The Rant/Rave Topic - Grim - 08-16-2006 OK, so here's the place to rant/rave. Here's how it works: just let it out, LOL. Alright, so I'm raving that the site's up, and running quite nicely. It's my pride and joy. Setting this up took quite a bit of time and effort on my part, so naturally I feel a bit of satisfaction in seeing it work. That's just about my only high for this week. I'm ranting 'cause I have too much schoolwork to do, so I can't even play AC for a while. I mean it guys, I'm swamped. If I'm not here in the next few days, you know where I'll be... drowning in readings galore. In addition to that, I can't even think up of new, worthwhile topics to talk about... I'm that tired. Now about the slowness of the site, ehh, it's not really a problem to me. AC is suffering from underexposure in the country, and I'm sure all of you guys have stuff to do as well. So, ang gusto ko lang sabihin ay hindi ko kayo pinepressure magpost. Sana lang ikalat niyo lang talaga yung laro. Yun lang. I'm done for the week. - Goat - 08-17-2006 I'm raving because the site also up and yay I think more people will be introduced to AC game. :tongue: I'm ranting because I'm not sure if we'll be extinct or something like that. - Serene - 08-17-2006 Same Here... And we may become extinct if we don't do anything... First: Mahirap maghanap ng mga naglalaro ng AC... Lalo na yung mga hustler or proffesionals... Dahil kahit sa designing bano sila... Second: Maraming nagrereklamo na mahirap ang controls... Hirap silang tumingala, mag-sidestep at kung minsan... lumingon... Kelangan sa mga to, hindi practice, kundi training. Third: Mahirap daw magdesign... It's either nahihirapan sila pumili sa dami ng parts, o kaya naman ay di nila alam ang ilalagay nila... Ito talaga ang kailangang turuan ng basics... Uunahin ko muna yung [3 level Designing Basics] ko bago yung garage para makatulong sa mga to. Fourth: Mabilis silang sumuko... As In! Yun lang... Anyways... I'd like to help in the Designing Tutorials para makatulong... Serene Out. :08-18-06 Additional: 6 members? Ano tayo? Power Rangers? - Juno - 08-19-2006 Rave: Yey may site na!Wahahaha!Sana dumami ang ating lipi! Rant:Bago tayu maextinct...Huhuhu...T_T - NiX - 09-15-2006 LOL mabuti nga ngayon, halos 10 na ang kilala kong hardcore Filipino ravens. 2 years ago, I only knew of leperman, maitreya, and myself. Hahah. Believe me when I say that our current number is practically miraculous... haha - Lord_Leperman - 09-15-2006 LOL, True that - Grim - 09-15-2006 Raving 'cause we're not going extinct... in fact, we're silently growing in numbers. And 'cause there's another meet this Saturday. XD Ranting 'cause Accounting sucks. LOL - Serene - 09-15-2006 Raving: Dumadami na nga tayo... Paulan tayo para mas dumami tayo! Ranting: Wala akong load... - Goat - 09-15-2006 Raving: Wohoo may meeting bukas para sa AC baka makapunta ako. Tapos Bday pa ng kaklase ko! Yay what a reunion. :excited: Ranting: Oh no. Cheerleading... no, my plans for Saturday. Nooo!!! 8am-6pm practice ang haba. I'm doomed, but whatever. Better luck next time, I guess. :hmm: - VeilSide - 09-16-2006 why's the government gotta take away so much of my paycheck in taxes? goddamn. i'm supposed to get like $2,200 twice a month and i only come back with like... $1,600. that's $600 gone. just like that. that's like making me buy and give away two PS3's every month. i'm trying to stay fit. work out, eat healthy whenever i can, you know? making sure i live long so i can collect social security and get some of my money back lol. - NiX - 09-17-2006 <!--QuoteBegin-VeilSide+Sep 16 2006, 12:55 PM--></div><table border='0' align='center' width='95%' cellpadding='3' cellspacing='1'><tr><td>QUOTE (VeilSide @ Sep 16 2006, 12:55 PM)</td></tr><tr><td id='QUOTE'><!--QuoteEBegin--> why's the government gotta take away so much of my paycheck in taxes? goddamn. i'm supposed to get like $2,200 twice a month and i only come back with like... $1,600. that's $600 gone. just like that. that's like making me buy and give away two PS3's every month. i'm trying to stay fit. work out, eat healthy whenever i can, you know? making sure i live long so i can collect social security and get some of my money back lol. [/quote:8467eadfdd] Dude, at least in the U.S., you can actually see where your tax money is going (e.g. Freeways, 2-Billion-dollars-each Stealth bombers (lol but true), etc.). Here in the Philippines, we're never really sure where the money is going... - Grim - 09-17-2006 Nix speaks the truth. - Serene - 09-23-2006 Where do all our tax money go anyway? We are MULTIPLYING!!! - Lord_Leperman - 10-03-2006 Rant: Geez, I hate school! I just hate it so much... I don't want to do my proposal anymore! Its so messed up and making me re-do the whole damn thing is snuffing the life out of me. I'm also developing abnormal sleep patterns from doing this crap, ugh. - Grim - 10-08-2006 Rant: My aunt sent in a balikbayan box from Australia... supposedly it was as big as 1 and 1/4 of a regular sized balikbayan box, due to a promo they had over there from what I understand. Anyway, it was supposed to be filled to the brim with all kinds of foodstuffs and other goodies. When it came to us though, the box was small. And tampered with. Regularly my aunt writes the receiver's address on the packaging tape itself, in black marker pen. This one had new packaging tape plasetered on it, and the address typed out in a teeny computerized font, on the bottom side of the box. And as I said, the box was smaller than what we expected; it was old and used and crumpled in places. Usually when relatives send balikbayan boxes, the tape is hard to remove by hand, you have to use a knife or some other sharp object to slice through the thing. The tape placed on the box however, we were able to remove by hand. And the very worst part was the inside: things were jumbled all over, halatang hinalungkat. And the stuff inside didn't even fit the box to filling point, unlike previous boxes we received. Yeah, so if you've figured it out by now, nanakawan kami ng stuff in transit. Grabe talaga buhay... people will do anything to survive, even if it means a little crime. It's a little saddening to see what people (and specifically Pinoys - we know it was Pinoys that did this) can do. Right now, the material loss, like I said, is a little saddening, but that doesn't even matter much anymore, I mean I have good food here at home, and a roof over my head, so taken from that perspective, it's not a big deal. Nakakalungkot lang talaga ang kayang gawin ng mga tao. So yeah, kung paulit-ulit at paikot-ikot lang ako sa mga sinabi ko, it's mostly because I just typed it out how I felt. |
