Since people are complete idiots now... let me fill you in.

Sorry for the retards. Basically, the community went through a dying period. Right now, it seems like it's at the bottom of the bottom, but high level coders (such as yourself) have started coming back and developing again. Jack (Korvacs) has assisted the Love2Hate team (a classic Conquer 1.0 server), Chris (pro4never) returns at times to help out and see how things are, CptSky has created a C# library for core elements in Conquer programming, and I've learned C# as well and been developing as the first, legal server approved by NetDragon (yes, I'm finally gloating, deal with it people). There's also Roy (InfamousNoone / Hybrid) who's been developing a sever again called "Conquer Server V3". He's in charge of the Conquer Online Underground group (which is dead... I'll revive it soon with my work). Ultimation is also a leader in the underground. KraHen has been working on hooks (which is cool), so has ImmuneOne (which has done exceptionally well). Sorry if I'm leaving a few people off... it's hard to keep track of everyone and mention everybody.
As far as sources go - all **** except for Chris's Albetros source. Conquer-SX is the worse source there is but every ****** on this forum says it's great because it has features (which are incorrectly implemented). Impulse came out with a source on patch 5165 which I recommend everyone to. You can find out about most sources here just by going to my thread (and reading my signature):

. And yah. There's not much development anymore. The people who are developing are keeping it all to themselves (like I am) because people just leech things now and sell them to people. It's pretty gross.
Welcome back.
