That doesn’t mean they won’t lock your thread. They already have locked your previous threads.

If a moderator or administrator has seen fit to lock your thread, take the hint and stop reposting it.

You do.

Topic: Call of Gods / Drop List Viewer Lies

I’ve been saying this in game since they added it. I don’t trust the drop viewer at all. Since they never bothered including the blue and green drops, that necessarily meant that the viewer isn’t telling the full story. It’s also very likely that it’s not tied to the loot table at all, since I doubt they just added an “if” statement to leave an item off the viewer by merit of its color. Follow that line of thought, and it’s possible that the loot viewer is updated by a different person (or at least at a different time) than the actual loot table.

Conclusion: it’s untrustworthy.

Topic: Kongregate / Suggestions

Milestones are fairly simple to cheat, too. I doubt they’re too keen on the idea of taking a financial loss for something players can manipulate dishonestly.

Topic: Kongregate / Raise the level cap

I’m not.

Topic: General Gaming / PC vs Gaming Consoles

I say this: Consoles are better if someone else is paying for the games instead of you.

This makes no sense at all.

Given his age, he probably can’t afford to buy his own console games at a whim and equates PC gaming to endlessly free games (and most of the completely free PC games (as in, no paying advantage) are at a production level far below premium console games (the thing is, premium PC games are also at a high production level).

Still, both have their pros and cons. For the time being, I’ve given up on console gaming because I prefer playing those with friends in person. Most the gamers I play with live too far to regularly get together with, so I stick with PC for now.

Topic: General Gaming / what?

Originally posted by NeilSenna:

A lot of people (children that age up to late teens, normally, but can be anyone) realise that they are not something in the real world, and probably for that reason they try to become it/act it online.

Tough, cool, attractive, whatever it may be.

Related: attractive females who make it a point to have people think they’re either ugly, male, or both. Different motivation, though =p

Topic: General Gaming / what?

He’s talking about the kids who claim they can beat everyone else up IRL, not dominate them in game.

Topic: General Gaming / what?

They don’t actually think they can beat anyone up. Real tough guys don’t need to bully people anonymously online, where there is no risk of physically meeting the other person. Internet Tough Guys are almost always the kids who get picked on in real life.

Topic: Technical Support / a game that no works(this is for developers)

The servers themselves have not been down since the initial outage. The DNS servers that let you know how to reach them just had no entries for them anymore.

Lol, no you can not submit your game automatically to 303 game websites any other place.

This is patently false. There are numerous submission services, and many of them promise a higher count of sites than 303.

Topic: Technical Support / a game that no works(this is for developers)

It’s been two days. Odds are the current problem is part of the first problem. That’s hardly “every morning.” Give them a chance to get a handle on it. If it’s up for a few hours and then down for a few hours every day for the next week, then fine. Freak out.

Exactly. Little improvements like this can go a long way with players. I’m surprised it wasn’t in the maintenance notes.

Makes you wonder if it was an accident.

Topic: Technical Support / a game that no works(this is for developers)

If you are using a DNS server with the correct IP entries, you can still get in. There’s no telling how many or which DNS servers have functional entries right now, though. If you have the individual IP address for your game server, you can get in via some HOSTS file tinkering. All servers are responding to direct IP contact.

Topic: Kongregate / Chat/Profile Developer-Moderator Icon Mix-up

Does it really matter? The level is displayed rather prominently in massive font, so its presence as an icon on the profile seems superfluous.

Topic: Kongregate / Why kongregate doesn't have a Arabic chat room ?

Because history, that’s why they don’t go there. One of the reasons, anyways.

I meant turn the Hebrew chat to Arabic chat. There are no Hebrews on Kong at all.

…wow.

That’s a completely different issue, which Fricknmaniac addressed.

Kongregate isn’t a microcosm of the internet. For example, there isn’t a high percentage of Chinese users (that I’m aware of) on Kongregate but there’s 538 million users on the internet.

I do not understand why there is a Hebrew chat room either. If there are even any Arabs on Kong, they can go there.

…wow.

adv0’s statement already addressed that.

Business days are normal non-holiday weekdays, i.e. the days when they are in the office.

Topic: Technical Support / The White Screen

Originally posted by AllStarDominatio:

I don’t know if you can reset these on school computers, but if you can, try re-installing the browsers, flash, etc. Also do you everything up-to-date?

This generally is not a good thing to suggest to someone using a school/company computer. Unless the computer belongs to him or he is part of the authorized tech support team that handles updates, he should not be making any modifications to it.

Topic: General Gaming / Submit your game automatically to 303 game sites for free

Don’t forget that the middleman is the one getting paid directly for your game, which leaves a lot of room for exploitation. “Sorry, I can’t pay you yet because you haven’t met the payout threshold on this site.” You’d have to go through the hassle of contacting the other sites and providing proof of ownership to verify such a claim. You might also not find out if your game gets popular enough for a profit share upgrade on another site if it’s tied to the middleman’s account.

They are both hosted on r2games.com, and their servers are having problems.

Topic: Technical Support / a game that no works(this is for developers)

Their login servers are down. People who were already logged in are still playing.
