Yes that's right, but it's not mine. My brother just got a new computer for his birthday....
......but it's.........
:(
......it's.......
It's an intel! Auuuuughgghhghghghhh!!!!!!!:cry
That ruins the whole AMD thing we got goin on.
Oh well..... hes got a Celeron, and a TNT2, but no monitor! That means he will have to use my crappy old one....but wait.....that means his framerate will go up..... at 640x480.....hmmmm..... he might just match my extra-leet UT skills. (heh.... i host the game so I get no lag....) Maybe he will play Tribes 2, if he can grab a CD key somehow (by legal or other means.... he's a big fan of keygens.... i wonder how long it will talke him to figure it out...). He will definitely play Diablo 2, now that I gots a copy form Justin. Oh well.... the world will turn....
:hmm Jeff

Being that a key is required to create an account and most people create their accounts the moment they get the game, I don't think you can "create" a key for it. I could post my key up here, but it would help you squat. . .on top of that here is my computer science message on pirating (being I want to make a living writing programs):
If you want to play the game/use the application BUY IT! I will not work for free (no programmer will). I want to make money for doing my job. If I don't make any money then there is no reason for me to make an improved version of the software. IE: If everyone pirated Tribes 1 there would not have been Tribes 2.
It's not so hard just to go buy it. You support the companies that make the products you enjoy and ensure that more will come. On top of that you will be doing your part to put money into the stagnant economy.
To sum up my view on pirating software:<object classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=5,0,0,0" WIDTH="60" HEIGHT="30">

My friend wants to "burn" my copy of Tribes2.. he is so ignorant. Oh well, poor, sad Canada.
If you need money to buy the game, get a better job!

Well in all honesty i never actually got around to buying Tribes 1, Tribes 2 I bought the day after it came out. I used to be a big Warez person but well all the games theres just too much to play. So i gave up and buy the ones I know I will play, and just leave Warez alone now.
As for my comp is a celeron also, 852Mhz with a Hercules GeForce2 MX video card, Sound Blaster Live sound card, 384 megs of Ram yada yada yada.. she runs okay. Not quite fast as I would like but you can tell where my cash flow goes when compared to games.

Hey, I got a real copy of both Tribeses.
Can a celeron realy run Tribes 2? It turns out he's got one of those horrible shared-memory thingies... Laurelin should know. It's a TNT2.

Mine was an intel 840 chip... a 3d graphics accelerator that stole up to 11 meg of system RAM when it needed it. :( As for Tribes... Well, let's just a say a good friend gave a good friend an illegal copy, and I somehow procured the copy from this second good friend... there... I think I've saved all the identities. :lol

Well we cant really argue with that. Man Tribes, that brings back some good old memories. Antipodes with Fox, or should I say KitZune and Sirus... my web page development. Heck I remember when you used to come to me for advice Gryphon! :)
And now look me coming to you for membership ;)

Speakin' of wheres.com...I haven't been able to connect to them lately. Did they go under? :eek:

They seem like they go down for a while, then when your about to give up, they pop back up again.
Yeah, I haven't been able to connect either.

I had a copy of T1 from Gryphon for about a month, then I went and bought it.
*it's late and I'm not really sure what procured means, but it better mean that some really REALLY awsome friends found a way to get you a legally issued copy of T2 and a damn nice video card! :D*
