Something weird

[choplocker-17]

Sometimes when I'm playing and I sign myself out, but then I try to come back on like 3 minutes later, it says connection refused, so I go on with the thrasher and I see choplocker17 out there, then it signs off so it confuses me

[lostandconfused]

That's happened to me, as well.

[choplocker-17]

why does that happen?

[Scroll Lock]

windows socket api doesnt close sometimes cause of the apim taking so long to get to the actual host

in other words, it thinks your still on that username, so it doesn't let you log in again

[choplocker-17]

oic, but when I ask who is on choplocker17, everytime it goes off

[Scroll Lock]

without viewing the code, i would have to say it most likely is a ping timeout

[choplocker-17]

Whats a ping time out

[Scroll Lock]

your computer and the server send messages to each other, if a message is sent without a responce for like a minute, itll kick the person off

[nads]

And it's Scroll Lock with the technical computer guru knowledge for the score! And the crowd goes wild!!!!!!!!!!!











So, ummm anyways, scroll lock, I need a new antivirus program, should I stay with Norton or maybe go McAfee or something else?

[Scroll Lock]

i just dont download viruses :-\

norton would be ur best bet

[INUYASHA]

it only happens when you dont click exit to leave. if you just close the window it doesn't register you've left and then you stay until your d/c

[Scroll Lock]

not true, although could make the problem happen more often, thats not when it only happens

for translations of Scroll's techno guru talk, contact the megabyte "stfu noob" foundation (me).

We translate into noobish, dumbass, l33t sp3@k, aim shorthand, and we've recently added trout talk to the list.

lol, im sorry if i confuse u guys, computers and skateboarding is almost all i know, ill try to be more blatant for now on

[choplocker-17]

i just dont download viruses :-\

norton would be ur best bet

I dont like norton, I tried that and ahh just didnt work, so I have mcafee

[nads]

Norton stops the virii for the most part, but the damn malwares... Spybots and browser hijakers get through norton like a dragon through a cleric. That stuff is harder for me to get rid of then a virus is anyday.

[choplocker-17]

Yeah i know, mcafee alerts you everytime a virus is scanned so that is very nice

[Scroll Lock]

norton has more updated definition lists then any other virus scanner, and although it may not look the best, it is the best for your system

i have mcafee installled, it sucks, it doesnt pick up any spyware, i usually just reformat when i get spyware

[nads]

Damn Scroll Lock is like 24 hour computer support or something. I just posted that 15 minutes ago or so. As for spy/mal wares though. I found ad aware works beautifully at cleaning most of that crap up. Download it free, just google it.

[Scroll Lock]

what software is that, cause i actually just reformatted this morning again cause of spyware

[choplocker-17]

Can you make cool websites scroll

[Scroll Lock]

i do

[choplocker-17]

Can you make one like http://www.netjak-tao.com
http://www.the-tao-dawgs.tk
http://www.deadlyalliance.qn.com

can u make websites like that?

[Scroll Lock]

definitly not, i make good websites, not uhh, eyesores? those were examples of eyesores, right?

[choplocker-17]

Could you make me a good website for my clan the white riders on armageddon? I got a forum made at www.thewhiteriderstao.tk

[Scroll Lock]

no, to make a truely good commercial layout takes time, and thats why i'm paid to do it

[choplocker-17]

wow u make comercials

[Scroll Lock]

commercial layouts

it has nothing to do with tv, it means a layout for a website used by a corperation for their buisness

[choplocker-17]

oic could i see some websites u made

[Scroll Lock]

*just cracks up reading all these posts*

I'm sry chop...I know ur just curious. I just found this thread more and more amusing as I read through your replies.


Nice work scoll :) I know how it is to do that sort of work for good money (though I lack the patience for it).

good props to yah.
and definitely agree with nads, I've been using ad aware for years, and its been keeping my precious safe from the spyware

(though microsoft's SP2 seemed to make up for that by killing my old comp)

[nads]

Just google for ad-aware I'm on dial up or I'd find it for you.

[choplocker-17]

thats sweet scroll lock ur website and megabyte what do u mean by amusing

[Scroll Lock]

thanx guys :)

[choplocker-17]

Your welcome, maybe I should change this thread into the Random Bug Thread :)

[Scroll Lock]

lol, weve even drifted out of the bug section, spyware and layouts :-p

[choplocker-17]

spyware has to do with bugs, its trying to eleminate bugs :) but layouts is kinda off the topic lol

[cs_zero]

If it tries to get rid of them, then it must have SOMEHING to do with them. ;)

[choplocker-17]

lol cs zero

Its only a little bit of lag, nothing to bad to worry about, its normally just the internet connection messing with ya, I have it a bit.

[nads]

Krome, we're like way past that...

I noticed on the list of new posts you were the last person top post on 15 or so threads. Instead of going for quantity, how about only posting if you have something to contribute to the conversation. We already have plenty of post whores, but they do it much better than you.

[choplocker-17]

Now now lets not be mean to each other, and krome thanks for the information
