  1. alexwhin are you interested in only banner exchanges with large companies or basicly anywhere you can get them? i recently installed a banner exchange module on my phpnuke boards, so i would be willing to participate in a banner exchange program with you. just let me know.-dropout
  2. i think it made the mistake of following the instructions exaclty. or if this was another mod i would say he used ezmod. if the mod is fully functional in the subsilver mods, there is a great chance that you did not edit the admin, lang and template files in the theme your currently using, as well make sure you upload appropriate images to the correct theme folder.-dropout
  3. hmm crazy *BLEEP*in $ amount just to own something. ill go with dreamcast, cause it was a 'crazy' system, so they would sell a 'crazy' game like that. interesting to see what worth that $ amount as only the dreamcast had ... dial up online.... im not certain if they even have any servers left.
  4. site has never been suspended, becuase the system works. if your active you get your credits, simple as that. if your not active, you dont deserve your FREE Hosting Account. i admit it was kinda unfair to have no credit for people with all their posts, but if they posted before, they were active then and continue to be. the system is fair, how can you complain about not having access to your data? atleast its there. if they wanted to, they could delete it as soon as your account is innactive. fair system
  5. hacking into websites and other personnal effects of people is illegal, but the theme of this topic seems to be game hacking, which is not illegal. if you own something you have the right to use what you have in the manner you wish. only time hacking is 'against rules' in game wise is when it is against (the now popular) terms of service use on games.
  6. i really was skeptical about them, but when my friends brought their to xbox and a link cable and two copies of halo2... it was awosme. its great cause when you 'own' someone you can taught them right then and there. we stay up all night playing games and if we get tired of it we watch a movie and then back to gaming. it seriously is really fun and you will enjoy it.
  7. Would you go crazy? Probably wouldnt affect me, if they never existed. Would YOU not exist? I WOULD exist. Would you be bored all day? Not sure, find something esle to do im sure. Would you be board at school all day? Would hate research projects, but not sure. Would you be stuck playing board games and stuff all day? Maybe Would you end up working all day? Probably Not Would you be determined to invent computers? Not if they never existed, because i would be unaware of their usefullness Would you keep a computer secret in your closet and use it when no ones looking?... not if they didnt exist... Would you just be a all around idiot? i would probably be less intelligent, because the internet is an open pool of knowledge and exchange of information. Would you drink coffee all day? Probably less cafine, i would get more sleep. Would you sleep all day? Sleep more Would you kill yourself? No Would you be a cop? Not certain Would you be a robber? Not certain Would you be a mugger? Not certain Would you be a regular person? Depends on what 'regular' is Would you like to exist on this earth? Compared to Eath#2? yes i would like to exist on this earth Would you die of boredom? Find ways to entertian myself, as they did before computers. Would you invent games? Maybe, they would be limited. Would you invent more games? Umm, probably less...? Would you think about inventing computers? Not certain, if i was aware of some of their capabilities i would probably try, but not be succesfull.
  8. canada: land of freedoms. examples: downloading music and sharing large files is legal. HDLoader, allows you to back up ps2 games directly onto a ps2 hdd within minutes, legal in canada.
  9. it is advertising. rogers media owns that building and will name it as they see beneficial. i remeber when the 'corel centre' first opened here in ottawa (kanata) it was called.... i cant even remeber, because corel bought it and named in the corel centre. if people do or dont like the new name it will still remain the name and eventually everyone will be calling it the rogers centre.25 million.. thing has lowered in value since the day it was made
  10. same thing happend to me i was above 30 credits and then i ran the upgrade script (which opaque gave me wrong upgrade, he gave me my current package) and it didnt go through right away or something so i ran again and was down to 2.97 days. yay
  11. i am left handed and hate writing, your hand ends up smugging the ink or hits the coils of a notebook. as well i find i have adapted to a right hand lifestyle, have to shift with right hand and use joystick and stuff with right hand, but i still write with my left. so most of the time i can be 'amidextris' or w/e its called (both handed) which is an advantage in some sports. i think a left handed person is much better with their right hand in situations than a righthanded person would be with their left, because we are somewhat required to use our right hands
  12. it wasnt auto when you got upgraded, its just the admin did it himself. but i guess since the community grows its harder and more time consuming to make the changes manually. i was told to use the https://support.xisto.com/ where you enter your forum name and pass it auto upgrades for you. i was given a completion/success message and everything seemed fine, but changes havent taken effect. yet
  13. wow, im surprised people are saying its real. while reading i thought it would be stupid people getting their accounts deleted. o well, even with that 'upgrade' its only a fourth of what gmail offers instantly. i also use trillian pro for my multi clinets messenging, but i still have both msn and aim because i find trillian pro is bad for transfers
