In case anybody cares, everything worked out with Cripplegate. I even got complemented by the dean for "mature behavior" and I wasn't even given a slap on the wrist.

I have psoriasis, it can be difficult to cope with sometimes.
Theres this kid in one of my classes who says everything is classic, for example. "Wearing sneakers? Classic."
I just want to punch him in the face whenever he does that.

If there's one thing I'll ever want to get off my chest on the internet it's the fact that I think MW2 rocks.
Matchmaking is great. I've never felt so liberated from staring for minutes - which eventually accumulates into hours - looking at an ever-expanding server list. I just want to get in there and shoot imaginary soldiers on a digital battlefield! I couldn't care less about what server I'm on as long as there are people to click on with my mouse (sometimes even in rapid succession!) I don't know why people are so opposed to this very simple way of getting into a game. But I guess there are some cons (Which are easily refutable, might I add!)
Cons about Matchmaking:
[b]It doesn't work properly!!![/b] - True, sometimes you get booted out from lobbies for no particular reason (there is always a reason, though, it's not based on magic. What are you a wizard or something? No you are not a wizard.) But similar things surely can occur to players using the good old dedicated server / server list combo. I mean, seriously guys... I think we have all been there. You're staring at that server list... "ah look at that...! 32 player Gulf of Oman server with >30 ping! let's join that and have a real go- **ERROR: COULD NOT CONNECT TO THAT SINGLE SERVER OUT OF ALL THE THOUSAND SERVERS IN THE WORLD AND NOW IT SUDDENLY IS IMPOSSIBLE TO CONNECT TO ANY SERVER AT ALL** -od time. This kind of thing happens in all games, not just the ones with matchmaking! Of course, matchmaking games are more prone to these kind of problems because matches are hosted on the computer of a lobby-member (and a lot of people don't have a real pc but instead run MW2 through emulators on their GameBoys, and their internet-connection is based on tying a string to an empty can, sniffing up the packets inbound and outbound from their router and vibrating said string in accordance). They are simply not hosted on some divine alphacomputerserver sealed tight in a hidden underground base on the border between France and Germany (or god knows where)! But thatserves as an excellent sequitoerasf to my next point!
[b]Host migrating!!![/b] - Ok so when someone whose computer is below sub par of everything ever, and great spirit of the lobby decides that this lucky somebody is with no doubt the best candidate host this match, then within a minute or two of intense gaming in slo-mo, the spirit just does a 180 and thinks "what was I thinking haha oh lawl this guy cant host for shit..." HOST MIGRATION occurs. The concept is a good one, right? Removing the burden on this poor dude's computer so that others with a greater pc and a FASTER internet connection (maybe even based on quantum-entanglement!!) can take over the task of being this fragfest's host? Noble as hell! Chernoble! OK But I was just about to stab this guy and (how the hell did you even get there behind him when the ping was like in the four digits ranges is beyond me though...??) Okay but stabbing this guy and then totally out of left field you see this host migration screen! Annoying, of course! There is not a single person in this world who would want to be bothered while clicking with their mouse on soldiers or pressing E repeatedly (maybe you're old school and changed it to V and unmapped Q and E and put a notice over the keys saying "you could once lean with these :'(" ). But anyway yeah host migrating is bad but it's also good, because you can get yourself into lots of wacky situations! Imagine, if you will, you and your adversary face to face, barrel to barrel, ready to click on your mouse and then WHAM host migration and you can both chuckle a bit from this and think, "ehehehe when that migration is done you can bet i'll kill that dude!" Funny, right? It's like a cliffhanger only in "REAL" LIFE! So yeah maybe your computer is a bit slower and maybe your internet is also a tad daft, so that other guy jumps back into the action before you and knifes you to killstreak 15 and beyond (nuke!). Ping is always a problem! Which brings me to my next point:
[b]Hosts have ping advantage!!![/b] - All internet games have pings. Almost everytime there will be someone with a better latency than you. You can deal with it or fold it out, bro.
Ok i won't write more than that but really, MW2 is not that bad, really. Really now. Really.
I hope you didnt read this
oh and I guess there are lots of more negative sides about matchmaking but I dont have time to refute them right now. You can do it yourself
You wrote a lot, but I saw the topic, and decided that it wasn't worth my time... I'm sorry, I'm here to read sappy stories about peoples sadness, not video-game reviews.
[QUOTE=CodeMonkey3;26540894]I'm so lonely it's crippling sometimes, like some nights I just, I don't know, sit there and feel like I'm never going to find a girl I can be open with.

