i do that in western north carolina! best buy FTW North Carolina poonages jo0 all (Central NC anyways... poo on the mountains :twisted: ).

I despise Black Friday. That's normally the day I try and stay away from the biggest parts of town :? . Too much traffic. Too busy ANYWHERE you go. Though I must admit, on the news not long ago I did see where 2 guys got in a fight over some kind of TV. It was in Winston Salem though (which is about 45 minutes away from where I live). According to the police reports, one of the guys saw the other one carrying it to the register. The guy wanted it. So he took off in a sprint and socked the guy right in the eye. Kinda funny if you asked me. The guy was arrested but let off with fines or something. And the one dude got a discount on the TV he was buying from the Wal-MArt :lol: .

Well this is basicly a question. I think I may have fried the remote wire. It IS possible, but I find it unlikely. The Amp is just fine. I even took it back and exchanged it and told them it didn't work :? . The wires I'm using to hook everything up is just some Hookup Kit I got at Wal-Mart for $20. The thing that pisses me off, is everything was working just fine until I touched the 2 wires together. Of course I didn't MEAN to do it though. Help? I rewired everything but still nothing. If I fried the wire what would I have to do? Buy a whole new kit? Then again, I may have fried the wire coming fromt he back of my CD player (the AMP wire thingy). If I did that, wouldn't that mean I'd have to buy a new CD player? Halp pl0z!

Didn't that cat catch a fly with chop sticks? A bit off-topic, but I found that cool :shock: . Sad. He is one of these actors that is a known unknown. I wouldn't have known (or cared) about who the dude was until you put Mr. Miyagi (sp?) in the title. Better of he is.

The first day, I met Rubbermaid. My first friend. He didn't really show me around, but he added me (and I him) and he'd help with any questions. He also gave me full bronze and an iron long + square. I trained at the cows for about 3 strength levels and 1 attack and defense levels. But the whole time I did this, come guy was buying the hides (at the time I didn't know why, but now I know it was for crafting) 15 gp each. And by the end of my first day I had uped a combat level, and made about 500 gp.

Can I ask why a p2per gives a dookie about what f2p has? Besides, f2p has other magic armor. Oh wait, no they don't.... members do because we pay for it how silly of me :roll: .

That's what makes Runescape origional. Well, one of the things. It isn't a "sneak past enemy lines and kill your opponent" or "beat king koopa and save the princess".... it's just a pure "do whatever the helly ou want" type of game. It does, however, favor the real world. Think about it. It has simple things like 'supply and demand', just like the real world does (take gas as an example). It's also a game that's "self-reliant". By this I mean if you don't the time to develope your skills, your not gonna go far. But by training/leveling up your skills, you excel in status and even your pocket.

I like this topic :? lol. How I brush my teeth, step by step: #1 - Brush. I was using those Crest Sensations (Cinnamon), but now its some kind of Collgate Luminous (or something). #2 - Listeren (spelling?). Always the cool mint :P . #3 - I use some kind of teeth whitener. I think its by Collgate, not sure. Its in a little tube, but you unscrew the cap (which has a brush on the end) and you kind of brush a little on your teeth. Its supposed to help them whiten after using it for a while every night. And there you have it. My 3 simple steps of cleaning my teeth every night. However normally its just a quick brush over in the mornings before school, but the above steps is how I do it at night. P.S - I know, I should floss more. I floss like.. once every month :roll: . But I figure with the whole mouthwash and brushing thing it cant be hurting my teeth THAT much. Besides I haven't had a cavity in a year and a half, and everytime I go get my teeth cleaned they say they look great so I don't much change my steps.

Phats aren't going anywhere if you ask me. Maybe a slight drop around the holidays, but nothing too dramatic. Then they will continue to increase. Think about it. The only reason party hat prices have ever died, is because of duping. Other than that, they stay fairly stable, or they rise. I remember getting my 5th pink party hat about 2 months before the big duping. That's when they were around 15 million. After the dupe, they plumited yes, but I knew it was only a mater of time before they went back up. It's really all about how the majority of the people act. If the price drops slightly over time, lots of people tend to get worried and sell their hat(s). Thus making the price drop lower. Eventually this stops, and they revert and start to try and buy BACK their hat(s)... which drives the prices up. Without a dupe, I don't see party hats crashing. And the way RuneScape is becoming, in 6 months I wouldn't be surprised if the party hats sale for ddouble what they are worth now.

I edited my post. Basicly to make you appear even more wrong than I did in my origional post :roll: . The only person who has wasted any time at all is you, another bummed out f2per, making a topic on how something that p2p has makes it unfair to you. Your complaints (not unlike most other f2pers on this type of topic) are informative, in the least, but are normally unwelcome and end in big flame wars. The only support you will have is that of other f2pers who think, "Oh man. He is teh right! I dont want ads! I mean, if I gotta have em give em to the p2pers too!".

