Oldest game(s) you've ever played?
I'm pretty young...I wasn't around when pong/tetris/pac-man/Mario/Whatever came out. But I was around for... (Eh, Wiki doesn't have pages for them.) (Heck, I can't even find them on the official website) Anyways, they're called "Get Set to Learn Numbers!", "Letters", "Numbers" and "Let's make a WORD!". All by Sesame Workshop. Sesame Street FTW. Then, maybe 10 or so years ago, I played nearly every single Humongous Entertainment game in existence. It probably started because I loved "Blue's Clues" and HE produced their games. It later spread to "Fatty Bear", (I couldn't beat one of them...Still can't... :wall: ) "Putt-Putt", (So fun. I think they were my favorite out of all of them. And that balloon one...I spent a whole night playing that, got to level 150 or something.) "Freddi Fish" and (I have up to the third one, borrowed the fourth from a friend) "Spy Fox". (My dad was PWNAGE at that racing game.) And of course, the Backyard Sports. I have nearly every single one up to 2003. That means Backyard Baseball, Backyard Baseball 2001, Backyard Baseball 2003, Backyard Soccer, Backyard Football, Backyard Basketball and Backyard Hockey. I'm pretty good at all of them. I won a baseball game once by a score of 300-something to 7. I won every soccer game with 5+ goals, and never gave up a goal until the final second of the final game of the "World Cup". I found a way to score off face-offs in Backyard Hockey, and won games by 50+ points. Humongous Entertainment Backyard Sports I think I also played the Carmen Sandiego games a long time ago. Maybe around the same time as the Humongous Entertainment craze, my dad, sister and I would play together. We were still "gumshoes". :

Obsessive-Compulsive Tweaks?
Eh, I have way too many to list. A few... -Every action must be done a number of times. Usually one, but if I do something twice for some reason, I must do it again. -Smaller objects must come in even numbers, preferably 10. Two pencils, four pens. -For some things, there must be an even number. I have two pencils, two blue pens and two red pens in my backpack. When I'm eating M&M's or something, there must be an even number of each color. If there are 7 blues, 4 browns and 6 reds, I eat 3 blues and 2 reds ASAP. At once. Then I eat a blue, brown and red at the same time, keeping them equal. -Sort of like Barihawk...I don't do it on large scales, but I make things parallel/perpendicular to each other on desks/tables. -I never take the first of anything. For example, cups. When I'm at a large gathering, and I'm getting a drink, I remove two cups from the pile. I then take the one on the bottom, and put the other one back on. -I do the exact same thing every night before going to bed. -I'm quite paranoid/pessimistic. (Those two go quite well hand-in-hand) I'm always thinking of the worst. I'm always wondering whether or not I've locked the door, turned off the oven etc. -I have a undying curiosity. Yay for exaggerations. But seriously, I am extremely curious, and must know as much as possible. When I'm watching DVDs, I'm constantly rewinding so I know every single word that's been said. When I'm reading, I read everything a few times to make sure I've read everything. -I do the "step-on-same-color-of-tiles" thing. If there aren't different colors, but there's an organized pattern, I step in a pattern. -When I used to play RuneScape, I had to examine everything. Not once, not twice, not three times, but five. I guess this sort of is a mix between the "odd-number-of-actions" and the curiosity thing. -When I copy and paste something, I press Ctrl+C three times. Usually three. Sometimes five. And after I paste it, I copy and paste some random thing. Usually one letter. And once again, Ctrl+C three times. -Etc. (Oh yeah, I doubt it counts, but making long posts :D )

