They could shut down one of the servers. Without merging it into another. That would be worse.

This thread makes me sad. The community is literally tearing itself apart, especially against the younger members trying to keep a positive outlook. You disappoint me the most, Villemar. Out of all the louder vets that have become negative...

I'm fairly certain the android was Carlyne. Thus, plot hole! One of many, many, many.

I lead a group that works for various car insurance companies that helps increase the rates on several of their clients. <.< >.> <.< >.> *: Also, college student.
"The Man" is a Walrus. How could you be so insensitive?! I know it doesn't rhyme, but maybe he should change his name to Dalrus Myers. Oh, hey, look at that, it is getting close to the ol' Anniversary. I swear, if that man walrus forgets a...
So you'll die earlier, but in a fairly dramatic way?
So I heard there's a lot of flapping blue willy goin' on. Is this true, cuz I don't wanna have to stare at a glowing fun stick for too long.

You may be gone, but nothing lasts forever.
I'm guessing things didn't go over very well, heh?

I wish I had Walrus's magic ability to completly turn around negative feelings and attitudes with just one post.

A thread that originally tells people to stop complaining and lighten up ultimately turns into a thread for people to complain in. Hmm.. yup, that's a Fail Thread, alright.
Serious threads? Oh, you mean those ones crying over a game? I can't take those serious, sorry.
No job = no money. No money = no subscription. No subscription = I'm outta here! I'm outta here = I won't be here any more. I won't be here any more = Someone else will have to carry the beacon of hope and light through the darkness and de...
In a world of friggin' "Simpson's Did It," who gives a rip about total originality. If it's good and fun, I'll play it, even if it's called Shmalf Strife 2 and features Grodram Cheapdude. And if it's actually original, bonus!

Oh, cool, I thought you were gonna link to Dystopia or something. Aww, but this one isn't out, either! Why do you gotta do this to me, maaan? Eh, anyswuck, I'd be the Roboticist. Defending with things that fight for me is my bag.
Nine?! He's a regular old 'Q', he is. ..ah, now I'm all angry at John Cleese. Bugger.
Yarr, hoist that plank, ye scurvy squirrels! Manhandle that mast, move the anchor from the staboard side to the port side! Someone gimme a sammich, arr, I be a-hungerin' for some broiled cheese on toast.
Bye, God, we'll miss you. (Somehow I imagined a little girl's voice saying that, and now I'm all freaked out.)

OH MY EFFING GOD IT WORKS
Fun fact: Working together, some squirrels have the power to bring down much larger animals for feeding purposes. *evil laugh*
Screw Fox! Canceling them out just as the romantic tension between Fry and Leela was beginning to spill in on itself... Let Comedy Central take it!
I play both Medieval II and Rome passionately, and when I heard that this new game will both have naval battles that can be manually resolved AND multiplayer, my first thought was "Well, great, now I need to change my pants." I've got to g...

I know there's already a thread about this, but, considering the circumstances, I'm thinking people's ideas on what they'd do would be best kept in a seperate thread. If you were Dev for a month or two, what would you try to do? Me, I'd wo...

Yeah, I wanna see them do something non-comic book. Let's go for a regular book now! Who's up for the Wachowski's take on Winnie the Pooh? I admit, it will definitely be something I willl want to see.
This is the part where the hopes and excessively raised expectations begin falling down. And I sit back and have quite a good chuckle over it all.
