I haven't really followed C&C news for the last few years, but as far as I know it's the most complete and accurate implementation of a WOL server created so far. The service wasn't launched in the end, correct, but it didn't get absolutely nowhere.

As far as the community goes, it may as well have never existed. And yet it's been used as proof of what a saviour Null is. All we've done is point out the stupidity of the claim...

Hell, one of these days I might port the code over to InspIRCd and release the source (but probably not, because I don't see the majority of you getting less fucking stupid any time soon!).

Well, up to you... you can give the community something worthwhile or you can make feeble excuses not to based on your dislike of a minority of the community (already been over that, remember?)

Other than using the service, null wasn't affiliated with Linkup. At all. Comprende?

So why was it even brought up in the first place?

Some fat neckbeard-wielding troll playing primarily to rank in a ladder might find Clanwars useful.

Your lack of knowledge of clanning is matched only by your disrespect of the community in general. There are plenty of reasons why people used Clanwars.cc, and obsession with rank was the case in remarkably few of them.

Again, I would not expect you to know that, any more than I would expect null to.

An average player would probably find the stability/speed/decentralized nature of Linkup desireable.

Hey, there's talk and there's action, isn't there...

The ONLY people that had ANY affiliation with Linkup were myself and pvtschlag. I thought that was made pretty clear. Wow.

No, judging by this thread as a whole, it was not clear at all. We were all puzzled by null's rantings about how much good he's done for the community. I couldn't think of a single good thing, and quite a few bad things, so I asked what the good things were (I wasn't the only one). Havocide posted all this, null affirmed it.

So you're saying that null's claim to community greatness was even shakier than everyone originally thought? Up until this point, here's the deal: he makes immense claims for himself, but when his facts are checked there are plenty of bad things he's done, and the only good thing he could show for himself was working on a project which didn't end up getting finished, although the reason for that was the coders' own choice.

Now you're saying he can't even make THAT feeble claim? Well, thanks for clearing it up for me.

Linkup = positive

Shitwars.cc = negative

If Linkup was implemented, there would be no reason for your third party clan reporting shit. It would've worked through Renegade like planned...

You utter lack of respect for the community is not really surprising.

In the last few years, CW have been the only ones who gave enough of a shit about this community to give them a clan ladder (something which is necessary for the game). Nobody else has. And you call that negative? You're a fucking disgrace.

What's more, it was often more popular, more successful than the original WOL clan ladder, never mind this linkup bullshit which was never released in the first place. Even if it was, what on earth makes you think anyone would play there? I'd lay odds they'd have stayed at Clanwars.

Take a look at what an absurd claim you're making. "OK, all they did was talk and never actually came up with the goods, but even if they did it probably would've been better than your ladder! That ridiculous guess makes your contribution negative and linkup's positive, even though yours has the merit of actually existing and linkup doesn't."

blimey... I think you've taken lessons from the null school of non-logic.

For the record, Spoony did NOT "get his way" when he complained to Apoc about me.

Indeed, because I didn't ask for anything in the first place. I didn't even ask to be unbanned.

You would at least, I think, acknowledge that my complain was legitimate and there was nothing inherently wrong with making it in the first place? I certainly tried to resolve it with you first.
