    I saw an ant carrying a dead woodlouse earlier, with no trouble. They must have great strength.

    Ants are pretty much unequivocally amazing. Like this species that builds boats (although they could do to learn about outboard motors), and these ones that have adapted to tidal life in a mangrove swamp. Fascinating little things.

    It's ok, we all know the truth, we're just blind to it. How often do we say aliens want nothing to do with us? It's because they are more aware of source, can see more meanings, intents for things, can see a larger purpose for theirselves and don't get hung up on their egos and nasty things humanity does as a less aware species.

    They are more aware than we are, more creative, more insightful, make deeper observations, make wiser choices. They travel to other planets, they fear and avoid us, because we are less aware, and are grouped with wild animals roaming our planet as near equals to one another and our selves as a fabrication of symbolism and metaphor, which we express beautifully but not as consciously as a superior alien race.

    I used to have a few string theory concepts...but as above, it just became a lot to think about and I try to just live life, pay the bills and have fun. So we don't know how or why everything works? Maybe one day we will...theories will still be theories no matter how much we think about them. I learned to just let it go. Life throws enough at me to think about. Basically my point is that I wasn't intending to make fun of you nor do I disagree or am I overly religious because of my silence on the matter....I just like to let life be life.

    I would if life would let me. I can't get a girl friend, and I can't make friends. I've had the desire and tried, just never could do it. I found this and have been at it for years. I suck at life, socializing.

    Thank you Johro, I appreciate the advice though.

    Doodo, since you were talking earlier about many of your posts and threads having moderator action taken against them, I'm going to be blunt about this. Posts like these are a large part of the reason we have a problem with you. There's pointless posts, and then there's noise, and this is the latter.

    This thread doesn't really have any rules, as I remember it. At the least it's been debated over and over again. Aside from dirty images, and things of that nature. But I can agree that posts like that may seem pointless. I apolgize.
  • edited June 2011
    Even if the thread doesn't necessarily have rules, the forums do, and posting orgasm onomatopoeia isn't okay here no matter what thread you do it in.

    If no one I know and no one I've met here is both video game and sports fans... why do sports games sell so well? ...It seems there must be non-video game fans or non-sports fans that enter this pool. o.O
  • edited June 2011
    I didnt intentionally post any orgasms, you saw that not me, nor had I intended to post any in a indirect sense. I can't help if what I type is interpreted in a foul way.

    The rules are constant, eh? I'd like to see Ribs post a picture of potateos in a monkey island thread about the music of the games...

    I respect that your admins but don't tell me lies, you can make the rules but don't be telling people obscene lies.

    And there are far more examples in this thread, probably even on page one...

    Aaaah... Nothing quite like staying up till 3 am watching Family Guy.

    I just got season 10 on dvd you see, (though due to a removal of a few episodes in a previous release, all our season DVDs released in the UK are actually mix of two seasons. So we are always behind oddly enough....), and I actually think so far, its one of the funniest seasons of the show.
    Sure its not as intelligent as it used to be, but its still excellent entertainment.
    £20 well spent.
    (Plus I have every other Family Guy DVD so I'll keep on buying it till the show ends)

    EDIT: Turns out the releases are much more messed up than I thought.
    What is season 10 dvd here, is actually 12 episodes of season 8 and 3 episodes of season 9.
    I am really confused right now...

    No, we just love this forum and want to see it remain an enjoyable place to talk to people. And if that means fighting what seems to be an endless losing battle against whiners, trolls, and spambots, then so be it.
  • edited June 2011
    And even though sometimes we may be grumpy about it, I think I can say that we all do appreciate what the moderators do. And when we're grumpy about a decision, we're really grumpy at the grey lettering, not the person behind it. I just thought I'd just say that since it sorta needs to be said.
  • edited June 2011
    It's true. I hate the color grey.
  • edited June 2011
    Finally! Someone who agrees with me and openly admits it. So it's not the mods, it's the color grey. It implies wishywashiness about decision making.

    From now on, the moderator titles should be changed to either black or white. Just to make things clear.
  • edited June 2011
    I don't like that this thread is in the Games section. Sometimes I have a legitimate topic to talk about but am not sure if it warrants its own thread, yet I get no post count for talking about it in here.

    Woah, there were a fair few pages to get through tonight...
    No!No!No!
    I did not mean to cause offense.
    Just rather suprised really, that the age range is so varied these days.

    I mean, most of the people here are older than me, (out of the regulars, I think Fawful is a few months younger, only slightly younger than my best friend in real life in fact).

    And I thought I was quite old for a forum fequenter.

    I'm just being a bit silly really.

    *Scratches her head* So does this mean 28 is old? Cos if it is, I'd better go find my walking stick...

    Brutal Legend was a let down for me, just as I was starting to enjoy the game and accept it as a humourous, simple action title; the game throws a curve ball and introduces obligatory, badly executed strategy sections. I stopped playing after that but it's still a game that's worth giving a go, just for that classic Tim Schafer style of story, characters, dialogue and visual creativity.

    Mirror's Edge is an underrated game. Whilst it's far from perfect, it's portrayal of parkour and the feeling of being at one with the character is tangible.

    After Burner Climax is an amazing game; the aggressive airborne cousin of Outrun 2. Once you learn the intricacies of the gameplay, it becomes a highly addictive score attack game. A genuinely exhilarating game.

    If you've never played Rez before then you're in for a treat. Much like Flower (PS3), it's more of an experience than a game (although there is some great Panzer Dragoon style gameplay). The ideal post pub experience.

    Sonic: Episode 1 is the best title I've played in the series since Sonic CD (or maybe Sonic Rush), it's more or less a nice return to the basics. However, it is let down by some terrible physics that are some how much worse than the physics found in the original Sonic! Also, some of the design choices found in later levels are dubious, often being overly complex thus leading to frustrating gameplay. All in all though, it certainly gave me a nice feeling of nostalgia.

    I know which game you should play last and that's Final Fantasy XIII, that game makes me want to vomit due to it's repulsive and offensive levels of crapness. It's seriously awful and an absolute disgrace when held up against the likes of VI and VII.

    I'm curious as to what "Castlevania: Symphony of the Nite" is?! A special dyslexic version of the PSOne classic perhaps? :p

    XD
    Yeah I 100% achievemented After Burner Climax, very good game.
    And Mirror's Edge is indeed very underrated.
    I decided to settle for Sonic and Sega Allstar racing in the end.
    Now thats very underrated! :D

    I mean, I've played most of these games, but I never get round to sitting down and aiming to complete them.
    You would think someone with that many games would have a gamerscore of more than 12337, wouldn't you? XD
    (My best friend who plays games obsessively and has a similar amount has a gamerscore of 51590! Now thats obbsesive! XD)

    EDIT: oh and Rez is a pretty good game. A lovely visual treat, but the two best rail shooters are still Panzer Dragoon Orta on the xbox (which I have, and I was playing it on the 360, but the 360 compatibility has a progress breaking bug which is depressing), and Star Fox 64.
    (Which I might play on my arcade machine, but the emulator makes the game much darker than its supposed to be which makes it much harder. I need to look into that...)

    EDIT 2: I have to disagree with you on Sonic 4 episode 1, I don't really like it at all.
    As you said the physics are terrible, and the level design has some good parts, but overall its underwhelming.
    Then again, my favourite 2D Sonic is still Sonic 2, so I'm kind of an oddball.
