BHS "has proven themselves in the past" Discussion

description: defaulrt wrote on Fri, 09 September 2005 22:43 Here's the thing, if Crimson would have thought of the idea of snagging FDS serials she would have just like many others would have. Why would she have done that, when the existing system of requesting and receiving serials was working just fine? If someone needed one, they could go to the westwood page and get one. Now that Adad stole them all, nobody can get them anymore. This thread is about asking Adad to turn some of them over to us to make available to the community again, I'm not sure where you are trying to take it. defaulrt wrote on Fri, 09 September 2005 22:43 Its Adad's choice of who gets them being he gathered them. People do ask him for them and he shares them. He dosn't slap anything on it so they don't have to obey by any rules to get them. Since he has them all, yes it's his choice, and we are giving him the choice/option of giving some of them to us so that we can make them easily available to everyone. I don't know what these rules you are talking about that we would "slap on"...the only thing mentioned was that we would have safeguards in place so that another person couldn't exploit like he did and take all of the serials. defaulrt wrote on Fri, 09 September 2005 22:43 BHS "has proven themselves in the past" what have they proven? Get some programers together make a program thats suppose to prevent cheaters but fails many times. Then treat everyone else like crap because they are not *coders* BHS just looks more like power pushers to me. We have proven that we are here to support the community. BHS pays over $500 per month just for the servers that run and maintain the RenGuard network, not to mention all of the mental effort, skill, and collaboration we do working on projects and applications for the community. Power pushers? We are doing all of this for you and the rest of the community. Sheesh. It's pretty laughable that you support what Adad did and are fine with it, yet everything we do for you …

A good idea has been turned into a n00b hideout. I know what many of you will say to my next comment. "get renguard its not that hard". but to tell you the truth, renguard has crapped up my computer and ren several times, has gone on freak updating sprees that never stopped until i removed it, and it lags my ren, so please dont even say it. but i cant count the number of times i have walked into a server that has the command !force renguard and have been forced to have it after getting 1 HS. ive also walked in with a name iHAXuDONT, and names like it and get forced renguard 5 seconds after i join. also all the n00bs who say RenGuard is not able to be bypassed, its a load of BS, of course it can. as a long time player of ren and mod/admin of several servers over my time, i have caught and banned dozens of people who had renguard on and running. that is what disgusts me, not the program itself, but what the program has made available for cheaters. i dont know the amount of tests i have tried to perform that the first response from the cheater is "i have renguard" it does not fool me, but it fools the lesser experienced. i remember waiting forever for this program to come out. thought it was a great idea, and really wanted to see renegade once again cheat free. unfortunatly it has not come to that, and i dare to say (not happily) RenGuard has done more harm then good to the renegade community.

description: snipgod wrote on Sat, 10 September 2005 20:59 RenGuard has done more harm then good to the renegade community. It's that sort of uneducated opinion that disgusts me. Because it means that I know for a fact you have banned dozens of great players who did their best to prove they weren't cheating. We in BHS watch the community 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. When an exploit comes out, we find it and fix it. IF there is anyone out there actively cheating with RenGuard, the number of people doing so numbers no higher than like 10. All you do is see someone who's 'too good' and you assume he's cheating and consequently bypassing RG. I hate that so many server owners have to be so ignorant.

Run two servers. One with RenGuard and one without. After three months, make an average of two things: 1) How many players each server has 2) How many cheaters, balanced against how many unique players (obviously a frequently full server could have more cheaters than a frequently empty server) To do this, you'll first need to secure a CPU and bandwidth.

Thus, you'd be doing the "shoot me in chest" check whether or not they're running RenGuard. With that in mind, I fail to see how it has caused any significant increase in your duties.

description: Show me an aimbot that improves our k/d ratio, then we'll talk. The most popular aimbot is OGC hook and it actually lowers your accuracy and is therefore bullshit and not worth our time to counter. We have NEVER claimed that RenGuard would definitely positively stop 100% of cheaters. It does in fact stop ALL publically-released cheats. Anyone who thinks RenGuard is not helping obviously has only started playing Renegade AFTER RG came out, because they don't remember what it was like when you couldn't even play for 10 minutes without some final Renegade user coming through and changing the course of the game.

description: So many incorrect facts there. 1. Blackhand Studios does not run any servers. Do not confuse n00bstories with Blackhand Studios. 2. Tell me an bypass that is actually working. Everything that got reported to us has been fixed by me. 3. Blackhand Studios does not run a IRC server. 5. This forum is run by BHS and is still considered private property. Free speech does not apply here. If we think anything does not belong here, we move it. Insulting us on our own forum is not too good. 6. Again, show me one bypass, that actually works and is not fixed. 7. Again, BHS does not run a IRC server. BHS has a few members of n00bstories, but many of our people, like me, have nothing to do with n00bstories. So, in essence, BHS does not run a IRC server. -- Again, why do you connect BHS to n00bstories all the time? Those two organisations are not related any way. I see many programs made by Blackhand Studios, and you cannot tell me that noone in the community uses them RenGuard BRenBot Core Patch 1 scripts.dll LFDS wrapper RenHawk I don't see YOU contributing anything to the community and spending lots of money just to keep cheaters out of the game. Also, there was no BHS when RenGuard was being developed, it was ounded a few weeks before RenGuard was finished.. I didn't join BHS, I founded it.. And you don't know anything about RenGuard 1.04 either.. so I suggest not to talk about anything that you know nothing about.

