If he's lucky.

Just to show you we're not complete tools about the deal. Go have fun on us. Member status changed.

While we are back on the topic of downloads and if you're a new member you'll notice that your downloads have been restricted to just 1 per day. This is temporary until I fix a loop hole which is blatantly being abused. Example: Member X shows up and doesn't know our community from the next. He sees this list of downloads that he wants so he starts downloading. He hits his cap and gets the message that he's not allowed to download any more for 24 hours. So member X says screw you CombatACE I'll go make another account and get more downloads. So he creates another account and gets 6 more. That's not enough so he creates another account and gets 6 more and this cycle goes on and on and on. I've seen our tracking system remove and ban 20 accounts at a time all belonging to the same user. The next day the cycle begins again and will continue as long as the unrestricted registration process is there. The fix to this is to remove the download ability of new accounts which will prevent people from abusing the system. How exactly I'm going to implement this I don't know yet. But I know it needs to be done. The open nature of our downloads has been an issue for a long time. The abusive behavior of the folks that want files continues to cost us an incredible amount every month. As I benefit the community by adding more download speed and ability the abusers threaten to take it away with greed. I have a set budget I work in every month. Once that money is gone, it's gone, that's it I don't get to create a new hosting account and get free downloads. If you're a subscriber you know the benefits I'm talking about. My job is to figure out how to keep them that way and still keep downloads free for everyone else. More to come...

Yes I have never understood that reasoning either. You're trying to catch your flight and you have a million things on your mind then you hit the TSA screening area. Bubba the big burly guy with a wand decides he wants to pat you down. Now you've some strange guy's hands on your junk and your problems went from a million to at least a million and 10. However if they'd allow the young attractive working her way through college girl feel around your inside seam on your trousers your problems immediately drop to just 1 thing. I say they have this all wrong. Plus I'd have an excuse, but honey those are the rules, oh crap I left my watch in the car, BRB.

The design is not dependent on a date or time on the clock. It however tracks the 24 hour clock from the downloads you've already made. If you log in and start downloading files on any given day or hour this is how it works. Download 1) ---> Download Time <-- Datestamp (begin 24 hour countdown) for this example let's say this is 1:00pm on 12/25/13 (5 files left) Download 2) ---> Download Time 5pm on 12/25/13 Download 3) ---> Download Time 6pm on 12/25/13 Download 4) ---> Download Time 11pm on 12/25/13 Download 5) ---> Download Time 12am on 12/26/13 Download 6) ---> Download Time 1am on 12/26/13 You log in again on 12/26 at 7pm and the first 3 files have dropped off your count so you download 3 more files. Your count looks like this now Download 1) ---> Download Time 11pm on 12/25/13 Download 2) ---> Download Time 12am on 12/26/13 Download 3) ---> Download Time 1am on 12/26/13 Download 4) ---> Download Time 7:04pm on 12/26/13 Download 5) ---> Download Time 7:05pm on 12/26/13 Download 6) ---> Download Time 7:10pm on 12/26/13 This is the way it is kept track of in your download record.

That happened to my porn once.

I'm with you on that. Kentucky Bourbon is some of the best there is. I think I hear a bottle calling me now. I have some Parker's Heritage that's about 30 years old that is the best I've had but I'm sure there's better.

Your toilet isn't connected to the internet by chance?

Problem with "Column5" site
Erik replied to socrate's topic in Site Support / Bug Reports / Suggestions
It's no secret I still have some issues left to handle. The recent changes have affected a lot and I'm working through them one at a time. Thank you for reporting this. As mentioned there may be other alternatives however if what you need is only there, it will be back online and working properly as soon as possible. -
And the father of the year award goes to... Me (Sarcasm!)
Erik replied to dtmdragon's topic in The Pub
Don't be to hard on yourself. Many of us have been there, including the time I ran over a special bike. They learn, they grow, they adapt. It's all part of the cycle in preparation for the day someone breaks her heart. Your a great dad you're in her life and you care, everything else is forgivable. Besides there was a day not too long that your accident fed the family and fluffy was dinner the next night. Nobody cried over it then, fluffy or dinner, you decide. Have a beer. I can think of a million other asshats who deserve that title more than you. -
Ok sure. Since the Luftstreitkräfte der NVA operated from 1956 to 1990 you'd obviously be a veteran. If you could PM me a little about your career, (ie years of service, specialty or job while enlisted, unit) that would be terrific. I love hearing the stories of what you guys have accomplished in your lifetimes.

This post was made about an hour after I flipped the switch back on which makes it about 9:40 am CET. Your theory holds no water.

Adding "signature" photos

Our entire site is java based. What a horrible experience we must have been without java. Welcome to the real world. -
Adding "signature" photos
Erik replied to Icarus999's topic in Site Support / Bug Reports / Suggestions
http://combatace.com/index.php?app=core&module=usercp&tab=core&area=signature Use the template editor to add photos and such where you have your system specs now, that's your signature. -
You'll have to choose, you can wear either. It's supposed to be perk for your service and rank if you earned the gold and silver EGA I can change it, if not we have the gold EGA now too. Simple.

A lot of higher end image editors do it. Axialis IconWorkshop is what I use when I have to only because I rarely have to do them and that does just fine. Search the web for .ico editors.

I'll wait to incorporate those until we have verified people who want to claim them. North Korea doesn't even have access to the World by internet I don't think. That's locked down I'm pretty sure. Syria well... access if you have power, connectivity, and a device. Trifectas are hard to come by there.
-
Hard to say, only you can decide. You're right but most don't know that, not an excuse btw, it's just the system gets bogged down with tons of badges and then I have to start asking about rank, then you get into hmmm well should you send me your DD214, oh it gets messy. I can and will make the EGA correction since I was called on it. Thanks. Try me. If we have North Koreans and Syrians on this site I want to badge them the most. No pissing on my parade though with political crap, this isn't about that, it's about pride.

Oh I know where the line comes from ... best horse farting movie of all time. So you want this badge?
