the game more friendly
22:00 <epsy> no
22:00 <mkzelda> instead of FUCK OFF, STUPID NOOB FUCK, GRIND YOU ASSHOLE NOOB, LEAVE!!! GET OUT OF HERE
22:01 <mkzelda> you could call it the 'bench'
22:01 <epsy>  instead of that, he gets kicked only to the game, not to the server,
22:01 <epsy> but that's even worse -.-
22:02 <epsy> ok, we're happy
22:02 <epsy> but that n00b, what does he do ?
22:02 <epsy> he's there to play
22:02 <mkzelda> i dont see how making someone leave a server entirely w/o being able to watch and see how the game is played (and banning them) is worse than more politely removing them from the team
22:02 <mkzelda> at least then they still have the option to leave
22:03 <epsy> isn't he there to play ?
22:03 <mkzelda> of course, but him being there to play doesnt mean that he gets to kill everyone
22:03 <mkzelda> on the same team
22:03 <mkzelda> and ruin the game for everyone
22:04 <mkzelda> that argument doesnt help the either of our cases cause its agreed on both
22:04 <epsy> give him a way to learn then
22:04 <mkzelda> exactly
22:04 <mkzelda> thats what im saying
22:04 <mkzelda> why would you kick him off the server and ban him
22:04 <epsy> he'ill get bored and leave arma if we do that
22:04 <mkzelda> he's already forced to leave it
22:05 <mkzelda> once he watches X rounds or X minutes he can rejoin
22:05 <mkzelda> instead of being banned from the server
22:05 <mkzelda> for X minutes
22:05 <mkzelda> not everyone will be bored of waiting for a few rounds
22:05 <madmax|pt> not sure if new players would gladly join a server for new players
22:05 <mkzelda> some will, and they'll have the choice
22:05 <epsy> ok, such votes could be welcome i think
22:06 <epsy> but they will need a noob-server for practising
22:06 <mkzelda> ya i think both are great ideas
22:07 <mkzelda> but i cant agree that a noob-spec-vote would be more harm than the way it is now
22:07 <madmax|pt> and that server would be mostly empty i guess
22:07 <mkzelda> how bout after 2 noob-spec-votes it kicks u into the noob server
22:07 <mkzelda> i mean, after being kicked to the bench twice or 3 times
22:07 <epsy> madmax|pt, wait'n'see
22:08 <epsy> heh, this makes me think of some bug i got when timing out
22:08 <mkzelda> the noob server should show up #1 on the list until you visit it once, once u go there it changes NOOBSERV=1 to NOOBSERV=0 and then it wont show up top of the list anymore
22:08 <mkzelda> you could do it by 'score' value
22:08 <mkzelda> jack the score value of the noob server up high on default installations
22:09 <mkzelda> 405
22:09 <epsy> score is calculated by clients
22:09 <mkzelda> exactly
22:09 <epsy> what about default server bookmarks
22:09 <mkzelda> which is why in your default installation's config u have that value up higher than the rest
22:10 <mkzelda> then anyone who doesnt want to see it at the top of the list can '-' the value
22:10 <epsy> i see
22:10 <mkzelda> or, it can be made to do so upon visiting hte server
22:11 <mkzelda> tho theres some potential for abuse if that code is allowed, cause other servers could use that to jack their value up
22:11 <mkzelda> i wonder if thats possible now
22:12 <mkzelda> it'd be similar to wrtl's server that changed your cycle colors and player names
22:12 <epsy> well, we have such a system
22:12 <epsy> server bookmarks
22:12 <epsy> we just need to ut it in a better place in the menus
22:12 <epsy> *put
22:13 <mkzelda> i quit using bookmarks cause the servers ips always change and the delete didnt work properly in some versions
22:13 <epsy> the only one in my bookmark list which changes ip all the time is ctwf
22:14 <mkzelda> i didnt find it saved me much time, cause any time saved was lost maintaining the list

22:14 <epsy> yeah, it's hard to manage that list...
22:15 <mkzelda> plus, unless its changed since i last used it, it doesnt poll users
22:15 <mkzelda> so i join empty servers
22:15 <epsy> that's the other point i would mention
22:16 <mkzelda> i really wish i had more time
22:16 <epsy> but i think it wouldn't be that complicated to make a server browser with them
22:16 <mkzelda> i could contribute a lot of these things
22:16 <mkzelda> if i had more time
22:16 <epsy> if i knew c++
22:17 <epsy> (bah, i still hack some sh*t here and there)
22:17 <epsy> *i can still
22:17 <mkzelda> ya
22:17 <mkzelda> i bet you could pull the server poll out of the server list browser and patch it into the bookmarks fairly easily

22:18 <vinavil> all this work because of some rude players who cannot spend 2 minutes to teach a new player how to play. they have the game for free, they have the service of servers for free, but they cannot help the community to enlarge itself friendly. great zeus! i say.

22:19 <epsy> but it's hard for them to get what i say in the « chatflood » on servers like ctwf
22:19 <madmax|pt> #lastseen route
22:20 <epsy> and they generally don't even look at chat board
22:20 <armabot> madmax|pt: timed out

22:21 <epsy> route is ct, isn't he ?
22:21 <madmax|pt> i remember route from a long time ago
22:21 <madmax|pt> didnt see him on ct though
22:21 <vinavil> just use "playername: press s to talk", then explain him/her about teams/grind/split and ask for feedbacks, and that is all folks
22:21 <epsy> we're probably not speaking of the same one then :P

22:23 <epsy> you need to type, too
22:24 <vinavil> both?
22:24 <vinavil> heh
22:24 <vinavil> best way is to set some instant chat and use /msg
