Viper's Graal Issues.

Hello everyone, as of late, many people have been attacking me on the issues and matters, trying to lie about things, bend the truth, and downright spin to make me and others of my cause look bad, in this text document i will discuss and lay to rest the issues that matter.

I have been involved Graal for over three years now, and i used to really like Graal and its admins alot, then slowly after about a year Graal and its admins went in a bad downward spiral, i still stuck with Graal in hopes Graal would pull itself out of this hole and Unixmad would go back to the right path, this however did not happen, instead Unixmad and even Stefan went fouler and lower than i could have imageined, First with fireing Pachuka and Fuitad, two of the BEST Graal admins ever in my view for no other reason than disagreeing with his future plans, then if just fireing them was not bad enough, he threatend to sue them and kill they're families, this was so wrong and bad Fuitad even said he would punch Unixmad in the face for saying that if he met him in real life, but that was just the beginning of the downward spiral Unixmad foolishly invoked onto Graal, he then blatantly STOLE a domain name Graal.net from Owl Shimy which costed over 30$ US Dollars, and never gave it back to him and never paid him for the cost of the domain, he also threatend to sue Owl Shimy and kill his family although it was Unixmad which stole the domain from Owl Shimy, then around Graal1.3.1 he blocked off GServers officially and threatend to sue anyone that ran the former GServers, although they were released as "Freeware" and actually used to encourage people to use the GServers, this was a blatant attempt to monopolise , threaten, and intemidate that players that actually helped Graal and supported him, he then made claims he copyrighted "Graal" and would contact so called "Lawres" about anyone that used the name "Graal" or had "Graal Files" on there websites, although Graal was distributed as "Freeware" or "Shareware" and had no official software copyrights related to it, and that the name "Graal" was actually the name of a holy sacred golden cup used in some religion, and in that he has commited blasphemy against whatever religion has the so called "Holy Graal", then later on Unixmad fired SuperNick, because of his country and his origion and called him an American Asian slut, this was the first sign of racism on the part of Unixmad, towards Graal1.4.1 Unixmad was secretly unwrapping his sadistic plans, he then started claiming credit and claiming to own the copyrights to Graal, although Unixmad has done nothing but host some stupid weak as servers, and yet Stefan Knorr has done all the real work for Graal, and was the one to make ZeldaOnline , GraalOnline in the first place and has written every bit of codeing for the Graal Client , GServer, RC, ect, yet Unixmad the worthless pile of trash that he is steals all credit for Graal, then in February 2001, Unixmad and Antago release Graal2001 and the start of the "Pay to Play" system, now i have no problem with the fact that it is pay to play, the issue is when you PAY for something you actually expect to get the worth while of your money in this product, but instead they got a shittily made level generated land that was 99% empty, the NPCs were and are laggy as hell, and there were no quests, and there is only two shitty things today for hearts that suck so much i refuse to even call them quests, and to add to that about 40% of everyone that paid and gave Unixmad there credit card number NEVER got the accounts they paid 27$ or more for, and those that did clearly got chumped out by a cheap peice of crap that aint worth paying for, it sucked so badly that most people played on Graal Classic still, even those that foolishly paid for pay to play accounts, and in an attempt to "FORCE" people to pay for a shitty product they do not want against they're will Unixmad hired "Tyhm" to deface and ruin GraalClassic in an attempt to make it buggier and less fun than even Graal2001, about this time i was disgusted with Unixmad and most of the other admins and decided to downright turn against Graal and for the most part stop playing the peice of crap in general. People starting getting angry, complaining, asking for help, and asking for refunds, of coarse Unixmad gave noone a cash refund, and simply deleted and banned "PAID ACCOUNTS" of those who complained, asked for help, or asked for a refund these are PAYING CUSTOMERS, they have the rights of basic service that they PAID for, Unixmad promises pay to play players a quality product and customer service, but instead gives them a grade F product and ripps off his customers and delete they're accounts that they PAID HIM money for, his excuse? Credit card fraud, when infact at least 90% of the people he bans for credit card fraud pay legitamately with there OWN credit cards or pay via paypal by check, and yet Unixmad has stolen and used others credit card numbers to buy things for himself on several occassions, he also claims he needs pay to play money to keep Graal alive and running, yet there has been evidence that he makes at least 90% profit out of the monies he gets, and that he uses illegal porn ad banners and illegal cookie style web tracking and giveing email adresses of the players and even phone numbers of every player to spam and telemarketting companies without there permission, he even keeps personal player info, includeing email, adress, and