That is true, vb.net does do sockets however, and in the right hands, has powerful gaming possibilities...however, that isn't my job :P, after all, Marked and the other admin's make the final decision!

vb.net then if we're gonna use languages :D I could contribute a lot of program codes to vb.net....not really game engine, but some of my own coding.

Thanks.

Misunderstood you...sorry. I suppose overboard was misused here. Hitler can burn in hell. I would high five that police officer. Too bad that stuff doesn't happen here in America. If we phone the police, they usually high tail it here. Anyway, back to the topic. ....I got nothin to go on now....

Just an update, the story has a name: Our Fallen Hero

Slowly but surely its coming along. It's getting harder to implement the features we want for this version. I don't see Scrive 5.0 Beta coming out until possibly Mid to End of June. I could really use some extra hands in 5.0 I have most of the features in place, but getting them all working with logical sense is not easy at all.

Hey rich! I know you! Welcome to RMXPU!

Double post xD: Being white, I can confirm that. Come to my school, our football team will stampede anyone who decides to piss them off

I know its your job as an administrator, else I probably would have started a flame war. Strikeout this remark: I follow their beliefs because I tell things as I see it? I'm just speaking the truth about what I see, and the majority of who it involves, and it's a sad truth about America, that we're killing ourselves on the inside.

Glad ya do polraudio!

I was referring to gangs. The picture below was aimed at gangs. I already stated I have no problem with black people, it's the gangs that I do. Then I'll just strikeout the remark. I don't care if you do close this topic, I was showing my viewpoints. I already figured I was racist because of how my living area is populated. I'm not going to go over the edge and become a white supremest (which is IMHO, going way overboard) I know it happens in all races. You just don't see it happen as often. I know what white power is, after all I am white. Again, close this topic if you want, I'm just stating my points here, so now that I'm done imma go back and finish scrive 5.0.

Nonono, of the percentages going to the school. 50% of students are black 70% of those 50% are failing.

If I said that out loud in my school, I wouldn't be alive the following day. Percentage of students: Blacks: 50% Mexicans: 30% Rest (Whites, asians, etc): 20% Percentage Failing: Blacks: 70% Mexicans: 85% Rest: 15% It's sadly true at my school.

Ok people, I start out by saying I'm white. What I'm going to say, will probably piss off some people, but I don't care right now, cause I'm tired of this bullshit happening. Question: How many white people do you hear saying "It's because I'm white, isn't it?", yet how many blacks do you hear saying "It's because I'm black." No it's not because you're fucking black, its because your fucking ass broke the goddamn fucking law. If I see your ass doing something wrong, I don't give a damn if you're blue, green, gray, mexican, korean, chinese, or fucking red as roses, I'm gonna call your ass on it, so don't pull that lame ass racism card. It's not a fucking get out of jail free card, and you just make racism that much bigger because you get offended so fucking easily. Next topic, what the fuck do we call you? African Americans pisses off some, Negro pisses off more! Either way, we get yelled at. Plus, gangs...dear god don't get me fucking started on gangs. You wonder why most other races condemn you, or judge you. I mean seriously, LOOK AT YOU: And these guys: Seriously, what the fuck guys. Don't call me a racist either, I'm not. I got many black friends who are pretty badass. It's just you fuckin punks that piss me off, sitting there packing a 9mm because you think its cool. Maybe if you fucking assholes cleaned up your act and language, you wouldn't be judged so fucking much. There's my rant, now discuss (as I await the eventual racist accusations.) EDIT: Changed the topic to fit my text. Now don't throw a fit about calling me racist either -.-

NOOOOOOOOOOO

Ok, thanks.

If your MySQL service can accept remote connections, then yes, that would be great. We just need one database, with two tables. If it's OK with your partner, I'll send you the SQL file to setup the database. All we'd need back was a MySQL user, password, and the db name.

Scrive 4.5 Release 2: We removed the need for a button to load the scripts. Note: Pictures don't work on any version, because the database is currently glitchy...don't know how long this will last.

