  1. Lmao i'm the first Safari vote in a year-old thread xD Honestly I've never had any problems so I don't see a need to replace it. I like Firefox a lot as well.

    Well the first problem here is obviously that you use a Mac eh? :P

  2. I'm somewhat sad to see that the NA server of Armored Warfare to be so barren, and I'll acknowledge that Obsidian didn't do that great of a job of addressing some of the game's issues before the audience sort of left. But my curiosity is more that, now that the game has had another major update that has done a lot to address some of the communities issues, is anyone still playing or willing to give it another shot?

     

    Here's a link to their latest update and they've even had Jingles review it: https://aw.my.com/us/news/general/update-016-mighty-jingles

     

    Just wanting to see if anyone is still interested in this game at all or maybe see if there are any people who've never seen this game before and might be interested.

  4. Obligatory "It's Dead Jim" 

    But seriously though, the PS Vita is a wonderful system. I've loved the 3 that I've had since it came out and the current slim version might not have as great of a display as the first gen's OLED, I do still enjoy it and it's thin enough for me to take around. 

     

    While the library wasn't nearly as strong as the PSP's I do appreciate that they did let me bring over a good number of my downloadable PSP games onto this system as I enjoy being able to play all of the old games as well as some of the newer titles (Though I regret buying memory card...so so expensive).

  5. This attitude of elitism helps no one.

     

    Non-Pokemon fans getting into the game just might get them into the actual Pokemon games. Or it might not. They might just be following the fad, and drop it soon. Either way, it doesn't matter - they're having fun. There's no reason people new to Pokemon can't play this game, too. We past-current Pokemon fans do not own the franchise.

     

    As long as they don't turn out completely shunning the Pokemon franchise in every single way other than Pokemon GO, and throwing the rest of us under the bus. You know... Like Bronies did with the MLP franchise/old MLP fans. In fact, the Brony phenomenon is more comparable than you'd probably like to think. Prior to G4, the existing fandom was mostly all about the toys, as that's always been the foundation of MLP. 'Bronies' came into the franchise with a cartoon, which is just about as unconventional to MLP as Pokemon GO is to the Pokemon franchise (they're not exactly comparable, as MLP has had some animations previously, but hopefully you get what I mean).

     

    So watch your elitism. Personally I think it's kind of fun to see Pokemon explode again. I do not think it will last long. But I laugh at seeing a table of Pokemon merchandise at my local Walmart, and Pokemon all over the news. Even pastors speaking of how Pokemon is the devil. It's just like the late 90s all over again! As long as Pokemon GO-only fans don't turn into Bronies, claiming it all for themselves, I'll enjoy it. As I said, I don't think this fad will last. I don't even know if it will really be a big deal even a month from now, to be honest.

    This is one of those subjects where I think it's just a good idea to just accept that people are having fun. It's good to see people enjoying something new but watching the sort of backlash for people being like "I told you so" about Pokemon is kinda saddening. The way the franchise worked up until now didn't seem to hit it off with a lot of people and now it does. Change is sometimes good!

  6. Not on this site, but on another site they had a weird ban thing. The first time you get banned, its 6 hrs. Then it doubles. So 12 24 48 and so on. I think if I get banned again it'll be like 50,000+ hours which is basically like 6 years. 

     

    I also accidentally DDoS'd a forum once. I was trying to get a bunch of views on a post as a joke and I ended up setting a bunch of refreshers up to do that. I ended up crashing their entire site for 6 hrs and they banned all my accounts. I deserved it after doing that, even though it was accidental :3

    That's amazing, somewhat silly too. I've honestly only ever used one other forum site myself other than this one and that one is for PSP dev stuff.

  7. Unless the radio station makes them public, then there is no way to know the exact songs that they use in their playlist other than downloading what you see playing. Sorry about that! 

  8. Maybe.. but it seems a little too much to just play guitar.. both levitating 2 things at once AND plucking strings.. I mean.. look at twilight trying to do multiple things at once.. :lol:

    Yes, she may be doing a few difficult spells to the extreme, but for a pony that specializes in magic.. she had a lot of trouble doing it..

    Unicorns aren't as powerful as most ponies believe.. Our magic is a tool.. not a miracle..

     

    OOOooooo.. what if your music based talent gives you the ability to make the strings vibrate at certain frequencies?

    You'd get a lot of control in the sounds your guitar makes :D as well as balancing out your character a little ;)

     

    EDIT: Out of boredom i decided to use that pic of Twilight.. edit it and add some vectored objects to show how it'd look if a pony was straining to hold and electric guitar.. strum it.. AND hold a mic.. at the same time..

    (changed the background to sorta match your OC color..)

    I can appreciate this, the edit is kinda neat I'll admit.
