You don't like being high, eh? The first few times I didn't either, but then it became enjoyable. The VERY first time, I was doing pushups on the floor, my friend's dog came up to me and I thought it was a bear and started fighting it. Good times.

I used to be a mod on the VERC mapping forums, unfortunately that was back when I didn't know nearly as much about mapping. Now I get to post news and edit articles (which there aren't any of anymore). HURRAY.

take Hugh, look at that screen, he's a talented Half-life mapper.Aww, shucks!
he just has no maps in the vault.Yes I do.
And I'm a Snarkpitter + VERC admin (though the latter doesn't mean anything now thanks to their gosh-darned dev wiki). I just try to not get too condescending 'cause if you're condescending and then turn out to be wrong, you're a moron x2. But yes, I agree, TWHL's a very laid-back place.

woo, in-editor shot. Probably could have used a better angle but I'm too lazy to get two shots atm.

Yeah, it's not like you're the sole judge or anything so there's no reason not to (unless you don't want to).

Good! Props are the devil. I say that as a non-Source mapper as Ant so kindly points out. If it wasn't for the golly gosh-darned physics, I'd view them entirely as prefabs... damn you, physics.

Yeah, I'm gonna post some screens of my map in a while too, it's for HL1 'cause nobody pressures you to use props in HL1 and I prefer brushwork to begin with.
I'm gonna throw part of my Reissues map in, puwahaha. I hope CJ and ReNo enter.

He wouldn't actually get arrested, he'd get put in a hospital. I've never heard of anyone getting arrested for attempted suicide; about the only trouble you could get into for attemtped suicide is, for example, if you were an airline pilot and tried to kill yourself mid-flight, and that's just because it endangers everyone else aboard.
Assisted suicide runs into trouble because the doctors could say they "assisted" the patient, suicide's illegal because a government isn't supposed to let its citizens die.

Over here in cheap-arse Yankland, people regularly do more than one job, like my school's history teacher was the girls basketball coach and athletic director.
They've got doctor-assisted suicide here in Oregon, essentially if you have a terminal disease and less than 6 months to live, you can get a prescription for an overdose of painkillers, essentially. Not sure if this has been mentioned but I don't want to read it to check, 'cause I'm lazy.

Slightly off-topic: For the sake of argument, let's say that abortion's not murder until it's past the 20 weeks or whatever it is the law says. How come somebody who shoots a mother who's been pregnant for a week gets charged with double homicide?
Aye, murder requires planning/intent, if you kill someone unintentionally then it's manslaughter. woot for Law & Order.
You can only buy food with your food stamps here (hence the name, I suppose) which is all fine and dandy except for, yes, the people who abuse the system. Strangely, my history class was all about the welfare system today. One guy was saying that people buy their food with the food stamps and then pull out a wad of cash (amount unspecified) and buy their ciggies/lottery tickets, and he felt that they should have to choose between ciggies/food, aaaaaand I agree. Blah.
Yes, you really played Buddhist 'ol me...
For Seventh:
For Xyos:
As for the disabled. Let's take an example. He's rather famous, actually, and is very highly regarded internationally across the large majority of society. Ohhhh, but he's disabled, so surely he's of less use to society than "normal people"?No, because he's not mentally disabled... and he's rich.
Bring out the death penalty for all crimes?No, replace life in prison with the death penalty so you have to pay for a syringe/whatever-chemicals-they-use instead of 40+ years of food/health care for some guy who's not getting out anyway.
For Xyos:
Its a work of fantasy, of fiction!So ideas from fictional works can't be thought-provoking or true?
These philosophers sat all day contemplating these thoughts and beliefs.I could sit around all day and think 2+2 = 5 (in base 10) and I'd still be wrong. Just because you think about something a lot doesn't make any it truer. You say yourself "these thoughts and beliefs" as if thoughts/beliefs are more valid than any other.
No, they don't bring up Darwin at all, but they're definitely not creationists and generally are evolutionists. I'm just curious as to why the government feels the necessity to spend resources on non-productive malcontents. I wouldn't say it's borderline eugenics unless the government spends resources on healthy, productive people... which it doesn't.
