Runescape, a poor substitute for LIFEI Really Hate RunescapeI spent about a year in the game...Off and on, mostly on weekends. And some weekends were definitely excessive. I got to mid 60's in "melee" straight across the board, and 40's or 50's in most everything else (except for a handful of REALLY boring things like construction and so on). I stopped at a combat level (I think this is right) of 82 and a total level of 1016. Not great, but you can understand I at least know the game. At some point a while back, I completely lost it. I had this moment when I realized the game was less interesting than almost ANYTHING else I could be doing at the time. I mean it! Taking a shower, cleaning out my car, going on a bike ride=all more exciting than RUNESCAPE! I realized that it wasn't just the wasted time. Somehow, I had begun to expect less and less of the game, and it continually delivered just that. Initially, it was the players themselves that kept me coming back. In my experience, there were a few golden ones. And I loved playing the game with them. Unfortunately, there were countless others that only seemed to want to "level up," then thumb their (likely pimple-ridden) noses at lower-level "noobs." That really was disheartening. Then there was just the game itself. The game, I finally realized, has SO little to offer...A minimal world to explore, and a series of adventures really only designed to make you stay in an a patently boring game (this one has a requirement of 60 cooking and 65 smithing, etc., so guess what? more time doing more boring crap!). Truly, RS has not progressed much beyond the old text-based story adventure games hat took 8 3-1/2" floppies to complete. And at least those had an eventual goal--they were something you could eventually finish! Let me just say that if EVER I pick up another online game, I will at least set the bar at it being MORE INTERESTING THAN MY EVERY DAY LIFE. RS is meant for people who will put up with much and have little asked of them. RS holds a carrot just out of arm's reach (this skill mastery, this task being finished) so they will keep coming back and feeding the RS money goblins. Once you realize that, something inside you will tip over, and the glass will be permanently emptied. If you're lucky, you'll start making up the time you've invested in that turd of a game by doing something constructive. Almost anything will be more edifying than the time-stealer known as Runescape. Try sewing, for God's sake. At least when you sit on your butt 14 hours a day playing online video games again, you'll have the knowledge to let out the hem on your pants yourself! Thanks for letting me RANT. -reply by Todd

Please help us with our myspace background issuesWhat Is The Best Size To Make A Background In Photoshop?Hello All, We read everything on this page and tried to fix this issue but it just won't work.

Problem is that most browsers / pcs cut off the image on the left side and only one of us is displayed. Can you please help us fixing this? Thanks so much in advance.

the different between love and crushDifference Between Love And CrushFor me,,ahm,,,the difference between love and crush is this, when we talk about crush it's only an admiration or an appreciation for somebody else you like her/him maybe bec. He or she is attractive to you...And maybe because you like her because that person is talented...But when we talk about love it is a feeling that something you cannot explain you will be happy if you will see him/her you will feel complete if you will be with him..Love is a feeling that you can do everything just for your love ones...You will feel sad if she is not feeling good...Love can makes you more happier in each day,you will be happy if he/she will fell great"Love is an acceptance you are willing to accept the person whom you loved no matter what she is or who she is and that's love"...-reply by cindy

I Like ProPayhttp://www.propay.com/ - Accept Credit CardsI've always like propay. I've never had a problem with my transactions (I sell automotive related stuff), and never had them hold my funds. I think if you do suspicious things, then they scrutinize your account. But nowhere as bad as paypal. I use https://payment.secure-ehost.com/control_panel/login.php?aff=propaycartlite for my website shopping cart, so I can payment online in real time, not have to send them an email invoice. I'm not big, and I didn't want to use paypal as my customers seem to hate it. All that cross selling. All and all, I've been pleased. The problem with online forums that talk about propay is you seem to only get those who have had a bad experience. A big company always has a few disgruntled customers.

using my uploaded images Securing Upload Directoryplease tell me if I am on the right track. I am busy with my website that allows members to upload a car image. I mange to upload these very well using php which stores it in my host directory called images. Its there and I only see numbers wen I open them, is there another script to retrieve this to my c: files, AFTER they are uploaded..This is what I wanna do..Save thes to a database. On my website page there is a block for each car. I then need to upload this to a block. And then have a search button for eg; ford etc.. Is this possible or am I doing it all wrong. The site is up and running with no actual cars cos they all on my host and I dnt know how to get it out of there, sorry I am not a developer or a programmer. I have done this with trial and error. I dnt know if I am allowed to mention the site address ..So someone can check it out and give me some tips ... -question by shabeer

