Korla

I know there is an oracly in The Never Ending Story, but I don't rememeber any things with 4 legs in a sandy world. They do come to a sandy world for some kind of test, but as I said, no things with 4 legs. There's also a big rock-chewing monster if it helps.

ditto that. Attractive... I think under the premises that the girl isn't fat, what matters to me is the way their humor is shown through their body. It can be something about the eyes, smile, how they move their body. Sexy also goes into this, they don't have to have the most awesome behind for me to get turned on, it helps, for sure, but it's all about how their personality shines through. What they want. Having said that. A fine behind is always very nice. Aswell as a non-flabby stomach.

Transport Tycoon is a sure classic. One of those games I just can't get good at no matter how much I like it... Rollercoaster Tycoon is also great, only played the first game seriously, though. Gotta love the normal Steel Rollercoaster, just a twin-station blast-off-loop-up and stop-back through loop. It's the best way to earn $$ :P And funny to name someone in the Go-Kart queue to "Michael Schumacher" or "Damon Hill" and watch them race to the death through your composed F1-track :P

Ah, secret of many is more like the Zelda games I suppose. I never did play FF.

Final Fantasy...feels like alot to get into, tbh, like I'd be away from the world for the week I play it. Secret of Mana 2 is...the same style as FF right?

I sold my SNES when I was like...13 or something, stupidly, to get some money for N64 games. Anyhow, lately I've been wanting to relive the old controller and and the feeling of some classic games like: Super Metroid Mega Man X Super Mario World Super Tennis So, basically, I'm wondering about other games to get if I do end up buying it. Zelda is ofcourse a classic, and Chrono Trigger... I do think they're pretty hard to get and expensive aswell, so it might be a nono for those...even Super Metroid might be hard enough, especially on the wallet. Well, any ideas?

Who would have guessed, LOL. Ah, Gnome Mage is teh sheet. Now get your friendly water elemental and get ready to own. I once even beat a shaman with it up :o FC on top of roof in WSG, muahaha. Oh well, maybe I shouldn't be too happy about that, goes to show I'm a crappy pvper. Anyhow, I ran "Korla" through the new armory on the european servers and found like 10 chars called Korla :o none of which are mine...oddness, a lvl 64 warlock aswell...either I am famous or that Krla Pandit from india is more popular in western WoW culture than I thought...

Unless your government helps oil users by decreasing taxes on oil, thereby giving the people a false image of the actual cost of oil, causing to oil consumption to not decrease at the rate it should. GO USA...In sweden I think gas is about 3x as expensive as in the US. Not sure on exact figures, but your prices are nothing. Oversimplify much? While greed is perceived as a bad thing, it in no way kills the economy. People's desire to make more and more money helps the economy if anything. Greed Helps? Well, since you believe greed improves the economy, proof please. If it does, i'll go out and start hoggin things for myself. Of course.. don't really see how thats helping my neighbors. Once again, show me proof. ~Defender~ What do you mean, proof? That's like asking me to prove that people with motivation are more likely to succeed. You just don't prove these kinds of things. I'm sorry if the premise that people who have a drive to make money are likely to help an economy just doesn't work for you. But then again, I could just flip things around, and ask you to find me proof that people's desire to accumulate wealth is bad for an economy. People who earn money to spend money to earn more money are good for the economy. Not people who earn money to save them. That's a huge difference.

Okay, I'm still undefeated at Mario Kart, I'll take anyone on (wish there was an online version :P). The reason I brought it up now is that I just bet my girlfriend so badly...can't help myself when it comes to Mario Kart, its's just life or death to me :D

I had straight teeth until basically the day I turned 20. Then this tooth started growing, the ones you get when you get old, never heard what they're called in English. Only mine started growing like..the other way, pushing on my entire row of teeth, and Sweden apparently has a 3 year waiting list for the kind of treatment I need, which I also heard is extremely painful. Anyhow, don't just count on having perfect teeth forever just cause you have it when you're young. Mine still look good, but they might not if this goes on for another 3 years :o

