  1. Kind of looks like Batman without a cape. Based on the look, I'm assuming he'll be a faster ninja like robocop compared to the old tank like sluggish moving old one.
  2. So... vBulletin finally released vb 4.2 a few months ago and it was finally a fully stable version with many bugs fixed.. so I was going to finally upgrade AC to the newest version after what, 3 years? But just as I'm about to do the work on a few themes and get the ball moving, I see where they announced "vBulletin 5 Connect" and they want people to pre-order it now even tho its in beta and it will eventually be a useable stable product. It took them 3 years to make vb4 a fully stable product, which they will now stop improving because all development will go towards the new version 5. Check out the new demo of vb5: http://www.vbulletin.com/vb5demo/ http://www.vbulletin.com/learn-more/ http://www.vbulletin.com/vb5demo/blogs This looks like shit to me. Seeing as vb 3.x will no longer be getting security upgrades in the near future, we will switch off of this software in the next 6+ months. The entire vbulletin fiasco from before and our failed upgrade that worked like crap a couple years ago really made me dislike this forum software. Its also made me very lazy about even using my own site because of my lack of enthusiasm for a hobby I used to enjoy immensely. Ever since vbulletin sold out to a large corporation with shareholders, its all been about profit first and customers last. They will not get any more of our money. We will most likely switch over to invision power board and focus on using its core products as opposed to using a variety of mods that need their own security patches and upgrades. We might also switch over to a free forum software like phpbb or smf, probably not, but its all up in the air right now. I don't want to shut down our small community as its been a fun time over the many years. But over the past 3 years its really become quite dead as we can all see. I think once I switch us off of vbulletin, I'll have a renewed interest in AC and maybe others will too. So don't expect a large upgrade any time soon. It'll probably happen sometime after tax season next year. I just wanted to share my thoughts on this and let you all know.
  3. You'll end up getting a great cat one of these days.
  4. We had a great party last night. Lots of food and booze.
  5. Wow.. that guy straight up punched that dude in the nuts.
  6. NPR had a good story about this today: http://www.npr.org/2012/08/15/158758286/the-law-and-reality-of-gun-access
  7. The video wouldn't load unless I went to the site.. lmao at the Sarah Mclachlan mock commercial for produce. X'D
  8. Lot of information on that site. I'd like to own a couple guns at some point for target shooting and home defense.
  9. [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fa7oRd3aCFg[/ame] http://www.iwatchstuff.com/2012/07/silent-hill-revelation-3d-trailer-pyrami.php I liked the first movie and I'm really surprised its taken 6 years for them to make a sequel. I've never played any of the games, but apparently this movie is more based on the 3rd game. The trailer looks like it'll be good.
  10. I love ad blocker plus, but I hate it at the same time. lol. I love not getting pop ups or having to view ads online, but then again my own ad revenue has turned to shit on my sites since that addon became more popular years ago.
  11. Those outfits looked like crap. And on top of it, the outfits were made in China. What a nice way to represent the USA.
  12. What did you guys think about the opening ceremony? I thought it was a bit lackluster. I know they wouldn't come close to topping the China opening from the last olympics, but it seemed pretty slow paced. I thought it was hilarious that Prodigy had a brief moment in it with Firestarter. X'D Anyone using the Live Extra app? Its annoying that you have to login with your cable provider to use it.. and its more annoying that it loads a video ad before you can live stream something.. and its downright aggravating that I could only get one event to live stream because once I try to view another it fails to load the next ad, which then fails to load the live stream, and after I try again, I have to force close the app because it has a heart attack. The app is a good idea, but it is horribly executed as far as I'm concerned. And apparently it doesn't even work on the latest version of droid ics.
  13. It could be a regional ad affecting only US people based on IP#. 7!? holy shit! Thats nuts.
  14. I've seen plenty of the annoying ads that play before the video, but I haven't seen any new tabs being opened with ads yet. But I watch more youtube on my phone than on my laptop. If it was opening new tabs, I'd get pretty pissed. I do have firefox with ad block plus with the pop-up addon and it takes care of pretty much all pop up issues.
  15. As long as this superman is nothing like how Dean Cain portrayed him on Lois and Clark, then it might be decent.
  16. Did you get any good presents today?
  17. Yes.. and I hate all the shotguns on gun master.. I can't get a kill worth a damn, but when I have a revolver I'm getting taken out with one shot all the time.

    That top 5 on gun master is the last major hurdle for my assignments. When CQ first came out I got in the top 7 quite a few times, but I never cared for that game mode. Then that assignment came out and I've only tried to get it a handful of times. Have you had any luck with the weapon camo assignments? I got my L96 350 meter headshot on my brother. 350 meters is a pain in the ass to get. I have 30 hours of gameplay with recon and I've only gotten a headshot over 300 maybe 5 times. So after I got a headshot of 315 I said to hell with it, we jumped on opposite teams and we headshotted each other. X'D

  18. Thats a horrible trailer. It didn't show anything really.. \ And I hope its not another origin movie. Everyone should know by now who the hell superman is. They should start the movie off with superman kicking ass and have it be a 2 hour movie of awesome action with no need for boring talking scenes.. just fighting.
  19. [ame] [/ame]Start at the 3:00 minute mark. lol. X'D
  20. Lmao! X'D That EOD bot kill was a bit challenging. I got it on a round of tdm. Someone left a resupply kit in some bushes, so i proned on it and kept getting my eod bots resupplied as they were destroyed. lol. I kept sending out eod bots and i finally got the kill by sneeking up on a guy, torched him.. he ran and turned around as i slowly brought my eod bot towards him with the torch blazing. Those damn bots go so fast, I had to creep up on him. It was hilarious, he took 3 shots at my bot with a shotgun and missed each time and my torch finished him off. X'D

    Whats really funny is that someone got an eod bot kill on me on kharg island on a round of conquest. I was in a tank taking fire from some rpg guy. Killed him, and then my hit points started dropping fast. Nothing was on my proximity scan and I blew up before I could jump out. I got killed by the damn EOD bot while in a tank. :P

  21. I didn't know about this! I hope its an older sailor moon this time around.
  22. Very cool! I saw the pics you uploaded. Hanging out with River Song must have been fun!
  23. If you have at least a 720 credit score you can qualify for purchasing a vehicle at the best apr no problem. As for lease, I have no idea. Probably 650?
  24. I got a juror's notification letter in the mail and called the phone number every day for a week to find out if I was being called in for selection, but my number was never called on and on the last day the message told me I did not need to call back and that my services would not be needed at this time. Kind of aggravating because I wouldn't know if I would have to go to the courthouse the next day until that night from 6pm and on. I couldn't plan anything for a week. Oh well.
  25. Hmm.. So maybe these portals are the entire cause of aurora borealis.. Very interesting.
