Off Topic / Moving to Denver

« on: July 25, 2005, 02:00:17 PM »

I found me a new place in Downtown Denver that is big pimpin and right next to my school. Unfortunately I probably wont have a good internet connection, or more likely one at all so it looks like my online gaming days are over for a while.

Turns out the reason the other place rejected us on credit is because my friends SSN has two other people on it.... A little identity theft never hurt anyone though. One of the other hims has had a couple of run ins with the law.

So starting about thursday, Ill no longer be on the server more than once or twice a month. It saddens(sp?) me.

Peace out Y'all

Off Topic / Am I getting screwed?

« on: July 18, 2005, 08:22:50 PM »

My friend and I were going to move into an apartment in downtown denver, it was pimpin and cheap. Perfect. They said that all you needed was credit with no major bad marks, not a lot of credit.

Today they call me back and say we both failed our credit checks which is bull, because I did that free online credit thing and I have almost perfect credit. Ive never missed a payment on anything.

They said they didnt know why we failed the credit, just that we did. Plenty of employers purposely dont employ army reservists because it is risky with the high deployment rate right now and we can also break leases with no penalty.

are they required to show us what failed us? Any hints/tips?

General / Stuck keys help

« on: June 09, 2005, 12:25:46 AM »

Okay, Ive finally had enough of this. It seems that most of the time that I die as a higher lifeform its because of some stuck keys setting that I cant find. I end up going up, down, left, or right into a wall and unable to get off of it while marines shoot me in the back.

Ive got Xp, its a presario laptop with all the original HP extras still on because I never bothered to reformat. Ive messed with the accessability options and the keyboard settings endlessly and I cant make it go away. My friend has virtually the same computer but he reformated when he got it and he doesnt have the problem.

I also dont have the problem with other games but most other games dont have me holding keys as long. I think it may have happened a few times in Doom 3 as well.

Any ideas? Pls help

Off Topic / I hate the army

« on: June 07, 2005, 04:41:48 PM »

So, I just finished driving all over Denver to get my GI bill activated so that they will pay me for school. Had to do a bunch of useless paperwork and what not. Very annoying. But that wasnt too bad because it means I get paid for nothing.

What got me was when I was driving home and my cell rang with some crazy out of state number. Its my unit saying "Are you ready to leave for PLDC on saturday?" and im all like "OMG WTF HAXORS@!!!" No one ever bothered to tell me.

Now Im going to be in some po dunk town god knows where for three weeks, Ill miss a lot of the lunixmonster tournament(sorry team disorganized), Ill spend my 21st birthday SOMEWHERE and ill have to do pushups on my bum wrist than barely works. and to top it off Ill have to be respectful and professional and listen to morons all while getting up insanely early.

Why did I ever join the army?

Off Topic / I hate hollywood

« on: May 12, 2005, 12:04:19 AM »

Within the last week hollywood has taken one of my favorite books from me, about five hours of my life and fourteen dollars. :angry:

They ruined my favorite book with Hitch Hikers Guide, and tonight they managed to screw up a medievel sword fighting movie.

Is it just me or are movies getting worse?

General / What do I do wrong as Comm?

« on: April 30, 2005, 01:59:49 PM »

Im not asking for comming tips in general, just what i screw up, if youve noticed anything. I figure ive been comming on lm long enough for people to have noticed my weaknesses and since im on vacation and cant play, ill post instead. Ive got all the important hot keys memorized, and i understand everything pretty well i think.
The only problem i know that i have is that im not mean, and rarely comm rage so non-regs tend not to listen.

Any help would be greatly appreciated