phone number on unsecure servers which have already been leaked out, such info about people should not be on a public webserver accessable to the internet in anyway, then after all that Unixmad starts banning african american people, asians, koreans, and or people with images of people of that race from the Graal2001 forums and Graal itself, yet again they are paying customers and this is another sickening act of racism on the part of Unixmad and GraalOnline, and then even more disgusting is what Stefan posts on the Graal2001 forums, he makes several anti american, racist, pro terrorist, pro nazi, and pro taliban comments on that post and goes on and on several pages bashing americans, this post was offense, obcene, and disgusting to many people includeing myself . If all that does not make you sick to your stomache or dislike Unixmad yet, i am far from done, then Unixmad proceeds to illegally DDOS webservers of mafukie and make threats to him over the phone, and has phone assaulted me over 40 times a day between midnight and 5am, and has made threats to sue dozens of people, kill there families, and shut down innocent websites and servers, while hosting illegal stuff and doing illegal things himself with the use of his own wanadoo.fr servers, stuff which includes child porn, bestiality porn, DVD Piracy, DDOS Attacks, theft of copyrighted materials from gameing companies such as nintendo, Credit Card fraud, theft, spamming, phone harrassment, useage of illegal pirated corperate softwares, all this just to start the list of what Unixmad', Stefan, and they're servers are doing 24/7 for nearly 4 years now , anyone that likes Unixmad or thinks he is a good person even after all this is clearly a fool, everything in this document is the truth and why i hate Unixmad so much, if you like Unixmad after all these sickening things he does, then you are no better than a KKK or Neo Nazi member and should go kill yourselfs, i do not tolerate facists, racists, or nazis, they are all bad people, and Unixmad is one of the worst of the worst, and no person with any morales could tolerate or support such a person like Stephane Portha or Stefan Knorr. The people that spin, lie and bend the truth in support of Unixmad will always exist, but i will always reveal the truth about Unixmad, and EVERYTHING said in this document is true, despite what any assclowns try and say about this, and this supriseingly enough is only 1% of the bad things Unixmad has done, how some people even tolerate, none the less support such a bad person is beyond me... I fight against bad people like Unixmad, why? Because unlike many others in this world i actually care about other people, and i will do everything in my power to stop Unixmad from hurting Graal or its innocent players, many say i want to destroy and kill Graal, this is NOT true, i used to love Graal, i only wish to stop Unixmad's evil sadistic illegal actions and restore Graal to the great game it used to be when it was "for the players, by the players" , but if i have to destroy GraalOnline in exchange to stop Unixmad's tyranny, it will be regreteable, but sometimes some sacrifices have to be made for the greater good, lets just hope that Unixmad drops dead and that sacrifice never has to be made... I love Graal and lots of its players, and i wish to someday restore it to the grandness it once had, but bad people like Unixmad must be gotten rid of if that is to be achieved...

-  all tiles using that image are redrawn,
-  so preventing messed up screens when
-  entering a room with new tiles
- when weapon scripts do 'showani' then the
-  used ganis can do gani-scripting too
-  (e.g. for displaying nice effects on
-  status bar)
- server-side scripts can do
-  'triggeraction 0,0,clientside,weapon,params'
-  to directly trigger the client-side part of
-  weapon of the player - catch it with
-  'if (actionclientside) actions;'
-------------------------------
-New features/bug fixes in v2.2
-------------------------------
-Graal v2.2 is not really a major
-release, but is bringing better support
-for internationalization and online-
-tile-editing.
- support for multi-byte text in
-  signs - this is needed for languages
-  like Korean, Chinese and Japanese;
-  a Korean version of Graal Kingdoms
-  is planned
- server-side tile changes work on
-  gmaps too - with updateboard/2 tiles
-  can be sent to the client, saving
-  will be added soon
- new scripting function:
-  textheight(zoom,font,style) calculates
-  the height of text displayed with the
-  given zoom factor, font name and style;
-  textheight(1,,) gives the height of
-  the standard font used for showimg/showtext;
-  the style is a string with the letters
-  b (bold), or i (italic), the other styles
-  don't really make sense - the font name
-  and font style are generaly not influencing
-  the height a lot
- several little bug fixes
-------------------------------------
-New features/bug fixes in v2.19 rev1
-------------------------------------
- fixed a login problem on playerworlds
--------------------------------
-New features/bug fixes in v2.19
--------------------------------
-At the same time v2.19 and v3 are released -
-most new stuff has been added to v3 and we
-will also add more things to that version,
-while still maintaining the old client until
-it can be fully replaced. Both versions
-use the new starting screen, better
-compression and speed optimizations. There
-are also some improvements for scripters
-and several bug fixes.
