Off Topic / Hunting

« on: November 16, 2010, 07:09:03 PM »

"DIE BAMBI, DIE"

I love hunting.
Tomorrow me and my dad are going hunting in southern Illinois. We stay in this little offroad park, called Williams Hill Pass, that has nice cabins to stay in. We stay in the older cabins.
And you can actually see some of my family on the campground page. I think that's me all way on the right, it's an older picture and it's small so I cant' really tell.

Usually we bring out most of our guns to just shoot off at whatever, it's really fun.

Personally, we hunt with shotguns. Using slugs.
We're, probably, going to bring both our shotguns, our .22 rifle, .22 magnum rifle, and my dad's .22 pistol. Yes, he likes .22s, mostly since we got a ton of rounds from my grandpa, and they're so cheap.

Drama / The Help section is for helping people.

« on: October 22, 2010, 09:24:44 PM »

I'm not targeting anyone, here, but I've noticed that a lot of the posts going into the Help section are stupid, non helpful posts.

Examples?

Doh Computer Specs? Dohhh

lol, take better care of your PC then.

STOP. REPEATIVLEY. POSTING.

delete system32.

Alt F4

Are these people male and have they gone through puberty yet?

Among others.


Not everyone knows how to do everything perfectly, they need to know theses things before people instantly get angry and make stupid posts.
Whether people realize it or not, the help section is for helping people with problems with their games, not making them feel bad for their game messing up, even if it's their fault.

Off Topic / I love garage/yard sales!

« on: September 26, 2010, 08:27:01 PM »

So,  few hours ago I got home from a little family vacation thingy to Lake Geneva. And like we normally do, we go garage sale'n the way up there and while we're there.
While my parents look for antiques and stuff they can sell in my grandma's consignment shop, I looked for games.

I found what I was looking for.
What did I get?

Grand Ages: Rome - $4
Civilization 4 Gold Edition - $4! (:D!)
Rise of Nations Gold Edition - 50 cents
Star Trek Away Team - 50 cents I've never heard of, or seen, this game. But it sounded interesting.
Age of Empires 2, and the Conqueror's expansion - 50 cents
Stronghold Crusader - 50 cents (:D!)
Oh and then C&C Tiberian Sun, The first decade, Red Alert The Aftermath, Red Alert Soviet and Allied discs, Red Alert 2, Tiberian Sun Reference Guide, some weird booklet thingy, a key thing, tactic thing, and the Red Alert 2 strategy guide. All of that, for 50 cents.
Edit: Also just saw, I also got Red Alert Counterstrike. With the other C&Cs
And an xbox 360 wireless controller with a rechargeable battery for 10 bucks. Works perfectly.

Oh and my brother got Midnight Club LA for the xbox 360 for 5 bucks. And a couple other games I can't remember.


It may not seem like much, but I was so happy with what I found.

Off Topic / Need new mouse.

« on: August 27, 2010, 09:32:24 AM »

It's that time again when I come here to get help finding good stuff for my computer.

My mouse just fell over and died, no left click and the laser is going bad. I need a new mouse. It was a wired Microsoft Laser Mouse 6000, and I haven't been able to find it again. The reason I want to find it is because it's very comfortable and it doesn't look like someone melted a plastic box and called it a mouse.


So for the new mouse:

• $80 or less
• 5 buttons or more
• Doesn't look like a piece of melted scrap plastic they found in the dump.

Help me I'm using a 3 button ball mouse D:

Edit: I've found this one.

Games / So I just bought SC2...

« on: August 20, 2010, 05:43:10 PM »

...And guess what. I go to register my key, after waiting 2 and 1/2 hours for it to download and update, and it tells me my key can not be claimed.

I emailed Blizzard and now I'm waiting for a reply and I'm pretty mad.

I bought the game today, at Best Buy, so I doubt I got a fake key.

And now to wait some more.

Off Topic / Is there a way to play my Xbox360 on a laptop?

« on: July 23, 2010, 01:38:18 PM »

So, Monday I'm going camping, not really camping in a trailer, and I am wondering if I can play my 360 on the laptop. The laptop has an HDMI port and I have HDMI for my 360. What program would I need to use the laptop as a screen?

Off Topic / I just bought a new graphics card.

« on: June 02, 2010, 04:15:36 PM »

This one.
I'm using it as an upgrade to my crappy integrated card. I bought a 2 year warranty on it, too.
I know it's PCI, I know it's not the best, but it's an upgrade from what I have now.

Also: How do you do the rebate, I wasn't sure and my parents didn't really know.

Discuss, I guess.

Games / Anyone up for some Age of Empires 2?

« on: May 14, 2010, 12:24:47 PM »

Well, yesterday I bought a third copy of AOE2 because when my cousin comes over we like to play it. But when no one else is home/my brother doesn't want to play, I don't feel like playing :S.

So, I want to see if anyone would like to play.

Note: You would have to download another hosting/or whatever you would call it to play online. Ex. Gameranger, Gamespy Arcade, etc.

Tell me what you would like to use to play online I'll download it if I don't have it already. And then we can plan a game for us to play.

Also, since AOE2 is only 8 players, first 8 people to ask will get to play first. You must be willing to download whatever is needed to play online with us.

First list:

Off Topic / Is this a decent graphics card?

« on: April 14, 2010, 01:42:13 PM »

I'm trying to find a better card for my computer. But I'm on a very low budget right now, I found a good card on newegg and it seems decent. Since I'm not a master at computer things, I will let you guys decide if this is good.

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814127469

If it's not that good, it would help to find me one under 40 dollars, with shipping, no rebates because they are annoying.

Discuss.
