Eh, I'd be careful. A fox or snake may sneak thier way into the situation.
Then it just gets disturbing.
 
[quote name='JSweeney']Nah. That would mean extra coding, or opening a thread devoted to it...
Neither seem particularly attractive, especially considering that most people would likely just skew the data to a ridiculous end anyway.[/QUOTE]
interesting thought though, i like it
 
There is a built in reputation system in this software, which I currently have disabled.
It just seems like its another thing for people to needlessly obsess over (like post count).

BigSpoonyBard, we have already reached maximum nerdosity. At this stage, any additional nerdyness is just overflow.

Yeah, the data provided from it could prove interesting, but it really probably wouldn't be worth pursuing unless someone was doing a paper on group dynamics or somesuch topic, and even then, you'd have to question the veracity of the data.

Not to mention those ginormous testicles. Could knock out a tusk on those things.

Wasn't modding me taking one step over that line, Cheapy? :D

Or was it my purpose to catch that overflow? :shock:

That's what I figured. It would provide interesting data, but unless there were some actual need or use for it, it would be just another thing for people to obsess over as you suggest, and only cause even more discord (which the mods would then have to deal with).

It is a shame though... I'd really be interested in the data. It's one of those things though, nothing more than a curiousity. Most of the dynamics around can just be picked up through observation anyway.

yeah, though i think that aside from practical purposes it might serve as a minor gimmick of amusement, as most things due when placed in these situations

And that is exactly why CheapyD wouldn't use it.
Unfortunatly, most of the fun had by people on internet message boards (not just this one specifically) is that thier fun has to come at someone elses expense.

You could be that as soon as this function was added, people would run to DDF's account to show high esteem, and then to someone like epobirs and run his score down, just because they can.

[quote name='zewone']I think what makes us better then Gamefaqs is grammar and intelligence....for the most part.[/QUOTE]

I'm with you there, though there's been a few examples that make me question that.
 
Wow...I actually finished my paper...I was considering the fact that I would be doing this paper all night, and now I finished pretty early...Gives me a nice free night. I'll be studying for the rest of the week, might as well enjoy this.

And I just realized Shrike's avatar isn't a red dragon...I think...

Nope, not a red dragon. It's the Shrike, actually. :D Thanks to jlarlee for the pointer on where to get the info about it.

Right over here:
http://www.dansimmons.com/index.html

Books in question with the Shrike:
Hyperion
Fall of Hyperion
Endymion
Rise of Endymion

Though, my use of it dates way way back to my use as a call sign when I was playing Robotoech:The RPG.

Interesting...I feel like I need to check these books out now.

On my list of books to pick up when I get some spare time to do some reading, or I'm sitting on a plane/train/long trip.
 
[quote name='GuilewasNK']All right, here is a clip of the guy I saw on TLC last night who thought it brilliant to ride a bike off a ramp that was moving towards him...

http://s48.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=3Q8E5WA2322AR2MNFMWQ21PCRJ

Around 400kb, but clear enough to see the end result... 25 feet in the air...2 busted ankles, busted wrist, broken back, and most likely a broken ass....[/QUOTE]

LOL

Now there's an idiot.
 
[quote name='SneakyPenguin']Yay, now I watch Battle Royale again![/QUOTE]

I really need to find that movie. Anyone care to send me a PM with it?

You're right, that is dumber than blowing yourself up in a boat. I mean, he didn't even try not to land on his feet, which would have saved at least his ankles. :lol:

I'm pretty sure I'm going to name my first son Robert (my legal name) and my second son Zoo (my nickname). It would be great if they were twins. My wife can name my daughter whatever she wants.

[quote name='crazytalkx']Apparently its forbidden to talk about any parts of the AP test or it will be invalidated. What the fuck?![/QUOTE]

They're not supposed to. You're supposed to have filled that out before hand. You just sit down and take the tests. Which tests are you guys taking? I've got my Stat's one on Wed, Euro on friday, then Govt next wed. By far the worst I took was the AP Java. Our teacher knew absolutely nothing about the topic and we all got 1's. Good times.
