ShadowFiend216 Posted October 25, 2015 Report Share Posted October 25, 2015 I really hate the fact that there are many people who got H5 early. 1.) It's not fair to to those who didn't get it early. 2.) Why don't they have to wait until release like everyone else? 3.) Who would want to spoil the game for themselves by watching others play it? Doesn't that ruin the game for you? Or is that just me? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doesn't that ruin the game for you? Or is that just me? Some people get early access to things by having 'hook-ups' in the industry, or by being able to advertise the game to a lot of people. The reason for early releases these days is primarily a marketing scheme, with an element of beta testing involved. Due to strict deadlines many companies don't get enough time to do a proper beta for their single player parts of the games, so early releases gives them a heads-up for things they'll have to hot-patch after the full release. That's where you get 'day 1 patches' from, and the ones to blame are the publishers rather than the devs. Those who want to spoil the game for themselves simply don't have the self-control (or desire) to wait until they can actually get their hands on the game. The thing is, there are hardly any stories out there that aren't predictable anymore, so it becomes more about the actual experience than the story with a lot of gamers. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ranger Intel Posted October 25, 2015 Report Share Posted October 25, 2015 (edited) Could a predator that kills pests be called an 'organic pesticide'? E.g: Hedgehog, Ladybug Edited October 25, 2015 by UNSC Spartan II Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Director Posted October 26, 2015 Author Report Share Posted October 26, 2015 Could a predator that kills pests be called an 'organic pesticide'? E.g: Hedgehog, Ladybug Farmers who want to be a bit sarcastic and sound smarter have a tendency to refer to ladybugs as organic pesticides, so yes. Prior to the 'all natural' social movement that's actually what organic pesticides were referring to, animals that disrupted pest populations without being pests themselves. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Director Posted November 1, 2015 Author Report Share Posted November 1, 2015 So about this Inheritor award. I understand that if we were previously handed an award, but then they were replaced with the Inheritor award. Is there a list anywhere of the removed awards? I went from 52 to 44 (it did change to 45 today) but I can't remember what awards were removed. Also why were they removed? (if you can answer that question) It's basically a one award for all the awards that were removed type of thing. I feel your pain though, I went from 55 (or so) down to 27 with the awards dump. The awards were removed because the majority of them could no longer be attained or were no longer relevant (i.e. personally created awards for staff members and moderators who hadn't been either for over two years).

Delpen9 Posted November 2, 2015 Report Share Posted November 2, 2015 My girlfriend and I are having problems. Lately, she's been busy working, and when she gets home, she's extremely tired. She told me today that I've been too mean to her lately, and combined with work, she can't handle it. I had no idea... Then she said some things that made it sound like she was going out on a date with her best friend. I misunderstood and pressed the panic button, saying things I shouldn't, and now because of it, she's uncomfortable with me. She has trouble with my dry humor (Who doesn't?), and takes things too personally. I believe myself to be a very nice person... but I don't know what to do.

She has trouble with my dry humor (Who doesn't?), and takes things too personally. I believe myself to be a very nice person... but I don't know what to do. The best thing to do is communicate. Clear, concise communication to be specific. Basically, you have to talk to her without making jokes and hear how she feels and tell her how you feel. Mind you, I don't mean get into an argument. I mean sit down with her and talk about your situation, and apologize if you feel the need to. If you two are compatible, you'll be able to work this out. If not, then things won't get any worse than they already are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Melody Posted November 2, 2015 Report Share Posted November 2, 2015 How would you describe a colour to a blind person (In your own way) Also Could it be possible for people with disabilities (Blind, Paralyzed, etc..) to possess a unique trait in another umm "human trait" (wasn't sure how to word it) Basically could a blind person have better smell? Could a deaf person have better vision? Etc, etc.. Since that trait doesn't exist wouldn't another trait benefit from the lack of the other?

Could a deaf person have better vision? Etc, etc.. Since that trait doesn't exist wouldn't another trait benefit from the lack of the other? There wouldn't be an accurate way to describe color because that is something that changes with each person's perspective, and the blind person wouldn't have any perspective to work with. So I wouldn't try. Yes, when one lacks a sense (especially one they had previously) one's mind tends to attempt to make up for this by heightening awareness with the other senses. A decent chunk of scientists believe that this a survival mechanism, but there are those who believe that the heightened senses are simply a result of no longer being distracted by the lost sense. In other words, if one were to lose their sight and notice that their senses of hearing, touch, and smell all increased in sensitivity, it is possible that this is either a survival mechanism or that they simply weren't aware of how acute those senses were previously because they were 'distracted' from it by their sense of sight.

The Director Posted November 12, 2015 Author Report Share Posted November 12, 2015 I got this from a Vsauce video, and I don't remember if he stated it specifically. He only said that it wouldn't be instantaneous Correct. The length of time it would take for the other senses to 'heighten' would depend entirely on the person and how they use those other senses. It's been theorized that someone who was born blind would develop heightened other sense much quicker than someone who's eyesight was lost in their 30s. The younger you are, the quicker the change should occur as well. However in most cases the change takes months at the very least, with a few cases of the change never occurring at all. The sense that is most likely to get an increase in sensitivity to cover for blindness is hearing, followed closely (statistically speaking) by the sense of touch. The process in which the brain uses parts of itself that were normally reserved for a sense that was lost to increase other senses is called cross-modal neuroplasticity.

The Director Posted February 17, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 17, 2016 So we burn all the publishers? Unfortunately if we did that then we wouldn't get any AAA game titles. Publishers are quite important in the video game industry, as they are the ones who pay the developers for their work. Otherwise, if a dev made one bad title their company would run the risk of going under. Instead, the publisher takes this risk for the dev and then takes a chunk of the profits for their troubles. Yeah, publishers can be a pain, but they serve a purpose. What are your thoughts on the second Titanic Ship that is being built? Well, I wish them luck, but I'm not going to be on THAT maiden voyage that's for sure. For a pacifist, can they be pretty optimistic? Paramore song reference I know lol and pacifists, by nature, have to be at least a little optimistic. To believe that you can live without being violent you also have to believe that you can convince others to not be violent to you. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Kittens and Gibberish Posted February 25, 2016 Report Share Posted February 25, 2016 What are your thoughts on Time Travel? I mean, its not like we are going to be able to in the near future, if ever. But what if it were already invented, and we don't know about it yet. What if the real reason why nothing has changed, is because when you go back in time, it doesn't affect our time line, but creates a new one? An alternate reality of what had already been, and what will be? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What if the real reason why nothing has changed, is because when you go back in time, it doesn't affect our time line, but creates a new one? An alternate reality of what had already been, and what will be? I don't believe travelling to the past is possible, but travelling to and from the future might be. Even if travelling to the past WERE possible, it would be massively irresponsible to do so. Even if there were a chance to kill Hitler, for instance, there's a possibility that doing so would lead to an even greater atrocity than the holocaust. So it's likely that if time travel is invented, it would be used to go to the future and bring knowledge back to the 'present'. Where are you Over there. what do you direct? Everything. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
