MMOs are intended to be deep, lengthy, immersive experiences. I don't mean to down the casual player, but where do you think "short," "easy," or "quick" fits into such a description? How immersed can you get into a book by reading 4 pages of the 800 or so included in the novel? How deeply immersive is a show when you watch 20 minutes of an hour-long episode of a 12-episode season in one sitting? How attached can you become to the world, its settings and characters, and their struggles in such a small window?
My point being (and much hatred will probably be generated by this): MMOs aren't compatible with casual play. By the very nature of what it originally meant to be an MMO, it took a larger time investment than singleplayer RPGs. Time to develop acquaintances, friends, guilds. Time to collect skills, spells, abilities, and equipment enough to elevate your character to the next adventure. Time to pull together a band of warriors you knew were adept enough to tackle that dungeon. Ones that, either by your own experiences or the experiences of someone whose opinion you trusted, weren't total pricks.
Some may state that it's a hobby; they don't want to have to invest such time into a hobby. But such a time investment is no different than another hobby. Do you like to play sports? Well, you can toss a ball up into the air by yourself and catch it many times in less than 5 minutes. It's not nearly as much fun as playing the actual game, but it is playing. You can then add a friend and toss the ball to one another. More fun than by yourself, but you have to coordinate when you and your friend have free time, and so it takes a little more time and planning. Then, on the other end of the spectrum, you can play actual full-fledged pickup games with a large group of people, maybe even in an organized tournament. However, surprise surprise: that takes a significantly larger time investment and planning than does tossing the ball with your friend. It should be no different in MMOs.

Not every MMO should be casual, not every MMO needs to be for EVERYONE. There can be MMOs for people who want to solo everything, just as there should be such for people who want something more.
I've read through the first 30 pages only, and I guess the problem is that MMO developers want to make everyone and anyone happy. That's not gonna happen.... ever. So they should instead choose a target market - just like normal companies do. And then give those players a truly epic experience, give them a reason to throw money at you, instead of making everyones experience ... meh, and having everyone desert the game a couple of months after its release.

My own opinion is that it should be possible for someone to solo as much as the person wants and then interact with others whenever the person wants. Ideally speaking.

In an MMO I'm of the opinion that grouping should always be the quickest, most efficient way of doing things. Levelling up could be done solo but at a much slower pace than grouping, same with faction farming. The best gear should always only be available to people who group.

But in all fairness, it really should be. You're taking more time, putting forth more coordination, adding more variables. The reward should be higher. I'm not saying solo play should not be viable. By all means, if you detest groups, you can level to max rank and gather adequate equipment through solo play. But I think it silly to suggest this method of play in an MMO should be as efficient and rewarding (and I say that strictly referring to loot, not your personal enjoyment) as group play. You put forth less effort, less time, and do not deal with as many uncertain variables. As such, your reward should match your reduced risk. That just seems logical to me.

I always find the solo vs group thing quite silly really. If it wasn't for the WoWification of MMO's we wouldn't even be having this discussion. It's really simple - we play online games so we can play with or against other people. That's the whole point of making an online game, bringing multiple people together into a game world to shoot each other in the face or combine abilities to do amazing things. The trinity for example - DPS does loads of damage, Tank takes the danger away from the DPS and Healer, and the Healer keeps the Tank up. It's the combination of different roles coming together to face things that one person alone couldn't deal with.
So this discussion about preferring to solo and everything should be available solo, to me, is just ridiculous. If you want to play alone then why are you jumping into an online game? Of course, because the current batch of MMO's allows it. So did the earlier MMO's in a lesser, more restricted way, but back then teamwork was the name of the game, as it should be with an online game.

I'm not saying that soloing shouldn't be feasible, I'm saying that grouping should always reward (both exp & loot) better than soloing. If you want to log in and play for an hour due to time restraints but feel that you can't group in that time, then fine, solo away but don't expect to level up as quickly as the person who's able to grind it out for 4 hours at a time in a group.
If you want an analogy from that blight on MMOs: WoW has 3 tiers of basic rewards (green, blue and purple), if you solo all the time, expect only green rewards, if you group expect blue rewards, if you raid expect purple rewards.

The reward should even out to be the same, but you're right, that should take into account time spent to gather a group and coordinate, so xp should probably be slightly faster once you get started, but not so fast that you leave solo players in the dust.
Originally posted by Madimorga
Agreed. To me, it should simply be a difference in potential. A really good group can level you substantially faster than solo play, but a bad one can slow you down past the rate at which you would progress solo. Risk vs. reward again. That's a delicate balance, and I haven't seen an MMO pull it off in a while. The next time it does, I'll have found a home for my MMO itch again.

