    Slightly unrelated: But modern Plasma and OLED television sets do suffer from burn in after long periods of static images, due to the almost volatile nature of them.

    OP: Since you're using an iMac, I doubt there is a way to turn off the screen since you weren't able to find a way to turn off the display. My advice is to just turn down the brightness as far as it will go.

    posted a message on Boycott Nintendo!!!!

    As sunperp has stated, this action was commenced by the Pokémon Company, owned by Gamefreak, Nintendo and Creatures. Not Nintendo.


    The Pixelmon team knew full well the risks they would be in as soon as they started the project. Nintendo and Pokémon Co. are known for actively seeking out and claiming copyright infringement on other projects before.


    As a reputable company, they either have to go full in or none at all. There is no exceptions, exclusions or deals they could make since they have already taking action before on other things. What if they gave Pixelmon a blind eye or a special deal, what would the Pokémon Uranium team and fans feel about that? Or the Metroid fangame community? Potentially a worse PR disaster then this one.


    Also, your boycott probably won't do anything, and in my opinion, most of the dedicated Pixelmon fans will still buy USM because they are Pokémon fans at heart.

    posted a message on Possible Minecraft Related Scam
    Quote from zbest567»

    So I'm not exactly into minecraft anymore. But I still have my account, And I'm making this post because I got a couple of worrying emails this morning regarding my account. I did a bit of googling and couldn't find anything related to it.

    The first email was from mojang informing me of a request to change my security questions. I haven't logged into my account in about a year so that wasn't me. The next was an email was this:


    Hello your minecraft you sell ?

    Because i buy your minecraft and i want

    change your minecraft password

    but i cant get in your Google mail

    so i cant change your mojang password

    you can change you gmail password ?


    it came from a [email protected] address and the name attatched to it was "5 D" clearly not a legitimate email.


    I never intended to sell my minecraft account. As odd as it sounds I actually still play from time to time and I'm not letting it go. I'm not exactly sure what is going on here, but its either a scam to get into your minecraft account or to get into your email, and therefore your personal data through your minecraft account. First thing I did this morning was change my password to something longer and more complex. Has anyone here experienced the same thing? If so, put it below. If not be on the lookout.


    It's either some victim who "bought" your account details, aka your email and a wrong password, and they have bad grammar.

    or

    It's a legit scammer trying to try and imitate the above to make you feel bad and give your details.

    Nice find anyways, I haven't seen that before.

    posted a message on How powerful does my computer have to be to run a simple server?
    Quote from Hoogady»

    Singleplayer runs fine and so do LAN worlds. One more question, what resources (URLs, programs etc.) does the server access/use?

    The server program is a standalone Java program and requires Java to be installed. But you already have that since you play Minecraft on that computer.

    If your friend is in another network or house, you'll need to portforward. This can vary by router to router, but it's easy and someone here can help you with that.

    Other then that, the server doesn't demand much else.

    If your PC runs singleplayer well and not too stuttery, you should have no problem running the server as well I guess.

    Apparently, the AA wasn't going to meddle around in that situation, and so-forth instead keeping themselves in a cautious state.


    As the mothmen were at the embassy, the diplomat told them to wait for a moment before they're finishing their errands.






    "I don't know if holograms are a good substitutes for creating a facade, as from my view will only made them even more suspicious under constant surveillance because they'll identified as ghost ships for them once discovered.

    Also note that we are already aware of AA's intentions and other future plans of this world, all documented at my own person suitcase copied from Alfieq's Army 'History of Archives'. However, one you must know that my own people's actual missions weren't deliberately going to ruffle with the AA, in which already know that such attempts will going to destroy yours and our economy by tenfold due to attrition, and thus you will not going to win against a nation controlling the most productive industrial capacities anytime soon.

    Aside from the AA, the reason why we are here for ..some.. agreements was because of Techlistaris Co. attempting to dissolute our national sovereignty through the power of cultural domination. We're in need of a service for cutting Techlistaris Co. in half to press ahead of our progress:

    1. Fabricate some evidences about the bad things on Techlistaris Co., and then sent to the officials of Alfieq's Army, so that we can take an advantages on diplomacy against the Techlistaris Co. during AA's declaration of emergency, a meeting at Proguan's central government.

    2. Disrupt their industries and business sectors, so that the Techlistaris Co. will not going to use the power of money against us.", said by the Ambassador


    "Hm. I wouldn't worry about our confidentially, we'll get an early warning from any encroaching vessels and tell them to shoo off. They cannot see inside the hologram and its emissions are being obscured."

    "We have General Saeki on-line. Pardon."

    The screen behind flashes on behind the captain, to reveal a lady of wise age. Her nickname of Grey Fox is not for nothing.

