Going Solo - Hard to do now
Usually when I was younger, I would always get on games and play them solo, even if it was a MMORPG. Multiplay is always fun, like Guild Wars. I would play the role as a monk because I loved the support role. Helping others was always what I was into. However as of late.. I find it extreemly difficult to sit down and enjoy singleplayer games and also multiplayer games when my friends are not on. Usually I find myself thinking "what do I do next" on the game.. and eventually log off because i'm very bored. Do you think something is wrong with me for feeling this way? I personally believe its because I moved out of my old town to here. All my friends I knew have either moved out as well to a different location, or back in my old town. I'm way up here in North Dallas, and I gotta say its really lonely. Ever since I was like 5, I played video games hard core in almost every spare time I had. Now I feel like I just wasted my life. I don't want to give up video games, and also I want to make a career out of it.. but i'm extreemly unsure if I ever want to go that route because its not so satisifying anymore. I think though that this is probably due to a lack of being social in real life. And to be honest, if I ever gave up video games, it would be like starting life from scratch again.. I have no idea what I would want to be.. Any advice? I would appreciate it.. :| ~Defender~

Hitler Good Or Bad? Whats your opinion?
When Society starts claiming that Hilter was a good leader, you should start finding a nice comfy rock to hide under! Its going to get ugly in the years ahead! If you would have said Hilter was a good leader back in the 40's, you probably would have been shot... 10 times... even after your dead.. and they shoot you again.. and burry you.. and shoot your grave.. 10 times a day. ~Defender~

Change of opinion?
That's a stupid reason not to debate, and you are stupid for thinking it. Thank you for proving my point? :-s Why debate with someone who's deliberately going to insult you the whole way through? Thats not maturity, thats immaurity. Think what you want, but I would prefer to stay out of the flames if it involved getting bash for no reason. I would say your a child if you cannot debate without a insult added. You can get insulted in your debates all you want if you like? :-s ~Defender~

Change of opinion?
No one seems to be able to debate without insulting the other person first. Thats why they aren't fun anymore. I would love to sit and debate with someone without them saying my side is stupid even if thats what they believe. Because then it changes from a debate on a forum to a personal attack. ~Defender~

"God hates fags"
The only reason why flames start is because people don't just say "I believe this this and this". They say "You Fail. This this this and blahblahblah. What you just said was so ridicolous. I can't believe you think so illogical". Its the fact that Atheists/Agnostics/Christians just do not give their side, they add alittle salt of insults to each other. Thus, you got Religion Flame War. I personally see more hate comming from the athiest side though. Basically Satenza believes that its "okay" and if you cannot take the heat, get out. So he is more of the problem, not the solution. Feel free to flame me Satenza :) ~Defender~

If you can suggest a way in which adults only will be playing this game, suggest it. There's no way you can stop the idiot parents who buy games for their underage children. I'd prefer no-one playing it than both children and adults playing it. So just because some kid may play it, means that you'd rather that the game be banned. Sorry I fail to agree with that logic. Because thats the same kid that grows up to shoot you in the head or someone else in the head. Don't get me wrong, if you raise your kids wrong, they are raised wrong, but atleast we can stop it from going too far by not letting them have extreemly violent video games. ~Defender~ Okay so because I play violent games like Punisher I'm gonna grow up and shoot someone? You fail. Its the parents who we must blame for the screwed up kid, NOT GAMES! No I do not fail. Just because video games violent like these does not effect you, does not mean they will also not effect everyone else. Not everyone is raised right to know right from wrong. Not everyone has a stable mind. Not everyone is good willed. With that logic, you could hurt alot of people. Look at pokemon for example, in some scences on the cartoon show, people got that eye disorder (forgot the name of it) which sent them to the hospital. Had someone said "well it didn't hurt my eyes", and sent the show on the air anyway results in kids being hurt. Do you really believe because it doesn't hurt you, its not going to hurt the other 999,999,999 kids out there in some way or form? I hope not. ~Defender~