~Dumb School Rules~
To the OP: Ever tried following those rules? That might help. To everyone else who's posted rules: o.0 I have no idea here my student handbook is (Not like I care), so a few "special" rules I can think of off the top of my head. They aren't dumb, and I can agree with some of them. They're mainly rules that most other schools don't have. -No latex. When my principal was giving the introductory speech to us on the first day of school (The same speech I've heard year after year), she said something along the lines of..."Remember, -School name- is a latex-free environment! This means no latex erasers, no balloons, and no latex rubber bands! If you need any of these materials, please ask a teacher." Um...Yeah. Great. Balloons. Like I would bring a balloon to school. And apparently, some kid asked his teacher for a balloon. xD But anyways, why do we have this rule? Because there's this one girl in my grade that's allergic to latex. One person caused a school of nearly a thousand people to go completely latex free. Only in a democratic state. Anyways, I find it kind of absurd that my principal would affect so many people just so one girl could go to a public school. But eh, if she's going to school, might as well follow the rule. -No hats. I sort of understand how it could be disrespectful to teachers and how they can be distractions. If they affect the way the class operates, then sure, make there be no hats. But a few really weird parts about this rule. 1) My health teacher last year said that "Hats sometimes can symbolize gangs, and the faculty of -School name- doesn't support gangs." Um...Sure. The Red Sox are a gang. Totally. 2) This is in effect even not in classes. I don't see any reason that students shouldn't be allowed to wear hats during lunch. 3) This is effect even outside. No hats during Physical Education. And sometimes, there are teachers outside that make sure students don't wear hats until they're a certain distance from the building. :-s I'll post more if I think of any.

More F2P Bank Space! [BANKSPACE ACHIEVED!]
-I'm pulling my numbers out of nearly nowhere. They're sort of educated guesses. In a way.- Last time Jagex released a number, I believe there were one million members. Shouldn't be much higher right now...Maybe 500K more at most. I doubt it. Anyways, P2P got 48 bank space once. Maybe 24 more a month or two after. That's 72 spaces in a few months. 72*1000000 = 72000000. Now, there are maybe 6 million F2Pers. Maybe a million or so more. I don't think Jagex has ever released a number, so I don't know for sure. Anyways, assuming there are 6 million F2Pers...12*6000000 = 72000000. F2P would get the same amount of bank space for the first time in years as P2P gets in a few months. And if Jagex makes it so you have to do a quest or something to get bank space, that lowers the number a lot. Maybe down to 3-4 million. Now we're even less than P2P. But still, yes, anything would be appreciated.

Lateral Thinking Puzzles!
Yeah, I've heard them before. No offense, but those are really old...Either that, or I know a lot of riddles. [hide] 1)A man pulled out a gun, pointed it at another man who was known to be totally law-abiding, and pulled the trigger. Click! The gun wasn't loaded. Everyone present, which included at least ten people, was surprised and outraged. Why was the intended victim blamed for the incident? The second guy sold the first guy the gun? 2)A man called the woman he loved, and she cursed at him and hung up angrily. Why was he happy? Only thing I can think of is what Kelem said. But you said that was wrong...So...Uh...He wanted to make sure it was her phone number? 3)Bob, a 15 year old boy with a record of violent crimes, approached a screen porch. Taking out a switchblade, he cut through every screen panel with large diagonal rips. A police officer drove by in a patrol car, saw what the boy was doing, and was pleased. Explain. I have a feeling the fact that they were diagonal rips is important. But still, I have no idea. Instead of the usual gun, it was only a switchblade? [/hide]

Lateral Thinking Puzzles!
Not sure if this is the right forum. Forum Games might suit this better. Anyways... [hide] 2. Two mothers and two daughters go out shopping one day. Each of them buys one pair of shoes. Together, they had three pairs. Why? Grandma, mom, and daughter. 3. A man walks into a bar and asks the barman for a glass of water. The barman pulls out a gun and points it at the man. The man says 'Thank you' and walks out. Why? He had hiccups. 4. A woman had two sons who were born on the same hour of the same day of the same year. But they were not twins. How could this be so? They were part of a triplet. 6. A police officer saw a truck driver clearly going the wrong way down a one-way street, but did not try to stop him. Why not? He was walking. 7. Five pieces of coal, a carrot and a scarf are lying on a hill near a remote house. Nobody put them on the lawn but there is a perfectly logical reason why they should be there. What is it? They were part of a snowman. The snowman melted. [/hide]

Privacy, and Problems
Eh, I've swam for a while. Ever since I was 5 or something. Before and after my lessons, I would have to shower. With grown men. Gasp. But yeah, with swimming trunks on, nothing wrong. As for public bathrooms...Bleh. Most of the ones in America are really dirty. I don't think the ones at my school had any water left (And half of the bowl was filled with poop) until they added new ones this past summer. They're still working on the bathrooms, and right now, in the boys' bathrooms (Hopefully not the girls') there aren't stalls. There are toilets, but not stalls. :lol: And oh yea, when I went to the Edinburgh tatoo (Or whatever it's called) a few years ago, they had troughs. I was too young to think anything of them, but if I had to use a trough now...I wouldn't.

