Well, I should be able to help in a fashion. Go back and review the submissions how you did in the first place, but be careful with that 0 review I removed ;)

I honestly don't see how that is an abusive review, and I really don't think it deserves a ban. I wont bring up a discussion on it here, but I'd like for you to PM me with a reason as to how that was abusive and what I should've written, if that's not too much to ask (:

This is post numer 8888.

Well this looks nice.

I'll post replies tomorrow.

Hey guys, I just got to level 29. I liked the bronze fist. I felt like that suited me, but I'm kinda iffy with this one. Oh well, not long before I'm back to good looking icons.

Went to the Docs and he said that a 3-day course of antibiotics is called for. Once I've got them, things should start to get better. For some reason now, I feel like playing Theme Hospital.

I will agree that many of them overreacted, especially when Canas had it much worse than everyone else.

I don't know about you mods, and review mods, but yesterday must have been a busy day for you guys. You don't hear about any of that, nope, just everyone crying.

I feel for DHT the most. He was the one who was dealing with a lot of people.

Trying to be a normal RPG, it does do things different to other RPGs but with combat, they must have just thought, "FINSIHED". When it clearly wasn't. The miss % is 99, unless you level up.

I think there is a mod that fixes that but I'm not sure now. There might be a lot of depth to Morrowind but Oblivion is much more playable.

Congrats on getting to level 11

But but but... there are no girls on the mathematics faculty :(

But a lot of them are!

True. But most of them shouldn't be turned into movies.

That IS true. It looks like the Glee film is failing hard at the moment and so was Sex and the City 2 last year.

We even have a Glee 3D musical experience or whatever coming up.

I've never even heard of Glee before.

My gf was into it for a while. Or at least, she watched all the episodes up to some point and then she got tired of it. I haven't seen much of it myself, but I was often sitting next to her when she watching.

Basically it's a series about teenagers in high school who have formed a musical group or something and throughout the episodes they sing all kinds of covers of well known songs (which fit into the story somehow). That's all I know.

There is stuff like Linkin Park of which you can wonder in which category it belongs...

Linkin Park? It belongs in the "stuff that sucks" category. :P

Ah, I'll put it right next to Nickelback then.

But he doesn't even carry a bag! Maybe a bottomless pocket inside his shirt.

Maybe he had a bottemless bag inside his bottomless pocket!

Holy shit! Bagception!

Wow. You must be the first guy I've met who never watches top gear.

I'm just not interested in cars. I don't even own a driver's licence!

You should really get one someday!

Nope, that's not even a word as far as I'm aware.

I've just googled it. It's berlin(ian?) dialect, lol.

Lol. Not even close to Dutch then.

Isn't he doing some police reality show nowadays?

I don't know.

Yeah I think it's called "Lawman".

Hmm... frankly I have no idea =/

But it would make for some great scenes in exploitation movies, I guess.

Uhu, 'exploitation movies' XD

Hey! It's not my fault that they never even broadcast it here.

Wow, that's quite a surprise. Well, you should get the DVDs then. It's only 11 seasons... :P

But DVD series boxes are expensive!

*Side curtains catch on fire*

Oh shit! 0,0

Fuck! Let's get out of here!

Hopefully they didn't get that on camera.

Nah. I'm surprised you didn't get much about the first World War then. I mean... it was pretty much what caused Germany to be put in a poor financial situation and explains why Hitler became 'popular' and all.

Yeah, we discussed what lead to Hitler's takeover of power and of course WW I was part of that. But it was discussed for only a short time.

Heh shame.

It's odd that we probably had more about WW I than you then, considering Holland was neutral in that war :p

Yeah. Usually we got some explanations and extra info along with it, but we only really read like one chapter of The Canterbury Tales and one chapter of Jane Eyre...

It's like reading only one page of "War and Peace"...

Yeah. You can't say you know much about the book if you've only read 1 out of 1200+ pages.

Looks like I spent far too much time watching the Yankees handing out a pasting to the A's last night to notice:

Maybe the average closeted gay person might be but the over the top flaunting kind isn't, so it appears. I really haven't taken much notice to tally.

Hmm the only closeted gay person I know is chubby indeed, but whether that goes for all of them...

I think a better stereotype is: They like musicals and the Eurovision Song Festival.

Put two gimmicks together and you have an awesome gimmick.

Yeah but if one gimmick is cool and the other one is lame... I'm not sure what you'll get :p

Could be. But usually their films have something for everyone, so maybe that's why it never got decent ratings.

That's it! It's just the one flop from them. I'm surprised Monsters, Inc. gets away since I felt that one was more for children as well.

I haven't seen that one either.

Reading some Rotten Tomatoes reviews, the consensus seems to be that while kids will probably be entertained by the visuals and all, it's pretty unfunny and the plot is especially bad. Maybe they at least got the plot right in Monsters Inc.?

Everybody seems to love that film, but personally I only thought the first twenty minutes or so were very good. The rest was 'meh' in my opinion.

I'll watch it myself and see what it's like.

Yeah of course. I seem to be one of the few who disliked it so big chance you'll enjoy it.

Yeah I guess there was Blitzball and monster hunting and the butterfly thing...

Well, the only good one there was monster hunting. Sure, it can be tedious but it gave you challenging monsters to defeat.

Did it give you any further rewards other than a nice challenge?

Well the level 52 sword doesn't look as badass as the level 42 either in my opinion :p

Level 51, you mean?

Yeah that one.

Hey, what do you know...

Manowar FTW!

Hey, it IS a real genre! Or at least, some kind of supergenre.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exploitatio n_film

There's also a "Women in prison" genre, where the "you just droped your soap"-scene would be a perfect match.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Women_in_pr ison_film

Also, while not really a "women in prison" film, you really should watch The Halfway House some time. It features a tentacle monster and the great line "Stop thinking with your dick, Dick!"
It's really worth it.

Hey! It's not my fault that they never even broadcast it here.

Wow, that's quite a surprise. Well, you should get the DVDs then. It's only 11 seasons... :P
