Oh dear, Maple Story questions
I don't think it's answerable, by the way, since the number will change very frequently

Q: Restore the Thieves guild - Special Mission in Solutide

Jamie DixonI seem to be having some trouble getting to the special mission in Solutide. I've been keeping count, multiple times, of the number of missions I've been doing for Vex and Delvin. At the moment I've got a count of 13 solitude missions. 5 of those for Vex, 5 for Delvin, and the other 8 were a mi...

LOL..... hahah.... omg thats awesome ¬_¬

12:24 PM
@YiJiang'sEvilClone No you could not
 
@YiJiang'sEvilClone I just registered it
 
Well, uh, congratulations!
 
Just waiting for the DNS to propogate now
 
It'll only take 24-48 hours
 
12:34 PM
@YiJiang'sEvilClone No, it's much faster than that these days
 
Hmmm, how fast?
 
@YiJiang'sEvilClone An hour or so
 
@fredley You're a terrible person who is terrible.
 
@Sterno I love you too
Come ooooon DNS
 
has Friday even been linked once this year?
 
12:38 PM
@kalina Not yet
Soon it will have been linked
 
@Sterno for real? You've resisted linking Friday all this time?
 
@kalina It was my New Year's resolution.
 
but who really keeps to their new years resolutions??
 
And I'm not counting @fredley's trickery as breaking it!
The threat of a Rebecca Black link is just as effective as an actual Rebecca Black link, anyway!
You see that link, the song pops in your head. VICTORY ACHIEVED.
 
@Sterno We we we so excited
 
12:41 PM
renames to Stêrno, changes avatar to match and posts rebecca black links on friday
 
it's up!
/me just caused virgin medias DNS to cache it.

Q: Why did my floors disappear?

ClaireAfter an update on Tiny Tower today, 3 of my most recent floors including 1 I was building disappeared. I'm now back to 180 floors. Any ideas what has happened?

Two non-answers from 69 views?
 
:o my first silver badge.
Ooo I got two
 
I wonder if that song costs negative money on iTunes

Months behind.
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz Actually, the cookie got returned, so it's news again
Well, "returned". It was found strapped to a statue of a horse

Q: Track the changes made by mods?

Edwinis there any tool that can track the changes made by any mod? This is because my speedmult value keeps randomly changing to 31 and 175. I have over 60 mods installed.

Q: Is playing at a lower resolution beneficial?

AerusI have a 1280 x 1024 (4:3) resolution monitor. However, because my graphics card is absolutely horrible I have to play every game with the lowest possible settings. Even then, games barely run at more than 10fps. To increase this, I always use a 800 x 600 fullscreen resolution. So the game is ac...

 
@djsmiley2k gz
I get yearling in ~4 months or so
 
1:04 PM
*yawn*
 
wat
I need this.
 
1:20 PM
@OrigamiRobot If you want to make it yourself you could probably use this template as a starting point.
 
kalina, i signed up many years ago, but never had any rep for a long time it seems

Q: Why are videogames considered bad by society?

Tim Kathete StadlerYou hear it everywhere. Videogames are the root of evil. Why do videogames have such a bad reputation in most society parts? Why do people blame videogames when another rampage happens? Is there a particular reason why so much things are blamed on videogames or is it just because they need someth...

 
Not sure if that's the sort of stuff we want to talk about anyway.
You're not going to get a balanced discussion
 
he answers his own question
btw what are the guidelines on homework like questions?
 
@OrigamiRobot Murdered
 
1:25 PM
You've got video games for homework?
 
I haven't no
 
@djsmiley2k Do your research. Show some effort before you ask a question.
 
@fbueckert but answering isn't frowned upon?
I have no questions, only answers... :D
 
Different sites may have different policy.
 
@djsmiley2k Depends on the site. And the type of question.
 
1:27 PM
In general, treat them just like any other question as @fbueckert said
 
@OrigamiRobot You guys closed it too quick. I wanted to VTC that so hard.
 
cool :)
 
On SO, most homework questions tend to be
 
@djsmiley2k His question also starts with the wrong (or at least unproven) premise "Videogames have a bad reputation in most society parts." If you assume something that's not true as your premise, your conclusions are irrelevant.
 
