If you actually check the forums, I am truly sorry. But the Spam has reached a level that is totally unacceptable. The boards at this point have reached a level that is just to much work to maintain. So It will be taken care of Shortly. Here are some stats, we have 1699 users and most of those are not users, we actually have about half of those are actual people registered. The rest are just spambots. Which is way more than one moderator can keep up with. 1:1699 ratio is not even close to a fair fight. So some measures have been taken. Sure they can be seen as extreme. But it was necessary before the problem got any worse. The forum was nothing more than a vulnerability in its current stat :(.
I just updated the program again. Just goto the download page and get it. For those who are downloading this for the first time, you should download Version 0.02 and replace it with 0.03 or else the game wont work.
Here are some changes:
*Bug fixes galore... Should be fewer crashes. Although the speed is still the same. *A slight redesign thats probably not noticable. *You can now view the Matrix capabilities of your character. *You can now view your NPC's if you have any. *All features not yet programmed into the game have been disabled on the menu... Enjoy and tell me what you think so far...
Please note that you need ODBC drivers 3.51 to run this game.So if you dont have it, follow the download link to get it.
Keep in mind that this is just a pre-release, or BETA version of the game. In other words, once you create the player character, dont get to used to it becouse I am gonna be resetting the game world. I am just trying to get an idea of what you guys think of it.
Before signing up, please read the rules on this.
Here are some features: *Registering your character *Logging in. *Searching/Viewing/Editing your profile and other character profiles *Hiding/unhiding your player profile and info *Sending messages to other players *Viewing who is online and who is registered to the game. *Leaving/Joining a faction. *Viewing Tech Specs *Viewing your messages and deleting them *While sending messages, you can send anonymous messages *You can reply and forward messages *You can transform *You can view IC/OOC news * And some other cool stuff.
If there are problems, please remember that this is a BETA version. Infact, I am looking for you guys to find the bugs and keep in mind that all the rules are not set in stone. I am basically trying to mimic http://www.swcombine.com . It is thanks to their inspiration that I am developing this game.
If you have any praise/insult or suggestions/bugs, please post it on the energon-plant forum in the appropriate place.
