    if they make fraudulent charges just contact visa and they will take care of it. Credit cards are the safest way to buy so long as you watch your statements for suspicious activity. the credit card companies want it this way so everyone will feel safe using the cards and will expect merchants to accept them.

    here's the complete lyrics my sig is from

    Kmfdm - Dogma Lyrics

    All we want is a headrush
    All we want is to get out of our skin for a while
    We have nothing to lose because we don't have anything
    Anything we want anyway...
    We used to hate people
    Now we just make fun of them
    It's more effective that way
    We don't live
    We just scratch on day to day
    With nothing but matchbooks and
    Sarcasm in our pockets
    And all we are waiting for
    Is for something worth waiting for
    Let's admit america gets the celebrities we deserve
    Let's stop saying "Don't quote me"
    Because if no one quotes you
    You probably haven't said a thing worth saying

    Sex, drugs, god, cash, America

    We need something to kill the pain
    Of all that nothing inside
    We all just want to die a little bit
    We fear that pop-culture
    Is the only culture we're ever going to have
    We want to stop reading magazines
    Stop watching TV
    Stop caring about hollywood
    But we're addicted to the things we hate
    We don't run washington and no one really does
    Ask not what you can do for your country
    Ask what your country did to you

    Sex, drugs, god, cash, America

    The only reason you're still alive is because someone
    Has decided to let you live
    We owe so much money we're not broke we're broken
    We're so poor we can't even pay attention
    So what do you want
    You want to be famous and rich and happy
    But you're terrified you have nothing to offer this world
    Nothing to say and no way to say it
    But you can say it in three languages
    You are more than the sum of what you consume
    Desire is not an occupation
    You are alternately thrilled and desperate
    Skyhigh and f**ked
    Let's stop praying for someone
    To save us and start saving ourselves
    Let's stop this and start over
    Let's go out - Let's keep going

    Sex, drugs, god, cash, America

    This is your life - This is your f**king life
    We need something to kill
    The pain of all that nothing inside
    Quit whining you haven't done
    Anything wrong because frankly
    You haven't done much of anything
    Someone's writing down your mistakes
    Someone's documenting your downfall

    overrated is broken but would probably be too computationally expensive to fix. overrated should never be able to go under net moderation +/-0 and underrated should never be able to go more than one over the sum of other positive mods and the starting bonus, thus let underrated negate bad downmods and contribute up to one point on it's own, while overrated can negate bad upmods

    over/underrated should also vanish at a rate of one over/under per other oderation in the same direction

    case locks are not secure, but they do require noise, time, and commotion to defeat, moreso than screws anyway. security isn't a binary value every little bit counts as long as you don't leave a stupid gap in coverage.
