Found a forum I'd never heard of before · [Link removed by Shade] · but the title's a lil' wonky.

UT cheats?!?

Looks like the official UT forum · https://www.epicgames.com/unrealtournament/forums/ · has got a spammer. Named "Loque" of all things, don't know if he's a spambot so much as a spammer. Seems more a self-promotion thing, lots of posts that're virtually identical.

Dunno if you can see this if you're not a member · https://www.epicgames.com/unrealtournam ... id=1928611

The forum http://qut99.com/QSOL/ has interesting links on top of it, which I explore as for the most part the only active posting member of that forum is the guy who runs it and I'm often bored.
· One is for http://forums.blackcatgames.com/ which has a UT section for Thievery (gametype I've heard of but never played) and it seems semi-active.
· Also this · http://qut99.com/quu/?tabid=30 · but I'm not sure what that is.
· This · http://qut99.com/statspage/?tabid=34 · which is kinda cool.
· And this · http://qut99.com/BTRecords/?tabid=35

Really need to poke around that stuff more often.

UU was a great idea, unfortunately most server admins at the time were not into the concept... too bad, as this was a game preserver IMO. Thievery was not unlike a lot of modern "sneak" games (Assassin's Creed for one).
I'm surprised TO is still active and not Thievery, the game was pretty kickass back in the day, no disrespect to TO but this was a different concept altogether.

It's like a Web integrated (almost like web admin but more different things) friend system, chat system, who online/offline, etc. with the other codes connected to the server-side of mod that allow you to talk to someone from in game of UT and to the web, vice versa... and some other functionality it can provide. I was there, as a member but end up not being active enough to keep in it.

In other news...

The forum http://sonsofwarclanforce.freeforums.org/portal.php is still there. for those not in the know, the guy who runs that forum has been encouraging EVERYONE to stop logging into it so it will go away. He's working under the impression that after 6 months of no activity it will delete itself.

Either someone keeps logging into it or he's wrong.

Also, KillerBee's forum http://www.online-multigaming.com/news.php?page_id=81 appears to be gone. Whether this is a fluke or permanent, I can't say.

My own "forum" is the only remaining livejournal community for Unreal/UT, and as LJ is fairly dead these days I'm the only remaining posting member. Yeah, I'm the admin of the thing (set it up myself) but it's mostly just me.

Since I've been a actively been posting in so many other forums over the years, my best way to keep up on questions posted to many is make a linked post...

...like this · http://unreal-games.livejournal.com/109297.html

So I can keep track of where it was all posted, and can check for updates without actually logging in... unless I need to respond to something.

First off: The http://sonsofwarclanforce.freeforums.org/portal.php forum is finally gone.

Secondly: Of the forums I regularly hit up, it's Gauntlet Warriors that's usually the most dead...ish. In that most of the forum is entirely dark except for 1 thread.

The "Last Post Standing" thread... and yes, ut99.org has one of these too.

(I won!)

I noticed that this past month that the entire forum went dead, so I took a shot at finally winning that thread...

...but apparently I slightly sparked it back to life · http://gauntletwarriors.com/Forums/view ... tart=11520

Just realized only members can see posts on that forum... my bad.
