Title: Crosshair kit
Post by: DKG on February 15, 2010, 11:51:35 pm
I'm selling a hardware (thefore undetectable) crosshair kit for aliens.  It's a complex piece of engineering I've been working on for years. Now I've decided I should share my hard work with the comunity for a small fee of 700$.

The great thing about this kit is it's not specific to Trem.  I've been using it for headshots in COD too.  The advanced technology can theoretical be used for any FPS.

So, why only 700$?  Well, because I'm a nice guy.

What if it doesn't work?  I offer a lifetime money back guarantee.

What is in the kit?  After years of refining this unique hardware approach to "cheating" I've stripped down the components needed (which ultimately reduces the cost to, yes, YOU! the end user)to just 3 parts.

The kit includes.
1 pair of scissors
1 roll of state of the art PVC insulating tape (NOW IN A RANGE OF COLOURS!)
1 Instruction manual (in the language independent format of diagrams)

...
I'll soon be releasing the source code for my, up untill now, patented function

tiny_triangle_of_tape_stuck_to_screen(client)

to developers.
Here's an example of how the function could be used in pseudo code

if tiny_triangle_of_tape_stuck_to_screen(client)
  kick(client, "For using a crosshair")

So take advantage of the crosshair kit while there's still time!

Quite possibly. It sounded to me like a joke about how futile it is to consider alien crosshairs "cheating" when you can just tape crosshairs to your monitor. But alien crosshairs aren't cheating (which is implied by saying they'll be in the next version of the game) so I don't get it.

I can see how 1.2 may have an impact on my business.  Time to remarket.
"Tired of dropping your mouse?...With this 'new' kit..."
OK, I give up.  Hope some people had a little chuckle, albeit at my epic fail at humor. ;)

DKG, where can I buy one? How can I contact you?? You have made a huge mistake in your marketing ploy in leaving out your contact information so that possible future customers such as myself and Your Face can take advantage of your unique solution to the endless problems that we encounter as helpless victims of bad development schemes.

I wish he had ruined it. Unfortunately,  Tremulous 1.2 is still not available. Norfenstein's point is not valid. This solution will work until Tremulous 1.2( Also note that it is not restricted to Tremulous; works for other games too ).
Norfenstein, nice try though.

Shut your fucking arrogant mouth already, why every fucking post you make on Tremulous.net is basically you trying to look smarter than you are, assface?

Perhaps you just feel stupid around me?  I'm not trying to look smarter than I am.  Theoretically that's not possible.  You look as smart as you look no matter how/why you're posting. 

Also my post was no different than Himself's post.  I was just replying to Norf in a more serious manner.  Sorry to upset you Mr. Iabz.

Theoretically it's not possible to be smarter than you are, but trying to be is. Then again, as I told you in another thread, learn to read.

*sigh*  Not really.  You can try to *be* anything, but trying to show yourself as smarter than you are doesn't really work, because you're only as smart as your post.  If you're smart enough to make a post that's smarter than what you'd normally be capable of.  You're still as smart as that post.

Didn't you say you were ignoring me? You need to be consequent with what you say, assface. Stop trying to look like a grown up and accept that you're still a kid. ;)

I never denied I'm a kid.  I'm 21, and I realize thats plenty immature.  But I also realize that this is the internet, but even more so this is the forum for a video game on an internet, then even beyond that this is TREMULOUS forums the Satan version of all video game forums for a video game that is ON the internet.  So I have that flexibility to be a smart ass, be immature, and defend hopeless cases.  Really, I'm happy in my clan and have my friends and those I respect there and we get along great.  So why do I need to be perfect here?  I don't, I can flame and be arrogant and cause all the mayhem I want and in reality there is no consequences.  I can get banned from trem.net, but I don't see that happening for just being slightly trollish, otherwise only a small handful of those who post here now-a-days would still be around to post.
