    Oh boy, PoD? haven't even heard anyone mention that since windows 95!

    Too bad people forget what it means...
    PoD = sending a packet larger than the maximum size (65,536 bytes) to another person. It would crash their intarwebs for some time due to a memory overflow. It's been fixed for a LONG time now.

    What AliStarr is referencing is DoSing (or could be DDoSing if he has a network)



    I was close :tongue.gif: i was learning about it a few weeks back and its funny to see how many websites aren't protected from it. its overlooked as redundant but still works, i crashed my schools network with it. earned me a 5 day suspension but it was worth the test

    Payable on death?


    Ping of Death.

    Basically its a hundred thousand pings every second until your servers commit suicide. a 17 yr old kid took down Google and Yahoo in one go with it. I recommend you disable ping requests to where ever your database is located.

    can your server handle 100,000 x 32bits of data every second? I think not.

    posted a message on Updated Graphics?
    if you want better Graphics then download a texture pack. they make it look prettier but IMO I think the 16bit graphics make the game. its cool. old school. and I think my laptop would commit suicide if it had better graphics ;D

    posted a message on what was your most epic fail?
    I got adventurous one day on a new save and decided that I would explore a cave system, with no tools.
    I got really far down and found heaps of ores, it was great! until I fell through a hole and landed in a shaft about 30 blocks deep. again. NO TOOLS.