  14. ok first off i was approved for an upgrade to the 4th package. i ran the process and it said everything was complete, i went to my cpanel and it didnt change. i waited a few hours and still nothing. i then tryed running the process again and it said needed to be approved by admin for an upgrade. i still dont have the upgrade (showing). is it taking longer, like will i have to wait for next hosting script to run or something or has it not properly gone through? also i dont rember reading something where a process takes away hosting credits, i know some1 asked for a domain chanvge or something and they were notified that it would take 10 hosting credits, but i didnt figure it would cost for an upgrade. before the upgrade i had somewhere around 30 days of hosting and it currently says "HOSTING CREDITS : 2.90 DAYS. " but it is in green (meaning ok) so im not certain wat to think... any help would be appreciated
  15. ethical or not, you can download the torrent of visual studio 6: visual basic 6 and visual c++. one major problem, especially for learning, is that the MSDN files are not included, a section of these files, is the help files. so its best to find a good tutorial online if you dont have the MSDN files. the visual studio 6 takes a ... while.. to download... if your on dial up i wouldnt attempt it

    Phpbb

    i used phpBB for a while, but i always added the modifications and i found almost none were ezmod compatible as well as alot conflicted with eachother, so eventually i screwed up my site enough for it to not allow users to register because it could not find the visual confirmation pictures and there were more errors similar to that.eventually i switched (and am still currently using) phpNuke platinum. it has over 200 pre-installed mods and has some kool themes/skins and is just as versitile as phpBB. you can even get templates and that proted from phpBB to phpNuke. http://www.techgfx.com/
  17. i like using ad-aware but i hated giant anti spyware. it took for ever to scan my files that the other program run through quickly as well it found like nothing and gave the annoying pop up messages when a program went to open IE. i hate having to cvhange a setting in order not to b annoyed. i like ad-aware and webroot: spysweeper
  18. i wasnt reffering to a computer with a virus, my friend had just purchased a brand new computer and there were warning and stuff so, i guess it depends on what the antivirus program defines as a virus. i dont like norton becase of the slow scanning i get with it and the memory it takes. avg i recommend over norton
  19. yes sorry. http://www.yesadvertising.com/ i belive each account is different and the rate varys but mine was like 0.23 or so for each 1000 impressions. so its not a good way to advertise if you have a small community. if you have a small, targetted site, i would go with CPC advertising rather than impressions. but if there is alot of pageviews, impression can make some good $
  20. i find that all sites check to see if the user doesnt just clikc the browser or hit back. it called like the click through rate, so i usually end up getting served hosting packages ads, so people go and click at the different info, and the a percentage of the clickthrough rate is paid to me. krap said: 'google uses text based ads rather than images'. which isnt true. you can choose to have only text based ads or both text based and image ads. with the text based, you can display normally 2 or 3 more ads in the area, but the image ads can be more visual appealing
  21. http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/ has banner ads which are pay per thousand impression. it pays a certain value, depending on ads served, for each 1000 raw impressions you get. raw means it does not have to be an unique ip/id for it to count, but i wouldnt suggest you refreshing continuosly, as well read the TOS
  22. yea it can be arkward, like in most horror movies there is always like some sort of nudity or sex and i dunno i just dont make eye contact with my parents..
  23. couple of things that came to my mind. one of the major problems with downloading illegal software... is allowing a 'test' software to be downloaded, then it is yours to own when you enter a serial key. a serial key is very very easy to get, you can even you google and it will find it. so it were more secure where you had to pay before downloading (ex trillian) then it could stop some people from using cracks. it is possible to find warez but they can be more difficult.as well this is basiclly the same thing as downloading music, in canada a law like this would not pass and if it did, it would have very little effect because the internet service providers are not to disclose any information about what you view/download unless there is like pressing criminal evidence against you with online fraud/hacking. cannot track people if they cant access their stats, so it be a pointless law.
  24. nice march 25.... hmm possibly... just possibly a free game of spider man2. i think i will wait till the price drops, not because i dont want the console or have doubts about its success, its just financially sound to do so, within a year the psp will be like probably at most $250 canadianso ill wait a while, plus more good games come out the longer the system is out
  25. wow, 360... meaning turning around and coming to the exact same spot. maybe they want it to be like the 'all round (360) system). im not certain of that name, it doesnt sound to appealing. id think some like XBOX2 or X? or something might do a little better. they just dont wanna say its version 2 when playstation has its version 3. i think regardless of the name, ps3 will be better.
