MaxofS2D seems like a nice guy who was given way too much power and privilege all too suddenly.
Like, he didn't go mad with power or nothing, he wasn't a dictator, but all the other mods and Garry coddled him [i]so much[/i].
So many people were banned just because they MENTIONED anything bad about him. People are stilled banned because for it, actually, but less so.
It was fucking crazy.
I never play the storyline in GTA games. I just like to mess around. Believe me, I've tried playing the storyline, I just don't like it.

Some tards in Lmao pics thought they were invincible or some stupid shit and then he banned them. Cue other idiots saying how shit a mod he is for doing what no one else really bothered to do.
[QUOTE=Funktastic Dog;44523066]Start with Breaking Bad, and The Wire and work downwards from there
Breaking Bad and is very similar to a movie, albeit a long one, and The Wire showcases why TV is such a great medium, because of all the stories it can tell.
You're allowed to hate it, and you don't even have to watch it, but I recommend watching those two.[/QUOTE]
Breaking Bad is actually the one modern TV series I enjoy, though I've only watched 4 episodes.

I was permabanned in that LMAO pics threat for an unrelated, very stupid clause, in which one of the mods interpreted something I did as "asking" for a ban.
People knew they were gonna get banned, but it just wasn't cool as mods should be open to criticism too.
It was a rebellion, that in the end... sorta worked, in a weird way.

Some mods should be open to criticism but I don't think Max banning people in Lmao pics is something to criticize if that's what you are meaning. I am not sure of what you mean though.
I mean a lot of the posters banned for that incident were only banned because they were complaining about the ban. They willingly threw themselves in. Go into my ban history and click the one that was "requested" if you wanna find out.
if you openly identify as a 'grammar nazi' and you antagonize people for the most banal and trivial stuff, then i reserve the right to make fun of you.

Fixed.
On forums I think people should be held to a pretty decent standard. But in games and such, getting the message out quickly is far more important.
But people that say shit like "You did good? Don't you mean well?" should stop.
I enjoy Sleeping Dogs more than GTA games. Beating up people with fancy moves is a hell of lot more satisfying than rotating on the spot and shooting.
i like brink not because of the gameplay but the mechanics and characters/environments.
[QUOTE=The golden;44524337]Expecting people to display an understanding of the English language that they should have learned in grade 4 is hardly "antagonizing".[/QUOTE]
i think he's referring to people who aggressively or rudely point out somebody's typing a word wrong or using incorrect grammar, which is weirdly common on the internet.
on the internet, especially forums and games, not everyone speaks fluent english as their primary language so it's perfectly acceptable for people to say "good" instead of "well" or "your" instead of "you're."
also who cares if you know what they're saying, it's an online message, not a goddamn essay. i remember in some anita sarkessean thread like a year ago some poster whose name i forgot came in and started to flame me and a bunch of other posters saying that our posts were infuriating to look at and stupid or whatever because we didn't use capital letters.
why don't i use capital letters? because this is a casual post. if i'm writing an OP or being more formal about something i'll use caps but right now it doesn't matter. why do i say "me and X" and "good" instead of "well" and end virtually every sentence with "and shit" or "or whatever?" because that's how i talk in real life.
- I hate people who buy games over vpn to scam the price, because the prices of the country they vpn through go up eventually. Price purchase parity yo, try buying a game online in South Africa now.
- I don't like Bastion. The gameplay is passable and the game floats by on presentation alone.
- Fallout New Vegas is an awful game with okay writing.

I've never understood why people want to play the storyline in a sandbox game like GTA or Saints Row. Maybe just to unlock weapons and cars that you'll get later on, but other than that, I don't see a reason (especially because most games like that also come with a cheat menu so you can just spawn the shit you need). The stories have their moments, but they really aren't that special.
I like immigrants and immigration
I think a lot of modern rap songs are much better than some to most old rap songs.

I think that as long as you can understand what someone is saying it really shouldn't matter.

Except you left in a comma splice.

Usually you can tell whether somebody didn't learn English as their first language, and when they're just being lazy.
guild wars 2 was not that good
i guess i was expecting guild wars 1 but with better graphics and gameplay...and what i got was a buttonmashing simulator with no build planning or build variety
i mean the game has good music, graphics and overall design choices aren't bad its just so damn dull and dissapointing
Hot weather sucks, and I think rainy days are the best.

i completely understand people who prefer cold weather, but rainy days? unless you have a car you literally can't do anything other than staying in and even then, rain is just annoying

The thing about rain in my experience is that it doesn't kill me.
And taking a long walk in rainy weather never killed me. (It only really bothers my phones touch schreen.)
Plus sitting inside in rainy weather is nice too.

Small rain (dribble basically) is really nice because it isn't enough to get your clothes drenches unless you walk for an hour.

Walking in the rain with no umbrella almost always makes you look badass

if i liked walking in the rain i'd go jogging in the gym showers
When I'm walking through the rain, sometimes I'll feel like Roy Batty and lower my head to the ground introspectively.

Finished watching Kill la Kill. Didn't like it. There were things to like, but more things to dislike.
