2 players, 2 computers, 2 accounts, 1 IP

[Mattius]

My friend is over my house and he cannot connect to the server and gets us a temp IP ban when he tries to log in because I am already logged into the game, is there a way we could both play...?

You are looking for an IP Exemption. From my experience it can take up to a week for them to process. The server staff all have real jobs and volunteer their personal lives to make this fun for us.

[Midgeon]

Currently playing a shitty SK on red named Beal in the meantine -_-

Should edit out your account name. Use this subforum for requesting IP exemption:

http://www.project1999.org/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=25

Follow the rules in the link provided by emp82

[gotrocks]

Yeah, never put your account name out publicly like that.

Character names are fine, just not EMU accounts.

Like ele said though, you need to make a post in the sub forum, and you need to follow the directions to the letter in order to get your exemption.

This is to prevent people from 2-boxing. I kno it may seem like a hassle, but it greatly reduces the amount of people 2-boxing or more. And boxing like that can b really bad for the server.

All that being said, it would have been really easy for you to use the search function. That way, you wouldn't have even had to wait for a reponse, you would have had your answer right away!

Lastly, if you are just trying to get an exemption so that you can 2-box (ie, you arent actually playing with a friend, you just want to play 2 chars), you will get caught, lol.


Good luck, and be patient! these things usualy dont happen overnight, and the staff has been especially busy lately due to the DoS attacks.

Actually, I just used the search feature to look up "IP Exemption", and the only thing mildly relative was this exact thread. I got answers very fast as well, and comments about me two-boxing can be kept to yourself. I made a proper exemption thread, thank you all.

[Spitty]

Actually, bullshit.

"IP Exemption", those exact terms, brings up dozens of threads that covered this very topic before your post.

Gotrocks loaded you with valid information - you didn't need to throw him under the bus for taking the time to reply to your needless thread.

Good luck with your two-boxing, or whatever.

Right, because I would level two warriors consecutively... Do you want a christmas card containing a photo of us at our computers too or something? I didn't even know it was called an exemption, how the hell would I search for one. Lol.

[Nietche]

Fortunately, there are people who are more willing to type out the "correct answer" than to type out a response that basically says "idiot for not searching correctly." That's like telling the newb in game, "idiot for not googling," rather than giving the coords (which you handily know) for, say, the firepots in TD.

Let me spell this out for you.

Today, at 7:50am, you asked for what is commonly known here as an IP exemption. Clearly you didn't know what that was, nor how to properly request one.

Today, at 7:56am, emp82 informed you what an IP exemption is and how to properly request one.

Today, at 8:27am, Gotrocks detailed what an IP exemption is, how it's used and what it prevents.

Today, at 8:48am, you used the knowledge you gained at 7:56am from emp82, to tell Gotrocks to fuck off.

If this is how you usually treat people that answer your stupid questions, you're a verified asshole. Good luck with your two-boxing.

Matt was reacting to the implication that he was possibly asking for an IP exemption for the purposes of 2-boxing. Read next time. Troll RnF instead.

[Spitty]

You're reacting to the implication that I'm trolling.

I'm pointing out that people who ask questions and then textually bitchslap people who took time out of their fucking day to answer the question are complete assholes.

Good luck with your response to that.

Correct, but it destroys the immersion of the game to look up everything. It also destroys the concept of "community building" in a lot of ways.

Oh that statement wasnt just ment in EQ terms. I ment in life in general aslong as google is around you really dont need to ask questions. I have friends that call me up asking me stuff and my response to them is "Did you google it?" because most of the time i dont know the answer to the question myself and i just end up googling it for them. People just need to learn to cutout the middle man.

[Thulack]

Even if you dont know what your searching for say for instance in this example. Goto google and type "playing from same house on 2 computers project 1999". You get your answer :)

Where I come from, I don't slay the messenger who brings the whole book instead of cliff notes. Perhaps that's why I'm better educated, and you're here displaying your inability to use a search function.

I do find it fairly humorous that you weighed in on a thread on 7.27.13 stating all multi-boxers should be permanently IP banned. Shall we dig into why you were weighing in on that conversation when you apparently don't know how IP governing works on p99?

