Judging by your member list, you are a normal member. Anubis_451 would be the other one I would like speak with. regarding strabo or lak being this official.

Regardless, the war decision has been placed on hold until I can contact a representative from both clans to speak to me in an officious manner. So both clans should elect and select a person to speak to me about this.

The rematch would have the same cap. 20 for them/19 for instinct. In the event that Instinct cannot pull 19, and say only 15. It would be 15 vs 16.

After speaking with many concerned clan leaders and members of clans participating in the tournament, I feel the best course of action is A rematch, when hosted this rematch will be watched and observed by me on the time both clans agree on. I would suggest a rematch at Saturday at 3 PM eastern, makes it easy for the dutch based clan the Americans can sleep in. 6 days should be plenty of time to advertise between clan members to get them aware and ready a 7 man victory, is convincing, Surely the winner would feel confident that it could happen again. The declaration of instinct as a victor over Faith has been placed on hold pending administrative contact with both clans leaders.

Dates can be extended.

I think from my understanding the lagging showed in sworddudes video did indeed show it could of been lag playing a major factor. I think it would be a grand gesture for both clans to accept a rematch, so since this is a rather popular topic. What do both of you say about a rematch? I will come myself to officiate it and watch it like a hawk.

The debate was long and heated and at times and not an easy choice to make, however in the heat of battle people do stupid things, lag and melt, I have strangely seen it first hand. Personally myself this happened in a war with boundaries, and I remember in teamspeak someone yelled "We won by default" to which another member retorted " a pixel hugger should not define our victory, lets earn it" Ive watched the video more than one time If possible, I would love to personally speak to a leader from both clans, a rematch is not out of the question for the integrity of the tournament. Send me a pm and I will give you my messenger details and we will discuss this. I want this tournament to go over very well.

Just a notice, all of the fields "A link to your clan's banner. (please keep it under 810x250 or it will automatically be resized) A link to your clan's website/forums. A link to your clan's runehead/memberlist. List of your clan leaders. Your Clan Initials. Your Clan's Main Focus. (warring, skilling, etc.)" Are mandatory.

Just some facts: This thread has been cleaned before project off topic started, yet no complaints were made then. I understand some people may not like project off topic, but is needed to snipe on everythread? I dont think so. No one is going to get banned for expressing anger or resentment over an update they dont agree with, but I got to question those who seek relationship advice on a forum. ;) . The reason I say that is whenever I go to my ladyfriends they are always like "Daniel, girls vary, no one can generalize advice for interacting with women" and you know, dang, thats the third best bit of advice I have ever gotten. :lol: IF you have any legitimate constructive comments and feedback we would love to hear them out and talk to you about them.

Yep, Although I am a die hard firefox user, the fact I recommend it to customers generally comes with troubleshooting as IE has lots of errors that firefox doesnt and vice versa. I see that as nothing more than a common troubleshooting suggestion.

Oh no doubt parents think of the internet as a babysitter, infact some of them tell me they use it as one, think of it as the new "Tv" kind of scary actually. You can actually view these forums without an account and read the content which means anyone can view it, a major reason explicit content is bad, also honestly how many kids lie and say they are over 13 :P I would wager some of our users are 10 and younger, we just dont know it. Its a tricky line to draw without looking "Conservative" or "liberal", but one thing about this that sticks out is, many off topic users expressed complaints as well that were taken into consideration. I think many people think any topics dealing with anything sexual, drug affiliated or generally "bad" have been axed and thats not true. for two examples, a conversation on say safe sex thats educational or discussion worthy and not talking about sexual experience in an explict manner would be allowed. another quick exampl that comes to mind is say std's orgins or transmissions, highly offensive to some because *gasp* they mention sex, but done in a informative discussion way is allowed while someone graphically describing how they got one or what thiers may look like in a grotesque fashion isnt cool. I think it boils down to content, not explicitness, dont quote me on this, but as long as its educational, informative and intelligent, I am pretty sure it will never be locked, although I cannot guarantee that, but if it is, I am sure you could PM any admin and any of us would be happy to review it and go in depth with you on the topic. and if it gets locked, and the merit for the topic is there, we will unlock it.

