is teh hawt ... well, secks. 

Here in about 10 minutes in my time zone it'll be 7/22, the 10th anniversary of Quake.

Meanwhile, I'm working on a semi-serious map and maybe I'll have it done before Quake Expo is over -- or maybe not -- but either way I've really enjoyed learning about mapping in the last year or so, and basically this is a quick thanks to metlslime for maintaining this site and everyone who has helped me answering all the questions I had in the past. 

There's now a "links" page in the menu. What sort of stuff should go on there? As I made this I realized there ought to be some big comprehensive "Slipgate Central" site, but that would be best as an independent entity. And since I don't want to do that, what level of partial comprehensiveness should I aim for?

I considered simply linking to the QuakeOne Navigator, but I'm not sure if that's best either. 

I'm trying to get a huge (the biggest existing) link database online for the new Quaddicted.com.

No idea when the site is done, but if it turns out how I want it, then it would be the solution for all Quake link needs ever. 

I like your short and no-shit link list, it's good to keep it short for newcomers. 

When I read unread posts, it would be quite handy to have links on the page that say "go to next undread messages in thread XYZ," instead of going back to the forum page... is that practical? 

that might be a little weird, but if I do more with RSS on this site, one of the feed might show all unread posts for a user. 

PLEASE DO

would keep me from refreshing the fucking board every 30 seconds ! ;D 

would keep me from refreshing the fucking board every 30 seconds ! ;D

me too :) 

if you refresh that often, surely there is only ever one new post in one thread that you need to look at. :) 

Would it be possible to use some dhtml/ajax voodoo to get the forum page to indicate when new posts are posted? I know there was a page that had that feature while it covered a recent and huge mac event... saved on bandwidth. 

overkill.

I'm looking for an excuse to make something with ajax, but I want something that actually justifies it. 

retroquake is inactive too, btw. 

well both retroquake and ten four are pretty lazy about updating, but they have both reviewed at least one map during 2006, and neither one has said that they are officially closed. So I'll wait a bit longer before proclaiming them dead. 

Is it me or has func become super slow again since a few days? 

it varies depending on how much spam Globat is sending to its customers. 

is taking an absolute age to load recently, but individual threads are the same as always, thought you might want the headsup Metl.. 

These last few days the access became slower and slower... Do you have any idea of what's happening ? Did Anybody notice that, or am I alone to face this issue ? 

 

:< 

But as usual, I don't know anything about it. The hosting seems to get faster and slower at random.

If sleepwalkr still says it's okay, I'm going to move to fov120 when my current hosting plan runs out. 

So I'm not crazy... 

eheh i would like to be in this forum privet msg option :) could be very nice!!! 

How do I cancel my account? 

Ask metlslime to do it for you... or quit this place for ever ;P
