  1. Sex is about pleasure, not love, not relationships. If you enjoy more having sex, which is meant to be enjoyed, with a fat chick than having sex with a not fat chick, and the fat chick consents sex, then what's wrong about it? You mean there's nothing wrong with trying to score with a fat chick, and name it something every guy has to do in order to become a man? Oh, and I assure you the vast majority of girls are not after one night stands, and even less are the inconfident girls- in order to score with those you'd practically have to decieve them.
  2. [hide] Say what? The international media isn't biased at all, I constantly see it cover Israeli fallacies and the like. I even think the latest "important" issue, of the passports, was way over-covered, and quite frankly, biased against Israel- even though Israel didn't do anything the USA, England, Belgium and China wouldn't do, Israel just got caught and the media celebrated over it. 2. Except many see it as legitimate, for some reason I'd never understand... 3. I can't believe you even seriously said that... I can assure you peace is not out of reach for anyone who wants it with Israel, and I have evidence to support that- Jordan and Eygept. I'd like to remind you that the pact with Eygept was formed with a very-right-wing-ish government on Israel's side. Ther reason a dual-state is not a possibility is- The majority of the Palestinians is not interested in it, even if they claim otherwise. Netanyahu presented his terms for a dual state and these were completely dismissed without the opportunity for serious discussion. I can tell you from my own biased opinion that the Palsetinians are not even after that, if dual-states would ever be achieved, they will NOT be satisfied, they want Israel completely out of there, and you can quote me on that. 4. I agree that the US has helped Israel countless times, but I assure you Israel went through serveral wars without definite support from the US, the most surprising one being the very first- Israel used practically CITIZENS to get through it, alongside weapons it bought from the Czech Republic (USA supported with some money, but nothing too serious), and Israel won with great success. 5. Israel earned the right to establish through fair votes in the UN. 6. With good reason may I add (I don't mean they don't want peace I mean that too many just DON'T want it). I can give you a shocking example here. A peace-wanting-arab that is the son of a "successful" Hamas leader, saw the much hatred on the Palestinian side, and saw it as unjust. He secretly joined the Israeli foces, and when discovered was wanted dead by his own father. Today the poor guy is heavily guarded by Israel with good reason- the second he gets free, he's dead. 7. Care to elaborate here? I assure you the illegal settlements could and can be stopped by the other side, if it would just agree to discuss ANYTHING without pre-made terms and conditions. (I numbered the responses so that its clear to what I'm responding) 1. Actually American media is very pro-Israel and American government is very pro-Israel. Obama's administration (I say administration because the prince has three puppeteers behind him) isn't so pro-Israel as Bush but it still is. And Israel got caught so the media had a field day on that specific issue but it doesn't make it any less a wrong thing to do because other countries would do it. 2. Some may see it as legitimate but their power isn't from popular sovereignty, it's from being a bully. 3. The reason why Egypt made a pact with Israel is because they got whipped and it was beneficial. Jordan is Israel friendly because the Palestinians tried to take Jordan and His Majesty expelled them in the Black September, now they're the burden of Lebanon and the Urduni would rather not deal with them again. Many Palestinians do want peace, it isn't their fault they're represented by belligerent terrorists. And I wouldn't blame them if they were not satisfied by a two state resolution, they were there and then uprooted. If you mean dual-state as in for both groups to live under the same government, the Israelis would never do that because they harbor the misconception they've been granted the land when they really just use a high hand to keep it from those who lived there. 4. Israel would have been smashed to pieces and the Jews expelled by the 70s if the US didn't fund them, particularly when Nixon turned up the amount given to them. And yes, let us not forget the tactics the Jews used against the Arabs, like the Deir Yassin Massacre and then the city was used as a new settling housing for Jewish immigrants, which is one of the many examples of Jewish occupation and settlement of non-Jewish territory. 5. Of course they received the majority of the UN vote, none of the other nations had to give up their land so it was good, Britain and France had to move out of the area soon as it was getting harder to control resistance as the only "Arab" nation that liked European occupation was Lebanon. The UN means nothing anyway, they've been reiterating for 41 years for Israel to stop illegal settlement that violate the Geneva Convention and Resolution 242 [which was passed 15-0] and it hasn't stopped them, a UN vote (or any international law for that matter) is only valid if it is beneficial to Israel. 6. Why should the Jews be suspicious of those who want peace? Isn't that a good thing? 