I think he's gone and riced out the web site. Got some new rims, a giant spoiler and blue headlights.

Looks gayish to me. Sory, had to say it.
I hate how the site dosen"t have any priorities. All they do is change the look, but newer the features or layout. Examples: you still can't include smilies in your text, and the html you can use is still limited to 5.
And when the hell is text search going to be back up? Its been at least 4 months!

Blargh. Woe be the day that you're able to include smilies in your posts. It'll be the downfall, the end of an era.
Additionally, what more html do you want? The ability to post pictures anywhere would def. be nice, buuut... Ok, yeah, include that. But what else?
My main grief is with the sig restrictions. 400x60 is too damn narrow / small.
The one thing force produces is resistance.

Oh, bitching time! I think the site should give us free beer and suck our dicks!
Seriously though, I think they limit the html use for practical reasons, and I like the fact you can't put smiley's in your text. It makes the threads look more peaceful.

This guy nailed it.

Aye. I for one hate smilies they cause a great deal of pain and grief. For example, when I type ;) it looks cool. But when I type it in MSN it shows up as an animated smiley winking, and it makes me look gay. Anywayz, smiles promote spam.
omg i p0sted in teh regalers thraed adn im not a regaler! eek!!

Believe me, you don't want anymore html options than what you have now. If we do get them, it will start looking like an AOL chatroom in here.
Same goes for sig pics.

I want to know when the members search will come back up.

Amen to that. I've never cared for graphical emoticons. DEATH TO THE SMILEY FANBOYS!

I'd actually prefer an option to submit text as code, reading code in Programming and Flash is a headache, currently. Although that isn't so much an html issue, since the <code> tag only slaps a silly font like monaco onto text.
The ability to post pictures anywhere would def. be nice, buuut... Ok, yeah, include that. But what else?
Agreed. But then you'd have problems with linking images from other sites, hotlinking, etc. A better feature would be pictures with a larger canvas size. 400x300=suck.
My main grief is with the sig restrictions. 400x60 is too damn narrow / small.
Nah. It's just a pinch smaller than the average banner ad... well, not on this site.
All in all, I especially like the stats under the level icon. SUUUUEEEEEET.

Oh yeah and I got something to say to fatso... I mean The_Enforcer; You wanted me to got out and buy 200$ worth of right wing biased books, well I got a cheaper challenge for you. Get off your lazy ass and walk down to your local theatre and check out Farenheit 9/11. Moore didn't actually say anything negative once.

It seems to take longer to load.
Hey, sure. I'm looking for a pistol, preferably not a revolver. Mainly for target practise, perhaps "self-defense". I don't believe I'd try carrying it concealed. Something cheap, with cheap ammunition (but reliable, accurate. Caliber isn't a big consideration). After looking through a few threads on stormfront, I think a budget of, say $300, would buy something along these lines, right? I think the age for pistol in NY is 21, so I'm leaving a good bit of time for research.
I can reccomend several wonderful pistols but anything worth shooting is going to be $300-$500 at least. I hate Glocks BTW. 9mm's are great but have no stopping power. .45's are good but the ammo is more as is recoil. Email me with exactly what you want and have heard and I will do my best.
But get this, I didn't tell the rest of the story. After my grandfather found out that my father was shooting through junk cars and crap, he sold all of his guns. This was probably, 35 years ago. I'm so sad =P
He had some other good WW2 stuff too.. But it's all gone now, as far as I know.
My Great-Grandpa had ALOT of WW II hardware, guns from every era and some heavy duty hardware. Alot of money. A whole garage full of guns. His second wife sold them all for about 1/20 of what they were worth.

Why do you assume:
1)He meant for you to actually buy all of them?
2)He hasn't seen ºf/911?
Is it because he is a confessed right-winger? If so, that's shallow, man.
So, what part of moore's latest did you enjoy most?

Fewels, get a baby Berreta .22. Yeah, the bullets aren't as big, but you can pump three rounds into them before they even know they're hit. Plus, they're great for fast target shooting.

Well, he expected me to actually read all of them, wich is already pretty far fetched,

I remember seeing an article, maybe on the net, maybe in the paper, saying that the crowd F9/11 attracted was made up almost intirely of liberals and democrats, people who already don't care much about Bush. Even so, its an educated guess.
So, what part of moore's latest did you enjoy most?
Definitely the views of the soldiers. To quote one; "I don't understand why they hate us so much, wer'e here to liberate them". That says alot.

bro, you're JUST going to see it (as of this post)? I saw it on the first day. Was it held back in release in your area for a long time, are you being lazy, or both?

Won't do much good. If he's like me nothing more than a full size handgun will do. Compacts are less accurate and are annoying to holster and clean. Also, I am not a big fan of a .22 for self defense purposes. A .45 is called a "manstopper" for a reason. :) I just feel sorry for that one guy who shot himself in the head like 7 times with a .22 point blank...

Well the local theatre dosen't have it, so I had to go the big cineplex the next town over, but thats a 20 minute drive and taking the bus there is harder than hell. So I just did it the lazy way and waited till my parents decide to check it out. Besides, it was raining tonight, thats what I keep my movie watching hours to.

You know you're a dork if you leave Wal-Mart with only a video game and a pack of condoms.
Anyway, I just got Metroid Prime this morning and I'm already half done with it. So much easier than when I played at college. I attribute it to practice with the controls. It's a good game, storyline, upgrades, challenge, graphics, etc. The only problem is that the lock on feature doesn't always work too well. Now I'll have to buy the sequel.
