But it's the same thing I told another person who was saying Missionary sucks & blah blah blah, it's better to do something proactive about the rampant cheating than nothing at all. I mean really all of us complain about the cheating, than a program comes out that takes care of that problem; & then we complain about the program, is it perfect...no. However it's better than nothing. --------------------

I have had problems & understand the frustrations, so far it looks like Bart is working very hard to make improvements & fix bugs as they pop up so we need to be patient (yesterday 2 updates were released). Its even more frustrating jumping onto the server when I find time away from my infant son to find a server being ruined by 13 year old n00b hackers. -------------------- Win XP Pro Epox 8RDA+ OC'ed @ 2.3GHZ 512 DDR 3200, ATI 9800 PRO 128

He tell himself to hell with this program if its not going to work and screw up my machine I may want to go somewhere else.Maybe we should have a few different versions to download just if that happens. --------------------

Although I really did need to put the game away and focus on school, this whole Missionary business contributed to my break. I've been awol for over a month now but as I frequent the boards I notice almost everyday people are still having problems. Real yes the pros do outweigh the cons once you're into the game for most regulars. But as LOM pointed out, we lose support for Missionary every time someone new, wether a noob or not, tries using the program and fails. And this isn't skin deep either. We don't just lose the people from the server to make it worthwhile for MOB to shell out money for its operation. Bad publicity about the program seeps out. Last weekend I played some games at a friends house on some bs server. Not a single person over the course of two hours had even heard of the program albeit one player who had heard it sucked. I told him it was in the best interest of the mohaa community to support and he blew me off. Just some food for thought...fuck cheaters. --------------------

The lag sure did stop for me somewhat than the previous updtate. I ran the game the other day without Missionary and it seemed to play the same. Whatever Bart did, its far better that previous versions. Zillah -------------------- Zillah . .. ...

Although it's true some people still have a problem with missionary. I've received 2 emails for every post on here about missionary problems. From the emails, I can tell you the number one reason people have problems is they don't take 30 seconds and read the missionary help file. The majority of people who ran into problems, did so because they didn't exclude missionary from their anti-virus.
The second most common complaint is lag. I'm the 1st person to agree there have been some lag issues with missionary, 3 of the recent versions made the game unplayable for me. Since I'm the one running the server, I have a different perspective when it comes to someone complaining about lag. Think about it this way, before missionary how many people every day would say they were laggy? I still see people on the the server everyday without missionary saying the server is laggy. Only two things can cause lag server side, CPU choke or a network problem at the box. If it was either one of these problems, the lag would effect everyone and not just a single player. 99% of the time it's a problem along their network route to the server. From my experience, any lag related to missionary is VERY noticeable because unlike network lag it stays constant. I would be willing to bet half of the people who complain about missionary being laggy are the same ones who complained about lag without it. I've no doubt when some people experience random lag they jump to the conclusion missionary is cause. When the truth is they experienced random lag long before missionary was around.

Whenever I pick the game back up I'll support it without a doubt. BTW my ping was always great before Missionary and was never exceptionally bad, as it seems it can be of late, when I was running Missionary. Trudge on guys. --------------------

If you're getting stuck at 4.1, you will need to contack Blackbart before you can use missioanry. You can email him at Blackbart@Invisiblewarriors.com Let him know you are locked out of missioanry and he'll tell you what to do. -------------------- Not a word was spoken to contradict or disagree with S@bot when he called me a.... bully, dictator, snide, hypocrite, arrogant, smartass and lets not forget, according to him the way I act is reprehensible.
