It's a conspiracy. Michal got beamed up into a UFO by aliens and bribed not to add any more code to Soldat.

... sypder can u explain a little more? im looking..... but i dont see it....

If this is really true, then the fact that its taken him 15 days to post something up offically
is just slack, actually its a slap in the face to the ppl who have supported michal / soldat.

Anyway, im still hopefull that its fake :|

Ok, im assuming that this is real and if it isnt Hitman should be /banned from the forums for reaching

I hope michal can plz get online and explain this to everyone....

what ......

bleh, now he replaced the picture with another url address that leads to a hidden forum that only mods/admins have access to.

For those of you that still doesnt understand. The screenshot was fake.

go to http://archive.forums.soldat.pl/topic.php?topic_id=13359 and you will notice the same layout. Same layout meaning, there is 5 pages and b00stA editing.

EDIT: I will try dig up the original picture he posted. Probably in my temporary internet files folder somewhere.

n00bface
August 20, 2004, 4:00 am
first of all, there IS an admin/moderator forum.
second of all, b00sta edits a lot of his posts.
third and last, the edit dates aren't the same on the posts.

N1nj@
August 20, 2004, 4:11 am
"first of all, there IS an admin/moderator forum."
Yes I know there is an admin/mod forum, that is hidden, correct? I said that on my previous post.

"second of all, b00sta edits a lot of his posts."
Ya, sure b00stA edits a lot of his posts, but 5 pages? I dont see a lot 5 pages thread around a lot. Even in a hidden/close forum. Unless, you guys spam in there or something.

"third and last, the edit dates aren't the same on the posts."
oh no!?!??! ever heard of photoshop? is easy to edit the image, c'mon, you know that.

---

anyway, you guys believe what you want, cause I am not believing this bs.

oh and I can't seem to find the original picture, seem to be replaced at the same time Hitman replaced it. oh well

taken from hitman's pic and it said "u dont have access blah blah blah"
guess it doesnt prove anything except that hes either gone to great lengths to photoshop up this pic,
or it just adds to the list of things making it real.
Boosta should just come on and post.

ROFL Koil, if anyone buys something is to get profit. In this case means making soldat pay to play, and then I would greet all that idiots that suggested account system.

Palloco: please... why not? There are actually (or at least, were) some programmers following Soldat's development.
No matter what you think, I feel the same way as Aquarius. If one day Soldat becomes open source, it will be fun (and probably funny too, I admit it). Plus it could be playable on Linux, which might extend the community to more serious users...

Sorry, but no. The one thing Michal would want is the game to go pay to play. He's done this game for free for [:-censored]ing ages, and to me that's something he would stick to for a long while. If he was going to give it to companies, I'm sure' he'd at least ask for it to not go Pay to play and more like the gunbound system

Icarius
August 31, 2004, 6:49 am
If Michal used hacked programs to make soldat, he couldn't sell it for money, they could just rat him up. If michal had the actual coding programs, I don't think he'd need the money that much. Remember, he's making you donate money to register, which is optional. :O Your call.
