I know I mentioned the life bars not working before, but there still seems to be a problem. I play HMW on 2 computers, one has IE7 and the other has Firefox. The one with firefox still seems to have that problem.

Yeah, they just come up as grey lines instead. (in my case work is FF, home is IE)

Its hardly a game breaking problem, but FF does have a few glitches.

My link bar only comes to the center of the HMW, it doesn't obscure anything important. Just annoying. ie7.

Also, it acts like it;s going through anotyher page when it does it, the code shows up without a background, then goes on. And this lag is long enough for me to lose my spot in a mission and make another have to pop up.

The code pops up for me as well, but it only displays for 1-2 seconds before going on to show the missions page (and where the link bar decides to jump onto the HMW banner). IE6.

I fell it worth pointing out that the age old problem of a none participating faction winning timed out missions/arean bouts is still very much alive an well.

It's a very old bug, surly it's time it was bannished to the great bugsplatter in the sky now.

I don't know how long its been like this, but I went to start working on bios and the bold/italics/underline tags don't work in our profiles anymore.

I know they used to. I think it even goes back to when Glyph was the programmer. I think it was him that set that up...

What kinda tags are you trying to use?

Code: Select all
[i]this[/i]


or

Code: Select all
<i>this</i>


You should be using the latter.

Already said that. It's an old problem, that came from when the beast factions were first implimented.

01:07 Strafes Furysurge(lvl 0) 2% damage: 2xp
01:07 Strafes Sentinelimus Prime(lvl 0) 1% damage: 1xp

19%? Where did that come from? It's only 4% (look at 04:53, you probably missed that).

2+1+18+20+4+10+5+13 = 73xp + the damage (6) on Sentinelimus Prime with over-damage (7) = 86 + 100 win bonus = 186xp
