  1. Something tells me it will... and I think your question is really: when will it come back? But you know you don;t want to ask this because the answer has been stated 100 times. Thats just a stab in the dark
  2. They are fast.. but can they maneuver quick? Lol im still going for the run and climb method - cause theres no way in heck im playin dead. These videos are interesting...
  3. Aswel.. considering what you get with the car, there aren't too expensive. The stereo, as I remember, is fairly nice. Don't you get a 8" stock sub in the back? (googles...) 7 speaker 350 watt system that is said to produce excellent sound. Check the video at cNet. for an interesting review. http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/
  4. I've never been successful with forums... then again I was also young when I used forums and since I've realized that you need a larger amount of visitors before you can introduce forums to your site. I think this is the best way of doing it.As they say.. forums are a way for your USERS to communicate - however if you dont have many users then there is no perk in signing up for your forums when there are larger, more active, better forums else where.
  5. Yea im worried my account will be closed... I've had it for a while and i've used it on and off. I think I'm going to stick with adbrite. With adsense ive gone through quite a few sites when I was a beginner, and I haven't used it with any of my more popular sites i've worked on. So, I think I will through the ads up for a week or so just to get the payut amount and see if I ever get a cheque from them. Already at $80.
  6. Right now, Im focused on the read speeds...AMD Athlon 1800+//768mb ram//9200 radeon @ 128mb//60GB IDE HDD//Windows XP Pro SP2I've ran Nero CD-DVD Speed and got 8x read speed for a disc that supports up to 40x... Considering my DVD-ROM also supports up to 40x for a CD-R... The drive reads the discs so slow, regular CD's skip. I have the latest firmware (MYS6). Any ideas on what would be happening?
  7. Nah, we seen two thugs run up on the bookstore... and one went in.. and came out with a Harry Potter book. It was definately halarious to see that.
  8. lol I definately agree with you there. That sounds like the best idea... hopefully ya dont pick up any charges though.
  9. I believe it has to do with the difference the browsers read and interpret CSS. CSS is a language used to modify the apperance of web elements such as fonts, paragraphs, tables, ect. There is a problem with the way FF and IE read the "padding" command. Now depending what browser the CSS coder used... the results may vary with overlap or thinker borders/gaps. I first found this out when I was working on 9block.789mb.com - if you view the site in Ie and FF, it looks different. I coded it in FF tho, so its optimized for FF (I never finished the site, or plan on it.). With a little research on google, i've found they have called this the IE Box Model Problem... and it is a mistake on IE's part - not FF's. You can read more here: http://css-discuss.incutio.com/wiki/Box_Model_Hack
  10. As nirmal said with the sub forums.. perhaps under systems... stick to Nitendo, Sony, Microsoft, PC, Others... that would cut it down from 11 to 4... merge suggestions and help... and I think youd be off to a good start. Hopefully you can get some active members posting and get some good posts. Perhaos ill come back to you in the future for an affiliate with the site im workin on... :DAnd the template works fine... keep it simple.
  11. With all that being said... who benefits (solely) from Xisto... do you, the admin, reap all the profits, or do the admins get a pay roll?And if you dont mind me asking (you dont have to answer)... what are the Xisto profits ranging monthly?
  12. lol good stuff. Ive heard that before... more or less anyway. In all honesty, I actually think I do lie for the good of others, while it does relfect on me, it generally is to spare feelings. but we've seen so many times on corny sit coms, sparin feelings only makes things worse in the end. lol
  13. Wait, your 23 years old and cant remember your home? It wasn't that long ago! I still live at my "childhood home" seeing as im 17 (18 next month), I moved here with my parents/brother when I was one year old (almost 17 years ago) and we haven't left yet. Although we have upgraded the house some what, redecorated alot, and my brother has moved out. Seen alot of neighbors come and go, but its a nice area.
