That's my point.

My rant is my friend getting to drive his friend's WRX STI to and from school today. ;_;
Then he had the nerve to shift and make his blowoff valve go off right past me.

Well the way i see if is where the brain is still ticking a few minutes after you actualy die you slowly fall into a coma like state aka the sleep bit.
like i said when i was in the depths of my illness when my lungs and heart were at 24% functionality my blood saturation of oxygen in my system was 81% CO2 instead of the better 95-100% oxygen.
i nearly died a few times and one night i came close to 30 minutes to do somthing or i die.
and all i felt was sleepy very sleepy.

Well yeah, that's the same thing as if you got Carbon Monoxide poisoning. It's just that your body doesn't run well on a different mixture, so you slow down so that (hopefully) you can get air soon enough, and restart again.

First of all, cameras were not meant to be held in one hand, the same goes with a gun... You're also moving your body around a lot, so it's not a real problem you know.

Why you're taking those pictures, however, is a mystery to me.

MY 360 WON'T READ HALO 3. But it will read Madden 08. My Xbox 360 has been acting weird, like sending the disc into the back of the console, making me have to get it out while scratching it, but my Halo 3 disc came kind of scratched.. So What do I do? Don't they refund or something?

I fucking hate T-Mobile. This is bullshit, I have to call customer service just so I can USE my phone. Their idiotic 'security system' locked my fucking SIM card because I entered the PIN code wrong 3 times.

Argghhhh I HATE calling customer service.

You shouldn't need to know who which moderator tells you that you're breaking rules.

Explain to me how it would 'help' if the moderator who edited your posts left a name.

I edit posts in the same way every time...The only other person that does it similar is Detox.

Why hate a poor staff member for fixing the errors that you make? :(

Heck, we do it in a pretty tolerant way. for example, the recent "issue" with someone having 6 lines of text then saying they hate me for their own ignorance. It is odd, and heck I don't understand why people don't learn. After 6 infractions you'd think you'd be pretty damn aware of what the rules would be. I once broke a rule (astonishing!), I had an animated signature, after Kirk told me via an edit it wasn't allowed, I learned from said mistake and adjusted...Once is all it took me, why does it take 6 times for you?

The rules haven't really changed since the merge, the person has also been here for a bit and had been a pretty frequent poster...but nope! If we were the evil moderators that should be hated, I would have permanently banned the person for a disregarding the rules so much and getting away with it (By doing it again)... Yet I was nice enough to allow it to be just a slap on the wrist.

Then there's the situation above where they're going "oh we hate moderators that don't leave their name", yeah so you can target them with extra malice for you're next post against them? Heck you even used discriminatory language there (I'm just guessing by what the edit says), yet all you get is an edit, a warning telling you not to do it. When the rules say you are not to do that kind of thing. The name isn't needed there unless its an edit without any clear purpose, where you didn't want it there or you didn't think it was needed. In which case I'm sure you could bring it up somewhere to get an answer. But nah, screw that, its easier just to hate those evil staff doers, because all they want to do is make the place dark and evil.

Who's the one that should be hated there? The one that breaks the rules? Or the one that is nice and lets them go practically harm free?

Sorry for the long winded rant. But the whole anti-moderator thing isn't going well with me. It makes me reconsider (in the extent that an Internet forum would have) the job that I volunteered myself to help this place out.
