  1. You may be mistaking a credit ban for hitting the credit cap lol When you hit the credit cap, a message will appear letting you know that you cannot earn any more credits that day (it's the same message that is used for normal credit bans), so don't worry too much.
  2. They always said this day would never come. What are they to say now? http://img209.imageshack.us/img209/5244/azaxxadmitsit.jpg

  3. Photon, because it has no mass. But would it really be a particle then? Or a neutrino, if you'd rather. There is no true definition for size when it comes to particles. There's the SMPP, but even it disagrees with itself on occasion. Honestly, they need some structure. Just a little bit. Because people do bad things while under the guise of Anon, and it's giving the whole idea a bad rep. Also, it's not a group, it's the entirety of people on the internet. I am anon, you are anon. Everyone is anon. Yes, and I would think this would be blatantly obvious by my choice of profile picture and signature. lol No I haven't. It started going to crap when it became a corporation. Now, instead of thinking about competitive play, they have to think about entertaining competitive play. So they occasionally let people in who are below the bar so that the "old sharks" can eat them on camera, as it were.
  4. LOL My sister's computer realized it was running on ME and tried to commit suicide. xD

  5. Welcome back Also, first.
  6. Been kind of a crap day. Spent about 6 hours in a doctors office getting my face cut into, then another three hours trying to get antibiotics, and now I find out that it's going to be very difficult to record Tekkit gameplay. Worst part is, I can't drink away my sorrows because of the antibiotics. :/

  7. Occasionally lol But I get over it. xD I would be a forerunner. Or a precursor. More than likely a precursor. And he sounds like that because all it is is the actor yelling and them playing with it digitally. I don't commonly eat breakfast, but you lucked out! I made a sausage and egg sandwich on a sesame seed bun. With cheddar cheese. Well this is strictly a matter of opinion, so I'll give my own opinion. 1. The Stephen King novel about the evil car. The name escapes me, but I think it's Christine. 2. I would have to go with Doom 3. I am not a big "afraid" kind of guy, but Doom 3 did startle me quite a bit. Which I suppose can be the same as scaring. 3. I'm really not scared by movies that often. I usually see things coming. But when I was a kid, it was the Nightmare on Elm Street ones that kept me up at night (pun xD). Because people think that they become more respected when they are dedicated than they are when they are normal or trusted members. It's complete bs, but it's part of the mentality of spammers. I'd have to go with Ivan. The reason being simply because they made him tougher than Clubber Lang because it was a sequel, and they needed to make it more interesting. Atoms are elements, not particles. Particles are electrons, protons, neutrons, etc. Also, this is an impossible to answer question because they are so small and moving so often that they are impossible to count with current technology. However, for an estimate, a trillion trillion trillion trillion trillion in the hand of a child, and 13x that for the head of an adult. Also, I'm sure you meant "in", right? lol Honestly, I'm more of a single player gamer myself. For that reason, I recommend Nier and Resonance of Fate. They both have great visuals and Nier has an AMAZING story. Nier is slow to warm up though, but massively replayable. I recommend a google search for both games for reviews. Also, if Nier doesn't work, try Neir. lol
  8. They aren't color blind lol They just have less chromatic acuity. We can tell this by the number of "cones" in their retinas.
  9. Welcome to the friendliest corner of the Haloverse. I hope you enjoy your time here and make a bunch of new friends. If you have any questions, feel free to PM myself or any other moderator. Have fun!
  10. Or it's because the forge objects have lights built into them. lol I dunno, I'm not the tech guru. lol
  11. So far, only using a capture card, as far as I know. However, 343i may come out with a rendering system later on down the road. I don't know if it will support Halo Reach though.
  12. <implying that they haven't always been ridiculous. <implying that only select individuals created clans in the past instead of everyone and their mother having one. <implying that clans were ever really relevant to begin with. lol

  14. But it's always been his dream to make sandwiches. Ever since he was a little genetically enhanced teenager, he's dreamed of making the perfect sandwich. With just the right amount of meat, cheese, and vegetables to make any mouth (except vegetarian mouths) water. His dream is of saving humanity not only from the covenant, but from low-grade sandwiches.
