If someone gets me the SQL code to update the specific user colour, then suuure I'll return colours.

But you have to create a Group to give a user a specific color... I doubt phpbb can understand a SQL code to do that, as phpbb itself can't create specific colors for specific users.

Whats wrong with a few user specific groups?

Not doing it, and you're wrong.

Interesting, Aumaan's profile, he doesn't seem to be part of a group for a color...

Me thinks you didn't catch that... he wanted someone to somehow find the SQL pass because for a specific user, you can define a color-without a group.

No idea what this means, but I know each user has his own colour.

The Teletubby comment was a joke.

I know exactly why/how you guys won your colors.

[xxpenguinxx]

I hate it when people lie to you when it's so obvious that they are and that what they are lying about is so important that it could mean life or death to them or someone else.

not anymore.
Gjs was saying that to have a color you must be in a group (that group having the color) but this is not true, each person can have a color..its in the MySQL somewhere...I remember seeing it on a site that I had SQL access to...
And...I wasn't aware they had "won" their colors...I just thought the moderators wanted to be funny or it had been brought up somewhere in some topic that I didn't catch..

The amount of stupidity between the higher members in the halo 3 section amazes me. Makes me loose all respect for them.

Prodesktop, being a 9 year old program and all, doesn't allow switching between projects while chamfering edges. Of course, my last back-up was about a half hour ago.

*Scratch that, almost an hour ago.

That sucks, it looked like the model was coming along pretty good too...

[Zieon Eslador]

I remembered what I did anyway, and now it's finished. Just got to convert it for ya.

I'm so tired of being poor it's not funny. All day I sit in school not giving a fuck about the stupid shit thats going on. Then I get home to absolutly nothing. You know what I come home to? Being hungry and not having a god dam thing to eat either. So then I have to take money I need to shit, and go buy god dam food. And seeing as I don't have any more money, I won't be getting any food for a while.

Then when I get on AIM, the first thing I get is nice IM: grim I needs help because I cant fucking do [insert stupid fucking task thats piss easy here] with my dev kit, can you helps?. This is when I fucking loose it. Why is that every fucking idiot has a god dam dev kit, like what the fuck? I want one to do homebrew on, not to bone my friend in the ass while some tart in the background flys by in a mongoose. But, I'm too poor to get one.

Now for the frostin gon the cake. I'm trying to sell this rrod demo kit. But some fucker has been telling everyone not to buy it. WHAT THE FUCK? Give me a fucking break. I have absolutly no fucking money, and now your gunna screw me over? I seriously cant believe this shit.

When in doubt and anger hang from a tree from your legs and relax. Sorry to hear of your problems but know that the best things in life are truly free and away from electronics.

[...]the best things in life are truly free and away from electronics

lul wut?

Maybe some things, but not everything, though I suppose it depends on the person, I enjoy working on computer stuff.

That doesn't always work out too well.

[DoorM4n]

hahahaha...its basically meditating.

[neodos]

But you could become the apple that falls off the tree

[DoorM4n]

Newton's laws of motion don't apply to people who meditate. Haven't you heard of Budhist monks meditating and hovering around in the Lotus position?!

[neodos]

Nope but sounds intresting i may need to do some meditation too

The mind is a powerful thing, give it the wrong signal and BAM! Chaos gets unleashed!

I have 12 more days to complete a Playstation emulator that can atleast emulate the BIOS. I have almost every opcode for the CPU done, and that was pretty easy. Now here is the cock block.... It emulates a lot of code and very very fast too. But it gets stuck is some loop I need to debug. That I can fix. But I need to figure out when an interupt is triggered, so that all the other aspects (GPU, Sound, Input) may be updated. I luckily found some open source Gpu plugins on the net. Huge as fuck, but atleast I have the source. Sound doesn't seem too hard from what I read. As long as I can find the actuall data, emulating it should be a piece of cake. Graphics on the other hand, are going to be tough. But here is the current biggest cock block, I need to figure out how to tell when an interupt occures to update the other components. I have the counters set, I'm just missing one value that they all depend on. Real fucking great. I emailed the author of an existing emulator, and I'm trying to get in touch with another over Irc.

I really need to haul some ass on this, I plan to finish the CPU today, and work on the GPU tomorrow. I just hope I can get somewhere before I have to tell my dad. I can already picture the "well hes fucked" expression on his face when I tell him. Not to mention I got a 70-79 on my progress report that I will need to somehow explain to him that this project will make it all better.

Well I'm grounded from my computer starting next week. I now need to find some project that will get me an A, and be able to complete it 13 days without working on it at home. I also have to turn in an outline for it tomorrow. Yea, I'm totally fucked now.

Sooo wait. You're working on a project and that "A" implies it is for a class...and your parents ground you from the primary tool you need to complete it.

Do your parents ever think things through?

Niether know about it atm. But I came up with a easy but good idea. I'm gunna recreate a bunch of arcade games. I've created a bunch of classes that make long processes simple for graphics. Now I can defently recreate a lot of simple games easily, as well as make a few random homebrew ones. I'll talk to my parents about it and what not.

If that doesn't work out, I suggest "The Game Of Life" http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conway%27s_Game_of_Life
I did my computing project on it using C# and System.Drawing, I was really happy with the result.

I already did that, it was only a 10 minute job.....
