I have changed the member and admin menu items so they contain some more useful links. There is now a xi member list and also a registered user list. I have added a set of support forums and forms pointing to them I have changed the Discord block on the home page to be the traditional one I have changed the 'members online in past 24 hours' block on the home page to 'members online now' I have added the XI support image back to the home page linking to the appeal and support forms

So after trying to play newer games on my old gaming laptop (2014 MSI GT70, gtx770m), and finding them borderline unplayable (20fps mid settings) I decided to go all out and build my first desktop gaming pc. luckily I have a buddy from college who lives nearby and has previous experience with stuff. He built a tentative list of parts for me in my budget and I altered a few things here and there. Everything has arrived safely via FedEx and I'm just waiting till Thursday for my buddy to come over and help me build it. I'll post pics once completed. So on to the parts list! First off everything is going to be seated in a Corsair Carbide 400C ATX Mid Tower Case. It has a hinged smoke window on one side for easy access and viewing. My power supply is a EVGA SuperNOVA G2 750W 80. Plenty of additional power ports for upgrades down the line. My motherboard is a Asus STRIX Z270-E GAMING. It is the top end Strix mobo, but not as crazy as some. For now I'll be running 16GB of Corsair Vengance ram (8GBx2 DDR4). Processor is an Intel i7 6700K 4.0GHz. To cool that down I have a Corsair H100i v2 70.7 CFM Liquid CPU Cooler. The graphics card I chose is a MSI GTX 1080 Duke 8GB OC. It comes over clocked from the factory and has three cooling fans. The thing is huge, about the length of my forearm. (There was a sale and the Duke was actually cheaper than a standard MSI 1080) Storage is going to be handled by a 250GB Samsung 850 EVO SSD and a Seagate Barracuda 3TB 3.5" 7200RPM HDD. My case has three SSD slots so I'll probably pick up a 500GB or 1TB SSD down the line. FInally I'll get to see everything through an Asus VG248QE 24.0" 1920x1080 144Hz monitor. What do you all think of the build?

I took a quick look at his snazzy new uniform and decided i didn't want to play after all, i'm sure someone will play with him lol.

Two Men were out fishing when one decides to have a smoke He asks the other guy if he has a lighter He replies "Yes I do!" and hands the other a 10 inch long BIC lighter Surprised the guy asks "Where did you get this?" The guy replies "Oh I have a personal genie." The first man asks "Can I make a wish? " Sure says the other man "Just make sure that you speak clearly cause he is a little hard at hearing" "Ok I will" says the other as he rubs the lamp a genie appears and asks the man what he wants The man says " I want a Million Bucks " The genie says OK and goes back to his bottle and 10 seconds later a million ducks fly over head And the guy says to the other " Your genie realy sucks at hearing doesnt he?" The other man replies "I know, do you really think I asked for a 10 inch BIC"

A Cucumber, you filthy minded gits.

I just can't decide where, i managed to narrow it down to 3 choices...hmm!

for you mr duck

On the note of the website being sluggish we are 33% of the way through re-indexing the posts, this is what is causing the database to lock and the site to crawl at times. It's taken well over 48 hours to get this far so it will be like this for a few more days i'm afraid.

I have 32 Gig Ram and an 8 Gig Video card

Welcome, baby!! :-*

you give me to much credit. 20 seconds? what do i do with the other 8 seconds left

You're just jealous because playing with yourself all day long is a 20 second happening

Shouldn't the freshest chats be at the top of the box so that you can immediately see them, instead of having to scroll all the way down for the latest?

Go to Muff.

Hello all - this is an announcement to give you some warning that we will be doing a major upgrade to the website and what to expect. First of all the why we are making the change - simply the current version is no longer supported for security updates and generally it's just nice to have a revamp every so often. We have had this website for a few years now. So when will this be happening - I am hoping either the weekend of the 25th, this will be a late start on the Friday and working through the weekend - an offline page will be in place during the upgrade to provide any updates. it's a very big upgrade and the process will be split up into a few stages: The initial stage will be to do the core features (such as the forums) which will take around a day of hard downtime Then we need to get the website looking right, so the chatbox, homepage, servers, awards etc. which will be about a day of intermittent downtime Then comes a huge task of rebuilding all of the content, this is an automated process but will take approximately a week before everything looks right. Finally comes the fixing everything 'that broke' time which will be a good few years i'm sure So how about the known problems and changes: If you have a different display name to your login name then you will have to use your display name to log in once the upgrade has completed. If you use either the Facebook or Steam logins this will also stop working - if you know this then send me a PM and we can sort it beforehand or otherwise contact me after.

Cool new early access game. King of the hill style. It's a lot of fun. Can co-oop or group up. Add me if you buy it. http://store.steampowered.com/app/578080/

I bet his cock is a big as an egg. That by far is the largest cock I have ever seen and I have seen a lot of cocks.

That's not a chicken... that's a bloody beast whatever that is. Don't wanna go near that.

Ya, I guess. It was started by Chile and nothing huge there.

LOL Me too but then I started thinking it's gotta be about a chicken, but not this big. That's unnatural lol

LMAO!!!! Priceless. RIP George, you are Sorely Missed these crazy days!!!!

Yes, I'm sorry! I forgot to mention I was already in a server. I was playing in one of the insurgency servers last night but didn't seem to see anyone in the TS3 lobby. I just wasn't sure if there was somewhere I could ask if anyone was interested in playing. If not, that's okay, I was just curious. Thank you for the response!

Very Nice! Just got done building my own last week. Good luck to you and your new PC bud! It's a great feeling.

hummmmmmmmm.......................muff sounds good

It don't look anything at all like Minecraft, you were watching youtube videos, why don't you try it instead of pulling it to bits, it's easy to be critical of something before you try it, i have played both and i know which one i prefer and it's not the pretty game that plays like shite, some people actually like to play serious games now and again and no it don't play anything like Cod 4 either, just proves you have not read any posts, it's not like playing BF1 a game that was really created for kids with Xboxes where it only takes about 500 bullets to wound an enemy, just so the kids can get excited by spraying bullets everywhere, didn't take us long to drop that marvelous game did it?

Welcome to the forums, enjoy!

I will third or fourth people above, I would like it if we can just see who is online now instead of who is or was online in the last 24 hours. Seeing your friends that are online now would also be nice but win some lose some. Thanks for the hard work, I know it's a bitch especially when you have an actual job and this is what you do in your "spare" time.

Lets hope they don't screw this up too

whats that for a bs comment ? do u actually have server and making maps ?

A tip of the hat to Sitting-Duc for his constant dedication to XI and outstanding work on the web site rebuild.

This one rocks with Halford.

If I clicked on a forum thread, such as What Are You Listening To Today?, it won't take me to the last unread post. It just goes to the beginning of the thread. That was a very useful feature on long threads, plus there was a button inside each thread that would take you to the last unread post if just clicking on the thread didn't do it. Can we have these features again, please?
