@Yuuki Before
 
There. Lowballed the crap out of that offer.
 
Good news: my university is hosting a presidential debate.
Bad news: this being Texas, it's a Republican presidential debate.
 
@Yuuki you must troll that debate
Like @fredley to the @badpth power
 
12:15 AM
> "Barack Obama: great President or greatest President?"
 
@Yuuki a University near me is doing a presidential debate (as in post primary debate)
 
@Unionhawk Ours is the last debate before Super Tuesday.
 
Heh

Q: Why does my xbox 360 freeze in the midst of a game?

Chris MenardI check and didn't find an answer to what I'm about to ask So I have played games and they have frozen in the middle of doing something. Such as me playing Diablo 3 with my friend (local) and my console just froze on me. The power button didn't do anything, so I had to unplug it and restart what...

Why do I keep popping over here every few minutes at 1 AM...
 
@Texenox I have many replies, none of them are helpful
Actually hang on
@Texenox go the fuck to sleep
 
I couldn't find a good version of the Samuel L. Jackson version, so here's LeVar Burton.
 
Dragon Quest Heroes is pretty cool so far. Only played about an hour though.

how does movie night work?
 
@Alice There will be a livestream of the movie at the specified time
I think it will be linked on here, or maybe in meta
 
user58869
what if i have a suggested movie?
 
user58869
i mean, can i pick any film ever?
 
You can go read the question. It explains this stuff

Q: Disable Civ 5 screen jumping to battles, without disabling all animations

Andrew DillonBasically like the title, I want to make it where my screen doesn't jump to all the little AI or other player battles, but by choosing quick battles that completely disables all animations. Is there a best of both worlds where I can still see the fighting that's on my screen but not have to get p...

Q: The Dig, the control panel in nexus puzzle

KhrysIn the game The Dig, where do you get the clue to solve the puzzle in the control panel in nexus? Video here: https://youtu.be/mIUtTLzHl58?t=822 When I played the game I hadto grab a walkthrough just for that part. But nowdays this still bugs me.

 
Shovel Knight is loads of fun.
 
@Wipqozn Thanks!
 
@twobugs I'm just imagining an answer being written as "I have tested this myself, and currently there is no way to PENIS do so".
That may be loosely based on an answer of my own.
 
1:06 AM
Welp, the seller definitely didn't want to go that low.
Damn, those realtors. That was a lot of pressure to up my offer.

Q: What happens to the investments into my city if I join another one?

BulliedByModsI have played alone so far and made some considerable investments into my city, that you get during the Tutorial. If I join a city created by other players, what happens to the investments in my own one? Will those have been in vain or will they be saved until I leave the other city?

 
Hapacatacabapah.
 
@Frank Where does it copy from?
 
Peeled straight from a youtube video
 
@Frank Oh, that's unusual.
Never think I've encountered an example of something being plagiarised from a video.
 
Same thing, different video.
 
Welp.
I would, but I'm less than 300 REP short.
fml
 
1:16 AM
There's already an approval on it, or I wouldn't be asking for rejects.
 
@Frank I know, I was saying I'd reject but I'm short of the required reputation level.
 
@Texenox Yes, but there's more than you here in the Bridge.
Someone will pick it up and reject it.
 
During all of this Halo 5 hype, I have to say that I really like the Halo Wars cinematics.
The game was surprisingly fun for a console RTS too.
 
@Yuuki It has microtransactions. I sigh, and mark it as never to be touched.
 
@Frank Halo Wars?
Or Halo 5?
'Cause I don't remember microtransactions in Halo Wars.
 
1:20 AM
5
 
Of what kind?
Haven't heard anything about it.
 
Iirc, cosmetics and early unlocks of stuff you unlock with time anyway
 
So cosmetics and convenience microtransactions.
I think I'm okay with that considering they promised no paid map DLC.
 
1:39 AM
Welp. Highest I was willing to go was 295, and I could've gotten the place for that.
Which is still 14K below asking.
And I turned it down.
Something about it just smells off. I don't know what.
 
