Nürnberger Land is a district in Bavaria, Germany. It is bounded by (from the north and clockwise) the districts of Forchheim, Bayreuth, Amberg-Sulzbach, Neumarkt, Roth and Erlangen-Höchstadt, and by the city of Nuremberg.
The district was established in 1972 by merging the former districts of Nuremberg, Hersbruck and Lauf, reuniting for the first time since 1789 most of the former lands of the Imperial City of Nuremberg.
The district includes the eastern metropolitan area of Nuremberg in the west and the hills of the Frankish Alb in the east. The Pegnitz River runs through the district, coming from the northeast and leaving to the west towards Nuremberg.
Coat of arms[edit]
The upper part of the coat of arms is identical to the city arms of Nuremberg. In the bottom part there is a water wheel representing the watermills on the river Pegnitz. |

dc.description.abstract | The impacts of Castor canadensis Kuhl (American beaver) on local ecosystems through foraging and dam construction activities have been well documented. Here we examined beaver foraging activity in the Wilds, an ecosystem in southeastern Ohio that was most recently subjected to surface mining between the late 1960s and the middle 1980s. Our objective was to make detailed observations of recent and past foraging patterns with the aim of better assessing the impact beaver might have on the recovery of forests in this altered landscape. One active site, a site downstream of the active impoundment and two recently abandoned beaver dam sites were chosen as study sites. At all sites, terrestrial foraging by beaver was generally concentrated within 20 m of water's edge and declined sharply beyond 40 m. Foraging activity was concentrated on, but did not seem to be limiting, the dominant standing species. Thus, there was little indication that foraging activity might be directly altering the nature of forest development in this community. However, other less direct impacts such as consequences arising from damming activities may well yet yield important and long-term effects in this recovering ecosystem. | en_US |

maybe look at my edits and give me advice?
Comment from mcld on 1 February 2014 at 09:49
Hi - welcome in :)
Your edits look great to me (just browsed a random few of them).
One thing that would be nice would be if the changeset comments were a bit more informative than "local stuff" - I guess the ideal comment is one that tells me what your intention was, and/or what type of objects were edited. No need to worry too much but it would be helpful.
Cheers, Dan

Posted by Josh Katzowitz
Will was up late Monday night telling you about how Redskins S LaRon Landry and CB DeAngelo Hall mocked Eagles WR DeSean Jackson about his concussion from a few weeks back.
You know, the typical "making pillow gestures" and saying "night, night" that we all seem to think is absolutely hi-larious (especially when you talk about another man's health).
Not surprisingly, that disgusting behavior seemed to motivate the Eagles, who absolutely dominated Washington as Michael Vick had the individual performance of the year (20 of 28, 333 yards, four touchdowns, zero interceptions) while feeding an 88 yard touchdown pass to Jackson 18 seconds into the game.
Needless to say, after the game, Philadelphia described the pregame trash-talking and how it got the Eagles blood boiling.
"He brought up my concussion, and said, 'I'm going to put you asleep again,'" Jackson told reporters, via the Philadelphia Sports Daily, recounting his pregame conversation with Landry.
Said Eagles WR Jeremy Maclin: "Everybody trash talks, but there are certain things you talk about and certain things you don't. In incidents where someone is really hurt, or life-changing incidents like that – you don't talk about those type of things. Thirty was running at the mouth a little too much."
But that's not all. Apparently, the Redskins couldn't keep the saliva from pouring out of their mouths (why is spitting in people's faces, all of a sudden, becoming a trend?) According to Philadelphia center Mike McGlynn, Landry spit on him at least twice.
While the Redskins were embarrassed badly on their home field, one person came off looking worse. Apparently, Landry had an off-night.
As a human being.

