  1. Nah. It's worse for the fish to suffer the pain than to simply die. Confession; I find hawt teachers really distracting :(
  2. Growing old is fine until the day they get alzheimer's. The worst feeling ever, seriously.
  3. Hence sometimes. But I don't shower that fast, I take at least 10 minutes ;/
  4. To the select few people who actually play lots of castle wars. CLS works with the profound armor, but the Maul does not. It maxes at about the same as the maul because of this. For meleeing, I believe CLS is best at castle wars. Really only a very select scenario tho. Swh is the best weapon at Castlewars.
  5. I'm 15. I think differently every other week. Remember how eager I used to be to put a bullet in the brain of everyone with personality flaws? But this is something I've thought about for a long time. Anyways, I have to pay taxes to know that the income tax is BS? Wouldn't always be easy, of course, but I'd do pretty much anything to avoid decades of STRESS. No way of life is ever easy, but of all the choices, I prefer simplicity. Of course, I am human, and I would like permanent housing. I point once again to the idea of a small house, and pretty much the same entertainment devices I have now. I'm good at living off of a small amount of money, so my biggest expense would be the electric. If I can get a decent, relatively easy going job that can support this, I'd be a happy camper. I'd also like to have a little extra left over from each paycheck, as I'd love to travel. I'd want to visit the capital cities of every major power from WWII. Can we seriously get back on topic. In response to your post; http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Income_tax I hardly think you have been paying many taxes, aside from VAT. Anything the government provides, be it paved roads or a bus service, health service, etc, is covered by the tax. Tax is necessary for a country to work fluidly. Confession; I sometimes wear deodorant instead of taking a shower when I'm in a rush. :/
  6. You're missing the basic point. Because we're pro-life, we're not allowed to eat, breathe, or drink because it harms other organisms. Anyone who's not pro-life isn't held to the same standard, because they're not pro-life. Sheesh, wish you all would understand that. :rolleyes: Also on the subject of protecting "potential" life - many coastal states have ordinances against disturbing sea-turtle nests. Some places fine as much as $1000 for potentially disrupting nesting grounds (like, fines for lights on after dark because it might disturb the turtles). Remember, baby turtles are more valuable than baby humans. This. It's hypocrisy like this that makes me laugh. Plus the Greenpeace types - oh my God a whale is being hunted? Even if you're pro-choice it's hardly a lot to kill a whale compared to the millions that die in third world countries... Don't get me started. "It may be nothing more than sizeism that pressure groups are formed for saving the whale but never the ear-mite. Dr. Lister, director general of the Wildlife Trust has complained that ' we get lots of sponsorship for otters and red squirrels, but none for the narrow-headed ant' "
  7. Well, GM in another field in itself. But mass production on any industry will not be just strawberries and cream, there will be problems that surround health somewhere along the line. For vegetables, it's pesticides, for meat, it's hormones and antibiotics. I think it's fine to have 'meatless Monday's' or whatever, I just don't really see any reason to completely abandon meat related products. Especially Veganism. -shudders at thought-
  8. Argh! The feeling you get when you wake up early and super energised, going back to sleep and unable to wake up again. It's painful =/
  9. No I wouldn't but we are talking about a game not dogs. And you agree with my point that it would be a complete disregard for fun. So I don't train that way. Simple. You are simply criticising me for deciding to link skills together instead of training your way and treating them individually. You do it that way then fine you do that. That's not my idea of fun, thats not the way I want to do it, I'd generally not 'want to lose out', and for me its a short term approach so therefore I CHOOSE not to do it. I'm not sure why you're finding this so difficult to comprehend. You implied that it's impossible to train them individually, therefore you are wrong. And there is something called a 'Comparison'. It means taking two things, and trying to illustrate a relationship between the two. Read, please.
  10. There's nothing illogical about it. It may seem extreme, but not illogical. Look at it this way: IF you see an unborn baby as a human life, and you want to protect it at all costs, why should the means of its conception matter? In fact, I'd say it's more illogical to call yourself pro-life but then make an exception for cases such as rape. A life is a life. Well, do pro-life people kill any bugs/insects/viral invaders/plants? Even using anti-biotics is killing. And to say that bacteria isn't a life is just size-ism. Oh - And there are other rights a person has. It's just the deciding factor of which rights triumphs which.

  12. There's also the case of when Pills + Condoms have been used, but fails, which may lead to an exception if a ban is in place. It's hard for the government to really decide, it's a touchy subject and it really differs on society. There are places with a 70% pro-choice, and other places that are less than 20% pro-choice. I think the woman's right to privacy, and rights of her own body should technically override the right to life of a unborn fetus. It is, still, unborn and unaware of its surroundings, unable to feel pain for at least the first 10 weeks. Hmm.. There are people so pro-life that they think a woman should suffer the mental anguish of carrying a rapist's baby, which is illogical to me.