Thanks..

I was depressed when I wrote this.. The story. The shots echoed throughout the valley. Eggman stood over Sonics’ bloodied corpse, laughing like the mad man he is. An explosion rang out behind him, as what remained of his main building was destroyed. He chuckled, while getting into his escape vehicle. The days that hog would interfere were long gone now. He slammed a button, and took off leaving a trail of burnt grass next to Sonic. Another explosion echoed off the valley walls. A large tower had fallen; the last structure of Eggmans’ terrible facility was gone. The group was celebrating but something felt wrong. “Where’s Sonic?” Tails asked. Amy looked around. “I don’t know…” Amy said. “This isn’t like him…he’s usually the one leading the celebrations.” Amy started to walk around. Her heart was racing as she came over a hill. “Tails, over here!” Amy cried out. She wanted her eyes to lie to her, but they refused. Tails came up behind her, and gasped in shock. He turned around to prevent Cream from coming closer. She looked questioningly at Tails. “Tails…why won’t you let me through?” she asked. Tails began to tear up as he hugged Cream. Knuckles ran up to see Tails in tears holding Cream. He saw Amy frozen in place at the top of the hill. He ran up and gasped at what he saw. “No…” he whispered, clenching his fists. “Goddamn it, no!” he yelled out slamming the ground. Cream had already figured it out and was crying into Tails shoulder. Knuckles ran down the hill with Amy following him. They slowed to a walk as they approached his body. Amy started crying as Knuckles checked for a pulse. He gulped. “He’s…he’s dead Amy.” He said, tearing up as well. Amy hugged Knuckles for comfort as the entire group mourned for the death of their friend. … The funeral was two weeks later. It was a small funeral, just as the group requested. Amy, Knuckles, Tails, Cream, Shadow and Rouge sat in the front row. Amy was in tears, Tails and Knuckles were in shock, and Cream was crying her eyes out. Tails did what he could to comfort her, but he too felt the pain. I'm so tired of being here. Suppressed by all my childish fears, And if you have to leave, I wish that you would just leave. 'Cause your presence still lingers here. Amy got up to give flowers to Sonic. As she saw his face, she knelt down and cried, her tears falling into the casket. And it won't leave me alone! These wounds won't seem to heal, This pain is just too real! There's just too much that time cannot erase! Tails followed her, taking Cream with him. Tails told himself he wouldn’t cry, but he soon broke down too. Together, he and Cream laid their flowers down, paying their respects. They sat down with Amy at his casket comforting her. The rain started to fall, and it appeared the very heavens were crying at the loss of him. When you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears. When you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears! Amy thought back to the older days. She tried to remember his voice, but it eluded her. She sat got up with Tails and Cream, and the trio walked back to their seat. And I held your hand through all of these years, But you still have… All of me! Knuckles sat his flowers down, looking into the casket. He balled up his fists and walked to his seat, holding back tears. Shadow and Rouge, hand in hand, quietly walked up to the casket. Rouge took one look and cried into Shadow’s shoulder. He held her close to him, as they paid their final respects to the fallen hero. You used to captivate me, By your resonating light. Now I'm bound by the life you left behind. The priest said