More F2P Bank Space! [BANKSPACE ACHIEVED!]
Hmm...Good riddance. There you ago again with the name calling. "You're dumb" is not going to make us "stop spamming", as you call it. And by the way, if what you say is true, then it's our problem, not yours. You finally have read our posts! Yayyyyyy! So why have you tried? No, I don't. I can only think of three things that it could stand for. The amount of space a F2P bank currently has, how many items Prankster listed in the first post, or the amount of items Moonshadow had in his bank. It's none of them. I'm confused. People that can't afford to pay for membership are people that are working? You just proved our point? It's more like "If Jagex wants F2Pers to keep playing, and maybe even eventually get membership, then bank space could be a nice thing to add." Huh? What does this have to do with anything?
-
More F2P Bank Space! [BANKSPACE ACHIEVED!]
Then why are you commenting? Yes, because for instance, Moonshadow's bank, has every single item. Where does the 45 come from? I'm glad we helped your ego. Um...Want to go back to my post? The only one who's quoted incorrectly recently is you. What, you think people like you hand around here all the time? Nice try, it's a little too late for that. You've already made enough points about how you think F2P shouldn't get bank space. :wall: Once Jagex notices it, however that happens, our point will have been made. The entire point for a while now is to make Jagex notice. It's too late to squeeze your way out. But if you really somehow do support F2P bank space all of a sudden, I'd recommend leaving the thread, thinking it over, and maybe come back to us with a few ideas. But I doubt it.

More F2P Bank Space! [BANKSPACE ACHIEVED!]
:roll: Seems as if you missed my comment about this. I'm not going to repeat it again. (skillers, pkers, merchants) Yeah, only three types of people. Brilliant, and it took ten months to come to that conclusion. How does that come out to mean "It took me 10 months to come up with this." I hope you noticed there was a lot more than that sentence in the first post. So the official base of useless whining is at Tip.It and there are only 500 real supporters that are dumb enough to come to the conclusion that F2P isn't an introduction to Runescape. Mmk... Over 500. I'll give you a quick brief history of this thread. Prankster used to have a numbered supporters list up. He ended it around 300. That was maybe a year ago, probably more. Somewhere around page 40 maybe. Right now, I'm pretty sure we're nearing 1000 supporters, if not more. By the way, "over" does not equal "are only". And thank you for calling us dumb again, shows us you're brilliancy. And the point is? And once again, "over" DOES NOT equal "only". And oh noes, Prankster didn't edit a picture right. That means we suck and you rule. Of course. Actually, I was and am speaking correctly. Dude = Interjection Guys = Plural Congratulations, you got one right. Yes, "Dude" can be used as a noun, but it can be used as an interjection. Yes, I swore out of frustration. Thank you, it actually seems like you read a tiny part of my post. Great improvement! If you were using "Dude" as an interjection, then you still used improper grammar. You forgot punctuation. If it was an interjection, you should have stuck an exclamation point, or at least a period/comma at the end. You didn't, making your sentence confusing. But enough about grammar. Grammar has nothing to do with who's right and who's wrong. (Unless of course, it's an argument about grammar, but the main argument here is NOT about grammar.) Oh, never mind about you reading my post. Yes. Because of the reason I posted somewhere back there. F2P suggestions are not allowed on the official forums. And yes, we're the masters of useless spam. Thank you. Now please go find the definition of spam. Where did you get 57 from? And they don't have all F2P items in their banks. Going back to Moonshadow's bank, he's missing quite a few items. A few I noticed were talismans. A runecrafter has what, 4-5 of them? That pretty much completes his bank. I really hope you know that Prankster doesn't have control over what every single support of this says/does at the rallies. And still, ever heard of an exaggeration?

