    A small problem

    Warden can make that call. CT's should allow a 1-second window for delay and such. If T is queued first then T should stop when warden starts to talk.
  2. I like it. But of course it should log/restrict being the first warden, not just being warden in general. @@Starbuck

    Keyloggers can easily work on any machine, it's just a simple program that runs in the background. There's really no hacking or exploiting that occur so even a decently made keylogger can be difficult to detect. Most known keyloggers will be detected anti-malware programs. But another thing you can do if you think you may have picked one up is to watch your network activity. A lot of times a keylogger will save up to a 1MB file (which is a lot of text) then shoot it off via FTP. Or, the keylogger itself may parse the info itself and only report what it suspects is a password - in the case check your network activity in the moments during and after when you put in a password online. There's different types of RATs and they range from easy to hard to install and easy to hard to detect. A simple RAT may be a program in running in the background just waiting to receive a command, either directly or by querying an online resource. Like the keyloggers, these can be hard to catch, for the same reason. A more advanced RAT is much harder to get installed on a system because it must integrate with the I/O of the system, and the video driver if the remote user want video. Anti-virus and anti-malware will catch some of these RATs. As I usually say, as an individual users you're safer than you think. Viruses and malware cause headaches and slow us down. Most of them end up being phishing or credit card scams. Unless you pissed someone off, or they know you have some good data that they want, most black hat hackers aren't going to target individuals - it's not worth the time or the risk.

    I know who it is now. He's asked for it to stay private. I do very much like it but there's a thousand other things I'm sure I'd love. My artistic ability ends at 48x48 pixel icons for programs I develop lol (and most of those are already images I just shrink and modify lol)
  8. I do understand. And this is exactly what Aegean wants to clear up.
  9. I was never here for old JB but +1. I know I'm know to be a "hard ass" but that because I enforce and argue the rules as written. If those rules weren't there, I wouldn't enforce them, simple as that. Less rules, more fun game. +1
  10. So if a T in a stack has a gun you just taze everyone? No, you tell them to unstack. If a single T in a stack is doing something wrong you don't punish everyone, you figure out a way to deal with the rebel. That's the point.
  11. Again, as written, I and the other T's did nothing wrong and should not have been muted. I mean, I could make an abuse thread if you want, but I decided to just discuss the matter. Frankly I was just throwing it all out there but you seem to be taking this personally for some reason. Chill out man.
  12. The same reason any thread is made, to discuss the topic.
  13. Jihad has sided with me on this and Aegeans says we're both right in a way. Aege-poo said he'd update MOTD to make the rule more clear. But, as written, I did nothing wrong by mic spamming and should not have been muted.
  14. How can one rebel by mic spamming if not to delay orders? That's really the only thing mic spamming can be used for to rebel. Orders were to unstack, which we were. We could have been killed if you wanted. No need to mute everyone.
  15. It's not a loophole, it actually is the rule. This was added to prevent this exact situation. T's can micspam if in sight of CT's - that's the rule, not a loophole.
  16. Exactly. I was mic spamming to rebel. That's the point. And orders were to go to stairs, I started spamming while moving to stairs. I wasn't hurting myself (or delaying anything) because that was still the only current order. Say "talk over warden rebel" then kill me if I continue. Don't mute all the T's because 1 person is spamming.

    My avatar won't load. What do? It's just the broken image link icon thing.
  18. MOTD says "A T can spam his mic to rebel if he is seen by CT's at the time of spamming (unless it is incoherent and pointless yelling)" (See MOTD here, look under "Mic policy"). Just a few moments ago @@Fair_Sirs muted all T's because I was spamming mic. I, along with most the other T's, were still in cell block at the stairs in sight of all the CT's. I was only spamming for about 3 seconds before Fair muted all T's. I used admin chat to tell Fair that we should not have been muted and @@PapiChulo defended him because "It interfered with the day." To which my response was "well that's the whole damn point." If a T is mic spamming and is not in sight of CT's then he should be muted and warned. If a T is spamming in sight of CTs then it's the wardens responsibility to call "talk over warden rebel." And, under only a couple situations, should the whole T team be muted for one T spamming. @@Jihad @Aegean!

    Well in the rules I said it didn't need to be public. If they chose not to then that was their choice, not mine.

    Macs are Unix based so it is only slightly harder to get viruses on them. But, because of the Unix platform, if you do get a virus on your Mac and can do infinitely more damage than a PC virus. Also, there are in face more PC viruses that Mac viruses, simply because 85% of the market is PC - when someone make a virus they want to affect as many people as possible.

    Download and install Microsoft Virtual Machine (it's free). Install Windows on the virtual machine. Make a backup of the virtual hard drive. Do all your torrenting, porn browsing, and suspicious stuff on the VM. When it gets a virus just delete the virtual hard drive and copy the back up back into place. #winning
  24. If you have an AMD CPU get an AMD GPU. If you have an Intel CPU then get nVidea or AMD doesn't matter. Get a good quality card; Gigabyte, MSI, EVGA, XFX, or Asus. Do NOT get two cards for SLI/Crossfire. You'll obviously spend 2 times the money for only about 1.3 times the performance. (Contrary to popular belief SLI and Crossfire does NOT double your GPU power). If you wanna spend twice as much, then spend twice as much on a single card, you'll get more kick per dollar. Also, get something that's PCI Express x16 2.1 or 3.0. Even if your current mobo doesn't support it (say it only is PCIe x16 2.0) it will be backwards compatible. Getting something current will ensure a longer life for upgradability and performance. You can use this site to compare cards: Hardware Compare: Graphics Cards & SSD Comparison
  25. * you were CT banned, but your "ban reason" for this thread was my kick, not your ban
