R&M Sandwich Bar (No Ham Allowed)

[TheDMV]

At the bottom of your user CP there will be a section showing which post you got repped for, and a message why.

You'll have 10 rep because all new accounts, made from May onwards I think, were automatically credited with 10 rep.

Why is that?

[vocman]

they are just numbers, as long as you're having a good time the forums do their work...

[munky_magik]

Why is that?
Ask MX.

And even if they don't sign your rep it still shows up in your user CP.

[Cain]

Rep is short for reputation points, where respected, intelligent, and helpful users recieve points from moderators, and if you achieve an elite level, you get four stars under your name, like the mods (except they have five). It used to be that users would just be able to rep each other, but of course no one was responsible about it and everyone whored themselves off until everyone had stars. When that happened, the system became meaningless because it was no indication of who was a actually a productive user. A lot of vets of this thread who are no longer here would likely tell you that the tendency to spam and the overwhelming number of new users who have gotten into the thread over time started with the rep fiasco.

Everybody here knows those who retained stars because of the glitch in the rep system, so the first person to get four stars solely from mod rep will either be lambasted as a whore or will be genuinely a great user. But the mods are VERY stingy with the rep they give out, and so it's unlikely that it'll be a quick thing before people start getting their stars. I've got a ways to go.

When you get stars, you yourself can rep other people. The rep you give out is a fraction of the rep that you have, and since the mods pick who's going to get stars, the idea is that only those deemed responsible enough to have the stars in the first place will be the ones who are able to rep, so no abuse occurs.

[Shred Danson]

Eh, I don't have any rep, I guess. I used to have stars back before the revamp, and I guess that was cool and "important", but I generally don't do much to deserve any rep these days. I guess.

[Lord Abortion]

I had stars for a week before they were cruelly removed- but I had minus 300 rep for a long time due to my opinionated posting and general wankery that I think I have improved since, I still have 0 reppage though

[Taste_My_Scythe]

It's only if they sign off the rep. Go to user CP and it will tell you where you were last repped. Once in that thread, find the post where you were repped and see who did it and why. I've never gotten a message.

I didn't see anything to tell me where I was last repped. It's ok though.

Last Sunday I ate at a nice Chinese restaurant in downtown Toronto. Unfortunately they didn't understand English and as a result we received 9 full dishes (excluding the rice and 2 soups). We left with half of it in doggy bags (which we threw out last night). It cost us $120 too.

I actually had no part in throwing it out. I was out at the mall and when I came back to the common room I opened the fridge and the food had disappeared. In anger I grabbed a drink, some chips, and threw on Boondock Saints.

The male child grows quickly from the ages of 12 to 16. At 16, the boy tends to put on bulk in favour of height, though a gradual increase to his full height may continue till the age of 21.

Thank you so much. I started recording, but I wanted to know if there is a way that I can just overrecord some stuff in case of a slipup or something. When I try to record at a certain spot, it just starts a new audio file thing.

[Lord Abortion]

Is anyone else's msn being a twat?

[Riva]

A new wave track, you mean? That's the way you overrecord. You delete the block that you stuffed up in, and the re-recording fills that space. Then you can merge them together.

[heavy metal kid]

I'm 6'2'', and i'm sorounded by people shorter than me, that's sucks, i have to walk looking down.

Ah, gotcha. So do I select (as in highlight) the portion that I want removed and just delete?

[Dr. Jake Destructo]

No no no no...That will take out the secion and mess up the timing of it all. select the messed up section, and go to effects-->amplify and in the Dbs box, type in -24. You may have to do this 2 times to get it totally silent, and I'm sure there is a short cut for just silencing a section, but this is easy enough.

[Riva]

Ah, gotcha. So do I select (as in highlight) the portion that I want removed and just delete?

Yep, the cursor should look like a text one, and just pick the exact spot you want to delete from, highlight, and then just delete that block. Or, you can just use the silence command (ctrl-c), which stops you from having to realign the tail end of the block...

No no no no...That will take out the secion and mess up the timing of it all. select the messed up section, and go to effects-->amplify and in the Dbs box, type in -24. You may have to do this 2 times to get it totally silent, and I'm sure there is a short cut for just silencing a section, but this is easy enough.


