Whoever the hell he is?

For all those players having trouble dealing with truce breakers at UTW , please message Sage on how to use TWX proxy and the SO (SysOp scripts) I posted on grimy's for truce preperation and maybe even the sentry script .

Just to mention a couple of the SysOp scripts I've posted for him there.
He refuses or doesn't know how to use them .. but with enough players requesting them , maybe something can be done to make a truce game a real truce game.

There are other servers out there that do/will run truce edits.
I'de like to see real truce games where its almost impossible to break a truce.

But its up to a sysop to do the setups or run a script that will do the work for them.

Please message your requests to Sage.

He is my neighbor and uses my wireless so I am now one of the few players to have an IP ban because of someone else (as it should be since it came from my IP). If you are wondering, yes, he is catching flack from me on getting the IP ban. I also see that the twarp photon script I gave him needs some work - he evidently missed too much.

PLEASE remove PRO from ban list... I have had more fun with his scripts than all but Sing's...
Sage Let Pro Back on!

Yeah let pro back in............

Thx, but my IP is my responsibility and when I let others use it I can catch the fallout. For action such as this I expect Sage to ban the IP regardless. Sage doesn't know me and I could have been playing as Lucifer (I wasn't), but he has no way of knowing. The IP ban is a good thing.

"A man who has no skills can be taught, a man who has no honor has nothing."

For what its worth, Lucifer got SD'd twice tonight and left in a pod the third time on my private server (T-Edit works wonders in resurrecting the dead). Since we were both accessing it from my wireless things were kind of quick, but fair.

"A man who has no skills can be taught, a man who has no honor has nothing."

For anyone who's having trouble buying a Ship at Dock at UTW, please ICQ SAGE and ask him to send you an Email letting you know that there's a Script on grimy's called: Dock Shopper. Then. Ask Sage to ICQ you the URL to said website hosting said script. Then Email Sage asking him to email you later with a ICQ followup, reminding you to check your ICQ msg's so that you can then Post here on EIS thanking him for.. Darn what the hell was I talking about


Here Comes the REALLY Superfluous Instruction: It's up to *you* to Double-Click the ICQ icon on your Desktop to initate a ICQ Message.


Please act now. My Ego is deflating faster than anticipated.

It is nice to have such tools for these types of games but with it should come some sense of honor. If you lack self control then please stay out of games that have any type of truce it will just cause a long worn out forum post......uhh like this one!!

The "BIGGER PROBLEM" we have a few "TOOLS" that play TW

Something Lonestar forgot in his helpful post.

With all the comments and whining about truces, you can't rely on honor to govern the game. Society needs structure, bounds and limits. Look at the government, companies, even websites. They have boundaries so you cant exploit them or take advantage or misuse them.

I think as long as there is a way to misuse the loopholes in a truce, people will.

I think Vid Kid's post isn't really superfluous, because it lets people know that something can be done and the players who cry about breaking the truce should get Sage to set up the boundaries.

But really............ its just a game.... laff

The truce breaking issues have been here since tradewars began. The server side scripts help slightly. But i personally like to grid during the truce. I like to invade alien plants during the truce etc...
It's been said before, and i totally agree, the best way to stop truce breakers is patch the twgs. It wont be that hard. I can't see why this ip such a big deal. I use a program called cool edit. Cost me 11usd i think, was a few years ago . I sent the owner an email with 7 issues i had and 2 new ideas. Within 14 days there was a new update that fixed 6 of the issues and both my new ideas were taken onboard. Plus a few new fixes that i'd never noticed. Thats the way software needs to be.

Yah, well, I usually only load ICQ once every couple of days and when I do, there's usually 3 to 6 messages from Sage. Normally I'm in a hurry, so that little x in a box in the top right corners comes in pretty handy.

Anyone who reads this must send a Copy to three (3), friends right away!!