  14. I haven't been able to play AA for some time now because the system requirements keep getting worse and worse. straight from their FAQ... these are the minimum requirements for version 2.8.1 My computer specs... Radeon 9200 se 128mb video card... so my graphics meet minimum. AMD Athlon 1800+ (1.53ghz)... so my processor is almost a Ghz too slow. Winodws XP Profession SP2... good to go. 768mb Ram... good to go. 6.03GB currently free... good to go. DVD-Rom... good to go (id download anyway) DirectX9... good to go. "100% Compatible DirectX 9.0 soundcard"?... doubt it, seeing its a Sis700 series built in... but probably shouldn't matter. Decent internet connection... So other than my processor being too slow, I find this completely unfair. Now, lets speak of upgrading my processor... I would have to buy another AMD Socket-A processor, so I don't have to replace my mainboard (motherboard)... after a good 10 minuets searching google for processors that would fit the socket A/462 Pin, I came short of anything. It must be obsolete? So AA will have to wait until I get a new PC
  15. url worked for me... but is that a referal url? Looks good to me, ima stick with earning towards Xisto's free domain registration. I figure by the time I even have my website ready to promote, I'll probably have a free domain. lol Alot of webhosts also offer a free domain with their web host service. Even with cheap web hosting plans. Definately look into that before you buy a domain... because instead of registering a domain name at $6.95 a month... you can get hosting at $4.95 a month and get a free domain.
  16. I have heard of it, seen it, and now that ive gone to the website, it loos like the simpsons recently did an episode on t. over 100,000 players are playing right now, and the game looks dumb as hell. I would rather see you all playing AA... its definately better and free even though i dont play.
  17. Terminator... sega genesis... never beat it to this day.James Bond... N64... The Aztec mission was impossible!Im generally pretty good at video games. I don't play them as much as when i was younger so Im not up to date or anything. Basically Online FPS (counter-strike) and I would play America's Army if my computer meet the specs... Imma go fix my bios right now seeing as its registering at 1150mhz instead of 1800+ (1.53ghz)... lol wow thats off topic.
  18. I am voting saint micheal mainly because of the theme. truefusion had a close call, but the font really killed it for me. Mojo mans didnt really work for me, it was alright. Anyway I liked SM's font, placement, fade, grime... I think the underline of gears of war is on a higher layer then the font, and would rather see the font ontop of the underline. But overall SM's is the best in my opinion. Playgrounds is startin to get my attention the more i look at it. It seems less conventional.
  19. Thats sick.. you have the in dash comp screen there? My buddy's pops just got an acura... and the interior is just like that honda. I like how the speedomter is displayed, and the seats are so comfortable. Im not a fan of the exterior design... but its not bad. Definately some good reviews on the new civic aswell.. Post us some good new car driving stories soon.edit:: my buddies seats were leather... maybe fake, so i unno how comfortable your are... but the buckets look nice.
  20. lol I can say my first website was much better... while simplier... better. I googled uly websites and they have an ugly website directory... http://thebiguglywebsite.com/
  21. I slowly learned using w3schools. I would use other sources/code and add them together and modify them. Search for the code for what I wanted to do... and just slowly learn from that. I still don't know too much CSS, but its fairly simple. Every page I design now, I use CSS tables... usually div positioning.
  22. I am surprised you missed more common ones like Joomla and Xoops, both free CMS and very versatile with thousands of templates and hundreds of addons. I am currently using a CMS for the first time and I am having alot of problems with it Its running smoothly, but the template I have right now isnt very versatile so im restricted to some things.
  23. Lol. I would find a bar or pub, have some drinks/food and relax. Enjoy it as it would be a story for another day. Hopefully meet some english speaking friends and party all night.I think this topic would be more interesting if the question was..."What would you do if you were lost in a non-english speaking country, in a city of which name you couldn't pronounce, and you only had roughly twenty dollars."Answer: Hope for the best.
  24. Well, hopefully you didnt enter your paypal password or credit card number. If it brought you to the "Paypal" site, you might have been phished. You should look into Phishing and protection against it.
  25. Iwould love to see MSN, YIM, and AIM be beat out by a new Google type. But Gmail tends to be a service for tech savvy users as not alot of regular email checking, web browsing MSNer's know about gmail. I know there are only a few of my friends that have a gmail account, the only other gmail accounts I see our usually tech savvy's.
