I just throw in all staff as a matter of reasoning. I know they can't do anything, but they may have someone on their msn, aol (or whatever) who can :P

That's [cabbage] - the customer is not 'always right' - and people who come into a store thinking that deserve to get shafted by the employees and essentially told to leave. If management sides with the customer - get another job. Management which is bullied by customers isn't worth working for because utlimately you will always lose at the end of the day. I have argued with customers about the 'always right' line way too many times to remember and my managers have always backed me up. That's asuming what you are arguing is a case where they are definately wrong. Hell, if you're unsure about something - check first. Just don't let them push you around with attitude, otherwise you're setting yourself up to just have a [cabbage] day whenever it happens.

That's a nice list Joe - cheers. And good catch with the PSU, missed that one. OS, optical drives, etc - all covered. My current box is being converted into a file server when I get the new rig setup, so it's just a matter of sorting out the new setup :)

I'll raise you 4hrs to no staff at all (including crewbies, item researches, etc) visibly online for almost 7hrs. Problem isn't them being online it's: 1. Having mods in the first place 2. Those mods then doing their job when they are (I have an amusing story relating to that but wont post it publicly).

Meh. Unless they have a dispatch in Brisbane I can pickup from, I don't care :P

True, now for a mobo... http://umart.com.au/pro/products_listne ... &sid=22395 That'd take the total to.. just over 1900 or something close..

Depends entirely on the meal as to whether or not beer or wine should be used. Spirits is also acceptable under any circumstancs.

Liquor.

I'd be suprised if you can't turn off items. Melee had awesome customization in terms of rules, items and maps; I would expect Brawl to have a similar setup... actually it does now that I think about it... right down to character effects (metal, bunny hoods, etc).. I remember watching it on an E3 video.

price-speed trade off isn't worth it for a raptor. i've gamed on raptors before and struggle to notice a difference. and 600w psu you say... m'kay.. easy enough. just gotta find one which doesn't sound like a jet engine (hence my love of the phantom :P).

Oh, I'll be gaming on it. There's a reason I went with a SLi board and DX10 card ;)

- Asus M2N32-SLi Deluxe ($252.00) - AMD AthlonÃÆââââ¬Ã¾Ãââ 64 6400+ AM2 ($339.00) - ASUS Arctic Square Fan & H/S ($75.00) - ASUS EN8600GTSLN 512MB ($268.00) - DDR2 Corsair (4x1GB) ($399.00) - 2x Seagate SATAII NCQ 500GB ($177.00) - Antec P182 ($195.00) $1882.00 Right now I am stuck on a power supply - I do have an Antec Phantom... 500W or so, but I'm wondering if I should get another with a bit more juice. Either way I need to get a new one - either for the new build, or for my current PC if I leech the Phantom for the new system :-k I don't really have a budget - but I'd prefer to keep it under $2,000 - and before anyone says anything: yes 4GB ram and 1TB of hdd is required for what I do. Any other suggestions? I may have overlooked some compatability but it's a quick throw down of what I'm aiming at.

I'd prefer the one where Craiglowery has been shot and killed by the police rather than being given a ticket for being out past curfew.

Probably because everyone knows they will never beat you at high school pranks :P

you fail so hard its not even remotely funny. +11ty billion. Having the same name is where the original and the remake stop being the same movie.

I have to admit I didn't think India had it in them... hasn't exactly been smooth sailing for them lately.

Well to be blunt about it, the first post was about 2 sentances long and it's main focus was "I was out after curfew, got a ticket and i hate cops" there was no mention of how long after curfew he was out, of his mum, how far from his home he was, nothing. I'm starting to wish someone quoted the original post, then you'd be able to see what a douche he was about it to begin with.

And - given the addition to your story about being hand-cuffed and thrown into the police car, I'm willing to bet you didn't take a ticket with good grace, rather you got a rather [bleep]y with the cop.. and it was only then (when you showed agression) did he decide to step it up a notch. If you want sympathy - post everything that happened, rather than half-truths and selective [cabbage] like the first time. It still isn't complete, so I'm calling you made additional trouble than was required over something you could've contested the next day at the police station.

So wait - you were out past curfew, they give you a ticket, and you dislike them for it? Damn that's weak - don't want to get on their bad side, don't break the law, nub. /yourself

It's just an image set though, so I dunno why only 2 of the ah... like 40-something images would fail to load in one browser but not another :-?

I could bash out a half-arsed ladder system in... a couple of days *shrug*

I'd like to share your optimism, Abelmisi, but personal experience says that no mods/admins being online is not the problem.

Pokemon ended with Yellow / Red / Blue. +1

Hire Trapical ;)

For the sake of NOT having to wait on Trapical...
