FFR Multiplayer Socket Server Update ..

Posted in FFR Multiplayer on June 21st, 2006

Well, some of you guys may love this, and likely some of you will hate this. As you know, we have done some updates to “FFR Multi-Player Music Game” to get some of the more obvious exploits out. Yes, it is certainly hard to find everything, but we are doing what we can.

For the sake of our server performance .. we have nailed down some of these bugs. For those of you that hate exploiters, you will likely cheer with glee. The exploiters however, will likely bleat in dismay (some will even show themselves for who they are in comments of previous posts … but go unnamed).

In addition to the cleanup .. and to further combat spam and associated spammers.. we have implemented some new functions to the socket server, that specifically a role of a new FFR Multiplayer Moderator. You will likely notice that as things go forward, more mods will be added to help keep the multiplayer chat room all nice and user friendly.

If you feel you may be up to the task shoot a comment in here, weather the likely flames and let us know what you guys think overall.

Finally, we have a change to the FFR MultiPlayer Scores. The latest thing in MultiPlayer Scores in the Top 50 section is that the scores shown are from the most recently active users. Simply stated, this means that these high scores are from users that have been active in the last 30 days.

So all you folks that have been braggin’ about those monster scores you had 6 months back, better pony up if you intend to keep your name up in lights.

More soon .. FFR Staff and Tinkerers

  1. Hey, I’m up for a mod job. I’d like to hang out in the multi chat and watch what goes on in there.

  2. Spectacular.

  3. I’m assuming you guys will get flocked with MP mod requests, but in case you don’t, I could do this. The added stuff sounds awesome.

  4. It may seem strange, but I am a moderator of another chat area. Personally, putting all my nonsense aside, I can be a good moderator.

  5. They already had applications sent to them months ago.

  6. When are we gonna get the playlists online because i’ve had to stay away from multiplayer without keys going down, i’m no good with up.

  7. i think i could be a god mod

  8. good* sorry

  9. I’m a good mod cause i’m young

  10. You’ve probably gotten tons of requests for mod jobs already. I’d be glad to help out

  11. you see the offers here so far guys ..

    We have not developed a huge list yet .. waiting to see the overall responses in here.

    Lets see how it goes .. as the whole team is interested to see the overall response.

  12. Hey just posting and saying that I’d be up to the challenge of a moderator position. Contact me back :)

  13. I think I would make a good mod.

  14. lol i love being a mod :P make people stop bickering bout all that bad stuff oh right yah i wud like to be a mod too please lol :P sooon theres like only gonna be mods lol

  15. Overall I would think that Experience and seniority would matter the most and would be key in becoming a mod. However, including myself, I would like to wish us the best of luck.

  16. lol wow peeps take this reaally serious with their speeches lol

  17. Uh, I think we have been abandoned.

  18. lol poor Laugh but yea…. I wouldn’t mind haveing some mod powers i mean i play this everyday *like most* i’ve been here a year and a half *or so it says*, and I like to you the Noob Beating Stick :D , hehe *beware?*… anyways yea us people who want to be mods do put up some good speeches and best luck to you all.

  19. srry for the double post and i guess the second time i’ve metions this but.

    1. 2766927 Biff_tech / mc2w X-Dreamer Final Cut 436945 / 390205 6/21/06 is the stats of the last game i played right obviously I won, yet my mp bar decreased by half, the guy was a lvl eight i was lvl 12, but i dont think i should go down for winning????
    2.And i don’t think anyone answered me but it’s either my web browser or somthing cause the judgements seems to have gone up which basically means i can’t get averages which means it makes it hard for me to combo sometimes and yeah starting to piss me off…..*again PA is still fairly good*

  20. hey biff….firefox works the best…i dont know if thats what you are using but internet explorer has been really gay to ffr…so if your not using firefox, your browser might be the problem.

  21. If people are using seniority as reasoning for their mod requests, they fail. I’ve been here for infinity years.

  22. I’ll do it if you want me to, If not that’s fine, just putting it out there.

  23. I’d volenteer, but I’m like, never in the MP lobby. -_-

    But either way, the updates in general are awesome.

  24. id be a good mod im 19 years old

  25. I think I might be a good mod, I’m on FFR multiplayer like everyday so I see a lot of the things that go on.

  26. I never knew there was a top 50 for multiplayer, so maybe I’ll work my way up someday. But until then, I’ll just have fun trying to compete :P .

  27. I think I would be a great mod considering I am on FFR constantly and I am on the net most of the time also. I have been here for a while and I would be pretty committed if I got the job.

  28. Hey I think i would be a good mod i have been playing in multiplayer ever since i started i think im up to it i was a mod inthis one chat a while back..

  29. I know i will be a very good mod… You just have to give me a chance :)

  30. I found an exploit.

    Here’s what you do:

    Login to the game as a Anonymous. You will see that you have FFR credits there due to the fact many people are playing online as Anonymous. This means you can transfer those credits to any account you wish.

