If this were a Republican (I'm not sure about you, but a lot of others here would), a lot of you would be falling all over themselves demanding their resignation. I for one certainly wouldn't, unless it was shown that the Republican in question was...  [Read More]

From Ayers on the subject of the 'We didn't do enough' statement: : "The one thing I don't regret is opposing the war in Vietnam with every ounce of my being.... When I say, 'We didn't do enough,' a lot of people rush to think, 'That must mean,...  [Read More]

I think it should be allowed, only so long as it is the person's choice (although, I guess it wouldn't be suicide then). I for one wouldn't like to live like that, with no hope of cure, or treatment, just to waste away, and having to rely on others...  [Read More]

If you're looking to make an as-close-to-the-original title crawl as possible, you may want to look at LSText (http://lsmaker.uw.hu/page.php?main=lsmaker.html#lstext). It's fairly low-tech, and takes some getting used to, but it will create a great...  [Read More]

The racism isn't as prevalent as you think And neither is the Anti-semitism in this country. If it was as rife as you would have us believe (ludicrous, trying to convince residents of the concerned country, and also quite insulting), then we would k...  [Read More]

However, you need to look at where it is centered, we're seeing it in Europe's acadamia, and news media. Oh my, you're so right. It was only yesterday that Sky News was blaming the Zionist Conspiracy for the current economic downturn, and all of th...  [Read More]

Europe has a history of Anti-sematism, and it isn't only the Germans that have that history. The French among others have that legacy as well. I genuinely hope you aren't trying to paint all Europeans as Anti-Semites - because i'm incredibly offende...  [Read More]

I think that Darth will be restricted to NPCs only, or at least it should be. 'Darth' is supposedly a short version of Dark Lord of the Sith - which is why there's only ever a few at a time. I don't want to see hundreds of 'Darths' running around. I...  [Read More]

The Uruk-Hai Captain's name is Lurtz. That is true, but this one isn't Lurtz - in the game, you can have unnamed captains - of which he is one. I've got Lurtz somewhere... Is is difficult to paint such small figurines? It is at first, but after pr...  [Read More]