It received its current name in 1992. RGVA retains records of the Soviet armed forces and internal special troops from the years of the Civil War through the interwar period (1918–1940), together with related fonds of personal papers. Along with the records of the highest, central organs of military administration of the RKKA and the General Staff are those of the political command of the Red Army, military and political sections and administrations of different military districts, fronts, armies, and divisions in the course of various military engagements, local organs for military administration, as well as records of the military intelligence service (GRU), and military educational institutions. With the 1999 Rosarkhiv reorganization, the former Special Archive for trophy foreign records—TsGOA, renamed in 1992 the Center for the Preservation of Historico-Documentary Collections (Tsentr khraneniia istoriko-dokumental'nykh kollektsii—TsKhIDK) was abolished as a separate archive, and its holdings are now part of RGVA. In July 1992, the formerly top-secret Central State Special Archive (TsGOA SSSR) was reorganized and renamed TsKhIDK. The so-called Special Archive (Osobyi arkhiv) was officially established in March 1946 to house the archival materials of foreign origin from many European countries that were captured by Soviet Army at the end of World War II in Germany, Poland, and Czechoslovakia and brought back to Moscow. The 593 fonds of captured records (as early 2012), comprise official records of the Third Reich and personal papers of many Nazi leaders and prominent public figures of the Nazi movement; records of the high state agencies of other European countries, which had earlier been captured by Nazi authorities; records of many non-govermental organizations, agencies, and individuals throughout Europe, including those of Jewish and Masonic groups, socialist parties and labor associations, newspapers and publishing houses, student organizations, and business firms; and collections of unique documentary materials of private and family origin. Later the archive also acquired records of Soviet agencies dealing with prisoners of war and displaced persons under the NKVD–MVD, namely voluminous complex of records of agencies subordinated to the Main Administration for Affairs of Prisoners of War and Internees (GUPVI, 1939–1960), including records of individual POW camps, which contain personal files on individual foreign prisoners and documentation on the burial of prisoners who died in the USSR. The archive of the Grand Duchy of Lichtenstein was returned in 1997, the British wartime records were returned in 1998. In 2002 almost all of the fonds of French and Belgian provenance were restituted. As of May 2003, the last fonds of Dutch provenance were returned to the Netherlands. In June 2009, 51 of the fonds of Austrian provenance were returned to Vienna, and the remainder are being prepared for return, now expected in 2012. The return of files of Greek provenance is pending, as is the return of Masonic files from Norway.

Javs' Kangas resigns
In four seasons, Kangas compiled a 21-87 record. This season, a young Javelinas squad posted an 8-19 record, the most wins and fewest losses in Kangas' tenure. But she couldn't right a program that has suffered six consecutive losing campaigns since reaching the NCAA Division II Elite Eight in 2000-01.
"I think overall record-wise Dina's always said to me all along, 'If I can't get this done I will step away. You will never have to ask me to go,'" A&M-Kingsville athletics director Jill Willson said.
Please see KANGAS 3C
While Willson said it is a "sad day" for the university and the players, a nationwide search will begin for Kangas' replacement. In the interim, assistant coach Brent Pollari will head the program.
"I want to thank the Texas A&M-Kingsville administration, staff and the Kingsville community for their support of Javelina women's basketball over the last four years," Kangas said in a statement. "It's been a great opportunity for me, but I feel that it's time for a change for both the program and myself. I especially want to thank the student-athletes that I have been privileged to work with for the last four seasons."
Kangas did not return phone messages Thursday.
Kangas follows cross country and track and field coach Brent Ericksen, football coach Richard Cundiff and volleyball coach Jane Kieschnick, who all exited since the start of classes in August.
Kangas' team this season had but one senior, Angela Trotter, and eight freshmen on the roster, including two starters. The Javelinas started Lone Star Conference South Division play at 3-2 but lost its final nine ballgames.
"I've said just by watching women's basketball and Texas A&M-Kingsville basketball here for the last few years after I stepped down, that if Dina had recruited this group of kids four years ago we'd have been in a totally different position," said Willson, who coached the program to a school-best 114-99 record from 1993-2000. "That's nothing against the other kids she recruited. But she's still got a solid foundation of local talent. I think this group of kids gets along extremely well. The chemistry is there. They're awful young but I think the potential is there to build."
Kangas remains the most prolific scorer in Division II history. A three-time All-American at Minnesota-Duluth, is the all-time scoring leader (2,810), career field-goal leader (1,170) and leader in double-figure scoring (94). Twice she led the country and her 938 points scored in 1991 remains third on the all-time list.
Prior to coming to Texas, Kangas spent three seasons as Minnesota State-Moorhead's assistant and also was an assistant at Bemidji (Minn.) State and North Dakota State.
Willson said she would expedite the hiring of Kangas' replacement but wouldn't force the process.
"But I'm very cognizant of the fact that our signing date is the second week in April," Willson said of the national signing date. "I'm anxious about that. But I'm not going to hustle into something that I'm going to be sorry for. We will hire the very best person for the position. But I'm going to try and keep the signing date in mind."

