Hi,

How are you going? Sorry I've been away a while but now I'm back. Last I saw there are only 11 active members. I wonder how we can get some more people active. Any ideas?

The main drawback of D2OL is and has been the "fragillity" of the client. When I upgraded to the latest client the dual CPUs was not implemented in the same way as before. Then basically every update of the java engine has broken the D2OL client. To top it of using older OS version does not work either.

Compare that to DF, F@H that runs in everytthng from 10.0.4 to the latest 10.3.5 and has CLI clients that takes care of dual CPUs. Or SETI that can run on OS 8 and onwards.

Perhaps D2OL is better in Windows but I have had enough of it and will stay in F@H until Predictor gets up and running again.
