AO: We are back from the dead... again! After an 18 day outage, we are finally alive and well. Who knew how complicated updating software/databases from 2008 would be. I still have alot of tweaks to make, but my main goal was getting everything patched and updated to 2026.
Vbulletin 6 has changed alot since 2008 so we will have a ton of new features to dig into.
Oh please ... do we have to resort to 5 year old whining?

You claimed you sent 1500 out of 2000 emails one contest, while every other person had their emails bouncing.
I am glad to see these cheaters winning- makes me not want to come back to any more "AGD Parties"
He won, you didn't. Get over it. I know you're going to reply and say "I'm not worried about who won, it's the fact that he cheated!" Well guess what, Tom Kaye never said that he couldn't hit the back button and hit send over and over. No matter how much you whine and complain an E-mag is not going to appear in your hands. I know you wanted the E-mag, we all did, but there can be only one and Brian just happened to be that person, so deal with it.
The only difference between martyrdom and suicide is press coverage.

I am glad good quality folk are coming here now, like yourself.
Did I ever ask for them to give me the Emag? No-
Did he do some sort of "cheat"? Yes-
Do I believe someone who cheats should win? No-
Do I believe you should be quite since you have been here for 1 month and don't even know me? Yes-
Has this EVER happend before, i.e. the complaing? No- but you wouldn't know considering you have been here for 1 month.
It was not supposed to be a big "burn" but it does annoy me how someone who registered in April of THIS year is telling me to "Shut up and stop complaining" considering I have been a member since December 20th- of 2000.
I was VERY happy when XSpy won his Emag- An AO regular winning a contest fair and square, but when someone who signed up a month ago with 40 posts walks away with $1500 in gear by using an exploit, it gets me angry.
I dont think the party was that great that is why i left. And i do agree with shartley. and i dont think there is a way to prevent cheating in contests like that, something AGD should have thought of before hand. Also one thing AGD should have thought of was if some one could win more than once, that is a different topic, but again congrats to you brian, and all the people who won.

"Opinions are like buttholes, everyone has one. And they're all different."
We are going to look into the accusations of cheating. We do have a complete record of last nights events. If we find that people were sending emails beyond the rate of human capability we will deal with it then.
