FYI, since inevitably someone will ask, I posted a news update.

Any new news?
Just had to say that ... :D

This is good news. Seems like GS dodged a second bullet (last one being Heartbleed).

This is literally the only MMO company I've never had to worry about giving my information to, and I've dealt with a few.

It is good news. That doesn't change the fact that every post you make, Phaser, is written in an insufferably sycophantic tone.

Heh, I'll tone it down.

And here I was thinking this was about a new game feature where if you get rocked by rockets, you might be stunned or disoriented further than that of your ship being blown around.

I hope that means you use tsh or ash or something obscure and not that all this time vo has run on win2k or something frightening ;)

So Guild has a better record than Target, Home Depot, Jimmy John's, Kohl's, and some other notables.

What about the rumors that Attorney General Eric Holder is actually resigning to become the NEW PRESIDENT OF GUILD SOFTWARE ?!?

Wow that is a dumb bug lol. Windows 4 life.

Was really hoping this was an announcement for a new type of ship vulnerability like where some ships would be balanced by being more or less vulnerable to flares. Damn you!

Didn't take long for them to add a catchy name to this one too, huh?

Last I heard, they run the servers on BSD.

Not that it has any specific relevance to VO, but is it just me that finds describing a software bug as "shellshock" on the 100th anniversary of ww1 a bit distasteful ?

Just a thought.

Aside from you, Ecka, I doubt there's anyone left from the WWI generation to be offended.
