"How are you gentlemen?"

I'm going to assume that this "spammer" is nothing like Baley, but one of those guys that posts junk mail to millions of people per day.

All your base are belong to us "What you say?"

I believe the ratings primarily are there to try to help parents make informed decisions.

Hahahah

As said, AO is 18+. A huge change from 17+ Because at 17.5, they just can't handle GTA:SA...but at 18, no problemo.

Many jobs involve relocations, NOT just professoinal sports. And I am sure that when a player signs with a team, it's all about the team loyalty, not the huge money involved in the contract. The reason why so many trades occur, is because they team that that player is playing for is not sure they're going to be able to afford that player when they become a free agent at the end of the season. If there was any indication of player loyalty, they wouldn't have this concern. The Oiler paid Doug Weight more than any other player in franchise history, but it still didn't stop him from signing with St. Louis at the end of the year. Weight was loved and adored by fans and the city. There was many fan gatherings asking Weight to remain with the team, and the Oilers didn't try trading him away at the deadline, as is common with free agents. When it became clear that the Oilers could not make a deal with Weight, we were forced to trade him to St. Louis, otherwise risk losing him and getting nothing at all in return. And then you have people like Curtis Joseph that cries whenever he leaves a team. Didn't stop him from disappearing to Toronto or jumping ship to Detroit. In both cases the water works came out. Poor guy, like he was somehow forced to go to those different teams There's no loyalty in professional sports, on either side. You'll have the rare exception, but for the most part everyone is just interested in getting the most that they can for themselves.

Yashin held out twice. If Game Developers signed contracts that allowed for the trading of designers, then the designers would accept it. You don't "fire" a player, you place him on waivers. Unless by your wacky demonstrationg getting fired means you still get paid. Only with the current collective bargaining agreement can teams now "fire" a player, which involves buying them out of their contract which arguably is much better for the player, as they now aren't restricted by the contract they originally had.

Well, it's that "inverse" thing that had me going. Because I would say Alien, being the first, is #1. And so on and so on. In any case, you should still remember Aliens! An excellent action flick with good suspensive/creepy scenes to boot! Plus I'm a Michael Biehn fanboi.....I just like the style of characters he plays, and have been a fan ever since I saw The Terminator.

I figured this was some sort of attempt for Jack Thompson to make KOTOR 2 illegal.

Hmmm, I think you just let go of the button and click again (on the PC anyways). To be honest I can't really remember. It's all instinct now!

Ye resurrecter of dead threads!

Liars all of you. You SO understood what he was saying.

I went to a pistol range for shytes and giggles one day, and want to know what me l33t training in the murder simulators did for me? It let me jam a Glock 9mm on my very first shot. Never had that happen to me in CS.

I figured this was some bizarro quintuple post...until I realized that they all had different times

I was wondering that too. I'm surprised he didn't just put me on his ignore list. I'm sure he gets soooo many emails, he probably wouldn't even recognize me. I'll make sure to send him something at least every once in a while. I'm just being [very] optimistic, but it would be kind of cool to get a reply back from one of those places I sent an email to :D

Players understand that trades are part of the league. And you can't fire someone in the NHL. The contracts are guaranteed so if they let that player go, they still had to pay that player unless a different team picked up the contract. It still doesn't change the fact that it's a bonehead idea to sign someone to a long term contract that has a history of holding out and not honouring the contract.

Errr...are you saying you liked Resurrection better than Alien or Aliens???

Adam Sandler movies are much better than they used to be. Much less of the crude humour.

I think I'm flattered. Bring it on I say! I've played so many murder simulators over the course of my life, no one stands a chance. In fact, in one of the murder simulators I took on 100:1 odds and still came out breathing. It's hopeless! :D

You spelled it wrong. Schumacher! I'm not worried, since I already posted my name in a different thread when someone asked where my forum name came from I think it was And I did also send it to my local newspapers, the Edmonton Sun and the Edmonton Journal (oh noes, you know my city!!)

I sent it to TV stations as well. Only two video game sites listed.

Here's basically the email that I have sent out to Gamespy, IGN, ABC, CBS, NBC, and Fox, as well as Canada's Global, CBC, and CTV.

Consider it done.

LOL. I tried continuing my civil conversation with Jacko, and he immediately responded with a copy and paste of that same spiel. So I said: "So much for civil conversation then. Have a nice day." To which he immediately replied (like seconds later) with the exact same copy and paste message. Although he has the subject heading "not interested. get lost, or else" How should I respond? :D :D :D