Pessimistic locking of Records eliminated from vb.net as it uses disconnected data architectureVB.NET: MS-Access Interaction Tutorial (Part I)Hi As ADO.NET uses disconnected data architecture we cannot implement Pessimistic Locking of the records, how can we handle the situations where a user expects successful edition of the records. For example Train ticket booking system, there might be many users viewing the same train seats and there is high chance of 1 seat being allotted to many passengers. How to handle this kind of situation…please give me the solution to handle this kind of situations…. Thank You -question by Naseer

currently in week 7 of P90x - awesome!!!P90x Muscle Confusion Workout RegimentI am currently in week 7, phase 2, of P90x and it is awesome! Yes it is hard, and it requires commitment to both the workouts 6 days per week AND the nutrition plan (need to eat clean for better results, as it wouldn't make much sense to work out THIS hard and ruin it by eating a bunch of crap), but is sooooo worth it. My first 30 days I gained lean muscle and lost 4 solid lbs of body fat and 2 inches off my hips and a .25 inch off each thigh. Anyone interested in bettering their state of fitness and health with a dramatic overhaul, try this program. If you think you need something to work up to this program, try one of the earlier ones like P90 or another Beachbody program first, then go for it! Don't be lazy, be lean and Bring it! ~Shell -reply by Shell

Faith Is Our Free Therapy Session!!!Keeping Faith In Times Of Trouble?Replying to wild20,36352,247709]Great job on this article! It will bless everyone who reads it. And if one fellow christian was getting weak before an obstacle, this will be a great reminder to him/her. God bless you and keep you strong. The usage of scripture is "totally" appropriate. It gives more power and credibility to your message. What really matters is what God's words are. Our own understanding can be misleading sometimes, but knowing what God's word is for a certain topic is more than uplifting. We believe that the Word is TRUE. Omitting it, will be wandering away from the truth. Faith is definitely our free therapy session and a way for us to maintain good health in the middle of much adversity and stress. To God be the glory forever. Amen!-reply by Rose

There is a natural product out there that I've used for a couple of years on sunburn and house-hold burns. It's called Maui Aui... Cute eh? It has Aloe but goes way beyond that. It has analgesic herbs to relieve the pain and herbs to relieve the itch that always follows sunburn. It also has herbs to speed up the healing of the skin and tropical oils to seal in moisture and aid in skin cell generation. It's really nice and it's a spray, so it feels good when you spray it on. Nice and cooling. I got it at a web site for nature's rite http://www.mynaturesrite.com/; It's worth taking a bottle on vacation with you. I always bring a bottle when we take the kids to the lake for the weekend.

I'm not sure about all this kind of stuff and what not I guess I'm only 17 at the moment but... Ive been in a relationship for 14 months with this girl then we broke up, And now I'm involved with a new girl whom ive been dating for 5 months now, all I can say is u can never learn enough about "being a good boyrfiend"although theres no secret answer in becoming one, You just have to live out day by day being the best you can and at the end of the day thats alll that really matters, because lets face it if your honestly trying 110% to be a "good boyfriend" and theres no positive changes in your relationship id go re-evaulate stuff. But if your still trying to figure out heres some tips ive learned over the year and months ive been in a relationship:P1)give her her space!..Over crowding is one problem I did have :|2)ignoring her to try get her attention doesnt work..|:3)don't be jealous about her guy friends, coz thats what they just are friends..4)compliments do go far .5)if you want you and her to get along, your going going to have to get along with her friends, or if not don't be rude to them and just smile and say hi.6)first impressions do last! so make a good impression when meeting family members or people who are important to her.7)Never ever ever! take your anger out on her ever!..Stupid idea.8)heres a no brainer..Don't flirt with other girls or try getting her jealous to get more attention:|9)Random acts of genorosity is good, eg: Presents, but they don't have to be a pandora bracelet or I-pods lol they can be hand written or what not they'll appreciate whatever it is..Its the thought that really counts .10)Reminde them occasionally how much they really do mean to you don't be all dropping the "l" word if you's have been dating like a week. Only say the 3 lil words when you really do mean them.11) Be your self can't stress that enough if u try and go impressing her by showing of its stupid its you who she fell inlove with youve already won duh? so why bother trying to show?.That's all I know and experienced over my time hope that helps -reply by John Star

