RonJonSurfer Posted June 11, 2009 Report Share Posted June 11, 2009 I seem to recall I didn't get many stars...somehow I survived all of your negative vibes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucky Posted June 12, 2009 Report Share Posted June 12, 2009 I had a 5 star rating with several votes, and I remember giving everybody else a good rating. I wonder why they removed it? It was an ego boost. I had 5 stars as well, so it was ok for me. But, I also remember that it was possible to vote low for people, and with enough bad votes you'd lower their rating. Like Youtube is, I think. Anyway, I remember that happening to a couple of people, and thinking it wasn't very nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarcM Posted June 12, 2009 Report Share Posted June 12, 2009 I remember being richer than a king The minutes of the day were golden I recall that when the joint passed around My body felt a little colder But now I'm like a sewer channel - running lime and scag Let me get at the master panel - let me at my stack The sea refuses no river And right now this river's banks are blown The sea refuses no river Whether stinking and rank Or red from the tank Whether pure as a spring There's no damn thing stops the poem The sea refuses no river And this river is homeward flowing I have seen a trace of strain In other's eyes, not spoken. I must admit that I enjoyed their pain But this time it's me that's broken I demand for you and His This must be the time When we decide what freedom is Turn water into wine For the sea refuses no river We're polluted now but in our hearts still clean The sea refuses no river We tried not to age But time had it's rage We're washed over the stones From babies into clones of the mean The sea won't refuse this muddy river Nor deny the sulphurous stream There was a fool in a dressing robe Riding out the twilight hour Lonely and cold in an empty home Trying to assess his power But now he's like a stream in flood Swollen by the storm He doesn't care if he sheds his blood Let him be reborn For the sea refuses no river Remember that when the beggar buys a round The sea refuses no river And rain fills the gutters No time for stutters This is our chance To sing and dance and to clown The sea refuses no river And rivers were sprung to drown The sea refuses no river No pecking code respected for the damned The sea refuses no river Whether starving and ill Or strung on some pill Just 'cos you own the land There's no unique hand plugs the dam The sea refuses no river And the river is where I am The river is where I am Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steel2Velvet Posted June 12, 2009 Report Share Posted June 12, 2009 Remember when we used to have the star rating system for posters! Is that what that was?? I thought it was just indicating members of the Jewish faith. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Seeker Posted June 13, 2009 Report Share Posted June 13, 2009 I rediscovered Age of Empires (the 1999 one). I know it's ancient, but the multiplayer modus is still lots of fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Foolonthehill Posted June 14, 2009 Report Share Posted June 14, 2009 I love AoE II, I used to play it all the time with my friends. It's probably my favourite video game. AoM was pretty good, but kind of disappointing in that the myth units were useless- the best strategies involved only human soldiers. I also didn't like the expansion. The Atlanteans were a pain in the ass, and the titans were just lame. I haven't played video games very much recently, though. I quit WoW a couple years ago because it was no longer as fun and took up too much time. I did play Portal recently though, it is an excellent game, extraordinarily well made.
