Most often however, flames are angry or insulting messages transmitted by people who have strong feelings about a subject."Īlso here are some links to WinRar Downloads. Occasionally, flamers wish to upset and offend other members of the forum, in which case they can be called "trolls". This leads him or her to personally attack those who disagree. Other times, a flamer is simply an individual who believes he or she carries the only valid opinion. ![]() Sometimes, flamers attempt to assert their authority, or establish a position of superiority over other users. An Internet user typically generates a flame response to other posts or users posting on a site, and such a response is usually not constructive, does not clarify a discussion, and does not persuade others. Flaming usually occurs in the social context of a discussion board, Internet Relay Chat (IRC) or even through e-mail. "Flaming is the hostile and insulting interaction between Internet users. Hi and just wanted to say welcome to the forum,also noticed you asked,"What does "Flamers" Mean? This is from Wiktionary. )Įdit by moderator (Whiterabbit) I couldn't find the link for Mystery Land when I followed the link provided above though you can also get it here: So, I've been pleased to see your enthusiasm for them. I've been hunting, trying and collecting them for years, though mostly from the freeware realm, and mostly in years past. I should talk to you about arkanoids sometime, Stephen. (13 pages of arkanoids, mostly freeware I think.) ![]() That's a trustworthy freeware/shareware portal in the Czech Republic (.cz) I've been visting for years, the freeware files are clean and available, and mostly in English. The lack of instructions or info is a letdown but the game is well worth trying. The bricks, powerups and layouts (60 levels) are interesting and the gameplay has a unique but difficult to grasp RPG style twist (be sure to right click when prompted to 'level up', and left click after getting new powerups). The playfield is a cobblestone platform set in a pool surrounded by plant life, the atmosphere is all sunshine chirping birds and happy music. Today I discovered an excellent freeware fully 3D breakout / arkanoid clone called Mystery Land. > "To my knowledge there are no 3D arkanoids available as freeware" This one at least has some challenging levels. It retains some semblence of the original in that the bricks are well made, but other than that the game is totally different and far better than the original. There's already a couple of fan made levels available but I can't find the link in my favorites folder. It's fantastic and also comes with a level editor. I got 30% off for beta testing it lol, though because it was Christmas they had reduced it for a limited period anyway. Suki I bought Hyperballoid 2 the day it was released (over on Alawar).

Also 7-Zip does unzip rar files (but wont zip to rar, so downloading 7-Zip is probably going to help with the files you've been unable to unzip: Sukibabe is absolutely right about winrar, once the trial is over it's still functional, you just get nag screens asking you to purchase the program. I've spend a fortune on games since my accident as i found playing games really helped keep my mind off the pain. ![]() Hi Candleflame, I agree with you about the distraction therapy. I looked for your name and that popped up, lol, only found your "sim" self, did you get out of the hut, lmao!? I am assuming filefront is a storage place. Whabbit: I went there to look for strkeball as your above post mentioned it would be there if I wanted it. Will post more when I remember them, just got up, takes my brain awhile to function. Sorry to say RA is the only reliable one, comes out every Thursday. Mumbo Jumbo: Forget! They send a 15 minute demo, lmao.