-We have also released new development tools:
- graalshop (gani editor) can handle the
-  attributes 10-30 now
- the level generator produces .nw levels
-  and gmaps
- gif2mng has been updated - the generated mngs
-  are now compatible to the mng standard,
-  which is important for Graal v3 which
-  uses the mng standard;
-  you can fix old mngs by converting them
-  with gif2mng again - gif2mng can handle
-  short to long filename conversion now so
-  you can convert images by dropping them on
-  the gif2mng exe in the windows explorer
- there is the new dungeon generator which
-  has been used to make the dungeons on
-  Graal Kingdoms. You will need to make your
-  own inside tiles though to use the
-  generated levels in your playerworld
-General features:
- there is a new starting screen and
-  new server list to match more the style
-  of the website and Graal Kingdoms
- Graal uses a better compression, to reduce
-  download time and lag
- speed optimizations: several internal things
-  have been improved, mainly the search for
-  filenames and lookup of scripting variables,
-  so the game should run faster
-Script features:
- this. strings: the client finally supports
-  this.-strings; previously all strings on client-side
-  were attached to the player, irritating people
-  who have seen this.-strings in server-side scripts;
-  this.-strings belong to the current npc and
-  can be changed with the 'setstring name,value' command
-  and read with the #s(name) message code
- on servers with npcserver the client doesn't send
-  any strings except client. strings to the server anymore,
-  so you don't need to start the strings with local. anymore
-  (except when doing things for the classic server)
- ganis can use this. strings too, allowing string
-  manipulation things in ganis
- ganis can write to i,j etc.: they are handled
-  like local variables, so you don't need to store
-  temporary values in this. variables anymore;
-  before 2.19 you couldn't write to i,j etc. because
-  those were variables belonging to the current level
-  and could influence other npcs which should not
-  be allowed since gani scripts can be edited
-  by players;
-  level variables can still be read, but once you
-  write to them they will be handled as local
-  variable
- #p(x) in attached ganis: it's now possible to do
-  things like 'setplayerprop #P1,mygani.gani,param1,param2;'
-  where the script in mygani.gani can read the params
-  with #p(0),#p(1) etc.
- textwidth(zoom,font,style,text): calculates the pixel
-  width of a text with the given zoom factor, font and style
- #m(-1): all npcs can use the index -1 to
-  read their own string attributes like #m,
-  #Px, #Cx, not just showcharacter-npcs
- new message code #R:
-  #R(string1,...,stringx) selects randomly
-  one of the strings
-Bug fixes:
- the call stack is saved and restored
-  when doing the script command 'sleep',
-  which means it works inside functions now
- some problems were solved with global
-  npcs getting invisible when moving
- there is less memory use when walking on
-  gmaps, less images of npcs are hold in
-  memory
- the script command testplayer works on gmaps
-  now
- when a projectile lands then weapons get
-  the event 'actionprojectile2' instead of
-  'actionprojectile' to avoid problems of
-  mixing those ('actionprojectile' is called
-  when the projectile hits an npc or the player)
- grabbing showcharacter npcs and players is
-  enabled again, it was disabled before to prevent
-  harassement, but was problematic for script things
-------------------------------------
-New features/bug fixes in v2.18 rev1
-------------------------------------
- fixed file dialogs - it doesn't
-  freeze Graal anymore when clicking
-  on the folder box (Win95/98 problem)
--------------------------------
-New features/bug fixes in v2.18
--------------------------------
-This new Graal version is again mainly
-a bug-fix release. But a new Graal (v3)
-is in work which is a completely remake,
-coded in C++: it's more compatible,
-faster, works on different platforms
-and makes it possible to add more features.
- new password encryption: once you start Graal
-  and connect, the password will be stored
-  more securely
-Bug fixes:
- removed a memory leak when saving the history
-  (which is saved each time someone sends you
-   a pm or you send someone a pm)
- editing gmaps fixed: the heights of near levels
-  are saved correctly (modified-flag correctly set
-  when changing the height so that they are saved
-  when you click on 'save'),
-  and npcs are placed on the correct position when
-  a level is load that is part of a gmap which is
-  not loaded yet (e.g. when double-clicking on a
-  level in the windows explorer)
- in the debugger you can move the mouse over
-  text and commands without seeing new scripting
-  variables appearing in the variables-watch-list;
-  the content of the variables is displayed in the
-  caption of the debugger window, that's more fast
-  than showing a yellow hint under the mouse
- levels are pre-loaded when entering the server,
-  so you don't see heights changing when entering
-  Graal Kingdoms
- when opening the profile of a player and he is
-  online on as player account and RC at the same time,
-  then you see the stats of the player instead of
-  the RC
- the maps1-3 ganis are shown in more cases now,
-  but you might need to do some replaceani-calls
-  in case you don't want those gani appearing when
-  the player presses M