@Frank could be all those skeletons i left in the closet
 
@GodEmperorDune I knew it was something like that!
 
in unrelated news, republican presidential debates are much more fun than democratic ones
 
Still, if putting an offer in on a place like that makes me feel that nervous, I think I'm either doing something that needs rethinking, or I should listen to my gut.
 
gut is pretty much always right
 
1:45 AM
@GodEmperorDune Unless your micro-biome is off.
 
So I keep looking.
 
@Frank with purchases of that magnitude, you better make sure you're completely happy with it
 
@Chippies And this place has had questions from the first time I saw it.
 
@Frank I'm not ready to become an adult.
I don't want to be an adult yet.
 
@Texenox Welcome to my world.
I'm 32, going on 12.

This does not provide an answer to the question. — Texenox 2 mins ago
@Texenox Dude. Leave these comments to the low quality queue.
This helps absolutely nothing at all.
 
life hacks is hilarious
 
@Aequitas And so, so sad.
 
i asked them how to blow my nose hahaha
 
3:14 AM
@Frank Sometimes, I get the feeling that he just continues to comment on these posts so he can get attention whenever we tell him to stop.
Because several people have already told him more than once not to comment, or at least stop commenting for some period of time.
 
@Yuuki Well, I'm going to start flagging them soon.
They're completely non-constructive.
@Yuuki And he continues to say he'll stop, and then continues anyways.
 
Exactly. It's starting to sound more and more like an attention-grabbing maneuver.
 
watchu guys talking about
 
ugh, goddamn amc online video
what kind of shitty player doesn't let me fast forward?
 
@GodEmperorDune try pushing buttons like right or the numbers

there is a draggable progress bar
problem is it doesn't actually change the playback point

user15026
I'd be okay with more good stuff in Netflix.
 
@AshleyNunn did you do the time twitchign tower in kol yet?!
 
3:27 AM
Sony banned him for the name "MC_Cum"
 
@twobugs why are you friends with someone so dumb?
2
 
@GodEmperorDune That's...a really good question, I'd say.
Dammit, @Yuuki, why are all your movie nights on weekends where I'm busy?
 
@GodEmperorDune He's a funny guy, he just likes to do stupid things sometimes and then say "well it let me do that!!!! its not my fault!!!!"
 
@twobugs that is some piss poor logic
 
To be fair, he would have been probably been banned for his Destiny Clan name
"Well Hung Futanari"
 
3:31 AM
oh boy
this guy is really into dicks

user15026
@GodEmperorDune haven't had time wi5g visitation stuff today and funeral stuff tomorrow.
 
@AshleyNunn my condolences
sorry to pester you about it
 
Oh apparently maintenance is happening and "you're banned" is one of the default messages
 
@twobugs That's...insanely bad UI.
 
maybe if it scares his friend into not using inappropriate names....
 
3:44 AM
@GodEmperorDune Friends like that think.
They think it's cool, and go do it.
 
yeah i suppose you're right
 
Nope, he's banned.
I won't deny his name is bad, but it's absolutely ridiculous if his name is inoffensive given the names I see on PSN regularly
Just yesterday I played with Phucking3itches
 
this is one of the reasons i stopped console gaming
 
I mean, I don't have a problem with strict naming rules, if they're clearly stated and fairly enforced.
And it pisses me off that a significant portion of my Destiny fun is over now that my dumb friend got banned :(

I wish there was a way to see how good you are at Othello.
 
does othello give rewards or just team points?

But can Falco shine Fire Fox or Fire Bird? I theorize yes because shining gives 1 frame of intangibility, but it ...

Indeed
 
@Arperum the worst part is actually administering medication to a cat
they know those pills aren't food, no matter how well you try to disguise them
 
@Yuuki But I'm not trying to grab attention.
 
Yup.
 
10:30 AM
I just wanted to help in some way.

cat ate everything, but the pill.

the cat ate crunchie around the pill

11:07 AM
@Chippies I hate everything.
I hate the fact that I can't even keep my word most of the time.
 
that's because you focus too much on pleasing everyone, while trying to be silly for no reason. You take these memes and use them as if that's who you are
and you just end up not thinking clearly and doing stupid shit
 
Yeah, maybe that is a bit much.
Now, on the other hand, what about these comments?
Good first answer. Welcome to Arqade! — Texenox 41 secs ago
I'm trying to be more encouraging.
 