How is this for an idea
I'm a web developer who is working for a company full time (40+ hours a week). I'm being paid quite badly as this is my first job in the industry but my experience is quite good and so is my knowledge.
Anyway. I've thought for a while about ideas and thought about this: A kind of dating/online community/personal web page service. So you do this: - Sign up - Create profile (optional details: height, weight, hair colour, interests, location, job, age, and many more) - Once this has been done you will be given: www.mydomain.com/yourname and you may/may not use it The main selling point will be that your membership will be based on location. For example if you are in Liverpool you will be able to view the other 100 users from that area, and can even meet up with some of them too - and view their pictures. I have the idea that companies and organisations can pay to advertise events in the local sections of the website. Lets say there is a car festival in Cornwall. They can pay a certain amount and have a banner/email or something sent to the users from the Cornwall area. Something along these lines anyway. Any thoughts? |
well a quick search of google reveals lots of this type of service... What would make your site different?
Do you have a strong social network? Myspace, facebook or MSN? You can get paid for your friends playing games on your site: http://www.uvme.biz/74994GA Click on the link and watch the video. |
their are many like this, i just had someone put one up similar on the advertising page, maybe do a networking site for young entrepreneurs, or summat, I can point you in the right direction
My main selling point will be: 1. It's locally-focussed market. It will be heavily marketed to YOUR area, so when you sign up you select an area of the country, i.e. Birmingham. You can then view the 500 other members who are from all different parts of the area, with all different interests, etc.... 2. It will also allow users to have their own webspace/page to blog or just show images/links and other information about themselves. They can add other members too. This builds up a real community of people, both online and hopefully offline. 3. Companies/organisations/businesses can target areas and members. As it is heavily based on a local area, a carboot sale in a specific area can target the 300 members of that area. Or a band looking for publicity can offer half price tickets in the area where they will be playing - South wales for example. This will be chargeable. In my opinion there will always be someone with the same idea/same kind of site. Just trying to make it more attractive/unique/more powerful. The one thing I lack at the minute is the scope. I've only just started thinking about htis, haven't thought in depth/fully about what it will do EXACTLY. Do you think it is a good base to start with? |
I think as long as you have a certain angle then it could work pretty well for you as you have the skills already to run the website.
good luck either way, G
Do you have a strong social network? Myspace, facebook or MSN? You can get paid for your friends playing games on your site: http://www.uvme.biz/74994GA Click on the link and watch the video. |
Alot of the other sites are a nightmare to either use properly or navigate. If you can build a site which actually works well you could do well. I like the local directory idea too. You might be able to include a local business section. I realise we have yellow pages but the cost isn't worth the results. Your site may be a welcome alternative.
I'd say get cracking mate. |
I was reading your recent post regarding a dating website and would like to elaborate further on your idea but with a slightly different concept which I believe has not been done yet. I do not have sufficient knowledge of IT but have a business background. If you would like to discuss this further please email me at firstname.lastname@example.com regards, Pontus |

Heh, that's true, challenge 30 of every character is "different". Although, I am fairly confident on the challenges, because I'm normally good at them(finished all Street Fighters/Blazblue/etc challenges) but Score Attack on the other hand...that will be hell. |

Just now finally putting this down after 9 hours of playing it non stop with the training, and playing some story modes, and I gotta say.....I'm intrigued, I'm still getting used to the battle system but once I have time to actually sit and learn it I intend on going online.
My comment on the English voices is...Seeing as how I'm more experience with Persona 3 than Persona 4 I must say it was nice to hear the original cast again in their original voices again. Mitsuru sounds JUST like she did in Persona 3, Akihiko sounds the sound but with a deeper voice, and Aegis was a big blast for the past for me especially due to the fact that she sounds just like I remembered, Haven't heard Elizabeth yet.

Well finally beat Narukami's story and now the job begins to finish story mode for the rest of the characters (which won't take long)
Spoiler for Narukami Story mode end and overall story mode thoughts:
Personally think the game has been worth it for the story mode alone. Just a fun epilogue you can throw onto both Persona 3 and 4.

Just watched the Wednesday Night Fight that featured a Persona 4 Ultimate tournament and holy crap does Yukiko ever seem like a Kuroyukihime reference in this entry. She looks a hell of a lot like her sprite wise, kind of has her mannerisms, her persona is covered in blades, she attacks in a very swift and graceful style with bladed fans and as if to make it super obvious her title is "The Unconquerable Snow Black".
All the characters in this game look like they'd be interesting to try out based on what I've seen. Think I'm probably going to pick this up along with KOFXIII at some point. Hope it makes it to PSN and makes the decision easier for me though. By the way if anyone knows, why are their two different versions of Labrys? |

Well now that I've defeated story mode maybe I can see what the rest of the game has to offer . Yeah, I just couldn't help myself playing through the entire thing before really touching the rest of the game. On the positive had a fun time and got a feel for the characters so will be easier to decide who to focus on.

Just finished story mode with all the characters. That is indeed quite the tease for a new game. Persona 4 Arena 2 will definitely be made now, especially after how well the game preformed and sold in Japan. Atlus would have to be total fools not to follow up on it's success.
And toward the speculators, I'm pretty sure Persona 5 has nothing to do with this right now. It could potentially be set in the same universe, but it'll likely have a whole new plot, setting and cast of characters separate from this game.

