I was reading till I got to there. If you're going to make claims please do your research kthxbai.

 There's still a time limit to delete. I'm pretty sure you have to be a week old to delete. Plus who would sacrifice their regular account just to get a kill in?

General Discussion / How is this acceptable?

Quote from: RettoPressgang has worked the past three times I just tried it on Commanders.
All I know is that the code up for download right now definitely shouldn't work:

$peasants = pressgang()*$user[peasants];
$user[peasants] -= $peasants;
$user[seatrp] += $peasants;
saveUserData($users,"networth seatrp peasants");


Your pressgang() function is great, it's the routines that call it that appear to be broken.

 I identified the bug (pressgang) awhile ago and would take 2 seconds to fix.

And I would do it. If Retto doesn't want me to touch the code then he can IM me and I can help him.

Polling / How do you get to RWL?

Quote from: The Lady ShaelHehe...^_^ "Um, it...uh...improves my mathematical and logical thinking skills...while, um, battling furry animals just like me..."

Well, but seriously, there's probably some extent of educational value in there...
There is a lot of math involved though. Unless you play on gut reaction or whatever though. Though it does use a lot of Junior High math concepts, especially ratios.

Bugs / 'Nother bug
January 22, 2005, 11:57:04 AM
 
Quote from: wolf biteOh please. Beatles could have in game mailed not to mention a ton of other ways, besides what he did. He could have told me he was working on a bug, then did it. Would he respect people doing the same on his server? He should treat people as he would wish to be treated. This is not the signs of a person that is working WITH us.

Seems your objection is to my one line statement which is fully true and was needed to explain that had happened.



I told people who made the post. I said he found a bug. I said that the reason there is a player with extreme net is because that bug was exploited. I said that he should have just told us.  All true facts. Do you see an insult, I don?t.

Why do the ADMINS of FAF feel they have to attack every action we take on RWL that could possibly be taking in some way as an insult, when RWL and the RWL Admins are freely bashed on FAF?

*shrug*

It definitely has a negative tone. And he could have kept it secret is what I'm saying.

Whatever.

Bugs / 'Nother bug
January 22, 2005, 10:41:46 AM
 
Quote from: wolf bite1)   Beatles already new the bug existed because both games are working off the same basic code.
2)   If he did want to ?test? it he could have only done it once, not made himself a net of $440,000,087,260,280.
3)   Exploiting a bug to that extent can only be to show an attempt to but down our site.
4)   He posted the bug in open domain so we are vulnerable until it is repaired.
5)   As an admin of his own game, he would not appreciate people overexposing his bugs.
6)   There are a lot of ways for him to contact us if he really wants to be a ?coexisting? game.
7)   As a banned member and an Admin of a forum, he should have respect and understanding. Not make proxies and fake accounts to get around a ban. I am sure he would appreciate people not doing that to him.

Maybe you didn't understand my point about it being the same bug more or less. Retto never releases the code so there is no way to know if he had fixed it without testing it. Also, if he was truly trying to take down the site he could have nuked everyone. All he did was demonstrate it can be used to give you an insane amount of net and deleted himself.


Also, this bug is easily fixed by adding ONE LINE OF CODE. It's not overexposing some fundamental flaw in the game. It has an easy fix, and would take Retto a second to fix it:

$prdlst = array();


Also how is he supposed to contact you if you don't want him on your  forum. Send telepathic messages?

By simple logic of extension, if you have to make sure people can't initialize values in bldlst and trplst, you should check prdlst too. ;)


Someone delete that please. Nevermind, already did.
For those of you that don't know, that was beatle's proving he found a bug by exploting it rather then just telling us.

Wolf, I know you're going to want to jump on this one so you can make Beatles out to be a bad person again but what he did was:

1) Find bug
2) Test bug (hey maybe Retto might have fixed it cause it was essentially the same thing and there's no way to check because Retto has never released his code)
3) Confirmed it, then deleted the account that tested it.

He didn't buy out the markets, hit anybody, make himself an admin, or anything. Simply tested a bug and deleted his account.

Quote from: wolf biteA few note, calling people and things names, even if they are not on this site are not allowed.

The FAF Team seem to be trying to promote a coexisting game without putting down this one. More features does not necessarily make it better, only different. Also I checked and they are linking RWL in their credits.

This Admin will not delete this topic if the FAF stay polite and don?t use our forum for their game events. I can?t speak for the other Admins.

Thank you, that was exactly my point. This game is another option for devlopers and players with some different features.

Also, who are "you guys"

The person who posted the link is not a developer. He is a member of the community who feels that the game is a fun other game to play.

Sorry, not everything revloves around RWL.

It's just a feature list.

It explains quickly some of the changes from QMT promi and some of the bugs we fixed. So that people who know other versions of Promi can figure out some of the things that make this different than other promisance games.

FAF and RWL are different games and they can coexist.

Quote from: Gen. VolkovFor one thing.. you are automatically marked as offline if you are inactive for too long.
It's really trivial to write something to refresh the page every 5 minutes.

Here it is in a nutshell:

EDIT: I deleted the code because the admins have enough trouble but it was like 7 lines of html

Polling / Meat or no meat?

Quote from: windhoundAtkins is horrible..  so unbalanced

As said, you can get everything you need from yer vegies, you just have to watch..  though you need to watch with meat too..  

www.peta.org
extremely bias site, but some good info..  Tea of Persia is right in that it takes quite a bit of grain to feed animals..

Quote?Valuable water and land resources are squandered for meat production, while the planet?s 800 million malnourished people could be fed if these resources were used to produce plant foods."  ?More than 840 million people in the world are malnourished, yet over 70 percent of the U.S. grain harvest and 80 percent of its corn harvest is fed to farmed animals. The grain consumed by animals could feed 800 million hungry people, according to Cornell University research."
What the (hades) do they mean "squandered"

How do you "squander" water by consuming it?

Newsflash: That stuff comes back. It's not like it disappears or something.

PETA is really just odd.

I'm fine with vegitarians and activists but PETA is not your regular group.