How bloody STUPID can you get?!?!
Some guy near here broke into a house and left a bunch of electronics untouched. All that was found missing were pancakes. :) Anyways...I wonder if someone's going to try and rob a police station next. Maybe a jail.

More F2P Bank Space! [BANKSPACE ACHIEVED!]
o.0 His posts got deleted. Anyways...A few things I'd like to add on. Dude = Singular You guys are = Plural. Yes, we're the dumb, immature idiots. And calling us names isn't going to help your case. It'll just make it worse. Id_Suge already gave a nice paragraph about this, I'll add another. I've probably said this many times, I'm just too lazy to look through all 127 (128?) pages for it. There are many reasons why someone wouldn't pay for membership. There are those cases in which it's not a won't, it's a CAN'T. Not everyone has a job/money. They should get one? What if they can't? There's something called a minimum working age. I'm pretty sure it's above 13 nearly everywhere in the USA/UK/Australia/Wherever. Meaning there's a good amount of RuneScapers that can't get a job. And some of them won't be able to have their parents pay for it. Many reasons why, no detail should be needed. Then there's the won't. If we have the money, why don't we use it and stop "whining", right? Nope. Ever considered that some people have more important things that a game in their lives? They might have just enough money to pay for all their necessities. If the game doesn't matter that much to you, then you shouldn't whine, correct? Wrong again. Ever heard of fun? Probably not. You think that everyone flames everyone that doesn't agree with them? :lol: And by the way, we're not flaming, you are. Swearing isn't going to make you look any better either. Thank you for completely missing the point that I made about members supporting this. Some P2Pers support this. We have our reasons. I have too many to list. Anyways, I'm not sure who's doing the crying and spamming. By the way, when your membership runs out, let's your opinion. And just to add on to a point Id_Suge made. I'd like to say, that HAS happened. No, not to us. To people like you. People that come in here, only read the word "F2P" in the title, and post going on their opinion of F2Pers being lazy beggars, scammers and autoers. And Krieger, I hope so.

Rubik's Cube: the most diabolical puzzle ever invented
Since this is bumped, I might as well comment. I finished one! Actually, two. Yay. I've memorized everything except the last step...Still working on that. I was lucky last night and didn't have to do it...So I finished one in 2 minutes. =D

More F2P Bank Space! [BANKSPACE ACHIEVED!]
:lol: About 10 months ago, this was my favorite board. Other than OT, it was my only board. Anyways, I commented on nearly every suggestion. I only liked a certain few, which are now the only ones in my sig. Anyways, there was one suggestion I didn't support. I think it had something to do with coal. Not sure what, but anyways, I wasn't alone. A bunch of other people didn't support. I repeated their counter-arguments, which I felt made sense, and added quite a few of my own. The suggester commented on every single point I made, and I did the same in return. Back and forth, and eventually, we took up pretty much an entire page. xD Anyways, we moved to PMs. I wonder if I still have them. (BTW, it ended in a draw. We were both too lazy to continue.) A little more on-topic...What if F2P got more bankspace AND the ex-mem closet was added? Yes, it would take more space. Yes, it would cost more. Yes, it would be better for everyone.

More F2P Bank Space! [BANKSPACE ACHIEVED!]
A few minutes after his last post, I replied. Four minute later, Unorclan takes him down. Still, Jackle hasn't replied. Tetsuya and Id_Suge seemed to have ended it...Not. Killerred and Moneyman add in their input as well. This is what teamwork is like. :wink: (Lol...SIX people have countered his post.)