Book Review: The Little Book That Beats the Market: Joel Greenblatt
This book is a short little piece with lots of humor, but do not mistake it's brevity for lack of content and power. The methodology that this book recommends is so easy and so powerful that the author risks having the reader not taking it seriously. I beg you, take this seriously and you will be handsomely rewarded.

Wichita man gets maximum sentence in attempt to molest girl
A Wichita man who pleaded no contest in January to furnishing alcohol to a 13-year-old girl and trying to sexually molest her was sentenced Thursday to 4 1/2 years in prison.
Prosecutors said Andrew Headding, 24, was staying at the home of a friend in October 2012 when he took the girl to the basement, forced her to drink vodka and played a "dirty" card game with her. Prosecutors said he then made her remove her clothes and molested her, and that a second incident involving the same girl occurred a month later.
District Judge Bruce Brown imposed the maximum sentence on Headding on one count each of aggravated indecent solicitation of a child, attempted aggravated indecent solicitation and furnishing alcohol to a minor. He ordered Headding to serve the sentences consecutively.

So Gran Turismo 5 finally came out in the US. The game kicks ass, I have to say that's the best looking car game ever made. The graphics finally are pushing the PS3 to what is capable of doing... Some cars look like actual pictures of them, the shades are insane. The recreation of the cars engine noise is very accurate and so is how the cars accelerate and handle.
The downside is that yes the game lacks that GT character that their games usually have. And the races are not as exiting as the previous games. But we do have online playing which is amazing, although they have to fix a few bugs on it. Overall I say buy it you won't regret it, yes the issue that is a demo and not a full game is debatable, but still for the price is pretty damn good price. |
I picked this up Friday. The graphics are great and the play is really good. I am disappointed with it overall. It could be that this is just the prologue and not the full game but it lacks a lot from GT4. I'll have to see once the full game is released if they make changes.

First impression on unpacking the Q702 test unit was the solid feel and clean, minimalist styling.
For work use, Microsoft Word and Excel programs pre-installed on the device are adequate for preparing short documents.
The Fujitsu LifeBook UH574 allowed for great mobility without being obnoxiously heavy or clunky. Its twelve hours of battery life did not disappoint.
The screen was particularly good. It is bright and visible from most angles, however heat is an issue, particularly around the Windows button on the front, and on the back where the battery housing is located.
My first impression after unboxing the Q702 is that it is a nice looking unit. Styling is somewhat minimalist but very effective. The tablet part, once detached, has a nice weight, and no buttons or switches are located in awkward or intrusive positions.

Miranda Herrington lives in a small town in New York. Her father is a doctor and she has learned enough from him to be a doctor herself. In fact, that is her dream. However, no one seems to have any intention of letting her live it.
Luke Quinton and Reese Martin have decided they are sick of being shot at, and so have retired from being lawmen. Miranda's home is just a pit stop for them, or so they think.
When Luke is shot during a barroom dispute, Reece takes him to the local doctor's house in the hopes the doctor can extract the bullet. Instead, he meets Miranda, the doctor's daughter and falls instantly in lust. There's only one problem, he and Luke like to share a woman between them, and he doubts the shy, and beautiful Miranda is going to go for something like that. However, Miranda surprises both of them by being the perfect woman for them. In spite of the fact that they love Miranda and she them, when she is offered the job of town doctor, Miranda decides she needs to take it and live her dream. There's only problem, the local sheriff has his own agenda and it is not to the benefit of Miranda.
This has to be one of the best ménage stories I've had the pleasure of reading. I really enjoyed how quickly the characters fell for each other, and how tender both Luke and Reese were with Miranda. It was nice for once to read about men in this earlier time period who did not think less of Miranda because she was willing to follow through on her sexual desires. The love making in this story is positively scorching and darned near singed my fingers as I flipped the pages. The descriptions of both the South Dakota Territory, and a small town in New York are well done and reflective of the time period. This is a wonderful story that I'm more than happy to recommend.

