Too bad you put graphics in such high regards, give me a good story and gameplay and music over good graphics any day.

I paid 7 pounds, more of a symbolic cost imo, Wizard got the collector's edition whatever. Speaking in eMule's defense, it's all how you use it really. eDonkey, the official client was the one that was evil crap crap. And if you want a Limewire alternative, Frostwire does the job better, and with a lot less bloat to boot.

Right, because you're smart and we're all a bunch of retards... Grow up... No one said they wouldn't download your stuff if you uploaded it... As I said before, READING COMPREHENSION. It is acquired by, guess what, reading... We don't agree with you, is that so hard to understand? And many more people are going to realize sooner or later how fed up they are with you and everyone like you and their arrogant attitude because they could stitch some sprites together...

Homophobe much ? And that's an interesting theory, that your gf is your personal servant as well. Grow up, kiddo. If you'd actually know the difference between a manbag and a purse you'd not make inane comments like that. The thing is, I enjoy wide long jeans with lots of pockets but it gets frustrating to search all of them for 1 thing I forgot where I put. And sometimes I may not be wearing those jeans anyway. @EM: I'm more metro than Fatal is hehe I sometimes have eyeliner or black nail polish on me as well. It's great that you made your own, you must have mad sewing skills, unfortunately I suck T_T at that so I will have to buy one. Thanks for the link Gryph, but those messenger bags are just too fat. I'm looking for ones that are tall, not wide.

And there goes your last argument, collapsing upon itself like it actually had any relevance to the topic. I enjoy using "epic fail" it suits the situation and your views, which were explained quite nicely and accurately by Cinder. Today is a victory for the MUGEN community. Rejoice. Alright, hold your horses. We're still in the process of thinking this out and making sure if we want to allow "warehousing" or not. Take your time, last thing we want is a hasty decision. Just because some site decided to allow them doesn't mean we should follow suit based on that. However, my view still stands, MFG's decision is what's best for the entire MUGEN community. And while the poll isn't nearly that accurate a barometer, the votes clearly show that the users of this site think so too. Of course, on the flip side, if most users would also prefer we resume linking to roms and warez, that doesn't mean it would be right for the 1emu community as a whole. This is not the case however, for this particular niche of our community.

Firstly, I think Gryph is confusing eMule over eDonkey. eDonkey was utter crap. eMule is great, and you can find lots of rare stuff over ed2k. Just grab it and a list of servers from eMule's site and it's still great, speeds are decent. ed2k still has its say on the P2P scene.

I use Complex Evolution really. I don't think it's specifically for Audio CDs but due to it's extremely lightweight (it's 4 megs ) and awesome features and fastness and absolutely no fail rate so far, I'd say give it a whirl. http://www.complexnt.com/burning_engine_features_list.htm http://www.complexnt.com/downloads.htm PM me if you're interested in a crack

Here's hoping the next unified format will be holographic and bigger and cheaper and all that thingie edit: anyone actually bothered to watch the vid? it's tre funny

They lack finesse, therefore not to my taste. I hate muscle-heads.

I hope piracy will prevent that kind of service from ever being profitable. The media companies already whore enough money out of us as it is, and the last thing we need is more 1-time view, no guarantee if the download fvcks up midway, DRM-infested, ad-infested media. Rather, money should be spent in creating new codecs and compression methods to make movies smaller with no quality loss and creating another container for music that's both the size of a small mp3 and lossless.

Movies are a moot point for me. I don't really watch that many. You're making a bad assumption anyway Cinder because Blu-ray won't go anywhere since it will be the dominant storage media until holographic disks are made anyway. 50 GB on a dual layer disk, yes please. And did I mention that the PS3 uses Blu-Ray disks for their games? HD DVD is already obsolete hardware though, Toshiba have made a last desperate attempt to cut their losses by slicing their players' prices by 50% anyway. Too bad I forgot to tell my father that he's got a piece of obsolete hardware because he had no idea about the format war in the first place...

