  1. IMO the episode was.... "ok" not amazing. Just.. confusing.
  2. Ok.... Wow... Um... just wow. That was such a cliffhanger if I ever saw one. Guess I'll be torrenting a new episode every week. *curse you shitty HBO here*
  3. Did episode 3 only air yesterday? Bit confused as it seems like I haven't watched this for quite a while yet only missed one episode? And yes, Amon is WAY scarier than Ozai. I can only say I'm really happy with the way this series is going, with darker tones and a more serious plot that also makes the villains more than just villains. Aang only found out HOW to take someone's powers away when he was in spirit form while on the Lion Turtle. This brings up an extremely controversy on how Amon is able to. Especially regarding it being an Avatar only ability. IMHO. I think he's just blocking their Chi for a long time. [They are Chi blockers :P]. Though, I don't know how the show will progress now. Considering Korra is on the run from Amon and his gang. I think it's more than just long chi blocking. Amon said he got these powers from the spirits, and there is some sense in that. Usually, it's the avatar that's the bond between normal world and spirit world. It would be quite likely he gets his powers from the spirits. If Amon indeed has such powers, that makes his claim that he got it from the spirits not unlikely. The avatar also is supposed to bring balance to world, and again Amon kind of has a point - there is quite the obvious disparity between benders and non-benders. Now, I don't see how Korra was supposed to do something against this, so I'm not too sure about this "the avatar has failed the world, so the spirits gave me this power", but on the other hand she's been pretty secluded and enjoyed all the advantages that her special status gave her. That doesn't exactly make her the ideal person to resolve those issues. I'm not quite sure what to think about this Amon. On one hand he seems to be quite serious about his powers and I think there's more to this than just some trick...but on the other hand I don't see why the spirits would choose him as an "avatar replacement" The thing is... What spirits directly gave them? Avatars are the only ones that can communicate with spirits. Though, this is 70-80 years since Aang. I honestly don't know how this all plays out now. Since, if Amon gets hold of Korra she's done for. However... she might be able to unlock her 'avatar' state at that point. [Aang was only able to at extreme times of stress or if he might die] - So, them having a confrontation might start even more things. It's rather a confusing turn of plot right at the beginning of a series. Guess we'll have to wait till next Saturday to find out.

  5. The older fanbase is the only real reason why this show is still on.. No MLP has ever lasted this long, or has gotten this good reviews. It's HONESTLY the truth about every generation of a genre. Creator develops an amazing story. Animators put the story to life. Everyone starts loving it. $$$$$ Need new ideas.. *turns to fanbase* Fanbase gives ideas [for their own enjoyment] Fanbase ruins the the story. It's honestly happening with RS right now if you think about it..
  6. Season two is.. well a hit and miss on many many episodes I have to agree. Though, there are some GOOD episodes. The season finale is tomorrow [2 parts]... And, Season 3 IS in production. --- I have to admit, the first season was amazing, the second not so much. But, I'll stand by it and see how far it can go.
  7. Actually.. she is.. She's on as a consult. She's currently working on a new project [DC Shorts - Super Best Friends Forever] Though, she has no technical say in the show in the second season, she is still there.
  8. Yeah, I don't think the people who criticize Bronies for this reason watch Dora the Explorer or Barney either. Honestly, generally 75% of all 'criticism' towards bronies is because it's a girls show. I was having a correlation with Dora.. or Barney. Not directly linking them. [Though, both are educational towards both sexes at a toddler/elementary schooler age].. Huh? You like the show but you don't like the show...? Generation 1-3 were basically 'shows' which, were honestly little plastic ponies running around. Their movies had no plot. Their fanbase was... well, boring and unconnected. MLP G4 [Friendship is Magic] is honestly a good series. Lauren Faust did other great show (including Power Puff Girls, which, honestly should come back to regular television)...
  9. Sooooooo.... thisssss needs a bump <3 ^ LOL this goes perfectly with College Humor's video Also, Rarity is... well a rare gem. Rather obnoxious, a total [bleep]. But, overall she's that "rich popular girl that you're only friend's with because well, she's rich".. Also, to clear up speculation. I somewhat liked MLP [Generation 1-3] but the shows/movies/everything was horrendous. You were afraid to even mention it. But, G4 MLP is honestly a good show. Reasons: Shows true friendship can come from anywhere. Lets you believe in who you can, and will be. Good animations. Great audio. Amazing character development. Great episode development. Honestly, you could watch any show in the first season at least in ANY order and not feel out of place. Also this "Bron[ie/y] subculture was founded on /b/ (/b/pony). And, as like everything it spreads like wildfire. Also, on other forums 'debbie-downers' have stated "disgusting porn" about it, and 'erotic' fictions/forums.... Rule 34 of the internet anyone? There's a porn for everything [including Midgets skateboarding while whistling Yankee doodle?]... The internet meme base upon this is like anything else. Though, you honestly counteract that with "OMG IT'S A LITTLE GIRLS SHOW." So is Dora the Explorer (somewhat)... or Barney... Or anything of the sort. Truthfully if I wasn't a Brony, I'd rather sit through MLP than listen to Dora be confused on which road has the "BAD stuff"... and her screaming "Map map map maaaaaaaap" every 4 seconds. Everyone honestly claims this towards Adventure Time and Fosters [H4IF], which, honestly is true. Regarding the information that can be learned from them. Lastly, the reason why teen aged guys, and middle aged guys like this, is because well *points up to the reasons above* the episodes honestly move so freely, and you honestly will learn something about yourself or understand something so much more. So, to all the haters. WATCH at least 3 episodes, then make a judgement. Otherwise any further discussion about "trolling"/"omg [bleep]"/"wow, this is stupid"/"you're kidding right" will be invalid.. Don't judge a book by its cover.. Or by it's fanbase for that matter...
  10. Great news! :) I had also looked over on the BT site in regards to your problem. Generally all ISPs use outsourcing where they'll use 'unwanted/unneeded' servers in other countries. Yes, by far WiFi is extremely convenient, but the reliability of a wired is also nice. Though, I know what you're saying. So, lets hope that these lag spikes stop ;) [Also, I should point out, almost all MMO games will have lag. But, it's the amount of people, and the type of situation which will make the company realize something might be wrong :P]
  11. You can usually change the name and icon very easily on most devices. As for the power usage. If it's being ran through a store-bought case/model you should [should*] he fine. However, if you try and over-do it and add in more things; ram, higher processor, graphics, etc. you WILL most likely need a new power supply. Just, make SURE that you get the correct one. Make sure it uses the same connector, and has a higher power wattage than the one you currently have.
  12. You can go into the jail. [Where you had to kill ~10 prisoners]. After you have completed the quest, you can return there to max out. Each kill if I recall gives roughly 2% or something. [basically, camp there until you're maxed] EDIT: I see you stated that you cannot kill any more prisoners/people. Have you talked to Vanescula?
  13. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AldEhLOK6ejJdGJGSFF1N3YzejExVDNWV2M2ZkFoNHc#gid=0 Xp Waste is doing excellent jobs in researching the ins and outs of trying to avoid exp waste in every way. However, this above guide gives outstanding moneymaking techniques. Table of Contents ^ the main table of contents that is constantly being updated by him, and his staff.
  14. I checked via Chrome, IE and Mozilla FireFox. I even went on Opera. I currently don't see any problems with your CSS. i even went as far as adding your website to my bookmarks, which also neither affected anything. I'm also guessing you're attempting to use Faveicon? Because I only see the link when I go to "Blog". Are you still having problems? Or did you figure them out? EDIT: Sorry for bumping this topic. I could have sworn this was from April 12th. [Also confused on the user posting this]
  15. I see that you have posted this 4 days ago. Is everything working fine? Or are you still having issues? BT has been having bandwidth issues along with other things. Try a wired connection. I know it's not ideal. However, with WiFi when you send and receive data, there's milliseconds that can go by where you get 'nothing'. Also, try a tracert to runescape.com. And post the full results of it. It honestly shouldn't be a routing issue. Are you using a Cable modem -> router? Or just Ethernet/phone line -> router? If you can bypass the router and go straight to a laptop/desktop can you try that also? Basically, lag is the time it takes from your data to be sent, wirelessly/through wired connection to a server. This server then sends it through the interweb to JaGex's servers. This then corresponds with your avatar on the screen. The data gets sent back the same way it came (though, may have taken a different route). The time it takes from one batch of data to go from YOUR computer and then back to you, is 'PING'. Your ping time corresponds with your lag. If all else fails, try calling BT. Ask them if they can up your bandwidth cap, along with asking them if anyone else is experiencing problems like your own. They'd be more than happy to assist you.