their final prayer as they closed the casket. They proceeded to a hearse, where they all got in. The emotions were intense, as Amy sat crying into Knuckles, Cream just holding on to Tails, and Rouge crying her eyes out into Shadow. Your face it haunts, My once pleasant dreams. Your voice it chased away, All the sanity in me! The cemetery had an arid feeling to it. The priest was saying the blessings to the burial site while holding back his own tears. The group stood outside in the rain, while several onlookers joined in, taking off their hats and joining in the sorrow. These wounds won't seem to heal, This pain is just too real, There's just too much that time cannot erase! Amy stayed at Knuckles. She laid down in his bed since Knuckles had opted to take the couch, and cried herself to sleep. Knuckles came in when he heard her cry during the night. He stayed with her to comfort her. When you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears, When you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears! Amy’s dreams were a mess. She saw him, and heard him as if nothing happened. She begged the dream to be reality. When she awoke, she was crying. Knuckles held her close to his body. She turned around and saw Knuckles asleep beside her. She hugged him back, and cuddled close. And I held your hand through all of these years, But you still have… All of me! Tails and Cream had stayed together that night. The two were sitting together in Tails bedroom. She had gone to sleep, but Tails couldn’t. His mind was wandering off to Sonic and their adventures together. Tails tried to remember the good times, but his mind refused to let him. I'm so tired of being here, Suppressed by all my childish fears. Tails broke down into tears randomly, waking up Cream. She sat up and noticed Tails was sitting in a chair. He was a total mess. She got up and walked to him, sitting on his lap. She hugged him and Tails returned it. The two sat there the rest of the night, with Tails and later Cream crying. And if you have to leave, I wish that you would just leave, 'Cause your presence still lingers here, And it won't leave me alone! Rouge sat at her house with Shadow next to her. He was holding on to her as she was still in shock. Shadow didn’t cry, but he kept his eyes shut, holding back the tears. Rouge was crying into his shoulder and Shadow let it out. He cried for the first time in his life. He had had enough of everything. He couldn’t believe what was happening. These wounds won't seem to heal! This pain is just too real, There's just too much that time cannot erase! He picked up Rouge, and carried her to her room. He gently sat her down in her bed, and laid down behind her. They held each other close together, gently crying each other sleep. Their dreams were filled with nightmares of what had happened to Sonic and their fears of what happens next. Sonic looked down from the heavens. He sighed to himself. “They’re mourning because you left them.” A voice said. Sonic looked behind him, and saw his mother. Sonics’ eyes watered up and he ran to her, crying. The two embraced for the first time in 19 years. He truly cried for the first time into her shoulders. When you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears, When you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears. “It wasn’t your time Sonic.” She said. “But you’re here now. Watch over them, and guide them.” Sonic looked at her questioningly. “Watch over them, keep them safe Sonic.” She whispered. “I’ll guide you if you need me to.” And I held your hand through all of these years, But you still have, All of me.