LMFAO! Logic Error! Capcom vs Snk 1 and 2 Neo Geo Battle Colliseum Marvel vs capcom 2 Melty Blood series Guilty Gear Series DragonBall Z Boudokai Samurai Shodown Tenkachi Oh man I can go on. I never knew there were roms for those games? HA! I despise people that think they know everything and dont know a damn thing from the beginning and yes there are characters made from those sprites. Seriously, Warehousing is wrong and there will always be creators like myself opposing it. We have reasons and we have the right to protect our materials whether you like it or not. Simple as that. Instead of leeching, try to contribute sometimes. *cough* pirated copies *cough* your reply wasn't even argument-worthy... especially after knowing full-well inky does not dabble AT ALL in MUGEN. epic fail. If you would've taken the time to read Valodim's link, you would've seen that they now allow warehousing. Guess it's time to change the rules, buddy boy.

It's why theres throwing and special normals yeah but maybe I prefer not to use throws, and would like to do something other than slapping with my backhand...

Azureus crashed my computer and forced me to reinstall my OS 2 years ago. It's also very heavyweight, bloated and eats up alot of memory. uTorrent is lightweight, barely even touches my memory consumption and does the job quickly and stylishly. also it's the one client accepted by everyone at the moment.

and I love the side kick!! yeah but in the end there's only so many tactics you can devise with such a limited moveset. not to mention the boredom that installs itself after a while... a fight has to be beautiful and artistic. if fighting like in SF would happen in real life, you'd think Ryu would simply stick to his 4 moves? nope, because as you train, you evolve your capabilities, refine your style. he'd be able to throw aerial hadoukens from his feet and do downward shoryukens after a while. seeing him whoring the same 3 moves over and over and over again makes you feel like he's just a carbon copy, albeit better looking of his older game counter parts. just an example, mind you, there's other characters with similar conditions "guile T_T has 2..., even Charlie had 3..."

Funny, I didn't actually post. I had it on quick reply but didn't press the post button. It takes me a long time to answer anyway because I get easily distracted. This post will get edited with a full response once I collect my ideas into one. edit: I know you're not trying to make it sound personal, and I enjoy the intelligent discourse and aggressive defense that you put up. I said "creating" is an overstatement. Let me clarify. This pertains, in my view, only to characters, stages etc. that would count as derivate work, i.e. "Orochi Terry", not completely original characters such as Dragon Claw. Since you're basically just gluing some sprites together, how is that "creating"? Creating is when you drawn your own sprites, records your own sounds and generally do something from scratch. Dragon Claw was created, Reu's other characters, Evil Ryu and Evil Ken were sewn together. It's just that simple. Yes I do that they are worth protecting regardless, but at the cost of the author's right to distribution. Nothing is wrong with GameFAQS per se, I just used it to exemplify the bandwagon I was referring to. Simply put, people copy the idea of "legal stuff" from reading other FAQs. If the first FAQ creators hadn't put this in their FAQs, then I seriously believe that no one would've started doing so on their own. They're just following a trend, it's "cool" to have copyright. You realize this by reading various "legal sections" in each FAQs... And this can be applied to MUGEN developers.

How the hell did you reply so fast? edit: let me answer. you extrapolate too much. let me also correct the first quoted statement. thanks for pointing it out. correction: "and you know why I will do that? Because I actually thought this whole "I don't want my characters on any other website other than my own" through and analyzed it, and I see it as nothing more than a selfish, childish, arrogant tantrum." that should clear things up. "Nobody except self-righteous pigheads claim to make 'art'. Your inference is that if its not art, its not valuable enough to be bound by its authors wishes, correct? That's the selfish, illogical point you're making." don't twist my words around. that's not very nice. Where did I say that they claim to make art? Those 2 comments were stand-alone and you linked them to create a counter-argument. No true artist claims they just made a work of art. You're right, MUGEN developers shouldn't care about any of that, but if they don't, then they shouldn't also care when someone steals their work, reverse-engineers it, and creates derivate works from it, much less when it gets more widespread. Because they didn't bother to copyright it, hence they didn't bother to empower themselves with rights over their own creation.

