Yes, we like being a little rough
Uh, make that tough -
I'm sure he's gonna start though. Isn't he supposed to be breaking some sort of record in money spent campaigning this year?

Heh, something like that
Basically, mature/wellr-respected/active/etc people are chosen to mod forums they are active in. So if there arises a need for a new guardian in a forum, someone who is active in that forum will be chosen. Sometimes you might be able to apply for a position...
So in short; be mature, active and such

For me it's that this team doesn't only listen to the fans, it is (!) the fans. Really, how often do you see people just start a project this big for no other reason than that they want to (and some other minor stuff like experience, but disregard that now
)? Only fans do that, and that shows dedication. Yeah, that sums it up

It's already there valahiru

Unfortunately no
I don't have the receipt any longer, nor do I even remember where I bought it... -
welcome
I'm sure there's someone with that name over at aokh, though that might not be you? or maybe it is
-
for aoc it was through aokh (uh, game specific forum), and for aom it was through eso. Other than that, I haven't played any game that's been patched...
Bonus question: nope. Fansites are quick enough to post those updates, and I prefer visiting those to some kind of patchcentral. It could work in an environment like mfo or heavengames though.

Bah, I was hoping you would say the DVD player wasn't region-free and that it would be easy to fix
Ah well, I'll let my friend test it as well and see if it works for him... -
Right, I've got braveheart here on this little disc called a DVD. I was hoping to watch it on the DVD player I've got at home (which is region-free or whatever it's called. It's supposed to work with DVDs from all regions). Problem is, after trying to read the disc for a few secs, I get an error message "disc error". So, I try it in the DVD player I've got in the comp, using powerDVD, where I get this ridicolously long error message containing tons of numbers and stuff... Of note is that the DVD player in the comp isn't region-free.
So I'm wondering a few things, like:
is it possible that the DVD is faulty in some way? How would I know?
is the DVD player (non-comp) region-free? How would I find out?
Why is this happening to me?
I haven't tried running the DVD anywhere else, though a friend of mine claims he could run it on his DVD player, though that was a while ago (um, can a DVD fail after a while?). I've got no idea if that player is region-free...
Braveheart, region1
Moi, Sweden (region3?)
Any help is as always appreciated

There's a new 8-way opteron system being produced in russia now too. That ought to be pretty fast methinks

Taco bar (there's no taco bell here, I assume it's something like that though...) wins hands down. Runner up would be Mcdonalds, only due to their pies
So, um, considering I'm not sure if taco bar=taco bell, I'm voting for Mcdonalds...
-
It's happened, but we generally don't have problems with the comps we have... Which is a good thing I guess. I get way more questions from peeps I've met online. Anything from hardware to spyware and viruses. The bad thing is I usually don't have the answers

I've only had intel systems, but after all the things I've read about AMD here and at tech sites, I voted for AMD

Wine is good, I'll take your spot then CO

AoC
I wasn't into gaming when aoe and ror were all the hype, so for me it's easy to choose

I'm going for the egg, as that fits with evolution.
I'm assuming you picked the chicken jordan, so let me ask you, is there any reason to believe that if God created chickens, he created them in the form of eggs?

It forwards itself to everyone in the inbox when it's infected a comp right? Cause our Parents association was infected by some virus or other and was sending out emails to every student in the entire school
Good thing you keep us updated on this CO
-
So it works on other systems? Could it be the OS? I'm not sure when the game was released, so it might just be that it doesn't like XP (I think that's what you're using).
-
I got interested when I found out my games wouldn't run properly. Then I just tried to fix that, and well, one thing led to another.
That wasn't much more than two or three years ago though.
-
Um, wow? That's really odd. I mean, I can't really picture it, at all... It doesn't make sense in my mind. Especially the part about there being enough of them to satiate their predators, and then there still being more! Wow!

I get this week off, but I'm gonna use it to catch up on schoolwork more than anything

I don't do anything special. However, I tend to have atleast four browser windows open at once, for no apparent reason... I guess that somehow helps.

Um, I don't even know what a TiVo is

Let's remember that there's no reason to believe that the US will not remain the world's superpower for atleast...a long time. At that point China will probably have dropped communism or/and India will be better developed, and we'll have quite a few superpowers. Russia should probably get some mentioning in here too.
I doubt we'll have a situation like the one we have today with only one real major superpower. There'll probably be two, three or even more of them. That's what I think atleast.
