I think TS would be a major point in playing this game.

Why not? You do realize that this section of the forums is called "Off-Topic & the Absurd" for a reason right?

Try introducing some humor into your life. You might actually crack a smile once in a while. It might hurt at first, but hey, it might just feel good after awhile.

oh I laugh all the time. I simply didn't get the joke, I mean posting an entire post like that, making all these serious comments about degenerate people using ts, only to claim it was a joke. Seems, pointless.

haha, merry xmas, whoot. yeah

I usually find my clan members are older than I thought.... hearing wife/kids in background etc. Only one person ever turned out to be younger than I thought, and the voice was so high pitched I pissed myself laughing the first time. However he was a good player so hey, why not.

I have also found that in using our team speak server that we have made an other wise tedious process alot less frustrating and time consuming and as he said all of my players thus far are older than at least 20. Some have kids wife etc as well.

Mind

Of course this post in is jest...

Hrm...I can understand you Mind...ppl will do as they may...but, think of it this way--those of you who do become entranced by pixel'd boobage sported by the 40 year old Texan guy (or cyber transexuals as I call them) that TS and the other voice chat proggies are a good way of perhaps, finding out that yer 'hawt gurl' wears tightie whities b4 you fall head over heels

NachtAngel (NOT a CT)

PS That is whatever blows yer proverbial dress up guys...it's the sort of CT that actually will flirt with guys and pretend to be girls

ROFLMAO! I could not have said it better. May I use the Cyber Transexual term. Any papers I write with that term in it will give credit to you or who ever was the first to come up with that.

RE: PS It is true that some times guys will flit with another guy for whatever reason they have. Some may get a sick pleasure knowing that they are playing the other side of the field, and playing it dirty. I see tons of nearly naked elementalists, necros and pretty much all the other races dancing naked in the streets.

I wonder however if some are simply expressing or exploring something that they are hiding for fear of rejection or discrimination. I have found that most if not all people are actually at one time in thier life at least bi and sometimes gay. Then they are repeatedly told that this is sick and wrong. So they stop doing things(not that it actually changes whats inside) like this and have what the modern world has dubbed "a normal sexual desire". Most often if they are gay they hide it from thier families because of fear of rejection. A friend of mine went through this. We had my girlfriend pose as his girlfriend so his dad and mom would not beat the living hell out of him. In this instance no I do not mind a guy flirting with me in the game, it is no big deal and if I can help them in some way to be sexually free and not repressed then again I am totally fine with this.

I don't care if you have a problrm with my logic in jest or otherwise because I am not a sexist or racist jerk.

You are a welcome part of a small minority of players who can claim maturity and not be committing a crime against reason

In the end, who ****ing cares? Play the game, or become a CT activist, or shout scripture into the channels and get ignored with pasison. I don't give two shits further.

Why does every game devolve into political/moral redundancy? It makes the entire scope of human to human online communication seem SOOOO much smaller than it is. Play the GAME, stop Dr. Phill Bumping everything

hmmm why. really you really want to know why all games devolve into moral or political redundency. Well take a look around you if you live in the US. If not take a look at our media we are morally depraved and commiting acts of political powermongering and degenerate money grubbing on a daily basis. Our country is sick and twisted, the whole country. What is considered "normal" here is disgusting. We are a moral and political quagmire. This country has gone way over its own head in pushing its way into other countries business and even the the business of its own citizens. The other counties of the world are sick of us, and want us outta here.

If you don't want to deal with politics and morals then turn your computer off and go hide in your house because these issues are all going on around you and you can either take notice and see what is really going on, or you can remain a sheep and flock with the masses, either way one less person to occupy valuble space that could be used for something greater than our qwn selfish way of life.

The only annoying thing I found was that you have no clue who is talking...but there is a program out there that fixes that now.

So I might use it again.

If you knew me in real life (omg lol), you'd be laughing at yourself

I seriously respect what you said however, the quoted part aside (hehehehe omg ROFLMAOBBQ). I guess what I was trying to say is, people take something like this guild wars, a gift of gaming from some talented people, and make into some kind of crusades reborn. It's a GAME. I understand how in real life (NO CLUE LOL!) people can have arguments/debates/idiocy about gender confusion/buyng your way into whatever ad infinitum.

However, in a pixelated NON-VERSE, which only exists for each of us when the net connection doesn't crap out, trying to prove or disprove the existence of the matrix, for me anway, ruins it. Just play the game is all I am saying. If something bothers about chatters, TURN IT OFF. If someone bothers you in whisper, drag their misshapen lumpy ass into your ignore list. If someone apparently is flaming you on a forum, DON'T REACT. People cause 99% of their own problems, and for the "games" we, as people, like to play.

baaaaa

But it can never truly be achieved, either. Everyone conforms, and everyone differs. You don't prove anyone isn't really non-conformist by showing how they conform, just as you don't prove anyone isn't really conformist by showing how they differ. Either argument would be a false dilemma. In a world with ample grey areas, proving something isn't black doesn't make it white.

Sheriff Lobo · May 10, 2005, 06:24 PM // 18:24

so then...I guess... it makes it grey

you do realize... that I not once mentioned confrmity. Nor did that last post have to do with conformity. I am not a non-conformist, I simply think that what is normal is not necessarily morally or politcally right.

that does not mean non-conformity I am actually not anarchic either I know for a fact that anachy will not work, order must be observed somewhere which means to some degree conformity. Having regimented structure and rules can help the human mind cope with the big scary world. If armageddon gets here who would you rather be running with, a bunch of whacked out anarchs, or an ordered structure of people and resources....

except for one small minor detail that got left out. Not all people especially young people are capable of handling things that way. Some are not able to even explore these thoughts which then are unfulfilled...leading to subconcious acknowledgement as such and unconcious responses to failed desires. Shit happens like this all the time even in the games......oh yea he he forgot about that.......

as for this Dr. Phil......................who the hell is he?

and also this has nothing to do with our personal lives, he he i get into WAY more heated debated than this one.....

You know, its was the psychoanalyst Carl Jung who originally coined the word "introversion." But he was by all accounts one stupid git!

Now Freud, on the other hand, wrote that introversion would be like and internalized libido with which one may satisfy all urges, save copulation itself, through fantasy. Like a withdrawn hysterical girl living in a fantasy, wish-fulfilling imaginary world.

Could not then TeamSpeak bring one's fantasy into conflict with reality?

Actually, I have no real point to make here. I just wanted to say Carl Jung was stupid.

Long live Freud!
