Rage3d is down...

dhc014 · Jun 21, 2002, 05:15 AM

go there, you should be prompted for a password and username and domain, if you type a wrong password, then you get in and you see the old style! try it, I don't know how much longer it'll last... I bet Rage3d is updating the style again.

UM lmao heh did that to me too lol

applicator · Jun 21, 2002, 06:01 AM

It didn't last long. I get page cannot be displayed.

Jeff · Jun 21, 2002, 06:12 AM

Yeah, i saw that for only a second, then no page found again, but it was good while it lasted

.

dhc014 · Jun 21, 2002, 06:26 AM

Yeah, it's off and on. I don't get prompted for a password anymore...

digitalwanderer · Jun 21, 2002, 07:10 AM

And why is the fact that it is down important?

dhc014 · Jun 21, 2002, 08:11 AM

look at teh pictores. It's back up now

digitalwanderer · Jun 21, 2002, 08:25 PM

He broke it! There's a thread on it here.

[SIZE=xx-small](OK, so it ain't all that important. I just thought my comment was funny and wanted to bump the thread.) [/SIZE]

Jeff · Jun 22, 2002, 05:05 AM

I rather like being able to see the old style, now that they wrecked the site!

jk, but it did look better before.

digitalwanderer · Jun 22, 2002, 02:56 PM

You can choose the old style now...Ichy and JC caved in due to overwhelmingly popular demand. (A bunch of us old-timers REALLY hated the new schemes and kept whining...

)

Zardon · Jun 22, 2002, 03:04 PM

well its good they listened.

The humor is usually much zingier.

~~Crash Override~~ · Jun 22, 2002, 09:55 PM

im personally getting tired of them

i posted some info in a thread that Ichy deleted supposedly at the request of ATi.

It was emails and pms with Jeff Royle and HV_Developer

none of them contained private emails

The emails from Jeff had the standard devrel@ati.com email addy which is the publicly given address for the developer relations department. The PMs from HV_Developer well lol they wouldnt have a return email addy as they arent emails

There was no sensitive ATi data in those posts. All it had was my system specs some info from PowerDVD XP and a prob description of what happens with the Cats in SP1 for XP (which is now fixed

)

Shameless Crash hating? I think so

At least MrB is looking into it.

I never knew why they deleted it to begin with. What's wrong with making that choice available?

~~Crash Override~~ · Jun 23, 2002, 12:38 AM

Im just hoping theyll put the hard style back if they havent yet

Zardon · Jun 23, 2002, 12:53 AM

havent been there for a while, ive lost interest in rage3d for various reasons.

Haha, I can bet a large sum of money that they'll never do that.

Jeff · Jun 23, 2002, 01:10 AM

Well thats the style I used to use too

You don't seriously mean that do you?!?

You have no idea whatsoever of the hoops I jump through, and the time I spend trying to accomodate as many of the suggestions and as much of the feedback I get from users at rage3d.

Bitch all you want on some other forum... If you're tired of rage3d, you can post anywhere else you want... like here. But we had our conversation in PMs. You know why I removed them and it was nothing personal and you know that. If the folks here at driverheaven were in the same position I was regarding your posts, they'd have removed the same posts on this site if they had any sense as well. Complaining to MrB about it won't change anything... he'd have done the exact same as I did if it was him responding to the requests.

I was teasing Ichy, sorry I didn't add a winky but I didn't think you folks came around here that much.

NOOO!!!! Don't encourage him, please! (I'm teasing Crash!

Ah, but since we obviously don't (Ain't all serious tweakers by nature a bit of risk takers? In a techy-way.) and we probably would have handled it much differently involving lots of long meandering threads where I'd get to jump up and down and scream "CHEESEBALLS!" a lot and we'd generally have a bit of a hoop-de-doo trying to see how much we could piss off ATI. (They ain't exactly done much to help us out...except get a lot of us started on learning how to make buggery drivers work right on our own, without a lot of help from the manufacturer.

)

Once again, let's all say it together: "This is Driver Heaven, not Rage3D II!" Nothing against ya, I happen to love your site, but we'll just have a bit of fun being ourselves for a while. Sorry if'n I stepped on your toes poking fun, I really only meant it as fun.

that post was made before me and you traded PM's for one thing

as for another I am one of the folks here at DH....Im a mod heh

as for what I posted Im almost dead certain I could post the same info here without a prob as it wasnt divulging company secrets or any personal data other than my own

Hey at least this proves the theory that they allow the driver leaks to happen unimpeded

funny a driver leak that shows new design being leaked doesnt bother em.....however my crappy powerDVD log being posted does

Jeff · Jun 23, 2002, 10:49 PM

Although, if ATI did ask us to remove it, we probably would...

NO! STICK IT TO THE MAN!!!! Do not give in with out a fight, that's what I keep the lawyers on retainer for!

What country is the server based out of anyways...it could make a difference...

I've never had a pleasent dealing with ATI...my basic attitude is now "shoot first, questions once they're down....".

[SIZE=xx-small](Sorry Cyborg, I know it ain't my call. It's just my personal feelings in the matter.)[/SIZE]

I understand, and the server is in the US i think.

...from a legal/privacy stand-point that is.

That's ok, I know a lot more lawyers in the US than any other country at least.