The long chapters come back! Chapter 11 Chapter 11 Shadow awoke the next morning right next to Ex. His arms were wrapped around her, and he was very close to her. He blushed heavily, as he slowly tried to unwrap himself from her. She moved around and opened her eyes. “You know, if you were cold last night, you could have just gotten a blanket.” She said. Shadow grunted. “I woke up like this, not like I did it myself last night.” He said defensively. He quickly let go of her, sat up, and stretched. She stood up, and let out a big yawn, stretched, and walked to the kitchen area. She bent down, and opened up the refrigerator. Shadow had just turned to the kitchen, and noticed Ex bent down. He sat there, staring for a while until she got back up. He quickly averted his eyes. “You know, I could feel your eyes all on my ass.” She said. Shadow winced. “Next time, try to be less apparent of what you’re looking at.” “How do you know I was looking there?” he said. She smiled. “I didn’t, but you just told me you were.” Shadow looked puzzled for a second. “Damn it!” He muttered. He had gotten what she just said. He lay back down on the giant pillow bed, and closed his eyes. He heard a throat clear above him. He opened his eyes, and found Ex’s face just inches from his face. “I brought breakfast.” She said, shoving a bowl in his face. He took the bowl and looked at its contents. It was a bowl of Frosted Flakes Cereal. Shadow yawned, and started to eat. It had been awhile since he had eaten anything, so he was pretty hungry. He had finished his bowl before she had taken a few bites. He set the bowl down and got up, stretching and yawning. He looked around for the bathroom door. “Over there, next to the bedroom.” She said, pointing to the hallway. He stared at her, wondering how she knew. He walked into the bathroom, closed the door, and took out a brush. He proceeded to mess with his spikes until they looked fine. He walked out, and noticed that Ex had already changed into some new clothes. He shrugged to himself, and walked to the door. “Going somewhere?” she asked. He nodded. “Going home, I need to change, and take a shower.” He said. “I assume you need me to get you out of here.” She groaned. Shadow scoffed. “Just tell me what street we’re on, I can find my way.” He said. She smirked. “4142 Cameron Street.” She said. Shadow closed his eyes, imagining a city map. He quickly located Cameron Street. It was a few miles from the city center, where he wanted to be. He nodded, opened the door, and ran out. Ex stretched back out, and took a nap. She was still pretty tired, so she didn’t think twice about killing off another day. … Sonic awoke the next day to a dull rumbling sound. He looked at his stomach, and happily rang the bell. A cheery nurse came in. “Good morning Sonic!” she said brightly. “What can I do for ya?” Sonic smiled. “Good morning to you too!” he said. “I’d like a dozen pancakes, a glass of orange juice, 3 eggs, 4 sausage links, and half a dozen bacon strips.” He finished, with a smile. The nurse laughed. “I’ll get ya what I can darlin’.” She said walking down the hall. He laughed, and sat up, thinking of what occurred yesterday. He couldn’t believe he had kissed Amy! I mean, he knew it was inevitable. Everyone knew it was going to happen, even him. She was just too cheerful to not fall in love with. He had always liked her, but not the way she liked him. Guess all that had happened had pushed his feelings towards her to a new level. He was still in deep thought when the nurse came back. “Alright, I got you half a dozen pancakes, a glass of orange juice, 3 eggs, a couple sausage links, and only 4 bacon strips.” She said. “I would have gotten more, but the kitchen is short staffed today, and they’re running behind as it is.” Sonic nodded. “No need for an apology. This should be plenty of food!” he said. She laughed heartily, and sat the food down for Sonic, leaving some silverware for him. He grinned like a 2 year old at Christmas time, and tore into the food. Towards lunch time, Tails dropped in for a visit. He seemed cheerful, and was very talkative. He kept Sonic up to date on what the military was doing, even what the gang was doing. However, one thing he couldn’t do was tell Sonic about Ex. Tails left shortly after lunchtime, going out to get something to eat as well, leaving Sonic alone for the rest of the afternoon. Shortly before dinner, there was a knock at his door. Sonic perked his ears up, he had a visitor! “Come in!” he said happily. Amy walked in, carrying a plastic box that smelled delicious. Sonics’ nose went crazy trying to figure out what was inside. “Is that Chinese?” he asked. She giggled and nodded, pulling out 2 pairs of chop sticks. She broke them, and handed one to Sonic. He grinned, as she opened up the box. It had two plates of fresh Chinese food on them. Sonic waited for Amy to take her plate, and then he quickly took his and began to wolf it down. He was starving! Amy laughed at Sonic, who had just slopped Soy Sauce all over his mouth and didn’t notice it. He got a clue eventually when she pointed at his mouth in a round motion. He wiped his mouth and looked at the back of his hand. He grinned sheepishly. “Heh, I guess I make a mess don’t I?” he laughed. Amy nodded and continued to eat her Chinese food. Sonic had long finished his meal before Amy was done. She quietly sat her plate down, and stared at Sonic, who was beginning to doze off. She smiled