  1. One does not belong. AC/DC is a good but not great band. They have really great guitar riffs/sequences, but everything else is pretty damn mediocre (at best). Lyrics and vocals (especially vocals) are just downright terrible. It's good genre music, and I'm a fan of some of their songs, but I wouldn't call them great by any means. Maybe Angus Young, the guitarist, or whoever actually came up with the guitar parts.
  2. Show me a modern group that has any of the following. 1. More catchy songs. Hell, even one on the same level as any of the following. -Dancing Queen -The Winner Takes it All -Seventeen -Take a Chance on Me -Fernando -Knowing Me Knowing You -Mamma Mia -Money Money That's off the top of my head, and I'm probably forgetting about like 4. What other band has that many famous/notable songs? Probably the Beatles, that's about it. Seriously, listen to one of them. It will be stuck in your head for weeks even if you "hate it." 2. Two legitimately great vocalists. Most groups don't even have one. Looking at you, AC/DC. ABBA's stuff are all rangy and difficult duets. 3. All of these hit songs weren't even in their fucking native language. Let that sink in for a minute. English was foreign to them, yet they not only sang in it, but they actually wrote all of their songs themselves in it. Ever try being fluent in a foreign language? Try being a pop star in one. If that's not hard enough, try coming up with meaningful lyrics for an entirely different culture. 4. They aren't fake. They have bad teeth, they don't perform in tons of shit make-up and ridiculous outfits for attention, and they're actually legitimately talented. The two women were still pretty hot in their prime despite this.
  3. Come at me, bro. Hating will make you feel better about your sexuality, but you and I both know you secretly agree.
  4. Is it me or has Google stopped bolding keywords from searches in the link description/excerpt?

    What happened to the Wednesday stuff?

    1. Jake

      The main problem is that there just isn't much news I can find. I've searched Gameinformer, and nothing of note has been going on. If you insist, I'll try to throw something together for this weekend.

      Nah, it's fine if there's nothing big. I was just wondering because the last Wednesday one was the 20th of Feb.

      There's also no reason to limit yourself to Wednesday if you just want to do bigger news. It would probably be easier doing one once a week on random days depending on when cool things are announced.

  6. Groupon has Hitman: Absolution for $18.99 with free shipping for a limited time. I'm getting extremely tired of posting deals regarding this game, but this is the best price yet for the 360/PS3 by far. The PC version has 7+ deals in our database, though.

  11. We now have a social groups / guilds application. I'd like people to beta test it by playing around with it and seeing if there are any major bugs. Note that I know there are theme issues; I haven't yet modified it to go with our skin fully. Anyways, you can access it here. It's extremely in-depth with group/guild functionality; you can set your own themes, logos, forums, etc. Here is the features page I created - http://eldersouls.com/guild-features Bugs [*]Moving the navigation block causes it to disappear and never return. [*]Options for blocks do not display. [*]Sub-categories do not display under their respective categories under General Settings. Skin Issues [*]Tons of width problems on guild pages. [*]Navigation looks horrible. [*]Guild RSS feeds cut off. Fixed [*]Guild portal layout. [*]Avatar borders. [*]Guild forums were squished, including the footer. Probably no solution. hurr durr [*]Guild News Block layout. Probably what Blexun was talking about. [*]Social media stuff was cut off on guild pages. Suggestions [*]New system to categorize and sort guilds - race, activities, etc. [*]Faction Counter [*]Custom blocks for guild pages.

  14. Yeah, I only suggested poison because it does quite a bit in boosting the value of potions.
  15. Good topic, and a great build. Though I'm sad you didn't add my perk suggestions, even though there is only 2 and they're inconsequential. The topics are usually pretty popular for forum traffic and search engines. I think the general discussion forum is a good place for it for now; it can always be promoted to an article with one click if need be. It's a high quality build thread. I'm really impressed with the details you added into it, especially upcoming patch fixes for current issues. I think you should post some more of these threads regarding your game-play experiences with this build, or maybe even stories.
  16. I'm pretty sure that's just some guy pretending to translate for satire. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tpvkWPow5vg "Former Republican candidate from Oregon" lol'd. I nearly spit out my snow coffee.
  17. Holy shit that's expensive for something that looks like an $8 Walmart GI Joe.
  18. I'm usually the opposite. Can't stand when Yahoo/MSN post a news link that leads to a video without article text. Usually just instantly exit; if not, I spend 10mins trying to find and jump to the important part in a 3 minute video. Moar articles.
  19. So I just realized with TRR closed you have nothing to moderate anymore. Do you want your old Content Team job back?

    1. Nathan

      Nathan

      So TRR is actually closed now...I knew it had gotten to the point where closing was inevitable. I would like to get my Content Team job back at some stage but not right now. I'll get settled back on the site and get my stuff sorted out (I've been really busy with irl stuff lately which has me kind of distracted) and then I'll reapply when I feel I can do the job right.

      Also just wanted to say it looks like you've done a great job adapting the site to take advantage...

    2. David

      David

      Yeah, there's no rush. It's just good to see you're back.

      Also, was the last bit of your message cut off?

    3. Nathan

      Nathan

      Oh yeah, I didn't notice that. The rest said something along the lines of "great job adapting the site to take advantage...of TESO, like introducing the guilds thing to the site and all the other changes you've made. :)

  20. I will add the caveat: it is refurbished. But imo, with that hardware for that price, who cares? CPU alone is probably almost half the total price.
  21. You get $20 off the regular $60 price when you pre-order and apply the following code during checkout. Code: EMCYTZT3079
