I hope the next major update isn't the last.

Whats makes you say it might be the last one?!?!?!???!
Posted By: codemastr Re: waiting - 19/08/03 07:39 PM
Because people love to start rumors.

in this site i think 2 months ago khaled said in the next couple months there will be a new mirc out ... i think thats enough to say mirc is still being worked upon ...

** crosses fingers and hopes its soon

No. What makes me say that is he's been working on it for over a year straight. (Unless he took a vacation somewhere between then and now.) Maybe future versions will only be bug updates, with no new major changes. I'm not trying to start a rumour. I thought taking this long for this version means he won't be doing another one, or doing another one anytime soon, as in terms of MAJOR upgrades.
Posted By: codemastr Re: waiting - 20/08/03 08:25 PM
Yes he did take a vacation, and seeing as how Khaled has not expressed any idea of retiring, only that mIRC's development will continue, I don't really see how it could be anything but a rumour.
Posted By: Doomstars Re: waiting - 20/08/03 08:50 PM
Then that's your opinion if you think I was trying to make a rumour. I didn't claim it as fact or anything.

On another note, when did he take a vacation and for how long? Or is my concept of vacation different than what he did?

Or maybe Khaled does things besides mIRC (the horror!). If I'd been developing a program for 8 years I don't think I'd be working on it every waking moment of my life.

wow ur use of profanity makes u appear atleast 12 i hope to one day be just like u. In any event, khaled does not wok on mirc 24/7 the man has a life too. one i hope he enjoys. yes mirc is a great program but it is not the entire reason for khaleds existance. let the man enjoy life alil.

There are about 5 bugs I can think of offhand in mIRC, none of them serious.

Lazy? How many programs have you written? If mIRC is so bug-filled why not code your own IRC client since you obviously have all the answers.

You really are completely clueless.

There is NO need for abusive posts. As I have deleted these, I will delete any further errors in judgement I find. Continued abuse could lead to your posting priviledges being revoked.

Consider yourself warned.

The man has a personal life, I personally don't think it should matter to anyone but Khaled (and maybe Arnie) when he took a vacation, where he took it, or how long. Would anyone here like it if the whole world knew every last thing you did, when you did it, why you did it, and where you did it. mIRC is a well written program, and if he feels he needs to take a break from it to keep his sanity, or for what ever other reason, it is his own business. We're lucky that he ever released it to the public. If anything I feel that we should praise him for his work on mIRC, and let him have some privacy.

I was just wondering...
Where would one get pics of the first ever mirc?
Posted By: Raccoon Re: waiting - 21/08/03 09:39 AM
You can download old releases from sites like http://mirc.stealth.net/ and various other mirrors.
Posted By: sparta Re: waiting - 23/08/03 04:12 AM
hehe.. its fun to see the old versions. it gets me to think on when i first started to use mirc.. lol, the first script i ever tested was for 4.52 grin and then i thinking, what the h*ll am i still hanging online for? hehe, but i guess i ask my self that question in many years from now too smirk

eww mircx *shudders*
Posted By: Watchdog Re: waiting - 24/08/03 05:18 PM
How many downloads on that server contain backdoors?

Actually it would be easier to count how many don't.