With no doubt i understand your viewpoint, but racial,gender sexual and offensive humor can be funny to some and offensive to alot. I wont lie sometimes when I am on long rides and faction is playing awful songs I give stern a listen for amusement purposes, I have heard him say many worse things than don imus but the media and people often take different things in different context than some issues. For the life of me I dont get why some things are offensive and some things are not. But its not my place to judge anyone for what offends them as a human being. We are not trying to help people live sheltered lives but give a clean enjoyable for all experience to give all users maximum enjoyment. There are plenty of other websites on the web and not on tip.it a fansite to a game with one of the most restrictive censors alive (phone, address, [wagon]). On these other websites and forums people could post and learn about explicit topics and they don't really need to be seen by such a diverse usergroup here at a gaming website I dont think a mature content board with a warning would work because well, I can tell you from personal experience I do alot of work for an internet service provider and deal with many filter requests/complaints from parents about what should and shouldnt be blocked. Many parents consider myspace pornography (shocks me too) and even pornsites that say you must be 18 or older click here, dont keep kids out, curiosity is common and at best its a hopeful dream that really just hides the same explicit content behind one extra click to access it. which gives curious kids on highspeed a mere few seconds from seeing the posts they dont need to see. There are many places on the internet that can "unshelter" a kid in a hurry, I know I found plenty back when the internet was young in 95 and the sort. A gaming website, for a game many kids play doesn't need to be one of them As staff, we take it as our responsibility to do what we can to make sure kids dont see explicit content here

No doubt, you are partially correct, but many cool threads can be had, although zombie threads are overdone, creative threads like the one song/weapon/partner zombie thread were cool and fun for all ages. I think there can be a balance of stuff for all ages that doesnt have to be "mature". While some of the replies were funny, many of the images and content users were offended by or had issues with and its a fine line. I Mean, I guess I think of it like this, You have clean comedy and raunchy comedy and entertainment, done well they both can be funny, but the later can always be offensive to many people and miss its mark. The amount of complaints from off topic users in the middle/high school age range though were amazing in the sheer volume and overall, I think this is a positive change for off topic.

I think overall this will help off topic transcend from what Into a nutshell was a forum with conversation fit for a middle/high school lunch table or lockerroom to a forum where intelligent, thought provoking discussions can be had. I am a very lax person, but the contents of the "ever caught them thread" often crossed the line of acceptability for content many times and this course of direction is needed.

Thank you all, I look forward to serving the Tip.it Community and helping make sure Tip.it constantly improves. I look forward to working with you all, and I look forward to seeing the clans return to tip.it ~Das

Although I believe the first issue could of been more, all of the editors involved wanted to get this feature out and while it may of been "rushed" or subpar to some, I encourage positive feedback so Our editors can improve, and I have a feeling they will. To be fair over the tip.it times history, not every article has impressed me so I hope we all take this as a learning experience and be positive in our improvement of it. He is a clan mod. He has been since before the rollback, but due to oversights and complications he has not always had the flag, They were far from incorrect in that. Did you LOOK at his profile before posting? Did you ask before flaming? No. Consider me disappointed you rushed to make wild assumptions without contacting DBZ or myself. ~Das I look forward to issue #2

checking the underground lava maze dungeon now. nope

Cookies are in No way a "Threat" to your machine, generally most tracking cookies track your browsing patterns over a small network or series of websites, Thier are no super cookies that can keylog or install software on your machine or watch everything you do, never seen any in 4 years of dealing with clients in 4 years. They are for the most part harmless and needed to use any website with a username password certificate. I recommend security to thousands of customers daily and never would I ever tell them to set up cookie permissions for one site a time. Amazon, ebay and many other legit sites issue tracking cookies to track what you do customise the site for you Your ISP has poor spam blocking controls, I know on average a customer of ours gets 1-4 junk mail a day that is unsolicited, and catching spam is a pricey and compex manner. You in no way have ever gotten spam from a cookie, A cookie cannot harvest your email address and send it out, albeit yes for the sake of arguing gmail's cookie would know your gmail address. There is a way to stop spam and not lose messages, and an intelligent ISP does so with a well staffed team dedicated to it. I know my personal email, I use for buisness, many sites (Ebay,amazon,naxcom,beckett,target,walmart , countless other merchants) have this email, I may get 1 spam message every 2 days, its possible a website read your browser headers, or you just had spyware. I suggest you going to https://www.grc.com/x/ne.dll?bh0bkyd22 and clicking proceed and taking the browser header test, among other tests. Paranoia with computers is usually, no offense, out of ignorance because those are the customers who install 3 or 4 firewalls because 20/20 scared them. To be efficient with computers and support thousands of users on a daily basis you need to know the difference betweeen using and abusing the setting. ~Das
