  1. Good instincts, my friend. Illegal scams, especially involving information, are for suckers. If you and your mates are canny enough to make this scam work then you should learn more about stocks, and make pots of cash perfctly legally.
  2. Oh, it happened. I was here and it was glorious. When they make the film of these boards Feng gets played by Nick Cage.
  3. I've NEVER had that damned function make a game play when it wouldn't before.
  4. Things have been quiter since we uploaded those hypnagogic pain switches.
  5. What's the insanely rich idea, sluggo, ol' buddy? huh? Huh? I recently had the idea of making telescopic sights in the shape of a peace symbol. I bet those would sell.
  6. Reading theslug's post I just had that dreadful sinking feeling you get when you realise you've got a horribly overdue library book.
  7. I've had a chat to the veterans, and they explained that we had a period where abuse of the editing function to conduct flame wars got so bad that on one occasion Obs considered shutting the whole forum down. So, I guess in answer to your question, we have it because our members are so delightfully special.
  8. I've got a lovely shiny thermaltake case, which is kept sparkly clean, and on a surge protector. I guess it must have just been the graphics card, as the 7300 is good as gold. Anyway, fingers crossed I think I may have a big new client in the works, and if that comes through I can just buy a new damn PC! Woooo! *Does the dance of money*
  9. I'll give you a clue. That 'pencil installation engineer' was wearing a false moustache. fishdogg, what version of the game are you running? I seem to recall the game being re-released recently. If so, maybe that version is xp-friendly?
  10. How about some more novel core classes: Chef Door-to-door salesman (more dangerous than you'd think) Nerd
  11. He was suffering from a combination of diabetes, pulminory fibrosis, hepatitis C (likely contracted via a post-accident blood transfusion), and the aftermath of 2 prior strokes. I doubt that the doctors bothered much in figuring out which of these ailments pushed him over the edge. I see what you mean.
  12. Wow, is that for real? It reads like a bad joke but it has just enough fact in it to make me think maybe somebody is serious. The _Japanese_ government is conspiring against Jewish Americans? Wow. Just wow.
  13. Is this going to be another of our amazing circular debates, or are we going to be more interesting? has anyone eher actually been to Iran or is Iranian? Or a woman?
  14. If you are interested in Sudan, I can't recommend any book higher than 'War in Darfur' its awesome. Very clearly set out, but also very heavyweight in expertise. Anyway, to chip in on Tale and nick, it sounds like you're talking at cross purposes. If you're pointing a finger of blame then yes it comes to an individual's choice. However, if you want to apportion blame then you're asking a why question. Why did x happen? And that's clearly not all down to an individual. I'd suggest some sort of influence diagram woudl help, if you can be bothered to draw one.
  15. Well, we've known for a long time that we rock and/or roll.
  16. If enough people want it back, we'd certainly talk it over.
  17. Agreed. Iran, for example, is perfectly willing to have women in University, and will even sponsor academics abroad, whereas the Talibs throw battery acid at little girls who go to school. There are variations, mon amis.
  18. Absolutely awful day yesterday. I had to get a taxi for 30 quid to get to my back specialist, then got told I was an hour late, and have to pay for half the session AND got no treatment. DAMNIT! I slouched away to see an ex, armed with champagne and good red wine. Great evening, with a good friend, but hungover today. Military style haircut today to make my sergeant happy. I now look like a fat teenager.
  19. And so he became gay, and discovered tolerance. And lived happily ever after.
  20. Take the sacrifice of xp, ye cheating little weasels!
  21. I think that's just the pencil you've got up your nose.
  22. Well, a lot of people are less enthusiastic, but I sure as hell think Neverwinter Nights 2, Mask of the Betrayer is as good as Planescape: Torment, particularly in the areas you mention.
  23. Doesn't say what he died of. My guess would be after so much body trauma he had cancer.
  24. I thought some of them were, but anyway they tried to be. t was all part of the thing in PST where it gave you things that were just there for the experience. Like the drinks in the Burning Man tavern.
  25. What do you have against Nestle? They cause the most cared for children in third world countries to be malnourished and poop themselevs to death. And they don't do it for love or God or country or revenge. They do it for money. I only have one boycott. You know I'm hardly a bleeding heart. But there are bloody limits.
