General Discussion / Re: Elder scrolls online?

Yes, I get that its an MMO and sometimes franchises don't convert well, but we have to give it a chance. The new star wars game was pretty good.

And lets be honest, you were expecting them to make something like this.

General Discussion / Asteroid Mining

Yes, this is a real thing.

Every space mission has always been for the sake of exploration, and now, we're going to get some profit out of this. Planetary Resources, a name which I find ironic, has plans to create asteroid mining platforms in orbit around Earth. Apparently they're going to mine mini-moons that get caught in Earths orbit. These mini-moons have many rare ores in them, which could create a profit for them. The thing that I am skeptical about is that they're in space. They can't use conveyer belts since there is no gravity. How they manage to get the stuff back to Earth is also an issue. For now, we just have to wait.

My first game ever period would be Zelda: OoT. The first PC game I played was Red Alert 2.

General Discussion / The SCP Foundation.
« on: March 20, 2012, 12:30:10 AM »
I more or less stumbled across this while watching videos on Youtube. Apparently they made a game about this website, or at least about stories on their website. I think that more people should know about this, because its just plain badass. Its like Warehouse 13 mixed in with creepypasta and Freakazoid. Without the fourth wall being torn down, of course.

I don't know why people are suddenly getting worked up over this. This place has always had warlords that use children as soldiers. I think its just a little annoying that it takes a movie like this, which just happened to turn viral, even though its been done before, to make people see.

If you would've watched the whole of the video, you would realize that salt flourides don't need to be kept cool, as much as it needs to be kept dry.

We're eventually going to have to use something other then oil. It has already had a massive impact on our ecosystem. The water levels have already risen. Studies show that water is rising 0.5 milimeters (Correct me on this, I'm not sure its milimeters, but I know that its 0.5 somethings.).

General Discussion / Nuclear Power
« on: March 14, 2012, 06:17:19 PM »
I just wanted to know what people thought about nuclear power, see what they know. I mostly wanted to know because in a few years (This means decades) we may be using this method for producing energy... on the moon.

A downside on this is that the salts need to be kept COMPLETELY dry. Whenever it gets wet, prepare for a toxic shitstorm. HF is bad.

Suggestions / MC2 Server Plugin Suggestions
« on: March 14, 2012, 03:22:57 AM »
1. Factions - All I want for christmas is this very nice plugin

Factions is good because it lets players take control of anti-grief themselves. They create factions, and then they claim land, and in that land they create anything from mining outposts to cities. Admins can customize this plugin in many ways, even making it cost money to claim land, and forcing players to have more members before claiming land.

2. Multi-Verse - Whats better then one world? Two.

Multi-Verse is pretty obvious at what it does. It makes it so the server can have more then one world. Though, I wouldn't recommend having too many, as the entire server starts to lag, no matter how much ram ya got.

3. Runecraft - Whats that? I can't hear you over my sword spitting fire at you.

Runecraft is nothing like Runescape, and if you make any comparisons I will kill you. Runecraft makes it so when you place blocks in certain patterns, they do rather interesting things. Also, coupled with the enchantments in the current minecraft versions, this could make you into a bloody tank.

« on: March 13, 2012, 02:58:47 AM »
I've been having trouble getting my sound card's drivers. Whenver I think I've found it, its the wrong one. Could someone maybe use Teamviewer with me? Or does anyone know some kind of program that finds what I need?

Listen, if you can't open a map, don't waste hours figuring out how to do very basic stuff. You'll just give up when you realize how annoying mapping is.