Well when it comes on playing MMO, I prefer soloing at the first part, however, as level goes up, monsters also goes harder than the first one forcing me to switch into gruop play (maybe common for MMO's). Most especially when it comes to boss hunts and guild wards (whatsoever they called it in other games).

My mmo.
type of leveling option
1. pve
2. pvp
3. wvw
4. crafting/work
gameplay example
1.Create character
2. Arrive at Prontera. Lv 1
3. Get a job at town. example cake and pizza shop
4. Work. get lv 2. get paid 15 silver. Work is daily activities that can be done once that give u level exp and money. U get paid better as your work rank increase.
When you gain your work level, you can get paid up to 10+ gold a day!
When u get to max work level, you can get licend to start your own business
If player want to get the best equipment in WvW part of this game, playing working part of the game is crucial because easy cash was there.
5. Rent a house for a house buff. Small house rent 10 silver a day. You can sleep and bath there. own a house, sleep, bath, eat,drink give a small buff for duration of time.(12 hours++)
Player still can, eat, bath and sleep at inn that cost much lower. like 5 silver. But player wont have house buff and garden.
You have a small garden at your house so u can farm and start a trading run later. But before u can farm, u need money to start the trading run business.
6. Go to pve low level map with all the buff. Kill lv 2 monster. get lv 3. Kill lv 3 monster. get lv 4
Becareful in pve, there might be high level enemy player assassin that finding player for gold. Killing enemy player in their pve map will grant 1gold per head to the assassin.
More details about pve.
Every week, 2 server world will be paired together. They can walk to each other pve map. Like open world pvp.
Every server has low level map, medium level map, high level map, shared world boss map.
The distance is like this:
Server A citadel > low level map A > Medium level A > High level A > Shared boss map A and B < High level B < Medium B < low B map < Server B citadel
This include naval battle.
So the world is connected. Every week server will be paired with other server depends on the server performance.
7. Boring with pve? Que for 10vs10 pvp tournament!you gain 50% experience and 50 silver each win! if u lose u still get 25% experience and 25 silver!
All player is at max level and wear same equipment level in a fair pvp arena fight.
Player can que for proper 30 minutes pvp game or just join hotjoin that give less money and less exp.
Pve small buff (like home,eat,drink,etc) wont carry for pvp. This place is total fair balance fight. Esport play
8. Start saving to 5 gold and you can start your 1st trading run! Example trading item = aloha Chicken Pizza.
Player can buy some of the ingrediants at merchant npc and farm the other ingrediants. You can farm the pineapples at your garden. Pineapples takes 1 day to complete ripe.
crafting items give player exp and work rank.
You can, buy the ingreadiants from other players.
Trading run is bringing the items to the enemy territory and sell it with higher price.
There is pve trading and wvw trading.
5gold bunch of pizza can be sold 10gold in enemy territory.
Trading run is dangerous and the items might fall into enemy and player get killed by pirate and assassin.
trading run can be at sea and land.
Trading run in wvw give more gold.
9. Still an uplevel and want to try Wvw? Yes u can! join commander and if u lucky u can get free exp from capturing enemy towers, camp, keeps.
1 server can only has 100 players per map (2 map, the 2nd is naval battle, 200 player in 1 server) at the time. If more player, they will que the map.
10. After all the hardwork, dedication, blood, sweat and tears (No blueprint, best uplevel NA).You finally reach max level 99! Now what?
start working on your exotic equipment! Get to full exotic. Do wvw daily! kill world boss! gain gold!
11. So i get all exotic now what?
So now u are stronger than ever. Fight for your server! Get more gold by getting ur server best place every week and getting a lot of gold reward.
12. Start leading your guild to the top! Try guild vs guild matchmaking! get lots of gold for placing the top!!
13. Now i have all the gold! what now!!!
Start crafting your own ascended equipment!! ascended later can be upgraded to legendary equipment! get more gold! kill enemy players! conquer territories!
Build mansion houses! get more land for farming! gain gold!! Bigger house give bigger buff!
14) They will be series of pvp tournament, gvg tournament, wvw tournament, 1v1 tournament from time to time. The champion will rewarded with legendary weapon.
15) Im too lazy with all this grinding, im a casual player.
Then pvp is for you! play a 30 min 10vs10 game. Where everyone is max level and same equipment level. only skills and teamwork matters!
Im still thinking to make this pvp mode more like dota 2, but with absent of level. You will have troops, and capture towers and destroy enemy base.
The reason is, adding level will imbalance the game and give no space for catching up as the winning player will become more powerful each time they win. This will make the game end earlier.
16) Lets take a look at the game classes.
1. Assassin - ninja class
2. Knight - cool knight
3. Sorceress - elemental magic
4. Sniper - gun user
5. Ranger - bow user
6. Priestess - holy magic
7. Paladin - tanker
8. Champion - best martial arts
9. Pirate - bad guy
10. Melody - musical magic
11. Alchemist - androids
12. Blacksmith - Weapon and armor specialist
13. Warlock - Undead magic and summoner
14. Sage - anti magic
15. Warrior - barbaric
16. Phantom - illusion
17. Witch - Black magic
18. Summoner - Have companion fight along side
Skills is not weapon lock. You can wear any desired weapon.
Role (dps, tanker, support) is not class lock. You can be assassin, but a tank, a support.
This game will be mix of Ragnarok online, Guild War 2, Archeage, Kingdom Under Fire 2.

