I've never been much interested in other MMOPRGs. I have my hands full with this one.

Ooh yeah I forgot about the geek.videosift.com definition, otherwise I would've mentioned it as well. It does seem to be a general trend to not include arts and literature, and then have separate categories ( seeing as one trademark would be the dedication to one thing and mere interest in others ). But it also comes down to how those things are approached. If it's some hip gossip without the down-and-dirty awesome details, can the article still be called geeky? Not in my opinion, but it seems to be such in other's.

Thanks for sending a link to him.

I didn't expect the video to be interesting to other than BSG fans, honestly. I didn't think much of her until I learned more about her--now I think she's captivating.

I like reading coolhund's point of view, but I disagree with most of it : ) The civil war has already begun, people will die in large numbers either way, the sevice(wo)men have already died for nothing (unless you count taking down Saddam, which was a double-edged sword) or, if not for nothing, for Americans and Iranians and everyone else to go in and try to make Iraq into whatever they need it to be to fit their goals. It's true people will bitch whatever the US does now. So, we'll have to deal with it. I know there are actually still some people who want the Americans to stay and appreciate what help they've brought, but I don't think they are in the majority any more. As for the rebels, they are not a single group of people and have many differing goals-- some just want power, some want something other than democracy, some just want the Americans out. I seem to recall learning about American colonists killing Whigs and anyone percieved as "Loyalists" back in the American Revolution (I could be wrong; I'm no historian).
Lastly, you don't join the military to "bring freedom and democracy to other countries." While the US military has indeed done that in the past, the purpose of the military is defensive (protect America from enemies foreign and domestic) and offensive (protect friends and allies of America and American interests). Being nice and helping other countries is lofty goal but what America does and when with its military always depends on the civilians in charge-- the government and Commander In Chief (president).
Don't kid yourselves-- while the US did free many countries from tyranny in the past, it wasn't because "that's a good thing." What the US does, both good and bad, is because someone thinks it's in their best interest. Most other countries are the same way.
As a German, if you are grateful be grateful for this: that the Japanese bombed Pearl harbor and got the Americans involved. They may not have otherwise.
All the above is just my opinion.

4. Please do not post entire episodes of television shows. That's what BitTorrent is for.

But having said that- i'm interested what others think. This is clearly in violation of that rule, but...

don't sweat it man, shit happens. Also it was cool of you to apologize and proves your the kind of person the sift needs.

Enjoy the rest of your weekend and welcome to videosift.

Jokes aside: Here is another example from the good book: Once again this is only translated to the best of someones ability to mean the same as the original, so by gwaans standards its probably completely false, yet I quote:

Rest assured that Believers (Muslims), Jews, Christians and Sabians - whoever
believes in Allah and the Last Day and performs good deeds - will be rewarded by
their Lord; they will have nothing to fear or to regret.

Notice that it doesnt say "..OR performs good deeds" Good deeds doesnt count, unless you believe.

Nothing to fear. interesting. in other words belief on its own, is what keeps you from hell and damnation, nothing else it seems, will do the trick

You have to be a believer, You have to be a believer, YOU HAVE TO BE A BELIEVER. And that seems to be the only thing you really have to be. Once again, That principle is the endlessly repeating mantra of the holy books. The most important virtue of them all, more important than not killing people, not lying to people or helping other people MORE IMPORTANT THAN ANYTHING, is the virtue of faith, the belief in God.

As long as you are gullible enough to believe my bullshit, everything will be fine.

in my experience it's hard to be completely proud of anything you make but i'm hoping one day I will be

I hope I finish it too, got xmas coming up and with distractions it's possible to lose momentum, half the reason why I made a vid out of it is so I could feed off the interest of others. I hope you get back into it, max hasn't changed much since 2.5