Lighter colored eyes are more attractive in general because darker eyes are common. The gene for dark eyes is dominant so most people will have darker eyes. It is dominant because by having darker eyes you afford protection from the Sun as the darker pigments will absorb more light. It's similar to the idea that darker people have more pigments so that they afford protection from the Sun. So, this is evident by the appearance of Europeans compared with the appearance of Africans or Indians for example. However, our evolution has programmed us to always look for the greatest possible variation so that the species can develop and become more complex and thereby afford a greater variety of genes which will protect us from potential danger. So, because lighter eyes are rare and they have a striking appearance generally they are considered more attractive. But, that's not to say darker eyes are not just as attractive. I am sure that many have seen people with very very very dark eyes - like almost black - and these eyes have just as stunning an appearance as light eyes in that they can stop you in your tracts and phase you to some level lol. Here it is the same idea - because it's something different our mind is programmed to be attracted to it. With mixed people you get very interesting colours due to the complex variation in their genes. Many mixed people will have green/grey/blue eyes and it is well known that many mixed people are considered to be very very attractive (e.G. Nicole Scherzinger, Cassie, and more that I cant think of right away). A good example of attractive looking mixed people are the latino population. Latina girls = fine lol. Anyway, that's what I have been able to work out from the stuff I have studied but everyone has their own personal preference - I have found drak eyes and light eyes just as attractive but sometimes when I do see very very very light eyes it really stuns me but equally so do really really really dark eyes. -reply by scientist

I'm amazed at the lack of knowledge expressed by people as I googled what was meant by "A World Without Religion". Without Christ everyone would be hopelessly and helplessly lost. By lost? Yes, I mean bound for Hell. Look folks...There is only two places available to spend eternity; Heaven or Hell. I'm convinced you guys wouldn't like Hell, but you have to know Christ to go to Heaven, and remarks like "the world would be a better place without religion" expresses a lack of knowldge of Jesus Christ. I recommend you don't take this truth lightly because you will eventually give account of your foolishness. I repeat Heaven or Hell is your choice. I am not interested in arguments from anyone that doesn't believe in Christ, so for you who are so inclined...Don't bother to indulge. BUT if any reader is interested in information about knowing Christ, I warmly invite you to reply.

Not much to add, but...Pro Tools Or Logic 8?Most of what has already been said is true, as I have both programs. I absolutely love the ease and intuitive nature of Logic Pro 8 vs. Pro Tools (Took me nearly two days of registering and activating crap-o-la for Pro Tools, and to find out not all of the "added bonus stuff" works. BFD still wont work!) The sounds in Logic are beautiful and to a trained ear, very close to being stellar compared to the Pro Tools stuff, which sounds very hard and bright, no warmth. I really don't like the industry standard argument, because Logic can be used correctly to provide just as good if not better results than PT. A lot of people have forgotten that not to long ago, when artists went in to record, there were no such things like this and had to be able to PERFORM the song flawlessly and REPEATEDLY until the right vibe, sound and take was captured. Todays artists have become horribly lazy and the music today has suffered to no end. There will never be another Beatles. The greatest thing you can learn and instill into yourself is becoming as good a musician as you can be, learning how to make the programs work with you, not for you. Use them as tools, not super glue and duct tape to fix bad vocals or crappy guitar parts. Go, young musicians and artists, into the jungleland and prevail mighty and bold, conquering the world with new ideas, fresh bright and glorious! -reply by johnerockstar

GO FOR IT GIRL!!!In Love With A Best FriendWhat's stopping you girl? If he feels the same way about you go for it... When you love someone you give it your all and jump head first, no matter the consequences. I am in the same position... Here's my quote of the day... After a lot of thinking and considering my options I came down to this.. "LIFE IS ALL ABOUT A LEARNING EXPERIENCE... YOU WILL NEVER FULLY UNDERSTAND WHAT YOU LEARNED UNLESS YOU FOLLOW THROUGH WITH THE LESSON..." If your worried about hurting the other girls feelings, don't be... If he feels this way about you then he doesnt need to be with her and your actually doing her a favor so she can find happiness of her own.. -reply by rachel
