alchemi2 Posted February 11, 2008 Share Posted February 11, 2008 No WOL finally went off and wasn't fixed in December 2005. EA email me saying there was no longer a call for WOL servers and they would no longer be maintaining them.So the only way to get Emperor now online is via here not with the game.Is Xwis still operational for Emperor when you try and check who's online for it, it just takes you to Fed2k front page.So Ra server is only way for new players and they have to find here here first.

Egeides Posted February 12, 2008 Share Posted February 12, 2008 I am still flattered that you like me NaMpI wonder how much time it'll endure ;)I am going to receive a gryphon by mailorder Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nampigai Posted February 12, 2008 Share Posted February 12, 2008 @gryphonyou should try mailorder - cheap, and when they bore you, you can throw them away or force them into prostitution. regarding my schooling, I can't count to ten so you do the math.@EgeI'll always have a crush on gryphon - he's such a nice looking young man, and sweet too or so his cell mate told me.

Dunenewt Posted February 12, 2008 Share Posted February 12, 2008 Okay, yesterday we had 88 posts, so if we had that many every day for a 30 day month, that would be 2640 posts a month, which is quite a good number to me! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gunner154 Posted February 12, 2008 Share Posted February 12, 2008 With people coming back to post, it's no wonder why we're getting optimistic numbers. But if it's decreasing at a decreasing rate, doesn't that make it a logarithmic decay function? ??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunenewt Posted February 12, 2008 Share Posted February 12, 2008 Well if its decreasing at a decreasing rate, then surely eventually it'll stop decreasing, and eventually increase? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gunner154 Posted February 12, 2008 Share Posted February 12, 2008 Well, if it were quadratic or cubic function that would hold true, but in the case of logarithms and exponential functions... no. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunenewt Posted February 12, 2008 Share Posted February 12, 2008 Ah I see, so eventually the amount that its decreasing by will become negligible, but it'll never be zero. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egeides Posted February 12, 2008 Share Posted February 12, 2008 yes, and we will only come to complain of arthritis while typing or lack of teeth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunenewt Posted February 12, 2008 Share Posted February 12, 2008 Ah, I think there will be an increase in posts before then. I expect more people will check back on the site and see that we're posting more, and they in turn will post more, and so on. At least I hope so. I haven't seen Acriku, Nema or a few others post much in a while, so hopefully when those kind of people return, they'll become regulars again.

Edric O Posted February 13, 2008 Share Posted February 13, 2008 I'm going to sign up to this drive to increase forum activity. We've had 88 posts yesterday and 76 posts today so far, which makes yesterday the most active day since January 18, 2007 (with 93 posts).

Andrew Posted February 13, 2008 Share Posted February 13, 2008 Maybe create an RSS feed of new threads/posts?It could make it easier for people to be notified of new stuff without having to come to the website to see for themselves.Or am I missing the RSS feed?

Dunenewt Posted February 13, 2008 Share Posted February 13, 2008 Who can post news on the main page? There's a few things that we could post on there such as a couple of Dune mods, one for Renegade, and one for Tiberium Wars, which would show people we're active, because there's not been any news in a while.

gunner154 Posted February 13, 2008 Share Posted February 13, 2008 The fact that many of us are coming back to post here is already a promising sign. Now that reminds me... where's the yeti?News updates and all that would be nice, though I'd say the forum holds a bigger priority here.

Dunenewt Posted February 13, 2008 Share Posted February 13, 2008 We haven't had much news from Mahdi either...has he been killed by a Stingray down under?Does anyone still talk to any other forum members? I have SirSard and a few others on MSN, so I'll see if I can get them back.

gunner154 Posted February 13, 2008 Share Posted February 13, 2008 Fed2k members on my contact list are dead contacts. To begin with, I almost never chat with anyone on MSN. It's more of a way to keep in touch, minus opening a chat window.Bad habit, I know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew Posted February 13, 2008 Share Posted February 13, 2008 Mahdi got back from Australia about a month ago or more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sneakgab Posted February 13, 2008 Share Posted February 13, 2008 Things seem to be livening up nicely indeed. The logarithmic decline was an apt description for a while, but I suspect that this sudden jar in the graph doesn't follow any graphical form:DTried to liven up PRP a bit with my own thread, only to find the topic possibly becoming assasine even to myself. My apologies if that was the case, but you can't blame a man for trying right? On that note, I clearly lack the originality of PRP topic making of others so hopefully Edrico and the like can ''come up with the issues'' as they have always done. I am much better at arguing a point that coming up with one lol.''Fed2k members on my contact list are dead contacts. To begin with, I almost never chat with anyone on MSN. It's more of a way to keep in touch, minus opening a chat window''The quandary of isolation. Ever been in a situation where you're trying to gather people up for an event (just LANs for me) but the only people you know only know other people you know? :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew Posted February 13, 2008 Share Posted February 13, 2008 I only contact fed2k msn people on my list if it is absolutely necessary. But this is the same with any of my msn contacts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nemafakei Posted February 13, 2008 Share Posted February 13, 2008 "I only contact fed2k msn people on my list if it is absolutely necessary"Absolutely necessary? Um...Andrewabc says:Â Â Hlp am being hld by Al-Q trsts. Nd to cnvnce thm am on their side. Nd some gd Arbc phrases! Nema Fakei says:Â Â Hm, well, there's the glossary in the back of Dune, that's got a few words in it. I think I recall a few choice passages in House Harkonnen, too.Dante says:Â Â Look, I've read the prequels, and I know some people like them, but they are horribly innacurate. There's no way you can rely on them!Egeides says:Â Â They can write fanfiction as anyone else, but if they decide to do this they should not present/promote it as something else. It can be good, it can be bad, but not "what the original author wanted to publish, just as his material".Mahdidla says:Â Â That's not entirely fair.MrFlibble:Â Â Wait till you see the Russian translation...Andrewabc: Plz hlp!!!Nema Fakei says: Â Â Names and words originating in a foreign language can be garbled by a bad transliteration as well as just the literary merit, of course.Dawidu says:Â Â The ones in romanian were translated quite good.Andrewabc has been disconnected.
