    And then poonzer69 joins the forums and blows that theory.

    heh. I guess every theory has to have a few exceptions. Now, if we had critical mass of crazy Halo-tards....

    <!--QuoteBegin-Faskalia+--><div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (Faskalia)</div><div class='quotemain'><!--QuoteEBegin-->Like the "How often do you have sex?" type of questions, and when you compare it to the number of child births AND the number of birth control products bought it just doesn't add up?<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->

    Perhaps you were thinking about the relationship between the number of sexual partners male subject report versus female, which don't fit even when you take homosexual relations into account. It's impossible to predict child births from data on sexual behavior and birth control products. For one thing, humans have an amazingly low fertility (as in pregnancies per intercourse) compared to most mammals. This interestingly enough suggests the importance of sex as a social function versus as only a means for reproduction in our evolutionary history.

    I dunno about this particular instance. A lot of the old mods are less-active now due to the time since NS was initially released.

    And to be honest, I don't know who gets the "REPORT" messages. So if there's a problem, just send a PM to one of the mods that you've seen online in the last little bit with the post link.

    Insane has been pretty active this week holding off poozner## and dapwner. Also I've seen -comprox- dealing with Kainsor and other over the last months. Has Kainsor been banned? that would explain these two new guys.

    I would love there being some official forum rules or anything listed. So they can actually warn someone if they are being a pest by pointing to the rules and if they offend again, give them the boot.

    As Sirot has asked for this request is in motion and old rules/wiki community rules can be seen within a link involving the discussion, see here:

    <b>Age:</b> 22 (male)
    <b>Occupation:</b> Student (Computer Science), graduating May 2010. Developer for a small gaming-oriented LLC.
    <b>Other Qualifications:</b> My resume is pretty pimped out and I really can't stroke my ego enough in this sentence here, so you're just going to have to miss out. Do a lot of client/server/web development in a mountain of languages.
    <b>Aspirations:</b> Anything that requires learning (hopefully accompanied by mastery) and open-ended approach to problem solving. That pretty much leaves me with contracting, entrepreneurship, and working with small companies. My corporate experience so far has been a bit depressing in this respect.

    I think the forums are just littered with nerds until the game comes out.
