A quick Change, For the better.
Filed under News
Well Tracker was quick (Very Quick) to point out that I missed the 3rd’s post, true. However I have been looking at the two posts I’v done and I will be honest, I feel I must apologize for them, they are not the quality that this site deserves! So iv decided that instead of a 2-a-day post schedule to make it 2 a week. Now I might do more depending on how much free time I have. But I promise that these posts will be of much higher quality and you can be sure that they will be much more useful. There is also the podcast to look forward to, me and Tracker will be definitely doing that. So here is what I have in store for you guys right now:
1. Setting up an CS:S server from a control panel, complete with reviews of different plug-ins and add-ons. Screen shots will be there of course, and if I can, ill be doing a video on it as well. Videos are new to me so it should be interesting.
2. Game mods, lots of them! Lots of reviews, This will include Ratings, Screen Shots, and hopefully game play videos! (This one is my favorite)
3. Nuking your media library into shape!
4. Live Video Streaming! Me and Tracker have found a variety of video streaming sites, where one can stream themselves playing games, or making mods! We both plan on doing this very soon, and I also plan on reviewing the different services and how to set up your own stream.
Well I hope this makes up for missing one post, and I hope you will be able to understand the need to down step our post count, we want to make sure your not bombarded with crap, here at TMS its all about doing it cause we can, and hopefully cause its useful.

Where was Dark?!?!?

Welcome one and welcome all! Welcome to Darks Carnival!
Heh, ok guys I have been away for far to long, but not without good reason! For starters I got a job! That means I can buy new consoles and equipment! Also I finally upgraded to my new custom built PC! Actually its time for a story, because I should have had this PC up and running for about 3 months. When I fist got all the parts from newegg I was going to make a PC building tutorial, however I didn’t have my camera and I was so excited that I built it in just under 2 hours, but at the time I had no operating system disc so it sat there doing nothing for 2 weeks until I got a Vista 64 Bit Ultimate CD and CD key. All went well, I downloaded steam and counter-strike: source started up and joined a server, BAM, Crash. Turns out the card was bad, then I RMA’ed it and got another one, It worked… for about 5 days then the same problem happened again. So now I’m waiting for it to return, in the mean time I bought a temporary card and I like it alot more. More information on this card fiasco later but for now I’m just glad to be back!
New posting format! 2 posts per day wtf?!
Filed under News
Guess what everyone Dark is back! [So he says] he is wanting to do a post every day as well as me. Thus providing with you guys even more modding lust! Perhaps we will even bring back the podcast [NO WAI!] This should get quite interesting because if you have not noticed Dark has been gone MIA from TheModShop since early May of this year. Well apparently he has gotten things together and will be posting now but we will have to see how long that lasts.
In any event look forward to a lot more modding and a lot less suck from the site in the coming weeks

Akismet spam prevention having issues…
Filed under News
For a while now I have used Akismet to keep the spam on the site down however in recent months I have been getting the following message quite often.
Akismet has detected a problem. A server or network problem is preventing Akismet from working correctly. Click here for more information about how to fix the problem.
Now I can click the link to fix it and I am presented with the following info
Server Connectivity
Unable to reach any Akismet servers.
A network problem or firewall is blocking all connections from your web server to Akismet.com. Akismet cannot work correctly until this is fixed. Please contact your web host or firewall administrator and give them this information about Akismet and firewalls.

Now right below that there is a button to check it again and as soon as I click that then poof all is well.
Server Connectivity
All Akismet servers are available.
Akismet is working correctly. All servers are accessible.

For one reasion or another the akismet servers are crashing or the network between my server and the akismet servers is failing.
Anyone else have this issue?