GameMaker
I want to make video games someday as a career, but before I start looking into college, I would like to get in some home practice. I just have no idea where to start.. I preferably want to be a modder that designs maps. But its hard to find the discipline to train myself working with moddeling programs hours on end. And especially when you cannot test them! Can anyone help? ~Defender~

2008 Presidential Elections
Turn to your TV and change the channel, FOX isn't an intelligent way of gathering information. Anyway, I'm for Obama. Hillary, as stated above, is a hypocrite who will say anything to pease the crowd in front of her, so I don't honestly understand her motivers fully, and I'm not willing to take that sort of risk. I never watch fox news simply because its "pop" news. I get my news from a handfull of other sources and Ive done my own research on Obama. The truth about him is that during part of his childhood he was raised in Jakarta, Indonesia where he attended a muslim school. Is there anything wrong with that? No....but what makes it so interesting is that in recent years America has become very distant with muslim nations and muslim terrorism has become a big issue for us. Anyways, I agree with you on Hillary. She will please whomever she is speaking to. Can I ask what websites or where do you get your research information from? I rarely trust Media as they are only intrested in making a buck. Hell they would kill your mom if it gave them money. Send me a Pm please. ~Defender~

"God hates fags"
That's not true at all, I have far more respect for moderate or liberal Christians because it's evident that they've probably at least studied the Bible someway. If you had, you would realise the glaring contradictions, inaccuracies and absurdities mean it is obviously a work of fiction, although liberal Christians would say inspired by God. You're also hypocritical, you said you desire to know the truth, but by accepting the Bible as the literal word of God that's impossible. I really can't be a hypocrite on that because neither I or you know the truth? What if Gods word 100% is the truth? Then I can't be a hypocrite can I? Only if you believe like you do, that its contradicting, then you could call me a hypocrite. So I see where your comming from, but I disagree because no one knows what the truth is. I have read some "contradictions" that people say about the bible. Usually its a mis-type, or a misunderstanding. I want a contradiction on the bible that is ATLEAST 2 or 3 paragraphs. Most contradictions are only sentences. I found alot of stuff where I could say the bible is contradicting itself if I use only a setence or two. However, when you zoom out, read the whole paragraph or chapter, you understand the whole story, not just a part of it, and realize it was never contradicting at all. ~Defender~ 'What is truth?' is a deep question, but I believe in empirical and deductive evidence. That kind of evidence goes against most of the miracles in the Bible, and points towards a worldview which is far richer and more interesting than anything humans ever dreamt up thousands of years ago when they were writing the Bible. You want contradictions? How long have you got? I may as well start at the beginning: Genesis 1:25-27 (Humans were created after the other animals.) And God made the beast of the earth after his kind, and cattle after their kind, and every thing that creepeth upon the earth after his kind: and God saw that it was good. And God said, Let us make man in our image.... So God created man in his own image. Genesis 2:18-19 (Humans were created before the other animals.) And the LORD God said, It is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him an help meet for him. And out of the ground the LORD God formed every beast of the field, and every fowl of the air; and brought them unto Adam to see what he would call them: and whatsoever Adam called every living creature, that was the name thereof. Thats not a contradiction, I actually looked into that one before. Notice how the fish was not created in Genesis 2:18-19. Why is that? Fish surely probably was not jumping up on the shore, flipping towards adam, saying "name me! name me!". As humans we tend to just assume things. We assume that the Garden of Eden was created when God created the earth. Actually thats not true. If you read the paragraphs after God created the animals, it will go on to how it says God created the Garden of Eden. Now think about it, since the Garden of Eden does not exist yet, but animals do, then most likely the animals are not hanging around the desert. So, after God created the Garden of Eden, no animals were living in it. Then he made man, then he put some animals in there so he won't get lonely, and then a woman. Its really not contradicting at all. ~Defender~

