The N-word, is it actually offensive?
Because that is entirely relevant to being offended. It pretty much just tells me to ask someone else, that maybe actually has a clue. Did you ask it in spanish or something? No, but you think a quiz in Spanish ONE wouldn't be that hard, especially that we've only been in school for a month. Maybe he just had one of those days where everything you do turns to [cabbage], or maybe he had problems at home that month that prevented him from studying. Maybe his cat died. Maybe you should be a little more tolerant and not be so quick to jump to conclusions, you jerk.

[TF2] It's MANN Vs. Machine!
Haven't played the game in months, but I do enjoy reading the ever-changing thread titles.

Whether a bunch of white over-privileged high school kids feel like they're entitled to use a racist slur their ancestors used on black slaves as a way to dehumanize them is completely irrelevant. Fact of the matter is should you use it, there will be repercussions (probably in the form of angry fists). And you are patently dumb as hell if you don't understand why it might cause that reaction. It's equally dumb to propose that it should be a perfectly acceptable word to throw around.

iPhone 3GS 32GB - black. Just ordered one. Oops.- Impossible Achievements
The first parts good, but the second should be "Do not reproduce". Actually, that would be more fitting. Kudos.- Impossible Achievements
Valve should just auto-ban anyone who reaches that achievement with the message "Go out; get laid." Because, damn.- Dreams
I thought people liked hearing about weird dreams, but maybe I'm wrong and I should stop telling people. Problem is people don't keep their recaps short and simple. They also sometimes go into long tirades of possible symbolisms and meanings behind them bathing in a [cabbage] fountain, or whatever. Nothing makes me zone out faster than people analyzing dreams.- Steam

but out of those few things, I would say that psuedo-witty "cool disinterest" posts would have to be included. plus they're several times less useful. Sorry I wasn't trying to belittle your thread, it was just an (unnecessary) apropos comment.- Dreams
- Things you do that you think no one else does
I do this too. It's a habit from when I used to work as a moderator and had night shifts (which was pretty much every night), so I wouldn't wake up people in the house with my nocturnal feasts.- Things you do that you think no one else does
Also, I offer to revise papers for friends just because I enjoy finding grammatical/spelling problems. It's like an adult Easter Egg hunt; instead of chocolate you get smug self-satisfaction. That probably also makes me uncool by default.- Study: Games are depressing...or are they?
The ending to Fallout 3 made me very sad and not a "wow this is art *wistful tear*" more like aauuughhhhh.- The Ramen Noodle Topic
Powdered artificial flavoring. Are there any that don't contain animal products? There are ones with "vegetable" powder. Whatever that tastes like.- Official Aion thread (Visions update)
If they haven't announced it on the website then there's no official date set yet.- The Ramen Noodle Topic
I usually add half a meat stock and sprinkle whatever spices came with. Been a while since I last had noodles though.- Mentally challenged man severely beaten up

SomethingAwful forum members. :P Goons in MMOs go pretty far back (there is, or has been, a goon guild in basically ever MMO made - even Runescape. The Goonfleet's influence in EVE Online is apparently huge). To get an idea of what they're like check out the raid-encounter videos, where they talk about everything except the actual encounters. The guilds are usually known for being hated in most MMOs they play since they troll and make fun of everyone not in the guild. Really great guilds to be a part of though as they're very nice and helpful to people in it, they also have a knack for advancing fast in MMOs, and the guild chat is never dead (at least wasn't in WoW). There are guilds at the aiononline forums that'll roll Asmo just so they can kill us. And the game hasn't even hit open beta yet. Tres fun!- Official Aion thread (Visions update)
Here's where I downloaded mine: http://aion.patcher.ncsoft.com/liteinstaller/aion[Caution: Executable File] Also, like I said earlier, I am EU and I've pre-ordered already. Will be playing Elyos with the EU goons, but we haven't settled on a server yet. The Open Beta dates haven't been announced yet either, as seen here: http://kindred.aion.tv/status/- Official Aion thread (Visions update)
That is probably the Asian servers. I know WoW did something similar where they charged for hourly time cards and not per month time cards. America and Europe probably will work on 15ish dollars a month. Probably is. Not for the reason that it will be sold out, but for the reason that you get good stuff with the Collectors edition. Ah ok, I was just wondering if I could save myself a buck. Does the Collector's Edition cost more or anything either? The CE costs about 30eur ($42) more, and you get: 16.5cm hand-painted figurine of the powerful Aiva. Exclusive in-game items. Official Aion soundtrack. Asmodian A2 poster with Elysian map on back Elyos A2 Poster with Asmodaen map on back Trial Code Exclusive Digital items: Elyos or Asmodian Special Wing Set, Earring , Exclusive colour dye, 2 Exclusive Emotes, Exclusive Title The normal one (if you pre-order) gives you: Access to all available Aion Beta weekends Access to Server and Character pre-selection Access to Headstart Exclusive digital items including: o Talisman of Lodas (1 hour XP + 20%) o Dark Cloud Hat (Attribute booster) o Ancient Ring Earth effect I don't know yet if I'll keep my pre-order. It's pretty much dependent on whether any of my friends will play as well, since leveling by yourself is hella boring. Also depends somewhat on the goon EU turn-out.- The official World of Warcraft thread.
There's some NPC dialog in the PTR involving the Tauren considering worshiping "the light of the sun" or whatever the actual quote is. As for dwarf shamans, aren't they pretty well-represented in the Wildhammer Clan already? Doesn't seem to be a joke, but yeah, there's a huge thread about this on the SA MMO subforum which has existed for a couple of days already. People are still posting and making predictions and stuff so it seems like it's legit. However, there are two guys who's made a bunch of wild predictions and claiming it's "straight from Blizzard's mouth", but they've already been outed as trolls. I think they're banned as well. Maybe it's those guys he's referring to? The OP of the SA thread appears like he has some inside connections; and if there's a group of people who can call BS on stuff like this, it's the collective hivemind of the SA goons.- School
First year of University for me, will be doing IT & Communicationscience for 3 years. Registrations open up tomorrow and the school year officially starts next Monday. I'm pretty excited. Feels nice to have the next 3 years planned out for me now; won't have to worry about anything other than doing my school work. The last 2 years have been the complete opposite: uncertain and bumpy to say the least. - Pictures of your cell phones.