uTorrent doesn't spy on you anymore. it was just "Advertisements In early versions, Strigeus had built in a web redirection via http://nanotorrent.com/ for search queries entered through the search bar that displayed advertisements in a frame on the web browser. Some users thought this suspicious because tracking could be implemented by recording the IP addresses of those downloading/receiving the advertisements, and the search functionality could easily be used to track user queries through whichever web-interface the client is going through to execute the search. After a short trial period, the advertising was disabled, mitigating possible concerns. Here is a quotation from the official forum administrator "Firon": “ There's no data collected, it's just used to display ads for certain keywords ... It was used as a domain instead of being integrated into the client so the ad thing could be turned off later easily if the response to it was negative. Also, it may be used in the future to provide a "search all sites" feature. A later version of the software has, instead of ads, a "search all sites" feature, which is a keyword-based search bar that delivers listings of torrent files at different trackers. A frame at the top displays advertisements (server-side) in the browser when the search function is used. In version 1.5, no ads are present in the program itself. As of build 463, a redirect bypass feature became available in the Advanced options." quoted from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UTorrent

I agree with inky's idea though. Most creators aren't artists necessarily though. But people usually just jump on the bandwagon like every person who's posted faq-text on gamefaqs. Morally speaking, since you created it, it's yours. But if you haven't registered it with a copyright office, then I believe you don't care enough about your work. From a legal standpoint, if it's not an original character, it's not yours anyway. All that belongs to you is the bit of coding that went into it. I myself plan to start creating MUGEN characters sometime this year. "Creating" is an overstatement since they'll be SNK sprite rips mostly, due ot SNK's sheer awesomeness. At that time, should I create a site and host them there, I will have no problem whatsoever to them being on warehouses. Because, as a creator, I create for the people. I use it as a medium to share my experience. And you know why I will do that? Because I actually thought this through and analyzed it, and I see it as nothing more than a selfish, childish, arrogant tantrum. I would know, I'm one of the most arrogant persons I know. And if they care enough about my work, they'll update their characters when they feel like it. @Syn "Not a valid excuse." Actually if you read what I said thoroughly, without flipping out and instantly replying with that inane line, you'd see it's validity "Umm correction, I create stuff, you leech stuff. HUGE difference." Get over yourself. Reading comprehension must be rare these days... To make it clearer for you, "I have stuff to do" refers to OTHER, non-MUGEN related stuff. "Um, I clearly read this post and from your view behind it, you can care less and disrespect an authors wishes." Care less? Hah... we should really grab a beer sometime, you'll be in shock after I'm done with you. Yes, so I go against their view and find their characters on warehousing sites. That's because I consider it inane. And you want to know what I do afterwards? I find that creator's web site, bookmark it and check it one or twice a week for updates. I never once will refuse to give him credit for his work, or to provide FEEDBACK. Maybe you've had some bad experiences about kiddies crying when your AI beat their Super Mega Shin Saiya-jin Akuma or something and you decided to generalize that we all whine and biatch about how crappy your work is. To quote you "logic error!" or as I like to put it "epic fail". that or your work really does suck and the kiddies found it better to moan than to provide input on why it sucks. I wouldn't know, I've never seen your work. Now, on to explaining why I think this entire thing is just an arrogant tantrum. Because of pride. They put together something, regardless of how stolen it is, and all of a sudden "you're the man". Only "the man" decides when he may step down from his golden throne and present us with his gifts of great coding and sprite stitching (Orochi Kyo or some other crap like that...). Well guess, what, it all boils down to, if they're going to be asses about it, then I have nothing more I want to say to them.

There's already another GH3 thread in the computer speak forum, where this thread should belong as well. But great info tho, now I know my laptop can run it.

It is obvious none of us are that good in virus creation. What is your relationship to this fellow? Can you ask him out for a drink and get him drunk? The only real solution is for you to access his hard drive. A full BIOS format from the bootable Windows XP CD will ensure his files are well dead. Can you take this matter to the police? The only way I see this working is by you somehow, through trickery, gain access to his computer.

glad to be of service. after I get more spare time, I'll definitely start work on my own characters and character rips following that video, so maybe we could trade experiences