Way back in 1998, Chris and Roberta Hanley's Muse Prods. was at the center of a Cannes fest casting brouhaha that involved Leonardo DiCaprio and their film version of Bret Easton Ellis' "American Psycho." Leo didn't wind up in the picture, but the Mary Harron-helmed film helped launch Christian Bale into the acting stratosphere, so there's your happy Cannes ending.
This year, the indie filmmakers have outdone themselves attention-wise, first aided by James Franco's Instagram attacks on their "Spring Breakers: The Second Coming" project, which is being actively promoted here by Wild Bunch, then courtesy of talks about talks for roles in the film with members of the Russian dissidents/music artists group Pussy Riot.
Pussy Riot issued a statement denying any knowledge of the talks or interest in the project, but as is so often the case with the Hanleys, their ambitions and associations in the edgiest and most colorful extremes of literature and culture has characterized their shingle's history.
As one veteran distributor who worked with them observed in Cannes this week, "Chris and Roberta will do anything for their movies. There used to be other producers like them in that way, but now there are damn few."
Chris Hanley said, "We're spending all our energy here in Cannes on our efforts for 'Second Coming.' " The Hanleys were involved in "Spun," whose director, Jonas Akerlund, will helm "Coming" from an original screenplay by author Irvine Welsh.
Among their many active film projects, Martin Amis' "London Fields," starring Amber Heard and featuring Johnny Depp, will be ready for the fall festival season.
Other projects on the Muse slate include spy thriller "An Expensive Education," from the novel by Nick McDonell, with a screenplay by Roberta Hanley. Equally edgy and political is their planned film of "The Vatican Connection," based upon the true story of NYPD Detective Joe Coffey and a case involving Vatican bankers and a shadowy figures from the world's of politics and global high-finance.
The couple announced the signing of Brit director Michael Winterbottom in Cannes and hope to be in production on the film in late 2014-early 2015.

TRAVERSE CITY, Mich. (AP) - The use of flame-fueled sky lanterns in northern Michigan is prompting concern among fire officials.
The Traverse City Record-Eagle reports sky lanterns, also known as Chinese flying lanterns, have sparked a fire in a pine tree at Traverse City State Park on one lantern's ascent, and another prompted a small garage fire when it prematurely landed.
Some people release the lanterns to symbolize the floating-away of problems and worries. They're usually made of a block of paraffin or cardboard suspended by a wire or bamboo frame. They're lit to heat air to send the lantern aloft, similar to a hot air balloon.
The lanterns should land when the flame goes out, but that always isn't the case. The lanterns are banned in some places but legal in Michigan.

"We stand here today in memorial to two brothers who got us to where we are today. They were called Gerard and Frankie or as we knew them Dr Death and Bloody Angel. They were two heroes, the founders and leaders of The Bandits. In the late 2800s the world entered the fourth world war, it was hell and I'm glad I wasn't alive at the time. It started with biological warfare soon those people had zombies running around and mutated freaks killing anything that moved, this happened across the world. People couldn't fight their enemies because they fought amongst each other but eventually the war ended when one country fired the nuke. It all went to hell, when one country fired so did another and another and another. Soon the world became nothing but a barren wasteland as people tried desperately to survive. The year 3000 it all changed when a man known as Mr Albert Saitian led an expedition to find one safe haven. He did, I don't know what country it was on, and all I know is that he did it. He named it Paradise and Paradise welcomed everyone, there was no monarch but a president. Saitian became the president and there was never an election as his company Saitian Union was the company in charge of everything. Soon Paradise began to fail, there were too many residents and supplies were dropping. Saitians Union made a choice to increase taxes so high that half the population wouldn't be able to afford it and would fall into recession. Soon residents who couldn't pay were forced into slavery in order to maintain citizenship however you couldn't leave Paradise, Saitian wouldn't allow it, once you entered you never left. In the year 3013 the two brothers Gerard (Dr Death) and Frankie (Bloody Angel) began a revolution with their father and in the year 3015. They succeed creating their own clan in the desert called the Bandits which the two brothers glad fully lead. Their father died in the final battle when he decided to go for Saitian when the two brothers went to save the slaves. Their father never returned and was rumoured to have been brutally attacked by Saitian and executed the next day publically. The brothers took their people to the desert to live away from Saitian. They were always hunted by him, always clinging to survive against the world's many challenges. Dr Death swore that he would avenge his father's death and those slaves whose Saitian's men killed and the Bandits who fell to Saitian's army. Dr D dubbed them as Satan's Union and he swore to his people that one day he would over throw them, destroy them and take Paradise for his people. Little did Dr D know that the story he was always most famous for... was how he kept his people alive, how he cared for each and every one of them and how he would be the one who saved them from Paradise and Satan's army. The Legend of Dr Death and Bloody Angel began in 3020 when the two men were 19 years of age

svglibsvglib is an extension module for the Open Source RLTK, the ReportLab ToolKit and provides SVG reading and reusing capabilities to a reasonable degree. As a module it reads existing SVG files and returns them converted to ReportLab Drawing objects that can be used in a variety of contexts, like in RML2PDF, Platypus or PythonPoint. As a command-line tool it converts SVG files into PDF ones. Modest documentation will follow, soon. So far, there is only a presentation which I have given at EPC 2002 with many samples.

