    And unless you're a fanboy, it shouldn't matter so long as you get a good game out of it. that has nothing to do with what i said make a list of "good" wii games. i need a laugh go play cursed mountain. it's fun
  2. i prefered twilight when she voiced raven instead
  3. sorry i got a life, lol

  4. my name isn't red anymore, but i still know all

  5. delayed comments make it alot less drastic

  6. they make adult conventions too :P
  7. I've been busy as ever. Picked up this 16x20 of UNC Basketball Coach Roy Williams from Stiener Sports Mary Costa plays Sleeping Beauty - She has some epic handwriting too, probably the best i've ever seen. Here's a closeup I loved the movie Thor - and Jamie Alexander was a hottie - I think she'll have a bright career. Pippa Black is smoking Hot from Outsourced (ashamed it got canceled) Christopher Heyerdahl was absolutely awesome in supernatural. I've Started two multisig pieces... Scott Pilgrim VS the world (Signed by Mae Whitman and Aubrey Plazza) And The Rite (Signed by Marta Gastini, Torey Devito and Director Mikael Hafstrom) And because tripsis said I could put her in Hide Tags - Miss Lupe Fuentes (No way the Marie McCray will ever be Tip.it approved, Lulz) [hide][/hide]
  8. I wanna play. Being an administrator can be time intensive thats no doubt, but I was able to play a decent amount myself as well. People cry admins are out of touch and don't play, then cry they play too much. Seems like a no win situation - either they don't play and are out of touch or get comments like how many massive scale forum's has everyone run run? Tears of Guthix+Penguins = 30k xp or more a week with less than oh 15 or 20 minutes effort. Lakrob, gained more xp than me in any given month, and was a better admin in those months as well - It's a bit unfair to judge admin's effectiveness with no knowledge of the behind the scenes work that is done by the admin team. I mean, if Laikrob, N Odie or myself were throwing stones about too much rs playtime and lack of work - Maybe the point would be a bit more....meaningful. I too, am not saying playing can make a difference between a good or bad mod or admin, but game knowledge, can't hurt. We factor in QUITE A LOT of criteria in promotional choices for mods and admins - Don't think during my time the XP gains ever come up as a serious detractor from a promotion. We've got much more important criteria to look at.