@MartinSojka haha +1 to you.
 
1:29 PM
@YiJiang'sEvilClone In most media "balanced discussions" on video games tend to go like this: "I think video games are the cause of all evil in the world. How about you tim?" "I disagree entirely. I think video games are only the cause of most evil in the world, John." "Thanks for your level-headed rebuttal tim."
 
"It's ok. Video games only cause violence in humans. Animals are not effected. Panic over".
 
I have scientifically proven that if you beat children with violent video games they are prone to violent reactions, proving the link between violent video games and violent behavior
 
@BenBrocka Not if you beat them hard enough that they pass out.

Q: play Steam games with nvidia-optimus laptop?

213441265152351What is the best way to start a Steam game in an NVIDIA Optimus laptop with Ubuntu 12.04 Installed and the latest version of bumblebee installed? Should I call Steam with optirun or should I call the game I want to play with optirun?

 
@Sterno or long enough that they come to enjoy it. rpg's ftw.
 
1:36 PM
The beatings will continue until the loot improves
 
Video games don't make people violent, poorly thought out politics do.
 
driving makes people voilent.
 
I like driving
driving doesn't make me violent, public transport does
 
Got up to SHODAN's reveal last night.
 
@kalina Culture makes people violent. Culture is almost impossible to deliberately change.
 
1:39 PM
Still 100% amazing 15 years later.
 
@djsmiley2k Only some other people's driving. ;)
 
@fredley interesting...
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz shodan....?
 
@kalina Public transport can fill me with despair, but doesn't make me violent.
 
when I get violent, nobody takes me seriously anyway
 
1:40 PM
@djsmiley2k Have you never played System Shock 2?
 
5ft 5 of angry little girl doesn't scare anybody
 
Cycling/driving is much more likely to get my blood up
@kalina "Aaaaaaw"
 
@djsmiley2k It just got put up on GOG last night. Go play it. Do not pass go. Do not collect 200 dollars.
> THE POLITO FORM IS DEAD INSECT.
 
o_O???
 
@fredley don't aww at me
I bite
 
1:42 PM
@kalina haaaaaaaawt
 
but I'm no longer a teenager so I guess I need to take more responsibility for my actions
 
@djsmiley2k ಠ_ಠ
 
@fredley hey some people like being bitten
 
@fredley This conversation is going to end well
 
@kalina Nope. I've survived 5 years as a twenty-something year old without taking responsibility.
 
1:43 PM
Yeah I get some kind of perverse pleasure from pain. D:
 
@fredley ok cool, this changes my outlook towards life a bit
 
@kalina Bitten? Maybe. Bitten by an enraged @kalina? Maybe not.
 
and don't ever grow up, just play at being grown up :)
 
does this mean I can keep telling everybody I'm 19 for as long as I keep looking 19?
 
1:44 PM
@kalina ProTip: Do stuff you enjoy, fuck the consequences. You only get your twenties once.
 
@fredley I wonder what sort of special power that gives you
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz Windows (XP, Vista, 7, 8) << this :(
 
@fredley woah don't go that far out, I have a lot of boundaries that I've set myself and must not cross
 
@kalina Just think, in less than a year, you'll be able to drink in America!
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz but I don't drink
what's the legal age for sex in America?
 
1:44 PM
@djsmiley2k It's a 15 year old game. I'm sure it will run in whatever flavor of WINE or emulator you care for.
 
isn't that 21 in some states too?
 
FAE
@kalina Varies by state
 
@kalina Depends on where you are and the age of your partner.
 
@kalina Ok fair enough. I guess I meant it more in a 'travel, do fun jobs, don't get tied down' sense
 
@kalina Nationwide, if both parties are 18, than all's well. If one party is under 18, then all kinds of strange regional rules come into play.
 