GT Planet Staff, I'm sick and tired of the 0/0 collecting debate. People should play thier game however they want and not be ridiculed for it. This debate falls into the same category as the 4WD Drifting, Duping, No Porsche, etc... No winners. Here's the latest thread: https://www.gtplanet.net/forum/showthread.php?t=252034 The thread has no value whatsoever. First off the answer to what a 0/0/0 car is can be found by searching. The answer has been answered dozens of times already. https://www.gtplanet.net/forum/showthread.php?t=235427&highlight=0%2F0%2F0+cars https://www.gtplanet.net/forum/showthread.php?t=224424 https://www.gtplanet.net/forum/showthread.php?t=232000 https://www.gtplanet.net/forum/showthread.php?t=220828 https://www.gtplanet.net/forum/showthread.php?t=244989&highlight=0%2F0%2F0+cars https://www.gtplanet.net/forum/showthread.php?t=215394&highlight=0%2F0%2F0+cars There are tons more.... and they just keep coming.... This one in particular is a great example of why these threads are pointless. :https://www.gtplanet.net/forum/showthread.php?t=243382&highlight=deserve These threads all have a common theme. Someone will say something along the lines of "It's only a game, these cars are meant to be driven, your not playing the game properly, you have OCD, etc..." I was hoping that we can start reporting these threads/post and they become locked immediatly or warned if it's a post. In the past I have seen the staff do this. https://www.gtplanet.net/forum/showthread.php?t=234499 But as you can see there are way more examples of no action taken. This may only be a minor thing to most staff and I totally understand that, also there is not really any staff that frequents the marketplace that really takes this subject to heart, but to some of us, especially the people from the marketplace this is a touchy subject and I feel were not getting our due respect by letting these threads continue. So once and for all can we just add what a 0/0 car is to the stickies and start killing these threads as they come. You can even tell by the tone of the OP they are usually just trolling threads.
I agree. The definition of what a 0/0/0 car is should be in the sticky and an end put to the "this is what I do with my game and I'm going to bash anything that is different" threads/posts. I don't drift in GT5 but because I don't I'm not going to start a thread trying to illustrate non-existent pointlessness to it (merely an example). Everyone is going to do what they enjoy in this game and we all don't have to agree on 1 way to play it. The forum should be a friendly, helpful place free of any form of discrimination and/or judgement.
I agree everyone should be able to play the game how they want to and not be jugded by others who play it differently.
Yeah, stop it! Doesn't bother me either way, I never read them - come to think about it, not sure why I read this one.
For real. Anyone can play like they want. If anyone is against my opinion, whats the worst they can do? Caps Lock me to death? Its not like they change anything...
Freedom of speech. They may, if they want, share their own opinion on this forum as long as it abides to the AUP. As far as I know, that's how it works.
Well, this issue is akin to the IBTL (In Before the Lock) posts that plagued GTP in the past, but this is more of a bias issue than a non-contributing-post issue that IBTL became. Freedom of speech only runs so far, until it becomes counter-productive, or just downright annoying. I can't seem to find that thread about the IBTL. It used to be stickied somewhere... https://www.gtplanet.net/forum/showthread.php?t=177110 EDIT:I agree with any posts suggesting a stickied "0/0/0" description. It would (Perhaps) alleviate the mass of threads emerging from the subject.
3rd line of AUP reads: You can sift through some of those threads I posted including the latest and see the hate for yourself. Or if a member of the staff ask me to provide examples I will go dig up more post and actually quote people, but I'm sure everyone knows what I'm talking about already. If this was freedom of speech on this site then their wouldn't be taboo subjects like I listed in the OP. This subject is taboo worthy IMO.
I think it's the defensive attitude (Or harassing in their own way) of some collectors that trigger such a reaction. I could be wrong and digging and looking through a bunch of whiny posts is not how anyone would want to spend there time so I'll stay out of that.
Hi Mr. HOODFIELD, I can literally feel your anger and my mirror neurons are dancing lambada. I totally agree and subscribe your speech. But PLEASE correct the brands name "Porshe" into "Porsche". It really hurts my German eyes. No offense, mate! Thanks. <--- This will be edited if OP is updated, you don´t need to reply.
In my many criticisms of people who seem to need to collect Virtual cars which have no virtual miles on them, so they are virtually pristine, I have NEVER been hateful, and I have NEVER been abusive. Do I think it is a waste of time? Indeed. Should people be abused because of it? Certainly not. Should people be allowed to share their perspective in a civil way? Of course.
I agree that people need to stop asking these questions and maybe a dictionary of terms and what that implies should be stickied. The Porsche one particularly winds me up. But in my honest opinion if somebody does post something such as "whats so good about 0/0/0?" I honestly think the best type of response would not be Just seems unfair to someone who wanted a question answering