    What about when a family member/gf/friend wants to use the TV? Don't most people have more than one TV? I loathe motion gaming, and considering how much my Wii just sit's around unused compared to my other systems- Don't see myself rushing out to buy the Wii-U. The fact that it's getting Arkham City and other franchises I can play on my other consoles - is kinda lackluster.
  10. You are aware in order to obtain a drivers license most states (if not all post 9/11) require you have a social security number to get one? Your profile says located in Jordan....so not too sure if you do know To get instate tuition - thees numerous ways for American citizens to beat the system as is - all you need is proof at place of residence usually (NC is 3-4 years) and a letter from the owner of the house if it's not yours.
  11. Seriously? It wasn't long ago when Jagex would warn and ban people people from the official forum for posting links to mainstream stuff like CNN. This is a game that one time you would get a warning for calling a player in a deathmatch wench (true story, that one was me) and one that was heavily marketed towards teens. I mean hell they removed quest monstors from the Lava maze to edge dungeon to make the quest "Easier" - Jagex spent 3 or 4 years making the game child proof. Asking for an MSN, Email or trying to make a friend outside of the game was personal details, and I can name 3 or 4 members of my clan who got muted (in one case, permanently)for "Advertising" even though our site was not a scam site. To think runescape was always marketed towards adults, lest intelligent people is misguided at best, lord knows the value on trade screens, doomsayer, ditch of stupidity, multiple warnings on duel/trades were made for smart and savy users right? :rolleyes: Anyone who played classic SHOULD know runescape has been dumbed down for the masses. Even RS2 product's should of seen Jagex become ultra protective of it's userbase and then stop caring. I'm not sure how long you've been playing, but it couldn't of been too long if you think runescape was designed for adults. a good third to half of the games life was geared towards protecting users. I just feel you have to be in the minority to think Jagex is geared for adults, Don't know about you, but runescape was a social stigma at my university. I mean, most hot sorority chicks had no clue what it was - but gamers and fellow CS/Cis/Engineering students? Holy crap, some dude played RS in networking class once, and he was made fun of the ENTIRE semester, He was called "Runes" All semester long. Hell with quick-chat world's - I'd make an arguement it's geared towards tweens. But even with the filters removal - adult's can't talk about ebay or select adult sites ;) Tip.it on the otherhand, has went through various stages of stupidity - again any longstanding member of runescape would remember when tip.it disallowed RL pictures for fear of people using them for bad "things" - users were protected at the cost of functionality. Furthermore, it's extremely asinine to assume "adults" are technical savvy because they are "capable of making a decision. I program in C# and PHP, I'm capable of making a decision on a link - take it from someone who works in customer support - the average person over the age of 30 is beyond incapable of making competent technical decisions. I'd wager from various experiences on facebook and fixing classmates computers at university - that a very small percentage of people our age are actually technical savvy unless they actually have an interest in computers. I think it's fair for Tip.it to protect by blocking executables - simply because while some users are smart and intelligent, the general masses are stupid and uniformed. The amount of feedback forms we get where people think WE'RE JAGEX were mind boggling - I could see angry parent's and crap blaming us for a virus that they downloaded when it was a malicious link that lasted all of 15 minutes ~Das PS: Runescape carries such a stigma - that even my call center employees are so bored they watch my little pony on youtube over trying runescape. I think the only reason I don't get [cabbage] for it more than I do - is because I can write them up. They ask me great thing's like "Hey Dan, you cooking any lobsters tonight?" "Hey Dan, you should make fire in straight lines between calls" "Hey Dan, I think my 70's Han Solo toy here has more movement than your Character". Firemaking at work was lulzy - True exchange "Hey dan, all you do is click logs in a line for hours?" "yes" "how is that fun?" "It's not" "Why do you play" "I like the people I play with" "You wanna go make fires in a line tonight after work?" "sure" "what kind of wood do you burn on the game?" "maple" "Sweet, i got that in my backyard". Firemaking in real life is MUCH harder.

    New levels, new gun's perhaps and some new story, I'd honestly rather pay $60 for Halo 4 right now then buy any new wii release for a comparable price in the past sixth month's. (this caveat excludes me from slamming Cursed Mountain, which was the best $5 i've ever freaking spent) I've gotten my money out of every halo game so far.

    I actually had to check to see if I brought the wrong CD to work. Sims is going to facebook? Oh god, thats a new of gaming loser. EA = Rehashing Madden every year, and getting me to spend $60 for roster updates. Brilliant.
  14. sounds drastic.

    E3 has been less and less exciting for years.
  17. And if I can't? :P

  18. Oh no! what will I do?!

  19. not a ninja poke! :O

  20. As an admin, I'd guess I did review 50-75 HJT files WITH the censor (all new mods/crew are required to do one). It was annoying as piss, but something I didn't think about changing in the censor because of the risks to users of inferior intelligence than the majority of us who don't play with strange [Caution: Executable File]s's I always found find and replace worked well and only slowed me down marginally. I'd much rather see Prick unfiltered - However I doubt that will happen *giggles*
  21. It's a double edge sword. While I feel it's unfair to the home users of Sonypictures who got leaked, Sony has now been publicly shown the errors of it's ways to where it cannot hide from the public. Doing this forces change whereas private would possibly cause feet dragon. Messing with the government is domestic terrorism though and i feel is a dishonor to your country to publicly expose them like they have done
  22. to be fair, more people know who he is now than they new who I was before I was promoted. I never ventured outside of clans before I became admin. Jimmy will be great, he has my full endorsement .
  23. Not suprised at all, Well, that takes care of that.
  24. dude what Rainy Day dared me to post it. Ask him.