I'm not one to ask about comments, as I hardly comment on anything at all
I only comment if I find the question interesting and I want more information to answer it
there's no need for me to do small talk when someone else will do it anyway
and if you're not good at this kind of small talk, then just leave it to others
I lurk from the shadows and answer questions that I find interesting
I think another issue is that you're trying too hard to be involved with the site
 
@Chippies I like the site a lot. I want to try and be as valuable of a contributor as possible.
 
you're answering questions and commenting and trying to flag stuff and review edits all the time
 
11:13 AM
@Chippies Not edits.
 
which is great, but by doing so much, it all loses quality
 
But in terms of flags, I've already got over 700 helpful flags.
 
Do you know how many I have?
34
 
@Chippies rip
 
you can contribute to the site without doing everything
and as time goes by, you'll get more comfortable doing all these things and it will be easier
 
11:16 AM
@Chippies The badges encouraged me in the first place, now I just do stuff because I want to.
That's the thing. I just want to be helpful.
That's not too much to ask, is it?
 
I guess people mostly have an issue with your comments
and you don't need to use comments to be helpful for the most part
 
@Chippies I still need to figure out what I'm going to do about that.
 
don't comment unless your comment is really needed
I generally only comment if I need to know something that no one else has asked
if it's a question that needs flagging, I don't comment, because someone else will
 
@Chippies Like on unclear questions?
 
@Texenox yeah, or clear questions, but lacking info to narrow down the issue
 
11:19 AM
@Chippies I see.
 
of course, I'm not the best example for contribution on Arqade
I'm pretty passive and apathetic
but I think everyone needs to be a little passive and apathetic to handle the internet
 
@Chippies Good point.
But seriously though, THESE FLAGS
And that's in, what, 3 months?
 
Idk how I feel about them flags tbh
I could get a high number of helpful flags if I camped new questions as well
of course someone has to do it, so meh
 
@Texenox It's not @Chippies having not enough flags. There is no such things as not enough flags. Having never flagged, edited or voted on anything doesn't make you any bit less worthy of using the site.
You choose how much you want to do.
If someone only answers questions, never upvotes anything, that's fine.
 
11:29 AM
@Arperum I agree with that, I never said it was a bad thing.
@Chippies OH MY
That was aimed at me.
 
@Texenox the image? wasn't aimed at anyone

@Chippies What kind of work do you do?
 
@Arperum stocking shelves in a big grocery store
today began my 2nd week of work there
 
@Chippies Mostly because it's something I guess? And anything is better than nothing?
 
@Arperum I had applied to pretty much everything in the area since february, this was the only place that hired me and only because the students went back to school and they actually had a job fair where they just gave interviews to everyone and hired pretty much everyone that came
 
@Chippies That's a clear yes. No secret passion for filling shelves?
 
11:44 AM
@Arperum nah, but I do like the overnight part
 
cc @KevinvanderVelden @Yuuki @djsmiley2k
 
I'm not much of a morning person and there's less people to deal with on overnights
it's not a bad job, there are certainly much worse options
 
@Chippies Nightwork is fun. I've done that as a student filling carts that are then send of so people can fill shelves in shops :p
In a fridge.
 
we fill carts and shelves ourselves :P
 
@Chippies I filled carts in the stocking center. So those were then shipped of towards the specific shops.
 
