That was cool Dark. I hope you get more opportunities to go there.

Thanks guys.

I know that my father-in-law said if he knew it would hurt so much, he probably wouldn't have had it done. I am sure he feels differently now that it is over with though. Living with that pain is awful.

Happy Birthday Buddy!!!! Have a great one!!!

Here's one for ya. One of the mechanics on my crew at work is at Daytona this weekend, his name is Larry. You would have to know this guy, but if there ever were a real life 'born loser', it's this poor bastard. I could give you the laundry list of all the bad stuff that has happened to this guy, but suffice to say that Larry is certifiably unlucky. Well, I was on my way to work Saturday night, and I heard what had happened at Daytona.. I knew I needed to call and check on him. If 150,000 people were there, and one was hit by car parts flying off the track, this poor bastard was probably the one. I texted him, and he called me back in about a half-hour. The first thing he said was ' Don't let anyone tell you that smoking and drinking isn't good for you, cause it is '. I said that he needed to explain. Apparently, when the race was red-flagged, he and his buddies discovered they were out of beer and needed more. They left their seats and stepped inside the stands and got some beers, and then stepped out in an area where they could watch the end of the race and burn one. On the final turn, they saw the car disintegrate and fly into the stands IN THE SPOT WHERE THEY HAD BEEN SITTING before they left to get beers and burn a smoke. He said the car parts were spread over about a 30 foot section right where they had been sitting, and several people that they had stood right next to were injured by flying debris. Drinking and smoking are good for you, and maybe Larry's bad luck streak has just taken a turn for the better.

A lot of work went into that one. Good Job and very nice rig!!!

Happy Birthday to you, my friend!!!

Keep us updated. He will be in our prayers.

Welcome to the clan English-Bob!!!

The BF3 team is already doing a fantastic job Tyrone. You don't see the multiple bans EVERY DAY that I see, because it's posted in the admin section. I've seen dozens on some days. Believe me, these guys are doing their job. What you suggest doesn't make sense. What good will it do you to ban a 'suspect', and then speak to them in teamspeak to "get to know them" and perhaps lift the ban? You think a hacker will admit it? You think someone who is innocent will do anything but say "I'm not hacking, please unban me"? Any regular player or XI member is more than welcome to PM or message the BF3 admin team about someone they suspect is doing something in-game that they shouldn't, but there is NO WAY that we as an admin team will start banning players based on another player or member's recommendation without going through all the same due-diligence that we already go through to ban a player. Psycokiller, if you really mean what you wrote then I don't understand why you are still playing in our servers and wearing the XI tags. What 'game' have you been in for 15 years? You must mean FPS's in general, because NONE of the games we host have even been out for 15 years. COD2 is only 8 years old, COD4 a little over 4, and BF3 a year and 4 months. I invite you to go play somewhere else. Spend some time in other clan servers, and maybe you will begin to appreciate the hard work that the >XI< admin team actually does. The admin team here at XI, in every game type, does one hell of a job to keep our servers clean and fun. It's a thankless job much of the time, particularly when know-it-all's such as yourself enjoy countless hours of fun gameplay in our servers, then come on the website and bitch that everyone in the entire universe but you is a hacker and all of YOUR clan's admins are not doing their job. Well, I'm one of those admin brother, and you can kiss my ass.

Spawn camping, in ACE mod, is not allowed. However, there are definitely times where spawners get killed immediately. This isn't always a spawn camper.. it may be a guy that came around the corner.. sees another player.. and starts shooting, without having any idea that the person just spawned. BUT, there are people who hang around spawn areas and camp. These are the ones that need to be calibrated, and removed if necessary. I have said many many times before.. I don't really see the 'difference' everyone talks about with the ace server. I played it when we started it, and I play it now, and my gameplay feels about the same and my scores are about the same.. but most important.. my fun level is pretty good. I still enjoy the hell out of it. I don't discount others when they say it's different though, I just don't see it myself.

No disrespect to anyone.. new ideas are always encouraged.. so continue to bring things up... BUT... ACE is the oldest and all-time most popular mod we have run at XI. It has been here since like 2 seconds after the game came out in 2008 We have tried many many different things, particularly with anti-spawn camp and spawn protection. It is set up now at the most ideal way we can, giving equal consideration to both the person spawning and any opponent who is near the person spawning. When we tried the invisible spawn, then the spawners had the advantage because of ACE's speed.. you could be on top of someone and shooting before they even knew you were there. Keep the ideas coming though, someone may actually think of something we haven't done yet.

FYI: If you see that one of your posts was removed from this thread.... There is a forum to discuss banned players, it's called appeals. Lets keep THAT discussion in that forum. Carry on!!

So sorry for your loss VonDrake. Welcome back!! Hope to see you around

Welcome DaddyO' , it was fun playing in snipers with ya tonight. We are almost neighbors.. I'm down in Aiken. Have fun!! See ya in the servers.

People got in, so did I, but after a few seconds it would kick you out with a message about a file. I should have gotten a screenshot, but I didn't. I'm heading out, so I haven't taken it out of rotation yet.

sps_hha_f has issues, gives errors and kicks you out.

Happy Birthday Piggy!!!!

Happy Birthday you loon See ya soon!!!

Chief.. look at the dates before you post. This is nearly 2 years old.

What browser are you two using? If you have another on your computer, you should try a different browser and see what happens.

I've looked over Zaubermaus76's profile, and I can find no reason for her not being able to reply to topics. Zaubermaus76, does the 'post' and 'more reply options' buttons appear below posts, or are they there but greyed out? Try changing website theme (bottom left of screen) and see if the 'post' buttons appear again.
