VB6 question

[Tontow]

go to the store and shell out 10$ for starcraft + starcraft:broodwar
and diablo 2 + the xpac is about 20$, or u could alwasy look for them off of kaza but be carful u dont get a virus.

[hismajesty]

This battle.net thing sounds fun; however, I'm scared if I was able to get on it somehow,  those 56k ladder h4x0rs will leet trojan me during a game of broodcraft.

[Dark-Feanor]

It is elot ezier to just make a prograym for starcraft:broodwar that will cownnect to the free service battle.net using a non intrenet based programmyng lenguage. Why does your brackyt genaratar need to be in a web based programmyng langege? You can just store it locally and possybally upload the brackeet using FTP upload. It could work like any regalar VB clynt!

Thats what i want to know, and when did VB6 become a web based programming language? VBScript is web base but not VB6  and storing it locally and useing ftp will be one method that my plugin will have avalible but the web page it spits out is acsi drawn crap

[Crypticflare]

I'm so sorry it had to come to this.

[hismajesty]

Communist Lies! But i still want 2 kno y u paly broodcraft wit all teh h4x0rs.

but wat if day dcide 2 hak!

[Tontow]

i go to a channel called " clan pros " its not a clan, just a nutral gameing channal, like publick channals but without the spam and hackers, go to www.killerpro.com for more, and if u hack u are baned no questions asked, if ur an ass ur banned, etc.  its mostly SC/BW players but there are some WC3 and D2 players, and iv yet to run into a hacker on WC3, probabbly because its farly new - came out last year (2003)

if u like free gameing then try 'Game Spy' or www.msn.zone.com (www.zone.com) for any microsoft game and some others, if u look for them u will find them, and reading the box dosent heart eather

Can I be the one to point out that what you want to do to BattleReports is just as much hacking as what people are doing to Starcraft?  You want to alter the user experience of the interface to BattleReports, using the information which it sends you, and which you send to the site.  Game hackers do the same thing.  The difference here is you convince yourself that you aren't hacking, and can explain it away.

[Dark-Feanor]

OMG their is a netral gameing channal on battle.com? Sweat! How do I go they're!? But whut if the peple hax me? Then I am scriwed.

i was mearly useing battlereports as an example sence www.pgtour.net isnt released to the public yet and wont be till the 10th - PGTour (Pros Gameing Tour) will be vary simimlar to http://www.wgtour.com/ and will have php bots to manage the latters(ask about pgtour on the www.killerpro.com forums)
also note that Im one the the admins for pgt and have accesses to the server and the owner of that server (Your-Killer) is helping me with the plugin and is fully awaire and has aproved of what im trying to do

I classify hacking as:
useing a 3ed party program to cheet or alter game play - this is what the hackers on starcraft do
accesseing a system WITHOUT permition and then screwing the system up by virus/trogening/crashing/ect - its impossable to do this over battlenet, thay would have to accesses ur computer directly but only .00000000000001% know how

and from dictionary.com:
Informal.
To write or refine computer programs skillfully.
To use one's skill in computer programming to gain illegal or unauthorized access to a file or network: hacked into the company's intranet

I never intended to use battlereports for my plugin as i dont have permishions on there server, I was mearly useing them/it as an example sence www.pgtour.net has a similar system and pgtour.net wont be released to the public utill the 10th and is the reason i started this project so as to make it ALOT easyer on us pgtour admins

do some research befor you call someone a hacker, i do and it saves me one hell of a headack

its called battlenet and u need one of blizzards games all of wich have a mutiplayer option for battlenet, from there its as symple as typing " /join clan pros "
and its impossable to use battlenet to hack ur computer, thay just use programs to explote holes in the game, an example with be the anoying stack hack: it lets them build 2 buildigns in the exact same place
if someone hackes vs me i just exit the game, save the replay and send it in to blizzard and that hacker can say goodbuy to his cdkey forever

Yes, we'd never want to call you someone who writes or refines computer programs skillfully, would we?
