    Interruptions

    Does anyone else get annoyed when you are playing flashflashrevolution and then some other program interrupts by throwing something in the foreground which then removes focus from ffr, which then causes you to fail whatever you were attempting? Because I know I do.

    My main culprit seems to be PidginIM although other culprits can be firewall or antivirus programs trying to update themselves.

    This is no fault of ffr.

    Anyway, just a vent.

    Happens to me all the time. Also when the firewall or antivirus programs try updating themselves makes my game lag when I'm doing great. It's so annoying.
    Removed a .gif image so your total signature size isn't well over 1MB. Keep this in mind for the future.

        Re: Interruptions

        the game lags like crazy for me so i cant play it anymore.
        and that's with no program running in bg or anything.
        so i permanently switched to sm and viola runs perfectly.

          Well, you could reconfigure these programs that seem to be getting in the way.
          - Turn off the automatic updates (just don't forget to do it manually)
          - Set away messages during pro longed play periods.

            This happens all the time for me. I usually just close down all other programs while I'm play FFR, or any game for that matter.

                  The best part ever is if you message someone and then you get a response of

                        AUGH. SAME.

                        Pidgin windows take priority, so when I have no tabs open, the first person to IM me takes priority over FFR. I just open a convo window now when I'm FFR'ing, even if I've no intention of messaging the person, just for the sake of not getting a random unfocus.

                        I was FC'ing GGC at 1200 combo with 1 good, when I got IM'd. I was pretty pissed.
                        Why would you put that in your signature? You've lost your signature rights for a month. (You'll get them back on March 10th, 2012.)

                          Every now and then I'll get these random extreme itches. Like something is chewing on my skin.
                          xD
                          It usually just turns out to be my imagination, or whatever.