  15. Well, being a bit of a troll myself, let me tell you how I would abuse the crap out of this system if I was in the right mood. 1 and 2 Charging in front of my teammates whenever they have power weapons so that they would deal a lot of damage to me, then charging into the enemies grenades. Bam, option to boot. 3. Same as above, but doing it multiple times to multiple teammates. I don't mind if it ruins my k/d at the beginning of the match, since it would be 1v4 I can more than make that up since I now have four targets and they only have one. Especially in SWAT. My version is: 1. One betrayal gives the option to boot (depending on the playlist). If it's accidental, there's always the "forgive" option. 2. Being betrayed does not add a death, but instead adds a death to the person who betrays. 3. Add "betrayal banning". If a player gets booted for betraying three times in 24 hours, then it's a 10 minute ban. If a player receives two of these bans in one week, then it's a full day ban. If a player gets two full day bans in one month, then it's an X-Box live ban. Or something like that. 4. Make it to where players who betray teammates cannot pick up that teammate's weapon. This will prevent betrayals for power weapons. 5. If players are intentionally getting betrayed (i.e. jumping in front of teammates), then that player will be forced from the game. I <3 lists.
  16. This is not an official response, nor should it be taken as such. This is simply an "I'm lookin out for you because I love Halo as well". If it is a legit copy of the game, then you shouldn't have any trouble playing it. However, if it's a stolen copy, then you will be console banned, and your XBL Account may be deleted. Also, please note that technically, the only people who should have a copy of Halo 4 at this point in time are Gamestop managers, IGN employees, and other review company employees who commonly receive advance copies of the game. Mind you, if you are not one of these people, then your friends may report you if they see you playing the game early, and Microsoft is on edge with the stolen copy thing, so things may get ugly pretty quickly. My suggestion is to either play offline, or wait until November 6.
  17. Yeah, sorry to say this but the reason America is considered a joke is because we spend so much money on our military, and the only way we get to use them anymore is during "peacekeeping operations". And it was actually Nixon and Bush that gave us this reputation. And off the top of my head I can list at least five different things that are far more important than the military. 1. Public Education: This is one of the many reasons Americans are considered to be the dumbest people on the planet by our neighbors. When children are using textbooks older than they are, there's a problem. 2. National Healthcare: Until recently, we were one of the few countries left that didn't have some sort of national healthcare. The rest of the countries are either third world countries, or non-super power countries. Another reason we're considered a joke. 3. Public Transport: The US has serious issues with our current "let everyone drive everywhere" policy. Simply put, we burn too much oil, and public transport systems are usually ill-kept and difficult to find in the US. Yet another reason we are considered a joke. 4. Incentives to keep jobs in-country: Outsourcing has been a serious issue for years now. If it wasn't cheaper to move jobs to different countries, then companies wouldn't do it. And you guessed it, this is another reason America is considered a joke. 5. The Motherfrakin Space Program: Seriously. This is self-explanatory. Even WE think that NASA not having a space shuttle is a joke. Also, it's worth noting that the president doesn't come up with the national budget, he just signs it. You'll want to look towards other elected officials to find the ones to blame for all of the above. Like senators and congressmen. At least Obama reads the budget before he signs it, which is something I doubt the Bush clone Romney would do.
  18. Replace college with high school and it's the same here lol Except I didn't really bother with MW3. And mine is four characters lmao Anyways, welcome to the friendliest corner of the Haloverse. If you have any questions/concerns, feel free to PM myself or any other moderator (dark blue and yellow names). I hope that you enjoy your time here.
  19. Because I am getting older. lol Taking out all forms of diseases, and environmental factors (e.g. falling pianos), the rate of decay for a human being is dependant on their genes. This is actually a question with no right or wrong answer because it is impossible to tell such things with certainty (even in laboratory tests there would still be factors like weakened immune systems, etc.) however from a mathematical standpoint, the average human lifespan would significantly increase. The average human life span is around 80 years (rough estimate), so if you exclude all of those who die at a young age due to diseases and accidents, that number would jump up to around 110 years, plus or minus 20. Because your personality is compatible with Cortana's, causing you to feel good feelings toward her, and you want to be Master Chief, causing him to be your hero.
