Acmlmboard 1.x isn't the best thing to educate yourself with, though. The code is unreadable, full of bad coding practices (like relying on register_globals or not sanitizing user input properly-- the thing is full of holes), and made for PHP4.

The database structure is good, however, besides the fact it uses Latin1 instead of UTF8.

It would be nice to see it restored, though, just for nostalgia. But there's a lot of work.

The version available is old compared to the current Jul codebase. Also, it lacks Xkeeper's secret firewall (lib/firewall.php) which is responsible for all the security. Without it, the board is almost as vulnerable as original AB1.92.

My last dream involved me venturing in some building for unknown reasons. It's unclear what the building was, but it seems it was about some company.

The building was very large, so much that parts of it were abandoned and squatted by weird, drug-using people.

I'm venturing in such an abandoned part. There's a door that leads to a dark, unwelcoming place where supposedly weird people are hiding. I'm trying to close the door, unsuccessfully. Then some crazy girls start going after me. I climb a stair and enter an elevator.

The building has many stories, apparently. Lots of buttons, arranged in a weird way. The bottom-most floor is numbered 0, despite the fact it supposedly is far deep underground.

I decide to go to floor 0. Not a wise decision, since I don't know what awaits me there, but uh, I kinda want to escape those crazy girls. It turns out that floor 0 isn't that bad. It looks like some office interior. I venture in, run across a desk with a woman behind it. Said person starts wondering what I'm doing here and bothering me, so I go back to the elevator.

I go to the topmost floor. The room is like a large and very high living room. It's dark in here, but it feels welcoming and comfortable. It's apparently decorated for Christmas.

I somehow end up climbing a ladder in said room. Not far away, there's Willy Wonka climbing another similar ladder. I somehow move to his ladder. Then he throws coins in the room. Supposedly the coins were meant to turn into chocolate or candy or some other funky magic as they reached the floor.

This dream was an AoE2 game. First, I had a pier in some river that separated my land from the enemy's. Another enemy was attacking that enemy.

The enemy had defence towers, so I made attack boats and ordered them to destroy the towers. They behaved weirdly but eventually did it.

Then I had to make an army, but couldn't train much soldiers. I was lacking some resource called 'Frisit'. In the top bar, there were only the typical resources, wood, food, gold and stone. So how was I supposed to obtain that Frisit?

In the town, I only had 3 farms, and no defence or army was in there. Turkish samurais were coming out of nowhere and setting farms on fire and killing villagers. Their animations, as well as their fire, were sloppy. Apparently those were some natural hazard and not sent by an enemy.

And, as if I weren't in deep enough shit, a third enemy comes to attack me with seemingly numberous armies.

My first desktop computer was a Dell model that was provided with Windows XP MCE. Eventually, Vista came out, and Dell shipped an upgrade. Except that thing wouldn't install because the BIOS was misconfigured.

After spending much time wondering what was wrong, and eventually fixing the issue, I got Vista working, and it turned out to be shit. Why the hell can't I copy shit in C:\? I can do it fine in XP. And others...

For a while, I had a XP/Vista dual boot, and mostly used XP.

Let's also not forget the compatibility problems Vista caused with many programs. The ones Vista claimed to have potential compatibility issues, would either run fine, or crash when starting.


As of today, I don't use Windows XP aside from the univ's computers (which I tend to not use much because I usually have my laptop). My OS of choice is Windows 7.

Then help us cleaning it up instead of bitching about it.

If you aren't willing to help, then kindly shut up.

You're doing it on your own install, and of course, you aren't going to share. It's easier to just bitch about it.

Please stop being a waste of space already.

No matter how you said it, what you meant was basically "your code sucks, I'm fixing it for my own version but it's only for me, fuck off". So shove it up your ass.

Continue being a smartass and you'll meet the same fate on the board as you did on the IRC.
