I want names of notables, and I want proof, backing these statements up.
If I don't get these, I am going to work my backside off getting you banned. You do NOT accuse people of doing things they haven't done, wherever you are on Earth.

Ah, but being a tool rules. And it makes me laugh. Just carry on writing them, and I'll be smug. More than usual, that it.
Well, it's true. I don't really know what a polygon is, or a mega-game 360x chip, or whether the X-Box can produce better graphics because it has a 128but graphics card or anything! I know nothing technical about games, which is why my 'arguments' mainly consist of, "these games are great to play."
You don't need to know all the technology of gaming to be a 'good' gamer, if there is such a thing. Just play. It's all I do.

"GUILTY! GUILLLLTY!"
Excellent.
I'm the first to admit I know jack all about games outside of point and clicks. I'm not interested in the polygon rate. What I'm interested in is if I press this button will he jump? Good, let's get on with chatting mindlessly about nothing.
Shall I tell you the best topic I've read since I got here?
"Make it count" by Goatboy. I remember it because it was one of the first posts i ever read, and it came from the heart. I doubt he even remembers it, but I do. And, as I recall, it had nothing to do with games or movies. Excellent.
And thats why I come to the forums. For topics that matter, and make me think "Jesus, I can or can never understand that".
Erm, nu-metal sucks. Pikeys. Vote Grix.

Are you implying that Thatcher is a deity?
:-)
I have read through most of the replies, and Grix's comment about the forums 'dying' on us. Well that just hit the nail on the head shooting it through the pillar and hitting Sniper in the face on the other side...
..Yes, I am that bored.
Great topic though.
So
> you admit it you know nothing! :D

Absolutely.
100% correct. That's why I dont post about stuff like polyongs, or go in the techy discussions.
I press button, game machine come on.
That's about it for my interest or knowledge about games.
I know what games I like (FPS, Strategy) and I know what games I dont (RPG).
Other than that, I know about music, movies and life.
And right now I'm off to sleep for I begin Jury Duty tomorrow and I need my sleep before I decide the fate of someone else.
Now THAT is responsibility, not being a Notable.
Just hope I'm better at being a juror than I am being a golden boy
You mook.
Come back Your Honour!
