just quickly add something that after 90 days from the last login date and you have no maps in the vault what so ever, it removes the account. all you really need to do is run this once to clean things up.

that'll remove all of those FreeViagra spam accounts
Or if the user has no posts. Spam accounts don't seem to post at all, here.
Never mind.

Linux updates in "real time" by calling information on demand instead of caching, like Windows, which requires things like system restarts. In some ways, its less prone to crashes and such because of this. m0p could probably explain it better than me, though.
It also doesn't have as many security issues, but that's just because so few people use it.

I'm only judging from the screenshot, so I could be totally wrong, but this one looks questionable: http://twhl.co.za/vault.php?map=2988

in strange sv_airaccelerate problem Post #261319
You can always surf, but there's a certain array of angles that it works with.
Air acceleration can makes it easier to stay on slanted edges for surfing too, but it doesn't change the "terminal angle" at which you can't surf anymore.
For some reason 70 degrees pops in my head, but I couldn't find a precise angle by a quick google. You might have to experiment.

Higher airaccelerate values only change how quickly you can change direction in mid air. It only affects your speed if its a negative value.
This is why most surf or climb map server have high air acceleration.

First impressions as far as weapons go: Nice looking weapons, but some could look a lot better, and I'm happy with the 4 new guns. Animations are really twitchy though. The gun sounds are abysmal, though. Definitely going to jump on replacing those.

as well as a whole heap of 'state cultures', as opposed to the broader 'country cultures' that everyone knows of.
This is worth noting, for those who don't know it. It's very, very true. Most states have their own cultures, and they are really more different than you might think., especially when it comes to the northern vs southern states(which are really the northeast and southeast).

No comment on the grade changes; I haven't seen anything like changing F to E. Though I know that North Carolina is on a 7-point grade scale for as long as I can remember, and when I lived in California through middle school, they were on a 10-point scale.

If he's willing to break into my house and take my stuff, then he obviously cares more about my stuff than his well-being, so why shouldn't I?
Also, a shot to the foot won't kill. Period. Even with a high calibur, there aren't enough large arteries/veins that run through the foot to cause any mortal damage.
I'm all about circumstantial morals, but there's never any practical reason to break into someone's house and steal. There's always a better alternative if you are that desperate. They deserve it for being so stupid.

If the guy who broke into your house was armed, you could easily plea self defense.

in Kid kills parents over Halo 3 Post #260352
Say someone breaks into your house and you get your gun. All he would have to do is to run away. It's not like you can shoot him. Your gun wouldn't help at all.
The quickest way to find out if someone has a gun is to threaten them. And more than likely, if someone breaks into your house, they will have some kind of weapon. The only exception is if you can catch the my him off guard, EG: behind them.
Also, I don't know where you get off saying "it's not like you can shoot him". You would have to be an idiot not to shoot him, and let him get away.
Again, it's just stupid to think that the criminal has no weapon. If they pull a gun, not have but pull a gun, on you, you can kill them under self defense. Alternatively, if they are only armed with a knife, or the unlikely event of being unarmed, you can, and probably should, shoot them in one foot so you can safely reach a phone. Criminals aren't protected by that sort of thing-- you would not be charged with assault in this case.
Potatis, you need to stop thinking in this little bubble. Almost everyone and their dog owns a gun in America, and 99% of the population thinks nothing of it. Its part of the culture.

Why does everyone either think Halo is the best game ever or absolute shit? It's a mediocre game.
Halo has the worst fanboys, and people's hate for the fanboys tranfers over to the game. There's an association between "halo" and "screeching fucktard".

Nobody can truly prove the existence of anything outside of assuring their own self that they exist.
If you think that it's possible to prove that God doesn't exist, but impossible to prove that I exist, then you don't deserve to have your question answered because you clearly don't understand what you are asking.

But if you are seriously expecting some real answers, all you're going to get is sensless skepticism and scientific theories.

Do I believe in Christmas? Well Christmas is a celebration of the birth of jesus of Nazareth, who would be hailed as the son of God. I don't doubt for a second that Jesus was a real person, its been recorded in a lot more than the Christian Bible that there was a real Jesus, but not that he was the son of God. I believe that some assassins ("3 kings", though they were never numbered, and only recognized as 3 because of the number of gifts) were ordered to find and kill Jesus when he was born, and refused to when they got there. I don't believe they were visited by angels on their way.
I believe it as a historical event, not in the religious context.

Do you know that Galaxy Andromeda is heading towards our galaxy at the speed of aprox 400,000 km/h?(or second I don't remember,correct me if I'm wrong and you know about this:D).
In a couple of million years the 2 galaxies will collide, resulting into one or 2 black holes. Our faith(destiny or whatever, shitty english) ?
2 possibilities : 1. We are sucked in one of the black holes. Bye-bye earth.
2. The Solar System is catapulted out of the galaxy. We may survive or even get attracted by another galaxy !
That's absolutely preposterous. Rooster's can't lay eggs.

The supercomputer in 2012 is misleading. They said it will be more capable than the human brain, but really, it will just have more processing power. Computers can never be as capable as the brain because the brain doesn't operate under binary logic-- while the computer has to take into account every possibility, the brain can just ignore what isn't relevant. Better for math, worse for creative thinking.