  16. Congrats on figuring it out! :thumbup: External Hard drives are basically internal hard drives. Just, they have an added circuit board that changes their SATA or IDE interface to a Firewire/USB interface. So, as you have noticed, you are perfectly capable of transferring your external hard drive, from it's case, to your own tower's case. Though, with a couple modifications as you stated. With all honesty. If you put your external hard drive, in another external hard drive's case. It won't work properly. Unless say, it's the exact same model/brand, etc. I'll come back to this tomorrow once you have done you 'to do list' to see if I can be of any more assistance. :D Good luck!
  17. I could for sure do this, but I shouldn't need to. There has to be a way to install Java, but I don't know how. This, right now is your best bet. Try it out, to see if it MIGHT work. This also brings up if you're on 32bit or 64bit. [Like Jonanananas states below in the link regarding Mac OSC 10.5 running on 32bit no longer supports Runescape might be the cause.] < for your Macbook Others have stated, that Apple no longer supports Java for anything under 10.6 [snow Leopard] However, you can find the correct version by going to Apple's Support website: http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1359 Also. Can you please find out your current MacBook's Processor? You can do that by: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3696 This can help me, along with some others to correctly identify your problems. [However, like stated. You honestly should update your Macbook. My Old macbook still uses 10.4.11 8S165 because I honestly have no reason to upgrade it. (I have other mac's that are up to date)]
  18. The reason you're not allowed to play Runescape currently is due to Apple disabling Java on all of their devices [Mac OSx]. The is because of a virus/malware called "Flashback" that was using a Java intrusion. http://www.engadget.com/2012/04/12/apple-releases-fix-for-flashback-malware// and http://news.cnet.com/8301-27076_3-57410050-248/mac-flashback-malware-what-it-is-and-how-to-get-rid-of-it-faq/ Both of those explain exactly what this is. But, do NOT be discouraged. You can still play RS [Though, I do agree you should upgrade to 10.6/10.7 for better support]. You're welcome to go to the Runescape Tech Help forums for expert advice/help from their own support staff regarding how to handle this. In the meantime I will be going through this topic and typing up a detailed 'How-To' on how to get you back onto Runescape. Also, might I point out. This isn't a "Upgrade your Java" it's a 'Hold on, we're disabling your java while we find a permanent fix for this intrusion. You can however re-enable it if you see fit, however we cannot give any advice if you do so.'
  19. I think I'd rather believe the professional that says that there's people watching for downloads from the site to get in, tyvm. As a COMP TIA A+ Certified individual. (The same certification that they are required to hold) I can almost guarantee to you that he, along with you are absolutely positively clueless on this situation. He, nor you knew where you had gotten it from. And, honestly you could have easily have gotten it via JaGex/RuneScape's site. Because as MageUK said above me. If someone Backdoor'd you [Gained illegal access to the root/core of your system to track everything you do, move your mouse, type, gather information] could have EASILY made you think "www.thissiteisntrslol.com" was "www.runescape.com" Also, be sure to never ever click on links via email. 99.9% of the time when you're playing a game, there is a messaging center, or some sort of information [that was the base of the e-mail] on their site. GO to their site via putting in the address bar. Never, never, should you type in "runescape" and expect the first link on Google to be the correct Runescape link. Be cautious.
  20. I hate to have made my first post since I registered in 06 be on this topic. But the "OMG YOU DID IT, AND DON'T BELIEVE THEM. BLAH BLAH. IT'S YOUR OWN FAULT FOR DOWNLOADING THINGS." Is waaaay, far out of hand. Just visiting a site, can actually give you viruses. Also, don't state you don't believe in Phising, because they are for EVERYTHING now. From Home goods, to WoW, to even watches. They want you to (stupidly) stumble on their link and then you can foresee the rest. Flash Exploits, are a thing of the past. But, honestly are the most common type of webpage exploit. Java Drive-bys, the amount of coding to achieve anything from this far outweighs the 'collection'. Basically, you might see this in a blue moon. PDF Exploits, the most common, these are everywhere. But, lets break something down. John, types up this document/pdf. Jane, not knowing either intentional or by accident that John uploaded a keylogger to it. Begins to spread it. ... Jake, downloaded the pdf that John created. John, and Jake do not even know each other. But, both of them play RS/WoW/GW, etc. [Honestly, all of these games are interconnected in the terms of "If I can get a username and password, it *should* work for these games, etc] Now, you see. Jake never knew John had accidentally/intentionally added a keylogger to his PDF. Ok, now, you may think. "But everything is protected." Actually, it's not. The fundimentals of any type of either phising, keylogger etc. is: Gather information. Stay hidden. SPREAD. So, in your defense you may/may-not-have gotten it from JaGex's downloads section. However, no one can ever be certain.
