Re: programmers are racist.

Woo, way to start a thread to bash me, Ava. No, I don't think an mmo should ever be written in Visual Basic. I don't see how anyone can. There definitely are Online RPG enginey things written in VB available online, but I don't think any of them have been decent. Professional companies definitely w...

Re: sprite sheets

This is my method. here the sprite size is fixed, but I guess you can use an array to define the specified non-constant sizes then run it then SpriteNum 32 will have the corresponding index value of 32 in the size array(probably two-dimensional for the lenght and the width). //Sprite Size int Sprite...

Re: Developing problem solving skills

That's a fact. Internet pollution has made anyone with a connection a subject matter expert, even if they haven't the foggiest clue. But folks don't even seem to bother with Google. They want us to do their work. They probably won't even give credit. -capt jack As a wise man once said http://www.ch...

What about all the other presidents who hasn't started a war?

Re: Obama gets Nobel peace prize

For the lulz.
weird, i expected Ahmadenijad to get it.
We all know it was positive discrimination, I know he did absolutely nothing for Israel and Iraq in the UN meeting, and I really don't see why he got it other then the reason stated above.