Generating successive casings as a 3D game called ' make' . Making above teapot for the graphics card will have a modest work . In a game with shifting males , hills, heavens , thorough shadows , and so forth differs. The video card can use results and processes for greater images to enhance the operation of the graphics accelerator card also to show off. Better themselves
Anti - Aliasing makes the edges of 3D objects smoother . So the transition between a thing and its particular history, say, is substantially simpler the picture elements which can be located in the edges of an object are blended by means of the encompassing pixels. In the images underneath, remaining and right have no zero- aliased .
Without anti-aliasing ( click for larger image ) With anti aliasing (click for sizeable example)
In the instance above uses Full -Scene Anti- Aliasing ( FSAA ) . Frankly the entire image is in a spin - antialiased period . Regularly you are able to get different strong points of anti aliasing setting in a game . In the illustration above ( Battlefield 2 ) you're able to select between n one, 2x or 4x FSAA . Anti aliasing has an adverse influence in the performance of the sport .
Anisotropic selection anisotopische filtering is a process to hang in there. Textures clean and exquisite about an object ( 3 D wireframe ) It enhances the appearance of the feels as they may be simply at a terrific distance or if they lie on an inclined airplane in accordance with the ' perspective ' . Anisotropic selection is the video controller is an incredibly tough job . It will produce the sport more wonderful in look , but nonetheless, it is going to have damaging sway about the pace .
The above effects do you encounter on contemporary movie cards . You can find a lot of additional techniques which use video cards to accentuate the image Be it to boost the operation (that is ultimately an optimistic influence about the image ) . Quicker video Card-Some of those methods are unique into a unique producer. So as never to belong to complex explanations and meanings in this post I 'll stick with the aforementioned methods.

I really enjoy playing solo with other ppl around.
I find having other people around mixes things up enough to make it more interesting, like doing crazy stuff in town or weird conversations in world chat, maybe killing everything just before I get there or suddenly attacking me in a pvp zone.
I don't want to group with anybody, but it would be boring without them.

I'm almost always chatting in an MMO with friends, but I don't play with any of them because their playstyle and my playstyle almost never coincide. Everyone is rushing to endgame, I don't play endgame at all. Everyone wants as much XP per hour as possible, I want to take things slow, search through the dungeons, loot every drop, etc. Since everyone else is running off down the corridor, shooting everything that moves and most things that don't, I just don't play with them.
Therefore I solo, both because I have no one to play with that isn't frustrating and because so many people in MMOs are just pricks. I agree though, it's nice to have at least some of them around, even if a lot of them, I'd like to just string up by their testicles.
Played: UO, EQ, WoW, DDO, SWG, AO, CoH, EvE, TR, AoC, GW, GA, Aion, Allods, lots more

Group v. Solo is irrelevant. MMORPGs should offer alternatives to progression - not leveling as levels assume end game, you should be able to do everything from when you roll your character to when you quit playing. Whether you wish to solo or group quest, run dungeons or raids, PvP, gather, craft or just explore an MMO should offer everyone these alternatives to progress their character. If you want to try a new profession you should be able to without having to reroll.
But, as my father used to say... I am living in cloud cuckoo land... so this will never happen.