7. I was saying I would have absolutely no problem if there was the country of Palestine & Israel because if Jews would want to apply for the citizenship of such a country than it would be of their own accord and nothing illegal. However when you're foreigners who come from far away to invade a long occupied area and disregard property deeds that have been held valid for generations there is no reason why there is Israeli hatred. Answer this hypothetical question; if you had something for a long time that was a family heirloom and you had pride in it, but a cousin said your great grandfather received it unfairly [because his great grandfather, the brother of yours, had been kidnapped so he was not physically present to inherent it] so he's taking it back and his friends assist him in its acquisition, is that fair? Now apply that to Israeli and Palestine. There should be no negotiations in regards to illegal settlement, it is violating an international agreement, Israel is disregarding a resolution of an organization they are part of as well as the disregard of the Fourth Geneva Convention. Edit: Oh yes and Israel claims to a more just side but they broke a ceasefire when even Hamas honored it in 2008 and they've been starving the Gazans with the blockade and they have killed their economy as its olive-export based. Don't be so quick to think Israel is so just, both sides are covered in blood. [/hide] 1. The media is not pro-Israel. I don't see a point in elaborating here since I said it isn't, and your response was "it is". Obama also isn't pro-Israel. I can tell you there's a bit of a hype in Israel because of Obama. As for it being wrong, sure. But don't you find it hypocritical that countries like Englad would declare their relations with Israel are no longer as they used to be because of that incident, even though England did and will do it in the future aswell? 2. I don't think the reason matters as long as these are the results. 3. You didn't understand why I even mentioned these pacts. It doesn't matter what are Joran and Eygept's reasons- they wanted peace, and they got it. I am not blaming those that do want peace with anything at all, I'm saying the majority just does not. Back when I still played Runescape regularly I used to be a part of an Israeli clan. Every few days 20 arabs or so would join the clan so they could annoy us- kicking wasn't an option because they just joined, said whatever it is they were saying, and left before you could do anything, and then repeat. Unfortunately, our clan leader had quit years ago, and starting a new clan wasn't a realistic option because of the size of our clan- informing everyone would take years. At some point everyone in my clan got very tired of them, the generals got experienced at speed-kicking, etc. One day, only 1 joined (I was the only online general that day), and said he's not here to annoy anyone, he just wants peace. Being the only one in my clan who even cares about politics, and despite that clan being for Israelis only, I was thrilled with his suggestion, I literally couldn't stop smiling for a few minutes. Guess what? It was just some childish, dumb prank. These guys are definitely not to be an example for all arabs at all, but that's not the only place me, my clan, and many other Israelis see hatred. I'm not trying to play the victim, I'm saying that after these experiences, and after experiences with giving out land for, basically, nothing, I'm not surprised so many don't trust Palestinians. I'm not going to argue over whether or not Israel deserves the land, because we already had a very long argument over it on another thread some time ago. I do ask you to be realistic- Israel is here to stay, and is not going anywhere. Since it's a democratic country, which means the citizens get to have a say on Israel's doctrine, and since many citizens also don't think dual-states are what the Palestinians are after- what makes you think they'd even want that? And why would they? Why would anyone help someone get stronger, while knowing that someone wants him dead? Oh, and no, I meant 2 states with different governments, just like Netanyahu offered. 4.I agree that illegal settlements are a problem, and are wrong. I would stop them myself if I could. However, sitting and discussing with Israel is all it takes to stop those. 5. Again, I'm not going to argue whether or not Israel deserves the land because we already discussed that quite a bit. "a UN vote (or any international law for that matter) is only valid if it is beneficial to Israel." Weren't you the one who said Israel didn't follow all of the UN's demands? Rather contradicting... 6. Explained on #3. 7. "there is no reason why there is Israeli hatred"....no reason? What about suicide bombers, Sderot getting bombed, innocent Israeli citizens being killed for no reason, Israeli soldiers kidnapped and held without any regards to human rights or captured rights, the many wars held against Israel from every [bleep]ing border, nukes developed in Iran, Israel having to clear up half of it's budgest for security purposes, political parties INSIDE Israel wanting it's downfall, Muslim extremists, Israel giving out land for peace and not getting it, and the simple fact that hatred encourages hatred? I could probably go on a lot. As for your question- what if that family heirloom belonged to Israel at one point aswell? It's not black and white, and discussing whether Israel deserves it or not is pointless, for the simple reason that Israel is not going anywhere- Instead of that, why not discuss solutions for the situation? "There should be no negotiations in regards to illegal settlement, it is violating an international agreement, Israel is disregarding a resolution of an organization they are part of as well as the disregard of the Fourth Geneva Convention." "I agree that illegal settlements are a problem, and are wrong. I would stop them myself if I could. However, sitting and discussing with Israel is all it takes to stop those." "Oh yes and Israel claims to a more just side but they broke a ceasefire when even Hamas honored it in 2008" Maybe it's because I just woke up, but I don't recall Hamas ever honoring ceasefires. "they've been starving the Gazans with the blockade" 1. Israel is sending constant supply to Gaza. 2. They had to block other sources of supplies, for the mere fact that alongside these resources, weapons are sent in very large quantities- and with the intent to shoot at citizens "they have killed their economy as its olive-export based" You mean through war? Yes, that and people being killed are usually the results of wars. "Don't be so quick to think Israel is so just, both sides are covered in blood" Don't put words in my mouth, I'll be the first to say Israel is covered in blood. Both sides have done unspeakable things, but Israel is willing to discuss things. Look, I completely relate to the Gazans, I can't baer to even think what their lives are like, but the only true solution I could ever see feasible is peace.

