Then both machines coupled together with a crossover running between the NIC's. Host machine's got static 192.168.0.1 addres configured and guest machine set to obtain automatically so that when you boot it picks up a DHCP address. Part of windows Internet connection sharing. All i wanted to know is that is this possible with firefox?

Greetings pawn-pushers!
Russ closed my account about a month ago due to my (mis)listing of a porn site in the open invites area*. After an explanation and apology and what Russ called a "cooling off period", I was "re-instated". I quickly discovered my membership was cancelled and am only being allowed to finish out my existing games. Even with ...[text shortened]... you all.

B) Don't care.
Grab a hanky not a keyboard next time you need to have a good cry.
dude i don't know how you accidentally put a porn site address on open invites but i guess stranger things have happened. i just can't think of one at the moment.
but i agree you do deserve some correspondence from russ. i sent him several emails complaining of a player who sent me a disgusting and abusive email because i deleted a game we were playing.
it's been weeks now and not a peep from him about it. then i sent him one enquiring about membership and got a response in 24 hours.
so i guess some things are just alittle too hard for russ

If you're going to get Firefox, make sure you get the Adblock extension too!
I will be clearing the feedback log down shortly, including dealing with ravenswood's subscription. Apart from priority issues I have been clearing general feedback in single sittings where time allows. This has meant delays, particularly if you sent feedback just after my last session. Anyway, this subs issue is to be sorted tonight. It will be reinstated.
Also, an update on my current status, the majority of my time should be back on developing the site again soon. My contracting project is in its final stages, and I am now desperate to get stuck back in here – I still have a number of RHP projects left unfinished from the spring, and loads more stuff floating around my head.
