 Jago, You Have Not Even Tried It :]

Jago, you have not even tried STM (not that you have to). However for someone that has a lot to say, you have no experience with the product.
The fact that you 'can' set up a DCC chat in IRC means it is not the default setting. Besides that, who is to say that your ISP or any ISP between you and the person you are chatting with, is not mointoring your so-called direct coonection? Do you really think DCC is secure?
With STM, its secure from the start with nothing for the user to worry about other than adding contacts.
Anyway, enough chat Jago, either user it or don't, I really don't care. Feedback however is more than welcome :]

I got myself an account to see what all the fuss is about right before I retracted my comment about encryption.

I was just formulating a sarcastic comment along the lines of "my days of getting a boner for custom computer cases are over", and then I skipped to page 17 and thought, "hmmm, damn, okay... I'm impressed". :)
 It Begins.

I got myself an account to see what all the fuss is about right before I retracted my comment about encryption. Speaking of security and such, why should I be trusting YOU and whoever runs the site to not log every message sent/received and read them?
 Jago, You Are Almost Right
#6445 posted by Tigger-oN on 2004/12/15 22:44:03
Jago, you are almost right, however the data is encoded in mysql to prevent me (or anyone else) from reading your message. I could write something to make it possible to read stuff, however, the fact that I have encoded the message storage, to prevent myself of accidently reading a message, I don't see the point.
The messages are linked to an STM id, not a name. This means I would first have to work out whos belongs to which id before I could start to read 'your' messages.
I run the server, and the ISP does NOT have a password or access to it other than the box it self. This means the ISP could get the hard drive and mount it on another FreeBSD server, but can you see this happening over a few messsages sent by mappers?
The messages are sent over SSL, so there is no (known) way to read them from a 'man in the middle' attack.
But yes, you are right, why should you be trusting me? You can't!
If you want to move this discussion off-line, thats cool with me (I'll not continue here) - here is my STM id:
9149928a3cd5765a9aaafcb47f59f489:stm.lvlworld.com
Maybe we can come up a grand soultion to the age old problem of 'How can I trust you'.

why are you surprised? because it looks worse or sameish? It was designed to be an xbox game from the begining , was out before d3 and had a much shorter development cycle... anyway I think the good reviews have something to do with that the game is actually good although it might be a bit short and without any mp it might not last long unless people start making custom maps for it.
 Friendly Lot Around Here, Eh?
