No, they got caught and sent to jail. They guns were found on them.

Oh, you didn't say that they actually got guns :)

I don't have any problems with it so please take the liberty to do as you wish with the roster

As I said, I'll join the EGB. You don't have to keep me on the roster because the EGB has it's own.

Also, remember that Fallen Angel teaser? It was submitted in 2004.
Recently, the part one has been submitted, it's still there under judgment!

Fallen Angel Ep. 1 (Pt1), by RobsH66 Type: Movie Rating: Ages 17+

Wow, those are MANY things to watch! I've already watched some of them, but this week I'll take some time to watch more.

Congrats to all :3

After some research, this is what I found:

1) Extracted from here:

"I had the same problem and found a solution. Hopefully this may help some of you if your situation resembles mine.
My problem was that my firefox browser opened to a blank page, and the navigation buttons were grayed out, and not working.
I tried many things, thinking that it may be related to my norton internet security, or with firefox itself. I even uninstalled and reinstalled firefox only to get the same problem. I also tried to restore my computer to an earlier time, and even this did not work.
Then I realized that I had added a new connection to the internet a few days ago, so that I would be able to use my cell phone as a modem for internet access---This was done only to see if it was possible, and it is. Anyway, it was the settings in this connection that interfered with my firefox browser.
So if you have a situation similar to mine, you may want to go back and check the modem settings you may have for internet access, and undo these changes, or delete the new dial-up connection if you may have created one before these problems arised. Hope this helps, good luck."

2) Extracted from here:

"My firefox is now working great. What I did was opened as follows. 1- I opened norton 360. 2-Click on manage firewall. 3-Click on the tab program rules. 4- Scroll to mozilla firefox and click allow (mine read custom). 5- Exit out of norton, and reboot computer for it will not work for you until you reboot. 6- Start firefox, and it should work."

Sorry if this isn't the solution, but meanwhile I think you can use an older version ;)

Great, another small achievement -.-

Ismael92: 666 Blams!

Ya know, guys, we should really conisder lowering our standards for blam acheivements considering they are sooo hard to get.

lol, that's true, I wished blam points where easier to get, like it was in the past.

There are several websites which contain free sounds for you to pick, for example:
http://www.findsounds.com/
That's a great source :)

There are a couple more, I don't remember them by memory, but you can find them if you research a bit ;)

Cheers.

That's a possibility.

In my case, I remember that when my video card overheated I got a blue screen (I have windows XP) and the only solution was to restart the computer.

Be sure you have a right ventilation, not only the computer itself, but the place where it is, that's important too. Be sure there's enough air :)

You can even open the computer and play to check if you have that problem.

Cheers :)

Also, yesterday I heard in the news that here people who is under 18 are now able to change their name. So, I have a question for you all...

Would you change your name?
(The real one, of course).

I never liked my only name. Ismael is just... weird. I always wished I had another name, even if I kept Ismael as a second name or something I always wanted to have a common name.

But now I don't think in the same way. I realized that the name isn't important at all, and actually, I've known many people who like my name. I've also met some great people who have names that are not common at all (including the girl I like the most).

So, no, I wouldn't change my name, that's not what matters, at least that's my opinion.

What's yours?

As all you regulars should know from the PMs you were given, the voting election will last for an extra day due. This is because I'm out most of the day on 1st November.

So, this is how everything works. I wasn't sure at all about how it was done, I suppose it's because I haven't read many posts made before I joined here.

I think the voting will be pretty difficult, there are several people who deserves to be voted.

For most of the day, I'll be out with my friends in Manchester and for the evening, my parents have organised a Bonfire Night party at our house just like the last 10 or so years. So no time for updating the Regulars List then, but I will find some time to deposit my EXP. I mean, I refuse to miss any deposits no matter what since I want to get ahead of all the users not too far ahead of me. If it weren't for that missed deposit back in February, I'd be tied with IvanTuroc right now. :P

I hope you have a great time!

Also, I'm having a lot of fun on my new laptop at the moment and I'll be making a video log about it whenever I have the opportunity to say everything. When it's done, I'll embed the video on my latest news post. :)

*waits patiently* :D

The link posted in the first post contains a great example of mice memory. Did you read the whole text?

wtf...

I wonder how do they do to choose the exact memory (and how do they delete it), but if it's true, it's really amazing.

If it can ever be done on humans, I find it useless in most cases. I mean it's OK if you have some kind of trauma that doesn't allow you to have a normal life. But using it forget things you don't like isn't the right solution. I completely agree with what the text says:

"All memories, including the painful emotional memories, have their purposes. We learn great lessons from those memories or experiences so we can avoid making the same kinds of mistakes again, and help us to adapt down the road"

And I did thought about "Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind" while reading the text.

Truly amazing, you must never get off the portal. Blam and protecting 'round the clock.

I designed an application which reloads the portal every 5 seconds.

j/k, I do that manually!

Thanks for the offer! But yes, I'll join the EGB, however that doesn't mean I'll stop posting here at all.

Maybe you flagged flashes wrongly. If you do this, you lose many whistle points. And remember to give as much information as you can when blowing your whistle on a flash. Also read carefully a review before flagging it, don't just flag everything that is posted on Rage's thread because sometimes things that are not abusive are posted there.

I'm pretty sure you flagged something wrong, otherwise you wouldn't have a garbage whistle.

Have luck getting that normal whistle back!

Sometimes when you search for a term that is less than four characters long, the following pop-up appears.

Wait, that was just a coincidence. The pop-up only appears sometimes.

Sorry for the triple post.

Wow, I've just realized the pop-up only appears when you search a term of 1 or 2 characters.

Cool, now we don't have to wait for it to load.

Still, it would be better if we were allowed to search words under 4 characters.

I've seen it before, it looks like a mistake that the staff isn't aware of, or just don't want to fix.

It's not an easter egg, easter eggs are hidden, like for example if you hold your mouse over the angry face in the forums.

Lol, I just noticed I have 666 blams.

Making my congrats list on this laptop feels so weird. Infact, the whole of NG does.

I know what you mean. It was very weird whne I had to use my gf's laptop for a while when my mainboard gave up it's ghost.

Yeah, when I wrote that I was on my sister's laptop. I use it if someone else is on the main computer and she's not using the laptop.

It's pretty much the opposite now.

Yup. Also, the score to pass judgment needs to be increased to about this:

100 votes: 1.5
150 votes: 2
200 votes: 2.5

That makes more sense, because most everything under 2.5 is crap.

Well, 2.5 is pretty high, I think the requirement should be 2.00. As I said, that would encourage people to put more effort into what they do, and the voting would be more balanced (0,1,2 are blam and 3,4,5 are save).

I'm bored and wondering...

Since I'm too young to work, I haven thought about that, but I think I wouldn't like to be a cop. Even if the risks here aren't to high, you're still in danger.

It's horrible to watch the news and see that some random person was killed unfairly. I just can't stand that, this work is not for me.

I even have a friend who wants to join... But he's not from the USA...

I remember reading a thread like this which had been made some time ago. After a little research I found this, although that's not the one I found before.

It's not a big problem because it's nothing permanent, but try logging out, clearing your cookies and stuff, and logging in again.

If the problem isn't solved after that, I think you should PM liljim because he takes care of the programming.

Cheers!
