New GTAIV On Pc News

Finally the clues start trickling out. As they do and have done for years.

These aren’t set in stone clues from Rockstar Games, but the clues I have found stay within the routine and system of Rockstar Games’ method of clues:

See the kids have gotten lazy and so Rockstar does not realize they are out there. There used to be hordes and groups of people actually trying to find the next clue and or how to compile the frickin’ game themselves. But from what I see, Rockstar Games does not see that the kids need to hear the company say “hey stupid, we play a game of find the crap before we release to PC first… yes, every time!” It makes us drool before we get the game. It makes us prove we are the smartest of the gaming world.

The game is coming and we can see it in April from what I suspect and see. That puts us right on schedule for what it wanted in the first place, but a year later due to the hold of the 360 version and Sony arguement.

Yes, Grand Theft Auto is meant for the PC.

Blizzard to End cheats

Yeah right. They could, they never will.
unless they charge so much that you wouldn't want to waste your money when you get banned.
but that much money, the games really aren't worth it.

Blizzard declares war on Battle.net cheats

The Warcraft III developer shutters nearly 300,000 accounts tied to illicit programs.

In what might be one of the biggest cheat purges ever, Blizzard today closed 282,000 Battle.net accounts associated with game hacks and illicit programs. "In keeping with our aggressive stance against cheating," said a post on Battle.net, "we have permanently closed 263,000 StarCraft accounts and 19,000 Warcraft III accounts."

In addition, Blizzard permanently banned 1,100 Warcraft III CD keys used with the shuttered accounts and forbade another 8,000 from ladder play for one month. "Repeat offenders risk having their CD keys disabled, which will result in the permanent removal of their copies of StarCraft or Warcraft III from Battle.net," said Blizzard, which also issued a stark warning to would-be cheats: "We will continue to monitor Battle.net for cheating and take action as needed."

Blizzard's actions are the latest in an ongoing anticheat offensive by developers of online games. At the end of January, DICE included Punkbuster anticheating software in the v1.6.19 patch for its ultrapopular online WWII shooter Battlefield 1942.

Char was formerly one of the thirteen core worlds of the Confederacy, but it is most notorious as the primary hive planet of the alien zerg. Upon its discovery, Char was found to be an inhospitable volcanic planet with thick ash covering most of its surface and tainting its acrid atmosphere. The hazardous environment is further intensified by extremely high levels of cosmic radiation from Char's volatile pairing of binary stars, a class VI F0 sub dwarf orbiting an M8 irregular variable. Char's elliptical orbit means whole regions of its sunward face can become molten seas during a close approach, with temporary islands forming in them due to rapid cooling as the planet swings away to the frozen outer reaches of the system.

Domain name Hell

After getting a bill for an automatic update to my domain and storage. Well I freaked out and started to cancel. then I remembered that my affiliate settings are signed up through that domain name. I decided that it would be best if just transfer my domain name over to my pow web account.. well when I called the 1800 number to get the refund, "Rodney" (clearly not his name) Some guy I am assuming is somewhere in the middle east answered the phone. Hey I am cool with anyone at all times. but for god sakes what are saying?. I was so excited I got my refund and all I just hung up the phone.. Well "Rodney" closed my account intirely. I still have 4 months left on the storage and a year and a half left on the domain name. Well I call again, this time "joey" answered the phone.. Um this dude sounded just like Rodney..

Well I get go through a huge hokey pokey and finally I get my website signed up to my new host.

I am the poppa of

truxtertech.com

iworkwithtech.com

iworkwithpeople.com

For now they all point to the same spot. I am recreating iworkwithtech and iworkwithpeople . I have miniature plans. Lets see what I can come up with.

I suggest you do your research. It is a battle to leave 50megs.com. who by the way is owned by mysite.com who is owned by freewebs.com.

who is owned by BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH. It goes on for ever. Fact is, 50 megs gives you 1 gig of storage

Most new domain places out there like blue host, powweb and on and on give you 15 TB or more.

Custom built computer (Jewel box Project)

Today I was Clicking around in the G4 forums. You know , Looking for game news.

Well I stumbled upon a thread that caught my eye . They guy seems to have built a

Complete custom pc case with the idea of it looking like a Jewel Box. Look at the way he navigates the air through that thing. and the heatsinks he has all over everything. I mean the video card has the same heatsink as the processor. Amazing.

He has this thing designed to a T. Except two things. The second platform has no front support, and the build just looks kind of retro ugly. But the way it looks does not mean squat. I am 100% for the cooling it has.

here is the complete project

I have to say.

very good job man.

How does one get traffic to their forum?

Man I spent 2 days setting up m forum and chatroom. I have done all i can to get traffic to them and I do get traffic, but none fricken signs up. They just show up and look around and then bail. It's like they don't want to be the only person posting on a vacant forum. But man, someone has to be the first to go there and post. I am tempted to make fake accounts. but I can't see how to make posts and not feel like a dillweed.

Heck the forum is the same age as the chatroom. One month. There is no irc relation at all. My site hosts the full weight of the bandwidth. Heck I have tons of bandwidth and tons of storage . I started a contest and posted the link while trying to not be spammy.

How in the hell do I get people to post ?
