RE: I don't like numbers in username but... I do like numbers....
Numbers, hyphens and underscores are all a pet peeve in usernames (sorry 1@Demon_skeith[/uSER]!)
..that being said, my first ever forum username was andy_dobo24 - talk about imaginative! :ROFLMAO:
RE: Pre Built vs Custom Built
I've never built my own custom PC before, and for the price and spec for some of the pre-builds you can pick up these days - I don't think it's particularly worth it either.
Lately I've been contemplating buying a new rig, and going back to a Desktop from a...
RE: Your favorite Takeaways?
I tend to go for Pizza.. It's easy, and it's tasty :ROFLMAO: I prefer Domino's over Pizza Hut, but there's also a local takeaway that I sometimes order from which is equally very nice.
Sometimes I'll go for an Indian, although I'd rather eat out at an Indian...
RE: Adobe Photoshop
So don't pay for it then..! Wait, did I say that out loud? :eek:
I've tried the likes of GIMP, but it just doesn't compete and the interface feels quite clunky in comparison.
RE: Post your car(s)
I traded in the Corsa in June - I was having issues with the clutch, and had already spent £1400 on trying to get it fixed (along with some other work) which didn't resolve the problem.
I fell out with it, and decided to put the money towards this:

RE: Vehicle accident
Someone pulled out on me at a Crossroad, no fault of mine.. This was probably about 7 or 8 years ago now.
Thankfully I was only going at 30mph and the crumple zones did their job - no injuries. Other driver was shaken but fine, and accepted full liability.

RE: What kind of Phone Do You Have?
Still sporting my Galaxy S8, it's still growing strong despite having several more cracks and scrapes.. :LOL:
I'm contemplating shopping around for a new deal during Black Friday. I haven't got a clue what phone I'd want though ..just not an iPhone!
RE: Favorite racing Ga,es?
I really like the F1 games by Codemasters, but then I'm quite a big F1 fan.
I enjoyed playing through the first GRID on Xbox 360 - I'd quite like to play through GRID 2 but unfortunately the DLC has been delisted and you can't get hold of it anymore..
RE: Do you own a Switch?
I don't have one, but I've heard really good things about them.. I don't think I'll bother though.
I've never been a Nintendo gamer particularly; I preferred Sega growing up, skipped the N64, and only got a Gamecube for the Resident Evil games which were exclusives at...
RE: First ever game console?
Another Sega Master System II here, very closely followed by a NES - my parents were divorced and we'd got bought them the same Christmas.
I have fond memories of obtaining all six emeralds in the original Sonic the Hedgehog for the first time, before I knew about...
RE: vBulletin
I was quite heavily involved with vBulletin 3 and the v3arcade. It was quite easy to write code for, and the plugin system was quite advanced for its time!
I never tried vBulletin 4 or 5 as I'd already sold my license, but I hear it was quite the mess.
It looks much better now bud, not as harsh on the eyes.
For what it's worth, the light style is also growing on me now I've been on the forums a bit more.. (y)
Still feels a little bright to me for a dark style? ..or is it just me? :LOL:
PS. If you toggle the BB code on the editor, the text is pretty difficult to see.
RE: Anyone still play in PS2?
I think a lot of it is nostalgia and some modern games have a tendency to over complicate things.
Using your example of Super Mario Bros, the appeal is that the controls are literally 'run' and 'jump' - even non-gamers could easily pick it up within moments.
Some...
RE: Final Fantasy, anyone?
I've never finished it without using a gameshark code for "The End" magic.. I need to set some time aside to play through it again.

Thanks to 1@Demon_skeith[/uSER] for instantly planting an earworm after mentioning Within Temptation.. :p
RE: Nightwish
Within Temptation are another great band that I only discovered fairly recently! Their latest album Resist doesn't have a single bad track on it. I've also given Hydra a play and it too is pretty decent.. :)
I haven't heard of Gloryhammer either though, I will be sure to check...
