When I pasted that IP address in the ctrl-v thread you recognised that it is a quakeworld server. My question is this: do you play quakeworld?
If any other rude members have somehow "accidentally" made their way into this private thread then I guess you can tell me if you play quakeworld as well. I am willing to bet that I am the best quakeworld player on xltronic!

In case you missed it the first time, horsefactory, my good friend, what are your thoughts on this:

A harrowing image that brings an overwhelming sense of empathy to my heart. I have had many friends in this situation. If you are unaware of what is going on in this picture allow me to explain:
The horse is a slave to the evil ceremony known as "Spin the horse". This practice, although abolished in most civilised countries, still takes place in less intelligent/developed countries such as France, Scotland, and Russia.
The ceremony itself works as follows: a ripe horse is picked from one of the many horse-trees in the area by the "Captain", and is placed on a stationary platform. The Captain then gathers as many people as he can to shout insults at the horse. These insults can range from mild terms such as "Idiot horse" to the deeply offensive "Gay idiot horse". By this time the horse is incredibly riled up and attempts to make its way off the platform to attack his scathing enemies. However, when this happens, the Captain pulls a lever and the platform begins to spin.
A camera is affixed to the platform in a way such that the horse's head is visible on screen at all times (as demonstrated in DJ Xammax' picture.) Most platforms are known to reach speeds of up to 5,000 RPM, however in Scotland there are rumours of a 10,000 RPM platform. The platform keeps spinning until the horse becomes permanently dizzy, it is then turned off and the horse is left to wander around in an eternal state of delusion; he becomes a complete laughing stock.
You can stop this torture by sending just £900 a month to DJ Xammax, myself, or my good business partner virginpusher. Please help.

I have to be honest and say that it was merely a bizarre conincidence as I have never played Quakeworld in my life. Needless to say though, if I was to play it. I would be a G.I Ginger on it.
BAM!
sorry to have got your hopes up about this.

Not really as the community is virtually non-existant these days and it's only a "hard core" that is left, so if you were to start playing it would be really hard to enjoy it as everyone that is left is really really good. It's also a bit of a twat to set up properly with all these 3rd party clients being made and stuff.
