Prankster you missed this, please read the message again
Quote from: StepS on March 01, 2013, 09:42 PMah well, if you still dont get it: by an uneducated person I mean someone often trolling/bullying/flaming in internet, or having intentions to do so, showing no respect, misbehaving and writing badly and other things, i hope you can describe all of this with one word. sorry for confusion

those only come from torrent downloads, they would almost never come from a legal purchase. this is the point, nothing else.

for different reasons many educated people dont pay for games. a well educated person would know this  ;D
of course lol, and this is making the 2nd segment: illegal educated users which are quiet and don't shout on channels. they of course take the biggest portion but still a percent of uneducated people among torrenters is high, maybe moderate but not low at all.

i just can't understand what is wrong in the statement. i agree it's a bit exxagerated but think yourself, how many bad people are there from these illegal crap users? compare it with those who pay... you'll barely find a troll among those.

Quote from: Prankster on March 01, 2013, 01:12 PMWhat exactly is the question about 11 years old kids? I think the two things are even less connected among children/teenagers since they (mostly) don't even have their own money to buy stuff. Now how does langauge come here? I only mentioned torrent usage.
Anyway, I didn't want to get into a flame war here, but yes, I'm quite sure about that. Maybe it's different in Russia.
lol man, its simple. only an educated person would buy the game, and an uneducated person would just download it, he would never buy something he can download, i don't see anything being complex in this sentence. yes, again, i didn't say that all of such users are like that (would be stupid if I did lol). but still there are, and the main point is that if you compare the percent of uneducated population from both legal and illegal spheres, it'll differ A LOT in the 2nd, to more than 95% compared to first. I doubt that, for example, taner and Godmax actually bought their games. if they did, they would most likely be educated then as they would have enough clue what buying a game is, what earning money is, what living a life is, what is good and bad, and this stuff. uneducated persons don't buy games. sorry but i cant explain it further, i thought it was pretty simple and obvious

ah well, if you still dont get it: by an uneducated person I mean someone often trolling/bullying/flaming in internet, or having intentions to do so, showing no respect, misbehaving and writing badly and other things, i hope you can describe all of this with one word. sorry for confusion

I doubt torrent usage is connected with education.
are you sure? what about 11 year old kids? well I of course didn't say that "all" of them are badly educated, yet you often get to see flaming on #AG.

HHC i hope it will happen when 3.7.2.0 comes out (in a few weeks), because there are plans to do a synchronized release which would mean heavily prodding Team17 as well

another impact of the torrents is the quality of the humans. I often see harsh and insults in Russian (and other languages of course) on the channels, this all comes from their education and explains why they torrented the game.
however when W:A released on Steam, a quick upsurge of polite players has begun. I noticed that most if not all of Steam users respect others, ask for help gently and other sort of things.
not too hard to conclude all this stuff

Quote from: barman on March 01, 2013, 11:39 AMInterestingly, Russia and Brazil are trailing behind, with only one per 500-550 thousand citizens of these countries being registered on TUS.
in fact it's pretty clear why so few are registered on TUS. TUS is not a prerequisite to enter WormNET, nor is it promoted on the official server, or sort of things. 90% of Russians are noobs from torrents with most of them either never learning, stagnating in the same skill level, or stopping to play quickly, but only those to stay long enough and with the desire to play competitively go for TUS.

Quote from: Crazy on March 01, 2013, 11:13 AMespecially Russia.
in Russia, only Steam users would pay for W:A (not counting 0.0001% of "heroes" which would actually go for an overseas CD). there are lots of torrents, their quantity competes with Brazil (2nd most popular nation on WormNET), they're so many that you see the result.

but I'd tell you, most of Russians never played W:A before because a publisher, Russobit-M released both W:A and WWP at the same time in 2002! which is why they are all for WWP at start, and there are still lots of them. this is the impact of how international things came to us in the past: a perfect example is a NES console clone "Dendy", which was the only one and the most popular one available in the previous century here due to specific treatment to electronics, and 90% of people today still think Dendy was an actual console (without copying anything) and don't know about real NES at all

which is why having W:A on Steam is actually important

Current text statistic is here: http://stats.worms2d.info/countries.txt
Russia was around 40% before small percents of people from multiple different small countries started to come up. the stats are more "scattered" now

Wormkit Modules / Re: wkPackets Error
February 28, 2013, 07:12 PM
Problem resolved. On Berria's PC, the wkPackets.dll only succeeds when loaded with WormKitDS (my installer auto deletes it because it's obsolete). anything else fails, this issue is new and will be probably investigated in future.
in case you're still wondering, it's not related to rubberworm

Updated. 0.4.8.0.

  • Added QuickInfo: shows some quick information (topmost/pinned states, game resolution) when the Border is enabled. This is enabled by default.
  • Added StaticWindowClass: the W:A's window class (of the graphical window) no longer changes everytime on startup. This improves compatibility with software such as OpenBroadcaster. This is enabled by default.
  • Some fixes.
