While I seriously doubt that the countless signals in the air are healthy for us, I don't really think they're enough to cause global famine(that's what global warming is for). Personally, I blame farmers. Seriously, how in the hell do you lose bees? Anyway. When will people learn that correlation & connection aren't the same thing and that you can't just measure 1 singular thing in an experiment. When you do that there's just not enough data to draw accurate conclusions. -------------------- "I don't understand a word you just said. Try speaking American. It's the only language I understand."

I doubt it. With that said, to save everyone a lot of time... Every OS sucks. Period.

Luminaire and Dark Matter are than enough to kill most of what you take on in the game. The only drawback to Magus was that he didn't have that many people he could Triple Tech with(and didn't Double tech with anyone), however, the 2 he could do were great. Dark Eternal(Magus, Lucca, and Marle) and Omega Flare(Magus, Lucca, and Robo) were pretty freakin' sweat(even though I hardly ever used double or triple techs out of a lack of necessity). -------------------- "I don't understand a word you just said.

Personally, I hate online games like World of Warcraft and such because they seem to lack a certain something.

Truthfully, I don't see why people who play games like Fable, World of Warcraft, and the Elder Scrolls game series wouldn't play D&D(other than possibly an inherent lack of imagination and/or willingness to deal with people on a person to person basis) I mean, they're all fantasy role-playing games. It's just a matter of the medium in which you play and who you play with. -------------------- "I don't understand a word you just said. Try speaking American. It's the only language I understand."

Again, I would like to apologize for my poll design. However, it is too late to do anything about it. I would like to know, though, how someone could not have heard of Dungeons and Dragons(Satan's game, as per that one-often use- parody) -------------------- "I don't understand a word you just said.

GURPS was definitely one of the things I don't miss from before my HDs got wiped. EDIT: On a sidenote, technically, there's more social interaction in RPGs like D&D than at parties and such. Also, it should be noted that Myspace is like a forum site, only more pretentious and with less usefulness.

GURPS - Generic Universal Role-Playing System. It is a point-based RPG system that is designed to where you "Can do anything", however, to this day still horribly imbalanced and flawed. Also it takes almost the entire day to do anything that resembles a decent(with the system's randomly estimated point-value system) character. RIFTS - an RPG system that uses these things called OCC(Occupational Character Classes) that aren't very balanced(especially anything outside of the Core Book) and a damage system that has 3(or so) different types(SDC, MDC, and Hit Points) For the Record: I play D&D and have played GURPS & RIFTS. The D20 system, while not perfect(nothing is) is overall better than GURPS(which I hate) and RIFTS(which I don't really care for either) To the White Wolf People: Never played White Wolf, and I forgot it even existed(much like that one about Vampires) To the D&D people: I know what some of you mean by it being hard to find people. Within 2 months, I managed to loose 2 of my 3 gaming groups. Unfortunately, most of the people in gaming group 3 aren't ones I'd like to play more than 1 game session a week with, so I've had to look for others. Unfortunately, the only player's I've found either aren't very good role-players(and/or have no real idea how many of the rules work, but pretend to) or are unable(or unwilling) to get together on a scheduled day. As a result, I have had to resort to playing with people whom I would normally(and a I few I actually have) stab with something. All I need is one more person who's stupid, a jerk, and/or completely unreliable. Oh well... To everyone else: Your input has been enlightening and I apologize for not making the poll more applicable to y'all. To the D&D People(Again): Would anyone be interested in scheduling an online D&D(not playing Wizard's online game, but actually playing table-top) with me? PM me if you're interested. -------------------- "I don't understand a word you just said. Try speaking American. It's the only language I understand."
