Calling dmologist

Post by +The Grey Lord »

Hi dmologist Have you got around to renaming all the mp3 tracks off the DM music CD yet. How is the uploading going. It's been ages since you've mentioned anything on the DM music subject. I still can't wait to hear the music off the cd.
Yours Hopefully...

Fantastic. I can't wait to hear the music. To get the music off the cd you can use a program called musicmatch jukebox which converts straight to mp3 and is pretty quick. I'll send you it if you don't have it.

remember that person who posted "come chekc out my CRPG site... has dungoen master stuff... the one that went down... Well before it went down i was contacted by someone who had already made a site, and was the real owner of those freediskspace acounts(the ones ehrre you could download those games ect). Anyway's... because of this i decided not to devote time to copy the manual and rip the CD for that person. So i'm checkign for the url to the "REAL" site and see if the offer still stands or whatever.

This is all crud. Anyone who posted on my old message board with their email address would have got an email from some guy claiming they were his games. The truth is the games were not mine, but the guy allowed me to link to them. We used to be friends. Used to be. He allowed me to link to them because he did not want to create a site. He was not bothered with all the HTML and that. It was a good deal because I have a slow modem and he has a cable modem, plus I wanted to create an RPG site. But, after he saw how well my site was doing he suddenly wanted to do another site all by himself. Hence he kindly decided to change the password hence deny my visitors access to the games. Not nice, as it took me AGES to create all the HTML and suddenly all my work was for nothing!
I'm sure as anyone who knows me will tell you I'm not that sort of a guy. There is no point to linking to someone's games without their consent. If I wanted to though, I could link to hundreds of games right now because I know of tons of different game sites. But why would I bother? It's not as if it would make me any money or anything...
But it wasn't that big a deal really - I kept getting complaints about how slow the Freediskspace service was downloading anyway. It isn't HTML, it isn't FTP, it's some weird method which seems to download at only a quarter of a modems usual speed! It also frequently stopped at 90% of a files download, which means you've waited ages and the download freezes and you get nothing! Very annoying :-) I was about to stop linking to the games anyway because of that, so I gave that as a reason for the games no longer being available on my site. Sorry about that, but I was annoyed at the time and didn't really want to go into the long-winded truth. Anyway, if I were you Dmologist, the last place I'd upload that DM CD music to is Freediskspace! I've been told www.driveway.com is the best place for online file storage.
But it's all water under the bridge now. I just wanted to clear this up once and for all. By the way, keep up the good work with the new site Ian! And you too Christophe! I'm sure everyone here will agree with me that www.dmweb.cjb.net is gonna be the next new home of DM fans, and http://dmweb.free.fr is the another one of the best information resources for Dungeon Master and CSB out there! Damn, you wouldn't believe DM still had so many dedicated fans around the world unless you saw it!
