The general conversation about anything
This topic can be used to let off your rants on anything you want (as long as it's within the forum rules and legal). The topic can change whenever, but please don't just reply "LOL" to someone's post and not contribute to the conversation.
I'll start. So, how has your week been so far? Mine's been decent. I had to do some annoying homework yesterday (gotta love essay-writing) and kept getting distracting by articles on GamesRadar. I also had lots of luck with Pokémon cards (topic on Trading Card Game board). |
Re: The general conversation about anything
I've had a very nice week so far. I'm not exactly looking forward to the Thanksgiving Break (since I'll be traveling to the middle of nowhere), but some good is bound to come of it.
|
Re: The general conversation about anything
Hah! The closest thing we get to a 'Thanksgiving Break' is a weekend. A normal one. Two days.
And I'm a bloody idiot, I tried to dual-boot by Vista laptop with XP and ended up breaking it. So what've you been up to lately? |
Re: The general conversation about anything
Crap I've been meaning to make one of these for a while.
There is nothing interesting going on with me the relative I'm visiting for Thanksgiving is only a couple towns over so I'm staying here and trying to get my dad to let me take tomorrow off. |
Re: The general conversation about anything
Essays? Blech...
My week has been pretty good so far... I only have a half day tomorrow, and I don't know what I'm gonna do with myself. I did have two tests today (Chem and Gov't). I thought they were pretty easy. Quiz in Pre-Calc tomorrow... (ugh) I am looking forward to Thursday and Friday. How can I not look forward to Friday, with the tournament and all. :lol: |
Re: The general conversation about anything

Re: The general conversation about anything
We were split up into two teams and first team to get all their players to the opposite side of the gym without being poked/smacked/touched by someone on the other team they win and alot of people were screaming because someone on the other team was chasing them and all of the screaming sounded like Yoshi.
(They were probably yelling "Oh sh**") |
Re: The general conversation about anything
:shock: Sounds violent
Does anyone have tomorrow off ? |
Re: The general conversation about anything
I got friday off.
|
Re: The general conversation about anything
I have the whole week off :D , but I'm in Ohio :( .
|
Re: The general conversation about anything
I have the rest of the week off.
|
Re: The general conversation about anything
Cat and I are off tomorrow (Wednesday), and we don't have to go back until next Tuesday.

Re: The general conversation about anything
I've got this for my weekend: tourney, turkey, and playing Rumble.
|
Re: The general conversation about anything
Hah! 6 day weekends? 5 day weekends? That's pathetic. ALL HAIL MY 2 DAY WEEKEND!
...Wait... that's just like every other weekend. |
Re: The general conversation about anything
This forum has too many rules.
|
Re: The general conversation about anything
Meh.
So, guys, when do you start your winter breaks, if any? Mine starts in two weeks. We're gonna pick up a Christmas tree over the weekend. A real one, too, not those plastic stupid fake ones. |
Re: The general conversation about anything
Same here.
The more I see "This is not allowed", "You can not do that", or "This is too big" on these forums, the more pointless this supposed mergence looks. Seriously, loosen up on the limitations. |
Re: The general conversation about anything
Honestly I have no problem following the rules...because I haven't even gone and taken a look at them =p but I haven't broken any so far so im guessing the rules can be followed just by being polite and using common sense like not to spam or having mile long signatures.
As for christmas...were still using a crappy plastic set up tree. =p We had it for like 8 years now. X_x The real problem for me is I have no clue what I want for Christmas and its almost here. .-. |
Re: The general conversation about anything
Jared, trust me, you're not the only one complaining about the forum rules. There was an incident a few months back which I'm not going to discuss, but all I'll say is it was about the forum's rules.
If you've spent as much time we have here, with all the nubby goingons and spats, you'd know why kinda pointless rules are established. So, I went Christmas shopping today, and I couldn't find a copy of Phantasy Star 0 for me. Bull. |
Re: The general conversation about anything
The rules are there because of crazy stuff and idiots. In fact, because I'm bored, I'll break them down.
1-21 are all obvious rules, the standard set that most forums have. Don't bother worrying about them to much, as PokéZam appears to have had nearly all of them in unwritten form. You probably were just expected to use common knowledge for those. 22 was because of a joke between me and the other mods/admins many months back. We kept spamming warnings to each other. 23 is obvious, but some people just don't get the point of their posts "magically disappearing" after they post them three times. 24 is because of a troll, again obvious. 25 is because of users who want their post count to be 100 in a day, so they bump old topics. Some topics, like ones that ask for user opinion (i.e. favorite Pokémon) are fine to bump, but "How do I fix this error" topics that were solved don't need bumping. 26 iz cuz i haet reading txt liek tihs nd it maks u look stoopid lol 27 is because I hate tall signatures (so I used PokéCommunity's idea of the sig block). They detract from the topic and just waste space. 28 is because I hate flamewars. Generational debates are the absolute stupidest Pokémon discussion I've seen on the Internet because of heavy nostalgia and bad logic. |
Re: The general conversation about anything
Maybe you could try condensing them? Like, if 2 rules touch on similar topics you could just ammend the first one insted.
and 23 is simple: If you delete it and they repost it, punish them with an infraction (Btw it's cool that bb3 has infractions. bb2 doesn't...) ^This makes me feel like one of the facepunch moderators. QUICK, NIGHTWING, BEAT THESE DEMONS OUT OF ME!!! 26: I wholeheartedly agree with that rule... 27: What's pokecommunity? Are they commies? 28: Sometimes flame wars are good, though. As long as they have at least 2000 brain cells involved... However, my last comment was because of me trying to get my universal avatar on here. The avatar was a URL-based one, but it still was above the limits that were set. If loading times are what you're worried about there, don't. Web browsers are automatically set to have images as low priority in loading, and should not affect the rest of the site. If you're worried about longcat, then that's a different story <.< I also tried to put an image in my signature, but was cut out for being over 200 pixels. 200 is the length of cricket. That is way too small for anything. ESPECIALLY A STAR SHIP. Do you know what else I hate? I type in this box and it looks like a typed a lot, but then the post makes it look like barely anything. Maekz meh cry :'( But it didn't happen this time, though. Yay :3 ANYWAYS, let's shift the conversation to something more pleasant. Such as: I turned off spellcheck in Firefox, does that make me cool? |
Re: The general conversation about anything
So I'm visiting my ex in ten days.

