An admin opened up the Admin Control Panel, selected the Ban User option and typed in his member number. But that's not what you're asking. Recent incidents in RWG may have had something to do with it. [ Thursday, June 07, 2007 05:31: Message edited by: Thuryl ] -------------------- The Empire Always Loses: This Time For Sure!

Question about licence in Blades of Exile | |

What I think happened is that Jeff copied the licence for the BoA Editor, did a find/replace to change "Exile" to "Avernum", and forgot to remove the paragraph about the game itself not being released under the same licence. -------------------- The Empire Always Loses: This Time For Sure!

Honestly, the Girdle of Genius is the best belt for a shaper-type as it is. If wearing it meant you could make controllable creations without putting points into their intelligence, that'd just make it even more overpowered.

Seamonkey counts as Mozilla Suite, right? It's essentially the version of Mozilla Suite that's still being developed. Also, Adium is basically Gaim with a Mac GUI slapped on it, so I'm not sure what to vote for on that one. :P I do most of my image editing in GraphicConverter; it's not all fancy like Photoshop or GIMP, but it's easy to use and does what I need it to do. You left out Quicktime Player in question 7, although in practice I try each of QTP, VLC and WMP and use the first one that works for a particular video anyway, since I can't be bothered keeping my codecs up to date for all of them. And on those rare occasions when I need to compress a file, I use YemuZip. -------------------- The Empire Always Loses: This Time For Sure! Posts: 9973 | Registered: Saturday, March 30 2002 08:00 |

I never really bother with either. Gloves of Savagery are pretty much superior in every way to Legs of the Tyrant, and by the time you get the second Blood Poison to make LotT you're not far away from being able to get the Blasted Greaves, which obviate all need for other greaves (except the Flameweaver Greaves for shaping). -------------------- The Empire Always Loses: This Time For Sure!

quote:I'm, uh, hoping they use a different definition of "meme" than the standard one, because in Dawkins' formulation every idea is a meme, and I don't really want to rid myself of all ideas. Lone Flame: All mathematics is created by defining it into existence according to a set of axioms (rules). In this regard imaginary numbers are not different from any other kind of number. Mathematics with complex (real and imaginary) numbers just plays by a different set of rules than mathematics with only real numbers. Mathematics is a human construct: if humans aren't allowed to change the rules when it's useful to do so, then who is?
