  1. As far as I know, there isn't a rule stating that we're an English only server. However, if people are speaking in a foreign language, and it's impeding the communication of others, that's when we consider it spam.  It's always up to the ranking admin's discretion. Furthermore if people are warned by an admin to stop doing something, they should stop doing it weather or not they read it on the MOTD.  If they feel they are being treated unfairly, they can discuss with another admin, or post a clarification on the forums.  

     

    That's just my take on it.

  2. I called in to work back when I was immature and would call in tired.  My mom was off that day, and woke me up saying, "I can't take this anymore.  You need to wake up."  When I went up front, she had been watching coverage of the towers.  The second plane had just hit when she woke me up, but what I saw was the towers and a lot of smoke.  My first thought was why was she wigging out over footage from the WTC bombing.  Then I saw the buildings fall.

     

    I remember we eventually went to church, and there were others there praying.  I remember later meeting up with my friends to try to get an understanding on things.  We were all worried about one of our friends who was just enrolled in the Army, because I think he had just came back from training, and we were wondering if we were about to go to war.  Also, I remember everywhere around town there were huge gas lines because everyone thought we were going to lose our gas supply.

     

    That's about all I can remember from it.

  3. This is supposed to feel a lot different from the other Star Wars films.  I heard the studio forced them to make some changes because it felt too much like a war movie.  That kind of bummed me out, because I think a war movie set in the Star Wars universe would be awesome.  People get so wrapped up with nostalgia that the feel like everything has to be just like other things.  New ideas are great, and this will add a bit of connection to the first two trilogies that were missing. 

  4. I play it with my wife and son.  It's kind of fun to be out and walking around from place to place.  And it's a game that my wife is actually into, which is a novelty in itself.  We are also using an app called ResQWalk, that tracks the mileage you walk, and sends corporate donations to a rescue shelter of your choosing.  We're walking for Black Pine Animal Sanctuary here in Indiana.  They take in retired entertainment animals and unwanted exotic pets.  They have a 16 year old chimp, a few lion, several tigers, some bears, and lots of other critters.  Anyways, food for thought.  Also, I want to start taking a trash bag, and some grabbers, and start cleaning up litter while we walk as well.  Trying to teach my son to put more reality in his augmented reality, and do some good for the community.

    What asked me to get on and ban some TKer's.  When I got on, they were super negative, and openly talking in game that they didn't care about their actions because they didn't care about DoDS or the community.  I figured, they didn't need to come back.

    So this is my stance on the current affairs of Westeros and the rest of that there world.

     

    I hate Brandon Stark; Rickon has never been developed as a viable character (show or books TMK) as such anything goes there, one can hope that baby Rickon will seize Winterfell back and kill not just Ramsey but all of the Bolton's. Reason I hate Brandon Stark: Had he listened to his fucking parents in the first three chapters of the series House Stark would not have been as hyper focused on House Lannister, fewer tensions and hostilities on the road to Kings Landing, there fore more Direwolves. That's right Direwolves dying/banished= Bran's fucking fault. Now in this new world I have made where it's all fucking sunshine and rainbows because Brandon Stark is not a stuck up little shit who won't listen to his Lord and Lady parents; instead of Lancil Lannister being King Roberts Squire we have Bran; why you ask? Well because he listened to his fucking parents and is now not a cripple. Now King Robert doesn't get mortally wounded on hunt, and Lord Eddard Stark doesn't die, the North never rises, and so House Stark doesn't loose power (let alone half so many lives) or money. As such current affairs of Westeros are in better (seemingly) working order than anything we have seen to date.

     

    But shit, now there is a problem with space time continuity. Bran was never a cripple as such Bran never gave William a brain melting seizure where the only thing he was sure of was the need to hold the door so Bran's useless ass can live a bit longer... aah but fuck isn't that a better world line anyway? Where the boy who was normal didn't grow up into a vegetable?

     

    TL;DR: Brandon Stark is a conceited shitbag, all the fucked up ness of the series can be traced to start with his refusal not to climb for 4 days.

    I disagree.  Bran would have had little effect on Jofrey being a dick, and causing the whole scene that ended up in the death and release of the first 2 missing direwolves.  Edward would still be Robert's hand, and still try and use his moral to muck up people's plans, and still end up dead.  The rest just trickles down from there.

    Type of issue: (Networking)

    Brief Description of Issue: So, I bought a house, and when doing the final walk throughs, now that all the furniture was removed, I've noticed that each room has an Ethernet jack.

    in the master bedroom closet, I found this little gem :

    Now, I'm pretty sure that isn't a switch, but what is it?  And can I use it to get internet to all of the jacks in the house?

  8. I've been without Internet since Thursday night... :'-(

     

    Apparently Frontier thought they could take over Verizon in California, Texas, and Florida yesterday, but that didn't work out too well for anyone. 

  9. Thanks Yama. I don't understand all the commotion. The pose didn't seem too bad, but I can see how it didn't fit her character as well. The people all upset about them changing a stupid pose sound like those gamergate guys who think any undersexualization in video games is the end of the world.

    He was already banned for a week once in January, and this was his first time back, and got banned again.  I don't think he has any intention to be a productive member of the pub.

    This new forum supports something portal-esque called "Pages," I just haven't had the time to to play with it yet.  We might even be able to use that for the newsletters... We just have to learn how everything works.

     

    As for the skin, it's got some quirks, just like the last ones did and I'll have to spend some time looking at the coding, but if you guys want to be on the lookout for a theme we can purchase and use: https://community.invisionpower.com/files/category/162-themes/ Let me know!

    I see Star Wars the Force Awakens is on there, and it's free... just saying... :D
