is what Sama said: You needed that detailed of an explanation? I don't even play Hyperspace, but I understood it.

He disabled switching to those freqs to avoid hopping and balancing issues. Nothing spectacular with the top 100 either as it serves as more of a reference than something to be proud about since it is anonymous. Once again, you continue to bear the most constructive poster title.

Wait... what?

What the heck. I never knew that either.

Yeah, I do around 60 WPM, too. But that's because I'm not any sort of typist by profession.

If you're able to monitor currency stability for whatever currency you decide to hold, you may profit. Avoid central banks and keep your money in private banks. Make sure you know what you are doing in terms of your rights and the law (different for each country, obviously). I'm currently holding GBP in my foreign bank account in Sri Lanka, but it's not entirely worth the hassle.

A little over 2/3, actually...

When you say you need DCME/LVZ help does that mean you need a mapper and someone to place LVZ?

If you spend enough time on the computer as other people do by doing similar things then you begin to sense some sort of camaraderie. Same as if you hang out with a certain group of people IRL you form a relationship. Except on the internet it's easy to choose friends with similar interests because they usually congregate in a specific area.

Ah, then I stand corrected.

Done. Nice list we have now.

Starlight would have been perfect for you, but the Oracle server it uses isn't working. And Brain's chatnut site isn't working. So, nothing is working.

You might as well start your own zone, Corey.

Interesting, it also gives a different ship image each time. Get to work on an image generator.

August 2002 Cool, didn't know about that site. Would be fun to have that generate HTML or bbcode so that one can place the player profile as a signature.

No. Freakin'. Way.

Why is it for good? Are there really no other zones on SSCC? And didn't freakmonger just collect donations to keep SSCC up?

That's an incredible story, Polix. I wish the best of condolences to you and your wife's family. Don't worry about SS while you take off, it'll be fine. After all, Samapico is here.

Honestly, that's just part of their new PR budget.

Are you their hired agent? I'm not seeing any feedback from JoWie.

Naw, when EG drops that's when you can say that.

Looks great.

Similar to the question, "How would you react and what would you do split seconds before and after a potentially fatal and accidental car crash [you being the driver of that vehicle]?" You never know what you would actually do until it happens. I'm not asking you to predict the future. Those questions are usually answered commonly by "Well, of course! I love toddlers/my friends and [specifically why, blah blah blah]" Since you've answered it by relating it to a car crash experience, I'm guessing you haven't understood what those experiences mean for someone. They aren't simply experiences that get added onto your life resume -- they help develop your personality. In this sense it means that you develop a broader sense of maturity than the kind of maturity you've expressed here, which I'll guess is you making the "right" decisions over other people your age. This type of thinking makes you less mature from those other people's perspectives since you don't understand where they're coming from and, practically, don't really respect them. This is something along the lines of what Ceiu said first and what D1st0rt also said. You still didn't learn the different levels of maturity because you've locked yourself away and became an introverted spectator. You don't know how wisdom affects better decisions compared to textbook logic because you have no real experience. Posting your feelings and your quite rash decision on an online forum just shows how you want to reason yourself out of every argument that users will post against your decision in order to justify your decision to yourself even more. Did you even consult your parents about this before doing all this "research"? You still haven't gone to any physician or psychiatrist about it, so you're more uninformed than you think.

Seriously. Even after reading this whole thread I'm still skeptical that you know what you are doing. If you think this is a problem with testosterone, go see an endocrinologist and he/she will give you a full hormone report if you request it. Don't think to yourself that you're a machine in which only logic and reason make up your decisions. You're a human that becomes enveloped in emotion when facing difficulties. That's absolutely normal, and should be followed with genuine inquiry and advisement. If you really consider yourself more mature than others your age, even when you were younger, how would this maturity affect you if you were suddenly given a baby to hold as courtesy? If your close friend had a serious problem because he/she cheated on his/her long-term partner? Would you have enough human emotion to accept and enjoy holding a baby and realizing the purity of young ones? Would you have enough courage and respect to help and coach your close friend through his/her possibly traumatic experience? From what you've expressed in this thread, I can tell it would be difficult for you to do a lot of things that require maturity on a more practical (and real) level than from what you make yourself to be. Sure logic and reason can influence sound decisions, but a degree of emotion is always present that made you think of making a decision in the first place. If you can't connect to what I'm saying, I'm saying get real counseling first from the endocrinologist who will dispell your testosterone theory, and then from a psychiatrist. They really do help. In fact, they are the basis of this research you do over the Internet. Don't reason yourself out of this one. You owe it to both your curiosity and your sanity.
