Cool!
I'm going to go download this now.

Edit: Just downloaded onto my calc now!

Cheers DJ! I hope you guys get to give this a try, especially if you have any interest in CALCnet.  Even if you have only two calculators (or together with a friend you have two), you can test out CALCnet2.2 with a simple 2.5mm I/O cable.  I've included NetPong v1.0, a simple CALCnet2.2 pong game, and a speed benchmarking program for your enjoyment.

Awesome!  It's going on my calc soon.   Thanks Kerm!

Also, do you like aeTIos's flashy DCS userbar in his and my sigs?

Do you mean about the fights that occured back in the days between communities or the activity in general? I wouldn't say that every single member like each other's sites/channel, because it's inevitable that someone will not like one and/or the other (eg: some of the banned Omni users like Nikky), but we do not get stuff like spam attacks and if something wrong happens, the person just tries to stay away from the problems for a bit.

If you mean activity, unfortunately United-TI activity doesn't seem to want to pick up again, Ticalc is a bit slower on news, MaxCoderz only has one single project going on, TICALCS.net is spambot-haven and Detacheds Solution forums are dead, but Cemetech/Omni activity are so high that it makes up for the lost community activity elsewhere. Also, Revsoft and TIBD are picking up again. I think Revsoft had like half of its entire year activity in the past 6 weeks or so.

Yeah true. The problem is that back then, around 2006-07, all people cared about in the TI community was freedom of speech. It didn't matter what cool programs came out, all that mattered is that people wanted to be able to say everything they want and how they want, even if it offends people and cause people to leave. As a result, everytime Omnimaga banned a troublemaker, that person started inter-community wars in #TCPA IRC channel and caused Omnimaga to be seen as the black sheep of the TI community. On Cemetech, there were lots of flame wars going on in 2006-07 when JPez was still around and on UTI, they had troubles as well. On MaxCoderz... well... you should go read the old Doors CS threads there...

Also, one thing that pissed me off back then is that when someone wanted to try something new, he got told that it was impossible and he should not bother. As a result, people did not try anything new anymore because people discouraged them from doing so.

I think many people learned their lesson from the 2008 lull.

Wha...? The best game in existence won't work well in Doors?? *Switches back to MirageOs*. J/k of course . I haven't noticed anything yet but I haven't gotten time to test CALCnet stuff thoroughly. Now that you mention it, though, I'll go check in a few mins.

Yeah I agree. I remember a few years ago it was TI-Files vs Ticalc.org and later Dimension TI/Calc.org vs Ticalc.org and with TI-Files, even an hacking attempt by a ticalc.org staff got involved.

Later it was mostly mentality clashes between communities that occured from time to time, because for example, a group of users on a site did not like our moderation policies and we did not like theirs, and there was also the Pure-BASIC vs Non-Pure BASIC/ASM  issue between MC and UTI, but I think most people including myself realized with the time that such fighting did nothing good to the community and moved on from that stuff to focus once again on calculators.

Also, I realized with the time that it is best to have different kind of communities around and different ways of thinking, to satisfy everyone who joins the calculator scene and also to bring more new ideas. I have bad memories from TIMGUL.
