Title: 2 stupid questions...
Post by: jake28jake on May 16, 2003, 10:30:40 pm
1) about this message board. i know that the log in system was messd up, and i saw, read and followed the instructions on the main page. but for some reason, i cannot log in on my original user name (jakejake28) and i had to re-register. i went through the process somewhere between 15-20 times to log in, but could not w/out re-registering. please help me.

also

2) i know that the e-stik is a good 4-way stick, used mainly for rotating for Q*bert, but how does it function in 8-way. not excessive 8-way like marvel vs. capcom but more like the simsons or tmnt. is it decent.

if any1 can help me, please do. thank you in advance.

I had to go into my browser's settings and junk all my "www.arcadecontrols.com" cookies and start the login process again to get the problem solved back when it did it to me.

Might be worth a try.

I have no idea how the E-stick works, but I'm on the edge of my seat to find out.

If you use IE:
I *believe* you can go on a site by site basis as far as cookies go - if you get the ! at the bottom of the IE browser - right click and accept cookies from this site.  That way you don't have to set your entire security to a lower level.
