It's not against the rules :P

It's probably no more illegal that it is to have the name DEAT or GORT :wink:

Ah, I suppose it's not now the searcg function has been disabled.

It wouldn't screw up keyword searches anyway.

'GORT'?

GORT.

Scolo's version of DEAT/Modbomb/Deaden etc.

Was does the acronym DEAT stand for, anyways? I know it's when a nation gets deleted, but where do those particular letters come from?

As I understand it, it was a typo of "DEAD" which Neut then adopted.

And the word is now used as an inside joke for all NSers. 8)

You might have gotten "DEAT", but I got Modbomb and Deaden (and G0RT, GORT being an ex-nation and DEATion). :twisted:

Quantity has a quality of its own. :P

You Siro, btw, DEAT?

Why would you assume me to be Siro? :twisted:

Your first post sounded somehow Sirocciod, and he loves the "8)" emoticon.

You second sounded more Goobergunchic or Corinthal.

Goobergunchia and Corinthe is how you spell it.

And I used the emtion because my main nation doesn't really use it ever. By know you'll know who I am because this is how my mind works. No more secret. :(

Goobergunchia

The ":twisted:" emooticon gave it away

Of course we also tend to thing very similarly.

I was reading your profile today, and I can count the differences on one hand. It's a bit scary. :shock:

I was correcting the spelling or Goober's name. I am not Goober. :twisted:

I was correcting the spelling or Goober's name. I am not Goober. :twisted:
Oh. *thinks*

BTW, the spelling was deliberate.

I was creatifying words. :wink:

I could reveal it....but then it wouldn't be fun. :twisted:

:idea: Naleth!

:P

Wow! This time was......wrong as well! :P This is fun! :twisted:

Maybe it's you! :lol: :wink: I dunno....is it a mod nation?

Or the Basenji, but as he just posted. . .(could be trying to throw me off).

So it is not Siro, not Goober, and not Corinthe, and they have a sense of humor, and know me fairly well.

Reploid and Salusa are slight posibilities, Bas is more likely, could be Crazy girl.

At least your on the right track. I'll just tell you if you keep it quiet. If you want to know, tell me and I'll PM you.

Hmm. . . Reploid is on and does act like that, but I am probably flattering myself to hink that it is her.

Hack and Enodia are the other mods aside from Siro whom it is not, and Salusa and Cog who are not as . . . intricate. . . with their jokes as this, and Stephistan, whom I do not know particuarly well.

Enodia is the one who was most recently on, but more likely it is a player.

Crazy girl is a possibility, but I think that it is more likely Bas.

*waits for newest DEAT response to load*

On the other hand, Loop might use "PM", but he aint been on for hours.

Narrowed down to Crazy girl I think. If not then I'll have to retrace my steps.

Boy, this IS fun!

Crazy girl? Maybe, maybe, can't tell you who I am. This nation owner is supposed to be kept a secret. So you'll never know! Bwahahahaha!!! :twisted: :wink: :lol: :P

Well, I'll go to dinner and then look at several things whic might give me a idea.

I think that you are, however, as previously you simply said "I'm not"

Boy, this IS fun!

:lol: Got that right Kat.

reploid? early in the morning for cg i think.

I think that you're likely right.

I was looking at the times, and they did seem to correlate pretty well.

And the post style is Reploid-sounding.

Of course if it is Reploid it means that I can't promise not to reveal it to find out and then reveal it, unless I wanna wake up modbombed.

Kinda ironic, in that case that 'twas I who got the name "modbomb" on a puppet.

It's me. :wink: Got you guys good. :lol: I'm off for the night though, so night all!

I ruled you out when I noticed that you switched users within a minute.

How did you do that?

You will never know....

You will never know....
Peng-Pau = Bas's UN Puppet?

That can't be right. :?

Peng likely knows a lot more about code than anybody here except Salusa, and Bas is almost as unknowledgeable as I am.