Re: The general conversation about anything
Wow, haven't seen Red Globe online anywhere for a week and a few days.
And Jared, where is your butt buddy, SK at? Shouldn't he be joining this site? |

Re: The general conversation about anything
You mean they aren't already?
HOWEVER, if they do, then we can easily post whatever we want that isn't against JP law, but illegal in <inert home country here> since the data will be in Japan. Kinda hard to explain, but it's a simple legal concept. |
Re: The general conversation about anything
I understand what you mean. The terms of use on websites always say something like "as long as it isn't in violation of the laws in <server's location>".

Re: The general conversation about anything
I was rained in on while riding my bike home. I'm soaked and cold.
Sunny California. Whoever thought of that deserves a slap across the face. -posted on the DSi Browser- Also, I found a handwriting mode on the DSi keyboard. It has a lot of WTF moments. |

Re: The general conversation about anything
I still question their claim that what they are doing is actually 'true' teleportation, since from what I'm aware, they just use quantum entanglement to replicate the attributes of the original atoms in the target location, instead of 'moving' them. Call me picky about my theoretical future technologies :P

Re: The general conversation about anything
Ours was meant to start on the 19th, but the school boiler broke so we started holidaying on the 17th ^_^

Re: The general conversation about anything
Oh lucky!

Re: The general conversation about anything
Yes we were! We would've been snowed-in on the 18th anyway, but an extra day off was awesome!

Can someone delete that fat guy pic now? It's giving me nightmares.
|
|
*Covers himself up in a blanket and starts barfing*
Seriously though, that man looked... I can't describe my horrible feelings :0 |
Wow! That man is really scary. I wish I can delete it, but I am not supposed to do so. :(
|
Do it anyway, I'm sure cat wants to delete it too.
|
Sorry Jared. He didn't break any rule. Just navigate looking at it.

Sony Vegas is much better than Windows Movie Maker when it comes to quality. Now, if it didn't take two freaking hours to process and upload, I might use it daily.
|
iMovie tops everything... XD
|
I never understood why higher-end renderings take longer to upload if YouTube just butchers the quality anyway.
|
It takes time to turn good stuff into crap. Just look at the digestive process. 10 hours, there.
I've been reading some scary stories, with pictures as visual aids. My question: Who in god's name makes these pictures? These are more messed up than the manson murders. |
I got a Nvidia GTS 250 from Newegg using UPS as a delivery.
This happened: http://img188.imageshack.us/img188/1235/dscn0016r.jpg What should I do? Just fix it? Return it for a new one? |
Are you sure that's not how it's meant to be? If I were you I'd send it back. Unless it would take weeks, then I'd either take it down to my local PC repair store or attempt to fix it myself.
|
I've done stuff with graphics cards before, and that is definitely bad.
They said the replacement will take under 30 days, so I'll see if I can get it fixed/fix it. |
Today, in school I won 15$. It was from some draw.
|
Well, it's official. Windows Movie Maker is back to its crash happy, unreliable old self. Grumble Grumble.
*puts a new Let's Play episode in Sony Vegas* |
Don't worry, YouTube will still find a way to ruin it. And it will be a spectacular one.
|
I'm still confused about one rule. What is meant by "Violate Ethical Standards"?
|
Can someone please help me, I used Microsoft Movie Maker to process my video and it keeps coming out in the wrong color.
|
How's everyone doing?
|
Well I'm doing fi- OH GOD THAT'S A TALL SIGNATURE :O
|
Question: How can we use the fix tag for "Decorative purposes"? I've tested with it, and all it does is make that ugly(My apologies to the person who designed it) box, and the text can't be changed. You'd have to be a very boring person to believe it to be decorative.
