Updates are every 3 months, that's not too terrible, although game breaking glitches like the M26 glitch really should have been addressed immediately. I suppose I don't understand how the last few patches have lead you to believe they should take an NPC controlled vehicles stance. Vehicles are the calling card of Battlefield, why would they abandon that?

I assume this complaint is directed at the gunship. Would you really want some [wagon] kid flying that fortress? I think it's fine the way they handled it, as it provides a -2 troop count to the controlling team, giving less ground support, but increasing air support heavily. Plus it's fun. And the only way those gunner seats would be even remotely useful would be if the gunship flew in pattern, straight and flat as it does under NPC control. It would be entirely useless under human control [and it would be a -3 troop count, which at that point is 1/4 of the team on PS3]

I think that's a fallacy. People grow more resistant to change over time, but if I've learned one thing from life, it's that EVERYTHING can change in a matter of seconds.

My mob-boss...boss blew up on one of my favorite co-workers [real stand up kid, gives WAY too much of a shit about his job cause he pays his parents bills, and his college, real hard worker] and he just shut down for like an hour and didn't want to do anything. Then he flipped on one of the bartenders and room captains. I got so mad [also stayed up all night drinking, and having been awake for a solid 35 hours, 14.5 of which on the clock] that I blew up on my other boss [the level headed one] for my other boss being the biggest ass hat on the planet. I got sent home being deemed "too 'edgy' to work the end of my shift" and I expect someone will wake up in a river with cement shoes tomorrow. How was everyone else's night? haha

"I want a girlfriend/boyfriend", and other such relationship advice
to be fair Muggiw only brought up jealousy because we did. And of course you cant have poly success stats, because poly is technically always "success". It never really "ends" it just goes on and off. So it's "always" successful. certainly more than a mono relationship it (on then off). There is no permanence. As long as you are attractive, there will always be options in poly. I feel at the thought train that Muggiw is currently living by, he'll die "alone" and be perfectly happy doing so. And that's cool by him. And we're curious why. Personally, that's not how I get my jollies. I want to be married some day. I want to have kids and a legit ass family. And I hate how that seems to be harder to do today that ever before in any age. But I just gotta handle that. Muggiw did. By deciding that's not really what he cares about. I am curious what he does care about. What do you care about Muggiw? When you stop hooking up with mad chicks [assuming you do by the confidence you thrust in this mentality of yours] what are you going to do to entertain yourself?

"I want a girlfriend/boyfriend", and other such relationship advice
I had a strange revelation in my sociology class today that is sort of relevant to muggiw's points. I have an assignment that requires me to interview a couple that has lived together is [or was/planning to be] married, where both individuals have out-of-home careers. The idea is to look at gender roles and assignment of responsibility in the relationship, the home ownership, and the bread winning. Thinking about who I would interview I came to the conclusion that literally the only married couple that still lives together that each party has a career that I know personally is my own parents. I realize our economy is rough right now, and divorce rates/single parenthood is high but jesus. I never realized it, but I'm literally the only one of my friends that has that family structure. I had no idea it was so rare.

So first you work insane shifts at this mobster job of yours, and now you have a 12 hour school day. Is this school mobster-run too or what's the deal with that? :P Nah, Rutgers isn't mobster run haha. My body is just used to functioning obscene hours of exertion, so I chose a school schedule where I'm in class for 12 hours on Tuesday, 3 on Wednesday, and 6 on Thursday. I only have classes 3 days a week, so no complaints here.

"I want a girlfriend/boyfriend", and other such relationship advice
I love that picture, Noxx I know exactly what you're talking about. I don't believe humans are 'naturally' monogamous. There are species out there that mate for life [ie: swan] but I don't think humans naturally belong to that group. Monogamy was implemented by religion, for ownership purposes that was later glorified to justify it's existence. BUT due to it's success in the past thousands years or so, I feel that humans NURTURED their way into a state where monogamy is more natural. Maybe not on a biological level, but on a psychological level. We can't possibly evolve that drastically in only a thousand years or so, so we have a pysche of social standard to kind of speed up the process. That's my 2 cents anyway.

"I want a girlfriend/boyfriend", and other such relationship advice
I never said immediately. Hell you can wait however long each party agrees to, but it has to happen eventually. Which is why my quote omitted any sort of reference to timing. to me sex is 50% of the relationship. ability to be open/honest with and conversability are the other 50%. If I'm not having sex with my girlfriend within 6-7 months there's something not clicking, and it's time to move on. -- Porn is a natural thing to enjoy. It should have absolutely 0 effect on a relationship. The fact that some people let it become an issue, sows that they're way too insecure to be in a relationship to begin with.

I stand by this, and unless someone drastically disagrees with it, I'm volunteering it as our "conclusion".

Did you just imply I should be running smoke in my MBT? LOL zoom optics all the time. Tank sniping is way too effective not to.

In regards to this, a sexual bond can strengthen an emotional bond, but not destroy it. In some circumstances the opportunity of sex can cloud judgement. That doesn't mean that it always does. My answer specifically sounds contradictory because when you ask if the concept played a role you have to understand the situation in question reappeared in my life over 20 times, and that the circumstances and answers are not always the same every time. People change over time leading to different outcomes. My situation with my ex is the furthest thing from normal and healthy, and would appear as a catastrophic outlier in any statistical sense of data collection. So while there are answers available, they won't compare to any data you'll find anywhere else. It'll contradict itself, absolutely. Just be thankful you didn't live it.

Did anyone else know that you can cook grenades by hitting the grenade button then holding the fire button after you pull the pin? I was uninformed for so long... I'm liking the new patch notes. Mortar is still iffy, but I like everything else. Mixed feelings on the laser designation in 4th seat of scout chopper. It's fair, but it's inconvenient.

"I want a girlfriend/boyfriend", and other such relationship advice
Question for you: You remember "the ex", right? Do you think you'd have stayed with her past her first indiscretion if you hadn't been having sex with her? Alright so I just got out of the hospital after the brutal assault you just applied to my testicles haha. To answer your question, the first time it happened I don't believe I'd slept with her yet if memory serves correctly. Of course the first "indiscretion" was the least of them in the long run so it was much easier to forgive. Kind of. Me back then didn't get over it for quite some time, but it really wasn't as big a deal as the whole picture that's been painted in my head this many years down the road. In the many times my ex and I broke up, there were times where I held on for sexual reasons, but I didn't reach that level of emotional detachment until I'd say the 15th or 16th time we broke up. Possibly even later [the drinking is helping me not remember, all according to plan haha]. Even after the emotional detachment there were times after that I got back together with her with intent of actually making it work as a real functional relationship. So the simple answer is no, sleeping with my ex had little to no influence on my repeated attempts to have a healthy functional relationship with her. Granted, had I never slept with her ever, I MAY have given up after the 3rd or 4th try. But that didn't happen, so I'll never know. I was a different person back then, I can't truly speak for how I would have reacted to such a circumstance back then.
