  1. Absolutely brilliant, Blue. Not only does this reflect my own beliefs, you've made the thread in such a great way. I look forward to this discussion greatly :)
  2. I don't want to drag this into a religious slagging debate, but I'd like to hear what Christianity/Islam or any other religion's, represented here on tip.it, view on other life. Did your God create only this Earth with life or is there a general acceptance there could be other planets with life, and are there any connotations taken from that?
  3. Ah many happy returns! A big birthday high five coming your way! (>'.')>*high five*

  5. What are you noobs talking about? Al Gore invented the internet with a spanner and a bowl of Frosties ^_^
  6. Depressingly, no. But there's plenty of time. But let's forget about that and congratulate the future bride to be!! \ \ EDIT: Husband!! I mean husband!! >_<
  7. To be honest mate, it's totally naive and impractical to think that if all that money was not used on the projects, it could help with 3rd world debt or something. They'd just find a new toy to play with. So, why not space? It does give scientists, the greatest species of men, a lot of potential for discovery and breakthrough.

  9. I don't think it's the concept of little green men but I th...wait...deja vu or an actual duplicate thread? (Save my sanity someone :()
  10. If you can enlighten me as to when I actually said that, then by all means.
  11. That has to be one of the dumbest things I've ever read. How will I know if I'll like it or not, if I don't read it?
  12. Busba, instead of complaining that the Editor "ignored" your criticism, why don't you buckle down and write an article for us? We always accept well-thought out and well written pieces, so why not try your hand at it? And I'm sorry if you think your comments were ignored. They were not. Just because we didn't jump and change everything to the way you'd like it to be, does not mean that we ignore our users' comments. On the contrary. We take all the comments we receive very seriously indeed, and where we feel it's warranted, we implement changes. We have over 100,000+ users in our Community, and not all of them agree with you. So as I said, if you have an article you'd like to submit, we'd welcome it. Or why don't you suggest some topics? I'm certain the Editor would enjoy receiving some different topic ideas... Notice, did I say my criticism? No... Notice how people came with the same criticism of their own accord in the previous thread? Evidently not... Have I ever made reference that I could do a better job? Holy jumping conclusions Batman! I just think the people of this community deserve better. I mean, if you're going to treat them to an article...an article (seeing as you like bold so much, I thought I'd point that out to you)...every week, I feel it should be something of quality and not something some Joe Bloggs makes every day on myspace. Heaven forbid I feel this way, and slap my wrist for posting an opinion. If that doesn't constitute as constructive criticism then I apologise, although I didn't feel up to typing the same points again...and again. Just do me a favour before you go jumping down my throat again, I do believe it is not only my opinion, but shared by a number of community members. And my competence in writing articles doesn't come into it, for example: if something you made was sub-par, do you go around flaming people because they can't do better? I'm not claiming to be the next Orwell, it just seems that tip.it are trying to pass off The Editor as his successor; a place on the front page, brand spanking new threads etcetera. When, to me, it's evidently not a good standard. And yes, that is my opinion and I don't worry whether it's shared or not, I believe I'm allowed to voice it.
  13. Nice to see that all the criticism from the last article was comprehensively ignored.
  14. Good God, Ohio, why?! This is exactly the kind of material that would be made to be hilarious on Seinfeld.
  15. * are you talking about? 5-0 in pool play. Come on. We went on to go 7-1. We sucked? We had the youngest team in the tournament. Our team looked much like the 2005 draft class. Dwayne Wade, Elton Brand, LeBron James, Carmelo Anthony. Don't worry, we'll win it in a few years hands down. Dude, his country is Lithuania >.<
  16. You got it. By the way, I should warn you about an email. It claims to be paypal asking you to check something with your account, and then asks you to click a link to log in. You can tell if this is a scam these ways: It addresses you as "Dear PayPal member" - when PayPal email you, they always address you by the names you submitted. If you check the URL of the link provided, it does not go directly to PayPal.com Just look out for that one.

    How very mature of you. Now, if you would kindly put the petty flaming aside and leave us to talk about football?
  18. iSketch is so much fun I get giddy ^_^ So, my browser choice is for them. Good work Api :thumbsup:
  19. A very good point. Kofi Annan is a really nice man, but no-one takes a damn bit of notice to him because he and his organisation are practically powerless.
  20. Well, you've accepted your punishment and seen the error of your ways, and are now positively rectifying it. Good luck to you!
  21. I think a big factor in dieting is mental stability, and you strike me as someone who certainly has this. Keep up your good work!

    So many throwbacks to Ardilles and Villa it's uncanny. Apparently, WHU activated a ̢̮â¬Å¡Ãâã7.5M release clause in the Corinthians' contract for Mascherano. Such a clause was dismissed by the management, but was actually kept. The reason for the disclosure to West Ham is because Media Sports Investments, the company who owns the rights to the players, leaked the information to WHU, due to the continuous links with a takeover at the club. Such a relationship also softened the ground for Tevez and subsequently, I wouldn't be suprised if a takeover is launched relatively soon. Skeptical over the 'clause cover-up'? Don't forget, in May, Kia Joorabchian, the president of London-based MSI, said: "Tevez will leave Corinthians if a team pays the contract's release clause, which is between ̢̮â¬Å¡Ãâã69m and ̢̮â¬Å¡Ãâã83m." - after Chelski speculation. I highly doubt that a club like West Ham, having only just recently got back to the Premiership and it's money, and being involved in a low-key European competition, would have that money to throw about on one player. A major coup for Pardew, but he won't be sitting so comfortably in his seat for a few months. I suspect, if the takeover goes ahead, Media Sports Investments might want to install another Argentinian into the club, recently sacked national coach Jose Pekerman.
