  1. PLEASE use correct grammer then. "Than any car has in history" is singular. meaning one car has made less carbon dioxide that the last 3 volcanic eruptions. "Than all the cars have in history" is plural. Don't make us confused, then argue against us. But it's not just cars is it? We add so much more CO2 than just from cars. 1 family of four, (2 adults, two children - For example) produces 60 tonnes of CO2 a year. one tree can absorb only 10 tonnes. lets add it all up now eh? There are about 6 billion humans alive. Lets say all are living in a family of four or so. 6,000,000,000 / 4 = 1,500,000,000 1,500,000,000 * 60 = 90,000,000,000 tonnes of CO2 every year. Of course these figures are incorrect. As many in poorer countries use less CO2 than the richer countries. But this is an approximation. I would say around 10,000,000,000 or 10 billion tonnes is let off every year by us humans. BUT! there's more. We are cutting down tree's. And at an alarming rate. This reduces the amount taken in by the planet. So more of the CO2 remains. PLUS! if there's less tree's to absorb water, more water evaporates, causing more global warming. In fact, CO2 is a minor greenhouse gas compared to water vapour. most of our breath contains water vapour. Surely these factors are all humans at fault? I doubt nature really has done this [bleep]e on the map mentioned earlier in this thread. We humans are to blame. Nature has done nothing wrong.
  2. A true optimist always looks on the bright side of life. So they never feel down that way. they would realise a positive side to thier loss. For example, "Making mistakes helps one learn." Watch Monty Python: Life of brian. For more details. pay attention to the last song. The one who begins the song, is an optimist. The song goes: "Always look on the brighttt side of life! :-w :-w :-w :-w" But i would say I'm optimistic.... most of the time. I CAN be extremely stressed out. BUt only two people I know can do that.

    So you havn't actually tried it, but assume - not based on past experience's of the event in question, but on your idea of how much a male thinks about sex, which are far more likely to be based on culture rather than science - how it would work out? May I ask if you're a male and how old you are? Secondly what does science have to do with it? And are you forgetting these people would be under the influence of alcohol at these parties. People's personalities and perceptions of others don't get better and more civilized under alcohol but rather the contrary. :wink: 1) I suppose he can answer that one. 2) lets see... the biological behaviour of humans. That's no way at all related to science whatsoever. :roll:. 3) So now after 1 drink you become drunk and lose all control over your thoughts? NO. Besides, it's not like they have to drink alcohol. Some might not. You're an naive pre-pubesent child! Seriously how old are you? Do you have half a brain at least? After answering my previous questions answer this please. Do you honestly think any college male going to a naked party (or any college party like that) would be drinking more than 1 drink? The majority would be drinking a lot more than that, and considering we were talking about the attitude of the males at the party that no one would be thinking lustful thoughts it would only have to be 1 person drinking and not thinking civilized. I know perfectly well what happens when males are around other naked people particularly females, and having other males around wouldn't stop anyone from having those types of thoughts. 1) It seems ou already know how old I am. A pre-pubesent child! :roll:. Deary me, what has this world come to? 2) if I had half a brain, only half of me would work. Both hands are typing, which means both sides are working. Which means I must have a full brain. Seriously. What an idiotic comment to make. ^^^ Lol, seriously though. Just because i don't think everyone in the world is pervy enougth to do nothing but think of other women's body parts is no reason to call me stupid. 3) This topic of conversation was when they went to the parties. They went to the parties to feel free. You just couln't accept that. you thing that all men think about is other women non-stop at these parties. I was merely stating you wrong. Seriously, however. Being drunk would not made you think lustful thoughts. It increases the chance of you doing so. But does not neccessarily make you. Besides, they might stop drinking before they lose thier minds. They could keep control over the lustful thoughts. preventing them to escape. Not everyone is as pervy as you think. People have different limits, and different controls over thier bodies. You stereotype everyone into being so pervy that they always think about women. Not everyone is like you, or what you think they are.
