Need skill calc for clan web site
There isnt a way i could just ask for permission to use the calculators here on tip.it? Maybe find someone to code one for me? The calculators aren't embeddable - meaning that the only way you could use them on your website would be to actually take relevant files and use them on your site. The administrators own the rights to those caluclators and they aren't just handed out, they are for use on tip.it only. You could try to find someone to code for you, however it will be fairly expensive as most programmers tend to charge upwards of $30 an hour.

Parents
I agree with this. Paw - I agree in that a good family should be able to deal with issues - but it's much harder for just a single parent to do that. It must have been very hard on your mother, and while she may have managed it and managed to raise you in a pretty stable family it just isn't the same as being raised with both parents. And no, having one parent doesn't automatically make you a criminal, but it highly increases the likelihood.

Yeah, linking back to tip.it is probably your best option, remaking all the skill calculators would be pretty time consuming,especially if you'd like them to have the same depth that tip.it's calculators do.

Parents
What is your definition of a stable home, then?

Parents
Did you know that multitudes of studies have been done on criminals? A huge number of them were in unstable households growing up - without a stable father and mother figure. Saying that being raised in an unstable household isn't detrimental to the healthy development of a child is naive at best. EDIT: Demoliboy, that's more of an issue of parenting style than anything.

Sound Card issues.
While he couldn't buy "any old motherboard" he should be able to find some of the right dimensions to fit his case - or he could buy a new motherboard AND case, although if he were to do that he might as well buy the whole new computer.

Or he could just buy a new motherboard, that wouldn't be much more expensive and it would fix the problem in the long run.

If you mean the kind you can find on tip.it's website, I've never heard of any that are just free to use on your own site. Some calculators would be fairly simple to code (if you're good with coding) but others (combat calculator comes to mind) would be far more difficult.

The official World of Warcraft thread.
Everyone has their own opinion, you need to back it up though. My first and only toon to 80 is my pally, I dps and tank with it. Experiment with specs and the Ret spec can be extremely useful in raids. Especially if you manage to spec Aura Mastery. Tanking can get boring if you outgear the dps though. Hit a button every few seconds and you're fine. Tis why I rarely PuG, keeps me on my toes and maintains my interest. Also I use zero add ons :3 I haven't leveled any other class to 80 so I can't make comparisons, but I never found it to be boring - except tanking low level dungeons with [cabbage]ty pug groups. Although the dps rotation is pretty straightforward I always found it pretty exciting while raiding.

Linux Questions
You can install it onto your hard drive, definitely. I'm no linux expert but the learning curve will definitely depend on the distribution you use. In terms of applications to get, I'll let one of the people who actually uses linux on their primary machine answer that.

The official World of Warcraft thread.
As you're new to the game, I can almost understand where you're coming from with that opinion, but warriors at later levels have MANY different abilities in EACH talent spec. Judging a class before its reached at least level 40-50 isnt exactly 'accurate' opinion. So true. Even Paladins suck at low levels, you can't do anything. You can't truly judge a class until you've played it to 80.

Get used to it unfortunately, the pug system is full of idiots.

"I want a girlfriend/boyfriend", and other such relationship advice
That rule doesn't work too well at young ages. Nor at old.

"I want a girlfriend/boyfriend", and other such relationship advice
I can only speak from personal experience, but all I hear directed at people 15-25 who date someone 2 years + younger is "cradle robber".

"I want a girlfriend/boyfriend", and other such relationship advice
I have seen people of younger age appear to be more mature on the outside, then once you actually get to know them you realize that after all, they are younger. There is a certain stigma in society about dating people with a large age difference, so that's probably a contributing factor.
-
"I want a girlfriend/boyfriend", and other such relationship advice
I don't think that's a problem, particularly at your age. You're an adult, it's natural to not be satisfied with the maturity level of someone who's in the middle of high school. As you get older, the age difference becomes less important.

Nigerian Couple = White Baby
Just because the article says so doesn't make it true. The coincidence of blue eyes, very pale skin and blonde hair is too much evidence to ignore. On the other hand, it must be possible for black parents to produce a white child or vice versa due to genetic mutation, otherwise everyone would have the same colour skin. The article mentions doctors performed genetic tests and found that the child was not albino. The kid doesn't even look like an albino, just a normal white child.

Broadband monthly download limit
Youtube uses a fair amount per video watched. If you're watching one three minute video a day on 320x resolution, you won't see much bandwidth usage. However, if you're watching two hours of movies on HD, that can be just as bad as torrenting a full movie. Point: Streaming doesn't always save bandwidth.

Nigerian Couple = White Baby
Did anyone actually read the article? It clearly stated the kid is not albino.

Broadband monthly download limit
40gb is a fair amount - with only two people using it you'd need to be doing some serious torrenting or youtubing to hit that limit.

Jewish woman claims rape.
You suffer from CSI Syndrome - something jurors are regularly warned against. Often times there is no solid concrete DNA evidence in these cases like you see on CSI.

Forum Problem
Similar thing happens to me on chrome. I'd always attributed it to my increasingly crappy connection and old laptop, but I don't mind refreshing every now and then.
