File compression and decompression.

[Nagitof]

This is a well thought out idea, full of pros and very few cons, if you see a con make sure you keep reading, there are full explainations, examples, and key parts you MUST keep in mind.

Lets say you have a friend that just joind the game, and you want to give him a good firewall protect. We all know that when you start the bandwidth is useless on files bigger than 100 mb. So it gets hard to do. But what if there was a program that lets you compress the file to a lower size. When compressed it can not be used but can be uploaded onto what ever. Once it reaches the target it can be decompresses local or remote host so it can be used. The higher the compression version the faster and smaller the file can be compressed to. The decompression program will decompress it back to its useable size, the higher the version the faster it can be decompressed. These are like a two way user friendly programs, not for sercurity direct hacking, by that I mean just because the file was compressed by a higher compresser than the decompresser, that doesn't mean you can't decompress it, but the decompession process will take longer. Other than that this program will work the same way as any other pair programs. (e.g. encrypter to decrypter) Talking about the en/decrypter if the file is encrypted it can not be compressed, and if it is compressed and encrypted it can not be decompressed. When it is compressed it will take less time encryted and decrypted. What ever file that is compressed can not be researched ether.

It can be used like a safty in two ways;

1. Way one is that if you had a file-share virus on your hard drive (not an installed one) you are in risk of someone hacking you and installing it, what you can do is compress it and encrypt it so no one can use it right away, then you can easily upload to what ever, if it is uploaded to a public server then decrypted it and decompress it and install it, it took a while but it gets faster the more you upgrade the compression and decompression programs. If some one is doing it the same way as above but onto your Personal server then your in luck, this a two way user friendly program. Bacause it takes longer you can cancle and easily (because its compressed) be deleted from your hard drive. Still to be fair to those that have worked hard to get power, you must remember that the higher the the compresser and decompresser the fast it will be for those in power and the harded it is for those that are the victem.

2. The second way it can be used to be safty is mainly for the newer people that are joining where there are so many people that can hack them in seconds. Lets face it the only reason you hack some one else is upload virus, and steal software from people. The one thing they need more than anything else is bandwidth. Right now the thing protecting the new comers is that they have very little bandwidth making it hard steal software and imposible to put high level viruses on, but over time they upgrade the bandwidth and thats when the hackers attack. With the compresser and decompresser they have no need for bandwidth on the newcomers. The only files they'll need is the compresser and decompresser, then they go on to the a server go to the "Files / Programs" and look for one of the special programs of what ever file they want, compress it down load it and uncompress it, theres no need for high bandwidth. Now I know there are spam viruses that can run on, but only the low ones that you can easily stop.

Thats it for big instructions on how to use it. But there is one more hugh advantage for all and that is that bandwidth is exspensive.  You buy all this bandwidth for downloads and uploads but when you not using the bandwidth it goes to waste, but the compresser and decompresser requier CPU and RAM and very very little bandwidth. So when you don't need to use the compresser and decompresser there is CPU and RAM there free for use like reseach, missions and programs that are there to keep you more safe.

Summary

Does this is a great idea that I would greatly apprecciate if you put it in to great consederation.

The key terms that are there to make the two programs worth it are;
The higher compresser version the FASTER and smaller the files can be compressed too, other wise you do it the normal way,
It is to be a TWO WAY user friendly program, other wise it is unfair,
ALLOWS safty to its user, I wouldn't spent three hour typing it up then,
I went through all planing and balancing, so you the programers don't need to do as much.


If you have any oppinions, coments, and/or coplaints do not hesitate to state.

Dude you have way to much time.

[Nagitof]

I worked hard on this because I wanted to contribute to the game.

Yeah -pats- :3 it's ehh a so-so it would be nice though since it would add more things to be able to do in-game and seeing as though it's realistic you should add this just for the kicks.I support this because people who want to be able to transfer things quicker would be able to use this. And it adds another thing to be able to do in game! 

[Nagitof]

So I wrote that hugh report on why file compression is a good thing yet all you think is that it makes more things to do?

[Noseedam]

it adds thing too do, but at the same time look at the consequences, big players already have HUGE amounts of bandwidth on their side, and if it's compressed as well............ but i think that it COULD be a great idea, just needs some fine tuning!!!

and maybe implement the hide rules, only make it so it works on both sides of the scale

[BobbyBob]

no no it should be useful also 

[Nagitof]

You wanted a hide rule in there, sorry I forgot. The hide rule will be the same for an other program, you can hide then compress the file aslong as you have the unhide file the same or higher then the hide file used. Same thing viceverca for compressed to decompressed. But remember the hide or unhide file as well as all other files can't no be used is it compressed.

[Noseedam]

i was meaning the 0.2 limiter on hiding stuff :P

[Nagitof]

Im sry but what is the 0.2 limiter on hiding stuff.

[Noseedam]

read news & updates dude...............

[Nagitof]

So the hide rule you were talking about erlier will be in effect. I don't understand why you need to ask.

[Noseedam]

So the hide rule you were talking about erlier will be in effect. I don't understand why you need to ask.

i want it to be in effect for compression as well........... will balance it a bit

[Nagitof]

Yes, the hide rule would definetly be in effect. When I got the idea for this I made sure it was fully ballanced

Then we discuss in this thread instead, Ebolla. I think compressing and decompressing is a good idea. With some adjustments (adjustments are allways needed on an idea which isnt in use yet no matter how perfect it is) and Emi could draw another few players to the game.
