I was reading books with swearing and violence in primary school :-? We actually watched a few movies (based on natural disasters) in grade 6 just because they were somewhat relevant to the current topic. Also, anyone who replicates anything from an entertainment medium wasn't right in the head to begin with. It's a copout to blame anything but the person on their actions.

:uhh: Since you're using C++, I suggest you dabble with the Clarity engine... http://members.optusnet.com.au/dfreya/files.htm It's a simple game engine, but if you go through all the code that's up at the moment (incrementally) and do some of the assessment (yes it's a uni subject) it does teach you everything you need to know to make a basic side-scrolling game :)

And what's with all the runesmithie hate? :uhh:

Generally others. I've self-sacrificed to make others happy before. And it's not that rare for me to do it either.

I've promised a friend of mine quite a bit lately. And she knows well enough that I'll deliver. Even if they are somewhat odd promises to have made :lol: I don't usually say "I promise" in regards to anything, friends just know me well enough that I'll eventually do whatever I said I'd do.

Long story short: Chris posted a bad picture I got banned for being involved Chris got banned for posting it The person who suggested chris post it didn't get banned

those terms are too common. Use something less broad.

There are items of assessment worth 1% of your final grade for some subjects I take at uni, and people have passed for turning up to one of them, and others have failed because they didn't. Every mark can be the difference between one grade and another. If there are any disputes as to results - they should be questioned.

Personally, I hope for a simple death for Bond. Like he walks around a corner and gets shot by a guard. Kinda like how 002, it think it's 002, is killed in The living Daylights :P Just finished parachuting hadn't even landed and was shot in the back :thumbsup:

Yea, you can also add me to the list of killjoys - for the same reasons as Matt.

on the subject of BF2, what is everyone's UID or name? :mrgreen:

Probably because "short stuf" and short_stuf are two different things :uhh: If you search by user it is going to use the EXACT STRING. So if there is no user with that exact username, of course it is going to return nothing. And short_stuf: What kind of searches are you doing?

I don't own Special Forces, I've only played it for a few hours at The Bunker (LAN center in the city). Sorry.

Now I follow you - you just started going on about this chick with no reference to anything and I was fully "he's gone nuts" :ol:

What the hell? :-s

Good thing it's hard to rip any of my stuff off \

I know I most likely wouldn't hesitate to kill someone.

Will have this in two weeks:

Unless you're using really obscure drivers, Windows will get them for you - or you'll have an install cd for the hardware.

Same here.

And then there is this... http://atinyglimpse.ytmnd.com/ Can't say I really thought about that much, but damn

2 years, 401 posts. LURKER :P

Yea. Us humans are so fragile. Wish to be a croc or snake sometimes. Those suckers can go for 6 months without a meal :ohnoes:

Pft, you can smell butane as well. Other than that, interesting read... and this made me lol:

Yep. Tests on cats have resulted in peculiar results. The cats were woken up every 5 minutes when they fell asleep and due to a lack of sleep (and dreaming) they first became insane, then died. btw, you can suffer starvation for over a hundred days if you have sufficient liquids to drink. There are people who were stuck in the ocean on a raft and survived over half a year with only purified water, no food whatsoever. Yea, I mean deprivation of foods and liquids. So it's technically dehydration that gets you after the two weeks or so.