  4. I believe that the economy will fix itself out. Prices would temporarily be unstable. But as the demand and supply factors begin to apply. Then the prices will balance out. At first, prices would just be like this: ^^^^^^^^^,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,^,^,^,^,^. (With ^ being a rice increase. and , being a price decrease.)(This shows that it would be unstable. Not neccessarily occuring like that.) But soon the community would get ideas on how rare or common these items would be. So prices stabilise. Besides, if there's low supply but high demand for something. People would go out to get it. But there are other problems: 1) Rs has a demo and a Fully playable version. After you make an account, if you choose a demo world and are f2p. You can never become members. And vice versa. 2) The community won't change. I don't understand how it would. After all, being with an irritating person for longer makes it worse does it not? 3) Some worlds would get rejected. Most would choose popular worlds. And the not-so-popular worlds would have no one in them. 4) What about all those who already have accounts? Then they would not be able to trade etc from friends who go into different worlds. all they can do is talk. But other than that, the community's fine.
  5. I also agree with you. Scientists are the most reliable source of information (on science anyway) in the world. People can't accept that. So they believe that they are wrong. P.S. Glad I'm actually agreeing with someone for once :wink: .

    Who's to say you're looking at the men? I would personally ignore them (which would be pretty easy considering my attention would be focused on the girls.. Actually my attention is almost always focused on girls :-k ) meh, I was just saying how they don't actually go to these things for the women. Just about feeling free. Well, that would be me. But others. Who knows? Yes.. We've all sat naked in a room full of other naked people :roll: :lol: I never said that. i was pointing out that we really shoudln't be talking about it if we have never had the experience. That INCLUDES me by the way.

    I'll ask you the same question as I asked MPC a few pages back then; Have you actually been naked in a room with both males and females? Nudity in itself has nothing to do with sex; Context is everything. Context is everything, context is EVERYTHING! Oh please, you honestly think college guys are going to go into a room full of naked good looking chicks for the sole purpose of just feeling free, that their naked themselves?! You're kidding me! :roll: Probably actually. I've never thought of it before. But I doubt really they would think sexual thoughts as much because they are also men in that room. (unless thier homosexuals :roll:). Besides, if you have no experience of the situation. Then don't comment on it.
  9. well that doesn't prove that fm is the least expensive does it? That just proves that it's not the most expensive, thus proving firemaking cape is not the most admirable which is pretty obvious. fletching and cooking both cost less and there's also something special about firemaking: there is no return. This means that of all the money you spend you don't get anything back. There is a return on fletching/cooking and a considerably large one on crafting. This makes firemaking a bit harder. Thanks for quoting half the post and missing the point :roll:. Firemaking being a low-costing skill compared to some other skills was just 1 factor for why Firemaking, in my opinion, is the least admirable skill. I said that it requires very little skill and very little time. That's why it is the least admirable skill cape. (in my opinion). Fletching costs much mroe, lets say that you want to fletch some yew short bows. They give you 135 exp each. You will need 93223 Yew short bows to get from level 65 to level 99. a yew is err.... 500 each? (is that right? I'm no good with prices) 93223 * 500 = 46611500 -> 46 million, 611k and 500 gp. This does not include the money gathered from flax or the money lost earlier on in fletching.
