so how to fix it-.-?
lol, you're asking how to fix weapon recoil? Weapon recoil isn't a problem nor is it something to fix. It's there to make the game more realistic.

well killaman, guess we'll jus have to agree to disagree... but i just want to add "you dont click on any biased website"...so therefore you dont inform yourself of candidates? or do you just get your info from cnn or fox (dont even think i need to say this, but both, obviously biased). Just saying, look into where candidates stand on issues and hold em to what you support...... and no matter what candidate you look into, you could call their stance biased.

Well of course, everyone is biased to some degree. Also, I do not watch CNN or Fox News or any of those crappy News programs. I do read articles online though. I would never go to a politician's website to learn what they are about, because they are more inclined to spin the truth than other new organizations. I always look into what the candidates stand for, unfortunately there isn't a single presidential candidate that I completely agree with. I tend to be more of a conservative yet I hate the republican party for their stupid "christian values is the foundation of this country" crap. I like the economic ideals of a smaller government with less social systems (not to the extreme extent of libertarianism though), but I hate their social beliefs. They waste so much time being anti-gay marriage and worrying about "attacks on Christianity" that it is hard to take them seriously.

I've heard the name Romney but couldn't pick him out of a line up.
I don't go republican or democrat. I look up what each guy's stances are on various subjects. That's why I voted Obama. I don't agree with everything but he represented me better than McCain did so... yea.

I don't think I'll continue voting though. I voted Obama and although he did win, my redneck state voted more for McCain so my vote didn't do anything.

Yeah, there are pros and cons to the electoral college system. it was put in place because the average person at the time was deemed too uninformed to make the decisions. It is arguable if that is still the case though. A couple times a president won the popular vote but lost the election due to the electoral college system. The most recent being George W. Bush winning over Al Gore in the 2000 election despite Al Gore winning the popular vote. I didn't register to vote but even if I did, I have no idea who I would pick. the Republican field is a joke and Obama didn't do all too well with his 1 term.

... i posted a link, to ron pauls website, that explains.

http://www.ronpaul.com/on-the-issues/fiat-money-inflation-federal-reserve-2/

and fyi, i dont blindly suppport ron paul, ive looked into each candidate.... and i didnt even know there was an argument. thought this was a debate forum. 8)
Sorry, I don't click on links to a biased site. There is a lot of things wrong with Paul's ideals, especially returning to the gold standard. I can agree with him on a lot of things like getting troops out of foreign countries and reducing the debt, but a lot of his other policies are stupid.

lawl, I have done my research... but ron pauls honest money, probably best method. And I lost my credibility? tell me why more US soldiers support RON PAUL than any other candidate?

And I never once said THE dollar has been replaced in the international currency.... I said countries have been wanting and are trying to switch currencys for awhile and that the dollar is no longer accepted in alot of countries... umad you got to put words in my mouth? and the whole "cool 6 years ago"...as i stated, ITS OLD but thats how long this crisis has been predicted. But look it up, shit, china, russia and iran are the big ones, but theres roughly like 20 other countries who dont want to use to US dollar system... and you cant blame them.

anyways, im done debating with close minded fool such as yourself, made my point. have a good weekend  ::)
You call me close minded yet you blindly support Ron Paul and use his biased views in a debate. That's cute. Love how you had to resort to insults though, it shows who really won the argument.

Also,
I would love to know what this new and better system is that you speak of, yet don't explain.
Still waiting.

Are you kidding? at one time, when our dollar wasnt a big joke, other countries would be thrilled to accept the dollar.... like Mexico for example. shit.  ... but you want a link saying a country favors euro? shit, heres one of iran (ya its old, thats how old this news is and how long this shits been predicted)  even talks how Saddam tried the same thing, he obviously didnt succeed thou.

http://www.projectcensored.org/top-stories/articles/9-irans-new-oil-trade-system-challenges-us-currency/

and just want to add, I did say to research it... but obviously you didnt. so ill tell you again, RESEARCH IT before you blab about it.
Research what? The dollar has yet to be replaced. Umad that they aren't backing up what you're saying? Also, it's Iran, the challenge anything U.S. related. Also, you link a 2006 article? Come on, I thought you could do better than that.  Cool, they challenged it 6 years ago and we're still using it now. What does that tell you? That it is not likely to happen anytime soon. That just helped me prove my point. Thank you.

First you tell me to stop talking as if i know more about money and economy than the feds do? I never claimed that i know more than the feds, but then you go on to tell me since i know everything about the economy, I should come up with a better system.
I can see my words must of made ya a little butt hurt... sorry, ill put some lube on this time, ya ready?

1st off, I cant explain the federal reserve and how they operate any better than  ron paul

http://www.ronpaul.com/congress/legislation/audit-the-federal-reserve-fed-hr-459-s202/

and i love how trying to audit them is just a mission failure. heaven forbid ANYBODY really knew how they operated...

2nd off,  i dont have to think of a new system, somebody else already did, if people (like you) would wake up and look into who they are voting for and what they stand for, they would know theres already solutions.

Think ron pauls honest money issue about sums it up

http://www.ronpaul.com/on-the-issues/fiat-money-inflation-federal-reserve-2/

also theres a little more education bout the federal reserve in there, for ya.

peace,

soup
Ron Paul? You fucking use Ron Paul, the guy who wants to get rid of the Federal Reserve, to get your facts about it? That just lost what little credibility you had in this argument. You get his side of the story and that's it. If you ever wanted to know about them, you would research it from all angles, not just Ron Paul's biased angle.


Responses are in red. Also, seeing as you can't even hold up any of your arguments I am done here. I would love to know what this new and better system is that you speak of, yet don't explain.

