    Nah, you just have to also install some big rotating blades like a meat grinder to disrupt the surface so they cant spawn on it.

    Sry then. I just interpreted it as saying they had a valid reason to have said apartment.

    So just because they rationalized in one episode how they had this wonderful apartment with a plausible explination, it dissolves the illusion created by all the others that they were somehow entitled to it on their own?

    I really like that quote. I have always kind of hated the idea that anyone can do anything if they try hard enough. I can't stand hearing "success stories" (looking at you Paul Harvee) because they are such bull. Sure it takes hard work, but it takes even more innate talent and sheer luck. Its more about right place, right time than I think I can I think I can.

    I would estimate that if the same person reconnects to the server withing X minutes of disconnecting either voluntarily or not then it doesnt apply the negatve points for joining. Simple fix.

    There is a connection option to join a server that is associated with a group that you are a part of. I have never used it because I dont do clans, but it is there for people who are part of them to join the same servers every time.

    That is actually a pretty reasonable argument until you notice that that "slaves" you and the parent poster are taking about are the same. Its not the 20-40 age group that is demanding the younger to support them, its the 60+ in most cases.

    If the parents in your case are supporting their kids, that is their responsibility. They had them after all. As for taxes on the neighbors to support other peoples kids in school, granted that isnt entirely *fair* but are still fairly small and can be interpreted as an investment by them into their own future as well. After all, those kids who they are supporting in school today are going to be the workers for when they themselves are retired. That is an "exchange between generations."

    Then comparing that to those parents also having to support the retired generation, that becomes the "slavery". It was their (the retired) responsibility to save and prepare for themselves, which they failed to do if they are scrounging for social security. Virtually anyone at any income can retire well off IF they plan for it in time. Then there is the family responsibility that kids have to support their own parents in their old age. Me paying for my dad is not comparable to me paying for yours. Now that they have hit the crunch and dont have an auxillary plan, it becomes the burden of the younger (20-40) generation to support them with NO return on investment. That is not an "exchange between generations."

    People complain already about how unjust it was to invade Iraq and stop oppression and persecution there. Now you're advocating the invasion of another country by private religious organizations? So you have any idea how retarded that is?

    I'm not saying something shouldn't be done. I have heard about them and I do think it is wrong and should be stopped. However, I personally have no means to help them at the moment. I DO have the means to donate to efforts to supply food. That is the difference.

    Also note that resources are limited. It would take a lot more than all the charities in the world have at their disposal to try and solve every unjustice in the world. How about instead of criticizing them about how they are missing something, you get off your own overfed ass and help out?
