I said it in MSN, and I'll say it again here. Happy birthday!

And if your parents don't get you anything, put a virus on their computer!

Images can be poll options? When was that implemented?

Number 2 as they are, but I think it could use a little more spacing. Something between 1 and 2.

Only four? D'oh!

Brambles - DKC2
Swamp - DKC2
Lava - DKC2 (Seeing a pattern?)
Schala's Theme - Chrono Trigger (I could've put in another DKC2 one, you know...)

Only four?!

Haven't yet. I had almost 3k on the old board, if memory serves. I don't think I'll be getting back there. Not this year.

Huh. Y'know, I'd like to say I expected a more meaningful thread, but that wouldn't be accurate. People change browser/OS/email service/other crap every day. What's next, someone posting a thread because they changed their underwear? =/

I only use IE because I have no choice in the matter. I'll try other browsers when I get a chance, if only because certain assholes choose to block certain browsers from visiting their site - not mentioning names, of course. I don't care how much a browser doesn't comply with standards, how many pointless features it lacks, or whatever other complaints you have about it; if you don't like it, don't bash it - just don't use it, and save the rest of us the frustration of listening to you/reading your posts.

Bah, I'm getting annoyed just thinking about the subject.

No, my comment wasn't about your post. Sorry if you interpreted it as such.

Jesper, my only complaint was about people that blatantly bash other browsers, often in topics completely unrelated to browsers at all (and yes, this does mean that much of my previous post was off-topic. ), and about people who intentionally block certain browsers (be they IE, Firefox, or whatever else) from visiting their site. However, due to HyperHacker's and Sonicandtails's posts, I realized something. If I don't mention names, someone I'm not talking about is going to think I'm talking about them. And if I do mention names, someone's gonna say I'm flaming. What a situation, huh?

Uh... EVERYONE can use the Masamune.

I never beat the original, but when I beat it on Dawn of Souls, my team was Knight/Red Wizard/White Wizard/Black Wizard. Red used the Nul spells, then Tempered and Hasted himself. White used Invisira/Protera (and their weaker versions) and kept everyone alive. Black used -agas in random battles, and Haste/Tampered Knight in boss battles. In the late game, Knight used one or two of the Nuls (I think he could use one of 'em) to speed up the process since he wasn't doing any real damage until he was Tempered a few times.

Then again, Dawn of Souls is much easier than the original. I'd like to get Origins, as I'm pretty sure it has the same difficulty as the original, with better sound. But, I'll probably just beat FF1 on my computer one of these days. =/

It's vaguely related, so I"ll just suggest this here, and say that the stated idea to see what you voted for is a good one.

What about the option to change your vote? Perhaps you pick one thing, but in light of new information you change your mind...

Hmm... let's see. That can't be Vanilla Secret 2, Home of the Huge-ass Flock of Koopa Paratroopas... I don't think Yoshi's Island 1 had any GREEN paratroopas... nor did Donut Plains 1. Going by that palette, it can't be Vanilla Dome or Valley of Bowser... Chocolate Island 1?

Judging from the background to Green Paratroopa in SMW2, I'm gonna guess 2-1: Meet Koopa and Parakoopa.

Posted on 04-13-05 10:55 PM, in M-rating Might be Set to 18+ Link
I've always thought that if parents paid more attention, there'd be no need to have these ratings, but that's a rant for another day.

It makes sense to raise it (or lower it) a year, though. I can't think of anything else that you have to be seventeen for. A few things, like driver's licenses (dammit, how the HELL do you spell that?) require you to be 16 in most states, and a few other things require you to be 18... but not seventeen.

Of course, it doesn't affect me anyway. I've been playing Doom since I was... 12, I think. My mom clearly doesn't care what I play, since I know the difference between reality and videogames.


... and don't ask why I spelled seventeen out while writing 16 and 18 as numbers.

Correcting Mistake: Whoops, my comment was about POST layouts. Maybe I need my eyes checked.

Windwaker: Shut the fuck up already. I'm sick and god damn tired of you trying to turn everything into an "omg ie sux get firefox" discussion.

Site: The only difference I saw in that screenshot was in the link colors. Just looked at the site, and I'm gonna give it a 6/10. There's just something that's... not quite right there. Can't put my finger on it, but I think it has to do with the title image.

Posted on 04-14-05 11:40 PM, in Isnt there a code tag? Link
Perhaps because most layouts use proportional fonts, and therefore using a fixed-width font clearly shows that they're referring to code?

Just a guess.

IIRC, there was a TXT file with one version of FFHackster that explained how to do it. Problem is, that requires use of a hex editor - something many people, myself included, hate using.

Don't think that a patch for it exists, though.

Hey, I mean precisely what I said.

Looking a bit closely, at some very minor details, I see what you meant. But seriously, that's not the problem I'm having. I just don't like the layout.

Doubt it, Gavin. I saw the site layout in the other browser in the screenshot that he posted, and I didn't like it any more there than in IE.

I'll be honest, I don't really see any flaws in how the forum is run now. Yes, there are people who break the rules, but I doubt changing anything will fix that, honestly.

Though, a blacklist/forum ban does sound like it would be effective. The only problem I could see is that if someone with unpopular views gets forum banned/blacklisted, they'll probably say their views are being oppressed or somesuch. Ah well, can't blame yourself for the stupidity of others.
