I'm not trying to start an argument or criticize, but my rant is about iGeo getting his Staff status back. I'm probably ignorant as to the reason, but I mean, he was RCed for posting a link to an inappropriate website, and his Staff status was removed as well. And now he has both back.

This isn't an attack at you, iGeo, I think you're a great guy, but it sort of annoys me that you got your Staff permissions back.

As far as I know.

My religion teacher. We're on sexuality, and when asked a question, she'll answer everything except for the question. >_>

Teacher:
"My advice, don't put yourself in a situation where you'll have sex at an early age."

Student says:
"Ok, what if I'm in the situation regardless of whether I should be or not. Do you recommend I use a condom, seeing as I'm underage and couldn't handle a family?"

Teacher responds...
"I recommend that you don't put yourself in that position..."

Student:
"Uhh, I know. But what if I'm already in the process and called you on your cell phone, would you recommend I use a condom?"

Teacher:
"Just don't put yourself in that position."

Way to answer our freakin' question. She thinks that if she says "yes, use protection," we'll all leave and go fornicate on the street.

Apparently expecting people to not be stupid in the HM gamertag database was too high of an expectation. I shouldn't have to have the approval system, but people have proved it is necessary. I have no problem just declining the profile if you're too immature to handle it.

I think I'll add a ban system, so I can prevent the aforementioned people from using the page if they're irresponsible.

I hate that. But, it's against the law (at least in my state) to tell kids to use a condom or anything of the sort. I find it completely ridiculous, because it's not like they can stop all kids from getting into that kind of situation; and not all kids know how, or why to use protection. Ultimately, to avoid the situation would be the better choice, but that's beyond the barriers of reality.

It was sort of a question relating to unplanned pregnancy. We were talking about how we aren't ready to support a family, being teens, but also, using a condom, or any sort of protection is a sin against God.

So, in that situation, what should we do? Risk having a kid, and suffer the consequences, and forcing that kid to live a tainted life? Or use protection, having a lower chance of unplanned pregnancy, but sinning against god because the "love making" wasn't unitive or life-giving. Basically, it was for nonprocreative reasons if you use protection.

I personally think that she herself didn't know the answer. I guess it's up to the individual.

But most of the kids in my class plan to be virgins before marriage anyway, because they gave us the idea, "You can go as far with a girl, as you expect your future wife to go with another guy..."

Everyone was like "OH SHI-
No sex for me."

This reminds me of lyrics.

To my dismay, after purchasing a 60-Day WoW Time Card, I realized that I have to purchase the WoW Game before using the time card on a Trial Account.

Great... >_<

Tural and Iron_Forge implement a cool new feature, and a select few have to ruin it so that they have to do even more work just to make sure people don't abuse it. Grow up.

Trial account = trial account

You get 30 free days with the game anyway, and I think the game is only $20, or maybe it's $30, either way, it's almost like just buying a 30 day game card (if it's 20, if it's 30 then it's paying double what you'd normally pay)

That post was in reference to the page hosted on Legendary's site, not the features Forge and myself are working on as a part of this forum.

o.o I see. Well, still rather childish to abuse it no matter what forum it's on, but I suppose it can't be helped really.
