Someone get me a bombing pair of 7.1 surround sound headphones with crazy fidelity, pleeeease lol. These Sony buds just don't cut it. They don't even 'pound'. The only thing going in their favor is that they have a clear and balanced audio. Just not enough decibels dammit!

My rant:
My G1's space bar sucks, I have to hold it for at least about a quarter of a second in order for it to insert a space.

Re: The Official Rant Thread
Oh hell as much as I like Halo 2 and this is the place that proves it, I'd have to pick JSRF, its pure art in a videogame, from its visuals to its story telling even thought he animation is a little simple the voice acting does it justice.
On the other hand Halo 2 is a cool FPS with great environements/ambience and music for its time but it doesn't have any deep meaning, its just a blockbuster pretty hyped, though props for the first online multiplayer experience on xbox which is what really made it an intresting game.

Re: The Official Rant Thread
I'm playing HALO PC and I can't talk to my teammates! I have this grey bar at the bottom of my screen and it won't let me type! I can't even see people I kill! Can someone help me out? It's driving me crazy.
Got it fixed!

Re: The Official Rant Thread
TabControl class is such an annoying POS. Makes it a pain in the ass to reorganize tabs or add a "X" onto the right of a tab to allow it to be closed! They never thought to build this in?

Yeah standard .Net tabs suck, you're much better searching for a third party control to use.

Re: The Official Rant Thread
My gf took a NASTY spill on her bike in front of me. Loose dirt got under her as she was swerving a pot hole and she really scratched up her left side of her body. She's doing fine, but damn, it was crazy. I was right behind her and a car was right behind me. We are lucky the car didn't run us over.

Ouch! I'm looking forward to buying a bike once the snow melts around these parts and hitting the trails.

You sly dog. How did you find that post of his, hahah?! Hey Xzodia, Gary over here has been following you around. You may want to watch out! haha
Damn you drug cartel! I only want to ride my bike! 
That's awesome! I've been wanting to take on some trails over here in Austin, but I'm afraid my bike will get a flat because it is a road bike. Any thorn that I ride over will give me a flat, so I gotta stay on the streets. When I get back home to the Rio Grande Valley, I am going to take my mountain bike and take on the Mission trails! Those are always fun. The only bad thing is that I live so close to the border and the drug cartel have been known to roam those trails and do some of their deals there. In turn, border patrol may have taken over the Mission trails--or maybe the drug cartel.JacksonCougar wrote:Ouch!

Looks like a bitmap with the width 2 or 3 pixels out. Looks like it may be using the non-padded width, causing every line to be shifted right 2 or three pixels.Click16 wrote:sooooooooo...... what am I looking at?XZodia wrote:IMAGEEEE

Tch, that sucks man, freaking drug-areas are not safe to be in considering that drugs = money + bad people; bad people + money = guns; guns = violence; violence = a shit ton of fuck to deal with... lol Idk why I made an evil equation....DoorM4n wrote:That's awesome!

Re: The Official Rant Thread
Found out yesterday that a good friend from high school was found dead in his dorm two nights ago. He took his own life.
The second statement was more baffling to learn to me than the first. Currently alternating between freaking out and being emotionally dead.

That's harsh man. I don't know what you're going through but I know that must mess up your head to find out that news.

Some guy made those Area 52, 53, 54, and 55 maps for Halo Custom Edition and they are so difficult that I am infuriated by my lack of success and instant spawn deaths. Curse thee creator and his better-than-legendary bots!!!!

I can't believe I have 8 different Entity's in my modding folder. DAMN! I can;t believe that is the case. F**k it, I'm going back to using Darkmatter Alpha--I got that one too.

Re: The Official Rant Thread
I hope that only one of those is 2.x I have tried to make sure that any newer versions have all the features of the older 2.x versions and I know there have been pitfalls in some versions, but that's why I keep releasing more. ATM I can only think of 1 reason that you would have 2.1.5/6 installed along with 2.1.10 and that is for the COPY TO ALL REFLEXIVES option in the old meta editor, but that should come back for the 2.1.11 release. If you find that any 2.x release has something that's missing from the newest release let me know. I don't want to add to the whole "I need this version to do this, this version to do this, etc, etc" thing.DoorM4n wrote:I can't believe I have 8 different Entity's in my modding folder. DAMN!

Re: The Official Rant Thread
Well, I just downloaded your Entity that is stickied in the utilities section. I also just downloaded Jackson Cougars with the perfect model injection. Now the others I have are probably garbage, but I still have them. Which Entity should I use for recursive injection of stuff? Or should I just scrap entity for recursive injection and use insolence?
