You're on tenuous ground there, iirc.

I can't remember if the admins here like HOTU being posted or not.

Why is it I can never get a straight answer :P Are 3DAP likely to mind people linking to it from any of their host sites? That's the whole reasoning behind our stance on piracy of software. Personally speaking I don't mind at all.

We don't give you a straight answer because doing so is somewhat detrimental to our own interests.

And We'll take that as a green light.

You have a forum of your own to tout your illegal software on, there's no need to use ours. I thought it was made clear before that a certain standard has to be kept up so as not to piss off our own hosts?

You realise the irony, I hope.

And what fun would it be doing it from NW?

It'd be like target practice with laser-guided bullets. No risk, no skill, no fun.

*looks at weak, pathetic Athlon 1800+*

SHUT UP YOU!;)
So as through a glass, and darkly
The age long strife I see
Where I fought in many guises,
Many names, but always me.

There are only 10 types of people in the world , those that understand binary and those that don't.

An Athlon 1800 isn't pathetic. I still use an Athlon 1gHz. These days your CPU isn't limiting you, its the video card.

He ain't.  Biggest demand in games tends to be the graphics nowadays - and that's primarily dependent on the card.

Seconded. My P4 1.4 1.0 GB DDR RAM would run X^2 fine if my video card wasnt a piece of ****.
