I'm playing still. I really urge for NPCS though now that more ingame tiles are calculated-And thank you for taking my advice/comments/whatever to heart, Whales, it's really awesome that you listened to the feedback. I'm sure other people talked about it too, though.

Can you play on random maps in single player? I'd also love to be able to place units in the map editor, would allow for awesome role-playing forum games.

General Discussion / Re: A Personal Apology from Bronies

In his post before he locked the MLP Pony thread, he posted(I can't quote it, obviously)

"Pages about the rules concerning rape fanfic etc.?  That's it for this forum and My Little Pony threads."

So yea, I'm pretty concerned for GD.

Huh. I definitely don't mind the My Little Ponies threads being locked and banned from now on, but I don't really know about closing down all of General Discussion. It is Toady's forum however, and completely his decision. Sad it had to come to this.

Unless I somehow misread what toady said or he changes his mind and the forum isn't/doesn't get locked or deleted.

In response to what Itnetlolor said, I agree one the whole 2012 thing to a degree. I think it has become apparent that technology has been increasing rapidly and exponentially. What was fiction twelve years ago is now reality, and I find that very, very fascinating. We're finding that if you think it, with the right equipment, materials, intelligence and creativity it is or should be at least theoretically possible. I find it surreal when I watch clips from around the year 2000 or the 1990s. Video quality is many times higher than it was then, and so are many things as well. There are a lot of interpretations of the Mayan Calendar 2012 thing, and even though the most common one is the apocalypse, I am pretty confident in the fact that It'll be the opposite-A renewed understanding of our world and the universe.

   Chances are it's not going to happen on the exact date, but I do think things might happen around that time that would qualify as 'revolutionary'. I know a lot of people on this forum disagree or are skeptical with the experiment, but with CERN reportedly finding that certain atoms/molecules can travel faster than light from point A to point B, I think that's amazing personally. All of our theories have been based on relativity, and while a lot of things about relativity are probably true, it just proves how much the universe is mysterious and dynamic. That's one of the main reasons I want to be a astrophysicist/scientist, when I read articles on science I find it interesting and, in fact, fun. Things i didn't know even existed in fact, do. Not trying to sound dramatic, but I find the beauty of the universe lies in it's mystery and unbelievable complexity.

Life Advice / No idea what to post/reply with in threads?
« on: November 18, 2011, 07:22:47 pm »
I've noticed lately that I'm using computers less(Moreso for browsing needs, facebook, news, forums. Not games so much anymore), posting less on internet boards and talking more in the real world and hanging out with friends more. While that's quite the opposite of bad, I like to be a member in communitys, especially ones like this. Usually I either don't reply or I type one out, and then decide against it because all it would do was would be repeating what someone said earlier, or something that I think would sound really stupid.

   Ironic(I hope I'm using the word right). I use to stay on the internet and my computer all the time, but now as I'm becoming more active, happy, outgoing etc. I don't know what to say in discussions on the web. Any...Suggestions for this? I'd like to be an active member in the community, but a lot of the time I don't know what to say.

What skill(s) do I need to make bows?

Well, I'm sort of doing this. Not devoting myself to it but not making excuses either. Something I've found that, while maybe not as effective as jogging/running or even walking fast, using punching backs really fast seems to be a good workout. I sweated a bunch and went through two water bottles, just from thirst while using one for 1-3 hours. The good thing is I don't get exhausted from my lungs or pains in my sides that I usually get when I do normal cardio. Swimming works but using a punching bag is easier than taking the time to go to a pool.

It seems like this thread is pretty done for, so I'm going to lock it. I've decided that I will inform my parents of the CBT option and talk to my therapist about it and see if I can get referred to someone for it. I had a very good day today-One of the best days I've had in at least a month or two. I realized that the next time a bad thing/chain of bad events happen, I need to be prepared, think rationally, and make the best of the situation. One of the forms of CBT looks like the best option compared to other methods of treatment, and it has shown great success, at least according to what I've read. It's very interesting and it seems simple(Since it has to do with psychology, it is probably quite complex when you actual go through CBT therapy) and, at a glance, very effective. While only time will tell if it works, I do think that at this point at least, general therapy isn't going to be as effective as in the past, and I need something that I can use for the rest of my life that will help me cope with certain situations. I'll probably talk to my mother about it tomorrow.

Since I posted the OP, we have went to the therapist and my mom has worked some things out with me, and things are currently stable and have been stable for 1-3 weeks in My relationship to her as a son living with her and interacting with her on a daily basis. I'll probably inform her of this method of therapy and ask her if she would want to read up on it, as it seems very promising at least for me.

Thanks for the replies, guys.

   I've been thinking about CBT for a while now, but I don't really know if that'd benefit me in my situation. It seems to me that my current state of affairs isn't going to be helped much by seeing a regular therapist. She is a good therapist, I have no doubt about that, but it could just be the method, as G-Flex stated. At my next appointment I'll probably go over that with her.

She's said before that I've started to have intervals in my life, usually seperated by 1-6 months, that last equally long. I will admit that at some of those times my thinking has got irrational and far out-I used to struggle to find and utter words around my mother at one point in my depression. It's not that I didn't want to, it was just my mental state that I could not do so.

Hopefully I have found some relief. My mother told me that it has 'become apparent to her' that I'm happier when I'm away from her, so she suggested a note system instead of direct confrontation. Hopefully I'll see some success with that.

If any of you have any questions, suggestions, anything, feel free to let it out I guess.

Well, it seems like everything useful here has been said. My plan is pretty much to avoid them and not to go out into secluded areas where they can get me unless I'm with a group of friends. If it comes down to it and I'm forced to fight, I suppose I will until I get a chance to run. Don't really know what else to add.
