""The site is here to have people comment on articles?" Yes. That's why the site generates views on articles. The comment section is how you have people view an article and continue to come back to it thereby loading ads over and over. What did you think a blog that has almost no other feature other than a comment

Really, what exactly is the time and place? When comments aren't being deleted? When the author isn't active in the thread reading comments?

Even when I've sent emails providing tips or heads up on articles it's taken days to get a response. Do you really think an email about how an author is deleting comments in a

The site is here to have people comment on articles. Yet more often than not the authors are taking it upon themselves to censor what makes it into the comment pool. It's absolutely rampant over on Gawker's main page, but I have to admit that this is the first time I've experienced it here.

As a prior "star" commenter

Nice, posts are already being deleted huh? Fucking cowards.

Instead of following the guidelines that Totilo stated about how authors are supposed to interact with the commentors you just delete posts you don't like. Fuck you Luke.

I would imagine that if I were having professional pictures taken; or at least pictures by a photographer who's going to add his signature to them, that I'd still cover it up regardless of it's contextual significance at a Con.

It's terribly unflattering as well. While tacky to show the tattoo, it's not the tattoo itself in the shots that make them unflattering. The cut of the top under her arms and her legs/ass are just not features I'd feature. My distaste for the outfit could be drastically changed if she were wearing more, not less. The

I appreciate the feedback, I'll check em out the next time steam has a sale.

I loved the original point and click adventure Sam and Max games back in the late 90's. I haven't tried the new TTG versions, are they true to the original?

Agreed, I used 24 grams as an avg as we're on a gaming site and I don't expect the vast majority of people who came across the post to have anywhere near a proper dietary plan. Or for that matter the proper build to support eating in the way we described.

You know, when you state something such as "Wrong" when addressing a matter that is historically so nebulous you're really going out of your way to look silly. For as many studies that I've read in these last two years that are against multiple meals a day, I've read as many or more that are for it. Pre-loading on

The idea is to consume my body weight in protein a day. It's not something I plan to do for a long period of time, but I'm looking to build a good bit of lean muscle mass. I'm not one of those silly "bulk because you can" mentalities as I'm more built for running or swimming.

Yep, anything over 24 grams in a single sitting is usually a waste. Wait 2-3 hours to consume more =)

"What else would you do with a tank, really?"

After you finish your macho ostrich egg and bacon cheese burger, you drive your tank to the closest fast food place because you forgot shakes.

I actually owned an entire continent in that game when it launched. On the Chaos server I was Astrix of Legion VII Felix. We held the entire NE snow continent for quite a while, but RL got in the way of me being available as much as that game required.

Compared to AC, it was player friendly =)

I completely remember the run from Halas to Kelethin at level 10, having to go through the beholder gorge and dealing with the giants in karanos to get there. But when all said and done (and many corpse runs later) I was able to sell my polar bear hide cloaks for 10g a pop.

Very few companies were focused on making anything "global" at that point when it came to mmos. Having stable servers that supported the US was enough of a task ;)

You're welcome, but to be honest, AC was never a big player in the market. EverQuest was the World of Warcraft of it's day. Where other games had a few tens of thousands of players EQ had like 1.5 million (I'm making up numbers for comparison sake). Using that number scheme, AC likely only had 100-150k at it's peak. I

Meridian 59 is no Meridian 59. Having played it back in the day, while I agree it was the first of it's kind, the nostalgia factor leaves most people remembering it far too fondly.

It was one of the first 3D mmos, and it had a system where you dropped your loot on the ground open to other people when you died. MMOs were far more harsh back then.

Prior to AC you had The Realm which was 2d, Ultima Online which was 2.5D, and Meridian 59 that predates them all. EQ was released at roughly the same