Yeah, ctrl-K, it's below Delete in the menu.

Ok, so I silence it, and start recording anew on the other wav file, thing, how do I merge them?

EDIT: So ctrl K will silence it? Instead of going to amplify?

[Dr. Jake Destructo]

It's fixed now Ollie. Mine was being a twat as well, but now I'm on. :thumb:

Leah- Not a completely seperate WAV file. Just highlight the part that you want to record over(after silencing it) and click the record button again. You get a second track in the same file. You may want to highlight a little section before the exact part you're recording over so you have time to get situated with your guitar/mic/whatever else.

I actually have not heard of them. The only Celtic rock I was looking at was Gary Moore and Thin Lizzy when he was with the band, and then a handful of power metal outfits with blatant Celtic counterpoint. Maybe you could upload some tracks?

EDIT: My real love is for ambient, modern Celtic music. The kind of Celtic that falls under the New Age tag. And New Age isn't all muzak, BTW, just in case any of you were scared. :p There's a lot of fine musicians working in that framework, like David Arkenstone, Will Ackerman, and others.

I was thinking of a list of the different types of songs in Celtic folk (reels, airs, etc.) and then providing an example sample song of each from the various artists I'm covering.

[Cain]

Yeah, that's right. I'm doing a series of FAs on artists that work in primarily Celtic and New Age veins. And in terms of genre, I would do an FG except Celtic music is an extremely broad term and I wouldn't be doing a group-oriented study of its evolution. It's too big a genre. Therefore, what I was talking about was an introduction to its musical style, in theoretical and melodic terms.

Math metal is not a genre.

They are along the lines of extreme progressive/technical metal.

I heard someone call them thrash metal. Is this acceptable,or even close?

I thought it was just another term for tech metal. Like Sleep Terror. Man those guys are crazy.

Also, a pretty random question, but where do most of you buy your DVD's? I mean, I'll go to Best Buy or Tower Records to buy some, but Blockbuster is dedicated to movies, and ironically, the selection sucks.

I generally go to HMV and Virgin. Since I buy music more than film though, I usually only buy DVDs when they're on sale (which is fortunately quite often). Other than that, I also use Amazon, and eBay if it's particularly hard to find.

That's good. I like walking, but it's pretty boring when there is no one to talk to and walk around with you. Plus, walking around my neighborhood sucks, and walking down by the road is full of honks. :evil:

[Stoic]

I dont usually eat breakfast and I hate walking when it's hot. I'm also used to walking fast when I'm alone and when I get home I'm all sweat and thirsty.

[GaggingOrder]

I only walked with a friend once, and ultimately we offended some 37 year old, and he threatened to kick our asses. Good times. I usually listen to music while I walk to keep from getting so bored. It's easier walking on the track than on a tredmill, because on a treadmill I can just say **** it and get off, whereas I'm motivated to go around to 2 mile track atleast twice. I can do it walking around my neighborhood by just walking far out and I can't stop because I have to get back to my house. Yay.

[Taste_My_Scythe]

I dont usually eat breakfast and I hate walking when it's hot. I'm also used to walking fast when I'm alone and when I get home I'm all sweat and thirsty.

True. It's way too hot to walk. Summer sucks big time. No one wants to go outside because it's too hot, so you sit inside. Then people get on your case because they say you spend too much time inside, and you need to get some "fresh air". Personally, I'll choose AC over humidity anyday.

[Stoic]

I only walked with a friend once, and ultimately we offended some 37 year old, and he threatened to kick our asses.

haha, did the same thing the other day. I was in a bad mood and his attitude just pissed me off. I said "Why dont you just die wanker?" and walked away. I feel guilty though, it's like not me offending random people on the street.

Then we went back to my house and walked around the nieghborhood. About a block from my house some guy ran by, his **** bouncing, and I whispered to Mason something about the ****. The guy ran about a block more, then turned around and ran up to us.

Guy: Which of you likes talking the ****?
Me: Uh, I don't know.

I used to sing in chorus, and I was pretty good because Les Miserables was my favorite musical and I'd sing along spot-on to all of Javert's parts. Unfortunately, I haven't sung in a while (not since I performed Javert in Les Mis, actually), and so my voice has lost a great deal of its bass range, control, and projection. So we'll see. If I can't get anything that sounds good, I simply won't submit a song. Simple as that.

wow, that's pretty cool. Musicals are great.

