g'day
hey its my 8th day of rune-ing online and i really wanted to just put somthing down...yaaay

and seeing how i've spent >90% of my time on low cal...i just had to put it here...lol

anyway...who is unter? where is this mysterious almighty?
when did most people 'discover' low cal?
anybody know any other australians playing rune?

i've met perhaps 5-6 members now and been impressed by the instant camaraderie i feel...
so thanks for the good times so far and hope to see more... Big Grin

oh, i was going to use 'rune 2' as the title but thought i might be bashed up with a big bat... Wink

not "camaraderie" ...
they just have no real friends to tell their pitty bs to.


p.s. run while you can.


mkk?

Pay no attention to Shady, he's just some lamer who felt he might get more attention by coming to the board.

Unter's a nice guy. I used to see him on all the time about a year ago before I quit. Good fighter.

As for discovering this place, the server's been around for an extremely long time. As I said, I used to play here about a year ago, and this server was pretty much the only one I would join. Had to quit after a bit though, because of the wave of idiots that would come onto the server.

When I reinstalled Rune a few weeks ago, I was glad to see the server was still going strong and had some new upgrades.

its not your ip in general but a section of ip's

for instance anything that starts with 60.*.*.* is banned and if your ip starts with 60.27.123.24 your screwed from that server.

etc. with any other ip banning

ok boys calm down. I can make a cd for the both of ya's. email me details on how you would like it sent. ask me for email addy next time i see you on the server. And yes it is worth it defiantly. More textures and more fixes really to the game. Plus you then can play HOV required servers.

Vid Cards:
Brand Names:
Asus
Powercolor
MSI
Gigabyte
ATI

Before thinkin that find out what kind of motherboard you are using. Most of the new cards are 8x AGP (aka AGP Pro slot cards) in other words you need a new board to handle the awesome strength. If just upgrading into a not so new card make sure you can handle 4 x AGP because that would be the card types you will still see cheap in electronic stores.

If you know your board. Go onto a few of the brand name forums and find out what works best with that card.

Just thought of something for you DanteER. If you are running Winblows XP there are some tweaks you may want to do to increase your speed and to bring your ping down.

Found here is a detailed description of somethings you can tweak on XP to improve system performance and game play.

Winblows XP Tweaks/System Service Configurations

Hope that gives you a hand in providing a better system.

Manowar you should take a gander at these to unless you have already done so.

you asked about vegemite, and as an unofficial cultural ambassador....i have to say:

it blows, (badly)

its different for everone but i myself think its gelatinated soy sauce...looks that what the mechanic would get out of some filthy..whatever...but its is so rich in vitamin b your balls would drop off...you can only tolerate it while your 5-10 years old...much like when parents tell you at that age to never cuss and eat all your vegies and dont hit your baby sister...

but, by all means, please experiment Wink...you only live once lol...and no its is not vegetables + termites...lol

Ummm yeah DanteER you may want SP1 installed and all the updates after that.

I suggest finding the network version of SP1 which is a file you get off the net. This in turn is a much faster way to upgrade the microsoft update takes forever. After you have that installed you will have to use the windowsupdate site to get everything else.

Windows XP SP1 download 134MB Eek
