I was doing a search for something else when I accidentally did an image search on this forum.

Results were interesting · http://tinyurl.com/jbcnlmh

Saw whole threads I forgot about, some stuff from before I joined this forum, skinning projects abandoned, and weapons packs I intended to try but never got around to.

What is it with people using URL shorteners without any need? This isn't Twitter, you can copy/paste almost as much text as you want. And even if it was Twitter, you'd get auto-shortening with the advantage of being able to see the original link.

URL shortening = more solutions looking for problems.

Not to derail a thread without a rail.

I didn't see any derail, is a "G00gle search" info posted and looks serious. Or you will find it serious when your data will be wiped and then will be our turn to .
Except SMS usage, short URLs for PC users doesn't really help - perhaps excepting long lines on sight. A link having 2000 chars or 8 chars do uses the same click-type on it for opening.

I don't like URL-shortener ...because you can't see where the address of the link is.
That's how goatze worked!!!

To all young ones ...I won't explain what goatze is.

If this were Doomworld, you would be free to explain any crap. They are extremely liberal, unserious, and sometimes I feel they should have the organization level of ZDoom forums.

But that's a topic for another topic. Let's stick to searching UT99 in Google for now

(what has became of this thread a URL shortener discussion )

Honestly, you don't want to know. In this case just trust people who are older than the internet.

ahem - what is goatze? Maybe I'm too old to know that...^^

[papercoffee]

Gosh darn it! I should have mentioned Rick-Roll instead.

While I do appreciate that... I didn't know how to do that, myself; there's been previous time I did a full link from Google (which is SCARY long) where it didn't work.

Aforementioned shortener works, and if it ain't broke ya don't fix it.

*ahem*

Anywho, from said search I saw a few interesting pics in the image results and today I'll be installing the Ballistic Weapons mutator to my setup.

Spoke too soon... Ballistic Weapons mutator is for ut2004.

Grrr.

[Dr.Flay]

I skimmed so fast I didn't notice your last post.
It surprises me that you haven't tried the Ballistics mod yet.
Don't forget the extra updates and addons for more kit.

I use Species Statistics Plus mod and allocate each race a favoured set of weapons so there is always a few in play, no matter what mod or mode.
