Normal Form - Pride Lands trick or The Castle That Never Was (1000 xp per Nobody) Valor Form - I liked to go to Land of Dragons, in the Anteroom Wisdom Form - TWTNW in the city, where all the shadows are Master Form - Land of Dragons, Anteroom Final Form - on the outer wall (so to speak) of TCTNW, where Micky helps DiZ - tons of weak Nobodies there. Limit Form - never played FM+ Of course, that's assuming you're at the final boss. Before that, you need to find your own places, and it's not easy, especially for Master form.
You're feeling b*tchy. You need to lash out at SOMEONE because of something, maybe unconscious, that has happened to you lately. You are snappy and irritable. Am I right? I think that, since you don't know WHY you feel like this, it's something unconscious or so small that you don't even remember. Maybe stress is just beginning to get to you. Depending on your age, you could be pretty ready to move out of your parents' house, or out of college, or something similar. School could be piling up on you - have you had a lot of assignments, bad grades, or missed work lately?
I never said to "write her off" - I said to give her no more attention than anyone else gets. If it were a normal woman, it would be a one-shot story for a local news network, so why is it any different for a celebrity?
Ouch. Yea, high school kids tend to overreact like that, and unfortunately, they also love spectacle, so when they hear shouting, they are drawn like moths to a flame (NOTE: Not all are like this - the high school kids on this site seem to be more mature, etc etc - but that is the typical situation)
I would rather die than spend any time in jail. Yes, you get food, but prisoners are brutal. You've heard the expression "Don't drop the soap"? It refers to getting raped in the showers. Not pleasant. There are regular beatings, especially for the new prisoners, the food, while available, is abysmal, unless you happen to be a celebrity (lol cable in the cells for them), which I doubt any of you are, truthfully. Not to mention that when you get out, good luck finding an employer that will hire an ex-con. Trust me, that question (have you ever been convicted of a felony) is on every single job application.
No, I am trying to say that celebrities should get no more or less attention than normal people, and since normal people get no attention right now... draw your own conclusions. I am also saying that, while it is bad, it is not nearly the tragedy that the media is making it out to be, because, regardless of what happened to her, she has the money to make it all better (plastic surgery, gallons of make-up, whatever). She should have had one story about how "she got beat up - here is what will happen" and then, ideally, a side story leading from that to an awareness of the millions of other women in worse situations, and that would be it. Regardless of what I think of her, you have to admit, many women are in MUCH worse situations, where they cannot go anywhere without their abusive husbands, they cannot speak up, and they get regularly beaten, and many of them are so cowed by this that they never report it - it is only discovered by, say, a neighbor who reports it.
Yea, but she was beat up ONCE. So many of these other abused women, it happens over DECADES, and sometimes their KIDS start getting abused too. She has the money to fix it all and sweep it under the carpet, so she should NOT be getting these WEEKS of coverage. Rather, this "tragedy" should be a focal point to bring the worldwide issue of spousal abuse into the public eye. How much of THAT has been covered? NOTHING, because the media would rather make megabucks with her name on their front pages than help more ordinary people.
Yes, it is legal. There is no free speech or equality regulations on private forums. Even here, where we can talk about this, if the staff said we couldn't, then we have no choice. They (microsoft) pay to operate the forum, they can control it with an iron fist.
I'm really glad most people don't have your attitude and total lack of regard for consequenses. If they did, our society would be even more f*cked up than it is now.
As far as I can see, barring serious psychological problems (severe depression, etc), suicide, or attempted suicide, is a last-bid attempt by the powerless to get someone to notice them and help them. The vast majority of suicide threats never happen, because someone notices the threatener and helps them, and a large portion of the attempted suicides are foiled or the person is saved after the fact because they don't really want to die - they just want (not in a bad way) attention. They want to feel like someone cares about them. It's not necessarily a bad thing, although to attempt it is a bit extreme.
Focus on the MILLIONS of abused women and children here in the US, or in whatever country you live in, rather than on ONE overhyped woman. I don't know, maybe I feel like this because my best friend was abused as a child by his parents, but I still feel that the real victim is not a woman who can afford the best medical care and plastic surgery to restore her superficial beauty, but all the REAL women who are basically trapped with their abusers.
Yea, no kidding. If the tabloids really want to run articles about celebrity alien abduction or some crap, let them, but keep celebrities OUT of the REAL papers unless they really do something bad, like knowingly spread a plague, or try for world conquest, or something.
It's not sue-able since it's a privately owned forum/game/community. Free enterprise guarantees that. The only rights anyone has on there (or here, or anywhere) is what the admins want you to have.
Yes, repliku, you do seem to be the king of tl;dr, but I do enjoy your posts. I totally agree. This is probably one of the most democratic boards I've ever seen. There are very few incidents of mod power abuse, very little badmouthing of the staff (except for a recent isolated incident *coughBanHaseoV1,2,3cough*)... All in all, the current staff does just fine.
While, technically, this is not illegal, as it is a private service run, owned, and paid for by Microsoft, and therefore they do have the last say... it is rather pathetic. Why can we humans not leave people we don't like alone? If she wants to be lesbian, let her. The only people who should have commented on it should have been people with similar interests or supporting words. It's like your parents say when you're young: "if you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all." She should not have been banned, not for that. Well, technically, people on a public forum or community online have no rights except the ones the administrators give them. I see this kind of comment almost daily on the Runescape forums - unless the mods want you to have freedom of speech, you don't have it. Especially on multinational communities, since not every member nation has that freedom. It sucks, but there it is.
Frank Zappa - Excentrifugal Forz The KING of all acid-trippy songs. When I am around my friend (yes, I only have one for all intents and purposes), we do stuff that seems absolutely random and stupid to everyone else, and we don't even care.
I kind of agree to this. We do need a better way to get only the INFORMED electorate to vote. Maybe a harder way to register? It took me literally 5 minutes, in class, to register - they handed me the paper, told me what to enter, etc etc. I even made a MISTAKE on the application, and they STILL let me vote! I didn't even need the voter registration card! I could see them make voting like getting a Driver's license, at least for the presidential elections - and you have to renew every 4 years. Back on topic, though, yea, it would be either a popularity contest or a whole bunch of smear campaigns, and we see enough of both of those in real politics.
You know, that attitude can get you in trouble later in life - say, in a professional career.
Yea, the pvp updates sparked a 3-day-long riot in Falador (I actually went there and spammed a bit for my brother - red @ signs - because he was...
Even if I DID ever have to rob someone to stay alive, I would never consider it "perfectly fine". It would still be a crime, no matter what the circumstances. The situation only changes if the guy being robbed does something illegal - then it becomes vigilante justice and, while still illegal, is a bit more justifiable.
