Starport: Galactic Empires

Wow

Starport was at it's peak in activity around when p4 banged, which was one month before the resource consumption patch. On the first day of that server there were 70 people on, because new permas were such a big attraction. That tapered off, but there was consistently 30+ people on in the afternoon...

Sadism is the only thing that makes sense. Laziness would be if he didn't pay attention to what was going on or make necessary updates(he has taken care of many necessary updates, such as bugs or exploits.) Instead, over an extended period of time, he actively makes changes that he KNOWS people will...

Toonces has made it perfectly clear on a number of occasions. He doesn't care if people quit. He doesn't care if people complain because they disagree strongly with stuff he has done to the game. It used to bother me a lot. I introduced 7 friends to the game, and met plenty of other great people thr...

I can't believe people don't take reasonable precautions with their corp passwords. When I led Atreides' Mafia, the password was always impossible to guess random numbers(such as "92483196" or "25731828") that even I didn't remember after setting it. Whenever someone needed to join, the corp passwor...

lmfao. This is funny BBQ.

VD should have quit years ago when the other skilled players did.

Hahahaha

That should teach you to MURDER people on PK servers! How dare you!

No seriously... VD has to be messing with us. This is too absurd otherwise.

You should be banned for that. It's so unfair to kill somebody who isn't even logged in. You're killing the game even worse than Toonces himself does.

2 kills is not excessive.
Look at the timestamps. He killed the ship, followed by the pod. Nothing unreasonable.
If it bothers you, there is always pax.

Do you really want the administrators going around punishing thoughtcrime?

Feel free to name them. There aren't any "official" names. Just like there aren't any "official" pics.
I just put them together in my spare time, and duece did the same for the new ones.
The numbers of them are the order in which we found and compiled them.

It's pretty straightforward. There are a number of methods to prove it. Some involve limits/calc and some don't. My algebra teacher showed us the following proof. X = .999999...(recurring) therefore 10X = 9.999999...(recurring) Therefore 10X - X = 9.999999...(recurring) - .999999...(recurring) So we...

Well, speaking as someone who has had a computer stolen 2 weeks after purchasing it, I would remind you that possession of stolen property is a crime. If it were MY computer you were trying to break into, I would do all in my power to encourage prosecution, should they ever track it down. Do the rig...

I haven't played through a full game since Diplomacy yet, but I haven't found pirates to be a serious problem after the 4ish hour mark. Just take a strong enough fleet to the pirate base and wipe them out if you can't manage the bounty well enough. On the long games I generally quit and start anothe...

Sounds like you purchased stolen property. Whoever owned this would have taken care of the password before selling or giving it away.

Given: 0 = 0 1: 0^2 = 0*0 2: 0^2-0^2 = 0*0-0^2 3: (0 - 0)(0 + 0) = 0(0 - 0) 4: (0 + 0) = 0 5: xxxxx [/color] Actually, you know what? It is wrong. You cannot divide by zero as this would make the entirety of the statement untrue (or at least undefined/infinity). That is why it is wrong. Jwilson is ...

Seth slides nicely. And it's amazing for defending planets.

Okay okay, i admit, it took me 4 reshields to do it, but it's the result that matters.

Very nice dude.

Very very nice.

I dont believe this one: http://i130.photobucket.com/albums/p244 ... yafter.jpg

For shame!

That really didnt take as long to create as I expected it to, btw.

Nope I said what i intended to, no gibberish

I think I did it correctly...

Never seen anything like that occur.


What version of fraps is this, and where is it downloaded?

you catch the hidden message?

This has already been implemented. The "gas station" is known as "the admirals club".

I'm the pod that recorded it.

You should probably have also mentioned that the volcanic you are sliding is really a greenhouse.

That was another segment of that invasion. I could only record 30 seconds at a time.
