  1. There are always people who will go off about religion. Just because you get mad at them, doesnt mean you have get made at everyone who is an atheist, just because they are different to you. Im an atheist, and in the first post I was told to shut up because I dont know everything. I dont believe I said anything to you... Dont generalize. There are always people, religious or not, who will act like this. The majority of people don't anyway.
  2. Haha, i hadnt seen that one before. Did I hear doom sounds on that? I'm sure I heard the rocket launcher from doom. And I think it had the same explosion animation. I think I saw the one on youtube: http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/It has other ones similar to the first one in the related videos part.
  3. When you get to 0 on your hosting credits, It thought that is when they will go automatically to -4.00. Because it says to restore your hosting account, you need to have 4 credits to Un-suspend your account, and a user is un-suspended when they have more than three hosting credits(Look at DeM0nFiRe's picture in the first post). So isnt that why they go to negative four? Anyway, I always found I get in the positives with one post after this happens(Which was only a couple of times )
  4. I've been waiting for this game for ages. I've seen most of those trailers already. The new characters look awsome! Multiplayer is the best.
  5. Sorry for the late reply. I have been a bit inactive lately. Thank you all for the replies, I managed to fix this problem. A moderator can close this topic now. Thanks again for the help.
  6. So if you are indexed by Google, you can manage to retrieve copies of your database? I didnt know about the google cache. Did you have to contact google directly to get your posts back? I wonder if this works for forums also. I had lost a database from my forum and I had to start all over again. I lost all my active members and posts. I was also wondering, how do you get indexed? I always though it was the more links, or traffic going through your site, the better google picks it up. Is that right?
  7. I liked the Sega Genesis the most. It provided 'arcade like' graphics back when that was impressive. Beyond that it would be the Dreamcast. I am also a Sega fanboy somewhat. I've had a lot of systems and appreciated every one of them. Currently my favorite system is the Wii because it is so easy to get people to play it. PC has had some issues with the lack of variety and the cost of playing current games on it. However PCs always are on the bleeding edge of technology and when it comes to online gaming, nothing beats the PC.
  8. The main thing for me would be how the site looks, which is one of the more obvious answers. But I also aim to make the site as quick as possible. No body likes waiting for ever for a site to load. Has anyone noticed how fast the Xisto.com site loads?
  9. I found this tutorial on Invisionize, and remembered this topic. Perhaps it can help. It says it stops moderators from warning and unwarning themselves. http://forums.invisionize.com/index.php?aurial&id=619
  10. Yeah, sorry about that. Im sure i edited my first post and removed that space... sorry about that.
  11. I don't usually skip class, but lately I have been. I only skip class when I consider the reason I am skipping class to be more worth while than going to class. I never skip class because I cant be bothered doing work. If i couldnt be bothered, i would goto class and do nothing. I skip class sometimes with my girlfriend. I think shes a bad influence on me actually. Oh well.
  12. For me, she always goes clockwise. So that must mean im a logical person. Does this test really work?
  13. I think that playing video games does make the player violent. It is a form of media, and the medias number one job is to brainwash us. I think as children when we are still growing up and learning how to behave, and whats acceptable and whats not, then when we are exposed to violence we too become violent, or mimic what happens around us. Its a bit like domestic violence. If a child is abused by their parents growing up, it is likely that child will abuse their children. It is similar with video games as we are exposed to violence. I think it does not have much or any affect on adults.
  14. I would think that the US has higher security. This story really is worrying though. They make you think it's impossible to sneak something like a gun onto a plane. Perhaps they do that so less people try. It makes you think how reliable their security really is, every time you fly somewhere you're at risk.
  15. I use smartFTP to change the permissions of files. Here is a link: https://www.smartftp.com/ This one is pretty easy to use. To CHMOD all you have to do is right-click the file, then click CHMOD.
  16. As much as I enjoy Manga and wish some titles were adapted into Anime, I'm picking Anime. Reason? I like watching the very characters come to life in animation. Also, music, voice acting and everything else that complements Anime makes it a visually-enhanced experience.Manga is much more accessible though. Also, in most cases, Anime tends to divert away from its original Manga counterpart.
