You need to get back to Chicago. That California air has messed up your thinking.

Maybe you could find out who maintains the wifi. See if they can guarantee you some bandwidth for $20. The weird thing I've seen playing wifi is that Tronning doesn't hog a lot of bandwidth, but it suffers greatly when other connections start browsing. When I started messing the QoS settings, nobody...

In fact, I'm sure we could generate a list of meanings for "kill" that do not involve "murder". However, how many meanings can we list of "murder" that don't mean killing a person? I declare equivocation! I beg to differ. I don't think I was twisting words at all. Ther...

We are talking the difference between the common accepted usage of the word, kill , as opposed to the desire of some to use a word that has essentially one meaning. When I kill the engine in my car, nobody thinks of murder. When I kill a process on my computer, murder never enters the picture. On th...

Then, if you would think it's ok to kill in a game, why is it so wrong to rape in a game? How is one harmless, while the other is promoting so much aggression and violence? The word kill has many shades of meaning, ranging from stopping something, (a ball or an engine), or deleting a section of an ...

If you actually read the whole thing you'd realise that this is the opposed opinion: People don't think it's alright to mention r**e in online gaming. My opinion: Yes they do think it's alright. Well, I just checked. I am a people, and I don't think it's alright. At times I have tolerated when I am...

:sdot: Yes that would be your parents fault for bringing you up not telling you not to be a "jerk". :sdot: No one HAS to be civil. :sdot: And again, it would be your parents fault you're not! Good enough answers, or would u like to ramble some more? Just a couple more: Should I blame your...

When you get a computer, you don't have to sign any terms and conditions before you buy it, saying you won't behave like this online, but when you get an internet provider you have to sign terms and conditions against this behaviour online. Attached is Armagetron Licence Agreement, nowhere in this ...

So, really instead of having a go at people you should realise that by making this game available to anyone and everyone, you, the game makers have subjected kids to this. You hold the responsibility, not the players. This kind of blame-shifting is comical. "I'm not responsible for what I do o...

Wait...
Is this a love note?

OH, WALL.....
GAAAAH

Stop trying to troll me, minister. Didn't mean to wake you, your highness. But thanks for implying that I'm "Kinda Slow ;)", you're probably a really kind human being I fail to see how calling myself Kinda SLOW could be aimed at you. Didn't mean any offense. Out of respect for the multipl...

Asides from being extremely hilarious, I don't think it's particularly wise to make posts like that... As I said previously, these issues are very personal to people, and although internet culture isn't the kindest place a lot of the time, we manage to maintain a reasonable level respect on these f...

What if Jesus is alive today and his name is Richard Dawkins? Considering his history of attempting to reform bad churches, how would that affect your viewpoint? ooh, ooh!!... and what if the moon were really made of GREEN CHEESE! Sorry, it seems I got off topic a wee bit. edit: But I could see a p...

You're misinterpreting him! All of the servers where you can die due to rubber are rarely played anymore. He clearly does not want to remove rubber as in "make all servers zero rubber". He wants to eliminate the possibility to die due to rubber running out. So, remove it by making it infi...

Haven't any of you read the trash that makes the NY Times bestseller list? What about Stephen King's long drawn-out campfire stories? Right, but none of those things are used to justify discrimination, abuse, murder, and genocide on a massive scale. The Bible is in a whole different class of bad. I...
