  1. Didn't we already go over this? Non-combat skills are useful for one thing and one thing only-- Arbitrary quest requirements.

     

    Feeder skill. Pking was one of many consumers in the game (and still is to a lesser extent: Bounty Hunter) while the 3 skills you mentioned are feeder skills into the game; they drive a large part of the game.

     

     

     

    Problems:

     

    Take out those skills, and you'll make several refinement skills (like smithing, cooking, fletching) obsolete...

     

    OR

     

    ...you'll have to turn what's left, combat, into a feeder skill just like in MapleStory. Somehow I don't see that working in Runescape with its limited geographic size and limited spawns. I don't see too much room to put a ton of monsters that drop raw materials. Even if you made fewer monsters drop more material, you would find that everybody would compete to kill the monsters, causing problems.

  2. There's not much depth to the pixels, especially #2. See how the sky is a very bright blue? It makes it look as though it's like some sky backdrop placed smack behind the character.

     

     

     

    You could try to make it a more subtle, faded blue like a real sky and make a horizon.

  3. In arguments, one must have representative examples that show the reality of things, not generalizations. The thesis in the letter, which seems to be something along the lines that atheists cause all the evil in the world, is far too oversimplified and does not represent the reality of things in the world, and thus cannot be proven.

     

     

     

    In short, the letter fails. Atheists shouldn't stereotype Christians and others, but it's just as bad the other way around.

    Yeah, and I don't see any way around that cop-out...unless you can show me one. The thing is, God as we seem to be trying to talk about him is the spiritual God that can't be proven by the 5 senses and stuff, so I'm really unsure as to what logic's going to do except show that it can neither prove nor disprove God...unless you're trying to disprove something like a Bible's description of a certain God/god by falsifying each God/god's respective Bible. Yeah, methinks that my sleep-deprived brain is confused too ::' .

    Sorry dude, but you're being a bit emotional there. This isn't exactly a flamefest (for the most part), and is (mostly) a discussion. You're telling us to just live with our own opinions?

     

     

     

    If you really care that much, please put up a better reason than "it hurts other people's feelings", because I don't think the serious debaters here are out to do so. Infact, I would say that a reason not to debate here is that there isn't a mediator, we're not professional theologians and junk, etc.

  6. Before I even try to enter the discussion, I have a few questions:

     

     

     

    Who (which God) are we arguing about? Not every God is the same. Yes, the Christian God is different from say...the God of Orthodox Judaism and etc etc.

     

     

     

    There (in the first 8 pgs that I read) seems to be a neverending cycle of no-God people trying to enforce logic on an omni-potent/present/scient God who made everything. How does this work, exactly? (neutral question. Don't assume that I'm asking in any kind of sarcastic tone)

     

     

     

    I can see how both sides are arguing (upto the end of those 8 pages), and neither side seems to be talking about the same thing, and some people on the same sides don't even seem to be discussing the same god or God. Infact, a lot of people seem to be trying to talk about the Christian God but have a very, very skewed view of him. So very skewed. Laughably skewed. Also, some seem to be talking about a totally random god

     

     

     

    Oh, and I laugh at all of you who post something along the lines of "religion is just something that people believe because they want to" or something irrelevant like that. Stop posting that stuff.
