  1. The same thing happened to me. I had 70+ credits before I got hosted... when it said that I was approved for hosting, all the credits disappeared. I just assumed that when you got hosted, all the credits were supposed to be reset. I don't mind all that much, because it doesn't take too long to get the credits back up there (I'm back up past 20 hosting credits right now) but the only thing I didn't like was I wanted to get a nice start on my site, but I had to spend much of that time reading through and replying to the posts. I would have done this anyway, but I was worried that my account would get suspended, because there was no credits left in it. So I got my credits up to about ten and then started really working on my site. Now I've just been reading through the posts a few times a day and replying to the ones I find interesting. I figure so long as I reply to a few posts a day, that will give me plenty to work with if I do need to take some time off (which I undoubtably will have to eventually). Anyways, keep posting and you should have nothing to worry about, but I still wish you the best in getting those extra credits back in your account
  2. Yea, when I first started playing, I had no idea what was going on either. But someone over there directed me to that page, and after reading it I knew a bit more of what was going on. It helps quite a bit by explaining what certain things mean. The rest is just basically playing around with the things, and familiarizing yourself with the different pages in the army system game. It took me a few hours of play time to understand it fairly well, but I think I've gotten the hang of it now If you start playing around with it, I'm sure you'll get the hang of it and find yourself just as addicted as I've become Best of luck to your army!
  3. Yea, I seem to recall somewhere that the first chicken came from an egg that was laid by a bird that wasn't quite a chicken, so the egg must have come first.
  4. Currently, I'm at 23.38 hosting credits... I had plenty to last me for a while, but when I got hosted, they were reset, so I've been working my way back up. Slowly I'm getting there again
  5. That was my understanding of it... I'm not very tech-savvy myself... most of the stuff I read on these boards goes right over my head. There are some boards that do have some nice content on that everyone should be able to reply to. (I think these do count towards your credits as well): - What is? (Some of these are techy, but there's a lot that aren't as well.) http://forums.xisto.com/topic/170-what-is/ - Gaming (There is tons of subforums all about gaming... if you are into that sort of thing. I'm not all that knowledgeable when it comes to that sort of thing lol...) http://forums.xisto.com/topic/157-the-gaming-zone-7gearscom/ - Creativity (If you are creative and like to share your poems or songs or anything like that, this is the place to do it. Or you can reply to other people's creations!) http://forums.xisto.com/topic/131-art-creativity/ - General Talk (Nice range of stuff to talk about in here) http://forums.xisto.com/topic/15-general-talk/ Like I said, I *think* all those places count towards credits, but I'm not positive. If you want to make sure for certain, just leave a post, and then check to see if your credits went up at all. Best of luck to you
  6. I chose all of the above, because you didn't have a "more than five hours" choice. I'm always on my computer... my total was more like each of the choices added together. It's sad I know, but that is my life :(At least I can take comfort in the fact that half that time is spent on work, because it's on my computer for a lot of the time. Plus, when I was in school, it's constantly with me... I'm in a laptop based program, so there's no getting around it
  7. Do you have a dvd burner on your machine? I wanted to burn some of my work to dvd because it holds more, but I only had a dvd player on my machine, so I couldn't burn anything onto dvd.
  8. I just finished my first year of college... and have done very well in it too, so I'm quite happy. It's a two year course, but there might be a third year offered, we're not quite sure yet. I'm hearing mixed things from different instructors.Anyway, I too have noticed the small amount of girls in my course... we started with 31 students, and only 5 of those were girls. I don't mind it so much, especially because the class size is so small. It's nice to get extra 1 on 1 time with the instructors if you aren't understanding something.
  9. Some nice work here. I'm really liking them.My personal favorite is the second one, it could possibly use a little border, and the text is a little blurred, but other than that, I love it. The colours are great, and I really like the effect that was used on the elf.Excellently done!
  10. I'm very happy schools done (for the summer at least) where I am at. I've been out for 3 weeks or so now... and it feels great. Mind you, work just started to slow down as well, so that also makes it that much better!Not that I dislike school either, but it was always moving so fast, it's nice to be able to wake up and not have another assignment due.
  11. I've never seen it... should I? I've just started getting into anime, so my collection is rather limited. And I don't watch it on tv, I prefer to watch the original in Japanese with english subtitles. This way it is the way it was meant to be!
  12. Hey! I tried to find the quotes, and I wasn't able too... I even did a search for files or folders with 'quotes' in the title, but didn't find anything that looked too close to that. Oh well. And I'm using XP Pro too As for the candy canes! Very cool! I got them working and now they are my screen saver. I suppose that means I'll have to get off my computer long enough for it to come on Anyway, thanks for the info!
  13. To find out how man credits you've made up so far, just click the 'General' link in the top navigation. It says in that page how many hosting credits you currently have. So long as you are active, you shouldn't have a problem
  14. Hi Sue! Welcome! This place is great, and so are the people and I think you'll like it here. So keep posting and stay active. I can't wait to hear more from you in these forums.As for the army game... it's completely addictive. Stay away if you want some form of a life lol... j/k.Anyways, have fun!
  15. I work at the library in my college, but there's no time to do school work while I'm there. There's always the fun stuff to do like shelving the books, shelf reading (making sure all the books are in the right order), processing the new books and donations, answering patron questions... anyway, it's a fun job, so I don't mind
  16. Thanks... now I feel smart lol... I'm a college girl. Where I'm from we go to college if we are looking for a trade to get into, while university will get you a degree, but not really train you for anything in particular. Except for becoming a teacher, to train other people. It more leaves the door open for a number of jobs. I didn't choose university because the program I wanted is only offered in college. My sister choose university because she is planning on becoming a teacher. I know about the people thinking college is less credible than university. I hear that a lot from people. (Mostly the university students, because my school consists of two universities and one college). But hey, I'm the one that got a job in my field of work after just one semester (plus I was already working another job on top of that, and maintaining my 4.72/5 GPA) so I think that college is just as important as university, and I definately know I'm not stupid... even though I've only have a diploma.
  17. Hi! Welcome! I'm new to this place too. I think it's great, and I'm so happy that I just happened to stumble my way in here. I'm sure you will like it too! Everyone is so nice and willing to help in anyway they can.So, can't wait to hear more from you Just remember to stay active, which shouldn't be hard because there are always such interesting topics in the forums!
  18. That's the same as me... I had tetris on the original nintendo system, and loved to play it when it still worked (my controllers are broken lol). I also had a tetris-like game that was on the computer which was fun... it had jewels to collect and the layers would move and different things on different levels. It was really fun too. I've never managed to beat any tetris game out there though. Unless you count Dr. Mario, which is sort of like tetris, because I beat that one....
  19. Right now it's this one I'm pretty much always on it! But I do like to go over to MSN games and play on there as well. I'm more into the online games, because they are usually less involved, simpler to learn, and don't take as long to get through the game.
  20. That's true. Where can we find this game? And do they allow for a free trial, because I don't think I'd want to pay out the 20 dollars without testing it out first... anyway, I don't usually do war games, but I might check it out...
  21. Hi! Welcome! I'm just new here too I've been listening to your song that you have up on your website. It's very different than what I listen too normally, but I like it. It's has an interesting sound to it.Best of luck, and we'll probably talk some time here
  22. Very nice work... I like the second one you put up the best out of the three pictures The pattern in the third image, sort of obsures it a bit though.