    I guess it's just because people would prefer to see a normal picture of you so they can see what you actually look like. It is what I actually look like...
  4. It's not about what I think. It's wrong whether I think so or not.
  5. Quests and new content in general is my only answer.
  6. Romy replied to Marco's topic in Off-Topic
    Why does it bother you that I want you to? Uhh... because it's weird you even care.
  7. I agree with your last sentence. Jagex needs more input from players and testing. They implemented great rewards with this skill which means they understand what their playerbase want but they screwed up in the way you can obtain these items which means they don't understand how their playerbase play their game... I have hope that this skill will be great in the end, when the playerbase has finished testing this beta skill and changes have been implemented. I'm thinking it's because they know how their playerbase play their game, that they set it that way. I know of too many 'scapers that are too motivated when their goals are set, wayyy too motivated- Jagex wants people playing their game for as long as possible. Don't forget it's the first days of release, I believe future updates will change that A LOT. You mean the time to level? Doubt it. I believe the whole purpose behind making the cap 120 was so that you could level up at a fairly constant rate. Although I'm doing solo right now at level 53, and it's actually taking 3-4 dungeons a level. So the time to level does increase somewhat as you level, unsurprisingly. I don't think it'll stay this way. Jagex may want people playing their game, but they wouldn't encourage "no-lifing"- Getting to 104M on a 15-20K exp per hour on average is not something Jagex would encourage IMO.

  9. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fQ5f3VspUUQ Watching the music video kind of ruined it for me.... a beautiful song nonetheless :).
  10. I stopped trusting polls years ago, after I've seen things turn from one thing to the complete opposite...
  11. That translates to "ask again later". I highly recommend taking Lent's route in more or less forcing her into a decision. Unfortunatly, the macho attitude has the risk of her choosing to not choose you. But she's a girl. And this is prom. Chance are in your favor. And Lent, If I'm a 'Ted' you are absolutley a 'Barney' ;) Hmmm I like your approach, thank you for the advice Good luck, tell us how things went :).

    And then he/she will make a decision on what they want to believe in from there. And honestly, I don't see how one little grace ('chant' seems a bit much) is forcing religion onto someone compared to something like making them read the bible everyday. Are there any other reasons why this is 'wrong' ? But that decision will be affected by what he/she repeated so many times. Personally, I see this as wrong.
  13. Again, any land conquered by Israel was conquered through wars Israel did not initiate, with the exception of the Six Days War. If it's the illegal settlements you're referring to: I agree those are wrong, but trying to bring forward the discussion was tried by Israel, the Palestinians only agree to do it with pre-made conditions, as odd as that, Israel temporarily stopped the illegal settlements, so that discussion could be had. Nothing happend. Like those that were made for giving up the Gaza strip, Sinaï, and other lands? Both sides had broken peace treaties, there's no point in accusing one side. A. Bombing Sderot became something that's done on a daily basis, with the sole purpose of hurting Israeli citizens. B. These civilian neighbourhoods were used by Hamas members to cover for themselves- So should Israel just not do anything, so not to hurt civilians, despite the fact that the other side had done so for 8 whole years? I'm not saying it's okay, I'm saying there's no other choice. I feel like a broken record, but that's something I can assure you every first world country does, including the USA- Israel just got caught. I'd love you to keep listing then. Ofcourse not, Israel had done wrong many, many times, I never said Israel is just a victim here. I can tell you I'm personally extremely furious at some of Israel's doings, but I believe that despite everything (on both sides), peace can be achieved if wanted. They didn't invade, they received the right to establish a country by the UN. Do you seriously believe Iran should own nukes? Can you not see anything wrong with that? Maybe it's just me, but I feel safe when countries like USA, France, and Israel own nukes, but I'd be terrified if Iran owned nukes... Israel is willing to sit and discuss, I don't see what else you expect. Again, Sderot was bombed at for 8 years before Israel did anything- Oferet Yetzuka. Hamas had agreed to stop bombing Sderot if Israel stops that operation. Israel stopped and 3 days later Sderot was bombed again. I don't get it? When Israel commits human rights offenses you're stunned, but when the rest do you're not?...Why? I don't think you understand how serious this is. A city of innocent citizens was getting attacked by bombs and constantly, for eight years. I can only imagine the American people reacting one way if that ever happend to say... Seattle. Yes, I do think the USA would attack without paying much attention to human rights given that situation, all countries would. You expect one side to agree to help it's enemy at getting stronger, even though you claim that side won't be happy until the other is destroyed?
