  1. It isn't the media per se that's biased in the favour of Israel - rather the american government. You say Israel has fought some wars by itself - this is true. Palestine has fought all its wars by itself. Let me give you an analogy. You work for a long time to buy a new computer. You have it for a while, you like it, you use it, you treat it well. All of a sudden, your parents decide that since your brother used to have a computer 10 years ago which broke, he should get yours, no questions asked. How would that make you feel? I see Hamas as a resistance movement. Although they have long passed what qualifies as legitimate resistance and now borders on terrorism, their cause is not without base. Israel was theirs, and had been for hundreds and hundreds of years. Because of the horrible atrocities that happened to the Jews during WW2, their interests were put above that of the palestinians, and they were given land that their claim to was in ancient history at best. I doubt there will ever be peace between Israel and Palestine - Hamas is far too radical, and Israel has proven constantly willing to stoop as low as they need to protect their own interests. Best thing to do now is combine the countries, split them in half down the middle, make one half Israel, one half palestine, and hope for the best.
  2. Attempting to wrestle access + vba to my will at work. Considering I knew zero VB going in, it's going pretty well.
  3. Haha. Something tells me they wouldn't be afraid of you. Your friends are [bleep]ing douchebags, sorry but its not ok to steal someone elses stuff because you can't get off your [wagon] and work for stuff. Sooner or later, they will steal from the wrong person, and regret it very much. They ARE the wrong person. And by friends, I kind of just mean people I am aquainted with. I use the term "friend" loosely because I don't really form deep friendships with anyone, but rather I like to associate informally with many people. And yes, they are scum. But thats what you get when you grow up in a hometown where it is easier to score crack than booze in highschool. One of my friends is in jail now for robbing an old woman in a grocery store parking lot. Lol. Fortunately I have gotten out of my town and went to a respectable university. Still, I keep contact with the people I spent 12 years of my life with. A quote from Star Wars for you: "There's always a bigger fish...". There really is. They may consider themselves invulnerable, but if this neighbourhood is as bad as you say it is, there will be someone worse.
  4. Some people take gaming too seriously, what else can I say? Good thing my guild is casual.
  5. I brush once a day, without fail. Rarely floss or mouthwash.

  7. Almost 5k gs. After doing mini raids with the guild tonight I should be good for ICC on the weekend :D
  8. Like I said, she did that because you're pathetic. She knows she can come back to you whenever she wants and get whatever she wants from you, then leave you when it's not amusing anymore and because she knows you'll basically do whatever she wants. Yeah, and I recall you (RpgGamer) want to be a psychologist. You should be able to understand the basic psychology behind all that... This. The longer you stay with her, the more it will hurt in the long run. Grow some balls and dump her, for good.
  9. Reroute the gas tank hose into a bucket of paint thinner.
  10. Sweet car, love all the detail and pics! I was gonna say you need new paint, and then I saw you planned to do that. And thank God you didn't get shiny chrome rims. Those things are ugly as [bleep].
  11. Sounds like WoW to me. Would play again...but I don't want to.
  12. I would hope that anytime a group of people try to control another group, or business, or website, it would NOT be tolerated (or considered funny). While I agree with you that I think it is an unreasonable demand of Jagex to try to control advertizing, look at the positive side - getting on Jagex's "Platinum list", however biased or unrealistic that list will be - probably is far worth the advertizing and exposure that tip.it gets, compared to the small sacrifice of some ad changing. Once again, I have full confidence in the admins to put their foot down if Jagex demands the Polish corridor.
  13. Evony Ads - you underestimate young teen males who like cleavage. Nothing, we will be platinum in a months time or so. Something's gotta give...why don't they just make us platinum now? They know we deserve it.
  14. My question is...if removing the adverts only got us to gold, what are we having to sacrifice for platinum? I see that having this info beforehand makes removing the adverts more appealing, but to be honest this list isn't about quality at all, it's about being free advertising for Jagex.
  15. being Jewish, that puts me at a 1/100 to a black person ratio, and as many know, african-americans are quite the minority. So yeah. I'm a small minority either way. I also read somewhre that within the next 30 years, white people will be a minority in the US, and Mexicans/Hispanics will be the majority. But then on a world wide scale, it's the Asains that are majority. It's all about sample size ladies and gentlemen Jewish people can't be white? :/ That's like saying I'm a minority because of my height or because of where I live. I'm pretty sure less than 1% of the population is within 1/4 cm of my height and only 4 people live in my house (Out of the 6.8 billion people in the world)... I guess everybody is a minority in some way :/... Unless I completely misinterpreted that (Very likely) What he's saying is that african-americans are a minority...and that jews are a smaller minority still.
  16. The screenshots I saw had just as small of a spellbar :? By default there is one 1x22 bar at the bottom but in the configuration you can make it 2x22 bars so 44 buttons on the bottom. You can add an extra 12 to the side if this isn't enough. Lol, I installed it, I didn't really like it though so I uninstalled it. I don't think I deleted all the cached files though so basically at the moment I have this hybrid interface of tukui and the basic wow one. It looks weird as [bleep] but is practically perfect lmao. I wonder how long I can expect it to last? Before the cache deletes itself or something....not really too sure how it works.
  17. I take it this is some kind of hidden subliminal suggestion I engage in its use?

    I would but I have a new computer, and I haven't installed it.

    But I'll try to go on..

    Just for you baby ;)

  18. I knew someone was going to make the Hitler comparison lmao. Oh well, best course of action is to appease them now, but have the "gtfo bat" ready for their next request.
  19. The screenshots I saw had just as small of a spellbar :?
  20. Hmm, very nice....I don't know what I'll do interface wise...all I really want is a two row spellbar extending all the way across the bottom lol, so I can have absolutely everything there.
  21. Very interesting. I'll download it when I get home, and run it in a vm.
  22. Lol I made it to 80 with no addons, and still don't have any. The only thing about the default UI that really annoys me is the tiny spell bar.
  23. Removing GoogleAds is something that has been considered for a long time, mainly because they have a limit to the number of sites that can be blacklisted and we hit that limit probably over two years ago. By eliminating GoogleAds, that issue is no longer prominent. Personally, I don't feel Tip.it is bending over backwards here to cater to Jagex, but that their request gave the necessary push to look more closely into advertising and maybe even look for some more providers that do not serve up Gold selling and competitor ads. This is mainly what I gather from this. Yes, it raises a few eyebrows to see Jagex doing this, but I'm not concerned personally. I realize googleads isn't necessarily the best out there, and I realize about the limit. I also realize there will be no negative revenue connotations from this. I guess my objections are more in principle than practical. But as Tripsis said, I am sure that were Jagex to institute censorship demands the admin team would be willing to tell them where to go.