"God hates fags"
I'm not saying it's natural or not. But some people aren't gay by choice. By your logic, why were they created that way? Well here is what I believe and i'll point out why I believe it. I believe no one is born and cannot help being gay. I believe we all have a choice in the matter. For example.. I'm straight, but that doesn't mean I do not have a choice in what type of girl I want. Now for a gay guy, does he not have a choice in which guy he would want to be with? If he can make a choice on what type of guy he loves, he can make a choice not to be gay. Don't misunderstand me. I'm not saying that he won't have feelings of attraction, but I am saying he can choose not to be gay. And anyone who defines that attraction as "love" has missed it. Cute boys or girls doesn't make your life happy. Only when that other person loves you back. Can a guy love a guy? I don't believe they can love each other like a guy and a girl could love each other. Because by the Bible, God is Love, and homosexually is a sin. So therefor, if a guy loved a guy as a guy can love a girl, then God is Sin. Which would be illogical. Thats why I believe my friends say they was "miserable" when they was gay. I'm glad their out of that relationship though. Also, alot of people take attraction as "lust".. so if a gay guy has attractions to another guy, and call it "love", wouldn't it really just be lust? Love is not a feeling, its a act and always will be. Because no matter who you are with, after years time, that feeling you had the very first time will fade away. Then you could say "my love has faded away". ~Defender~

"God hates fags"
Well that really doesn't make sense to me. If your enemy loves you, and you love your enemy, you really don't have a enemy do you? But we do have enemies because not everyone follows the Bible or its teachings and not even christians. Yes we all know what love is, but its immoral to command love? Well, love is not a feeling, its a act. Therefor, since we all have choice, we can choose to act on love anytime we wish. Therefor its not a impossible command that we cannot do, we just never "feel" like doing it except to those we like. I'll tell you what though.. its not impossible but it IS gonna take aloooooot of practice, haha. ~Defender~

"God hates fags"
It doesn't say that anywhere in the Bible to hate Homosexuals, as usual Sycosis, you don't know what you're talking about -.- .... please note i didnt mention the bible and i know it doesnt say in the bible that he hates them but seriously that dude has issues he hates more things than me......iVe got some competition :evil: Well, not to say "i hate homosexuals", or anything, but does the act of it seem natural to you? A guy and a guy cannot produce life nor can a woman to woman. Please don't bring up the sperm donation thingy, as a few hundred years back, i'm sure this wasn't possible. If you think about it, if every guy went gay and every girl went gay, then within less than a 100 years the human race would be extinct. Thats why I don't really see it as a justified but more of a selfish act. I have alot of friends who are gay and when they finally get out of that stage, they tell me they was so miserable living that way, but now they are happy being with a guy/girl. ~Defender~

Global Warming topic
I'm a bit confused on 1 question on global warming, and please correct me if i'm wrong. But technically both Global Warming and Global Cooling are taking place. We are basically messing up the O-Zone Layer, so when its daytime, the earth will get hotter than normal. When its night time, because there is no heat comming in, the earth will get much cooler than normal. So overall, 1 side of the earth is getting fried while the other is getting frozen to death. ~Defender~

"God hates fags"
There is not a single human in this world that is excatly alike, DNA for DNA. Which is probably related to the reason why we all have our different beliefs. One thing we do all agree on though, and that is wanting and desiring to know the truth of us and the universe. As for me, I'm christian and I believe the Bible word for word. Because personally, if I believe God is real, then he did write the Bible. So when I get to heaven, I can't say "well i only believed 'parts' of what you wrote". Doesn't make sense. You go all the way or don't go at all, lol. If you think about it though, I would say the best christians are christian extreemists who go for the bible word for word. I'm not talking about the crazy pysco killing/hating bashing ones. I'm talking about the ones that stand on "love no matter what". We are ever learning though. And don't worry about death guys, your a spirit, you never die. ~Defender~