This is the only thing I've read in the recent posts. I'd like to touch on a subject I know very little about. I'm not sure that it's capitalism that's the problem, isn't it more the Federal Reserve that's not even a part of the government that we owe all our debt to?
Yes, most of our debt is held by the Federal Reserve. That is a part of capitalism though. Fed is and isn't part of the government though. It's a tricky relationship. They can't print money with the government's consent, but they operate as a private organization and can buy debt. My guess is that the reason they hold so much U.S. debt is because they are so close to the actual government. they don't have to worry about not getting paid by the government because they actually make the governments money. I'm not going to pretend I know a lot about this situation, but that's what I've gathered. I don't believe the Fed is the biggest problem, because it is technically supposed to act in the best interests of the U.S. and the economy, that is assuming it has good leadership, which can always be a problem. Capitalism is flawed, there is no denying that, it is just the least flawed system we have come up with so far.

lawl. alot of countries are already trying to switch from the US dollar to euro or other currencies..

http://www.thepeoplesvoice.org/TPV3/Voices.php/2011/02/03/mexican-government-successfully-sheds-th

even mexico is starting to reject the US dollar. Research it. (not talking bout watching cnn or fox)

lawl again. What do you think the point is in printing money? and we put it into the economy when needed?... like, when gas prices go up? food? The more money printed by the federal reserve, the more debt for the country, the more the american's pay, due to your $$ being worth less.

i found this, this breaks it down better that I ever could. http://theeconomiccollapseblog.com/archives/it-is-now-mathematically-impossible-to-pay-off-the-u-s-national-debt

Well as history has proven again and again, 'printing' your way out of debt only prolongs the inevitable. I respect your views, but the whole 'lets keep trying a system that has proven failure'... can't comprehend.
your post is so faceplam worthy I don't know where to start.

OK, fist of all, a few placed not accepting the US dollar as currency means not. If I went to the UK and tried to pay with a US dollar they would tell me to get lost. That's a useless point. There is a difference between a country using a second form of currency and the US dollar being a world currency. Also, you have yet to post anything that that shows countries are favoring the Euro over the dollar, just an article, dated 2009 I might add, that say a few countries were considering it.

As for your second set of comments, you clearly do no understand how the Fed operated and what it is supposed to do. We print more money because money is constantly being destroyed, so to balance it out, we need to put more into the economy. Printing more money is also important when it comes to facing recessions. Yes, printing money causes inflation, but the extra money for the time being can help ease the pain of an economic crisis The idea of printing more money has nothing to do with paying off debt, you're stupid to think so. Stop talking as if you know more about money and the economy than the Fed does, you don't.

I never said anything along the lines of "let's keep trying a system that has failed." I'll tell you what, since you seem to know everything about the economy and how it is awful, YOU come up with a better system and then you can talk shit about capitalism all you want. Until then though, capitalism is the best we have.

I consider harming yourself to be irresponsible. I don't care if you can control the damage done by drugs, it's still there. Just like I consider smoking cigarette and drinking a lot of alcohol to be irresponsible. Also Dann, no idea where you got the superiority thing, that was never my intention nor did I ever hint at that in any of my posts.

This is how you control yourself. Be being aware and responsible. That's all control is: A sum of awareness and resonsability.

I could argue that doing drugs, especially dangerous ones like coke, is irresponsible to begin with. Sure you can control how much you do or how you do it, but ultimately you cannot control what happens while you're on the drugs nor does anything productive come out of doing a drug like coke. I understand you can control the negative effects of drugs, but you cannot get rid of them.

I think people over analyse drugs, I smoke therefore I philosophize. the debate of 'drugs are bad' isnt a debate. Medically they are bad, sure there are things worse then weed, but it is bad.
The one cigarette smoker who lives to 80 smoking daily will tell u smoking isnt an issue, the other 200 dead will say, nothing cos they are dead.
if you want to explain the effects it has on the mental state as being 'good or bad' is just as silly, as its relative, some people dont feel like altering there mental state, some do...

if I dont like a type of art, debating wont help... I just dont like it. be a good stoner and dont try to debate how good weed is to people, they have to find out for themselves if they are fans or not.
thats my opinion, arguing wether weed is good and bad is boring and endless, our time is best spent abusing no swearing server rules and photoshop nate into sexually awkward images.



I was at the hospital with mummy about 2 years ago doing tests on my lungs, when they found out I was working at just under half of what I should be ontop of my risk of asthma attacks the doctor told me that I shouldnt smoke weed but eat it.... she could prob have worded it better but I have doctors opinion that I should eat weed, if only I could have gotten a prescription. just a funny event, mum found it funny, having a doctor say its ok to eat weed as long as I dont smoke it...
Holy shit. Did skrewy just make a well thought out post? :O

You don't know how to explain it because it really isn't explainable, which leads me to believe your new view on life is not the result of drug use in any way. If I wanted to, I could trace a lot of personality changes back to useless things. I started listening to rock and metal in the 9 grade, so therefore my high school is what changed my perspective on music. Of course that's not true, I just happened to be there when my perspective changed. It sounds like you're trying to defend a bad habit by combining it with a good situation.

I'd agree with you on that, spanks, and I could see how you think they're a time waster, killa. It's just that drugs have really grounded my outlook on who I am - they've helped my self esteem a lot as well as giving me the ability to just be comfortable with who I am.
Not to be disrespectful but it sounds like you're just trying to justify your bad habit. How can drugs help your self esteem? How can a substance make you more comfortable with who you are? Do you only like yourself when you're high? Because realistically you're only in an altered state of mind while under the influence. Not sure how it would change your views while you're not under the influence. It is possible that your views on life changed, but it's not because of the drugs.
