The official World of Warcraft thread.
Orgrimmar is probably my favorite personally. I like UC too but its a pain to get around sometimes. Silvermoon isn't bad but I don't like as much.

Brothers copy their older brothers nearly exactly? :P
I should add, the only thing my little brother sort of 'copied' from me is my crappy work ethic. I was (and still am) a very lazy student, and he is too. The problem is I cared enough about school to still pull it all together -- he just has seemed to stop really caring. The more I think of it though the more I see similarities in the two of us. It's funny really, if you would have just looked at us and our likes/dislikes and such side by side you'd never think we could get so along together. I mean, he's a skater kid who's a bit more into the 'cool crowd' where as I'm that gamer nerd who enjoys programming and digital artwork. :lol: If we're hanging out when the family goes to the mall though (we just break off on our own) we get together well, haha. Really though it seems like a bit of a trend with people here. The younger one kind of takes some stuff from the older, but ends up being totally opposite anyways. :P

Home built PC?
Really? Mines pretty damn quiet to be honest. (550w thermaltank).

Rate my New Sig
its the classic phrase... "I Don't know art, But I know what I like" whats wrong with having simplicity ? Nothing is wrong with simplicity, if it works. It doesn't work here. The composition is very basic and the text doesn't flow with the sig at all. A minimalistic sig needs to have a good composition and, more importantly, an interesting one because otherwise its just bland. It doesn't have anything else to fall back on. So to answer your question, no nothing is wrong with simplicity -- but this sig doesn't do simplicity correctly.

Some paintings and an old drawing
Very great work there. I probably like the first the best personally, the colors are great in it.

Home built PC?
Great build there sniper. Also I can back you up on Thermaltake, I've been using one (550w or so IIRC) in my rig and its worked great, no problems at all. As far as case's go really just make sure that its sturdy enough that it won't break easily, and its always good to have a case that has a lot of airflow in it. (especially if you plan on overclocking a case with good airflow is a must.) In my experience I've liked my Apevia case so far -- pretty sturdy and great airflow, the entire rig runs at about 79-80 degrees F on full load (no OC, but yeah). And that is with stock heatsinks.

What are you listening to right now!?
^ Yeah easily one of the most atmospheric bands I've ever heard. Listening to Bathory's Nordland I + II albums in the entity atm. Before this I always had Bathory's black metal stuff, and never really heard much of his viking metal stuff. I have to say his viking metal material (Nordland, Hammerheart, ect.) is [bleep]ing brilliant. It just makes me wanna jump up with a sword ... somewhere.

Leaving Offtopic, lock please
What :lol: ? Lol that is hilarious. If I had room for another quote in my sig that would go in it. Abyssalwhip never fails to prove his stupidity.

Atheist v. God (Real Life Essay)
Who could have guessed that the unique 'lil anime Christian kid would agree to such a thing. Chances are, this post is a troll. If so -- too much work as its not funny at all. If not -- the OP is an idiot. I honestly can not even start to debate what he is saying here because it is so far away from the truth. Certainly its much easier on me to just say that the OP is ignorant, and the fact that considering most of the world (IIRC) that has some sort of power are run by those who are religious a lot of his comments about the war are completely off base as well. Whatever though, probably just some troll. This post is simply too ignorant to not bed.

The official World of Warcraft thread.
Man how long you been playing that toon zon? I'm lvl 51 and a half atm, just made this guy 3 weeks ago -- and I couldn't play for 3-4 days out of those 3 weeks :D. Anyways, lvl 51 atm with 311g. Looking forward to getting some thorium stacks, cheapest stack of ore I saw was like 37g and the bars were like 55g easily. (which makes sense ofc). So yeah, can't wait to get a bunch of stacks of that, yay money. :D Other than that questing in Un'goro atm... I just wanna get to outlands already lol.

First Quick Vector~Up for grabs
fyi its not a vector, its still a raster image. If you scaled it upwards it'd look really bad where as a vector would stay the same quality. Just wanted to point that out. Anyways, its ok I guess -- but seems like you didn't put that much thought into the placement of everything.

What are you listening to right now!?
Hehe, Last week I was rocking out to Chrono trigger stuff constantly. :P Agalloch- Limbs Can't believe I never knew these guys were from the U.S. They probably are one of the best metal bands out there today, simply amazing.

