  1. I think this post should be in the TWR forum but I have a reply thought of so I'll speak my mind now. Multi-clanning is a phenomenon widely discouraged among the clan community. I consider it to be "NH" to be in more than one clan at once. However the TWR rules about multi-clanning only serve to help clarify how the TWR works. In order for there to be fewer disputes, it makes sense not to allow clans with members already in a TWR(country clan, team, or even main clan) to join. This is simply out of necessity as from my understanding there have been many disputes about this. If a person is in Collision (not on the TWR) and in a TWR clan, it really isn't the business of anyone involved in the TWR, as nothing is affected. Tip.it (the TWR in particular) shouldn't have to enforce a no multi-clanning policy, as that is really up to the discretion of the Clan leaders and the member in question.
  2. I used to think that, but after studying Java for a year I haven't noticed much they can't do. As you said though, I think it might be with the load on the VM, and Java isn't the most memory efficient language.

    I know of a few other ways that a girl can get pregnant, but what ones do you know of? Explain? I can think of a few things but they are pretty out there.
  4. How the hell have you gotten a copy of The Soundhouse Tapes? If it is real, how have you been able to afford it? It costs a crapload of cash. I know there's an enormous amount of pirated copies of it, which looks the same. But if that really is one of the originals - Nice! ------ I'm surprised to see so many newly registered people/with so few posts, posting a picture of themselves the first thing they do. It is real. Bought it from eBay more than a year ago, and was kind of surprised that it truly was the real deal. I'm an avid Iron Maiden collector. And working makes you money. Wow, Soundhouse Tapes outa nowhere! If you don't mind, how much did it cost? Over $500. True. I'm a huge maiden fan, although not much into the memorabilia.
  5. No... the USA is a 16 year old kid willing to use a shotgun to stop Jimmy (a 13 year old) from building a gun in his basement and bringing it to school in order to kill USA's sister Jenny. Both interesting analogies, I think that we know Jimmy is pulling Jessie's hair but think that Jimmy is going to kill Jessie later.

    Didn't work for Virgin Mary :shame: Oh yeah. Cause the Bible is really a factual book :roll:. Seriously, why bring that up? Trying to be funny? Abstinence being 100% effective is a fact in no way influenced by religion. :thumbup:
  7. Great to see how much you guys have accomplished. I've always had a respect for you based on your community and warring. Congrats on 5 years guys! :)
  8. Laikrob has higher combat but Ninane is more active, so Ninane. Pan or Stu?

    75% if you don't know what you're doing for condoms, 98% if you use it properly, birth control (depending on the brand) is 99.9% effective, because their can be a fault with the pills, or something can screw up. That is if you use it properly, and don't miss any days, or screw up with the scheduling of it, and there's always a minor chance of a defect in the pill. It's always recommended to use at least 2 forms of birth control, namely the pill, and condoms, or condoms and spermicide, or condom + diaphragm. I've never heard 98% for condoms, condom companies themselves won't even tell you that. Do you have a source? 98% is if you use them perfectly, 92-95% is if you use them good, I didn't write that out well. I could find a source, I read a lot of articles about condoms a few weeks back, I'll see if it's in my history. I also might not have remembered that correctly, I'll look. Can't find it, disregard the 98% thing. Ok. The highest I've heard is 90% if used 100% correctly.

  12. It hasn't stopped them so far. More and more it seems that, like the league of nations before it, the UN is a lame duck, without any real power to make a difference. I've heard that NK is trying to get negotiations started to formally end the Korean war, and thats why they are using these shows of force. I doubt that is the reason; the war has been at truce since the US left(though NK said the truce doesn't stand now so we could technically attack them :roll:) and its not like their were problems with the truce. Exactly, it ended in a truce, not a peace treaty. The fact that they are still technically at war doesn't constitute a "problem"?
  13. Well Dizzle, when it happens. We'll miss you. I just love the unnecessary insults on OT. Almost feels like Roberts back. Well, to be honest, your post was pretty unnecessary, and a little..."dumb"? ;)

    I just don't think that it's stressed enough what "90% effective" means. People hear that and think "Oh wow, it's almost 100, I'm fine". Look at the other 10%: pregnancy or a life altering disease. I still don't feel (and I was exposed to sex ed in school) that those facts were well represented, it seemed like they didn't want you to think about that.

    I believe we were told that condoms were 90% effective when the right size was used, and properly. Birth control was in the high 90's and a little math lesson that 90% + 90% doesn't equal 100%, nor does condom + condom. I think that's what we were told.. it was a while ago so the percentages may be off. And what did they tell you about abstinence? :P

    The problem I have with teaching sex ed in schools is that it is presented as a be all and end all solution to pregnancy and std's. I agree that a huge majority of kids won't practice abstinence, but the way condoms etc are presented is as a 100% solution, when it isn't the case. People need to be aware that there are ways to be "safer" but that abstinence is the only truly 100% effective method, and then let them decide.