Your "writting" is as bad as ever. But it's not just spelling, it's basically formulating sentences that convey what you mean in a clear way, that's your problem atm anyway, and it makes your longer posts hard to follow and more importantly one loses interest. Even though the topic might be good to start with. What I think about this is that, as have been said already, the world is changing, in the same way as it ever has, it's moving at a faster pace and one needs to be able to speak quicker. It's always a younger generation's slang that is picked up and turned into mainstream language, and always an older generation that is against what is, in their eyes, a very bad way of doing things. It's the way of life in my mind. I am as disturbed by the use of such slang as you are, but I am content in complaining to peers and not worrying too much about the so called "degeneration" of young people's ability to speak complete sentences. Also, you had a complaint about people writing LOL when they don't really mean it, so what? They could write HAHAHA and not mean it aswell, and it's the exact same thing non-meaning wise. It's just not an argument against the use of LOL and such abbreviations, but a complete different topic. Did I mention I'm studying critical thinking? Oh, I'm gonna have some fun in a few weeks breaking people's arguments with theories about argumentation and stuff :P This I think is pretty interesting, though, how it now means a different thing. I think that when LOL stopped meaning so much cause of its overuse and was used instead to mean something like: "I care enough to type something back", is when I stopped using it, or maybe that was around the same time as I started speaking to people outside of WoW again (I.e. swedish people I knew IRL). Anyhow, that's the actual loss of meaningg right there.

What is supposed to be the real Jesus is in the movie, and made fun of a bit, right in the beginning, preaching to the masses. See, that's what I just can't stand, paternalism like that. He think it's something which might change your views negatively, so he says you can't go see it. How can you ever respect such a wish? He says you're completely unable to make your own decisions about what is good and bad. A horrible opinion to have IMO. My parents never told me what to think or feel, and I'm happy about that, it let me grow in my own way, into something I can understand and respect, not something they understand and respect.

Agreed. Graphics do mean something. anyways, I enjoy a good blend. A game needs everything (gameplay, graphics, story, sound, ect.) to be a truely great experience. I agree. To me they only mean so much as to what they bring to the game, more realism doesn't necessarily mean a better game. Some of the best graphics IMO are in games like Super Mario World, Super Metroid and Planescape: Torment. None of which has realism as the main goal of their graphics engine. Realism, which is the thing most new games revolve around is nothing without feeling. Gameplay, storyline, good graphics and music. That's what makes me come back to a game. And ofcourse, since I played WoW for like 8 hours a day for a year, I have to say that some sense of Multiplayer event in a good package makes me want to come back again and again, so add that, too and you have a good game. Nowadays I prefer my games without that, though, since I don't want to spend 8hours a day in front of the comp playing games ;)

Bebop and Rocksteady. They were just cool. Damn the Nintendo game was hard...should really get that rom sometime and try and beat it :-k Oh, and for all you simpletons with no important knowledge in your brain, they're from Teenage Mutant Ninja Heroes, the saviors of all childhood.

I think part of the scientific theory is something like "it covered all the land" is actually a people's belief that it covered all the land, not that it actually covered ALL the land. They have some signs on rocks in I think Italy or east of that in the Mediterranean that there was a great flood there, where the water was like 20 meters higher than it is today, which possibly could make people think it was God's wrath punishing people. And to the OP, they might say it is good, but since he's omnipotent he can make it look like nature was the cause, so supernatural or not, it's not like his hand came full of water and threw it across the lands, rather he made it rain for very long or something, see what I'm getting at? The scientific evidence might still be there. But it's all mumbo jumbo to me :P

doesn't work here...maybe with transparent images... :-k anyhow, I used to play a game when I was a kid with a small soft ball the size of a...baseball I can imagine, only softer, softer than a softball aswell. the goalposts were the edges of a doorway in one goal, a chair and the wall in the other. you played it sitting on the floor either on your behind or on your knees. you scored by getting the ball past the opponent, like in for example soccer, or floorball. it was a very dangerous sport for any bystanding porcelain audience and paintings hanging on the wall, not paintings actually painted on the wall, they were safe ;) The game had to be abandoned because of a piano in the middle of the playing field. (I'll never forgive my parents for destroying my childhood just for my sister's pianolessons...:P)

