Willem not my intension to provoke anyone is just my way of seeing things...

Yes I�m happy :) but in my age I�ve so to many things to do that isn�t enough time to mapping out of office just that...

At least at work lunch gives me sometimes 30 minutes or 60 to make something... 
 
@Spirit, I tried gmsp3 and did not like it. Visually it looks nice but I thought the gameplay was not much fun.

@Trinca, it sounds like you are mapping for other peoples approval and that will always end in you being disappointed. There will always be people who don't like your work and often be quiet vocal about it. If you release something for peer approval you have to accept all feedback regardless if you agree with it or not. 
 
I use to Sock, not anymore now just for fun... but made me stop for 8 month :| 
Tchak 
And after some comments on tchak I also lost some interest in mapping

i went to check the thread to see what you meant, but am quite confused. almost every review seems to lavish it with praise. what was it in particular?

i haven't played the map actually, will check it out. hard to keep track of all the latest releases without a central review site anymore like UWF's site (or going back a bit further, TSQLR). i know all of them end up on quaddicted somehow but it just isn't the same... 
Tchak 
I guess it didn't get enough praise ;) 
 
chif chif was evil Spirit that I love so much and I still do :(

these evil Germans :/ 
 
that reminds me I still have to sent him a bottle of wine... him and Vondur :| fuck I must go to the mail to find out the cost!!! 
Oh Trinca! 
importing the old comments I noticed a problem: How do you properly treat linebreaks for comments and such? I stored with as I got them without realising that they would not be shown by the browser. Should I change them to \r\n before storing? Or should I render them when outputting (how can I detect them in PHP)? 
Spirit 
when i leave a comment or rate a map, is it supposed to bring me to a debug page that just says 'comment added'? is that because it's still in testing? 
 
That is there because I do not really know how to nicely return to the previous site. 
 
haha ok, i'll just open up pages in a new tab so i don't loose where i am. ;) 
Romero 
Has some new-ish Quake stuff on his site (if you are interested):

What Happened To SDA? 
their news page seems to have gone silent... seems like they used to update at least once every week or two. 
 
nakaaaaairrrr is busy with school the others no idear...

But i miss a tournement :| 
Metl 
hardly any demos getting made :/

not much energy in the community lately, it's kinda sad 
 
the quality of you guys push to this :)

how do I for exemple noob can beat any of the times you guys make?

Impossible... I dont get even close to then! 
Hmm 
Yay 
I use nl2br for the linebreaks. Commenting now takes you to the map page again and logging in directs you to your user page (best solution at the moment).

Since making a full-blown search function is way outside my league at the moment some recommendations on server-side filters for the listing would be nice. Since I write these things in the most ugly ways I will only implement things that are not easily done with the javascript filter.

Show only:
-maps/"mods"/speedmapping stuff
-rated x and above
-user rated x and above

PS: I know that I have to implement a fair algorithm to sort user ratings. But http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/web/library/wa-bayes1/ really scares me though. 
 
Quaddicted is getting better and better everday is basicaly the only resort of quake but it ROCKZZZ like any other did!

Thanks Spirit and helpers! 
 
Yeah Quaddicted is pretty solid, props for all the effort put into it. 
Spirit 
To take users back to where they were after logging them in, store the referrer in a hidden field in the login form, then redirect back to that. It may be necessary to encode and / or decode the referrer, I don't quite remember. 
 
I have FF set to not send the referrer, IIRC. Would that still work then? 
Yes 
Not sure if I will do it though. 
Question While On The Topic Of Webmastering 
Who is a good provider which allows me to use FORMMAIL with a cgi-bin folder accessible by the person who is the site owner?
Cause I must be thick cause I couldnt get it to work on my one.com domain.....

Heeeelppp!!! 
Hmm 
Fascists

On the lighter side Stallman has a say.