MMO and solo play are a unique concept, I often play solo as it's just natural for me, but it's like being introverted in the game, I'm fine with meeting others, just tend to do my own thing.
"One of the guiding principles of our Veteran gameplay was to encourage you (not force you) to group. We wanted you to be able to reach max level by playing solo if you wished, but still encourage you to group with others along the way. This principle was the reason we made our post-50 zones more difficult; we wanted you to get together with others to take on tougher challenges and form social bonds while you did so. But we understand that, despite our vision, this is not how all our players want to experience the game beyond level 50."
The above is a Zenimax announcement regarding Elder Scrolls changes.
Anyone else thinkZenimax devs aren't the only ones employing this type of arm twisting to get solo players to group? I find that devs won't be honest and say they don't want solo players (because they want our money) so they just try to make soloing unrewarding and grindy all out of proportion to group content.
I'm glad this came back and bit Zenimax in the ass. I hope solo players will start noticing these techniques in other games and openly protest it and refuse to tolerate it. Don't want us to solo? Tell us your game is not for us. Want our money? Cater to our play style and leave off with the arm twisting.

last week. I expect RNAI to rise tomorrow too.I am amazed at BLT market cap......it seems the excitement is just not reaching those investors with access to the Oz market.I just bought 5000,000 shares last week at 8c (that not a typo, yes, either cents in Oz currency).The HIV treatment seems fine and they HCV approach using Calandos nanoparticle delivery system seems like a winner with results expected in the 2Q.I might buy more today but I was holding back to see if it would drop more to say, 4c, lol.ALNY should jump today.....18-20 my guess. We will see. A new 52 week high anyway I think.
Very large.ARWR could have a nice entry point in the next couple of days.BLT is struggling finacially and in need of cash.As for "70 year old CEO's" ARWR has succession in place.I was an intial investor in CYTR and know Steve Kriegsman from his days as a smallcap bio-tech fund manager.Very smart guy and most likely has his house in order.The only problem with CYTR is chewing through the VC hot money.ALNY is still far and away the class of the RNAi field as far as a pure play.HOWEVER in Colando you have discovered the last piece of the RNAi puzzle-effective delivery.
What do you make of Protiva's lawsuit of Ilex?
Calando delivery technology is what BLT is using it seems for the HCV study. I hope the results are out shortly. There was big volume today in BLT but the price didn't move. Idenix also just announced their HCV candidate has been licensed to Novartis. From what I understand though the data isn't that great. Im not too worried about this affecting BLTs HCV program.ALNY may not have jumped as we all expected yesterday but over the coming weeks and months the rise will continue as steadily as ever I suspect.Do you have a position in ARWR? I am always concerned when the CEO etc is near 70. I don't know why. Its ok for a large company like GE to have an ancient CEO...........its partly what turned me off CytRx when I looked into them a while back......I guess this is one of my "gut instincts".
I bought 500,000 BLT last week, not 5 million (sorry for the typo). Still, it brings my total holding to 2M shares which is about 1.1% of the company (lol, I feel like a big swinging dick).The total cap is now about 15M AUD.Compare that to ALNY and RNAI. WTF?You heard it here first. You want to still get into a cheap RNAi company? Try BLT. Its all I am still buying right now.
How can I buy BLT with a Scottrade account? All I see is the pinksheet stock, not the one listed on the Aust Exchange. Help please.

