Goddamnit Alg you made me all nostalgic

 

I miss Stork

As do I. Do we know whatever happened to him? Also, I guess you're right, Alg. We can always try.

In short, he quit RuneScape and lost interest in tip.it as a result.

I just now made a Steam group for the Tavern, http://steamcommunity.com/groups/FaladorTavern

Please join.

 

It's to serve two purposes; one is to make it easier to arrange multiplayer games, the other is to avoid clogging up the Back Room here with discussion regarding the relocation.

There is no relocation

True. We're not going anywhere, Mather.

Regardless of whether we relocate or not, a Steam community makes a bit of sense.

I would have thought you were all in an IRC chat or something. If not, yeah, a skype group or a steam community to organize.

Nope, the use of a forum for communication is kind of necessary for us because of the timezones. For instance the largest difference; the difference between me [GMT+1] and Grim [EST-2] is 8 hours, if not for the fact that I have the sleep pattern close only to that of a dolphin (dolphins sleep only with half their brain at a time, thus they are awake 24/7) I'd be in bed by the time he'd get out of school.

Skype logs conversations, which is less of a hassle than reading up the logs from Logbot. I know many RS groups use it like the unofficial HYT chat, EoE, DGS, even the tipit staff use it. It's pretty user-friendly.

Still is easier to use a forum due to functions such as quoting, so you know what message it is in response to. Quoting in Skype means first pasting the message, then writing your own, and you've barely got any control over whether it pastes it as a quote or plain text.

 

It's pretty easy to see who quotes who with skype too, pretty much in the same way that our forum software works. Forums are universal, but I'm just saying you'd probably find a skype chat group to give you the functionality you're looking for (instant communication within reason/timezone limitations) without giving up what you are used to here (quoting, removing messages, setting topics, etc). You can actually just highlight what you want to quote and ctrl+v to automatically paste formatted, and you can right click paste plain-text if you don't want formatting -- which is pretty similar to our quote and multiquote system. (Hell, it's even more functional since you don't have to cut out parts of other people's quotes if you only want to address one line)

 

Just saying it will probably suit your needs better than IRC or a steam group will. I still think our forums are better communication as well, but it's easier for people to run messenger programs like irc or skype on their phones or in the background than it is with steam or checking an entirely different forum altogether.

 

I'll go back to lurking now, don't mind me. ^^

I feel like I'm turning into metal, starting from my chest (and internal organs) and spreading out. Everything is distractingly uncomfortable and my breath tastes of cupronickel.

 

On a very much related note, my left arm, which is the only extremity the sensation has spread to as of yet, no longer feels any pain when I punch stuff.

Please see a doctor.

Or don't, and probably have a serious medical problem. Seriously, go to a damn doctor.

Never gonna see a doctor for anything unless there's a steady flow of blood, bone's visible or something's poking the wrong way. I'd be damned if I'd ever actually succumb to anything but a proper injury. If I could ride a bike right away after procuring a heavy¹ concussion in the fourth grade, it'll take at least a truck to debilitate me.

¹ I was later told I was lucky not to be suffering from cranial hemorrhaging. Going by the scale, it would be a class IIIb, as quite a crowd had time to gather before I came to.

 

Besides, with how this has been acting, I would be bedridden by now if it was gonna kill me; it's been going on all day and it started with my heart and lungs, the only two parts of my body that can be called weak. (Note: I lack stamina (easily countered by sheer willpower followed by immense pain at the end of the session), I'm not suffering from some chronic disease... at least to my knowledge.)

That's even more worrying than the last post. Seriously, you should see someone about that. Like it or not, your body shouldn't be doing that.

Which part? The concussion that happened 9 years ago or the fact that I can push myself past the limit like horses can?

 

Sometimes when I sprint, my legs take over for my heart before I get tired, the pain is because I eventually have to stop when my arms start to asphyxiate, and I then struggle with the fact that my heart is on the verge of exploding when it suddenly has to work again when I slow down while it has yet to get down to a rate it can actually handle exerting force at.

Essentially, it's just like when a horse gives its all for a long distance, then instantly dies upon reaching the destination. Except I know to slow down slowly enough so as to not kill myself by doing so.

Still though, hurts like a [bleep].

You folks have forgotten; everyone is a doctor in Norway.

 

And you know what they say

 

If everyone's a doctor... no one is.

No, no. I'm not a doctor, I'm a tank. I don't need to find out what's wrong with me physically when I know I've got the health to give it a proper beatdown.

Diseases don't harm me, I harm diseases.

No, no. I'm not a doctor, I'm a tank. I don't need to find out what's wrong with me physically when I know I've got the health to give it a proper beatdown.

Physiology does not work that way. Please see an expert.

We should start a charity to teach scholastically starved Norwegians like Mather the basic sciences.

Agreed. Seriously, Mather. You need medical attention and probably a chat with a psych for safe measure. This is not how the human body operates.

Hey Archi, I'm having the same problem you had before with Steam

 

You're marked as offline

Making me chat with a shrink would only serve to make one more guy start to lose grip of his sanity.

 

And no, seeing a doctor about anything other than a severe injury is not going to be necessary. I am built like a tank. My body repels anything that has the potential to harm it. It's even resistant to physical injury; a few days ago I attempted to make the nastiest bruise I could by slapping the same place over and over, I had to give up around time number thousand, because the only thing I got was a very minor localized swelling with a leathery texture that served as armor, which was mostly gone at the end of the day.

 

Normal physiology may not work like that, but nothing about me gives two shits about normal.

 

 

Nex, Archi's not here anymore, he's completely left TIF and he's not coming back.
