Re: Large File Transfers - I need some advice

Thank You Trench!

Yeah, it's nothing sensitive so using something like wettransfer is what I am looking for!

Large File Transfers - I need some advice

Hey all, I need to transfer a roughly 1 gig file to a friend. Since my and most email services don't allow for that, is there some sort of vehicle for making large transfers? Maybe some where I can upload and ONLY my buddy can download from. It's already a zip file so I can't make it smaller and sen...

Re: Reconciliation with Hello Server

First of all, I really didn't get your first paragraph but that's probably my fault. Can you clarify it a bit better? Secondly, I am not sure of what you mean by "flex his new admin status"? What makes you think I have any admin power at all and if I did, what power did I exercise by givin...

Re: Reconciliation with Hello Server

It seems like some of you are looking for all the 'gory' details for whatever reason, whether to take sides or to just chime in on how the admins handled this "situation". However, not only are we, the general public, not going to get the full details, but anyone not an admin doesn't need ...

Re: Reconciliation with Hello Server

Blink, Not all of us play this game as way to get together with friends. For me it is a form of release from pain. As such, most nights, I REALLY don't want to talk to anyone. I am by nature, somewhat introverted, so common conversations is something I tend not to do. It's nothing personal. I think ...

Re: Tried other games for first time in 20 years

A little off topic but god I loved the original 'Unreal Tournament' and all the user maps. Me and a buddy of mine "Flint" would spend hours fighting it out in the bathroom map. I swear I was so mad at myself when I lost my backup and all the user files to UT. If anyone has a copy of it, ta...

Re: Help Support Otto's Service dog

You hit it right on the nose Blink! They estimate it costs about $50,000 to house, care, feed and train the service dogs.

I spent 2 weeks getting trained.

One of our dog's didn't eat the turkey, but she did pull a pumpkin pie off the counter. The wonderful awesome little bitch ruined what is considered by me one of the greatest pumpkin pies ever. But then I am partial to my wife's baking.

Re: New DC video.....maybe?!

By the way, Otto would prefer not to be filmed. Showing his likeness on video could endanger his and his dog's life as they are both in the WPP (witness protection program). If somehow he is filmed, please put the little black line across his eyes or pixelate his face.

Thank You

Look, I am not advocating for NOT putting tons of mines down. All I am saying is that the first person who has the wherewithal and ability to place mines in a strategic place should be the one who gets first chance at the kill. If you feel that more mines are needed in a specific spot, place the sec...

Re: Some food for thought by Otto

It started out as 2 lbs of tomatillos and 10-12 dried chiles. So I would estimate the batch to be about a 1 and a half pounds (maybe a bit less).
Lets just say, for the two of us, this is just like candy! Almost everything and anything will be dipped into it LOL.

I decided to make my family famous salsa today. It's a pan roasted Arbol chile and flame roasted tomatillo based salsa. The first picture is of the traditionally hand ground chile paste. The metate (Spanish mortar and pastel) was my wife's mom's and is perfectly worn down. The next 2 are of the past...

I also think more of us should let the flag killer attempt to retrieve his flag. the other thing I kinda hate is when a certain player throws his mines in front of someone else's.
