    Gaming Dragon Quest VI: Realms of Revelation Hype Thread

    Looks like my copy is waiting at home for me, can't wait to get back-- this is the only one of the main series I haven't played now. I'll admit I preordered from Gamestop for the slime plushie.

    Biggest internet screw up?

    Going on a site at work that had hit a home computer with malware already... they said the ads causing it were removed; should have known better! Also, early on in my internet experience, being a little too trusting of some "friends." I keep my guard up more these days.

    How would you dispose of a body?

    This came up in forensics courses I took in college, lol. Best way might be, if you can do it undetected, is to bury it as deep, far away from the original scene in the middle of nowhere. Burning and water disposal tends to be ineffective, and chopping it up is one of the worst things you can do...

    Repeated Faulty Items on eBay

    You have my sympathy... I've almost never had any problems with eBay (been using it since '04), but had a real bad one recently. Decided to get a new Kodak, and went with a seller who had 99.7% feedback and sold tons; refurbished, but I didn't mind as long as it worked ok. Usually, my advice to...

    Gaming Harvest moon? well im bored..

    Rune Factory 2 and DS Cute are my favorites (DS is full of glitches, so get Cute unless you REALLY don't want to play as a female). Started Grand Bazaar recently and like it so far; might not end up as my favorite, but definitely a great game for newbies to start with, as it is pretty easy.

    What do you do for a living?

    I work in the scholarship office at a university... interesting stuff mostly, but also have to tell people a lot of bad news unfortunately.

    Capital Punishment

    Definitely opposed, and many of the courses I took while in college (many forensic classes, and I minored in Criminal Justice) combined with independent research and reading have backed up and made my feelings on this issue even stronger. My issues with it and arguments against it consist of...

    Hacking Screen capture for DS

    Thanks! Yep, I'm thinking it will come down to my camera, since no searching online has turned up anything that easy, I'm afraid. But figured I'd ask in case someone knows of something obscure.

    Hacking Screen capture for DS

    Sorry if it is a stupid question, but was wondering if there were any devices or easy ways to put screenshots from the DS onto the computer. The reason being, I'd like to create a drag-and-drop dressup Dragon Quest IX character creator once I finish with the game and get most of the...

    Hacking Show Off your System.

    No, I was tempted to take a crack at it but no experience soldering so I used a site called yourhappyplace.com or something like that.

    Hacking Show Off your System.

    Some neat ones here! I love the pink and light blue one, the metallic purple, and the red and silver. Here is what I have here... I also have an old original GB or two hanging around the home I grew up in. Also had a blue SP and a gold Pokemon GBC but gave those both away. I turned on the...

    Gaming Which GBC games do you still play on your GBA?

    Haven't fired it up really recently, but Dragon Warrior III, and think I'll go back and replay Deja Vu I & II sometime.

    reporting spam in PMs

    Yipes, sounds like a real tricky one then. It is definitely a concern if this person is hacking accounts. There is one other trick I can think of, but not sure if it would work in this case since the problem is with PMs (admins/mods, PM me for details if curious, would ruin it if posted and...

    reporting spam in PMs

    Another option to slow this person down then is to disable links for members below a certain post count. (Which will be annoying for some new members who want to post legit links of course, but does solve problems) I know spammers are a nightmare... There is an NFL forum I'm supposed to be the...
