What new or improved features are in explorer? In the display settings, what are the color schemes? How long do you expect a service pack to be released after the official release? How much space is it taking up on your HDD? ____________________ `~CaR-CaT`

I can rekate by saying that I'm colostraphobic and refuse to get in an elevator. It was caused by me being trapped in one for a short time. And then there's a fear of spiders I have, and I have no reasoning behind that. ____________________ `~CaR-CaT`

Uh, pencils aren't actually made with lead. In fact, they've never been made with lead, as the "lead" was graphite even back in the 1500's, when the pencil was invented.

Any way, I'm not entirely sure if this is, indeed, an irrational fear, but I don't like heights. I'm not scared of them in a way that I wouldn't get on a plane, but I certainly feel uncomfortable on, say, the edge of a steep cliff or a skyscraper. Now, I'm not really sure about this because I hardly find myself in situations like that, and the last time I was anywhere near a steep cliff was many years ago, so I'm not sure if I would react the same way now.

God, heights. I get queasy if I'm too high up... I'd never be able to go in a skyscraper or something. Being in a plane is bad enough, especially if it's in turbulence.

I have the same exact problem with planes. Although it's not a problem of heights as much as I hate turbulence. Just don't expect me to climb a large ladder :p

All across Louisiana if it's not snowing one week, it's spring tine the next. I swear, the weather in this state more unpredictable than a ramdom number generator. This week it's cool but not cold. God know what'll be next. ____________________ `~CaR-CaT`

This was the first forum I've joined on the internet, so CarCat (as stupid and random as it is) is what I chose. I have many other though, and have been to great deal of forums after this, I haven't used "CarCat" sinse . ____________________ `~CaR-CaT`

I live in the middle of nowhere, and I'm still living with my parents (primarily because I'm 14 and that's my only option.) I'll try to move somewhere north later on in life. I've recently moved here, but it wasn't a very distant one. It was basically starting over, in the same nowhere - different house. New people - same attitudes.

In all cases, I hope your move goes well!

I suggest that a message saying you've entered an insecure password be put in place of the more extreem IP banning.

Thanks for pointing that out, Capitan Obvious.

Or maybe people could just read the page. It's not that hard.

okay, i fully agree that having persons entering short passwords can be annoying, and it's more annoying when they do even when there's a warning. so you need to take extreme measures to avoid them to do so. i fully agree.

You're both missing the point. How's entering an insecure password being ban worthy? This is a simple step down from that measure and onto a lenient system where, idiotic passwords are still not exceptable, but the people are.

Of course, to not make this completely biased, why would we want people who have no "common sense" to be posting on this board anyway? This method has clearly banned people who couldn't spell for their life, or were in a hurry to register.

The point I'm trying to get across is that password does not always define the user. A simple warning system can be put in place.

I've found the usefulness of learning C# and PHP at the same time, likely because their syntax has similarities. Although I've never learned C

The irony, of course, is that somewhere along the line, these industries were making "record profits". Also, what cause is there to not allow industries, which will ultimately fail and suck up more tax payer money, to die? If no one is buying their products, their productivity is horrible, and they are worsening the situation, why can't we let them DIE?

Great, because if that is the case, maybe they'll work for no heat sink at all...

Ok, maybe not that far, but still.
