They come because I invite them, and those that stay, stay because of the literacy and quality of conversation. They don’t have a connection with Cecil and I barely even mention the books, etc, other than the origin story. I get feedback, and for those who like this place and register, their comments eventually comes down to this: They find the SDMB to be a place where they, too, can be literate and expect a literate response, something they cannot find elsewhere on the internet.ĭozens of people have told me throughout the years that they are impressed with the amount of well-written user content, and the fact that the SDMB attracts people like Neil Degrasse Tyson and Hayes Brown (of MSNBC)… as well as the many quality ladies I have introduced to this place in the past 3 years (hi!)… is a testament to this Board’s purpose and uniqueness. Just be me.Īnyway, the point of the above is I talk about the board in my real life, on SM, etc. Likely because back in the 1990s when ‘anonymity’ was one of the drivers of the early internet, I had already been doxxed on a Prodigy board and I figured that I might as well be myself, saving myself a lot of hassle in trying to keep two separate personalities - my real life self and my internet self. I mention this because, unlike most here, I very open about my activity on the SDMB. In the Discourse era I have 1 thread with over 1k outside readers, 2 other threads with 300+ outside readers, and 28 threads with 25+ outside readers (31 threads in total). Then Discourse happened and it tracks this for me (kinda) so I don’t do that anymore except on high-activity tweets. For years, dozens and hundreds of tweets and fb posts and etc. One tweet got over 500 clicks to the SDMB, another would get 6, another would get 50, etc. Pre Discourse days I would track the number of visitors myself- Twitter, for example, tells you how many people clicked on a link placed in your tweet, for example. I do it to people I know in real life (family, friends, girlfriends and wives), on Twitter and Facebook, etc. Yes i have searched the DDO forums that listed to try and play with the compadability settings.I have introduced people to the SDMB for 20+ years now, especially over the past 6. Tv and Nividia control settings solutions do not help due to the "smartness" of the Tv which fights me and changes its settings when my Nvidia is not set up the way it currently is.įor a while now the DDO launcher/updater was the size of a standard playing card, i found out that setting DNDLauncher.exe Properties>Compadability>Change high DPI settings> High DPI scaling override System (enhanced), turns it into a scaled up version appropriate for the screen size but may not fix the small text.ĭo not mess with dndcliant.exe nor dndclient_awsomium.exe it can break the launcher.ĭirect x not being detected has 2 solutions re-installing it and selecting a different directx in settings, when rapidly swapping between DDO clients the directx detection can mess up swapping your directx to another fixes it and iso can restarting your computer.Ĭannot find a way to fix it, being forced to play on 1920x1400 which works on all 3 DDO launchers since i wanted to beta test the 64 launcher and there is no solution i can figure out ill just text the launcher on that setting. Will post updates on fixing the 1920x1080 problem and any other solutions i come across: One of the reasons for playing on 1920x1080 is due to the lack of UI scaling and that the graphics card doesn't throw a tizzy due to the lack of multicore support on this program. after i tried using the legacy game Client it did not revert to as it was before sleecting the 64 bit and i am trying to fix that. I saw that the 64bit Client was launched and i was playing on legacy/ After swiching to 64 it cut out on 3 sides of my 1920x1080 on my 4k "smart tv". I am just going to list problems I have had/am having with DDO's screen scaling.