  17. I find most of the topics boring, i don't really have that much to say. Although i think that is partly because i'm not the discussion type. I tend not to make gigantic posts, and mostly post for hosting(which i dont even have at the moment). Although there are a couple of topics i come across where i do have a strong opinion, and im interested, and can really discuss things. They are just quite scarce. Thats a very good point. Anyone who cant find any interesting topics should just do this.
  18. I'm a science man myself. I have taken biology classes and learned about evolution and life. I can understand why there are people who are 100% convinced that there is life after death, and there is a god. I have a Christian friend, and his family are strong Christians. I think there are people like him who have parents who are very religious, and grow up with the idea, so anything else is ridiculas really. My friend is in my biology class, and he laughs when the teacher mentions evolution. Its proven science, yet he will not accept it. I'm not say that evolution is proven science, just some of the things we learn and the processes etc. are. You can say that, because anyone how is able to say this will be dead. However I can say that I know that there is not life after death(As my belief). I think this because when i think about there being a God, and compare the thought with the physical world we live in, its makes me think, really? Compare the physical world, what you can feel and see, with the idea of heaven. To a person like me, it makes no sense. This isn't exactly a belief to me, its more just how things are.
  19. This is a constant problem whenever I try sorting my files, suddenly Windows Explorer shuts itself down by calling in Dr. Watson. Then restarts and repeats again after awhile. It doesn't happen all the time, but the crash problem comes frequently and I have no idea how to diagnose the problem. Appreciate the help.If any of this should be of useful info, I'm still using Windows XP Pro Edition SP1 and using IE 6 (not intending to update this because of complaints i get from other people regarding SP 2 and IE 7. The same goes with Vista.)
  20. If you conserve you efforts for other things, you are not doing your best. I think that working smart and not hard will not give the same result. Nothing beats hard work, giving 100%. Although giving 100% is usually near impossible, where working smart is the better thing to do.
  21. Did it come up with a google search? I accidentally put a space in the word javascript, so it would not have worked. I edited the code in the first post, try it again. I'm using the latest version of Firefox, and it works for me. You can do this with any site, but on some sites the images just go out of place. It works well with the google image search though.
  22. I dont smoke, and I never have. When I was living at home, my older brother and parents all smoked, and it was so annoying always breathing in smoke. I hated it, especially all the cigarettes everywhere. I would say these put me off(Well, i dont think i would have started anyway), so im not a smoker, and never will be. So I dont personally understand the addiction. Everyone tries to quit, but they just cant. I dont understand it, but i guess your body comes to depend on it. Only strong minded people are able to quit i suppose. Im glad i never took up smoking.
  23. Does the computer affect your eyesight? Since I started a forum, I've spent a lot more time on the computer, too much time actually. I've notice that my eyesight has started to deteriorate over the past couple of years, could it be the computer? I dont get my eyes checked at all, so i dont know how my eyesight is being affected. I didnt actually think anything like the computer affected your eyesight, and the only that did affect it was time and age. I would spend a lot less time on my computer if my eyesight would get better.
  24. I dont think it will rival other premium data back up services. These services are specifically designed for storing files, where GMail is used for sending files to other people. I think uploading to GMail would be slower because most files that are expected to be uploaded are small, and doesn't it scan the files for viruses before uploading/downloading? It will also be a lot more inconvenient to upload to GMail. The premium services are designed to upload and retrieve files quickly and efficiently. The only advantage I see here is cost, which seems to be the main thing anyway.
  25. I think this could possibly be a good idea for children, where it is the parents decision to get the device installed. This could help with a lot of kidnappings, and lost children. But I dont think its a good idea for adults. We all need our privacy, and there is bound to be incorrect use of the system by someone. I think the best possible use is for criminals on parol. That way they can always be located. Although dont they already have something like that? With this going inside the body though, it would be more efficient.