I personally know that what they do is for the love of a game not some power trip. Wtf kind of power would they get from having control of this game??? I mean really, use your brain before you say something that stupid. With out BHS and their time, energy and money Renegade would be in a sorry sorry state and we wouldn't be having this discussion.

description: Seriously, what's with the constant paranoia. The biggest part of the computers are infested with spyware, diallers, virusses, because of people downloading warez, using programs like kazaa and everything. And why is that, because people trust all the BS that is released on the internet, as long as they can download music for free. But when RG was created, oh no these people must have some bad intentions. RG stole serials, RG had a trojan horse, RG made me ugly. Seriously, have a bit of respect to these people. They don't earn anything with this, so why do you think they made it. Because they like the game, and wanted to do something good for it. People seem to forget the millions of post about how cheats would kill Renegade, a few years ago. These people are in this community from the beginning,if they wanted to fuck us they could have done it a long time ago. If crimson wanted to kill the community, she could just pull the plug out of these forums. Sheesh, If you don't trust these people, I have only one advise: PULL the plug out of your modem, your safe than from all the evil people on the internet. - My respect to BHS, who try to make this game better for us.

description: The concept of RG is fine, but I just won't run it. I just play on servers where people know me. I could pick holes in the design of the program etc, but there's no point. The best thing to come out of RG is the blocking of kiddie cheaters with bighead etc. The worst thing is the belief that a person running RenGuard is not cheating, and that someone not running it has something to hide. I don't run it, but I have nothing to hide. I have been cheat free online from day one. I have researched cheats on Multiplayer Practice as part of moderating, but thats it. I could go on, but why bother, you will just disregard this post as it disagrees with what you say.

I believe that poeple like us (being admins and mods) do not need to be going around encouraging the brainless twats that can't form their own thoughts that RG is flawed in any way. All they do then is run around and say RG doesn't work because spoony said it wasn't 100%. When in fact you were asked to back that statement up and you could not. And for the record it is also the claim of Crimson and BHS that every flaw in the past has been fixed (and quick) and is currently 100%. Does that explain why I say that?

description: Hey, I just got this great idea! To solve all the bitching about how Renguard killed your goldfish and blew up your monitor, and caused lagg, and any other crazy stuff.[/sarcasm] Lag is a bitch, plain and simple. If you don't want any lagg follow the below steps, they're all simple to do. First thing, make sure you don't have 56k. Second make sure your computer meets AT LEAST the minimum requirements, but the recommended requirements or better would definately be a +, here's where I find the minimum, and recommended requirements http://www.cncden.com/renegade_sysreq.shtml Second, if you have the requirements met and Renegade is still laggy, make sure your lower your video setting, or maybe even your resolution by running the Renegade config exe (WWConfig.exe) in the Renegade directory. Third, make sure that when you logon to WOL you go to your internet options and set your connection speed to LAN/T1 or whatever it is. Fourth, Make sure you turn off AIM, MSN, Yahoo, Xfire, or whatever. Because they use bandwidth, memory and CPU power. Fifth, don't use any of those damned warez programs, they always seem to contain some sort of a spyware, malware, or adware. If you have used such a program, remove it, and don't use it again. You should also do a virus check, spyware check, and an adware check which can all be hogging bandwidth. To make it easy for you to find free programs to use to do this, I have included the following links. . . Spybot-S&D: www.safer-networking.org/en/download/index.html Ad-Aware: www.lavasoftusa.com/software/adaware/ Nod32: www.nod32.com/download/download.htm Sixth, don't even allow anything you don't want to start up automatically to start up. go to Star > Run then type msconfig. Check selective startup then uncheck systems.ini. Then click startup on the top left of the menu, and deselect the stuff you don't want to start up. Well, that about does it, I never have any performance decrease of any sort when Running RenGuard compared to not running …

description: 1. My message stated most people dosn't include everyone there as not everyone plays renegade. 2. What have you done to make you a hypocrit? Let me take you back awhile to when RG wasn't out. Bighead had first shown its face. In crimson79 server. A mod named warranto and a mod named snprsc0pe were in game on different teams and snprsc0pe was killing everyone in sight and out of sight. The mod warranto thought nothing of snprsc0pe killing everyone in buildings and just ended up leaving. I join and having already seen the bigheads and had asked to test the mod snprsc0pe went ahead and took action. Snprsc0pe failed and even posted screen shots having bighead on. What happened? I was perm banned by warranto and zlined off the network for harrasing a mod. What happened to the screen shots? They were deleted off the site and n00bstories just keep denying any evidence of cheats. 3. What have you done to try and control everything? By doing what you did then and still do. 4. What name have I banned at irc.n00bstories.com, or in the n00bstories mIRC channel? Wow what a question theres to many to count. As almost every person with power there uses it even if the person didn't say a word. They still get judged by you people. 5. What lies have I spread? "There is no such thing as cheats" "These we don't spread lies" 6. Who have I bashed, that I didn't like? Your speaking to him now. K? THX. 7. To the other question about n00bstories. Why was it brought up in this thread? I don't know perhaps because they both intertwine.... Same people... same names... same sites... GOM COULD IT BE BHS IS n00bstories!?!?!??!