11:46 AM
we got palettes of stuff that we load onto carts and then throw all the boxes in the isles where they should go. When all the palettes are offloaded, then we stock the shelves
 
@Chippies you put yourself on the shelves? :o
 
@KevinvanderVelden that would have worked if I had said "shelf ourselves", but in the current case, "shelves" is a noun, so it doesn't work
but we can get on the shelves if we want to, no one cares
everyone in the night crew is batshit crazy
the kind of people you don't see working day time
 
@Chippies Actually, 'shelf' is always a noun. The verb is 'shelve'. It's still wrong if taken as a verb though, because of subject-verb agreement
 
@PrivatePansy Yep, you are correct. Still though, 'shelves ourselves' doesn't work as a verb-noun combo
I'm too tired to think properly and too tired to go to sleep
 
But it's close enough so shrug

@Unionhawk 10/10 would listen to music again
GGNintendo as well
nice way to advertise
 
SotG is fantastic
 
So, my friend definitely got PSN banned for his name. Is it possible they'll let him change it? Or is he just SoL?
 
@twobugs He'd probably have to talk to Sony about it.
 
I convinced him to call the help line today (he initially wasn't even going to do this, just complain about his ban)
I tried to explain to him that you can't really just add a simple word filter because people can easily circumvent those
 
Moooooooom I got banned - your friend 2015
 
12:27 PM
I mean, his name was MC_Cum. Yeah, that's pretty juvenile and silly. Whatever. But given the kind of names that are apparently acceptable, it's nonsense to ban him for that.
 
Also apparently there may be a TP version (HD or rerelease) coming to Wii U but currently it's speculation
Based on files that exist in the eshop now
 
I regularly see people with blatant weed/other drug references, profanity, murder stuff, etc., in their names. Is this the typical American "Kill as many people as you want on TV, but keep the disgusting sexy stuff away!"?
 
Possibly
Seems likely
 
Perhaps this is grounds for a question - "What can be done if a PSN account is banned?"
I doubt the answers will be very positive, though.
His attitude of "it's not my fault because they let me make this name!" is kind of frustrating, too.
 
-7, first comment "don't get banned in the first place LOL"
(inb5)
 
12:32 PM
I mean, they can't word filter out "cum", otherwise you kill multiple serious words like "circumvent", "cumulative", etc.
 
Simple word filters don't work
 
Nintendo tried a blanket word filter like for Pokemon (gen 4 or 5 I think), but they made a pretty funny oversight
 
It probably raised an automatic flag
 
You couldn't trade a Cofagarius unless it had a nickname :P
 
You know, like in comcast's name filter, where a change that trips it is sent to a manager
 
12:35 PM
I'm just sad because I was having a lot of fun playing Destiny with him and one of our mutual friend and this is probably going to kill their interest very quickly
Oh well. Halo 5 in two weeks (although knowing my friend, he might get banned from that too...)
 
Clearly all names should have Bacon in them
 
That's getting a little too close to a Monkey's Paw wish
 
@Baconlord
 
@Unionhawk Yes?
 
12:51 PM
@twobugs the other names are also unacceptable and, if flagged, will also get banned
That's how those things work, get noticed, get banned
 
If they uphold my friend's ban I'm going to flag every single name like that I see :P
 
@twobugs every single bad name I hope?
And, you should regardless
 
Well, it doesn't bother me if someone is named "Phuqing3itches" or whatever. I just think they're a colossal idiot.
I mean, I definitely flag offensive names, but ones that are bad just because "profanity" or whatever are weird.
 
Being a colossal idiot is a bannable offense I'm pretty sure
 
It should be
But profanity is
 
12:55 PM
The joke here would be a mod banning me from chat
 
I mean, I see so many like "xXxWEED-_-BLUNTSxXx" I'm numb to it
 
Maybe he's in Colorado
 
Maybe he is, but I think using blatant drug references is slightly worse than mentioning a normal bodily function.
I mean, if MC_Cum is too vulgar, would Sir_Seaman have been better...?
 
Yes
For it is PG
Even if it's a reference, it's still a reference
 
@twobugs Actually, that depends. Do they sound like Leonard Nimoy?
 
12:57 PM
Right, I keep forgetting we maintain the PG rating in games where you murder people violently
 
Psn is pg even if destiny is M
 
@twobugs well no
They maintain the pg rating in PSN
 
Well this gets back to my earlier question of "So are murder references allowed?"
 
Which has games where you don't murder people violently
 
Because I see lots of like "KILLA69GOKU"
