  1. New Site with social features.

    in Site Upgrades

    Posted

    I'm really think about building a new VG site from that platform. It has several other plugins that would make it just go over the top cool. All we'd need is a custom theme and I think we'd have a nice new site. I need you guys to give me some input or else I'm just going for it. Please use the features and fuck around with it I want to be sure everyone is on board. We can get this done for about $1000 total. Cheapest solution so far. Let me know what you think. I kind of like it. Below is a link to ALL the other plugins we'd also have:

    Hey guys, I need some beta testers. I've created a new site and I'm thinking of using it as the platform for the new VG site as well. If you'd like to join and help me test, please visit www.preppersmeetup.com please just join the site, set up a profile, start posting stuff, sample the features and let me know what you think about it.

    Do you think this would be a good platform to start a new site from?

    Please use it and then post your comments here!! Thanks!

  5. POW/MIA Day - Until they all come home...

    in Militaria

    Posted



    Today, Sept. 21, 2012, is the the annual POW/MIA Day which honors and remembers those held as prisoners of war and those who didn't come home .

    It's a hugely important day (is hugely really a word?) It's one of six days that Congress has authorized flying the POW-MIA flag, and it's a day when all of us, both veteran and civilian, should pause to remember.

    Over the past few years, we have seen dozens of homecomings where happy families have welcomed their loved one back into the fold. We have seen tragic funerals where towns such as Pekin, Peoria, Creve Coeur, Princveile, Delevan and others have lined the streets to honor and remember those who have given their lives in defense of this great land.

    But POW-MIA remembers those who didn't come home, ever. There are thousands of people still missing from our many wars. Fortunately, science has progressed to where that number is shrinking as DNA tests and forensics allow for better testing of remains.

    Ceremonies acros the nation are being held today as well as overseas at our varoius bases, FOBs and COPs. So what is POW-MIA Day and how did it get started?

    Here's something from the Military Times's Web site which wrote a little sidebar to a story that has some background on the holiday. The paper also has a very touching story on their Web site which is linked to above.

    The National POW/MIA Recognition Day, established by Congress in 1979, takes place annually in the United States on the third Friday in September. The day of observance honors prisoners of war and members of the military missing in action.

    Defense Department statistics list a total of 83,417 GIs missing in action: 73,681 from World War II, 7,947 from the Korean War, 126 from Cold War actions, 1,657 from the Vietnam War and six from the war with Iraq and related conflicts.

    The National POW/MIA Recognition Day is not a federal public holiday, but it is one of six days when the POW/MIA flag can be flown at military bases and federal buildings. (Newt Heisley, a World War II veteran and commercial artist, designed the flag for a New Jersey firm. The black-and-white banner shows the phrase, ?you are not forgotten,? as well as the head-bowed profile of his son, Jeffrey, a former Marine.)

    The other five days the POW/MIA flag can be flown at armed forces bases and government buildings are: Armed Forces Day, Memorial Day, Flag Day, Independence Day and Veterans Day.

    So take some time and remember. There's nothing worse, I would imagine, than not knowing what happened to a loved one who went off to war and didn't come home. And also remember those who suffered at the hands of the enemy as POWs .From the Illinois National Guard:

    The original focus of the project was Company B, 192nd Tank Battalion, Illinois Army National Guard whose Soldiers, along with those of the rest of the battalion, would successfully repel the Japanese invasion of the Philippine?s Bataan Peninsula for four months while critically short on food, bullets and other supplies. Without supplies or hope of reinforcements, the troops were ordered to surrender. Now prisoners of war, the Soldiers were made to walk the 80 miles to Camp O?Donnell suffering from dehydration, exhaustion, disease and brutal treatment at the hands of their Japanese guards.

    *** IN GAME COMMS | Setup for MP ***

    WARNING: IF YOU DO NOT ENTER THE BANDWIDTH SPECIFIED BY THE HOST YOU WILL CAUSE THE FLIGHT TO BE CORRUPT AND WASTE EVERYONES TIME.

    If you are connecting to another person who is hosting then you are the client.

    In the MP Comms box, name the Server Name, if we are Hosting, name it VETERANS-GAMING so you know who's entry/IP address it is.

    You enter the Host's IP address in the Connect to IP Address Box

    Everyone MUST enter a Connection Bandwidth, specified by the Host.

    Finally CHECK the two IVC boxes (SET TO ON!)

    MP FIX: Copy and paste,the following two variable(lines) to your Falcon BMS Config file located in your USER\Config folder and save the file. It can be opened with Wordpad or Notepad. These variables prevent BMS from creating Packet logs in your User\Logs folder that are genertated when MP'ing and can become extremely huge in disk space. They are not essential to the end-user.

    Stryker we need these reports to keep everyone honest and the game play fair, but like Savage said, we need actionable information, preferably via PM. We don't want to offend people over misunderstandings, or vague postings like this. Thanks.

    From Branzone regarding the purge we experienced yesterday:


    Hi Scott,
    BF2 still have exploits that allow servers to get flooded or crashed. I checked the logs and it looks like a player was kicked and 10 seconds later everyone else disconnected:

    Perhaps that user triggered the disconnects. We have other busy BF2 servers that get crashed several times a day because they are ranked high on server tracking websites. There's no preventative measure that we can take to prevent these types of exploits from happening. I wouldn't say that every instance is caused by this but this one looks like that's probably what happened.

    The server is dead because we don't play there. We wer e what brought people there. It was out style of play and fairness that made us popular, but when we got bored with it, we lost our base of regular players to the other servers. Moving to this new host didn't help and having none of us ever there is why it's flat. I'll make a point to play more often. I plan to be on more and gaming when I can. Once we're back playing again you'll quickly remember why you loved it. WE need to get the server back to how it was prior to the move or let it go and take our patronage to another server. If we can make our server better then let's get it done.

    Fasjack, as for all the stuff you mentioned. I was confused by most of it. Is there something we can do to fix it?
