Cool - I'll try and get some TUG thongs made up on cafepress.

Nice one Scopey. Glad you got it fixed Bundu & see you online soon.

The good news is that your getting to the server no problem with about 110 ping which is fine. The bad news - i'm still not sure what might be causing the problem.

mmm sounds kinda like your having some major lag out when connecting to the server. The server itself is based in New York city - I usually ping about 110 to it & so far no-one else has had any problems connecting to it that I know of. Your on ADSL - so thats good. Try the following just to see what you get. 1. open a command prompt 2. type: tracert 69.28.241.152 Copy & past the resulting details here - at least then we'll be able to see how your route to the server & see if there is a block somewhere. /me waits to see what happens. Your also welcome to join the guys on Teamspeak2 and see if anyone is around to try and help - TS2 IP: 66.250.220.147:8804 - PW: october - make sure you join as bundu basher so we know who you are.

Are you using any firewall programs or router? I'm guessing that something is being blocked. We are only running standard Ghost Recon + Desert Siege + Island Thunder on the server - make sure you have the latest 1.4 patch too.

wb & argh!

Dont panic - I get them too. Its a winxp thing & something to do with IE I believe. There is a new version of SpyBot out - 1.4 beta - so I;m hoping stuff like that will be fixed then.

Hi JJ Nice to see a fellow UK gamer on here.

Go for it sir.

I just tried clicking the 'sign in' button - it said it was trying to connect - but nothing - must be something we are missing.

** UPDATE ** Just updated the server today to latest version. Your clients should update when you run steam.

lol... it's true. I hate to wait for stuff.

I r never tried it - apparantly its like ASE buddies - you add peeps & can see what games they are playing etc...

Yep 199 it was - I could have got similar for about 145-170 if i'd gone via mail order - then there would be 10-15 p&p but I really wanted the thing now.

Was crusing round PC World this morning looking for some bargains and found myself a birthday present. (30th december FYI) A BFG Tech - GeForce 6600 GT OC AGP 8. 128mb - it rocks! http://www.bfgtech.com/6600GT.html

hehe.

Cool.

I decided to dump looking at Xoops... Mambo is bloody great... So, the new dev site link is just: http://www.clantug.co.uk Just trying to make sure all the content is ported over ok over the next few weeks.

Teamspeak 2 stuff added.

double woot. Mambo rocks - I have already managed to add a little flavour to it. 1. Logo added 2. vwar added

woot - the DNS is now active & the 2 sites are ready to play with. Feel free to register on each dev site to see what you get & play with things. My 1st task will be to get a nice theme/skin/template sorted.

Butch & Mort sigs updated.

We have decided to close the TUG Soldner Server as the developers - Wings - have chosen to ignore the community feedback from the beta program & failed to fix alot of very important issues, instead they have decided to move onto the Soldner Add-On. We had fun playing for a while there. With the server closing, we've decided to also close the Soldner Division for now.

So that I can play about with some other site tools like Mambo & Xoops to sse if they are better than php-nuke for our new site, I regged a new domain. http://www.clantug.co.uk The DNS is just in the progress of updating, so should be live within the next 24 hours. mambo here: http://www.clantug.co.uk/mambo xoops here: http://www.clantug.co.uk/xoops maybe other CMS systems out there to try too.
