What are you talking about exactly? Look at your posts Hensua, not a single word concerning NWN. And you pretend that I am a troll? And what are you offering to us here but topic derail? You are the nuisance here. You say : don't you see they bring nothing but noise, I think that you have to go and read all over again my interventions wich are very clear , and If you don't see then read once more, and then again if you pretend that you don't see then you are the troll here and should indeed be removed asap. If you read carefully with your little brain you'll get that, beside a clear analysis wich is the begining of a good cure, I'm not the one to offer something here, I am the one who ask for help, and that help is certainly not comming from your hands nor from others that provided workarounds that are weak and ugly in all terms and will never replace the msa. You can't even make sense it's incredible. And what's your point in the end of this? Don't you see that a the maximum of my intervention the results if any will all be for your own good? There is nothing I said that goes against your interest here, unless you're not worried about nwn in wich case you shouldn't be here, because i've never seen u talk about this game at all.

I'm sure you don't even get that the weak workaround that is stickied by a bioware staff, wich is nothing but a pretention of a fix, slow down the coming back of the MSA.

ps :When you guys post a topic, post a nwn script, post anything, please tag all your work to save end-user's time as full of flaws, messy, unprofessional, weak, dangerous, security breach inside... do that even for random thoughts. thanks

-Bolding added-

You are intervening on behalf of whom? How does he/she know what is our own good?

               I have a server to run, I ask for help for my own interest and It doesn't go against yours.

               why do I find it hard to believe that ultima03 actually has a server that he/she runs?

Since ultima03 is telling us to tag our own work, I suggest he/she start with her/his own. What have you done for the community? What work have you shared? (that's public release to the vault)
What is your server web page if any, its forums and its requirements?

Until you post such, no one will take you for anything other than a troll.

Better to simply ignore the trolls. Isn't it obvious that they offer nothing but noise? Given no attention they'll either desist or try harder. If they try harder, it will be easy to get them banned from the forum.

Simple.

I do not want attention, not from you or anyone else here. I was expressing my issues and i will stand to what i said. The MSA has to be there, also it doesn't seem to work on NWN2 either, which is really really bad.

The noise is caused by the guys like you who randomly point the fingers at others saying "you are a troll" since they simply can't accept their opinions. To give you hint, only because you guys do not agree with our opinions doesn't make us nor you a "troll".
It is amusing to see how almost everyone here just throws the word "troll" arround in the room without even knowing what exactly a troll is.

Go read on wikipedia or whatever site you can think off about "trolls" on the awesome internet. Then come back here again and rethink your previous posts where the word "troll" is a part of it.

               The correct term would actually be Concern Troll.
Showing up months after the community has found multiple ways of fixing/working around a problem to rant and carry on about how the potential of losing your +3 imaginary pixel sword is so great that all NWN servers should be shut down immediately.
You seem to be making the argument that you are concerned about the MSA being down. However, you ignore the fact that security is usually better now than it used to be and imply (I forget which one of you) that all of NWN should be destroyed because we had to do it ourselves. The problem is fixed. If/when it comes back online, then we will have it. Until then, your +3 imaginary pixel sword is safe on any server that has any member with even a basic understanding of Aurora Script.

Concern Troll.

               BAD TROLLS!!! BAD!!! Do that OUTSIDE!

Seriously... I'm mad too... but quit playing NWN? Don't let the door hit you in the ass on the way out, guys.

Truth is I'm much more concerned about the loss of the old forums than MSA. And I'd like to get my old CD key back so I can play my premium mods. '>

               Pass the popcorn guys...I want some.

Seriously, though I'm with Urk on this one. WHAT IN THE NAME OF GYGAX WERE YOU TWO THINKING? Saying that people playing NWN should stop because the MSA is down...geesh, and expecting that people here - IN A NWN FORUM - wouldn't jump all over that!! **SMACK**
               
               

               
            

[Legacy_SHOVA]

               uh, Urk, with the master server down, you can play any premium mod, even if you did not buy it.
               
               

               
            

[Legacy_wyldhunt1]

               Have you tried to play the premium mods lately, Shova?
There've been reports that they stopped working a few days ago. Something changed on the server side.
               
               

               
            

[Legacy_SHOVA]

               just tried. Wyvern Crown of Cormyr, and Infinite Dungeons, both work just fine. it took a few seconds for the check to come back, like 20 or so, but they work.

               I demand pix of this legendary sword which is so awesome that it warrants the downfall of all other worlds. It's like the effin' Ring of Power, yo. I've got to see this thing. Pix or it doesn't exist.

Also, Ultima should tell us who his DM is on this terribly at-risk world so that we can notify them of Ultima's grave concerns, and I'm sure that in light of Ultima's cogent arguments, he or she would be willing to keep the sword somewhere safe, away from his account, such that it cannot get stolen by evil sword-coveting haxxors.

Furthermore, has anyone considered trying to *test* Ultima's server's security? How else will we ever know if he's right about this whole steal-his-sword thing? Just saying.

               I'm very very glad that none of you is in charge of anything. Now that's an emotion.

Nope. No change.