  20. Actually, during his time as the governor of Massachusetts the state was rated 47th in job creation. That means that only three states had worse job creation. So he won't be creating jobs. Not to mention that he proposed tax cuts to the rich that would end up putting us in further debt by about 7.8 trillion USD in the course of a decade. He may be good at "personal finances" (and even that's debatable considering that he was born with a silver spoon in his mouth), but he is horrible at government finances. Actually, Bush left the office with a deficit increase rate of 15.9%. With Obama, that number has dropped down to 4.8%, which is the lowest the increase rate has been since Clinton. While Obama said he would decrease the deficit, it seems that at least he staunched the flow. Judging by the pattern in the decrease of the rate (based off of the way it has been going), with Obama in office it will begin to actually shrink the deficit in two years. Except that Romney couldn't even get one state out of debt (actually put it further into debt, undoing everything the previous governor had done), so how exactly is he supposed to get 50 states out of debt? The thing that puts me off about Romney is that he isn't actually campaigning off of his own prowess, he's campaigning off of the fact that a lot of people don't like Obama. That and his behavior mimics a "puppet politician". A puppet politician is someone who agrees to do things for powerful people (i.e. major companies, rich men, etc.) if they support their campaign for office. I will now list the behavior quirks that have led me to this conclusion. 1. He outright lied during debates (i.e. saying that Obama has increased the amount that the deficit is "going up", etc.) If you had something over your opponent that made you better qualified, you wouldn't need to lie. Even if your opponent was slightly better than you, you wouldn't lie in front of the entire nation and risk being dubbed a fraud unless you had something major to lose, like for instance the support of people who can help make you richer than you already are. 2. He does not seem to have any sort of plan for anything once he gets in office, with the exception of destroying the public broadcasting system, going to war with Iran, and getting rid of Obamacare. None of this would benefit the majority of the people in any way, so why would he do it? Getting rid of PBS would increase the amount of money Media Conglomerates make off of advertisements by increasing their viewers, going to war with Iran would make weapon developers and oil companies richer, and getting rid of Obamacare would allow Insurance companies to make more money by screwing over people. These two things are the major behavioral indicators of him being a puppet, and while there are others I have neither the time nor the energy to list them all. You may ask yourself, "Is having a puppet as a president such a bad thing?" The answer is of course it is. Not only is he a puppet, but it's pretty easy to see who's pulling his strings. The ones pulling his strings aren't exactly known for benefiting the people either. Oh, and the last "puppet president" we had was George W. Bush, and look how that turned out. Actually, I have a little more time so I'll go ahead and list some similarities between Romney and Bush. 1. Both governors before running for president. 2. Both have tried to violate the Establishment Clause of the First Amendment. 3. Both ran for president with HUGE backing from major corporations. 4. Both are republican. 5. Both used underhanded and dirty tactics to try to win a presidential election, including smear campaigns, made up "good will" stories, etc. 6. Both had little if any experience in federal governing before running for president. 7. Both wanted to start wars in the middle east (Bush Iraq, Romney Iran). 8. Both wanted to cut funding to federal aid programs to increase funding to the military. Short list, but pretty vital. Bush is considered one of the worst presidents of all time. The only reason he won a reelection was because the person who he was running against was a joke. I was rooting for Bush the first time around, and that was a major mistake on my part. However, I do NOT want a mirror image of George W. Bush in the oval office, which is why I'm going for Obama.
  21. None of that. You know better.
  22. They are level locked based on the progression system, not the skill system. While the two systems do run hand in hand, they are still separate to a degree. From my understanding, you "rank up" similar to how you do in Reach, and that's what weapon unlocks are based off of.
  23. Worked out pretty well for Halo 3. Halo 3 was a while ago, so let me elaborate. In Halo 3 after they released their first map pack (Mythic I believe) they limited most, if not all, of the ranked playlists to only people who had ALL of the DLC.
  24. The Didact is an actual forerunner. The Didact (which is a title, not a name) is the military leader of the forerunner military. While he is not in COMPLETE control, as the forerunners run similar to the way the US does military wise, he is the most "evolved" and respected out of all of the other members of the military. Which doesn't say much, as the forerunners tend to look at their military in a scum-of-the-Earth manner.
  25. My friends and I had a month long LAN party with Halo CE and Halo 2 because one of my friends was moving to Texas and wasn't well off enough to afford internet. We're talking a REAL gamer LAN party, none of this "go home and shower at 10 AM" bs that kids these days do. We ate, drank, slept, and breathed Halo the entire month of June. First couple of days, we all rode the bus together to school, but after school was out BAM! Right back to Halo. I think I showered once that entire month.