  10. Your team is a unit. If someone messes up, it is the teams job to make up for the blunder. It isn't Jagex's job to eliminate every any and all forms of competition between teams. It isn't Jagex's job to make Castle Wars a single-minded rush-the-flag-whenever-you-want-because-there-are-no-consequences-game. The team messes up, it's YOUR problem as much as it is anyone elses. So stop making excuses like "oh, it's unfair, flagholders are immortal!". I'm a mere level 99, and I've torn through countless flagholding defenses like they were swiss cheese. With the proper equipment, namely ancients, flagholders are not that hard to take down to resume play. So, can't stand the heat, stay out of the kitchen. uh huh, ONE death. That ONE death causes the team of about 20 or MORE to LOSE. Extremely harsh thier. 'With the proper equipment, namely ancients, flagholders are not that hard to take down to resume play." It's good that everyone can use ancients then isn't it? :roll: Seriously, ancients is probably the only effective method of beating them. But sometimes, they can use ancients. Then you'll be run through like swiss cheese. Normal magic doesn't freeze them. So they still flee, while other come in to attack you. Ranged is the same. Melee? You'll be owned unless your 110+. Start thinking about everyone's methods of combat before you go saying you can breach the defences easily. because ancienting? It's NOT easy.
  11. Global warming *sighs*. Humans BIGGEST problem. If it doesn't cease then we will die out. The heat will dry the oceans up, put more water vapour into the air. Which heats up the planet even more. Causing a cycle which brings too much heat unto this planet. Eventually, this planet will end up in an ice age. But by that time, most of us would be wiped out. In 2003, there was a heatwave. Many died of it. Well global warming will heat up the planet beyond that heat. So by 2080, 2003 would be considered as a 'cold' year. The year that killed people, considered cold? THAT'S how hot it will be. Our lifespans would be shortened impeccable short. Since we humans are not used to that kind of heat. We are going to kill ourselves by global warming. Than any car eh :-s ? But there is not just one car in the world. there are millions of them. MOST of which produce carbon dioxide. All in all, I imagine that it might break even or even produce more carbon dioxide than those events. P.S. Owned
  12. I believe fiemaking is the least admirable skill cape. Why? It doesn't actually take any skill whatsoever. You just light logs. The emote may be good. but getting it is not that hard. I know many would just go. "firemaking costs a lot." But compare it to the other skills and it doesn't cost that much. Smithing, Construction and crafting. Those cost MUCH more. Firemaking is, what I believe, a pointless skill. Some chop thier own logs. making it less expensive. Besides. Due to the amount of autoers chopping higher leveled trees. The supply for these logs are rising. With more logs every day. Go to Lumbridge general in any f2p world. I guarantee that there will be masses of different types of logs in the store. these logs will be cheap, as there is so much more of it.
  13. He's asking for our opinions on whether rock respawns should be changed or not. He wants us to debate over whether it is good and should it be changed etc. I think it is fine ai it is. the respawns are fine. besides, the more people on that world, the faster the rock respawns. So it is actually better having loads of miners on one world.
  14. I do agree it is thier fault. But either way, you'll complain about them wouldn't you? If they did nothing. You'll say that there is no point in them being there. But if they do try to do something. But the flag gets obtained by the opposing flag holder. You'll be mad at them for trying. And making it harder for your team to win the game. that is why flag holding should be eliminated. That way, people won't complain as much. This is because if the noob died, the flag would be sent to the standard. Then gameplay would remain as normal. Meaning they wouldn't complain about them. There you go. Two birds killed with one stone.
  15. Theres two Flesh Crawler rooms. Ok, sorry. Didn't know that. I just knew that 3 * 50 = 150. But I know now. I won't make that mistake again.

    How the hell does that even make sense? I don't care about nudity or whatever, I just am not a nudist myself, to each their own I guess. that makes sense because you are intrested about it. That is why you are: a) looking at it. B) thinking about it. If you didn't like it, surely you would prefer not to think of these things? Or is it just me?
  17. Why do people get education, invest, save money, work for promotions..? People are greedy, they are no longer content with just having: 1. food, 2. drink 3. shelter 4. entertainment. People give meaning to their lives by buying: 1. better food, 2. expensive drinks, 3. big houses and mansions 4. pools, plasma TV's, sports cars, etc. on the expense of nature. When you live a "normal" and "safe" life for decades, you will eventually become bored and want something more. Most people will. That's why you can't use a system like communism, most people don't want to be just like everybody else. Too idealistic People have jealousy, envy, greed, lust. They want to be better than their neighbours. If it wasn't for capitalism, it would be people hoarding general resources like water, food, wood, and using them to extort people who are poor and want to live. That's how humans have been since the caveman. Sorry but people in general will use every advantage they can to be 'better' than others That's what i said. I was just saying how we shouldn't wreck other animals lives just for our own entertainment. I know that we humans are incredibuly selfish. In fact, I said the same thing in that post as what you just said. (That humans are selfish etc.)

