That's pretty much this I think: http://smfhelp.org/index.php?topic=63.0

And this is what blid was talking about, the visual karma representation on a per post basis: http://custom.simplemachines.org/mods/index.php?mod=3474

Neither of those are specifically 2.0.9 compatible but would probably be fine with a manual install.

YAH that one with thumbs up and down showing per post.  Add that in and then we've got something.

If everyone is on Combat and the same version, could we then, when we update Combat, use the log-in "checking version" and tell them an update is available, from within the client, and initiate the download/update?

I noticed Player's vote said to block that client and his reason was "It's not hard to download/install war2combat."

That's definitely true.

What are some (non-hacking) reasons people would not download war2combat?  Anyone know?

1
-don't know where to download the client
--but, if they have a version of war2 with server.war2.ru gateway added, they know who we are and should be able to find the download

2
-don't know why their log in is failing
--think they are banned, or that the server is down.
--may decide to try again later, still can't get on, eventually just say forget it
---if so, how can we prevent this?  possible banner ads/warning campaign before blocking that client

3
-like to have original music
--but original music is available on server.war2.ru downloads

4
-i know original war2 was released for apple computers, does that still work?
--if so, banning wrong versions of client could end war2 for apple users unless they install virtual windows for mac

5
-virus check etc, some programs will block war2combat as a program that has not been downloaded enough times or flag it for other reasons
--is this still happening?

6
-Native language versions

7
-anything else??

I understand that.  I renamed the thread title of this thread from "Offtopic from:" to "Discussion from:" to indicate that we weren't casting judgment on Claw's post.

It's a solid post.  I guess they just made some kind of agreement not to have people make a bunch of posts in the poll thread.

ah, smartass, changing the title of this thread i see. if we're playing edits then i simple copied the content of posts from this thread into my previous post in that thread. GG draw

I don't know why I'm a smart-ass.  You asked if your post was off-topic and I agreed it wasn't so I updated the thread title to something more appropriate.  It wasn't a trick!

I guess if you wanted to check both boxes?  Or maybe check one box, and type one comment.

What does that, true or not, have to do with saying Israelis are racist?

In the past I've had smurf names that have played hundreds of games and made a lot of friends with people in the community.

I have lots of names I use, that's just one.  And I played other games with that name that weren't 1v1.

crashman's normal record is now 13/8/0 (0 draws)

Dont take this like a spam or insult, but why are you smurfing when you know it kill game, dont you think people want to see blid and it will motivated them to keep playing instead of smurfing peoples?

I think it is always good for the game to have people that will join games, not ruin them or hack, and who have decent skills enough to keep the game balanced.

I prefer to smurf because I don't like to care if I win or I lose.  If I'm on my own name and I play poorly I feel upset and the game is less enjoyable.
