that's what he gets for being a whiny pussy & talking behind her back.

This, pretty much covers it. That, and having less desire to drop huge block of time, all the time.

As well as a hugely reduced tolerance for stupid juvenile behavior, mannerisms, and speech.

about 6 to 9 months ago....

-Owner/Boss is in a meeting with one of our sales persons.
-he gets a call and picks it up.
-it is the main manager from our branch up north.
-Boss realizes who it is, and that he is just talking, unaware he made the call, having the phone on his back pocket.
-they realize he is bad mouthing the company, owner, and talking to one of their competitors.
-boss listens to the call that goes on about 45mins+
-both boss and sales person drive up there (about an hour drive)
-confronts the main manager in front of staff and makes him his ***.

lolol

As long as one stays out of the shout/yell of town, it's not too bad.

Nothing like the days of birdhair on Bahamut though.

DayZ is FINALLY getting promising, but still has some issues. It is still in alpha too...

that game is right about what I'm looking for. I paid for the alpha, but my PC is just a little too old to play it without all kinds of lag in the perspective. sony is ripping them off & making a game called "H1z1" that looks pretty sweet. "the division" has some promise as well, but we'll see, I guess.

patience seems to be the name of the game atm.

Dayz actually looks really fun, despite some of the weird articles about playerbase behavior on it.

That's the post-apocalyptic one, right, or am I thinking of another game?

I don't miss the community at large. Almost everyone was a backstabbing opportunist only looking out for themselves from the get go. I can count the number of people that didn't *** me over without taking off my shoes. In the end it was the people that killed it for me.

I miss the thrill of victory and the agony of defeat most. The sense of accomplishment of doing the impossible with too few people and not good enough gear. The epic, come from behind win pulled from the brink of disaster. Only succeeding by staying up until five in the morning and stubbornly refusing to give in....

I miss weird things like PLing noobs. I miss dying to bunnies. Killing that one orc in west ron that waits for noobs. Summoner burns, wandering around ToAU without maps, learning to sleep nuke on blm or sata on sam,

Some times, before they changed dynamis we bought an hourglass and invited everyone and anyone to come in, we let all the coins free fall and let everyone free lot the gear, that was a lot of fun.

It's a zombie apocalypse survival game. Future plans involve vehicles, drugs, and apparently having to... relieve yourself. I feel they may find opposition to the last one, but it's in the plans.

There are some problems with it right now. The zombie engine is super buggy, as in they can run through walls, often spawn in the ground so you just constantly hear zombie grunting with nothing nearby, and their hit boxes can be suspect. Playing in first person mode helps with the hit boxes, but the rest is still there. The community can be unforgiving, but I can't say I've never done awful things. I'll tell the leading a 13 year old boy into an ambush story later.

The map is HUGE. Often times a few of us will decide to play, spend an hour running around trying to find each other, and never find each other. Or if we do, someone dies and spawns elsewhere and the hunt begins again.

Another weird issue is how the guns shoot. Their hit pattern is random, so long range sniping is pretty much impossible. I haven't read patch notes lately, so maybe they changed this.

All in all, it's at least entertaining and is continually improving. They've added a lot of stuff also, such as body heat and wild animals to hunt. So yeah, it's pretty cool.

DAY Z
Quote:
Got shot for three can of beans luckely i survived. Only later to be handcuffed by the same three men that shot my knee.

As i lay down there on the ground pondering as to whether i would survive the encounter with the bandits in Cherno.
My trousers were stripped from my almost dead body, this was suddenly followed by an influx of rotten fruit being ramed down my throat. And disinfectant to wash it all down with.

Seconds later the bandits were shot down by a hero. The hero came up to me and looked me straight in the eyes, as i gazed into his. He un-handcuffed me, it felt like he was going to hug me.
But then faster than a whip crack he blew my head off and stole my f*cking beans.

10/10 Would definitely play again!

Oh please. If your days as a teacher are numbered because you've got a bunch of hooligans for students, then your superintendant is an absolute assclown.

It is a system of obsolteting equipment without having to do the work of figuring out how to make job levels higher. So a single piece of equipment can make the equivalent of having a level 55 job trying to do lv75 content.
