He's still active on PRCU, though not with the vigor that he used to be. He's probably just got other stuff going on.

You'll probably see a drop-off of productivity in general for the next couple weeks. Most american universities and schools are entering Finals this month, and nothing cuts down on the creative process like looming term papers and final exams.

Finals now? News to me...the semester overall for most everyone should be almost halfway complete. Spring Break coming up after all, and that's usually around the halfway point.
Could easily be mistaken, but I don't think so. If so though...."who knew?"

WSorry, yeah, Finals if you're on a quarter system, Midterms on semester system. Either way, March- whole lotta schoolwork.

Yah well....
You're thinking American School system anyway.... Becides I finished College 2 years ago. Nah, just cougt up in work. (Actually that's a lousy excuse.) I work about 4 hours at a NetZero Tech Support Call center... then I come home at midnight or so and then stay up all night. Usually when I get around to drawing and such. So I really don't have a very good explanation for my absence... other then I downloaded FEAR.... played it... and a bunch of old StarTrek games... Re-addicted to BattleField 2... LAN on the first saterdays of the month, and I'm wrecked for at least 2 days afterwards... every second wenesday LAN at friends places and wrecked the day after... reciently new Motherboard and processer, + video card (mmmm PCI Express.)... and every now and then Run Day errands for family, and play Taxi for anyone too lazy to get a car... or is just likes my clean auto-mobile. So since I'm told usually twice a night to "eat shit and die" from irate Amearicans who think there internet problems are all my fault. Needless to say I'm pritty depressed some nights... (I should mention our sister call center for TS and Customer service is in Louisiana, USA... Big cash of idots there... We pick up the pieces... of the lives they shatter...) and since some people will be saying"ohmygodhepostednewpixxx!" lesssee... filler...filler...filler...filler... ah hah... *post*

Oooh, FEAR. Scary, scary-ass game. Good choice. (Though, downloaded? Piracy is bad, y'know...)
IF you're getting calls from "Americans", might I ask where you're from? And nifty pic as always- just a doodle, or EH character to be? |

What, the location under my avatar too obvious for ya?
and I only consider it Piracy if it was worth paying for. Becides I spent almost $500 on a computer upgrade to play it... That game isn't all that hot shit... If I had paid for it .. I'd feal like the one that got ripped off.

I think the price that I would pay to upgrade my computer to be able to play that game would be worth it if the game were worth playing. That's why I am all about some downloading for "trial" use. If I don't like the game after I downloaded it (even though it looked cool in demo) I ain't gonna buy it. Downloading is a user's best friend. Since I am a computer geek, would you mind indulgin me on some specs of your new 500.00 rig ? ^^ Me= (P4 2.0 Ghz 1 GIG RAM GeForce FX 6200 OC) Pretty old by today's gaming standards but it gets me by @ around 20 FPS average in DOOM3

In my experience, Painkiller, Half Life 2 and Unreal Tournament 2004 are better FPS games. I would recommend those.

And pish tosh on the "worth paying for" argument. If you played the game you should have paid for it. I've heard people use the "worth paying for" argument up and down the street. So, what you're telling me is you wouldn't have played the last 12 games you beat at all if the only way to get them was to pay for it? Please. It's stealing plain and simple. |

Indeed there are some bad apples out there who when playing through a game they downloaded won't go out and buy the full version. In my experiences however, the opposite is true: if I find a game I like, I buy it. Same can be said of Operating systems as well. How many people have that nice little illegal copy of XP? I actually purchased an individual liscence from the company I work for and still use the downloaded copy of XP I got off the net because of the lack of "register me now for great justice" things therein. In conclusion, a slightly edited original statement: Quote:
