I do know that back when I played, jagex promised them along with the full launch of rs2, or at least early on. I picture mostly randomly generated terrain with certain monsters that can be taken on solo or in groups. There obviously has to be an extra element, like you said puzzles or something. That's probably what jagex has been working on getting right until they release it. I do think a lot of what we've seen in game has been a product of their working towards dynamic quests, they just decided to launch them as mini-games until they get this system right.

Locked as requested. Since this is in fact speculative, I ask that if you do make a new thread you make it in Runescape Suggestions since as of now what you're talking about isn't actual game content.

Yah, because he broke rules to get 1 piece of information, and that is all he has to go on. He isn't allowed posting that info since he broke rules to get it. It is really useless information too. Ill report this thread as spam, that is what it really is.... He is no longer breaking the rules and this thread does hold discussion value, even if speculative. Clearly there is room for discussion on dynamic quests, whether or not rule breaking screens are shown.

That logic makes absolutely no sense. New jokes don't equal good jokes. Prediction: Grown Ups will be Sandler's best movie. Unfortunately it will later be usurped by the movie The Zookeeper, being a more recent and therefore better movie. Too many people have the new movies=better movies mentality nowadays.

Moved to MM&T. I love his early comedies, but my all time favorite movie he was in has to be Reign Over Me. He played such an amazing role, and it really had a rare emotional impact on me for a movie. Funny people was pretty good, but imo it wasn't his best by a long shot. In fact thinking about it now, I didn't really like his role as much as the supporting cast. His character felt way too forced for me by Judd Apatow. He just seemed like a stock-character pigeonholed into an obvious plot roller coaster. The comedy/standup parts were great, but the drama/acting was pretty bad. He's done a lot better.

I thoroughly loved the typical Tarantino style. The movie flew by even though it was long and almost all dialog. The soundtrack was great too.

Let's stay on topic here. We're getting close to needing a lock.

If it was your dad's cash, I can understand why he would be angry even if he gave you it for helping out. You can go with your principles and do what you feel is right and suffer the consequences. Or you can return the ps3, and get both your friend and your brother presents. I think a ps3 is a bit much for a friend anyway, so I would get your friend a nice present, and something else for your brother too just as a symbolic gift. It doesn't have to be much of anything good, but he's family, and unless you want to make family relations worse, I'd do something along those lines. But it's your choice. You have just as much reason to stick with what you think is right. It just sounds to me like you're partially trying to make your family mad by spending a ton of money on a ps3 for your friend which may not be the right way to go about it either.

Is there any reason they would dislike you? I don't think you've given us the whole picture. You live with your family and are in your mid teens. But you said a group of 18-20 year-olds moved in across the street? I'm sure I just don't understand the situation, but I wouldn't worry about it as they haven't made any direct threat to you and anything you've heard is probably just a rumor. I would ignore them and any time you happen to run into each other don't give them a reason to dislike you. Just be somewhat friendly and you shouldn't have any issues.

But he was in that same room earlier. He even knew somewhat where to start looking around when they got there.

1. They lived together for 20 years, so it's assumed they learned to communicate. Some African tribes speak with clicks, so it's imaginable humans learned how to understand the aliens. 2. Wilkus did know. By that point in the movie you didn't get that it's just his personality to lie to diffuse a situation?

I hear it's something you have to train yourself with if it doesn't occur on its own. If you have good dream recall apparently it's easier to start lucid dreaming. Do you ever have moments in your dreams where you're slightly aware you're dreaming and have slightly more control over your actions than you normally do? Most of the time this happens right before a person wakes up, or right as someone re-enters REM sleep after waking up. Once you realize you're dreaming, it's easy to lucid dream. You just have to reach that point of realization without waking up, and then you have a lot more control over your dreams. Thinking about lucid dreaming before sleeping often helps. Try thinking about a specific dream you want to have and if you do realize during your dream that it's a dream (reality checks help, look that up if you're interested), you'll have some control over it. Just don't expect complete control, because lucid dreams don't work that way most of the time.

I find all aspects of sleep really interesting. What you've described sounds like something I go through myself. In a lot of my morning lectures, I'll nod off and immediately slip into a dream for a few seconds. Then I'll jerk back awake, but it will be weird because the few seconds of dreaming feels real and suddenly you're back sitting in lecture. My best guess is that on those mornings my body still hasn't left sleep completely and is still trying to re-enter REM sleep, even though I've long since left my bed. If regular sleep is interrupted, the body is good at getting back close to REM state without restarting the sleep clock. While this often happens to me in class, I had a much crazier experience when I was in the hospital with a collapsed lung. I was on a heavy morphine derivative, and that was amplifying the awake-REM-awake-REM thing going on. I would be talking to friends and family, and mid-sentence would drift out to a dream (or a hallucination, hard to tell in that state). Unfortunately I told them about it and they insisted my drugs were too strong and had the doctors give me something else. :P The last possibility is plain old narcolepsy, which I doubt you have.