I'm making a suggestion to make the site better, I care because I enjoy using the site. Of course it's up to the mods to apply the AUP I'm simply bringing this matter to their attention because I feel it gets overlooked. If they don't agree with me thats fine, but I'm saying something regardless. I'm not discrediting anyone's opinion or saying people should not be allowed to share it on this matter. What I'm saying is there are already existing threads that already contain both sides views on this matter, everything that needs to be said has already been said and then said again in different words by someone else. Time to just put it to bed and stop talking about it. We're not going to learn anything new at this point. I had actually answered the question, then later removed it, but there was originally a serious answer there. I had also reported that thread (for trolling) and nothing was done. I'm not saying there is anything wrong with asking the question, what I'm saying is everytime the question is asked it turns into a debate about how you should spend your free time. What else bothers me is the fact there is a Marketplace subforum which brings in traffic, ad revenue, premium memberships etc... to this site. Collecting and 0/0 collecting in particular are regular themes over there. I think it's time for GT Planet to take an official stance on this subject in respect to the people who enjoy doing this. All I'm asking is if future threads on this subject can get locked with the report button, same way a duplicate PSN outage thread gets locked. If the staff collectively takes positions on subjects like 4WD drifting, and wishlists then I don't see this as an unreasonable request.
Agreed Hoodfield. Within the tools of this forum is an icon called "search" it seldom gets used by newer users or someone who thinks they are the only one with a "hot topic or subject" and they have to be the one to post it up. It's too bad (take a look around, the evidence is there... as in your OP). I'm sure the Boys in Blue are trying their damndest to try and filter out such threads and keep the forum as clean as possible concerning duplicate, triplicate, quadruple threads of the same topic. But as real life has it, unfortunately you can't catch all of it, things happen.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but unless there are personal attacks involved, people can love or hate whatever they want, and that's all within the boundaries of the AUP. If you don't like what you read in those threads, don't click on them. If it's offensive/abusive, report to a mod. If the mods don't act on it, than obviously it's not as important to the site as you think. If people think 0/0/0 collecting is stupid and want to discuss that, they have every right to do so. While reading this thread, I find it sounds suspiciously like a 'please ban threads that I don't agree with' thread. I do agree about the 'what is 0/0/0?' question though, that's been answered to death and should be in a FAQ/sticky.
Hi Hood totally agree with you. Nice OP. Thats one thing I would like to see with GTPlanet is the amalgamation of certain stickies (Or threads) to make it as simple as possible for any new members to be pointed in the right direction to a question they may have and which have more than likely been answered already? While I say that, its not just 0/0/0 but many a subject matter? And secondly while these things could go on it would give chance for mods to get rid of some of the further threads that keep asking the same questions? Over an over again. Just a simple few tasks to clean up the messy place,s that arise thru out the GTPlanet site. With multiples of threads for the same questions. Anyway nice thread keep up the good work you do round here. Chat soon bye for now.
I simply can't understand any of the bickering over this game at all - and let's face it, with cars, museum cards, gear, paint, tickets and horns, GT5 practically promotes OCD
Now thats definately one I agree with. PD promotes Obsessivecompulsive disorder in my opinion with all the collecting. LOL But I guess its up to the individuals to stop it. (Not easy when you get on the bandwagon)
Therein lies the problem. While yours is a verbal answer, how many will adhere to it ? How many will see your answer of "read the stickies" ? Few ... if any. Sad to say but it's true. I'm going to go off topic just a bit here, sorry. I don't mean to thread jack from Hoodfields original OP, but reading stickies has to be addressed. Maybe this should be a thread in itself. A prime example of "not reading stickies" can be found in the Marketplace. How many times do you see a member wanting to trade for an untradeable car ? Quite a few. How does one get a member to read a sticky before posting a want ad for a particular car that is not obtainable via trade ? I'm guessing here, but I cannot be certain on how this works, if it is at all possible. Before posting a "want ad" in the marketplace, is it possible to have the thread re-directed to the sticky stating that certain cars cannot be traded ? The same can be said / applied to anything in this forum that is stickied. Before starting a thread, can you get re-directed to the proper sticky ? Perhaps this may cut down on excess threads that do not need to be. Just a thought.
The AUP is something that is to be read when you sign up for GTPlanet. How many actually read that ? The same answer, few, if any. Once again, sad but true.
Firstly congrats on the promotion. Noticed the avatar. But I agree read the stickies, Like myself when I first came here am guilty like any new member? They have a tendencie to be flown past. Thats the answer we need. Don,t work, Even when you point new members or someone who just make threads that seem pointless when there question has been answered previously but unable to go search for an answer whats already out there? Majority of people think they are the first to come up with that elusive question. So its easier for them to make a new thread, So we end up with hundreds of the same type of threads for one question? Am guilty too, But my lesson has been learnt. With time served on here. ________________________ Reason for adding this last quote is. Why must we endure thread upon thread with the self same questions or type of questions that have been answered before. Search function is not being utilised. The example given was about 0/0/0 but it could be about many a subject here on GTPlanet?
