I cleaned up the old one Blind.
[QUOTE=Vilusia;43624533]I cleaned up the old one Blind.[/QUOTE] Winner Winner Chicken Dinner. In that case, on with the show! EDIT: [B]My sides.[/B] [QUOTE=Sophist;43624414]It's being promoted? At the expense of the legitimate, non-hacker's experience? I don't follow the forums all that closely so when I first got wind of Postal purportedly unbanning VAC banned players (read: confirmed cheaters) it strained credulity to say the least. Now it would appear this is in fact exactly what is happening. Precisely what kind of community do they wish to build? One that coddles cheaters and other whining malcontents at the expense of honest players? Why don't we just cut off our noses to spite our faces? I can't believe any serious gaming company would consider this a proper remedy. Keep it up, Facepunch, you'll end up with precisely the community you deserve.[/QUOTE]
[QUOTE=Megaman1811;43622670]You can actually just click submit and go to the ass page on there. Maybe lope should make it so you have to type something in to get anywhere[/QUOTE]
I will clean up ones that are obviously fake or spam every so often. [editline]21st January 2014[/editline] [QUOTE=Megaman1811;43624543][/QUOTE] With the google form it will be required.
[QUOTE=TheKingIsHere;43542422]Except I had those alts for spam since I do free offers on websites or old emails I stopped using. Thats why I did it, took my 1 sec to click register. If you think I spent that half hour making accounts to let you ban you are even stupider then I gave you credit for. Its quite clear I can go undetected on here if I want too, so you can choose to be a moron and ban me..... when I CHOOSE to tell you im here, but yeah like I said nice try pal. You never even banned my first account which I been posting on all day... So go for it tough guy ban this, im bored of it now ill just use my real account and you arent going to do shit about it are you? No you aren't, that's right. Have a good day :v: [highlight](User was permabanned for this post ("gimmick" - postal))[/highlight][/QUOTE] You are an idiot. OH MAN YOU ARE COOL YOU HAVE SIX GMAIL ACCOUNTS You know Postal can just IP ban you right? Speaking of which I know a guy at the IP of 173.194.68.26 and he is a really chill guy but he [I]*might*[/I] have made a few Rust giveaways a couple months ago that [I]*might*[/I] have just been a picture of a penis he drew on paint but he is totally chill so you should definitely unban his IP so he doesn't have to use his Mifi to go on Facepunch
I love that people are actually concerned about this in the Rust forums, as the one quote from last page demonstrates.

[QUOTE=Megaman1811;43622670]You can actually just click submit and go to the ass page on there. Maybe lope should make it so you have to type something in to get anywhere[/QUOTE] I say keep it. Makes the occurrence of the Error page more believable. EDIT: The Rust forums are the gift that keeps on giving. [QUOTE=Enavin;43624877]How in the living hell do you justify promoting a game in alpha by giving away keys? Add to the fact - the people being given keys aren't going to just decide, " Hey, you know what? I should buy this game now!" They just got a free and clear copy of the game, so what in seven hells would convince them to suddenly purchase it? The answer is.. nothing. They have no reason to purchase the game now that they got for free. How is this helping and or building any sort of community?[/QUOTE]
[QUOTE=Jimbomcb;43624731]well done, you sure showed him[/QUOTE] I have extensive experience in internet fights
Google forms thing wont work. It has a whole bunch of Google scripts and shit that I don't really want to touch why can't we be happy w/o recording peoples info
I am fine without people's info. Maybe we can update the error page to tell them to manually contact Postal via Profile Comments or PMs.
Nah it's fine now. how about updating the form to look more like steam.
