I've been around for almost a year now... But maybe your right. It's up to ACAMS to decide, though.

In all fairness, I really can't be arsed about who moderates the Junk Yard (or if it gets moderated at all!). My main interest is in the Real Robotics section, as ACAMS said that he needs a moderator for that. I am willing to offer my services for that.

We shall just have to see then, Nary. I usually end up disagreeing with S32 in the Junk Yard, so if he does become admin, I can see the Story Time thread being deleted... But I decided to kill myself in it, so...

*FOUR MONTH BUMP*
I don't want to bump this but do you still need staff for the Real Robotics section ACAMS? Me and G.K. (or if you want to be grammatically correct: "G.K. and I") are always here. And how about we make Sparkles admin of the Junk Yard? :P 630
Discussion / Re: Bring back the old ways!« on: October 28, 2010, 08:01:44 AM »
@Kill - Yes, I respect that, and I completely agree with Pwn's comment. The only problem is though, is that whilst I build in stock like Thyrus builds in DSL, no one else does.
And I understand that I probably won't be able to convince the whole community to change their building ways, especially people like JD, but like you said, bot building evolves and changes, and it still is. All that I am trying to do is to force it to turn right instead of left. I always will build realistic in stock, and all I hope for is that a small amount of the community will follow. Some of the Vets might, too, depending if they prefer the old ways or the new ways. As for me, well, I definitely prefer the old ways. @NFX - The old forums (my memory won't be too good) were absolutely brilliant. You will not believe how much happened in them, mods and ideas wise. I'm definitely not trying to make everyone have these restrictions, but I just hope for a small portion of the community to agree. 631
Discussion / Bring back the old ways!« on: October 28, 2010, 06:09:09 AM »
I, like many other people on this forum, was on the official RA2 forums (I was only on for 2 weeks though). I still remember the old ways of stock, in which we built "realistic" bots. The bots in stock which we now classify as "realistic" would fall apart after 2 seconds IRL.
Now, earlier today I read something that Sage said whilst browsing the forums. He wrote it about a year ago, but it intrigued me. He stated to RFS that bots built in stock are no longer realistic, and that he should know that by now (for those interested, he wrote it in MAD's topic "AceUpLink Survivors"). This is why I think that we should revert to our old ways with building in stock, and actually try and focus more on realism, rather than defences. I regularly check "A blast from the past... Checking 'da archives", and I'm astounded at how people build bots in stock now compared to back then. So who feels the same way? 632

Oh, and I forgot, he's running Windows XP. But next time I see him, I'll give him the patch.

I have sent my entry (Cassius 3). I might change it to Killertron though, as I would like a robot from series 4.

My friend, who some of you may know from the FRA Forum (tobsmithy), has got RA2.
I gave him a spare disk of it because I had two copies. But, however, the UI on his is all messed up, which makes it difficult to navigate around. I'll give you some brief info on it. I got a pirated copy of RA2 from PirateBay (OMG!!). I burnt it onto a disk twice, keeping a spare in case it didn't work. I then installed the no CD patch onto mine, but (I think) not onto the spare. As I no longer needed the spare, I gave it to him as a gift. It is stock v1.0. I didn't install the patch until I got DSL, which was a week later. So the UI is like how Stagfish's was. I'm not certain if the patch will help, as I gave him a badly made disk. Any ideas on what I can do? 635

The blade is on the wrong side as well. I like the way you've made the scales, though.

Where do you have to go to do that, then? Is it in the bindings?

I will correct them then. I never knew that spinning weapons don't need smartzones... How do they work then?
