A real customer support email

A real customer support email:

"...For the future information of your company I did cut and paste the password into dreamweaver. I

have no idea how but Dreamweaver (or Windows or possibly Word) must have interpreted the lower case

l as a number one. I think that I may have copied the details from hotmail into a Word document for

storage and then pasted them into Dreamweaver. Perhaps this is where the problem arose. In any event

a lower case L or indeed a one would be best avoided by your company in passwords or user idents.

This is a one, 1, this is a lower case letter L, l, as you can see they are virtually identical in

this font.

I would suggest that your company does not use this letter in its lower case form in passwords to

avoid this problem in the future..."

Playing on old tribes 2 servers with the new patch

Playing on old tribes 2 servers with the new patch

1. (NEWLY ADDED) Make sure that you FIRST startup T2 before doing

anything else and clicking "Launch", then "Settings", then click the "Game"

button and make SURE that the "Skip Intro" is enabled. You cannot have the

intro play on startup, because it was updated in the patch. If the intro

isnt disabled, you will get a black screen.(thx Rodent)

2. Download the old Tribes2.exe here: Old Tribes Exe

3. Place it in your Tribes2/Gamedata folder. (this is vital it must be

in the Gamedata folder or nothing will happen when you start it)

4. Right-click the "Tribesold.exe" you downloaded and placed in your

gamedata folder and "Create Shortcut" or you can Create a Shortcut through

the "Send to" menu and have it placed on your desktop. Either way its

required to use a shortcut to run T2.

5. Then right-click the shortcut you made and click "Properties". Then

add the command " -online" without the quotations on the end after the

target line. it should look something like this:

C:\Dynamix\Tribes2\GameData\Tribesold.exe -online

Make sure there is a space between Tribesold.exe and -online. You can

additionally add you login too, like this:

C:\Dynamix\Tribes2\GameData\Tribesold.exe -online -login NAME PASSWORD

Lay off Sven

England's biggest humiliation for 52 years - bollocks! Us losing to the US under Graham Taylor or some of the performances under Keegan spring to mind... 4 points from 2 games isn't a tragedy.

On Howard Wilkinson

On Howard Wilkinson

"Sunderland's new manager should be Mick McCarthy. Better for Sunderland and Ireland.

Then we could have Keano back playing with Ireland and we'd win Euro 2004 (ah haaa haaaaaa haaa - stop it my sides will split)

Instead we'll probably not even qualify."
