  1. I definitely agree with you. Saddam more than deserved the execution due to the fact that he commited genocide which included killing approximately 180 Muslims of the Shiite sect. Not only that, but he was a very bad man. I heard from a source that once his son in law turned against him, Saddam threatened to kill him, so he fled to Jordan. Later, Saddam offerered his son in law to come back to Iraq, promising no harm. When he came, Saddam killed him. That example there shows what kind of person Saddam was, thus clarifying the point that he deserved what he got stronger. To get back to what Graffiti said, yes, i agree. The United States is certainly more powerful than it needs to be and quite frankly, George Bush is abusing this power to make his crimes seem normal.
  2. Hmm well there are several theories on causes of Crohn's disease but none have been proven. I think i would go with the most popular theory, in which the body's immune system reacts abnormally in people with the disease, mistaking bacteria, foods, and other substances for being foreign. The immune system's response is to attack these invaders. During this process, white blood cells accumulate in the lining of the intestines, producing chronic inflammation, which leads to ulcerations and bowel injury.But this is just my opinion along with many others. The fact is that this disease is caused by these main factors: the genes the patient has inherited, the immune system itself, and the environment.I think the proper medical treatment for this disease would include drugs, nutrition supplements, surgery, or a combination of these options.
  3. Im impressed. That was a very good tutorial on forums and i used it to re-create my clan forum in a whole new way and im sure its a big improvement to my community. Again, thanks for the tutorial.
  4. Well, it was a great tutorial and i found it a very useful addition to my learning of programming. There were a few minor improvements in store, which SP Rao has stated for me.All in all a good tutorial, and i await the next part with great anticipation
  5. Linux and Mac are good in their own ways, but i would definitely go for the Windows Operating System. This is mainly because windows is more professional and user friendly, meaning it is easier to use in general. Linux is better than windows, however, in things such as multi-tasking, and MAC is better for publishing purposes, but i would recommend windows above all.
  6. I would definitely go for the PS3 rather than the XBOX 360, mainly because its games will be much better. I have played on the 360, and although it had very stunning graphics, the gameplay just was not for me. Also, theres the blue ray disc, which, hands down, owns the 360 hard disk. In addition, the PS3 is a much more powerful console than the 360 (it can do 3.2 somthing terraflops).Overall, the PS3 is definitely better than the 360 in many ways. Don't waste your time buying a 360 over a PS3.
  7. There are many different types of paypal buttons, you can choose which one will be most suitable for your site. They can all be found at the paypal website of course.
  8. I agree, the US government needs to aim there money spending on more scientific research equipment. As technology is advancing at a higher rate as time progresses, it would require less effort to upgrade the telescope now than before, as wellingtonboots stated. Also, it would be nice to discover new things out there in space, and to get a clearer picture of what we know already. Conclusion: Should the Hubble Space Telescope undergo an Upgrade? - YES
  9. With any operating system, you should NEVER try the beta, as im sure you will have a bad experience wtih it. I would wait till all the bugs are fixed before i buy a new OS. In the case of Vista, it is a very good operating system especially in the terms of better graphics and speed. To neo, in my opinion your specs are expected to have problems running with Vista, especially with a beta version. Keep with XP for a while till you get a better computer, then wait a year or so till Vista's bugs are fixed, then i guarantee your computer will be at its optimum performance.
  10. (getting back on topic..)Flight Simulator was always a great game. FS X was around 1GB and i recommend it to anyone following the FS series. This game once inspired me to become a pilot (i know how to fly), but other sources convinced me otherwise.
  11. When dealing with viruses, i would certainly recommend norton internet security 2007, because not only does it protect you from the latest viruses, but it also protects you from phishing sites, hackers, worms, and more. I have tried many other anti-virus softwares, and found norton better because with ones such as NOD32, AdAware or SpyBot, they found my computer clean of viruses. When i scanned my system with noron, six security risks and a deadly virus were found and instantly removed. Norton, without a doubt, is the best computer security program in every way.