happily, and got up. Sonic opened his eyes. “Where ya going Ames?” he asked. She turned around. “I’ll be back shortly Sonic.” She replied. The little Pink hedgehog ran off into the hallway, leaving Sonic in his room, wondering where she was off to. … Shadow was at the city center, and there was absolutely nothing to do. He sat around waiting for some news flash to pop up so he could pretend to care, but not even the TV would give him that pleasure. He was bored out of his mind! He started to fall asleep since he had nothing else to do. A nearby horn awoke him, as there was a car accident. He groaned and walked over to the cars. He kept his distance in case something bad happened. There was an explosion as one of the cars’ fuel tanks blew up. He sighed and picked up the car not in flames dragging it to the side. He dove in the other car, and pulled out the other driver. He hated that people were staring, so he quickly ran off, disappearing into the shadows of a large building. … Ex awoke later that day. She stretched out and yawned, looking around the house. I should probably get moving. The actual owners could get back soon. She thought to herself. She ran into the bedroom, looking for her clothes. Quickly packing them all up, she jetted out of the house, leaving everything else behind. Since she was possibly still being hunted by the police, she took refuge in the woodlands, making a small Den on the back of a hill. She sat down in her Den, making the most she could out of it. It was a large change from the house she was at, and the owners won’t be happy with her decoration changes. She grinned to herself, wondering what more she could possibly do today. An idea hit her, and she took off, running towards the center of the city. Within half an hour, she was at the center of the city. It was her fastest time, and she was exhausted. She checked her pocket for any money, but found none. She sighed, and walked towards a bank. The moment she walked in, a security guard noticed who she was. “Hey miss, Freeze!” he hollered. She looked up at him, and recognized him too. She held him at gunpoint a while back while robbing the first bank. She grinned as he pulled out his gun. “You aren’t going to get my gun this time lady!” he shouted. He was a short, but muscular Rabbit, and he had guts standing up to her. Since she was in no mood to get shot, she took off out the door, the rabbit close behind her. “I told you to freeze miss!” he shouted. He lost sight of her while running through the city’s Central Park. He pulled on his radio, and shouted orders in. “I got a bank robbery suspect, was on pursuit and lost her. Suspect was last spotted in Central Park. Lock down the streets leaving this section of town!” he yelled. Sirens were heard everywhere as police cars pulled up, blocking Avenues and walkways leaving the park. Ex was hiding in the tallest tree at Central Park. She looked down at the policemen, all blocking her exit routes. She sighed, mentally laughing at their stupidity. “Going somewhere?” a voice said behind her. She quickly turned around, fists at the ready, and noticed it was Shadow. “How’d you know I was here?” she asked. Shadow shrugged. “I would be in the same spot you are, no policeman can climb this tree, so you should be safe up here for a bit. Eventually, you will have to come down.” This time it was Ex’s turn to shrug. “If I gotta come down, I’ll come down, but not a moment before.” She said defiantly. “You gonna help me or not?” Shadow laughed. “You already owe me one wolf.” He said. “Want to make it two?” she glared at him. “Fine, bug off, I’ll figure something out.” She said. Shadow grinned, and ran off. He got to the top of a building, and decided to watch the show from up here. … Sonic sat patiently in his room, waiting for Amy to return. He yawned, that Chinese food had made him sleepy. Hell, all food made him sleepy to some degree. The door opened up, and Amy walked back in. She seemed to be glowing in happiness. “I talked to the doctor. You’re free to leave.” She said. “You gotta stay with a friend though, because of your injuries.” Sonic smiled. “I’m sure you can take good care of me Amy.” Sonic said. Amy giggled and blushed. She walked over, and turned off the machines, while Sonic pulled out the wires and needles from his body. When he was done, his arm looked like a little pincushion with all the little holes in it, but with Amy’s support, they walked out of the hospital, hand in hand, back to her place. Amy unlocked the door and walked in, leading Sonic in. The first impression he got of her place was of strawberries. Her place smelled amazing, and not everything was pink! That was a major plus. Amy may have been a pink hedgehog, but she didn’t always buy pink clothes. “Follow me Sonic, I’ll show you to your room.” She said. Sonic nodded and walked towards Amy, who disappeared down a hall. Sonic rounded a corner, and saw Amy at the end of the hall. She opened a door and pointed inside. “This is your room.” She said. “Mine is next door to yours, so if you need anything, let me know.” Sonic nodded and walked into his room, going right to the bed. “Well, I’m off to bed.” He said. She nodded. “I’ll be going too.” She said. She closed his door, and walked to her room. Sleep well Sonic. She thought. As Amy got ready for bed, she thought about how Sonic was feeling. She didn’t have a clue, and it bugged her. Amy fell into her bed, and quickly drifted off to sleep.
