I find it intriguing that the site has a disclaimer that reads "This site uses online satellite imagery from Google Maps and MSN VIrtual Earth without permission..."

Another aspect to forums is that sometimes the 'regulars' - assuming there are any - run out of new/unique serious topics to post and thus the chatty threads become more prevailent. Or the board gets slower. See it happen all the time.

Well, the mages are fun...and once out of the newbie class-starter areas it's...well...huge. I'm so lost. :D

I just had to post a new pic so I could 'justify' complaining about how time consuming it can be to re-install your OS and all programs. Not to mention trying to remember all those little things you did to tweak WinXP the way you like. What was it with XP and all those darn popup reminder things.... I only have one game installed right now...and that's WoW. Yes, I caved in and bought it a couple days ago. Feel free to bash me for it. hehehe.....

Musc about sums it up for me too. Fantasy is what (many) people are used to, and they start to cry if the usual stuff isn't there. Dragons, damsels, fireballs, the same classes and spells etc. I've seen games that are more sci-fi oriented, but it still amounts to a similar gameplay concept - fighter(soldier)/magic(chemical)/archer(grenader). And they usually - not always of course - don't sell as well. Thus I'd assume business wise it's about that aspect. Consumer-wise, perhaps players tend to associate tech/guns/space with shooters/action/strategy and not RPG's out of long habit. And as we all know, some habits die hard.

...you can just say 'no'/insult him when he asks you about maybe joining forces or whatever come on line he uses after the intro dialogue. I've done that before. Although I'd then go back later to get him, before leaving the planet, so I dont' know if he just shows up on the Ebonhawk regardless, like GoTo or something. To skip his intro dialogue entirely yeah you'd need a mod or something.

My spouse doesn't like to read anything but tech manuals...plus he doesn't care about the 'net much. Computers yes, the net, no. That WoW thread is funny...guess that kid wasn't thinking too clearly at that hour. LOL

It's a song by Oingo Boingo...aka Danny Elfman's old band.

(What is the law?) (What is the law?) Animals came from miles around So tired of walking so close toe the ground They needed a chance, that's what they said Life is better walking on two legs But they were in for a big surprise 'Cause they didn't know the law! CHORUS (What is the law) No spill blood What is the law (No spill blood) (Who makes the rules) Someone else Who makes the rules (Someone else) The rules are written in the stone Break the rules and you get no bones All you get is ridicule, laughter And a trip to the house of pain! CHORUS (in reverse order) We walk on two legs not on four To walk on four legs breaks the law What happens when we break the law? What happens when the rules aren't fair? We all know here we go from there To the house of pain! To the house of pain! (What is the law) What is the law (Who makes the rules) Who makes the rules We walk on two legs not on four To the house of pain To the house of pain To the house of pain To the house of pain To the house of pain (No spill blood)

Demolition Man - The Police Fits my current mood.

Most threads in this forum are pretty silly.

I guess that's my problem....I like to be as equal as possible (I know they're 'just' animals' but you know what I mean)....I don't see myself as master of any living thing. There are a few breeds of dogs that I wouldn't mind sharing my life with...but it would be too much work to train them & keep them from being lonely all the time, for me. Not to mention I'd want to have a much bigger house/yard than I do now.

Most people raise dogs to be too slavish/not independent. You have to spend a lot of time training them if you want a well-behaved mutt. Dogs drool. They poop all over everything. They bark at everything. I've had cats that fetch, come when they're called, and that are absolutely loyal to 'me' without much training effort. Cats rule. :D Although wolf-puppies are the bomb. :D

I still say bald men are sexy. And easy to clean too.

Typically, I don't find long hair on men attractive. Especially men with long hair who seem like they never wash or brush their hair. There are exceptions, of course. Fabio isn't one of them. My husband prefers shorter hair on women. Thus, I occasionally cut my hair pretty short. But I personally like my hair longer. Partly because I'm too lazy to cut it very often & my hair grows really fast. Longest it's been is to the top of my butt...shortest is top of the neck w/feathered sides.

....but of course. :ph34r:

Why are you subjecting yourself to such torture?

Yesterday's Hero -- Ignatius Jones (128kb, and no, it's not the full song, just 20 seconds)

It often confuses me when people change their long-time avatars. Course, I'm guilty of doing that myself so...

Oh no...not that again. LOL :D

Guys with sandy-brown hair for me - y'know, light to medium brown that has reddish and/or blondish highlights in the sun/during summer. Not that dislike the other colors. :D

The reason my desktop changes so much is because I'm always making new ones and then testing them to make sure they don't completely suck.

I'm aware of that, but Numa is easier to type. The Ozone one. I haven't found an Italian version yet.
