An Angry Webmaster
-
This is what I read when I just visited www.lancersreactor.com;
Ok today i have become quite angry at the fact i am getting so many people emailing me pming me, shouting at me, swaring at me, calling me stupid names etc…
This is what is going to happen you wanted lancers not to be used as a testing ground you got it hope you enjoy just a forum to look at.
Click Here.
Turion
Obviously once you click where told to, you just get the forums.
Something tell’s me the pressure is getting to him…
-
Heh its changed now, seems like my posts putting that attitude into context, along with the other people agreeing has kicked his rear into touch.
-
I kinda liked my comment about posting the entire ‘How to win friends and influence people’ book… it followed on nicely from one of your posts. ;D
-
I agree, I have talked to Turion directly and he is a bit testy due to TLR.
-
Well seems TLR is crumbling at the foundations.
Glad im putting my effort into sites worth having it.
-
it had been coming for a while now,kinda a shame it will possibly end like it is
-
I’m still hoping for things to settle down a bit and I believe they will, but I just really hope they’ll be able to restore the old DBs.
-
Well if not I have 200mb of “best” compressed qualitly FL tools and stuff, which I will be of course uploading to StarPort for everyone to use.

Thank you mate. The more tools and utilities we have the better.
Hopefully in time we will have a large DB of tools covering all aspects of FL Modelling etc.

It’s not just the tools, though. The amount of tutorials stored on TLR is incredible, and losing it would be a proportionally incredible blow to the modding community.
-
I agree. Having the posts and tutorials for reference and/or troubleshooting purposes was invaluable. I think it is everyones duty to re-educate eachother and do their best to help a person out if they ask a question in the help sections. There will be others who have the same question in the future, and we can help them out.

You may want to speak with Gibbon at the Gizmo Studios Forum:
http://gizmostudios.proboards38.com/index.cgi
He has some basic modding tutorials I’m fairly sure you’d be able to copy. If anything it would be a time saver, and it couldn’t hurt to add them to our community. -
TLR is now back up. Hopefully it will stay up this time
-
This can’t really be called back up :(.
We appoligise for the site being down, but ask you to be patient with us, and we will have it back up soon.
Feel free to visit our IRC room (#Lancersreactor on irc.quakenet.org) or join our Teamspeak server (ts.lancersreactor.com)
for FL related discussion and help -
What I would love (in an ideal world) is for Lancers to recognise this site, and others, as a good thing.
They could split thier Database in half for instance. Give half to us and have to Freelancercommunity.net. Then when they have issues and the site goes down, people still have places to turn to for Downloads and Mods.
However, they almost point blankly refused to acknowledge the RIP teams site, so I doubt they will acknowledge us anytime soon.
It is a shame, its times like these we should be working together….
-
Well im going to be totally blunt and i dont care what people think of it either.
If they got their heads out of their arses and realised thei site and the RIP’s site is here to compliment TLR and not steal there thunder then reducing the work load would happen.
But i doubt that will happen because some people point blank refuse to see that these 2 sites are a good thing.
The more sources of information people can find on freelancer the better it is for us server admins and hosts.
If we relied on TLR the game would be dead in a few weeks with them yo yo’ing on and offline.
its like that grand old duke of york song isnt it
you know
“when they were up they were up, when they were down they were down, but when they were only half way up they were neither up nor down”
-
When diplomacy fails, there’s always war.
-
At this point there are far too many internal issues with the site that need to be resolved before true progress can be made on everything else. This probably sounds like a lame cop-out, the the situation that TLR is in right now is a bit more complicated than most people know.
There was a bit of a meet-up yesterday morning, in which I expressed my opinion that a healthy community cannot be composed entirely of one lone site - a position on which I have every intention of standing as firmly as possible.

Its good to hear you think along those line, and I do hope you stand firmly by that believe.
I havent logged back on to TLR since it came back on. Mainly because I didnt want to post anything nasty after the trouble’s they are having, as you have now made us aware, internally. Not that I would deliberately make a rude or nasty post… but you know what happens. ::)
I think I’ll pop over there and say hi soon.