    I personally feel sad to see so many "if your old. Put a towel round your waist pl0x!" Kind of responses. I mean, it's stupid. Don't look, don't think about it. You looking at it, and thinking about it actually means you like it. I feel uncomfortable being naked around others. But that's just me. Others may not feel the same way. I'll be naked on my own. BUt around others I'll be slightly unnerved. Many enjoy being in the nude. I do not hold anything against them. Sometimes it is a good way to escape the restrictions of clothes and be free. They can be nude if they like. It only goes over the top, when they start looking at the parts. :shock: It's strange really. i mean, other animals thrive off sex. Mating to them is a matter of life or death. They are naked. When we are naked, and see others naked, sexual reactions appear. This proves that we are like animals. These clothes hide our true selves. This, however, is sometimes a good thing. Otehrwise, we'd have overpopulated in seconds.
  19. Too late for that now. We have already safely conquered and destroyed this planet. I heard somewhere that our resources will be lost in 2050. Then nothing will remain. The stone ages will rule once again. Machenary will not be able to be made at all. plagues don't just appear out of thin air. A virus or disease or fungus has to be at the far end. The becteria and funguses are easily to be destroyes. But the viruses are much harder to get rid of. But by the time this new virus comes along. We'd be smart enougth to figure out a cure. The human race is doomed. But we've doomed ourselves much quicker than we would have been destroyed. Now, our time on this planet will be much shorter. Figure out a cure? You mean like we haven't done for HIV after 30 years of research? Imagine a vector that's as deadly but is airborne. That would truly be the end of us. Speaking of which, there's still no cure for the buebonic plague, even after all these centuries, which wiped out 30%+ of Europes population. Bird flu is also incurable, as is the common flu and all it's various mutations. We're not quite in the clear and it would be foolish to assume that we are. The human race is not doomed. We are technically capable and clever enough to overcome any foreseeable problem... we just need the political and economic will to meet these challanges. meh, We're getting smarter. So in theory. Our knowledge may make us be be able to conquer future diseases. Besides. It's sort of stupid what you said. "As with most other species, once they reach a certain maxed out population, something comes along that wipes them out to more managable levels, such as plagues, disease and starvation." Every time a species goes over the limit something fixes it. Kind of a silly thing to say? These diseases always come along when we overpopulate. It just... doesn't seem like a smart thing to say really. Humans are surprisingly ignorant. That is why these problems have emerged- due to our ignorance. We know not of selflessness. We only know about how to save our own skins. That's doomed us all. We will destroy ourslves in order to be comfortable. optimism won't save yourself.
  20. I come prepared. ready to make dashes at the flag. In hope to get my team a point. I usedifferent techniques. various different methods on attacking the castle to get the flag. Castle wars is supposed to be fun. Why should some people not get to play and not have fun. Even if they do play. With people holding thier own flags. It's not fun. Many people believe that because whoever died and gave the flag to the opponent, it's thier own fault etc. But what do you want them to do? Stand around and do nothing? No? Then don't say it's thier fault for trying to help you win the game. and for trying to have fun. It's just wrong.
  21. Okay, so theres 50 members world, right? (these are the amount on at one time) I see atleast 20 auto-shark fishers in everyguild - thats 1000? Another 10 at various other spots - 500? 2 auto rune buyers in every rune shop - thats 500? About 40 Green dragon autoers - 2000? Atleast 40 yew tree autoers - another 2000? 3 at Flest crawlers - 300 Another atleast 50 somewhere else in the Strongold (Ankous, Minotaurs)- 2500 Thats about 9000 all on at one time as an estimate... Im sure there are thousands more at other places aswell. I know its just a guess, but i wouldn't say its far off. Maybe 200 000 was a little high, but 60k seems more realistic. I doubt each members world has that amount in it. Just all the ones you've seen at that time. I also think that around 15k bots would be members. But, meh, I'm not members ANYMORE. (I do know what I'm talking about.) P.S. 3 * 50 = 150. Not 300 :P
  22. "Why shouldn't we?" I'll tell you why. All life on this planet will suffer just for our "fun." Anotehr example of humans being selfish. Even though we were doomed from the start. At least give the other animals a chance to live for all that time. Let them evolve and not die. Let us all live, generally, good lives. Even if it must mean giving in to destiny. At least we will last all that time. All life must come to an end. Get used to it. It's intimidating. But that's life. Too late for that now. We have already safely conquered and destroyed this planet. I heard somewhere that our resources will be lost in 2050. Then nothing will remain. The stone ages will rule once again. Machenary will not be able to be made at all. plagues don't just appear out of thin air. A virus or disease or fungus has to be at the far end. The becteria and funguses are easily to be destroyes. But the viruses are much harder to get rid of. But by the time this new virus comes along. We'd be smart enougth to figure out a cure. The human race is doomed. But we've doomed ourselves much quicker than we would have been destroyed. Now, our time on this planet will be much shorter.
  23. Our highest goal is not to achieve world peace. Without fighting things get extremely boring. So in that sense it is not our highest goal. But I think we have already surpassed the limit nature intended us to achieve. Our technology is too great. We live too long. Andt here are far too many of us. It will lead to be the end of all other life. We'll do anything just to survive. We humans are incredibly selfish. Due to us exceeding the limits. We are destroying the world to save ourselves. Thinking that it is right to do this as long as we survive. But we'll die this was. By 2080, 2003. The year of the heatwaves. Will be considered a cold year. Then think of many other years we've had. We will not be here to witness the destruction of our planet. Nor wil we see our own destruction fall nigh. We will just continue living our ignorant, selfish lives. If we don't do something fast. We'll pay for it in human, and other animals, lives.
  24. I don't speak like that. If you would like proof look at every other post I've made. I do not speak like that in-game either. a) I don't use magic or range. B) Melee doesn't work because they are running away. Meaning they are out of range. c) Maximum 10 cades from 1 team. Because of the sheer amount of idiots who drop barricades for the sake of destroying them, that limit is quickly reached. 3) I played cwars quite a bit actually. I loved to tunnel underneath. until I met flag holding. I always wear armour. prayer doesn't cover it. There is usually one with dragon items using melee, and another using ice barrage. That actually happened once. I do not have enougth prayer for myself to put on both. "2 words. Click faster" It doesn't matter how fast you click they are usually in the flag holder. attacking me. So I have to right click and select "pick up flag" but by that time, they had already picked it up.
  25. I'm with this bloke. Explain why, darkforaster. And what you replied to Reb will annoy him, I'm sure, but it also annoys me. He didn't say that people aren't equal - only that sometimes thier opinions aren't. Opinions can be wrong, right or varying degrees in between and thus can be unequal. If you're instinct is to jump to a conclusion that opinion = a person, then you'd be sorely mistaken. Opinions change; they aren't who we are. Human rights tell us we are all of equal value and should be treated equally. Facts and people's ability to get them wrong tell us that opinions on a topic can be unequal. *Sighs* neither of us are getting anywhere. meh this will be my last post in a while. So don't bother replying. what i meant by age doesn't determine maturity is the fact that adults, like children can be immature. therefore. Just because someone is older. does not mean that they are more mature. in Fact. At my school. The year 9's are the least mature, while the year 7's are the most mature. more proof that age is not a factor. (there are about 200 pupils in each year.)