Curious about the newer model? Check out the 2011 Chevrolet Aveo
By KBB.com Editors
Chevrolet brings its re-designed entry-level, economy subcompact four-door Aveo into dealerships as a slew of other fuel-efficient small sedans race into showrooms to beat the continuing gas crunch. Appealing to its target buyers by matching marketing strategies with webcasts for the digital generation, the affordable Aveo model line is aimed at first-time buyers, young singles, small families and train-station commuters.
If you're looking for budget-conscious, basic transportation that doesn't pretend to be something it isn't, you'll like the Aveo LT. Practical, utilitarian and with no complicated high-tech systems to learn, the little sedan is also a good choice for RVers looking for a haul-behind car. Another plus: The high seating position for driver and passenger.
You may not like the LT if you expect instant response from the automatic transmission. You may also find that child carseats are the best bet for occupying the back seat. With the front seats all the way back, there is very minimal legroom for rear-seat passengers.
Barely two-and-a-half years after its 2004 debut, the Aveo has undergone a complete exterior makeover, while the interior is not only wider, taller and longer, but also fully equipped with a few standard and optional features not found on competitive cars in its price range, such as the Kia Rio, Scion xA, Hyundai Accent, Suzuki Aerio, Honda Fit and Nissan Yaris.
Driving Impressions Driving a car as uncomplicated as the Aveo LT releases you from constantly checking the myriad of messages on lavish instrument panels in pricier cars. With an eye occasionally on...the speedometer, the driver is free to enjoy the surprising capabilities of the Aveo LT's zippy little 103-horsepower engine once you reach your preferred cruising pace. There is no available stability-control system, although anti-lock brakes (ABS) are an option. A slight lean is noticeable on corners taken at speed but the overall driving experience is precise and pleasant, with the car holding the line during straight, hard braking. As to be expected from this category of car, some tire, wind and engine noise is par for the course.
Input Jack
With an eye on youthful buyers who enjoy music 24/7, the Aveo LT has an auxiliary input jack for iPods and other music players and electronic devices. The sound is carried through the car radio and six speakers with exceptional quality.
Fuel Economy
Saving on gas bills is high on everyone's list and Aveo buyers are obviously looking for this benefit. The LT's automatic transmission rewards you with 26 mpg city and 34 mpg highway, depending on road conditions and driving style.
Small touches of metallic grain and satin chrome trim give an upscale look to the interior. Front seats with tilt headrests, storage pockets in doors and seatbacks, a sunglass holder and six-way adjustable driver's seat are features you'd expect in a higher-priced car. The dashboard is a masterpiece of simplicity, clearly showing all the information the driver needs to get from point A to point B. The front passenger seat reclines and, with a trunk capacity of 12.4 cubic feet and rear 60/40-split seats that fold almost flat, there's plenty of room for the longest skis.Exterior
For what it is, a full-featured economy subcompact built by General Motors Daewoo in Korea, the Aveo LT is a competently-designed four-door whose sheetmetal blends smoothly together to present a neat package. The V-shaped hood and strong grille reveal its Chevrolet heritage and emphasize its wide stance. Large "shoulders" over the wheels, oversized front and rear lights and a height of almost five feet gives it the appearance of a larger sedan.
Despite its low-end status, the Aveo LT houses a surprising amount of useful equipment found on more expensive cars, including remote keyless entry with alarm, cruise control, air conditioning with rear vents, side airbags and power heated sideview mirrors. The remote trunk release saves time fumbling with keys and the rear window defogger, tilt steering column and headrests are unexpected extra conveniences. Music lovers will appreciate the LT's standard CD/MP3 player and 180-watt six-speaker system. Power windows and door locks lift this model above many of its manual-handle, similarly-priced competitors.
Chevrolet's Hold-Control four-speed automatic transmission with overdrive uses adaptive-shift technology. It helps to reduce wheel spin and loss of traction by allowing the driver to manually select a different gear so that torque to the wheels is reduced, much as with a true manual transmission. Like audio controls at your fingertips? The LT installs them at thumb level on the steering wheel. Other options include a sunroof, leatherette seats, fog lamps, a rear spoiler, an engine block heater and an anti-theft system.

I own this car - My approximate mileage is 103,000overall rating 8 of 10rating details
Pros: "Easy to handle, can fit it anywhere."
Cons: "Gas mileage disappointing."
Likely to recommend this car? (1-10): 7
"I bought this car with 60k on it and now have 103k. I have not had any major problems and routine care seems to have done the trick. There is no doubt that the interior is cheap and road noise is involved in the driving experience. However when you are paying this amount of money you had to know this is coming. My only complaint is that mine is an automatic but even so the round town MPG is only 22. Highway is another story. Took mine on a short trip and got 32 MPG which is great. If you are looking for basic transportation from A-B and need a little storage and room the Aveo is not a bad choice."

I own this car - My approximate mileage is 82,000overall rating 2 of 10rating details
Pros: "Cheap, good gas mileage."
Cons: "Completely unreliable."
Likely to recommend this car? (1-10): 1
"I've found this car to be comfortable, and surprisingly roomy for how small it is. Additionally, it has great visibility and decent power, along with great gas mileage. Despite all those positives, the car is of very poor quality. It was not made well. Parts are constantly failing and breaking. My wipers, door handle, and gas cover have all broken off during normal use. I easily spend as much keeping this car driveable as I do on car payments. I would not recommend."

