I just needed an answer after trying so many different ways to get the game going. Figured more attention to it would help get a quicker response than posting and waiting in the PC section.

That's not a good reason to post in the wrong place. :|

If you have to take a leak, you wait and find a restroom unless it is a dire emergency. You don't just piss on the nearest building. I don't think the world was going to end if it took a few more minutes for someone to have a suggestion or you had to do some more googling.

I apologize to everyone else for cluttering the thread by giving in to impatience when I should have moved the post like I originally intended. :?

It's not an issue of chill.

It's an issue of other members who (rightfully) will report the post.

Hobie was being an educator for betterment of the site. We (racket community) are sometimes much too sensitive to constructive criticism.

We need a rule list for what's qualified to be random enough to be considered random.

I'm pretty sure some dude asking about Painkiller in a 700 page thread that's essentially about nothing isn't going to take anything away from the forum.

Swans as in Gira and Jarboe? Or is this some fake pretender?
Pretty sure Jarboe hasn't been with Swans for 15 years or so.

It'll still be an awesome show. And a new album... damn!

Why doesn't every newly designed parking lot utilize angled parking? I mean, it's not rocket surgery to figure out you'll have more available spaces.

Because inevitably people will try to park in that angled spot in the exact wrong way by not following the huge pointy arrows painted on the ground.

We have far more accidents and "over the line" parking in our angled lots than our traditional lots.
