And gentlemen in England now abed shall think themselves accursed they did not post, and hold their manhoods cheap whiles any speaks that posted with us upon Thursday.
  3. That man won't quit as long as he can still write a post. None of my forummates will. Me? I've got a different problem. I feel like I post in a world made of... cardboard, always taking constant care not to troll something, to troll someone. Never allowing myself to lose control even for a moment, or someone could get butthurt. But you can take it, can't you, big man? What we have here is a rare opportunity for me to cut loose and show you just how loquacious I really am.
  4. You want memes? YOU CAN'T HANDLE THE MEMES!!!
  5. There are many others like it, but this one is mine. My thread is my best friend. It is my life. I must master my thread as I must master my life. Without me, my thread is useless, without my thread, I am useless. I must write my thread true. I must write more clearly than my enemy who is trying to troll me. I must troll him before he trolls me. I will. Before God I swear this creed: My thread and myself are the defenders of my forums, we are the masters of our enemy, we are the saviors of my life. So be it, until there is no enemy, but peace. Amen

    New GR video! :D

    Is there somewhere this video can be viewed other than Sell-your-information-to-Russian-identity-thieves-(Face)book?
  7. For you Firefox users who (like me) hate having to switch to IE for sites that require it, I highly recommend a Firefox addon called Coral IE Tab. What this does is renders a page with the IE rendering engine...in Firefox. It puts a little icon in the browser status bar and clickong it will switch the rendering engine on the fly. Here's the link:

    https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/10909

    I also recommend:

    AdBlock Plus (blocks all ads on websites) - https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/1865

    NoScript (blocks all scripts on websites, unless you specifically allow them) - https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/722
  8. I currently use ClamWIN and have been pretty happy with it.

    I also use a program called WinPatrol. What WinPatrol does is monitor all of the start-up locations in your PC (e.g., Startup folder, Run key in registry, services, etc.) and notifies you when something tries to register itself to start automatically with Windows. You can choose to allow the program/service to start with Windows, or deny it. This functionality is included in the free version, but I highly recommend the for-pay version that has many more very useful features, such as Killbox, HiJack This log generation, showing hidden files and many others. The best part is that the program costs only $30 for every PC you own. That's not $30 per PC, but $30 total to install it on every PC you own.
  9. I play CoX. I was "Sleestack with crossbow, #2" in Episode 16 of Land of the Lost. I'm sure you all remember me, right?

  11. I'm not evil, it's just that everybody is stupid and doesn't realize that my way is the only right way. If I have to use violence to adjust their perspective, well that's their fault not mine.

    So, I'd say a 4 leaning toward 11.

  13. Your avatar blunts the message a bit. Maybe you should use a cat with laser-beam eyes or something.
  14. People, please stop responding. The OP is nothing more than a troll post.

    The whole "lemmings jumping off a cliff" was staged to create "drama" in a Disney nature film.
  17. Yes, they come with a free month of playtime. BUT, I believe you can only apply ONE of these codes to your account, so your idea won't work out.
  18. Whatever they do for the 6th anniversary, I certainly hope they do it on a weekday during regular working hours. Then I will get to miss it again like last year's 5th anniversary events, because I'll be at work, like last year. Nothing better than poorly-timed events that a whole slew of people can't attend.

Therefore, it is impossible for me to have mispelled anything. Obviously, the problem is that you live in one of those "heathen" countries, who insist on mispelling things like adding extra "U"'s and other vowels to everything. Unless of course your a fellow Yankie Doodle, at which point I pay $15 dollars a month, which means I'm right anyways.

    So I win.

    As a more-equally-patriotic American and former Texas UIL Spelling Champion, whose blood is indeed red (or at least pinkish, dependent upon alcohol content), who's Great^7-Grandfather signed the Declaration of Independence, and who spends his affection upon his lovely Comanche wife (and not just because she'd scalp me otherwise!), it is far less possible for me to misspell words from this or other countries, heathen or no. If I should choose to utilize the occasional extra 'u' it is only due to my extreme pretentiousness, which also rivals your own.

    And besides, there is no 'u' in 'didgeridoo'. The aboriginals used them all for boomerangs.

    As a lifelong resident of states south of the Mason-Dixon line, I have never been a Yankee, nor attended one of their 'games' as the late great George Carlin would define it. Nor do I 'doodle' - we architects call it 'sketching', especially when designing an abbatoir. And finally, while I pay the same $15 a month as you, I enjoy a much lower cost of living here in America's Heartland. That makes *my* $15 worth more than your $15.

    Nyah.

    SLAP FIGHT!!!

    Aaaaaannnndddd.....GO!!

  25. Well, they would have to make new small versions of all character assets (character models, costumes pieces, weapons, etc.), "small" versions of all powers, etc. etc.

    In other words, a whole boatload of work for not that much payoff, really.