1:45 PM
@LessPop_MoreFizz mk
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz ok, how about the fact I'm going for 1000 gs in Star Ocean 4... aka the 400 hr job?
 
that's still 2 years later than most of the rest of the world
 
@kalina It's as low as 9 in some parts of the country, if you want to get technical. I don't consider that a sign of civilized society however.
 
are we talking about drinking or something else?
 
then again, most things I do break the laws of most of the civilised world
 
FAE
1:46 PM
@djsmiley2k Age of consent
 
9?? america?
 
Age of consent laws are flouted all over the place in America though. See: FLDS.
 
most importantly
I get to go home today
well, in 1h 45m
my train is in 2h 25m
and I arrive home in about 4-5 hours
 
hmmm
home...
 
hmmm
yes
it's that building that has all of my stuff in it
 
1:50 PM
For the most part, Ages of Consent in the US are 16-18, however, most states have a variety of special exceptions for teenagers within x years of age of each other, or marriages undertaken with parental consent.
 
3hr 25minish; home at 4hr35min ish
 
Home in ~3.5 hours
 
so, for the most part, two 14 year olds fooling around can't be charged with raping each other.
 
Then: STAR OCEAN.
@LessPop_MoreFizz Ah ok. Simular rules apply here, but I think they are wording which the judges are advised by
It's illegal, but they are unlikely to do anything about it.
else I'd be in big trouble... :o
 
@djsmiley2k Yeah, the only time charges ever end up getting filed is when dad gets angry about his daughter being violated or somesuch.
 
1:51 PM
@djsmiley2k are you now the youngest person in chat?
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz "Kids will be kids".
 
@djsmiley2k I know I would've been.
 
@kalina Doubtfu, I'm 29.
 
@djsmiley2k high-five old man buddy.
 
@djsmiley2k Arkansas, for example. If the older of the two is below 12, the younger has to be at most 3 years younger. No low limit given, even ...
 
FAE
1:52 PM
@djsmiley2k This chat is publicly googleable, in case you care. >_>
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz I saw aladdin in the cinema ;D
 
I'm not going to delve into understanding your previous comment more then
 
@FAE Ok thanks, I'll be carefull about exactly what I say :)
 
@FAE I don't think there's all that much to be worried about google knowing that I did things that most teenagers do when I was a teenager.
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz you did?!
OMG NEWS FLASH
@LessPop_MoreFizz is normal!
 
1:53 PM
@kalina Well I'm in the UK, and.... nothing is ever done here about things like that. Just had.... "fun" with a girl when I was..... 15? and she was 14. Nothing too serious but likely more than either parent would of been happy about.
 
Which I assume is also what @djsmiley2k meant
 
@kalina !!
 
but compared to some of the stories I heard at school, that was nothing. <shrug>
 
FAE
@LessPop_MoreFizz I wasn't exactly sure, hence the comment.
 
1:54 PM
@LessPop_MoreFizz Yeah. I mean, look at me - worst I've done was some weapon smuggling. We've all done that, right?
 
@djsmiley2k yeah I'm in the UK too, and if said laws were ever exercised then I would have had additional trouble when I was younger
 
@MartinSojka ... funny you mention that.
 
@FAE me either, I did have a brief "erm..." moment
 
Have I told the story here about why I haven't been to Canada in ten years?
 
FAE
@LessPop_MoreFizz Aye
 
1:54 PM
@LessPop_MoreFizz even if you have, you've got my attention now :D
 
@djsmiley2k Too bad. I am leaving for work.
 
Doh!
Theres no private messaging on here?
 
@djsmiley2k Negative.
 
@kalina hi5.
Anyway, I need to continue to tidy this office. Not looking forward to it though as its got to that point where I need to move everything down to storage :/

Q: Which melee(Monk/Barbarian) skills can't be dodged?

spartacusWith the addition of brawling in 1.07, its now possible for players to fight each other, and thus dodging now becomes a major factor in some matches. Its not immediately obvious which skills can't be dodged (for example, rend can't be dodged but hammer of the ancients can). What other attack sk...

 
1:58 PM
*yawn*
 
@djsmiley2k this is not a social network
 
More of an anti-social network if you will
 
@kalina yeah. Love how the replies work here. I was thinking "what is s/he replying to..." then highlight to the rescue! :)