No, Peng-Pau and Bas are separate people. If you'd use IRC you'd know that... :P

Goobergunchian is the adjective form of Goobergunch/Goobergunchia.

Klaatu Varada Nicto!

It was only a matter of time... :roll:

Whenever I try using different browser types, it overreaches the LAN.

Then again, nation creation potentially takes a lot more bandwidth than does posting I suppose.

Give me a link to a good IRC chat program for windows that does not require sound. I googled it, and am now quite confused.

It's quite easy to disable sound on mIRC.

There's also Peng-Pau's IRC applet on page 4.

Looking at this is making me understand how AOL users feel when they look at a normal web browser.

I'll help. Download it here (http://www.mirc.com/). Do you have AIM? I can guid you from there.

I downloade mIRC, then noticed that it was shareware, then downloaded what I'm pretty sure is freeware from the site with the fist, but windows can't read the ".dms" extenstion, so I went to irssi but they have two files with two even weirder extentions.

Can you please give me a link to a freeware download for windows XP(this is probably the problem) and tell me exactly what to do?

Ok, just go to this page (http://veratien.ksilebo.net/ns/irc/chat.php) and fill in the form. If the applet loads, all is well, if not, install Java (http://javashoplm.sun.com/ECom/docs/Welcome.jsp?StoreId=22&PartDetailId=j2re-1.4.2_03-oth-JPR&SiteId=JSC&TransactionId=noreg) first and install it, then that applet will work. It's a lot easier to use than mIRC.

Failing that:

Use IceChat (http://www.icechat.net)

I do. :P

Ahh thanks.

My little brother uses AIM, so I avoid it (amd MSN and YIM on pricipal).

Wait, mIRC is shareware.

I'm not going to pirate software, and I'm not going to pay $20 for it.

You get a 20 day trial. After that you have to register. This can easily be avioded by uninstalling it, then reinstalling it. It'll give you a whole new trial of 20 days again.

Thank you, my father has put of installing Java on my computer (he has a special version that he wants to install or something), so I'll use the one thing which looks like a normal internet service (username, password, confirm password, email, TOS)

Well, I used a keygen for mine, and still have the keygen. :twisted:

Software pirates evil. :P

I have Asperger Syndrome, and hence am psycologically unable to pirate software (unless it is from a huge corparation and even then I only have one pirated program, which I never use), or not read the TOS, (even though all TOS except for the NS TOS are identical) . :(

Qaal, when you get IRC and join the channel, I'll make a keygen for you.

You actually don't need a keygen for mIRC.

All it does is bug you a bit to register. All the keygen does is get rid of that.

At the risk of sounding like I use WebTV, what is a keygen?

Either I'm doing something wrong, or I don't see why anybody would care to use IRC.

I'm using IceNet and I think that I have it mostly figured out, but, how do I register with irc.esper.net channel: #nationstates_general? :?

When I go to http://irc.esper.net I get a webhosting service, and registering on channels is not in the IceNet FAQ.

Seriously...I don't know what's happening.

I know what's happening... EsperNET doesn't like him. It's killing him because it can't decode his host, therefore it assumes he's a null machine...

Qaa, try turning off your firewall.

I think that my father has no intention of doing that.

He's worried about hackers which is why he put it up, and he wouldn't set it so that I can use my computer as a webhost, so why would he do it to allow me to use a chat program?

note: making a suggestion about a program i have used all of twice and know very little about (mIRC ... not even the right program :P).

Any chance you could get him to just open up just port 6667 (EsperNET's port) on the firewall?

I'll see about that tomorrow.

I don't want to touch that button again tonight.

Interesting, 4 pages and still no answer here as to his name being allowed ( WTF, mods have a life?).

As such, just to throw in my 1.4 cents, I think the player did nothing wrong creating the name, since it is not clearly an attempt to look the part of a mod. But, since it has Mod in it, it will confuse newer players and should likely be shrivled before the NS community.

I don't have a problem with the name.
