Help / TDM problems

« on: June 10, 2010, 01:33:41 PM »

I am running Space guy's CTF mod and weapons don't do any damage.  I just finished reinstalling Blockland today to clear up some other problems I've been having.  If anyone has a solution to this problem, it would be nice to know.

Off Topic / MSN Virus

« on: February 09, 2010, 09:47:19 PM »

Apparently, I sent a link to all of my contacts.  MSN also signed me out as it happened.  That is about all I know but I'm wondering if any of you can shed some light on the situation.  I'm not even really sure where it came from.

Help / Forum clock 6 minutes slow

« on: January 16, 2010, 10:25:33 PM »

The forum's clock is 6 minutes behind every other clock in my house.  I don't know if this is a problem with the server or my computer but it is annoying as hell.

Drama / EX-35B

He needs to go.  He seems to think that being AFK means he can't be killed and that admins are unnecessary.  His topics are pretty much useless spam.  He claims to be 35.  Discuss.

Off Topic / Hardware Questions

« on: January 03, 2010, 08:01:46 PM »

I am writing a research paper for my Composition class.  My topic is on building a computer.  I figured that I may as well learn something that I can get some good use out of.  I know that a lot of you know a crap load about computers.  So I was hoping that you may be able to give me some recommendations on a few things like specs or brands to look for or watch out for.  I am looking at PCs.  If I have overlooked something, let me know.  I don't actually know a whole lot about this.  That is why I'm researching it.

• Build or Buy?, reasons
• CPU - AMD or Intel?,  Cooling?
• RAM - How much is good?
• Hard Drive - Speed and space?
• Motherboard - What exactly am I looking for?
• Video Cards - Specs, brands, and uses.
• Sound Cards and Speakers - What's good?
• Case - Educate me please...
• Power Supply - Educate me please...
• Disk Drives - CD, DVD, Blu-ray?  What's good and worth it?
• Needed tools?
• What are good US locations or sites to go for these things
• Anything else I should know?

Thanks for the help.

Edit: I hate lists now.

Every time I hear one of her songs, I die a bit inside.  This applies for Miley Cyrus as well.  God I hate my sister's music.

We got a about a foot of snow.  Owatonna actually got out of school.  We rarely get out for weather.  My 12 lb puppy has to bunny hop through the drifts.  :D

Drama / Can we just ban GreenBH already?

« on: November 21, 2009, 08:09:30 PM »

He's successfully pissed off most of the forum.  I'm surprised he hasn't been perma'd yet.  I, personally, can't look at his posts without feeling sick.  He needs to go.

Post your favorite math puns or jokes.

A student tired of doing geometry told his teacher, “I’ll do algebra, I’ll do trig, and I’ll even do statistics, but graphing is where I draw the line!”

What is the difference between a PhD in Math and a pizza?  The pizza can feed a family of four.

An engineer thinks that his equations are an approximation to reality. A physicist thinks reality is an approximation to his equations. A mathematician doesn't care.

Off Topic / My sister makes me want to rage.

« on: November 04, 2009, 07:28:00 PM »

She seems to think that because my brother is quietly playing with legos, that she can turn the TV all the way up.  She seems to think that because I turn it down taht she won't here her damn Disney.  She gives the "I'M NOT LISTENING!" thing whenever I try to make a point, proving that she's way too handicapped to even construct a simple thought.  I'm glad that I get to move out in under a year.

According to Blockland, every internet server out there is dead.  I have no idea what the deal is.
