Dark Moth

Way to lighten the mood, gabs.

Things won't improve if you have that attitude your whole life. You have to look at more than just the bad in your life, otherwise that's all you'll ever see.

Cheer up, Hades! You've still got your whole life ahead of you! Things may take a turn for the better. Never give up.

I love Pennsylvania's scenery. The trees and hills help make it quite picturesque. My hometown would be so much better though, if we improved our road system and cleaned up the pollution a bit (and if we didn't have cloud cover 70% of the time).

The original X-Box was a great console. :D It had probably the best graphics and lots of solid titles. I don't think it's fair to judge the X-Box 360's success yet. Give it more time before using the word "Dreamcast".

So why wouldn't they want us to see this? The media's always seemed eager to cover any major failure.

Hades, tonight you will be visited by three spirits...

wtf... Mario and the Nintendo classics asside (that's right they came from Japan)... what about Final Fantasy and the Resident Evil series. Geezus. Japan rocks for computer games. Saying they're all into nothing but porn is kinda lame on your part. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> You gotta admit that porn is a factor in a lot of their games, though. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> And that's been a bad thing since when...? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Not necessarily bad, just pointing that out. (It can be overdone, though)

Cassidy, I love your avatar. Just thought I'd let you know.

One of the influence system's biggest flaws is it's circumstance-based. You have to have the right character in at the right time. If not, you get no influence from them at all. As for dialogue, many times if you disagree with the NPC on something, you risk losing influence with them. It feels many times like the party members are trying to influence you. If they really wanted to make it work, they would have made so you could convince others to your own point of view even if they disagree at first.

The X-Box was doing really well. It had some really great titles under its belt. It'd be a shame to see the entire console go down due to stupid and avoidable hardware problems.

We have...rivers in our city. Too bad we don't take more advantage of our scenery.

Sony's probably loving this.

NOOOOOO!!!! MS can't die before Halo 3 comes out!!!

I have the exact opposite approach. Running down civilians repeatedly with a Hummer or a truck is why I play that game. Beating people with a bat and watch them scream until the floor is covered with blood is pretty cool, too. Getting away from the police afterwards is kind of a problem though. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> And to think you had such an innocent face! I admit, beating up officers is pretty fun, especially when you take those pills that allow you to punch people 20 feet into the air. Blowing up vehicles is pretty fun, too. :D

No more "Mothman" pics either, I take it?

You know. I think you only keep saying that to keep the stalkers away. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> :"> You can't be too careful.

When playing GTA, I find myself trying to avoid as many civilian casualties as possible. I know they're all pixelated, but my guilty conscience always catches up with me. Probably the worst thing I've done (aside from killing) is playing through K1 as DS and taking the wraid plate away from that woman on Tatooine. It was the one her husband had found, and she and her family needed the credits for survival. I was desperate for DS points at the time, so I took it. Needless to say, I felt pretty bad afterward, even if the characters weren't real. If I play through as DS again, that's something I'm going to avoid doing.

CoF, I just wanted to tell you that you look a lot like a guy from my own school. Just F.Y.I. I might sign up. I'm only afraid that my face is just too naturally hideous to show.

She might just be busy with Uni work. Imagine that...a life outside these forums.

And then you'll be sorry! Yeeehaaaw! 1000 posts! I was at first going to pull a DL and see how long I could stay at 999. then I came to my senses

No I believe I was spot on and now you will wriggle uncomfortably. By your own words you said that the murder of abortion doctors and nurses was less wrong than the murder of another doctor or nurse. This is a value your so religion has led you to adopt. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> *sigh* I'll try to explain this once more. You in no way have me "spot on". I in no way meant it was less wrong to kill an abortion doctor. I meant it was a big step down in the number of attacks that might occur. If you look at my post, one of my main points was that the frequency of attacks on doctors was very small, almost a rarity. I then said that the type of doctors they target was only a small group, hence the amount of attacks would be much less frequent. In other words, the frequency of attacks on abortion doctors would be a lot less than if they attacked doctors in general. I in no way meant it was okay to kill abortion doctors, period (I even mentioned the 5th commandment to show Christianity doesn't condone these killings). I don't condone it, nor does the Christian right. It was a poor example and a poor wording on my part, and I apologize for the misunderstanding and anyone whom I may have offended. If you still don't believe me, then I guess I can't change your mind. You'll only have to take my word for it.

And what does this reveal about you ? So abortion doctors and nurses are less human than other doctors and nurses. And people wonder why christianity sickens people. I think you just proved my point better than I ever could have. While christians might not do it, they condone it , and if they dont condone it , they still see justification in it. As to see it as less wrong than the murder of someone in different profession. Yes I'm sickened, not suprised though. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I believe you misinterpreted what I meant. What I wrote referred to the scope of people targetted, not who was being targetted. In other words, Christian extremists don't target doctors and nurses in general, just ones whom they see as "heretical", like those mentioned. I only stated that because your post might be interpretted as saying that Christians target doctors and nurses in general, and I was only trying to clarify that. I in no way meant that it was okay to kill an abortion doctor or that their lives are worth any less, and I'm sorry for the misunderstanding. With that out of the way, I reiterate everything I said in my previous post.