Heh. [QUOTE=Sophist;43625107]Johnny, I'm a bit perplexed by the conflicting messages coming out of Facepunch. In "Status Report #001" Garry uses the following phrases to describe the unexpectedly massive player base / sales: ". . . our player counts have exploded our wildest dreams," "[we are] shell-shocked by the popularity explosion," and sales have been "[s]tronger than strong." Garry mentioned in his Reddit AMA that sales have topped $5.5 million and Steam's "Top Seller" list would seem to confirm the game's burgeoning popularity. According to their original development plan they already have far more players (and revenue) than they anticipated at this point time. Why then would they take the questionable step of providing previously banned cheaters with free admission back into the game? A substantial portion of the player base, myself included, is fed up with the rampant cheating going on in the game. And to nip in the bud the inevitable comments regarding the game's development status: I am well aware I purchased an Alpha game and that these sorts of problems with cheating are to be expected. However, providing cheaters with free access back into the game is another thing entirely and it should not be allowed or encouraged. If those individuals want to troll and hell raise the rest of us they should at least contribute to the game's development costs by purchasing another copy.[/QUOTE]
Here's a decent Steam form reference for colors and stuff. [IMG]http://gyazo.com/dea533c60fdbae57f42020510d77ab50.png[/IMG]
why does everyone think i'm fucking russian [QUOTE=Ryan C;43625297]Unfortunately, hours later I'm still unable to get my account unbanned. Queue hairy-Russian ass? /facedesk[/QUOTE]
If this doesn't count as content worthy for a third video/chapter, I don't know what does. Postal the Russian-assed man will go down in history.
[QUOTE=postal;43625326]why does everyone think i'm fucking russian[/QUOTE] Now Thats some tyrannical russian style asscheeks right there
Maybe we should have a huge skype call and all laugh at everyone together
Oh god this is amazing. Somebody said they thought the page was a troll, and another Rust user who earlier asked about the page rated him dumb. EDIT: [QUOTE=Ryan C]Hey Blindsniper, I realize this message may seem a bit outlandish, but since you've had success with getting postal's VAC unban to work, I was wondering if I could simply post the information it requires and have you do the actual form? I'm not sure if this would make it more likely to work, but I've been trying for hours with no success. Thanks, ~Ryan[/QUOTE] [QUOTE=BlindSniper17]Sorry bud, I think it's a server issue. If you like though, you could always PM Postal. I'm sure he could help you.[/QUOTE] [QUOTE=Ryan C]Oh, I didn't realize I was able to do that. Thanks, I will do that![/QUOTE] [QUOTE=BlindSniper17]Any luck yet? I'm kind of curious about this issue myself.[/QUOTE] [QUOTE=Ryan C]No responses yet. Frankly, I get the feeling that I'll be lucky if I get a response from him. Are you sure you couldn't try the form for me? It seems that some people try it once and have it work.[/QUOTE]
So what happens if they actually find this thread?
[QUOTE=Snickerdoodle;43625667]So what happens if they actually find this thread?[/QUOTE] They probably don't have the patience to read through the entire thread
since they'll likely go to the last page for the current info (provided they figure out how), we need to change the conversation away from this, so they think we're talking about like, cats or something. that'll really throw them for a loop.
We can just talk about Rust users without bringing up the page. It will fit in with the overall thread and we can still laugh at people's responses to the page without bringing up the updates to it and whatnot.
doing another server subforum cleanout. up to 200 tabs. i wanted to see how long it'd take to refresh all the tabs at once so i hit refresh, but apparently that exact second that fucking Ryan C guy sent me a pm asking for a damn vac unban and all the windows starting getting a fucking popup overtop them. i quickly disabled popup notification and hit refresh again and the browser just exploded. thank fuck firefox can save browser sessions, back2work
Oh god I am sorry
Good luck on chapter 3, you magnificent bastard

New thread for 3 and DDT this one. No one can know its secrets
[QUOTE=RenegadeCop;43626042]Where are those videos for chapters 1 and 2? Or was there only one of them?[/QUOTE] First page
[QUOTE=A_Pigeon;43626019]New thread for 3 and DDT this one. No one can know its secrets[/QUOTE] this is the equivalent of a spy having to take a cyanide capsule so they don't break under interrogation