Mahjarrat might have been brought up in rsc. That storyline did exist, and I think it was brought up in the Hazeel cult quest (probably among others, Iban with the Underground Pass and stuff), but I really can't remember.

Please use the Bioshock 2 related thread we currently have for discussion: viewtopic.php?f=151&t=770587 Thanks, Adam007

Now hey, don't listen to these people. It's alright to cry. [yt]bqWo-GswzJY[/yt] I don't know why I remember the existence of that video. Anyway, there's nothing wrong with a man crying, it just sounds like you do it in excess. If there's a deeper problem, I'd go to someone for help. That sounds like borderline depression to me if you're crying that much. Again there's nothing wrong with it, but I do think as you get older you'll man up a bit (excuse the phrase, I don't mean to sound insensitive) and cry less.

I think they're dangerous to development even when not viewed to the extreme of being an addiction. When an 11 year old gets some time off from school, video games, tv, and the computer shouldn't be the first thing he/she goes to. You just don't develop right that way. I wrote an editorial on runehead 2 years ago about this topic. I'd change some things now, but in general I still stand by it:

I really recommend this movie to everyone. I've seen a lot of action movies this summer, and hands down, this is the movie of the summer. Maybe even the year. I loved District 9 on so many levels. And no, you don't need to watch district 1-8 beforehand to follow along. :P

This isn't a fansite/helpsite. I would recommend checking a site like gamefaqs.com for help. Good luck. Adam007 Tip it Mod

If you preorder it from gamestop you get a rooster hat: http://www.gamepro.com/article/news/211 ... pre-order/ As if I didn't need one more reason to get this game. I'll be wearing this hat all the time. Inside. When I'm in my room. And the door is closed.

I find fresh off tutorial island people to be the most normal out of any playing group. Before they find out their items are junk and start begging, they don't know much annoying 1337speak and rs jargon, they're pretty well behaved, and haven't yet been socialized into the mess of a group of people on an average f2p server.

Me or the Knights Who Spam "Noob"? And yes, that was a very obvious Monty Python reference. You go pk'ing enough, it gets boring waiting around. I see a lot of people start fights just like that purposely. Not because they're stupid, but because often it's entertaining getting in dumb arguments over just waiting around. P.S.: Ni.

It's called being bored and wanting attention.

I disagree. I believe agnosticism to be neither a theistic nor an atheistic belief. Agnosticism for many people means that they don't really care whether or not there is a God. They don't believe in a god, nor do they necessarily believe there isn't a god. The two are not mutually exclusive. For reference if you need it, I would be a theist. I'm just saying that agnostics are either atheist or theist and not a category on their own. Thats all i'm trying to prove :P You're really pigeon-holing here. Most agnostics believe a god can exist but since there is no evidence proving or disproving it, accept there is no way to know. They don't claim to believe a god doesn't exist. It's as grey a middle-ground as it gets. Agnosticism is a lack of knowledge about god. Atheism is a lack of belief in a god. Agnosticism, at least in the way I believe, is accepting that we can't know what can't be proven - essentially that anything is possible. So I would say agnostics are a category of their own, because they don't fall into one of your two labels. It's not that we're undecided. It's that we accept there's no way to decide. I don't think such issues exist. There's a difference. Would you ridicule a priest who dedicated his life to the study of the bible? You would disagree with their belief, but I would hope you would respect the person enough not to ridicule them just because you disagree. Your example of doing the chicken dance is a stretch because someone would only be doing that in jest. But I would hope you wouldn't ridicule the priest for dedicating his life for a cause he believes in just because you disagree with it. Again, it's the same thing as him chastising you for not believing in a god. He'd have no right to criticize you so I don't see why you think it would be fine to call him out on it.

You're assuming there is no god and therefore prayer has no use. Randomly wishing is different than praying in that you're not directing thoughts to a god. You obviously can't prove prayer works, but it's kind of insulting to compare it to random actions that aren't comparable at all to prayer to those that do pray. If it's insulting then so be it. There's no evidence to support the effectiveness of prayer, and the death of this poor girl seems like enough contrary evidence to me. If people feel the need to pray to suppliment helpful steps taken then that's alright, but it's no kind of substitute. I still haven't said that prayer does work. Just that we can't know. So yes, pushing your beliefs on a person telling someone they're wasting their time praying is just as bad as a religious person telling you you're going to hell for not believing in god. It's just one of those issues you respect everyone's belief on, because neither side can be proven one way or the other.