I do, however, see you acting quite childish. Blaming Crimson for things done in the past (it's quite a while in the past, get over it)... putting shame to n00bstories (which is not only off topic, but I'm frequently in the IRC channel which you describe and from what I can tell, anyone who gets disrespected there has deserved it for one reason or another). I'm not saying n00bstories doesn't deserve it, I am fairly new around here. I am saying that I am seeing a very different picture than the one you are trying to paint.

description: I suppose we did deny the existence of cheats before RG...for a couple of days. Blazer, mac, and I knew about the cheats long before most people, and our first idea to defend the community was to deny their existence. This was not because we didn't want people to think the game wasn't as perfect as it once was. I think we all know the game is far from perfect (though we're working on it). We did it in the attempt to keep other people from looking for these cheats. It failed, quickly, and the plan was aborted, quickly. It became clear very quickly, within days in fact, that we couldn't deny it any longer. We instead reversed tracks and established the Server Owners' forum to collaborate and share cheater IPs, and started work on RenGuard, which we also announced at that time. I don't know why you still carry a chip on your shoulder from those dark days but I think it's about time to grow up and get over it.

A site dedicated to MAKING FUN OF N00BS sometimes bashes idiots. That is, wow, amazing. I learned something new today. Wow... who would have imagined that a community based on making fun of idiots makes fun of idiots. The idiocy we're seeing here is relating BHS to n00bstories. Let's look at the BHS team, shall we? mac - Director of BHS, lead of RenGuard, not a member or participant in n00bstories. Blazer - Director of BHS, heavily involved in n00bstories (and oh yeah, he's my boyfriend) Crimson - Director of BHS, owner of n00bstories Scorpio9a - At one point helped with some of the coding of n00bstories, no longer involved. jonwil - Never involved with n00bstories v00d00 - Never involved with n00bstories Silent_Kane - operator in #n00bstories IRC, other than that not involved with n00bstories Laeubi, Minax - never involved with n00bstories zunnie - never involved with n00bstories So, let's see, between BHS and n00bstories we have two members who overlap in both, then we have one director not involved, 5 people never associated as staff for n00bstories, 1 person involved for a short time in the past, and 1 person who has a relatively small staff role. So yeah, I can see why you'd think n00bstories and BHS are one and the same. I mean, 2 out of 10 members are n00bstories staff!

Adults know when they get bashed for being retarded, they're either intentionally being retarded or are smart enough to realize that what they just did was retarded and thus learn from the mistake. Children on the other hand will go cry to their mommies and complain that they were picked on.

Here's a newsflash, maybe if people actualy helped those that don't understand the game to get a better feel, then maybe just maybe half them wouldn't resort to using cheats.

description: I have never treated Adad like crap! That is a complete LIE. Also, you yourself said that BHS was best for the community when you said "I don't deny that Groups of people working together have made things better for renegade." I will always claim that BHS is the best thing Renegade has going for it at the moment, and I always will. I know firsthand the raw talent we have and all the things that the members have accomplished.

I do deny to like Groups of people working together making things while dissing on other peoples achievements." Why? Thats just what you do. You even said you do it. Thats why you created the n00bstories community isn't it? To diss on everyone else? Another part where BHS and n00bstories intertwine. What BHS makes n00bstories takes credit for it because their the same people. Same people putting others down. "I don't deny that Groups of people working together have made things better for renegade." <--- I said groups working together Not BHS individually Oh and to add in about the thing for Adad. The moment he set eyes on the #n00bstories channel he was abused. The moment you created a thread asking for serials he was dissed on.

description: Um, wrong again. n00bstories doesn't take credit for anything BHS does. Show me proof or shut your lie hole. I am not responsible for what other people say or think about Adad. I never attacked his actions. I respectfully requested he let us redistribute some of the serials he has. Once again, back your shit up with proof, or shut your lie hole.

description: lol You don't exactly walk up to someone and tell them to their face that they lie, cheat, and steal, and then demand proof of otherwise. You'd not only possibly get your face turned inside out, but the proof is that there is no proof -- if someone hasn't lied, they wouldn't have any lies to give you. If they don't cheat, they wouldn't have any means of their cheats to give you (or in this case, screenshots of such). If they don't steal, they would not have anything stolen to give you. Edit: added more in-depth example