I owned and sold this car
Reason: Horrible reliability
Pros: "Good price, attractive styling, good on fuel"
Cons: "Very unreliable and expensive to repair."
Likely to recommend this car? (1-10): 1
"I bought this car new because I liked the styling, it was a simple car I could get with a manual transmission, and the price very reasonable. Car was babied and maintenance was always done on time. This car was in and out of the shop at least a dozen times. Total value of all repairs if most weren't covered by warranty would have easily exceeded what I paid for it. The final year of ownership, after warranty was up, cost more then the full 9 years of ownership of the car it replaced, which was a 30 year old Pontiac. Experience has steered this reviewer away from purchasing another GM vehicle. I do not recommend ownership of this vehicle."

I own this car - My approximate mileage is 54,000overall rating 10 of 10rating details
Pros: "Reliable and economical."
Cons: "Slow acceleration, but not an issue."
Likely to recommend this car? (1-10): 10
"I bought my Aveo new 7 years ago, and I am very happy with it. I have put virtually no money into it, have taken it on several long trips with no problems whatsoever. I have a 5-door hatchback, and I plan to keep it until it won't go another foot. It's comfortable and reliable. I don't understand some of these bad reviews! I have not experienced anything bad with this car. The only thing I will note is that I can't take it through a commercial car wash. If it gets water in the motor, it doesn't run well until it dries out, so I don't do that anymore. It took me 3 or 4 times through a car wash to figure out what was going on! After a day or so it was fine, but to be safe, I hand wash it myself now and no more problems."

"This car has been, in a word, lousy, in just about every way imagineable. Im not going to fault Chevrolet on this, as this is a Daewoo product made in South Korea, and I know many people who have had Korean cars that were just as bad. Slow, noisy, not nearly as efficient as advertised, poorly assembled, cheap interior bits all over, RIDES LIKE A COVERED WAGON ON THE OREGON TRAIL- I think I can make an A-Z list of cons on this heap without too much effort! It at least didnt give me too much in the way of mechanical woes during the first two years I had it, but the last 2 years have been one malady after another, non-stop. If someone wants it, let me know!!"

I own this car - My approximate mileage is 126,000overall rating 1 of 10rating details
Pros: "Gas mileage when car is driveable"
Cons: "Everything else."
Likely to recommend this car? (1-10): 1
"Bought brand new off the lot w/ 36 miles on it. At 3000 miles the fuel pump went out and it took 3 weeks to get the part b/c they had to order it from Korea. This is when I found out we had bought a Daewoo rebranded as a Chevy. Fast forward to 65,000 miles-the coil pack burns out about every 6-8 months. Now my car has been in the shop for SIX weeks b/c parts are almost impossible to find for it. Timing belt and cam sensors broke. A special tool kit is needed to change the timing belt-that took 3 weeks to get b/c it had to come from the UK. Finally found a used cam which had to come from Michigan and according to the Chevy dealer it was the only one they could find in the US. When part arrived the dealer called our mechanic and asked him to hurry up and pick it up b/c they do not want any Aveo parts laying around and jinxing them-yes Chevy dealers KNOW this car is a joke. DO NOT BUY!!!!!!!! Also, interior is extremely cheap-passenger door handle broke at around 50,000 miles with minimal use and the drivers is held together by duct tape b/c it cracked in the middle. Metallic finish rubbed off before that and the seats are the most uncomfortable things since a wooden bench. Only good thing is the car does get good mileage when the coil pack isn't going out then haha you're lucky to get 10 mpg. I would not recommend this car to anyone unless it has been given to you for FREE."

I have a file that has been generated by a server - I have no control over how this file is generated or formatted. I need to check each line begins with a string of set length (in this case 21 numerical chars). If a line doesn't match that condition, I need to join it to the previous line and, after reading and correcting the whole file, save it. I am doing this for a lot of files in a directory.
So far I have:
Dim rgx As New Regex("^[0-9]{21}$")
Dim linesList As New List(Of String)(File.ReadAllLines(finfo.FullName))
If linesList(0).Contains("BlackBerry Messenger") Then
For i As Integer = 0 To linesList.Count
If Not rgx.IsMatch(i.ToString) Then
End If
End If
File.WriteAllLines(finfo.FullName, linesList.ToArray())[code]
There's a for statement before and after that code block to loop over all files in the source directory, which works fine.
Hope this isn't too bad to read :/