I signed up to another forum a couple of months ago and when I signed up, I had to read all of the stickies and to stop me just skipping it, I had to stay on the same thread for at least 1 minute. I wonder if it would be possible to run something like that here if the forum software allows it. (It was a VBulletin forum so I don't see why not)
Your absolutly right by saying simply don't click on them. The problem with that answer is applies to any thread. So instead of locking a GT6 wishlist thread why not just not click on it? Instead of locking a thread about why Porshe wasn't included in the game why not just ignore it? See what I'm getting at? Mods are the ones with the power to enforce this etiquette. It doesn't say in the AUP your not allowed to start a thread about Porshe yet its part of the forums unwritten etiquette. Also about mods not acting on it, I was feeling like it was inconsistant. I gave an example where the thread got locked, I gave a bunch of examples of where it didn't. That was only a 5 min search that brought me those threads and there are tons more. I'm also bringing attention to this matter in hopes moderation becomes more consistent. Like I said I reported that older thread and nothing happened. At the very least it should have been locked for being a duplicate, not necessarly because I felt the OP was trolling. Not at all man. If I felt that way I would have said something a year ago when these threads first started popping up. I've been noticing them for a long time now, and I finally felt like saying something. I didn't think much of it at first, but after a year of seeing the same argument, I felt like offering this suggestion. Also people have been discussing that 0/0/0 is stupid for over a year now, thats sort of my point. It shouldn't be allowed if other topics like "no Porshe in GT5" aren't allowed either. Another example, I wouldn't just go start a thread about "People who use Photomode are wasting their time because this is a driving game" yet that is exactly what happens in these 0/0 debate threads. Just read the OP of the latest one. Exactly, it's been done to death. I think everyone is missing the point I'm trying to make. It's not about reading the stickies. It's about respecting how other people play the game whether you agree with it or not. I keep repeating myself but the best way I can explain it is the AWD drifting example. https://www.gtplanet.net/forum/showthread.php?t=175072 The way I'm reading this thread, is GT Planet acknowedges there is 4WD drifting and people are not allowed to argue otherwise because it still technically drifting. https://www.gtplanet.net/forum/showthread.php?t=175512 Also states that "even the use of the term "drifting" in relation to non-RWD cars will similarly be met with a lock." So basically no more AWD drifting threads because the discussion leads no-where. If I'm reading that wrong please correct me as I don't have much knowledge on the matter. What I'm saying is I believe this 0/0 topic should be given the same type of attention. Now here we are over a year later. Marketplace subfourm still bringing in traffic to this site. Tons of 0/0 collectors on this site, tons. It's very obvious that this is a viable way of playing the game. There is an entire subfourm dedicated to it and its the main reason I enjoy the site and I'm sure it is for many others as well. So why shouldn't GT Planet step in and say "Enough 0/0 discussion, play the game how you please." Just like they did for the AWD drifters. I'm not asking anyone to do additional work. I'm not asking anyone to merge threads. I'm not asking anyone to erase the existing threads with peoples opposing opinions. I'm not saying moderators are doing a bad job. Im happy that this site is run fairly strict and thats the reason I thought it would be ok to ask this. I'm also not asking anyone to agree with me. I'm simply making an observation that I didn't believe mods were taking notice too. All I'm asking is if we can report NEW threads (so they can get locked before it turns into a debate) and report NEW blatant trolling post on this subject.
Yup. Certain people were trying to issue their own official proclamations that those who drift 4WD cars couldn't post in/participate in the drifting forum (largely by way of making it as uninviting as possible for those people) by defining the term to suit themselves. The two posts you cite can best be summarised as "Jordan makes the rules, not you.". It's nothing to do with GTP officially recognising anything - nor is it related to this "situation" in any way but one. 0/0/0 collecting is a way some people play the game (hey, I like a nice original to go with the awesome car I drive so I've always got a spare to clone to myself) - just as drifting 4WD cars is (and the fact PD made a 4WD-specific drag event suggests they do too). Some people don't. Some people really dislike 0/0/0 collecting or 4WD drifting. This seems to be the limit of "the debate". So what? When people start trying to force 0/0/0 collectors out of the Marketplace forum by ganging up and making their own street rules, we'll be visiting certain moderator controls. Until then it's irrelevant. People are free to play the game how they want to and say so. The downside of that freedom, for them, is that other people are free to play the game how they want and say so.
This does seem to be quite a common question in the Marketplace, so I've just added a simple, informational sticky thread that should hopefully cut down on questions about these types of cars. To add to Famine's comments and to re-iterate one of the points you already made, please do report anything that you feel is abusive towards or harasses another member or group of members.