Good :D
I'm fucking tired of those assholes who go "hey look who it is hurr durr why are you never in class it's a miracle a work of god."
It's hard staying in school when I have such a bad anxiety attack that I'm paranoid about [b]breathing[/b] "normally." Yeah I've started medication for it but fuck off you cunts it feels like my heart is going to rip out of my chest before I even walk through the front doors.
mmorpgs are wrecking my life, but i cant stop playing them, im a total fuck up irl and games make me feel better, i cant fucking sleep at night sometimes cuz im scared of what i'll become if i dont stop, this shit sucks. FML
I've been doing horrible in college. This was my first semester, and I know I'm wasting my parent's money. I'm also sure I'm going to be on acedemic probation, I haven't registered for the spring semester yet because I don't know how (I'm going to my college's registrar on monday for help with that), and I don't think I'm going to tell my parents. I'm not an idiot, I can do the work, its just that all these petty things have built up and slowly caused me to give up.. the last straw was when my best friend of 6 years said she didn't want to be my friend anymore.. I love her like a sister, and miss her a lot. :frown:
I know this seemed like a whiny blog post, but it made me feel a tad bit better to type it all out and post it. Thanks Facepunch.
I hate Mentally Challenged kids.
For example, in School, I took an improvisation class. Had a few good friends in it that we did excellent in it.
But the teacher paired me up with a group of 'tards that consist of:
- A stuttering midget chick who has something that makes her lips abnormally red.
- A weird chick who's a fucking crybaby and throws temper tantrums.
- A faggot cockhead who always thinks he's cool and gives shitty disses. (I threatened to rip his throat out and eat it and he wanted me to go a whole week without contacts)
The third one is the most interesting though, and I could go on and on about him. Should I?
There is this chick (completely not my type) at my school who has a crush on me, and she goes on about how much she loves me, she asks me out, I reject her, now half my friends (who dont even talk to her) hate me and wont say anything to me.
EDIT
wow... there seems to be a lot of sympathy for me, even though I was being a fucking asshole.
now school is finally over for the year, I can get away from the alienating, degenerate, lowbrow (average test result is like 50%) cheapass hellhole that is my school
I send you a simple text, not even asking you out unless you want to construe it that way, asking if you want to go to the symphony tomorrow. 12 hours later, no response, no message from you on facebook or on WoW. I'll just probably send another or ask you on one of those media again tomorrow, don't have much to lose if you really are ignoring me, cause chances are something just happened and you didn't or couldn't respond. But nothing went right today, and this only really added to the pile.
I miss how things used to be. Before I gave it all up.
I have a dad who is a doctor, and sends me to a top notch private school and wants me to get A+ on all of my subjects and wants me to become a lawyer or a doctor like him. I have no problem getting good grades (even tho I could barely talk in complete sentences when I was 7) but I REALLY don't want to become a doctor or a lawyer, I mean obviously financially these would be great jobs, but I always feel like if you hate what you're doing then why bother doing it? I've never really told him but it is still my goal (career wise) to become a game developer. I love playing games, and I love modding them. The bad thing is recently I told him I really wanted to be a doctor and now he's telling everyone that "My son is taking after me". I can easily talk to my mum about these things and she supports me all the way and I know she always will, but unfortunately thats not the same with my dad.
I just saw my dads internet history

What the fuck is wrong with you? You need help.
My dead-beat mentally unstable dad just got his retirement and disability money after 4 years of no income and leeching off our family, and now we have a power struggle in the house. My mom and dad argue fuck tons about the most stupid of shit but he is extremely paranoid and thinks that my mom is secretly giving my grandparents on my mom's side money. It's gotten so bad that my mom is planning on taking me and my sister and leaving him to live with our uncle.
Feels good to get that off my chest.
Sometimes I cut myself because people harass me over my sexuality

[QUOTE=Sir Tristan;26573972]I made a girl cry at school today by sarcastically calling her ugly
and I haven't the nuts to apologize
oh, woe is me[/QUOTE]
This probably isn't what you want to hear but one day I said something to someone sarcastically. That's all that happened, they didn't cry or seem offended or anything. But then later I realised that that's what most people were doing to me back when I was severely bullied. Since I was so used to people actually insulting me or beating me up, I assumed that the sarcastic people were still trying to be intentionally mean. I know it probably wasn't the same situation but I'm just saying.
I just want all you guys on Facepunch this. Not necessarily you - just because you don't think you're bullying someone, doesn't mean they don't consider you a bully. If someone asks you to stop because you're apparently bullying them, don't laugh since that's OBVIOUSLY not what you're doing. It makes them feel much worse. Just stop.
I trolled a kid to the point of suicide the other day, and laughed about it.
I also like getting girls whipped on me and playing them. I think it's because I was always bad with women, then this one really cute girl started talking to me a lot last year and I think I fell in love with her. She played me 3 times. She knew my feelings were real, but hers were shallow and selfish. I've since gotten over her, but now I can't feel that way about anyone. I don't have problems talking to women anymore. I'm very confident about how I look and act, but I just don't feel emotionally attracted to anyone anymore. I've had a few recent "encounters" but they don't mean anything. I stopped talking to the girls pretty much right after, and I feel like a douchenozzle.
