Then the world shall implode. I'm the same way, there's a lot of cash to be made with flash, it's just the buckling down thats hard. I've been web designing at work experience this week, and it's a lot better without the distractions, i made an entire game in 1/2 a day :P. So, yeah, if you want to concentrate, get rid of games, get some coffee, and get to work :D.

Hey could anybody recommend to me a good site for web hosting, lots of features or w/e and low price or whatever you think is the best?
I dare someone to beat them. DARE!

Have you used them, or did someone tell you about it? I'm also kind of looking for hosting.. (:

By games i mean tf2 etc, i don't mean start making games by getting rid of games you've made ;).
Just to clarify D:
Web hosting
It seems like quite a few of the regs are looking for hosting now, all around the same time.
Summer regs
Have anyone else realized that quite a lot of the regs who posted a lot in the summer have started posting very little since it's ended? I mean, I knew that school would get in the way, but a lot of them were a lot more active before the summer.
I simply tend not to reply to the shitty AS questions :P If there is something I feel worthy of my attention it tends to be something that I can respond to mathematicaly or in a manner where I describe the solution because even doing pseudo-code would be too effortesome - plus the fact that often I wouldn't care to do it becuase I know that most times than less, my response is ignored by the guy who wants a quick thoughtless solution

Shunning them only makes them bump their thread every 10 mins, with an increasingly angry icon and and increased number of caps. Rather than just dumping code on them, you should link them to tutorials and/or give them a near finished code, that they have to tweak themselves. That way they'll (hopefully) learn a little, at least.
Also, speaking of tutorials you people need to write more stuff for AS3: Main. It's been out for two versions of Flash now and AS3 Main is still tiny compared to AS: Main. Jeez =P

Yeah, i was like that for a bit but i had an exchange student living here, and then homework... i try to keep up though ^_^
why are you guys banning all my accounts? im not gonna be able to post on the reg lounge :-(

Because your main is banned. A ban is a ban. It's not a "a ban from the BBS, apart from the reg lounge". Just because your a flash reg doesn't mean you're above the rules.

That looks really good, but NEVER trust a site that says unlimited storage/bandwith - especially one that cheap! There will likely be a clause in the TOS saying that you must delete any high bandwith using files at their request. I remember seeing an article on Team 17's website about them having trouble with their host when they tried to put a game (Worms) online for free.. the host told them to take it off because it used too much bandwith, even though they stated it was unlimited. I was thinking about using that host (can't remember the name) so that put me off ;)
I recently got hosting with www.startlogic.com. 60gb storage, 600gb bandwith. That's $4 a month if you take the 2 year option :P
Sup, bitches :)

Although I see your point, in what way is a normal, realistic host something to look out for? I was suggesting them because I use them and I've had no problems with their service (their customer service is brilliant, though I'm sure most sites have similar quality). The issue I was talking about with Team 17 (a games developer) was this year, or late last year.. not 'in the past'.
Sup, bitches :)

I find myself honestly coming to the conclusion that a great many people posting "OMG PLZ HELP" threads have no interest whatsoever in learning anything. They're working with a copy-paste script that they don't understand a line of, and they want you to fix it so they can take credit for your work. If you call them out on it, the answer is always the same: "I know the basics." Apparently, somewhere along the way "the basics" became "knowing how to pirate Flash, open it, and copy and paste a script onto an instance." And I hate viewing forum posts through such cynical lenses; I want to help people who genuinely want to learn.
I just think that those people are greatly outweighed by 14 year-old script kiddies who think that being able to work BitTorrent qualifies them to write the next Halo without learning anything at all, and sometimes the ones who genuinely want to learn slip through the cracks.
Also, speaking of tutorials you people need to write more stuff for AS3: Main. It's been out for two versions of Flash now and AS3 Main is still tiny compared to AS: Main. Jeez =P
You can't effectively copy-paste AS3 scripts without having at least a passing knowledge of the language, hence no demand? That and a lot of the stuff in AS3 isn't all that different from, and is effectively covered by, AS:Main tutorials?
Also, I'm a lazy bastard. I dunno about anyone else, but that's my story and I'm sticking to it. ^^
Dentist -- Yay
So two to three days ago, I was about to head out to school, when suddenly my back tooth started hurting. I ended up going to the dentist today to get it checked out since the pain started to get unbearable, and they said that my cavity has went into my nerves, and all this shit, causing the "discomfort." This resulted in an idea of the procedure called, "Root Canal."
So yeah, I have to get a root canal done, and I'm fucking scared. It's on my back tooth, basically a moler or whatever. And just because of that, I had to go over to see a specialist in endonetics which are charging about $1250 dollars, and a Co-Pay of $300, since my insurance pays for a bit and I'll only be paying $300 -- I'm just like fuck that, that's too expensive.
So I'm looking out for a regular dentistry to perform the procedure -- many people are saying "no" since it's a tooth in the back, but whatever. Wish me luck :C Anyone had this procedure done?
Share some love on the subject, and tell me if it hurt or whatever.

WE STILL HAVE TO HEAVY-MEDIC. I used to be amazing at TF2 until i randomly stopped playing. Once i get time on the basement computer ill soo play Dep.
Root canals don't hurt so long as someone competent is doing them. They gave me a 500mg or 1g (I forget which, it was something like 10-12 years ago) Motrin before they even numbed me up, and by the time they actually started the procedure, the only thing I was feeling was At One With the Universe. The whole process took, like, an hour, which included the time spent waiting for the local to kick in.
I was a little sore afterward, but it was nothing compared to the pain I was in before I had it done. Definitely get it done, by an oral surgeon if you can swing it. That stuff can get out of hand in a hurry if you don't take action; you don't really want gangrene in your jaw...
EVERYONE WITH CS4!

I cancelled my account with them 3 months before the new billing period got a confirmation and they billed me, took me ages to get my money back. Just my experience, wouldn't use them again

I have headphones on, you fucked me up. That is way too noisy (I mean, white noise.. not.. like.. volume) to be wind :o
That sprinkler is FUCKING AWESOME though, and it's so simple O_O Very awesome.

haha, alright sweet, i'll avoid them then, I've narrowed it down to startlogic and the HostMonster, but because of the "don't trust unlimited bandwidth!" rant i might go with startlogic, the review was quite good for that =D
Unless anybody else has something better to add in?

I'm your average Afro-American fetus. For example: I enjoy basketball, I'm rather good when I play too, but I'm much too busy scratching my horrific cracked skin these days.

Move the top/bottom one to the middle, and the other 2 to the left. It sounds like a retarded hybrid duck devil :O.