    And yes, I admit I did take advantage of this a couple of times until I found out it was a bug.

  31. I would happily volunteer as an MP mod. :)

  32. ^
    same

  33. I would love to assist in monitoring the multiplayer lobby. Just let me know so I can spend more time in there :)

  34. I’d like to be be a mod, I’ve only been playing ffr for a bit more than a year, but I think I could do the job.

  35. I just lost approx 8500 credits.

  36. sup

  37. Being a mod is ok with me… I just need to know what do I have to quallify in, is it just chat stuff or is it all the advanced Java stuff… im not really good at that. Anyways, what ever suits you guys, if you need a spare, im here.

  38. I love mods!

  39. I’m still not getting any credits. When are you gonna fix THAT one guys?

  40. hyperskillz is right yall should fix that

  41. double post adding to that if u do it it wont let you unlock songs in seacret with the credits u transfer

  42. guys I’ve never seen before are asking to be mods, hopfuly you guys are giving better consideration to the ffr vet’s, Shash was a good choice for first mod, and I think LD said there was a couple more allready picked to do it, but heh, how many of them are on ffr(some part of it anyway, be it the forum, the game/mp chat or the video chat) every single morning(for like 1-2hours), most afternoons, and every night?

    =p

  43. I would like to be a Mod because i’m always in there and i tell people to stop swearing and stuff. i strongly think that there should be a girl Moderator even if it isn’t me, thank you for reading this and i appreciate it. oh and btw, i’m on almost every hour i can be! thanks! bye! cya l8r! lol

  44. Hi! If I was a Moderator that would be awesome!! lol, and I too think that there should be a girl Moderator. There are only girls that I see. lol. Well, have a nice day and I think that Shash is a cool Moderator! He helps everyone!! lol ok l8r!! ~sky~

  45. PLZ I WANNA BE A MOD SO I CAN STOP THE BAD PEOPLE!!!!

  46. BTW IM VERY ABLE 2 COUNT ON SO IF I AM A MOD THE BAD SPAMMERS WILL BE NO MORE.

  47. HEY im on almost everynight and if u need a few mods i am available. though you probably get a lot of requests. I would be a reliable moderator

  48. Hey. I’m just dropping a comment to let you guys know that I’d like to help moderate the FFR Multiplayer. That’d be all :P

  49. Hey I think MOD’s are a great idea, they are very helpfull too!
    shashakiro is a great MOD I like him.I really want to help moerate the FFR Multiplayer because alot of people break the rules and say there 11,12,10 years old and they keep asking people personal questions that’s none of their business.Thank you that is all I want to say

  50. I believe I am a perfect candidate for a FFR Multiplayer moderator position.
    I am 16 years old, female, from New York. I spend over six hours a day on FFR, where I’m found in the Multiplayer Lobby. I’ve watched FFR progress from new layout to new changes over time. I’ve had my oldest username, egonomic, for 2.97 years, which as you can see, shows my experience in the changes of the site. Ever since Multiplayer came out, I’ve been active to stop spam before the moderator appeared, and most, if not all of the people who visit Multiplayer has seen me or has talked to me. I’ve been on this username, n3v3rl4nd, for 0.54 years, all of it spent in the Multiplayer Lobby and occasionally versing a participant.
    FFR has been giving to the people all this time, and I hope to be the one chosen to give back to FFR. Shashakiro is a great moderator, but I hope to join a moderator position as well, and as you can see, I’m good for the job! Thank you for taking the time to read this! Bye!

  51. hey i would just like to say i would really like to be a MOD and sence im on this ffr multiplayer lobby a lot like 15 hours a day hehe i would make a great MOD so please coonsider

  52. This has nothing to do with any of this, but whenever chaosrock08 and I send each other challenges, neither of us get the message back telling us if we won or lost. The number of credits changes accordingly, but that’s the only clue we get telling us that the challenge was accepted by the other person. If you could do something about this, that’d be great!

  53. hey :P lol tooo many mod applications but neverland sounds da best.. hey i know neverland.. but thats a dif story lol uuuh i have 196 credits but like each time i gain mor it dont add and like at the screen thingy my total doest go up its sooo annoying i should be at like 210

  54. I’d like to be a MOD. I’m in the multiplayer lobby a lot anyways so while im there why don’t i actually get something done. Please consider me for a Moderating Job in the Multiplayer Lobby please. I’d be glad to help out. Thanks.

  55. hi im cloud05 btw i 4got 2 say im on everyday. so id be perfect.

  56. Hi. Okay this might sound strange, but i have always wanted to be a MOD. I am always in the multiplayer lobby and its ridiculous sometimes the way people act. It would be great to do this! If you need someone please ask me because that would be great!
