In Topic: PvPer, RPer OR PvEer
19 May 2011 - 11:55 AM
In Wow, I just like PvE but I started to get really disenchanted with raiding. Officer favoritism meant several terrible players got into the raids, including a girl who was only useful for sleeping with the guild leader and bitching at everyone else for not knowing how to play even though she's dead for 75% of the fight and consistently under-performing in DPS.
I like to make sure I'm doing competitively on the healing charts even though it really doesn't matter and is probably counterproductive for me to do so. Sniping heals and straying from healing assignments can really fuck up a fight.

I also want, in no particular order...
1) A pretty house.
Preferably an Eichler with this exact kitchen.
2) An adorable menagerie of animals. I will have cats and dogs and rabbits and chinchillas and hedgehogs and ducks and they will all be best frands.
It will be something like this:
3) A chauffeur. My family had a driver when we were living in China. Shit was so cash.
4) Shoes
5) A wilderness pond in my backyard and a small garden so I can be all hippie and sustainable and elitist about it.
In Topic: Stressed Out Final Exams, Advice?
18 May 2011 - 08:50 PM
on the other hand, from that perspective you should in fact score relatively well on the exam, since if knowledge is your primary concern, then you should be able to answer the questions. Yes people do care about what you know, but you would have to study enough till you have garnered enough knowledge for others to respect what you have to say.
The gpa is there to get your foot in the door, but it also serves as a way for you to measure whether or not you have actually learned the material
I mean its good to not stress out before the exam, but making an excuse and putting off the learning isn't going to help you in the long run either.
It looks like you skimmed my post, picked out one thing, and expanded it to some larger point I wasn't even trying to make. I'm not excusing low GPAs and I never advocated procrastination, I'm just saying an attitude/motive shift is healthy and productive.
In Topic: Anyone here play Starcraft II?

Feel free to add me if you want to play some 2v2s. Still too much of a pussy for 1v1s but I'll get there... eventually. Hopefully, it'll be soon since it's summer and I have more free time, yay!
Its pretty simple to get actually, what you have to do is to drop to the bronze league and keep losing until you are at 0 points, once you are at 0 points and lose enough you will start to see people with crazy icons. These are the win traders. Essentially what you do is that you trade wins with them by winning and losing every other game.
Many of these people are botting actually. Im not gona be responsible for getting accounts banned so im not gona post a link to the bot on here.
That sounds awfully boring though.
In Topic: How active are you now on Neopets?

Even though I am an admin, I haven't played in a very very long time (about 7 years actually). I just enjoy programming for the site, and making tools that other people can appreciate. With that said, I sometimes feel kind of lost when others are talking about certain new aspects of the game and I have no clue wtf they are talking about, but it's ok.
Is it difficult to write neo-related programs if you're out of the loop? Or have the mechanics not changed much over the past few years?