  14. Romy replied to Marco's topic in Off-Topic
    Yep, that's correct.... :S
  15. Romy replied to Marco's topic in Off-Topic
    That what happend?
  16. Get away with anything? You mean like they do when suicide bombers become something of normality in Israel? Or perhaps when an Israeli soldier is kept hidden without any regards to human rights, including letting the red cross meet him? Oh, I know, you mean when Israel had given up lands time and time again for peace that was never achieved. Or maybe you mean Hamas leaders using Gaza Strip citizens (even children) as human shields... Right, you got me, Israel can get away with anything, it's the rest of the participants that have to suck it up when the world frowns upon them. Pfft, what?! When did Britain, France, Canada, or any other country besides for the USA ever help Israel through wars? And the USA NEVER helped physically, only economically, just like Russia did with the other side. Umm...? Define "rightfully yours". As far as I'm concerned, it was "rightfully theirs" at some point too. The "parents" split it up, said your brother should play too. You went to war against your brother and lost, and now you wouldn't even hear your brother without first setting terms. I asked for interests that would stop Israel from achieving peace, and you gave human rights offenses as an example? Of an interest? Of Israel's?.....What? Nevermind that. I'd like to see 1 country in the whole wide world that would have one of it's cities constantly bombed at for EIGHT years and not respond. IMHO, Israel's reactions were way too tender. I bet if anything like that happend to the USA, the other country would be wiped out in a matter of seconds, without any regard to human rights or war crimes. I can give you countless examples like the ones I listed up this post, I challenge you to show me anything Israel had done that overcomes that.
  17. Romy replied to Marco's topic in Off-Topic
    Why does it bother you?
  18. I wasn't even referring to the West, I was referring to the international media.
  19. Not anymore, I'm pretty sure Obama isn't the best president Israel could hope for, to say the least. Yep, by itself along with the armies of Eygept, Jordan, Syria, Iraq.... But they weren't given the land, they were given a part of the land (less than 40% if I'm not wrong). The rest was conquered through wars Israel didn't even initiate (with the exception of the Six Days War, which was started by Israel after the Israeli intelligence discovered Eygept is about to attack the very same day). Interests? Like what? Did you know that almost 50% of Israel's budget goes straight to security, no questions asked? Just like I said, that was the case at first, through wars that was changed.
  20. I wasn't referring to fat girls as fat girls, I was referring to the idea of trying to score with an inconfident girl, who probably is very thrilled througout the whole time, and then later is just shattered. And where did this come from? From your unbelieveably ignorant statement that every guy should try to get laid with a fat chick to be called a man.... I literally almost threw up while typing this... Grrr, now I'm enraged!
  21. These are not the only factors that determine exp. For instance, if one of you is a much higher combat level, the exp differences could be huge (up to 60% loss), if one of you gets the easy titles that only one can have (battle-mage, sharp shooter, berserk, master chef, etc) then that person should also be getting a lot more exp. If one of you is raiding a floor that had already been raided by you before pressing the 'reset' button, that's also a factor for low exp, and these are just the ones I know of. Yes, but I didn't see any obvious factors. her combat level was higher, she was getting all the titles, and we were both doing floors that were unchecked. what other factors could there be? I *think* your Dungeoneering level affects the exp you get too (the higher, the more exp), other than that... I dunno. Don't forget the exp you get (besides % factors) is an average of your prestige, and the floor you just completed.
