Repeatedly applying the powers of Science™ revealed that Fraxy's music code plain off doesn't like filenames with spaces in them.

Remove those and everything works fine.

I remember running one of those online "Find out if your site is blocked in China" checks (quite) a while back and finding that all sites hosted on my server were consequently being blocked...

I think it was general consensus among the staff - those I asked, at least - to not take any steps in response to the "rule forgetfulness inflicting excitement" as long as the rule-forgetting stays in this thread and doesn't manifest in the form of, say, bumps all over the place.

They have common sense that bumping threads is against the rule

The irony. It burns.

While I'm sorry to hear that, I think you somewhat overreacted by instantly formatting and reinstalling. By the lone virtue of the probability of too large parts of C: being in the process of being rewritten at once being quite low, what likely happened is that, at most, some part of the partition table or C:'s FS metadata broke - which would have enabled you to restore the partition to a near-unharmed state using tools that are floating around the internet. I managed to manually restore accidentally deleted partitions before...

I will take the opportunity to use this empty thread to ask Stark why he hates me...
After all, he never told me why, maybe I wronged him in the past by inadvertance...

You are refusing to get vaccinated against his hatred. That's why.

I was like 7 years old when I picked it. Then, it stuck.

Thanks, everyone.

One of these days, I'll think of a better handle and adopt it. I will.

I didn't know your first name was Sunshine.

Well, the proper first name of the guy who made DJGPP actually was DJ too... in the Americas, it's quite possible.

Awesome!

I can't wait to try this out when it's done.

Is the Assembly tab for inserting ASM hacks? I suppose you could use xkas for that, but I know editors like Hyrule Magic have one built in, which is kind of nice.

Also, will there be any way to edit player and NPC dialogue?

From what I remember, there's no compression used for them that couldn't be tackled by a plain oldschool table tool, so I'd be very surprised if there wouldn't.

While I'm remarkably bad with the game, I suppose being particularly good is not a primary focus, so count me in.

I, in turn, stole the idea from the very first Justus League (way back).

I shall proceed by adding the inevitable extra non-PG violence:

On a small side note, "I suggest X as a moderator", where x is not yourself, is infinitely more useful than "maek me mod nao plz"...

If it was just about that, it could as well be claimed that present staff has sufficient capacities to run this section on its own.

It's about giving you not only a moderator who can do the job, but also one you approve of.

The egg. You wouldn't call it a chicken if it didn't come from one, but a lot of things can lay eggs.

Yeah, especially in this day and age where viruses and spyware could fuck up an unprotected computer in an instant.

Not that serious though , if you have properly set your antivirus program.

I've survived about 8 years of internet life without having any antivirus program, firewall or else running and never caught a single virus as evidenced by a scan I ran from a Knoppix boot once for the hell of it.

I remember another of those "look at the tubes through red goggles" sites similarly reporting the board as being consequently blocked. However, the large amount of Chinese users of sometimes dubious levels of expertise that dropped by in the hacking forums a while back suggests otherwise...

At this university, there's one exchange student from China who's in the Party. She says people at her home university proxy their way past the firewall to get to the juicy political information anyhow and, at least to me, doesn't seem to be much of a fanatical adherent...

Anyway, my presumption would be that the rationale behind the block is not so much actually preventing access to the information as having it banned for the sake of not allowing any public discussion of the topics to take place on the grounds of "look, everyone can read it on the internets anyway".
