Also, people who could not see I was joking in the last thread are stupid.

Okay, I re-read what you wrote, and deleted the diatribe I had here.  My message was not directed towards you, and I could tell you were joking.  However having had the phone call from the police telling me I needed to come to the local hospital to pick up my wife after an altercation with a student (pulled a knife on her - he'll never sing baritone now that she's finished with him), when I hear someone make a comment like rant-repellant did I feel very strongly about it.  Yes, I too was an angry kid, and I too hated a lot of things in school - including my fair share of teachers.  But the worst I wished on them was filling their water pitcher from the toilet

However, if you're just going to go around calling people stupid, that's not winning you any points either...

Re: Angus's Application

I'm glad that this came to a peaceful conclusion. I don't want to start my MG career by alienating one of the main members.
And yes, I don't usually call people stupid, but I made an exception for what I saw as an unreasonable lashing out. Now I understand your reasoning. I accept your apology and offer one in return.

Re: Angus's Application

No problem - I could've made that whole thing easier if I quoted the original post instead of just hitting reply, since it did appear that I was replying to the last in the thread.

Anyway.. how about the weather? :>

What grade does she teach, that's some serious stuff right there.

Re: Angus's Application

Welcome to the }MG{ forums, Angus! (Sorry, a bit late, )

Your app looks nice, but I have yet to see you in IRC or in game (I keep weird hours, however). As said before, come hang out on #mercenariesguild and let us get to know you better.

Since the obligatory hovel has already been given out, I, the unofficial granger-hander-outer, give you a free  ! He's cute, he's cuddly, and he's house-trained, but don't be alarmed if you wake up one morning and find he's Barricaded you in.
Good luck!

Re: Angus's Application

Press shift five or so times in rapid succession and wait for the option to pop up? Or look through control panel under keyboard or accessibility options.

Re: Angus's Application

You'll need java or you can find another client other than the browser based one.

Google would help give you a better list than I can. I also believe there is a list on wikipedia.

You'll have to wait longer than 20 seconds to recieve a response. Also, just hang out and wait for a conversation if you can. That is why most prefer other clients to the webclient so it can be kept up and running idly.

Yeah, I was in a bit of a hurry there.
I was just checking if anyone was there.

Re: Angus's Application

I would be the original Angus [Young] of Tremulous. I would have replied sooner, but I am working at a local camp as a counselor, and when I come home on Saturdays I forget to check some forums.
Anyways, welcome.