    "The Proguan Ambassador wants us to fabricate documents that make Techlistaris appear in a bad way and to give said documents to Alfieq's Army. They also wish for us to "disrupt" their industry and business sector." explains the Captain to Generak Saeki.

    "Mr. Ambassador, will there be any compensation for any OT actions or influences, and what do you mean by `disrupt`?" General Saeki questions.

    [Indeed. I will have some of those drones sent in right now.] a few minutes later a small aircraft is spotted approaching OT. They ask to land. Perks of having a hivemind strike again.

    The plane lands on the floating runway. Three men wait for the plane to arrive.

    One identifies himself as Envoy Sam. He explains that the two other people are bodyguards and assistants.

    AdvanceSide Dynamics (a private defense company) have nearly completed a design issued by the army.


    It is a micromachine. The size of a grain of rice. It features a small microphone and a weak transmitter. It works in tandem with a very huge receiver dish to be mounted on a satellite in geo-stationary orbit over the area of usage. It's transmissions should be encrypted to some degree but could possibly be hacked, but what's the point anyways. As for its concealability, it's got metal fragments that can be picked up on an xray if the viewer was observant. It also emits transmissions back to the receiver all the time. It can run on battery for about 1 week.

    "Waaait.. How did you know that we're the Proguans and not some random 'bypassers' coming into your place now wouldn't it? . . . Apart from that.. *coughing and clearing his throat*.. We're here for an interest about a certain things in mind, something to kneel one's progression off to keep everything in balance... Unfortunately for you, we're not going speak out any further while still within the large radius of puppet master's I.O.D radio triangulation system. We have to move further away from them to conceive my actual plans without any interference from our two local parties.", said by an Ambassador.





    "Who and what this inconceivable nation is, undefined nation?! Please, explain your nation's identity, and tell me one great reason that affects the glorious Militarist Army on why we should need to interfere on this conflict, or else I won't aid you anything!", questionable and tempered Officer #19.





    Sadly, all three protectors (AA, Proguans, and Techlistaris Co.) won't allow them to enter the Central Government of Proguans because of a long crisis they're needed to be addressed right now, and instead telling them to go to a foreign Proguan's embassy instead.





    The Proguans have no interests in allying with the Heretics like the Techlistaris Co. , hence they do not care and disapproving an alliance with them. Even they do ally with the heretics, the Alfieq's Army policies and regulations (as a puppet) will stomping their puppets from ever accepting anyone's alliance without permissions from AA's high command.

    For AA, it was rejected because they doesn't know who and what was the 'Ancient Army' is, and currently have a very low opinion of them, due in fact they doesn't give any reason(s) to be friendly with the AA.



    "We know a lot. That's what we do.

    I hope this reassures you, but this fleet has been undergoing zero stealth operations and should have been visible under AA radars for the past several months. We also participate in constant encrypted transmissions from the mainland very regularly so another one would not be out of the ordinary. Our encryption is unbreakable. If you wish we can visually block off your vessel with holograms."

    [Wow. Thank you. Fight as one force? We all will fight this threat together. Good to have another ally as interesting as yourself... I have sent a few of my mothmen to the nearby nation of Progua to be allies with. I'll send them a message.] all across the colonies Hannah owns, they begin preparing for war. They begin preparing for anything possible. Scientific endeavors, and other things are halted in favor of war endeavors.

    A radio message is sent to the AA puppet of Progua, telling them of this event, exactly what the King has asked of her and that efforts to ally should be done as soon as possible. A similar message is also sent to OT, and AA.


    Several departments of OT pay no heed to the antics and childplay of the fake clouds, therefore no significant actions is taken.

    "You could just seek at the embassy from one of those islands, if you're really here for diplomacy.", said by Proguan craftsman after pointing at one of two Proguan's islands.




    As two Proguan representatives were heading into an office of some sorts, taking a seat and readying their two suitcases along with it, the Ambassador greets the XO, waiting for further introduction and discussion before he stating his deal about to do with Techlistaris Co.


    The door opens once again, a sailor enters, carrying a chair. After he places it on the other side of the desk, to the right, he salutes and promptly leaves.

    Another person enters, this time it is quite visible that they are well decorated. The well-aged man sits on the chair that was brought in a few moments ago. He takes his time to get seated.

    "Greetings Proguans, I'm the Captain of this vessel and in charge of the fleet positioned here. In a brief moment we will have General Saeki on screen with us. But before then, Proguans what do you want to discuss with OceanTech?"

    Just after the cute little Midg leaves, Young Gun gets a message from the satellite, saying that the fire had no affect on the big bad cloud. Young Gun tells Bettsie he doesnt care about the cloud anymore!


    Young Gun gets on the horn with the Udder Committee, telling them what the little Midg said. The committee chew the cud on this for a while and decide to act on what the Midg said.


    The Udder Kind start establishing links to all the nation on the world using their Udder satellite for finding the nations and communication with them.
