Do you think it was an automated bot, or an actual person that manually selected everybody's name (for the PMs)?

Same here. Almost certainly a bot that got past the captcha (or however you spell it).

In our CrystalSpace-based project, we are using the latest SVN of CEGUI. In order to port the current code to Windows, I am trying to build the application (and its underlying libraries) using solely Visual C++ 2005 Express Edition (VC8). I have checked out the latest svn of CEGUI and have tried just using the .sln (solution) file included. However, it fails because it lacks PCRE. Looking at PCRE, it seems I will have to load the files into a VC8 solution file and compile them "manually" (i.e., setting the options and such myself, rather than relying on a pre-made solution file).

While this looks like it will work, it just seems in-elegant to me. I was wondering how y'all compiled the libraries in cs-win32libs for usage with VC8? Am I on the right track, or do y'all do something different (and hopefully easier Smiley)?

Thanks!

We recently switched web hosts, so please feel free to visit the new website and forums. Hope to see you on there!

Just to give everybody an update, we have switched web hosts to Dawnet, so our web addresses have subsequently changed: Please visit our new game website and revamped forums!

Additionally, we are still running the HUD contest through January 28th. This should give y'all more time to submit entries, so get to work!

Hope to see some more faces from CrystalSpace on the GNE Forums, even if it's to drop by and post ideas on occasion.

(Oh, be sure to tell your members how to use a wiki and to keep it clean if you want to use such a thing... They're evil...)

How would you suggest doing this - how would you say a wiki should be used and kept clean? What pitfalls should I avoid in using them (i.e., how are they evil)?

For anybody who's visited the website or forums in the past several days may have noticed that they were down. This was due to difficulties with our old webhosting provider. We have since switched to a new provider (Dawnet) and are in the process of rebuilding our website and forums. We'll keep y'all posted about our progress!