Brothers copy their older brothers nearly exactly? :P
Yes and no really. Lets just say that he takes certain parts from me. For example, music. He still listens to all this emo stuff and popular rap but I got him into metal, and pretty obscure metal at times too. Also I used to skateboard, so when I started I think he wanted to try too. Now he's a huge skateboarder and, although I quit, he still goes on with it. He shares some of my same tastes in games too -- although he really doesn't play many that more. I was the one who got him into runescape years ago just to quit a bit later, and he stuck with it haha. So sort of really.

Made my own paint program... (BETA RELEASED!!)

Cheating at Tests.
Yeah; I actually have a hard time remembering someone from high school/college who did not copy homework from others. We even had social networks under the teacher's noses, for exchanging homework (like if I sucked at math but were good in english or biology, we'd do each other's homework occassionally), or paying a geek a few bucks to do our homework & aid him in some other way like picking him for an easy/physically non-demanding task in sports class etc. Most homework is just repeating of what you've already learned, so I don't even see it as cheating. But since it's something you'll need to do to pass classes even if you learn nothing from it, you might just as well get it done one way or another. Yeah man, I don't count copying homework as cheating -- I did it all the time. 0 risk of getting caught and most times its just a pain.

CoD4 Player Arrested? (Call of Duty)
And we know he was joking -- how, exactly? :roll: And stop comparing this to other stuff that is not the same thing. The arrest for making a counter strike map of the school, that was stupid. All of the contraversy over JFK Reloaded and Super Columbine RPG, also stupid. I hate it when the media blames games and more importantly when the media does stupid stuff as well. I hate it when the police force locks someone up because of extreme paranoia. However, if it sounded like a threat it sounded like a threat. Please remember that it was just two other gamers like you and me that made the phone call because they were worried it could be for real. Again, you just look at the medium the threat was made over and dismiss it entirely. You think, well, it was over a game so obviously its fake 'cuz games are fake -- or some kind of skewed logic. A threat can be real no matter what the medium. I have heard times where someone on the something awful forums posted about help to kill someone, and actually did go through with it. Yet, it was just something silly over the internet -- right? My point is people have to use good judgement. I was not there to listen to this guy on CoD 4, nor were you. You have no idea of his tone of voice or anything of the situation at all. Instead, you just assume that this is just another incident of those 'darn stupid policemen' with out knowing all of the story. I was glad that these two people who reported him, quite frankly, had the damn balls to do it. They cared enough in light of recent tragedies to possibly stop another one. And, yes, it probably was all in vain. Chances are the guy would not have shot up his school, chances are he probably was making a joke. But for all those who are joking, how many are actually serious? Also, almost missed this. Your freedom of speech -- oh my! I'm sorry but you do not have the damn freedom to issue DEATH THREATS no matter the medium. Again, as in an earlier post, it wasn't like he was saying he'd kill the guys he was playing against. If he got arrested for saying he'd kill some guy who is half way across the world that would be stupid, because he has no means of finding out where he lives and chances are no means of getting over there. But issuing a threat about something he is near is something taken seriously no matter what. Again, I ask: would you turn in someone who seemed suspicious and you heard talking about shooting up the school, if you were next to him in real life? Or would you just ignore it thinking it as merely a joke.

Part of doing a project for school is doing your own damn research. If its your favorite band no doubt you'd be able to look this information up yourself. We aren't here to do your homework.

Casino Royale
I like it, one of your best so far. I dunno about all of the people being in there though, seems maybe a bit too over the top -- but it looks good.

My name is Kashi and I approve of these .gifs
Ehh Nadril? If I did a copy of a painting originally done by Da Vinci, you don't say "Well that's not very original it's just a Da Vinci print." In this particular case you shouldn't look for originality since I said from the start that they were copies. Just judge them as copies. But if you don't think they look very good that's fine I guess. Just don't take off points for lack of creativity. The point is a trained monkey, with enough time and technical knowledge, can just 'copy' something. However just copying something doesn't take much artistic creativity, unless you're really adding to it. Alright, you wanna talk about originality. Renders nothing more than art theft. *gasp* I'm sorry. :( I don't use "renders" anymore, you fail at trying to make me look bad.
