The Demise of Hyperlobby

[Eries]

From Furbals post over at Ubi forums.

"UPDATE: 9 June
Jiri advises that all holes should now be filled and these hacks should not now bother us.
Thank you, Jiri ! (that's fast !)"


Rgr, thanks very much to Jiri !

Now if we could get him to choose again among the trustworthy folks he knows there to create another group of moderators . It would again be nice to see the level of moderator activity we saw for many years early on that made Hyperlobby more of an intellectual experience than an experience of practicing the "ignore" command.

But importantly much apreciation to Jiri for taking the time to do some patching.. Salute !

+1 on that. Thanks very much Jiri for mending your brainchild.

I think that the Hyperlobby is still usable. I haven't stopped using it since Sturmovik first flew there. I use private IP as well, but HL remains the place for casual encounters in open coop missions. Sure, there are some total plonkers using the chat now & again - but I don't have a problem ignoring them.

With regards to the moderation issue, I don't think there is any problem.
Why would anyone bother if some bs talk is happening in the chat?
Let's not be puritans. HL is working perfectly well and there is no need for moderation.

I do regret posting this subject titled as " The Demise of Hyperlobby" instead on "The Demise of Hyperlobby?" or something just as benign.

It really was a question as much as anything. Jiri deserves more in every respect for creating something to serve others. Nothing is nobler than giving of yourself to serve others. I'd wish every patron felt similarly.

A Hyperlobby account is something I'd certainly pony up $$ for , if it maintained its historic level of maintenance and moderation..

That'd weed out a few wingnuts eh?

Jiri has posted over at Ubi for anyone who wants to see whats up and give some thanks..

There used to be a Paypal donation button on the Hyperfighter website.

He probably got fed up looking into an empty bucket and removed it

Trouble with HyperLobby might have been more apt. Demise is much more dramatic. After I read the thread I did some more reading and read all of the posts on Ubi before I realize that everything was just peachy....and that Jiri had even posted saying that fixes had been made (thanks to him!). No need to cause a panic

Well, as long as it works in listing servers i have no problem. I think that in all these years i've never even looked at the chat window once
