Red Tomax's Guide to CoH
WTF?
I don't see them in Firefox, but if I look at the revised City of Data using either Opera or Internet Explorer I see Google Ads. Which wouldn't be a problem, if it weren't the same two ads every time. One advertises cheats for sale, the other is an influence seller. Not cool.

Ever found yourself struggling to find when redname said something.
Well, now, as well as keeping up to date with the latest Dev posts (Dev Digest, Community Digest & EU Dev Digest) via RSS feeds you can search the archive that powers those feeds, free from the pain of ending up at a deleted thread!
A few examples:
- _Castle_ talking about defiance
- Anyone talking about defiance
- That MOTD popup
- Dual Blades
- Dev nerfs

Odd they don't show up sometmes, never noticed that myself. I try to keep the ads at a bare minimum, and as out of the way as possible, and I think I've succeeded pretty well with having only a single ad placed right at the bottom of each page.
I can't pick what ad's show up -- I go with google ads because it works and doesn't take any effort on my part once it was set up ... that 1 ad banner really helps with the running costs of the server (about $25/month) ... short of running an on-going (and not necessarily successful) user donation campaign there's no way I can afford to run the site without them.
Especially so now -- as I'm getting married next Spring

Nice compilation there .. hadn't seen that before ... the list of devs in the search options is pulled from those that have posted something that has been mentioned on the dev/community digest .. so any missing ones simply haven't had their name up in lights in the time that the CoH Digest has been running.

Now update your site with Willpower and Dual Blades.
*sigh* Would be nice to get really detailed information about the powers again, what with two new sets, and a lot of alterations to how powers work (change to root times for clicks and toggles, new Defiance, different times on Trick Arrow, etc.). Oh wells, still use the site for both making new characters, as well as checking out storyarc info (for making informed decisions on how gimpy I can make my Flashback arcs for badges).

Not only that, forum purges, especially the killing of temporary Issue specific forums, also kills some of the redname posts. Contrary to popular belief, threads with redname posts are not immune to purges.

As long as the post is flagged up in the Dev Digest on these forums before it's pruned you'll be able to access the snapshot version of it within the CoH Digest itself until the day I close the site down.
e.g. Permanent archive of post #7992812 (Re: Save the cheerleader!)
I'm just disappointed I didn't think of this earlier, otherwise we'd have a lovely archive of posts back to sometime just before Issue 1 I think -- I wasn't around quite at the beginning ... NCSoft did their best to hide this game from us Europeans as long as they could!
Some news from RedTomax.com:
As some may recall, a few years ago I made an effort to pull together various CoH fansites to get us all working with each other rather than in relative isolation. At least four different sites has a database of in-game badges; ParagonWiki was expanding and adding all the mission detail that was already on my own site; you get the idea. If we all worked together, I thought, there'd be a lot less work for us each to do.
All that came of that project was an increase in the number of links between the various sites, which was nice, but not really what I'd hoped to achieve. There was one success though: City information Terminal opened up their badge database, allowing me to stop worrying about what new badges were being added to the game and focus on other things.
The Titan Network is what I'd hoped to create from that project in all but name -- I'd have called it the RedTomax network So I'm very happy to announce that RT.com is now officially part of the Network. I'd have been here sooner too, if it weren't for my Xbox 360 claiming a hell of a lot of my free time over the past 9 months or so!
What will this mean for you, my dear user? Not too much to be honest, I've always worked very closely with the Titan guys so nothing's going to change there. One thing you may notice is that the RT.com forums are gone, to be honest it's a pain in the [censored] keeping the spammers out for the amount of use the forums actually get (not a lot) so I don't think they'll be too missed. The Titan Network forums now sport their very own RT.com subforum, and best of all I don't have to look after it
You'll also be able to log into RT.com using your TitanKey, so that's one less password to remember.
PS. Please forgive all the broken pages on the site over the last few days, I've been clearing out some junk from the database and didn't realise quite how many pages were still pointing at the old data.

I'm glad to see things working well again. I depend on your site for so many things! The one piece that still seems to be missing is the Factions section. I keep getting blank pages when I try to follow the links there.

Hey RedTomax,
What browser do you use? I use IE6 and Firefox but the navigator on your site (the bit that looks like windows folders) doesn't work for me.

I know that it's broken for the badges section of the site (still haven't got around to fixing that specific bug), but other than that it works fine for me on Firefox in my day to day use, and in IE7 just now it seems to be working fine.
What page are you seeing problems on? Or is it all of them. I can't say that it should be working on IE6 as I don't have that installed aywhere, but it certainly should work with Firefox, bar the excpetion with the badges pages.
By the way, I love your site...thanks for the hard work. If you could get around to the badge bug fix, that would be great.

I've pretty much caught up on most things redtomax.com now, so hopefully I should be in-game regularly again -- until GTA:IV arrives anyway