  13. Too much bias, too little time. I don't use drugs, so hard to talk about it really.
  14. Not exactly sure where you’re trying to go with the ‘having fun is efficient’. According to some being efficient comes first and the fun is negligible and therefore calling players noob/idiot and all other names . That was the point I was making in an earlier post, in case you missed it. Durrrr. Secondly, your example may be true, but it’s also flawed. I could spin the 500 flax and use it for Fletch therefore am I being more efficient for training 2 skills and saving cash on bowstrings later? Or player ‘A’ decides they want a fletch cape so therefore they buy the materials for 99, which is quick, but has no additional effects to Woodcutting or Crafting skills. Isn’t that inefficient and, IMO, much less fun to do? Spending money isn't saving money if there's no real positive effect and you've a cape that you spent 'x' amount on but very little else to show for it. I obtained 99 craft by making jewellery and battlestaves. I got everything myself and it had a positive effect on my thieving (gems), Mining and Smithing (gold), Crafting (orbs) and Mage (orb charging, alcing jewellery). So in the end I become more skilled and profit well. Most importantly, I had fun doing it. Define the term "Efficient" and we'll go from there. No point arguing in circles. Sometimes I define it as 'Whatever makes me happy', or 'A rational decision' as being 'efficient'. Sometimes I define it as 'To make best use of 'x' amount of time for a given goal'. "I am going to kill goblins for 5 hours because I love killing goblins" would be a rational decision, and 'efficient' in the sense that it is fun for you, and you will do it for 5 hours. (repeating what I said a few posts before) In the strict sense of efficiency, to obtain a goal within 'x' amount of time, it's wrong to say that spending cash is inefficient because of one simple thing; Time = Money. To waste time would be the same as wasting money, depending on how you value time. Currently, I don't have an account so I can't really say. But for a player like bladewing (Stringcheze), time would be 3m+/h. Training 2 skills at once is fine, but ignoring the fact that you can use the Grand Exchange as a much faster, easier alternative is simply ignorance. By spending time making bowstrings, you're losing potentially making 10 times more at Green dragons, or Frost Dragons. Fun is very subjective, so that factor can't really be argued. Hell, for some, dying with 2b risk in PvP is 'fun' and 'thrilling' (although I struggle to grasp that concept) Whilst being inefficient (in a time = money sense) isn't morally wrong or right, it really isn't your business to go about claiming that efficiency is bad and whatever. It's a silly generalisation to claim that efficient people call others 'noobs/idiot' (which in itself isn't even offensive) and other names. There is a feature on RuneScape called an 'Ignore List'. It works by filtering any messages they say, and not showing in your chatscreen, or above their heads on your screen. It's a very useful feature, try using it. It's also funny, because 'according to some', efficiency is stupid and everyone should play the game slowly because it's 'more fun' (which is actually subjective). Skillcapes itself are just a status symbol, a jumble of pixels arranged in a fashion that shows you have spent some time on RuneScape, dedicated to training a skill. There isn't really much to show for any skillcape, really. Oh, and this is the last post I'm making before I go to bed, so don't expect a reply any time soon =/. Edit - What bladewing said. Illogical arguments are illogical

    Nothing interesting happened. It's the weekend, and it's boring as usual. I want a job, tbh. What jobs can a 16 year old get with 5 Gcse's (Britain)?
  16. I divided by zero
  17. That feeling you get when you want to crack a knuckle, but it doesn't click. Same applies to every other joint you can 'click'.
  18. depending on what level they are, sending in he parental form might be a better idea. No.
  19. Nobody plays the game to be 'efficient' per se. Most players play the game to have fun. To be told that because you're not being efficient you're playing the game wrong is so wide of the mark of playing a game in the first place. On your time is money concept, this is also off the mark. Doing things in the quickest time in the game doesn't always equal money. Thats why people spend money to buy skills to gain cooking/herblore/fletch etc. They go for 99's in skills in the quickest times possible and therefore spend substantial amounts of cash to do it. In terms of money, thats not efficiency. Even going for total efficiency isn't as black and white and suggested. How wrong you are. Having fun is efficient. Durrr. How many times do I have to tell you? Besides, on the time = money concept - Spending substantial amounts of money is technically saving money, depending on situation. Would you rather spend 500 hours spinning flax, or 50 making dhides? Sometimes the cost of time just doesn't justify the money saved in GP. We do not live in a ideal world, total efficiency doesn't exist.
  20. Just make a new account, not worth waiting a year
  21. This is a contradiction to what you've previously posted, below in case you forgot. Are you now saying the best method is one that really matters to the individual player, rather than 'you are not efficient so you are WRONG!!'? There are really two different kinds of the concept 'Efficient'. Strictly, in the Time = Money sense, he's right. In the other sense, where every rational decision is being efficient, is also correct. The meanings are usually filtered through the internet, much like how "Pyramid Schemes" are called "Merchanting", which it's not. There really isn't much to say about this anymore, mostly echoing what was previously said 2-3 pages back.
  22. 120wpm on typeracer. I am using a really crappy keyboard that the laptop came with, wondering how cheap a Das Keyboard is... >.>