Ha. Looks like I have the highest total so far. I have 628. Only person within 30 of that is Echofish, with 616. Lol, we're all treating this like a contest. :D

Personality Disorders? Anybody?
Paranoid |||||||||||||||||| 78% Schizoid |||||||||||||||||| 78% Schizotypal |||||||||||||||| 62% Antisocial |||||||||||||| 54% Borderline |||||||||||||||| 62% Histrionic |||||||||||| 46% Narcissistic |||||||||||| 42% Avoidant |||||||||||||||| 70% Dependent |||||||||||||||| 66% Obsessive-Compulsive |||||||||||||||| 70% Hm... Paranoid is probably around there. Schizoid is a little high. Schizotypal is higher than I thought. Antisocial is much lower than I thought. Borderline is a little high. Histrionic and Narcissistic are a little high. Avoidant is about right. My family says I'm quite dependent, or was, but I personally feel that it's starting to change. And of course, OCD is about right. (I think I have a very minor form of it...And lol...I have a few Monk t-shirts. :) ) So, overall, I guess I'm quite weird

School schedule and class discussion for 2007-08!
First, a little explanation about my school. We have periods. 7 periods a day. So 35 a week. Each period is 49 minutes, with the exception of 1-3, being 50 minutes. We also have a 24-25 minute lunch. We have two minutes passing time. (Madness) Anyways, our classes our divided into two main sections. Core, and non-core. Original names. Anyways, the core subjects are the four main subjects...Math, English, science and social studies. Each core is assigned a section number, and each number is assigned a class. The non-core subjects are made up of Phys. Ed, world language (mine is French), arts rotation (Music/drama/video/art) and two electives (Mine are band and Latin). Yes, Latin is not considered a world language. And as for arts rotation...We have four terms instead of two semesters. Each term, everybody has a different arts rotation than the last term. But people can have different arts rotations during the same term. Confusing. Anyways, finally, onto my schedule. Section 1 = Math (Accelerated Algebra) Section 2 = English Section 3 = SS (US History) Section 4 = Science (Earth Science) Arts Rotation = Music for this term I'll abbreviate section into "S". Homeroom = HR. [hide=Schedule] Monday: HR Music French S1 Lunch S2 Latin S3 S4 Tuesday: HR PE S2 S3 French S4 Lunch Band S1 Wednesday: HR PE Band S4 French S1 Lunch S2 S3 Thursday: HR Music S1 S2 French S3 Lunch S4 Latin -After School: Probably Math Team- Friday: HR S2 S3 S4 Lunch S1 Music Study Hall French [/hide] It's decent. I have friends in all my classes. Only thing I don't like...PE first period on Tuesday and Wednesday. -.- (Blasphemy.) So...Um...Yeah. Sparta.

Tag Banned in Colorado School.
Damn, that's a fun one. I got pegged in the nuts playing that once (owwww) but that was always a damn fun game. Sounds sort of like a game I used to play...Off the wall. Fun. \ Anyways, I scraped my elbows and knees once while playing basketball. Got a nice bruise while playing kickball. (No, I wasn't not kicked in the balls and got a bruise there) The worst I got out of tag? I dunno, maybe the time some fat kid came lumbering over to me (He was "it") and I didn't get a chance to escape his body fat. Then he fell onto me, but I was unscathed. But geez...I thought MY principal was bad. Over-protective people FTL?

My First Job! (at 13 years old! and its good!)
Nice. I'm getting mails from the local soccer and baseball leagues asking me to ref/ump. Maybe I should sometime. And a little FYI...The legal working age in Massachusetts is 15, I believe. But I guess that doesn't apply to some jobs...Like babysitting, lawn mowing, snow shoveling, being an aide, etc.

More F2P Bank Space! [BANKSPACE ACHIEVED!]
If you're being sarcastic, how is that not an organized bank? If you weren't being sarcastic, calling people "tards" isn't going to help your case. It makes you look like an idiot who resorts to name-calling. How is this immature? Do F2P not have the right to ASK for things? And also the extra bankspace for members is mainly for all the items members have. How do I know? I'm a member. Yes, believe it or not, quite a few members actually support this. Also, this is not just about random event clothing. I've seen F2P banks with NO random event clothing, yet are still full. And I have to go with Prankster on this. You're 1337 speak isn't funny, insulting, or anything you think it is. It's just making you look stupid. Why don't you READ the first post and watch the video? Yeah you're going to pay 6 dollars a month for only bank space. Brilliant. :lol: That's exactly the point we're trying to make.

What is your actual post count?
My best guess would be that the posts are in topics that have been deleted/cleaned. The posts still count in your post count, yet can't be found through searches. Still, Bubsa's 4.2K missing posts are a little strange...Guess it accumulates.
