I swear to god, how do you get much faster internet with Xfinity there? I used to have 21MB/s and now I'm down to like, 13??

Because I have this super fancy cable (fiber optic) to my Docsis 3.1 modem. Pardon the cable mess, my apartment is cat 5e wired and the cabinet for the modem is a bit crammed and I haven't gotten around to make it better.

Shame about that ping and upload speed though

Oh, that's because I am on wifi, only AC1900 through my desktop to my AC5400 router

Hey guys,

Just checking in here. I purchased the game in 2009. My id is definitely old, 7208. I haven't browsed around in a while on here or the game. Lots has definitely changed here for sure. Maybe some of you guys remember me from servers of Surburb's, Diggy's / Wentworth's, YorkTown95's, Jasa's, etc. I mostly played in the City Rps. Time definitely flew. Hard to believe I had my key for 9 years.

I have been doing well. I'm in college and should be finishing that soon. Then I also work. Before I forget, hockey took over my life literally... watching plenty of games for sure.

I hope everyone I know or browses this thread is doing well! =)

+respect

I absolutely ADORE your media center setup. Looks almost similar to mine, actually, except I don't have those fancy lights of yours, haha.

(click for full res)

Is that an X900E? That is the TV I have and yours looks very similar to mine, and you should invest in some LED's even two strips like what is in mine goes a long way. However, I envy your speaker setup, I just use a soundbar + subwoofer since I don't want to drive my neighbors around me nuts.

Still a work in progress as I just moved in less than a month ago. The worlds most unnecessary set up, a projector with a near 100" screen over my main desk, not pictured is my secondary desk with steering wheel, position may change (too many options in this place)

Also any love for media center setups?

You silly beans, it's super duper easy to create your own solo public lobbies on PC and even possible to get friends into them. Just create a custom firewall rule blocking GTA5.exe from accessing a specific port that talks to Rockstars public lobby servers but not block the ability to remain online.

that is a fine looking ass

FIRST MAJOR SNOWFALL time to break out the eurobeat CD omfg

hot damn that's pricey. was the entire car repainted? my sister recently rear-ended someone in her g6 and it totaled the car-- looked a lot worse than that. we fixed it with less than a grand worth of parts iirc. the only downside is we couldn't find a nice used red hood so she's driving around with a new matte black one lol

Was repaired at a select State Farm place and they just got all OEM parts and OEM paint to put on the car to cover up body work they did on the front.

Been a long ass time since I have posted in this thread :o

Lots has happened, especially since I had my first car accident this year in early November. I rear ended someone when they did a dumb (no one hurt, 30-40 mph bump), but because Minnesota has that auto-fault pretty much rule, my liability coverage had to step up.

However, it got fully repaired at a grand total of $5,120 worth of damage. New side fenders, 4+ hours of body work on the hood, new bumper, upper & lower grille, front headlights, radiator support bracket, hood latch release and sensors, and fresh coat of paint (Honestly the list of work is a 5 page packet of details).