#1 - Your recommendation is not needed. Considering the fact members have recieved 2 new skills within the past 6 months. Not only that, but plans for 'Carpentry' has already been hinted at and set in motion if I'm not mistaken. #2 - 1 big advantage of being a member, is not having those annoying little flashy ads around your game screen. There is nothing more comfortable and easier than to have all your focus on JUST the screen. Instead of stupid little "Smack the Penguin for a phree Ipod Nano oh meh fawkin goodn3ss!" flashy thing grabbing your attention. #1 - Why would "watching" a banner bring in the money? Chances are, the people who own the banners are paying Jagex weekly to let them have their banners there because it is good advertisment. What I'm trying to say is, it doesn't matter how many people are on for how long... Jagex gets the same amount of cash every week to host those banners. #2 - I could be wrong. And you could be right. But lets think. RS currently has 35 p2p servers. Hypothetically speaking, lets say that at some point in time, each server has 1k people on it. What's that come out to? 35,000 paying members on. Now of course, this number could be higher. We know EACH of those people payed at the least $5 every month. So in that ONE TIME that each p2p server had 1k people on it, we already know for a fact Jagex has made $175,000. This is for 1 month people... and this isn't counting the thousands of RSClassic members :roll: . afe to say no matter what Jagex gets for their Ads, it isn't near as much as they make off members. #1 - I laugh at you. I'm serious. You are thinking WAY too highly about Ads. If that were the case, Jagex would probably have Ads for members too. Oh wait. We pay to NOT have them. You don't actually think the Ads they have generates even half of what us members generates do you? If so, I pitty the way you think. Chances are, the Ads on f2p generates enough money (probably more but not much more) to pay for ya'lls f***ing 54 servers :x .

Man, Castle Wars is so freakin fun. Running around slaughtering each other without having to worry about losing any of your best items. Man its great! I wonder why I have it and you dont :? ? Oh wait, it's because I (basicly) pay to have Castle Wars... F2pers. Quit making topics like this. You don't contribute to Andrew Gower's pocket very much, so you aren't going to get anything. Good lord. Was it not that long ago you were allowed iron and steel arrows, and willow bows? Atleast its an update. Be thankful. Quit wanting anything special because you aren't going to get it.

Ugh. Bad idea. The cooking guild is fine where it is. Besides, cooking has always been a fairly simple skill. In RSClassic, you could easily get to 45 cooking. Then 45 to 50 might be a bit slower if you weren't loaded with GP. Then RS2 came out and it became even easier. Now that Cook X is out, its pathetic how easy it is. A lvl 10 could slaughter cows all day and bank the meat, then Cook X it all and get uber amounts of lvls really quickly.

I see what you are saying. But does it really matter? Slayer for example. 85 slayer takes a loooong time to get (for the normal player). Months of doing it just to hit level 85 is enough. Why have something at level 95-99? It's just gonna take you forever to get there, and it'll just cause watever special drop you get from that monster to be uber expensive. I think some new things could be incorporated. It'd be nice if there were maybe a new type of fish in the game. I know you have the Sea Turtles and Manatys (sp?), but they are obtained from a mini-game. Why not have there very own fishing spot (like sharks and stuff) with maybe a new peice of equipment to catch them with. I see what you're saying. But I, personally, don't see it as that much of a bother.

What kind of 3D are you expecting out of a game fully programmed in Java? I'll admit, a more 3Dish type of style WOULD own... but they've made new leaps and bounds with the game all things considered.

Yeah so you're ripping the image because you don't own it and you haven't got permission to use it by the artist who made it. See what I'm saying? Actually, GameRenders is a hard working and dedicated forum based solely on rendering images/parts of images, and posting them for public use. Good try though :? ?

The best advice anyone can give you, is to do the website yourself. *Points at the 'Web Page Maker' on the toolbar in the picture and chuckles* :roll: . You're neve going to be able to make a good website using crappy little programs like that. Just figured I'd let you know that.

Ok. Long ago, I stopped liking Dragonballz. However, I was looking on BYOND ( http://games.byond.com ), and I came upon an MMORPG called Dragonballz Elysium. Oddly enough, it's kind of fun. It isn't anything big though. You choose your race, hair style, hair color, skin color, male/female, and whether you are Good or Evil (important desicion). There's no plot to the game. It's pure leveling, along with a wide open PK system. Basicly, sayians are the best choice. Other races work too, but hey don't really get any good until later transformations (which could take a long time to get to). I chose a full blooded Sayian. The transformation requierments for them are: SSJ - 75k PL ASSJ (Ascended SSJ) - 250k PL SSJ2 - 500k PL SSJ3 - 1.5 million PL SSJ4 - 5 million PL Mystic - This can be obtained by pulling the Z sword and then talking to Supreme Kai. However this isn't too fun. Once you become Mystic, it's perminant and you can't go any other transformations. It's more powerful than SSJ, but not as powerful as ASSJ :? . For right now, I'm 750k PL with SSJ2. I find it fun. The only down side to this game, is that if you aren't poweful, you aen't gonna be able to do to much. I'm SSJ2 with 750k PL, and at my max power level, I'm no match for quite a few people. This means gathering the DBs is pointless since I'll just get slaughtered. It also has some alright graphics. Pretty simple stuff, but still good graphics. Here's a picture: Ok, so I'll quit talking about it. I'm bored, and hardly anybody on it right now, that's why I'm posting about it. If you want, head over to BYOND (link is at top of this topic) and download the HUB (so you can play all BYOND games). If you want to try Elysium, go here: http://games.byond.com/hub/HantTeath/DragonballElysium

#1 - People who don't like renders (images)... that is your desicion :? . I can't stop anyone from complaining about them. #2 - The sig overall, doesn't look good. Oddly enough, that as really my goal :? . Grunge sigs, in my opinion, aren't supposed to look real good (maybe its just me). #3 - I added brightness and contrast :roll: . I even did it twice. If you think THAT looks bad, you should have seen it before the contract/brightness :wink: . #4 - Pixel stretch... yup. Tacky fonts... the grungist and crappiest I had. Anti-asliasing... wtf :shock: (I R NEWB)? Thanks for atleast replying to my signature. Normally when I post, I get about 50 views and no replies :roll: .

Meh, took a shot (in the dark, upside down, while fighting a monkey) at a grunge signature. Golly gee if I just don't hate those :evil: , but I needed the practice. C/C or a Rate would really make me happy :oops: .

It's not bad. It looks lik you threw together a grunge background with some different colors, then added a ripple effect :? , or atleast that's what I think it looks a bit like. It isn't bad at all, don't get me wrong, I'm just giving some C/C is all :wink: . If I were you, I'd have it look a bit more "grunge", with a lot less "ripple" (if ripple is what it even is).

*Looks up in horror as the media market board becomes flooded with shops* auch :shock: i wouldn't want to see the market sink at that level je deteste sigs+images (not to mention 99% of all time those images are illegal) my uncle is a 3D artist and he helped making the cut-scenes in Kill-Zone actually he did moste of the cut scenes and i know that he would hate it if he knew (i think he does) people used the work he made for there "signatures" and even selling them. come on pretty close to all signatures with images pasted on them are crap period. Hey, thanks for your opinion. Sadly, I don't care :? . I asked that nobody start with there semi-flamming thoughts on images/renders, and how they think it is ripping and bad. But of course, I can't stop the people who dissreguard my request(s) from posting. Just letting you know I could care less what you think on the matter, and I will continue to use/post signatures with images in them. :) EDIT: Did I sound a bit harsh in this post? Welp, sorry. I'm stinking tired of people such as this guy, bursting in on people's topics. Especially since I ASKED for nobody to post anything like what he posted. You're probably thinking, "well it's his opinion, he can post it!"... good for him. I'd rather my topic not be wasted with opinions like these. All we are doing is using the images to hone our Photoshop skills, and to make our sigs look a little better than they do WITHOUT the images. People obviously know we didn't actually make the images, so we are doing nothing wrong. End of story.

And your's is much better? :roll: . But on-topic. It isn't too shabby (for a first try). The text is god aweful :shock:, lol. It needs to be blended into the picture. It also wouldn't hurt to remove that white oval thingy. Other than that, it's a very good first try.

Like to use images as your focus point in your sigs, like in mine below? Well look no furthur! All these images (renders some may call them, though I dont think that is the correct term) are already cut out for you to use without any work needed to be done to them at all. http://photobucket.com/albums/y132/UG_renders/?start=0 I know some of you have your dumb little "oh meh gawd you are teh using an image that is teh isnt yurz! you ripp0rz!"... spare me :roll: . You don't like to use images in your sigs, that is all fine and dandy, we who DO use them don't need to be hounded about it :? . P.S - These were NOT cut by me. In fact, I dont have a clue who did them. I simply found this website, peed my pants, and thought I'd share with any of you. P.P.S - The background are transparent. So just save the picture, and when you open it up in PS, it'll be JUST the picture.

Thanks for the replies. As of now, I'm trying to hone my skills in photoshop. I want to be a pro at it, before I move on to bigger better things. Unfortunatly for some, this means I often use images in my sigs as my focus point. It won't last forever, rest assured, but for now and probably a good while I need to be using them. I would like to throw in some 3D renders as a focus point, but that will come another day :wink: .