Did you hear the amon amarth cover? The best I've heard so far

It wouldn't work for me, I couldn't hear it!

Man, voting on the metal comp is going to be a bitch of a time...There's got to be over 20 entries so far, right? :-/

Definately. Does anyone know when the voting will start? I'm afraid I will miss it like I missed the last ones.

Yeah, a lot of people have claimed dibs, but I bet at least half don't follow through.

[Dr. Jake Destructo]

Whaat? That must've definately been after I left or I would've remembered that one.

Oh yeah, I had left, eaten dinner, and returned by the time that happened. :p It was about 3 and a half hours into the chat. Oh, and you also missed the part where mod Chris changed my avatar(obvious) and gave me a signature. :lol:

The voting will probably be in the beginning of August, or late this month.

CJ- Of course, but even then, there will probably be tons more entries than, say last month.

Is it just me, or is there not a signature there?

[Dr. Jake Destructo]

I'm going to New Orleans on the 27th of this month. Other than that, I have a dentists appointment in an hour. Speaking of which, I should probably go get cleaned up. See you all later, and good look with the covers. :wave:

I have been sig jack'd! :eek:

Dammit. Should have taken a screen shot or something. :upset:

[Josh]

there isn't one there that i can see. :confused:

[Jom]

I'm going to win. "A Fair Judgement" will rip all comers to shreds. ;)

EDIT: If I can get those darn drums correct, that is. :( Does anyone (like Jim) who has power tabs know if there's an accurate drum tab for "A Fair Judgement?"

Me Jim, or DBJ Jim?

PS: I looked you up on Facebook. Niiiiiiiice picture.

NP: Billy Talent - Prisoners of Today..........why am i listening to PUNK?!?!

[Endless Obsession]

I went to Sounds of the Underground yesterday. It was awesome. If it comes to your area I think you should check it out, it has something for nearly any metalhead. The best bands were : Lamb of God, Unearth, All that Remains, Chimaira. I got drenched with fake blood and bile during Gwar.

[ATM]

My sister posts on MX now. Oh god.

I've seen him on AIM a few times. Not very often, though.

I hate being away from home (unless it's a trip abroad).

She's waaay older then you.

On a completely unrelated note, I'm downloading an electronica tribute to Iron Maiden :lol:

[Arucard]

Everyone does tributes to Maiden, and alot of them are quite good.

In other news, im going to my local library tommorow to finally sign up, as since my Mum left, i don't get bought books by the shed load anymore. She was only good for bookage.

/:(

[Stoic]

what kind of books do you like?

irrelevant: What is Washington DC? State, the capital, seattle city? Excuse my ignorance, I happen not to be an american

[Arucard]

I like crime thrillers, my faverouite author is Jeffery Deaver.

:eek: My anonymity has been shattered!!!!

And it's not a nice picture, you're a liar. :mad:

And yes I meant you. You helpfully provided me with a power tab of "whispering a prayer" back in the day, accompanied by multiple repeats of the word "penis."

EDIT: Oh well, guess my hopes of being the next Bartender were ill-concieved. My hair is much longer now, however. I hope to get a better picture up there soon, once I get a bloody digital camera.

It's our nation's capitol, it's a small area of land between Virginia and Maryland.

[Endless Obsession]

Its the capital of the USA. Its inbetween Maryland and Virginia, its not part of either state, and its not its own state.

[Cain]

Yes, the "Washington" part is a reference to George Washington, the first president and so a fitting namesake for our place of government, and the "DC" is short for "District of Columbia" in reference to Crístobar Cólon (aka Christopher Columbus ;) ), the "discoverer" of America the land.

EDIT: Jom, why did you not friend me? :( Don't expect me to do it as I lost the email with your full name.

[Arucard]

Oh btw Cain, my cover of 'Blinded By Fear' may just give you a run for your money :P

Mine has all real instruments, i've done the drums all ready.

[Stoic]

I got it. You know, I usually see it as plain Washington and not Washington DC and I was told that there is another city named Washington in Seattle :confused:
