When I'm drunk and I go to bed sometimes I have crazy dreams about going to a water fountain and not being able to quench my thirst or opening a fridge full of 20 oz bottles of Mountain Dew then waking up thirsty as hell, etc.

Drink a pint of water before going to bed and that wont happen.

You had half a pack of digestives?  I can tell you right now thats why you woke up after just 4 hours.

As for the dream, I have no idea.

i wish i was black.

Anybody fancy hacking my account (adam1503)?  I dont care, I dont use it anymore since I completely quit BF2 recently.

well it is 15 months old...

Something weird happens to Firefox when I open web.archive.org... I cant close tabs, it slows right down and bizzarely everything i type in the address bar is displayed in reverse

lol I thought this thread was over.

shut up

I remember having a similar problem when I bought NS, I had to contact EA to get it sorted out.  Email their support services at http://support.ea.com for help.

This is why im becoming more and more tired of this community: almost every thread worth discussing becomes a shit-slinging carnival.  They always end the same, but then I suppose its to be expected.  You will probably be too busy taking shots at each other to even notice this post!

Wuthering Heights is good...

EDIT: plus there's PLENTY of literary criticism out there about it.

Oh my god.  Easily worst book I've ever had to read.  Maybe it was because I was only 14 when I read it, but I absolutely hated that book.

Well its not for everyone, but then 14 is a little early to tackle that kind of thing.  There are so many different things going on at once, and the narrative jumps all over the place, so its not the easiest book to read unless you like that kind of thing (or have to study it for A-Level coursework lol)

You do realise I wasnt rreally asking for a source...

Also, this thread seems to be over, and its not even 24 hours old...

You deny the chance that there was an agenda leading up to te invasion of Iraq?

The invasion surprised Saddam - interesting.  It still doesn't give credit to the fact that the "evidence" in going to war was weak, misrepresented, and there was a definite agenda in the push for war.

How many countries supported it and gave us intel?  How many democrats including Clinton said Saddam must be taken out?  Jesus you think it was just Bush or something.

No, Rumsfeld was in on it too...

And how long will you continue to support Musharraf?

What could Ireland have done?  I know, they could have invaded Germany, shot Hitler, use the German Army to defeat Stalin, and then go back to Dublin.

Ya....I guess insignificant countries lie Ireland and Argentina can't do much.  After all, the Brits bitch slapped you guys for the Falklands.

That was below the belt.

Splinter Cell.  I love the deep political story lines, though they got worse in the sequels.

I just think stealthing your way through a level without getting seen ever is more rewarding and enjoyable than going in guns blazing ala Rainbow Six (which is still awesome nonetheless).

Thats why my left hand never gets chilly... cos its next to mah willy.

Yeah this is annoying, there is a server-side bug that happens every once in a while that causes problems with squadding up.  Occasionally you will find that nobody can make a squad and that your team cant even have a commander.

Actually I get this a lot... after using my mouse for a while I will suddenly notice that my right hand is freezing... odd.

EDIT: I have it right now lol

Pen and paper?

How about nuking them into the shape of a giant vagina.

Then we really could fuck the Russians.  With our penises.

Lewis Hamilton as a recent example.

Shame Colin McRae wont be there...

This effect would work even better if you could incorporate it into a wrap-around headset, the kind that completely covers your eyes.  That would be more like actually being in the game than viewing it through a window...

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/europe/7210036.stm

Far-right political leaders from four EU nations have unveiled plans to form a pan-European "patriotic" party.

The heads of far-right parties from Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria and France said their aim was to defend Europe against "Islamisation" and immigrants.

Looks like were not all about appeasing terrorists after all...

Soloing drives you nuts?  Then fly with a friend...

$132 (~£66) an hour sounds worth it to me...

Are there "empty" servers where I can go and learn my way around the game?  Or can I play locally?

tyia

There are two good ways to learn your way around the game:

1.) Create a local server

All this means is that you host a game on your machine.  Unless your computer is connected to a local network with anyone else who plays BF2, your game will stay empty.  This is just like playing on an empty server i.e. you dont have to do anything because theres nobody to play against.  The great benefit of doing this is that it allows you to become familiar with every weapon, vehicle and map without having to worry about time limits or getting killed.

To create a local server, click on the "Multiplayer" tab at the top of your BF2 screen, then select "Create Local".  Here you can select a map of any size and change any game paramaters e.g. spawn time, round time etc.  Its a good idea to put the spawn time right down when youre practicing so that you can jump straight back in when you die

2.) Play Single Player

Playing a single player match allows you to get to grips with playing against other players (except that the bots in single player are a walk in the park compared to real-life players :S).  Its pretty self-explanatory how to start a game here, just go to Single Player and select a map to start playing.  Youll notice that you cant change the map size in single player, thats because theres always a fixed number of bots in-game.  It wouldnt make sense to have you and 15 bots on a map made for 64 players... 

Like Hellhead said, make sure you get plenty of practice in on the different vehicles and classes (soldier types) before you get online, and be sure to read the wiki pages.  As I said, the bots are nothing compared to the average gamer you will find in BF2, and the first time you play on a populated server, you will see what I mean.  You will get killed a lot.  But dont let that put you off.

Put in plenty of practice, and you will get a lot of enjoyment out of BF2.

The primary fuck up?  Companies like Halliburton making millions/billions off the war.

You think that was the biggest fuck-up in the invasion of Iraq?

I would say it was the lack of any coherent post-war plan to re-establish the country once Saddam was overthrown.  If we'd had it all planned out beforehand Iraq might not be in the mess it is today.

I'm not against him, I just don't think he'll win.
Also, sorry if it seems like we're ganging up on you just joining in on the convo... Feel free to speak your mind here

Hehe, it did feel that way a little bit

Thats fair enough, I can understand why you would think he cant win.  But how much of what he stands for do you agree/disagree with?  The only way any politician stands a chance of winning is if people to support them.  You dont vote for the winner or the one who raised the most money or the one who aired the most ads, you vote for the candidate who most reflects what you believe in.

Wow the anti-Ron Paul sentiment here is unbeilevable.  Even the mods are joining in!  I really dont understand why you should be so opposed to him,  what is it you all have against him?

Another Paul constituency, interestingly enough, comes from the military. A study by the Center for Responsive Politics found Paul received more campaign cash from members of the military than any other Republican presidential candidate.

The study of contributions of $200 and more during the first two quarters shows that Paul has raised three times as much from members of the military as what's been raised by GOP fundraising front-runner Romney, and four times what Giuliani garnered.
