    I agree with the B/O part. A friend of mine just quit playing because he could not deal with the smell coming from the other players, among a few other reasons. It gets bad!

    I did not have this problem at my last store however, so I suppose it matters where you go and what the age group is. You can never blanket a group with a generalization, even if they are oftentimes true. hah!

  • posted a message on [Resolved] Pasting Excel
    I have all my cards listed in in Excel. When I paste it into my list and accept the changes it just creates a block of text. Is it possible to get a perfect, or similar paste of my excel file onto my list?

    If I champion a Prowess of the Fair with a Wren's Run Pack Master and have 2 Llanowar Elves in play what happens when my opponent wipes the board with a Wrath or similar spell?
    In short, do I get 0, 2, or 3 elf tokens?

    Thank you for the help in advance.

    Let me tell you something that I have learned the hard way over the last 10 years of playing this game.... Never buy a sealed product. I believe that you should take that $50 and buy the exact cards you want.
    Go to eBay to buy the rares and FindMagicCards.com to find a good common/uncommon vendor.

    Let me digress back to the original point of illegal access. Changing firewalls and blocking IP ranges does not solve any problem. Also they use a 3rd party server so the IP range does belong to some valid companies.

    PSI is a company that installs creepers into peoples websites. The host or owner is never suppose to find out that the creeper is in their page.

    Please allow me to use some references and quotes from outside sources here to attempt to validate my argument.
    "The same one also left me wondering for a long time until I made further research. With the following IPs
    38.98.120.83
    38.100.41.112
    This started to happen after I tried to contract some one supposedly from India to work on my site who mentioned an affiliate company in the US. Interestingly enough the person who signed on to my site also belonged to the same strings of IPs which is 38.98.120..83. I fired the group and kicked them out from from my site. After further investigation to my files, I found out a suspicious program called CERBERUS installed on my site. I confronted the person who pretentiously claimed to be working on my site. He dodged the questions.
    Does any one have any advice for me where to check for site integrity and security vulnerability and how to take care of it?
    Thank you for the info.

    This link has a post from the above guy along with some other relevant information about a person who found PSI hiding in the program WeatherBug. Whereas this link addresses client side problems, the first link addresses server side problems.

    Do not know how relevant his last link is.. just figured I would throw it in.

    This is my last post on this thread, as it seams I am upsetting the wrong people with talk of this creeper. But please someone take this seriously, because just baning the IPs or changing firewalls is not a solution, it is a diversion.

    Thank you everyone for the responses.

    I can get on www.vbulletin.com/forum/? with no problem while the firewall is active.

    When I get blocked from sites it is beacuse they are tryign to access my computer in some way. With the local train website for example, I cannot log in beacuse the Transit Authority is trying to access my computer and PeerGuardian blocks it. I do not know how to check to see if PSI is on my computer through another program, but I do not beleive this to be the case.
    I will try Zone Alarm, but then I will still get accessed my PSI. I am surprised that no one uses PeerGuardian, it is an amazing program.... I beleive that if someone tried this program out that they would have the same problems accessing these forums.

    I disable the firewall to access these forums!!!

    Do you use PeerGuardian as your firewall?

    Can any Moderators comment on whether or not MTG Salvation allows this company on their page?

    I constantly have a problem where I cannot access these forums because Performance Systems International will not allow access to them when a Firewall is up blocking them from stealing information.

    I just want to find out if any of the mods know if this company has legally installed a creeper on this site or not. This company is involved in very illegal data mining and they are doing so on this website.

    Can someone please tell me how to stop this? This may be a problem with the entire site, or it may just be my problem, however after some research I believe that it is a problem with the host.


    This is a repost from the Tech forums. It has been about a week and no one answered there so I moved it here....

    Did I post in the wrong forum? I want to know if anyone else's data is being stolen when ever they log on here.

    Thanks for all the responses everyone. It is Good to know that there are people out there willing to put some time into answering the questions that I would not know where else to go to ask.
    If the series keep getting farther and farther away from being solidly tied into the 'multi-verse' though, I think I will be done with this series.

    Can someone please tell me how this relates into the book series?
    By the end of the last book I was hoping that somehow it was the plane that Karn created, because Memnarch with an (e) sort of means going through puberty, as if the planet was going through puberty.... Possibly becoming Ravincia thousands of years later. Probably not. Just that the Veldikins were there and all....

    Can someone please clarify? I know I am just grasping at straws.... But I don't want to feel like I wasted my time reading those 3 books.


    I know I cant spell.

    Thanks!
