#281554 Casual marijuana use causes brain abnormalities in the young

Posted by Hunter on 16 April 2014 - 11:34 AM

which is in contrast to several other studies done with weed over the years.

 

Every article I have read on this claims that there is insufficient evidence to prove any serious long-term effects. Either that or it says things like "increases the risk" psychosis, alzheimers etc. But by how much? Eating fatty foods increases your risk of heart disease, drinking alcohol increases your risk of liver failure, artificial sweeteners increase your risk of cancer (although if you have sugar instead that can also cause cancer/make you fat and in turn cause heart disease etc.). 

 

Are we really supposed to stay away from all these things just because they might "increase our risk" of getting a disease by an unknown amount? As long as you don't go overboard and have too much of any of them then you should be fine. 

 

That's my thoughts on the matter anyway.

#264724 Are we going to see a Wii U SKU this year

Posted by Raiden on 04 January 2014 - 11:51 AM

I know Reggie and he told me but swore me to a super secret pinky swear to not say anything. Good thing he only knows me by my name NOTRYUDO but he told me on Feb 30th Nintendo will announce a Wii U with USB 18.0 16GB of DDR5 ram. It will use the Nvidia Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious 348957349856734867GTXYZ custom GPU. A CPU with infinity cores and a lolipop holder with a fleshlight like controller. Will cost 599 US dollars and 2 french dill pickles.

Posted by Hunter on 02 January 2014 - 09:37 AM

Yes because two generations of consoles being the weakest = always being the weakest.

#242203 gettext is undefined, feld0 stop being a bad admin

Posted by Hank Hill on 28 August 2013 - 08:24 AM

I had to go all the way to MLPForums (Something I really, really didn't want to do) and sign up just so I can get Feld0's attention.

Frickin pathetic.

Oh, and I had to post this from the mobile version of the website too, which is really annoying.


#239417 PSVITA PETS

Posted by Guy Fieri on 15 August 2013 - 12:15 PM

PSVita Pets is simply a game of wonder and innovation. Let me explain. The game's beginning line of "Hey buddy, where ya been?" shows a long lost bond between a human and his pet dog. But it also deals with darker topics, "I bet there's plenty of stuff to sniff in here!" is a line hinting at the dog's long going and painful cocaine addiction. A scene where the dog finds food in a garbage bag, shows that the story line involves a family that can't afford the profits to supply their dog/dogs with the proper food. "Call 9/11, I look important" is a subtle way of the dog explaining that he needs 9/11 to prevent his terrorist plot to blow up the old Dollar Store where he bought the costume from. "Does my butt look big in this?" shows an example of the game's drama, as the dog cares emotionally about his rear end looking gigantic or not, due to currently unknown reasons.

 

 The game's shopping portion is also another aspect. As the family in the game is poor, the money they earn to buy said costumes are from low end jobs and illegal aspects. "For a human, you're pretty awesome", is the dog misunderstanding life, thinking this is how a dog's life is, when it should really be much better. The story later turns into a dungeon quest, as they search for treasure to hopefully improve their financial state. The "It's a bit spooky in here" line confirms that Mr.Bones and his wild ride will appear in the game. The AR part of the game, shows the dogs overjoyed about what a dog's life should really be. Compared to the storyline's plot, involving many dark and emotional tones. Becoming best friends with your dog involves caring for them, and improving your life to a point in which the dog is living a regular, love filled life.

 

 In the end, PS Vita Pets is a contender for game of the year 2013, let alone best game of all time. With many serious, emotional, and dark tones. It seems to be a creation of poetry of the highest quality, even above works such as War and Peace.

 

 

I can also confirm there will be a crossover between PS Vita Pets and DuckTales called Duckita Tapets. Someone needs to photoshop upload the cover of the box art.

#175706 Reasons why this forum is imploding

Posted by Auzzie Wingman on 24 February 2013 - 06:05 PM

Hi, I'm Auzzie Wingman. I've been here on the Wii U Forums for a long time.

I'm not one of the most respected, I'm not one of the elite, I'm in no way saying I have a level of superiority above anyone. I am human and prone to error. I tend to care for every individual on this site, and for the site itself. So how about a little story time before I absolutely tear everything to pieces.

When I first joined, this site was quite literally a halcyon of the internet. Now, for those who don't know, a halcyon is period of utter serene peace, or something to that effect. The arguments were naught, the place wasn't spammed. "On the Wii U Forums? NO WAY!" Well yes, it is true. Such a thing existed here.... until Victorious V and nl had the first ever biache fight in the chat room. Mind you, such biaching was really tame to half the stuff that happens now.


And now, for the reasons that brought you here. My perspective on why things are DYING.

* Staff - It's a bit hard not to start with the staff. Of the six staff that can actually do something, only 3 of them are actually active. Mournblade is working his ass off for the most part, and Andy and Joshua tend to be on when he isn't. At least for the most part there is moderators around the clock. The problem is that there aren't active admins. I managed to send Feld0 and email today, and that's why he appeared today. AMAC and Crackkat have just disappeared off the face of the forums altogether.

We need a more dedicated administrator in the event that Feld0 can't acquire AMAC's services anymore. The same goes for the fourth moderator position if he can't get Crackkat.

* Threads - Yeah, threads. There are a number of problems going on with threads. First off, spam threads. We don't have a section for spam threads, so don't make them. And you wonder why people are calling this site crap. Didn't happen back in the day when quality existed, why did it ever happen. Then you've got Zinix's threads. I'm all for news, but there's also this thing called taste, and Zinix, I can tell you are purposely posting news that no one truly wants to hear. Anything that sounds immoral or destructive, you feel you need to post NO YOU DON'T STOP IT. Repeat threads. I think everyone needs to get over them. It's proven that search can be iffy and even more people don't know it exists. Merge whenever it gets found and never speak of it again, stop complaining about doubles. Do what Hunter did yesterday.

On another note, there really hasn't been enough meaningful topics out there. If you have an idea on how you can get a fulfilling discussion going, then post it. I'm more than ready to talk, practically everyone who uses the C3 is ready to discuss, heck, the people migrating from 3DSF lately more than likely have something constructive to say from where I'm sitting. I mean just look at 3Dude. 3DSF migrant who's been making great to hear news threads about the Wii U.

* Posts - First off, be constructive. Positive or negative, try to post things that actually make sense. No spam, no complete hatewagons. It's silly and degrading to everything, so don't troll. Also, cut the fanboyism. Saturn, this one is mostly to you. No need to be "Blame microsoft" or however it is that you do it. This might've been before you joined, but there is actually a strict "No bashing" policy on this forum. This also goes to several other members who have been invading the Hardware section and complaining "it's about the games, eff specs talk".

* Members - This is the big one. It involves all of you, no exceptions, not even Feld0, not even Epic Kirby, not even Hari nor Noonabites. EVERYONE. This is a public zone. You can hide behind your monitors but it's no different from being in school or a convention talking on stage. You can be yourself, but there are expectations of you from everyone else. If you feel that you aren't meeting those expectations, then perhaps you should show restraint. By expectations, people expect you to be polite. If you're gonna be aggressive then give a good reason to be aggressive. Don't troll others opinions and understand they aren't you, they might get it and they might not. If you feel offended, then let people know, they can't be expected to know if you don't say something. Stop working around behind each other's backs godamnit.

* Be part of the community - Say hi to people in introduction threads, jump into chat when you can, go into threads you don't usually go to, have fun in the forum games and roleplay section, put up a status update, change your profile every once in a while, discuss, post, be bothered. Simple.

Okay whatever. You've pissed me off. This is what you get.
