:shock: People find these funny? Now I know how the average webcomic gets so much attention.

It took me less than a minute getting my new PC to go to my "music" folder, click on it, and click "add folder to library" in which it then added everything to my iTunes. Of course then I had to wade through duplicate songs due to my own fault but even that was easily taken care of.

It wasn't a strawman. He said "musical composition doesn't take skill" which is entirely wrong. I pointed out Mozart, who had incredible musical composition. It's an extreme example but it wasn't a strawman. A lot of rapping (good rap) takes a lot of knowledge in composition. Of course at this point I doubt you're going to really care and would rather just continue on with the hurr rap is dumb brigade.

Whats the full name of [RoS]? I'll put them on any KoS list of mine too. Also I'm having a bit of guild troubles with the 7 or so guys I run with. We moved over to [Xen of Onslaught] and have found out they aren't what we thought. I'm sure if they [bleep] up something again that we'll be gone. Hasn't bothered me much though, just playing my HoX. Why I got my Tempest up to 80 I have no idea, it's not really my kind of playstyle in group PvP (always first to go down :P).

It doesn't matter how much Microsoft paid because they're getting what their customers wanted. That's what they said for FFXIII too. :P

A man isn't going to have any need to take off his shirt. And, anyways, a woman isn't going to be completely taking off her shirt -- it's pretty much all covered between the shirt + babies head.

I figured you were, but I thought maybe I worded myself wrong there. :P FYI I learned how to play an instrument starting in 6th grade. Hurr playing instruments doesn't take talent!

Goddamn guy doesn't know whats in our Guacamole! He should just not be a [kitty] and take his chances. :|

I've got nothing left to do at work today, another 30 minutes or so until I get out and I'm pretty much F5ing Joystiq for their E3 coverage. *sigh* at least I'm getting paid. :P

No idea why or how I stumbled upon this topic (I have an hour left at work and absolutely nothing to do) but these are my opinions. Keep in mind that I played runescape for a bit over a year (maybe 2 total) as a kid, I played WoW for over a year and I have played several other MMORPGs. TL;DR version: Runescape sucks. WoW has ok PvE content but horrible PvP content. Long version: Runescape is just horrible. It's nothing but an addiction fueled game to race to the top stats and involves no thought process other than "shiny monster, click, gather loot". I'll spare going into any sort of actual detail but the only redeeming factor of this game is it's easy ascesability. But, whatever, I'd compare it to other java minigames more than a real MMO. The best thing is that I'd be willing to be a large majority of you do not play Runescape alone, and can only have fun (read: tolerate) with it when you're talking on AIM/MSN, watching TV, watching a movie, doing anything else that isn't actually focusing on runescape. I mean, if you're not going to actually be playing the game then why play? WoW is "ok". This is coming from a guy who raided up to the Black Temple level so I certainly am not someone who got to 20 and quit, or someone who only did Kara. What I should say is that, for a PvE oriented player, WoW is just fine. While I never found any of the BC content (except for kael) hard at the least for most players it does at least prove somewhat of a chalange. Downing a boss for the first time is a pretty fun experience. The problem comes in the carrot-on-a-stick sort of gameplay that most of the community follows upon. While I realize that gear progression is needed (to an extent) for raid encounters in WoW the entire reason of raiding, for the most part, is to get gear. Now please spare me the details of how almost all other raiding games (EQII,EQ,ect.) follow the same logic and realize that I am just talking about WoW here. What I'm trying to say is that after you clear the games content, which for a well progressed guild is quite easy and can be done in a matter of weeks, there is nothing to do but farm for gear. Gear for what? Well, not for PvP because of Blizzard handing out easy epics to players. For the most part though the raiding was at least enjoyable, although having to run instances every week sucks. The games PvP is a monumental failure, however. From a very much post-BC perspective, the arenas destroyed any hopes of PvP. Well, in actuality the battlegrounds killed it and the arenas were just the salt in the wound. PvP in WoW, at high end (none of this lowbie PvP or miss-matched gear PvP, but PvP at the top level with top gear) ends up being nothing more than a predictable encounter in the arenas, only determained by what classes are there, luck with crits and the numerous other [cabbage] values Blizzard put in and a very small amount of skill. Ask anyone who has competed at higher levels, PvP is very formulatic. I played a rogue/druid combo (me being the rogue) in S3 at a 1900+ rating. I never cared to get higher, and my druid quit, but it doesn't mater. The point is is that pretty much every fight was a formula like we did for raiding. Oh, a priest/lock? (making something up here). Well ok I'll burn the lock, cyclone his pet (for SL) and I'll blind priest when he tries to get a heal off. And that was it. They would react with their own formula (like fear bomb us, try and build distance, take it slow) and numbers would win the fight. The biggest problem is that the games PvP, which in most games is built upon the actual struggle between players, was turned into nothing more than a way for the casuals to get easy epics. Arena teams were made not to have fun and to try and do well into PvP but to "just lose 10 games a week" and get their easy epics. Battlegrounds revolve around a bunch of guys just AFKing for honor despite blizzards numerous attempts to stop it. There is no competition in the game any more, even at the highest level it's the same few groups fighting each other over and over. If you bought WoW to play a PvP game, backout -- please. This is not some fanboy or hater talking, this is someone who has played through the game objectively and has spent plenty of time on it. During most of my time in WoW PvP was simply an afterthought to the PvE game, and I hated that which prompted me to quit. That was longer than I thought it would be. My problem with people and MMOs are that they very rarely view them outside a couple of choices, completly oblivious to so many other choices. World of Warcraft, runescape, and Guild Wars* are not the only MMOs out there folks. *IMO not an MMO, thats for another thread though

http://www.joystiq.com/2008/07/14/final ... -xbox-360/ It will be coming out for both the 360 and PS3. I remember thinking a while ago that the new FF would make its way to the 360 and, well, looks like I was right. Thoughts?

The fact that he told them tells me he is putting it behind him instead of hiding it.

Lol yea pre-loading is hilarious, but fun if you have a class that can actually preload something... Though I don't know if Barbs CoS is worse than a Bear Shaman pre-loading. Bear Shamans are freaking scary at 70+, hitting 5k+ through three shields...and healing...>.> Edit: 20 minutes till E3 is streamed live on G4tv. =) Barb CoS X crit == 10k dmg. Hell even non crit they hit like 10 times for 700dmg each hit.

Mathcore? :shock: Do tell more. Thanks :P

[bleep] preloading combos man. Last week I literally had a barb charge me, twist around behind me, and lob my ToS's head off. Level 80 vs level 80. I didn't even get a chance to react. At least against barbs who don't preload I can stun them, or something. Although there is a certain appeal of being able to run up to guys, use a 2 button combo (as my HoX) and destroy them. I've been making ToS's think twice about rolling the class. 8-)

Goddamn Mozart, that talentless hack. I liked your first reply before I refreshed the thread better :cry:

Yeah I don't see a problem with a kid having a phone. Surely it helps rest the parents mind for when the kid is at a friends house (in case of an accident) or anywhere else. Some of you would be surprised how much just having a cellphone handy could help. Now when parents start giving their kids an iPhone at 10 (or 13 even) then I'll be concerned. However some cellphones are so cheap there is no reason not to have one.

I have to agree with you. I can understand if it was a big offense, but to the looks of it it seems like he has changed. A lot of people make stupid decisions as a kid and later regret it. I, personally, hate that there are so many ways that your past can haunt you because of a previous screw up.

For me it's not as much of a matter of it offending me, because it didn't. However the problem is that a lot of this community is not mature enough to handle a topic like that, and it usually just ends up bringing in all of the immature kids because OMG IT TALKS ABOUT SEX. Because of this it turns into a bunch of 13 year old kids posting far fetched stories or just plain awkward and odd stuff that isn't funny or amusing at all, just kind of sad. And most of the funny pictures thread sucked, I think I could maybe get a page of material out there that wasn't a motivational poster or some image with the word FAIL or OWNED plastered on it.

It's more of a bug if anything. Good sin's do just fine in both PvE and PvP. They do, however, take more skill than barbs to play. Either way I think it's a bug currently that was introduced that last patch, dunno what it is exactly though. Like I said I haven't had much a problem with my HoX, and they're usually considered squishier than a sin.

Could you be any more ignorant if you tried? -.- [bleep], I mean it's not like Musical composition is a talent or anything. :roll: What does it matter if its mostly computer-generated? I don't know if you're adding on my point or arguing it, but that's my point. It doesn't matter.

You need to add a PSU to that build. Apart from that is a good one. Hah, yeah I do. I was wracking my brain because I knew I missed something. Thermaltank 550W $109. Not sure if there is a better, cheaper one, around there. Went with Thermaltank because I've had experience with em.

The only people who really ever posted in the "ever caught them" thread were pretty crap members anyways. Easier to ban the topic.