  12. Ok, i made this short tutorial on how to start a dedicated server in counter-strike. Hope everyone finds it useful. Required software: Steam Counter-Strike 1.6 / Condition Zero Dedicated Server (Found in Steam > Tools) First, you haave to make sure ur router is configured with all hlds ports forwarded to your ip address. To access your router, you type the default gateway address (E.g. 192.168.1.1) in internet explorer and enter your details when prompted. Then navigate your way till you find a section called 'port range forwarding', usually found in 'applications and gaming'. Once there, add an entry 'hlds'. In the port range, from start to end, put 27015 (assuming thats the port ur using), in protocol, select 'Both', in IP address, put ur ip , and tick 'Enable' *NOTE* Only do this step if you are experiencing problems with server detection. Next, you have to install the latest version of AMX Mod X, found in http://www.amxmodx.org/. You can access your server mods in C:\Program Files\Valve\Steam\SteamApps\*YourAccountName*\dedicated server\cstrike\addons (It should be there if AMXX was installed correctly). Ok, from there its up to you which mods you install on ur server. If you want deathmatch, for example, click the plugins link on the AMX mod X website, navigate your way to the mod, and follow its installation instructions. A typical mod installation would involve excracting the plugin file, compiling it, then adding a line in the plugins.ini file, found in the configs folder. If you need further information or are experiencing problems, feel free to PM me.
  13. My computer specifications are:System: Microsoft Windows XP Professional SP 2Make: Dell OPTIPLEX GX280PentiumĀ® 4CPU: 3.40 GHzRAM: 1.00 GB DDRHard Drive: 160GB SATAGraphics card: Intel express chipset family
  14. Well, i've been trying to decide which game is better, tekken, or mortal kombat. I'm not specifying any game in particular, im just talking about the whole series. In my opinion, the characters in mortal kombat are much better than tekken, as they always repeat. However, the fighting system of tekken owns the one of mortal kombat. Anyone got any ideas on a tiebreaker?
  15. Counterstrike 1.6 is extremely cheap now on steam, its about 9 dollars. And believe me, its worth every cent. This is my no.1 game, the very reason i came to Xisto is so i can host my counter-strike clan website (i already have the html and need to add more features).Overall, a great game, i would highly recommend it above source, even though the graphics are worse, the servers, gameplay and mods are much better.
  16. Yes, i must agree on this, World Of Warcraft is hands down the best MMORPG ever. The graphics, gameplay, features, and new constant additions added all outline a great online game. However, like most MMORPG's, it is addictive and takes you away from your own life. I have experienced lower grades at high school because of this game and i quit it. I would advise everyone not to play this game unless you really feel you have good self control.
  17. Although Halo 2 has excellent gameplay features, i would definitely go with Half-Life 2. One of the greatest FPS games out there, with incredible graphics, gameplay, and story (I am following all half life games). The only disadvantage to half life 2 is that you need a very good graphics card (which I, unfortunately, don't have).
  18. In my opinion, both of these games are a big waste of valuable time, especially runescape, and i just cannot believe i wasted my time on memerbship and leveling to 53, but i m glad i quit it December 2003.But i would go with MapleStory, mainly for the reasons OmegasGiev just stated, and also because Runescape is an utter ******** game.
  19. Age of Empires 3 and Age of Mythology are both similar and different in their own ways. Personally, i prefer Age of Empires because it's more realistic in terms of fighting in combat, which creates a good effect. Age of Mythology, in my opinion, is also quite effective, with the god powers and everything, but it is slightly more childish than AOE.Simply put, I prefer Age of Empires over Age of Mythology due to its realisticness and better story. Other people may have different opinions, but this is just mine.
  20. My resolution is to continue with my guitar playing and never stop till im famous :)Anway, a healthy, prosperous happy new year to all, im glad i just joined this great host at the new year Everyone have a great 07
  21. Omg i totally agree this game is a total waste of valuable time, i am glad i quit december 2003 and i simply cannot believe i wasted my money and time on membership and leveling to 53.To all current runescape players = Get A Life. If you wanna play a real MMORPG, play world of warcraft (although in my opinion its annoyingly addictive and takes you out of your life too).
  22. Yes, a healthy, prosperous, happy new year to all of the Xisto community. Hope no one gets too drunk And im glad i just joined on the new year :DHave a great 2007 all, may this year kick the last ones *bottom*
  23. To Luk4ward, as shadowx previously stated, you recieved a fatal error because the function used is not supported by your current php version. I suggest you update your php or read the documentation for your current version.And to lairz, the creator of this tutorial, thanks, this method of showing FPS game statistics on a webpage is useful. I have also submitted another method, using psychostats, which is pretty similar to VSP stats. For more info, see my 'How to set up psychostats' thread (i think there are 2 because i accidentally resubmitted it )
  24. Notice from KuBi: Source: http://www.mayoclinic.org/healthy-lifestyle/fitness/in-depth/fitness/art-20048269 ; warning issued.