To be fair, I am spray-farting.

I think.

Also, to be honest, I pulled open this thread to answer the OP's question and was spray-farted directly in the face by how snide his reply to Gotrocks was. So, my forest of jimmies was hurricane-rustled into the last four pages of RnF-worthy spray-farting.

OP confirmed dick. Is red down or something? What brought all the assholes to blue server chat?

[jarlerop]

Here's my take on this thread.

- OP ask a question.
- Guy answers the question in good fasion, then ends his post buy saying something that easily could have been taken as an accusation of OP 2boxing.

Completely unnecessary, and i understand OP for being harsh.
If we can't ask questions then wtf is the point of this forum?
Sometimes you dont even know what to search for, specially if your a noob and english is not your first language.

[HawkMasterson1999]

Not giving someone a loc when you already have it is like telling someone on the street to find a clock and get the time for themselves. Don't be a dick, just answer his question.

This is, in fact, somewhat fishy. Not sure if anyone caught this post, but if its true (im far too lazy to check) this is highly suspect, as OP claimed to not know anything about ip exemptions.

Yeah, never put your account name out publicly like that.

Character names are fine, just not EMU accounts.

Like ele said though, you need to make a post in the sub forum, and you need to follow the directions to the letter in order to get your exemption.

This is to prevent people from 2-boxing. I kno it may seem like a hassle, but it greatly reduces the amount of people 2-boxing or more. And boxing like that can b really bad for the server.

All that being said, it would have been really easy for you to use the search function. That way, you wouldn't have even had to wait for a reponse, you would have had your answer right away!

Lastly, if you are just trying to get an exemption so that you can 2-box (ie, you arent actually playing with a friend, you just want to play 2 chars), you will get caught, lol.


Good luck, and be patient! these things usualy dont happen overnight, and the staff has been especially busy lately due to the DoS attacks.

I like to think my post was both informative, polite, and had every intention to protect YOU, the OP, from getting in trouble OR having your account messed with. And i agree with most of the people in this thread, you were rude to me in your reply. I suggested (nicely, might I add) that you use the search function before asking your question. We as a community have no problem answering questions for noobies, hell, myself and just a couple other people handle the majority of the tech questions asked in the tech discussion boards, so we are helping the community to play p99 literally all day long, every day. You'll find the people here are incredibly helpful, if you're willing to help yourself. Many, many, many people have asked how to go about getting an ip exemption, and the question has been answered over and over and over. If you'd like help, the least you can do is help yourself! Search is easy to use, fast, and it saves everyone time. Please use it in the future!

As far as 2boxing goes, I never accused you of 2boxing. You seem to not know much about how and why ip exemption work/are in place, so it seemed prudent to let you know that if you abuse it you will be banned. If you want to take offense to that, feel free, but it really just makes you look like an ass.

Thanks to everyone who had my back on this one, i do appreciate it, though in the future keep in mind that I am able to take care of myself in these situations, and in general its best to just leave these kinds of things alone. If someone wants to be arrogant/an asshole, thats their choice and usually they will quickly find out how far that gets them on this server (pretty far in some cases).

All that being said, lets drop this thread now that everything has been addressed and get back to playing p99. Good luck with your ip exemption, and please remember to be more polite next time (everyone!). I'll take your 'thanks all' to mean myself as well.

-rocks

[Mattius]

Thanks for that confirmation champ, also, I have nothing to hide, if I was attempting to 2box, I would be worried by your statements, but instead, I wasn't having it yesterday morning apparently.

[gotrocks]

again, i never accused you of 2boxing, but go ahead and just keep being sarcastic and negative to someone thoroughly answering your question.

You know, the one someone with your vast intelligence could have easily answered on his own by using the search button to search for a phrase you had no idea existed, yet posted about just a few days ago.

Thanks for that confirmation, champ. I'll remember to not help you in the future!

[Sgt1stClassPerkerwood]

OP is gay.

[Mattius]

When did I post it a few days ago? I didn't. Print screen this. I had no clue what an IP Exemption was.