Nah, I hated that. "Hi, I'm Link. I'm stronger then people that can lift buildings but I can't jump." And I felt so sad for Mido and the Zoro King. So you didn't like what has been called one of the best games ever because there's no button for jumping, but instead jumping works automatically, in a way you can control for your every need :-k wow, you don't come off as a serious...person. The ending was too ... odd. Too many questions like "How did Zelda get back if Link had the master sword? Since when could the ocarina travel people through time? If it could, couldn't Link go back and kill Ganon when he was a kid? And what happened to the sages? And that's another thing. If something works automatically, then it's awkward. I LIKE having control over him. And if you want to get a heart piece which Link could easily jump to get but he can't that's odd. And it worked funky, because often you'd be about to jump when Link would just hang over the edge. It was really annoying in the Spirit Temple And tell me where the hell'd I say I don't like the game? Really, tell me. "Nah, I hated that. " and then you ranted about general game mechanics, making it read like you were talking about the entire game. Sure you never need to jump except where you can jump, but it is just nice to have that option. When I play Oblivion or Morrowind I jump everywhere, while I am just walking down a street. I have to be clicking a button other than just walking straight or I get bored :lol: . Although in Zelda you can roll everywhere, which is what I ended up doing. Not quite the same as jumping though. You can z-target and jump sideways, it's the fastest way to travel before epona, I dunno if it's possible without it, but that way I never spend the first night out fighting stalfos anymore, which I remember as a pain the first time I played it at 13.

late owl, 5 AM is nothing when addicted to WoW :)

eww, it's like, fake-fake-football. a game made in the likeness of a game made in the likeness of true football ;) kidding, it could be good. anyhow, probably E.V.O. for the SNES, or if we're talking games I completed...it's possible that Baldur's Gate 1 is the last game I completed, or maybe Icewind Dale 1. Certainly the two last games that I found interesting to play through to the end.

Frostbite 3/3 Gives your chill effect a 15% chance to freeze the target for 5 seconds. where did you get 50% from? Shatter (Rank 5/5) Increases the critical strike chance of all your spells against frozen targets by 50%. how is that in any way related to what he was saying? shatter is just about crit chance, he was talking about freezing opponents. :roll: except the percentage, which doesn't even make them related, really

both, they say the same thing :roll: look at the times they posted, it's the same. so load up a paypal and try that.

2/0/59. Very frosty. Average normal frostbolt damage is 1000, crits are 2200. I've also got the talents that give you +2% to crit chance with each hit and +50% to crit chance on frozen targets, so when I've used frost nova on an enemy I have a 75% crit chance. Another good thing is ice lance - if you've got a target that is frozen, you start sending a frostbolt then the instant it finishes you fire off an ice lance - the game will think the target is still frozen because the frostbolt hasn't reached it yet. This way I can do 3700 damage in an instant. if you have frostbite half the time frostbolt will freeze on impact :) Frostbite 3/3 Gives your chill effect a 15% chance to freeze the target for 5 seconds. where did you get 50% from?

I don't think you have to worry about any rule-breaking, this post far exceeds the standard of people's first posts :) so GJ with that :P I have never heard of any of those games, I'm sad to say :oops: ooh well, lets hope someone else has.

Yea, I'm abit sorry about making that post, that's why I added the "Wow, what a rant" after. Good luck with this thread.

The proper term for science could be Pseudo-Creationism to some. Science is, unlike someone said, a belief. If you believe in science, you believe your empirical senses are infallible. If you see something go one way a million times, it cannot go the other way the next? Statistics lie, experiments in the physical world has a million possible outcomes. If you call it truth, it's because you believe in your senses. I believe in my senses, it's my belief that science tells me the truth. If some people don't want to believe in science, it's like telling me they don't believe in their senses. Nothing else. So I let them say that, more often than not I do not tell them of their non-belief in their senses, but their non-enlightenment is as bas as that of the scientist who does not consider his belief to be just that, a belief. I'm just trying to say that this thread isn't gonna prove anything, kinda meta-discussing it :P For people who believe in science it quite obviously does nothing but maybe reinforce their beliefs, which I don't really think is necessary. And the way to disprove someone who does not believe in their senses is not by using your senses. Wow, what a rant :)
