My Problem With Rap Music...
Ignorance. Try to just 'talk fast' and see what it sounds like, ok? It does take a good amount of rhythm to be able to rap well. You can't just talk fast and expect it to sound good, and anyone who thinks that is, well, :wall: . At any rate the hell is up with everyone thinking it isn't music? Dislike it, sure, but it damn well is music as it fits the very deffinition of music I posted earlier. 3 words: freedom of speech. If I don't find it music then it isn't music for me. So don't try te convince me with your deffinition. [hide=Restrictions on Freedom of Speech]Defamation (slander and libel) Product defamation (criticism of commercial products; sometimes called product libel or product disparagement; for example, the Texas False Disparagement of Perishable Food Products Act) Obscenity Lying in court (perjury) Talking out of turn during a trial, or talk that causes contempt of court Speaking about a trial outside the court room after the judge forbids it (subjudicy). Speaking publicly without a permit Speaking publicly outside of a free speech zone Limits on the size of public demonstrations Profanity on television Hate speech that is defamatory or causes incitement to violence Noise pollution Speech that contains a copyright infringement Company secrets (trade secrets), such as how a product is made or company strategy (Example: Seven herbs and spices of KFC chicken) Political secrets: campaign strategies, dirty past/deeds of a politician, etc. Classified information: sensitive or secret to protect the national interest. Lies that cause a crowd to panic or causes Clear and present danger or Imminent lawless action, such as Shouting fire in a crowded theater Fighting words doctrine:(U.S. 1942) "insulting or 'fighting words', those that by their very utterance inflict injury or tend to incite an immediate breach of the peace" Sedition: speech or organization (vs Freedom of Assembly) that is deemed as tending toward insurrection against the established order. Sedition often includes subversion of a constitution and incitement of discontent (or resistance) to lawful authority. Sedition may include any commotion, though not aimed at direct and open violence against the laws. Treason: to talk publicly of the death of all countrymen or the overthrow of the government Blasphemy is illegal in several Western countries (freedom of religion as well as speech could be given here) The first clause of UK's Terrorism Act 2006 punishes "Encouragement of terrorism" with up to seven years in jail. In Sweden a law called "Hets mot folkgrupp" ("Agitation against an ethnic group"), usually translated to hate speech, denies promotion of racism and homophobia. In Finland, a new copyright law was enacted in October 2005, which prohibited "services making possible or facilitating the circumvention of effective technical [copy prevention] measures". (See 2005 amendment to the Finnish Copyright Act and Penal Code)[/hide] [hide=The Internet and Freedom of Speech]The development of the Internet opened new possibilities for achieving freedom of speech using methods that do not depend on legal measures. Pseudonymity and data havens (such as Freenet) allow free speech, as the technology guarantees that material cannot be removed (censored). A gripe site is one of the latest forms of exercising free speech on the Internet. Web sites which fall foul of government censors in other countries are often re-hosted on a server in a country with no such restrictions. Given that the United States has in many respects the least restrictive governmental policies in the world on freedom of speech, many of these websites re-host their content on an American server and thus escape censorship while remaining available to their target audience. This is especially the case with neo-nazi and other sites promoting racial hatred, since these are prohibited in a number of European countries. It should be mentioned, however, that the US Government has attempted to regulate certain acts and speech on the Internet (US v. Baker). The Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF) is an organization dedicated to protecting freedom of speech on the Internet. The Open Net Initiative (ONI) is a collaboration between the Citizen Lab at the Munk Centre for International Studies, University of Toronto, Berkman Center for Internet & Society at Harvard Law School, the Advanced Network Research Group at the Cambridge Security Programme, University of Cambridge, and the Oxford Internet Institute, at Oxford University which aims to investigate, expose, and analyze Internet filtering and surveillance practices in a credible and non-partisan fashion. Many countries utilize filtering software sold by US companies. The Chinese government has developed some of the most sophisticated forms of internet censorship in order to control or eliminate access to information on sensitive topics such as the Tiananmen Square protests of 1989, Falun Gong, Tibet, Taiwan, pornography or democracy. They have also enlisted the help of some American companies like Microsoft, who have subsequently been criticized by proponents of freedom of speech.[/hide] So technically under Freedom of Speech, this topic is not allowed, as it slanders a whole music genre based on bad eggs. Do not go on about Freedom of Speech when you seem to know very little about it.

Can it be?! - Real life pictures
Runs, this is an online forum, if you want a truely honest opinion ask a good friend. An online forum is for discussing stuff apart from how you look, generally if too many people compliment on how you look, it can end up with an inflated ego, besides as its been said before, this is for letting other tip.iters who the person behind the name is, not for showing off how you look. Who cares if people comment on how you look?

The meaning of 'w00t'.
Only thing I can see wrong is that Purists should actually go \/\/007. leetspeak (13375p34k) is about using as little letters as possible. Quite a funny read though.

Can it be?! - Real life pictures
Who are all these people anyway? Since when have these ppl been active off topicers lol. Posers/Attention seekers take note: I wasnt aware that the point of this thread was to post comments about other peoples pictures. I thought that it was meant for us to post a nice picture of ourselves to people could put a face to the name not a topless "rawr look at my sexy body" or cleavage shot type picture designed purely to get compliments from people. If you wanna show off your body post it on Myspaze and make your profile public. *would like to see a version of this thread with NO COMMENTS only pictures* You forget, Myspace isn't enough for these type of people, their pictures must be everywhere with everyone commenting on them in order for them to inflate their already over-inflated ego. I agree with Merc, not on the no comments bit (people can comment if they want to), but for the purpose of the thread being that you post a picture to show what the person behind the name looks like. EDIT: Greenboy mostly stuck the the Game Discussion area, maybe a few posts in OT, but not enough to make him known here.

Existance
I generally take it as a good idea not to think about this sort of question. In non-exsistance, nothing can exsist, so how can we imagine what its is like, after all if someone managed to know what non-exsistance is like, then technically its still exsistance.

Jagex's Extreme Measures: "Freedom is not Free"
This is not true. The credit card companies, don't like chargebacks (since it costs THEM money) and will fine the companies who allow it to happen. These fines are big money (millions). However since it is done by a computer, and automatically at that, it is not Jagex's fault, they don't know if a credit card has been stolen.

Less Players = Smaller, Tighter RS Community?
If the price of losing RWT and Autoers means I can no longer give stuff to friends, host private drop parties or even help out newbies then I'd rather have the scum.

Zombie Plans-Revised
First, I would aquire a Claymore. Secondly, I'd get alot of lighters and keep them lit while attached to cans of deoderant. Third, I would stock up on food. Fourth, I would aquire a Sniper Rifle with a lot of bullets. Fifth, Block all enternces with wood. Then comes an iron fence, sandbags and barbed wire. Stocking up on food when needed until all zombies are dead. What type of zombies are we talking about? The [developmentally delayed]s or more human zombies?

Oh, so now f2p wants more bank space?
F2P does need a little more bank space. Not much, just another row/ row and a half max. Even with my Bank organised and 5 "wasted spots" (gotta keep some members stuff), I only have 1 free spot at the best of times.
