Hahahaha, this is legendary. Go Pom~

Also, if you want to host a site, at least know how to disable hotlinking.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

If you're going to try and insult someone, at least make the insult true.

... insulting a professional web designer, THAT is legendary. :biggrin:

Yeah sweet cheeks. Fortunately we do not care what's your status whether you're a president or an ambassador. You're down here with us. Enjoy your stay.

About the Wii. Also got the money but considering whether to buy one because nothing good from the launch titles has interested me so far.

I was speaking idiomatically.

Ok, thanks. I'm a little raw right now because I have so many domains, and so many mp3s and pics, recently people have been hotlinking like crazy. I wouldn't even have bothered but it was sucking up tons of bandwidth for just one pic. Probably because this is a popular forum and a topical thread.

I didn't want to have to use blocking methods because I'm all over the place and hotlink my own shit everywhere, but I guess now I have too. Would you believe porn sites hotlink non-porn images of Japanese singers I store on my site? So irritating.

It's also messing my stats up, with false leads. back in 1999 I never had to worry about hotlinking... now everyone and their dog has an internet identity and thinks they can freeload without paying the toll.

Anyway, thanks for not being a dick. Peace. :love:

Nice. Maybe I should make it a case where if the original owner comes in here complaining about hotlinkers that the hotlinkers get banned for a day. I dislike hotlinkers too. There are plenty of free image hosts so there really is no excuse.

As much as I want to continue an off-topic discussion, Whining goes here.

Regarding how many blocks a save game takes up, it's hard to tell, but if you have a 1+GB SD card, why bother to worry? If you fill your console with save slots (not including practically every Virtual Console game), come let me know so I can reward you for insanity.

Red Steel: It is what it is--a shooter using the Wii controls. You're used to the controls, have fun with a shooter; you're not used to the controls, get ready to whine and fuss.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Actually, just replace the image with furry. Problem solved.

How ya doing, buddy?
Old Nov 21, 2006, 10:08 PM #12 of 53
Yeah, how about no.

I went and edited Pom's post so it would no longer be a bandwidth menace to the Internet.

Also, I'm moving this to board support because although it might be a rare occurance I do think hotlinking should be a bannable offence. You fuckers need to stop being lazy.

Do you know where in the heirarchy of stupid bitching about image hotlinking is, Acer?

It's a step up from bitching about the spelling of Aeris vs Aerith, for one. (It's BEEN TEN YEARS)

It's below dismissing evolution as poor science by a group of people who have never had science outside of a high school level.

It's also below pro-lifers defending their choice to never adopt or foster other people's children.

It's above internet wars over who decided to be a purple-furred husky first.

But, it's below teenagers complaining of their ennui and suggesting that they might as well kill themselves.

I'd say it's right around the level of internet geeks taking pictures of themselves sans shirt.



This is the stratum you lie in, Acer. Observe yourself and weep.

How ya doing, buddy?

Yeesh, I made a poll and thread for your opinions before I went and starting acting on the suggestion but you didn't have to be such an asshole. Really now, what's going on, lurker?

I defend my right to link directly to fatbeards other than my own! It's not like they're using any of that bandwidth anyway, no one visits their sites.