Gee thanks Moen
A small part broke inside the handle of my Moen kitchen sink, I called them to ask if they'd send me another since they offer a lifetime warranty. Well since we aren't the original home purchaser they said it won't apply to us. They wanted to sell the part for $13 plus s&h. Home Depot doesn't have it in store, but sells it for $3 online. Hmnnnnn

How did three Danes end up being tortured in Lebanon?
The human cost of the Greek financial crisis
02 Jan 2013 22:03 GMT | Politics, Business & Economy, US & Canada, United States
The US House of Representatives has passed the "fiscal cliff" bill, ending a months-long dispute over the measure that averts tax hikes and spending cuts.
The bill's passage on a 257-167 vote in the House of Representatives on Tuesday evening sealed a hard-won political triumph for the president less than two months after he secured re-election while calling for higher taxes on the wealthy.
The legislation will now head to the White House for President Barack Obama to sign it into law.
The deal raises taxes on the wealthiest Americans and close a crucial chapter of the budget dispute that has consumed Washington for months.
Moments later, Obama strode into the White House briefing room and vowed to avoid a repeat of last year's divisive fight with Congress over an extension of the nation's borrowing authority.
"While I will negotiate over many things, I will not have another debate with this Congress about whether or not they should pay the bills they have already racked up," Obama said in remarks in the White House.
He urged "a little less drama" in coming budget talks about cutting government spending.
The extraordinary late-night House vote took place less than 24 hours after the Senate passed the measure in the pre-dawn hours on New Year's Day.
In addition to neutralising middle class tax increases and spending cuts that technically took effect on Monday at midnight, the legislation raises tax rates on incomes over $400,000 for individuals and $450,000 for couples.
The developments came after the House decided to not alter the bill, which would have complicated congressional passage of the measure.
Senate Democratic aides had said the Democratic-led Senate, would not return to vote on an amended version of the bill.
Balance of cuts
Supporters of the bill in both parties expressed regret that the bill was narrowly drawn, and fell far short of a sweeping plan that combined tax changes and spending cuts to reduce federal deficits.
The bill would prevent an expiration of extended unemployment benefits for an estimated two million jobless, renew tax breaks for businesses and renewable energy purposes, block a 27 percent cut in fees for doctors who treat elderly Medicare patients, stop a $900 pay increase for lawmakers from taking effect in March and head off a threatened spike in milk prices.
Al Jazeera's Tom Ackerman, reporting from Washington, DC, said that while the deal has helped alleviate concerns of an immediate economic nose dive in the US, it by no means solves the greater problem.
"In terms of actually putting a dent into the deficit, the deal did practically nothing, and in fact, taxpayers or wage earners will be seeing an increase in their taxes from the very beginning," said Ackerman.
"People will be looking at what's estimated to be, for the lowest income earners, who don't even pay income tax, about $300 extra in taxes a year, and people making about $75,000 - $100,000 a year, they'll be paying almost $2,000 more a year," said our correspondent.
The bill would also raise the top tax rate on large estates to 40 percent, from 35 percent, and taxes on capital gains and dividends over $400,000 for individuals and $450,000 for couples would be taxed at 20 percent, up from 15 percent.
It would stop $24 billion in spending cuts set to take effect over the next two months, although only about half of that total would be offset with spending reductions elsewhere in the budget.
The agreement includes a balance of spending cuts and revenue increases to pay for the delay in the automatic spending cuts that would go into effect without a deal.
For all the struggle involved in the legislation, even its passage would merely clear the way for another round of controversy about the nation's borrowing authority almost as soon as the new Congress convenes.
Source: Al Jazeera and agencies
Unless US politicians can quickly reach a deal, automatic spending cuts and higher taxes could slow economic recovery.

Originally written on The Cardinal Connect | Last updated 11/7/12
Rick Pitino had his weekly radio show last night at Buffalo Wild Wings in East Louisville. With there not being a press conference this week, here is a brief rundown on some of the things Coach Pitino discussed on the show. –Chane Behanan will play in Louisville's season opener against Manhattan on Sunday. Pitino says Montrezl Harrell will start, but Behanan will play. He also said that Behanan is struggling with turning the ball over in practice. –Pitino said the key weakness for the entire team at this point is turnovers. He said in order for the Cards to reach their full potential this season, they'll have to cut down their turnovers. –As of right now, Pitino said Peyton Siva is easly the MVP of the team. However, he said by the end of the year it could be Dieng, Russ, Ware, or Hancock. –Pitino thinks the 2008-09 Louisville team was more talented, but he said this year's group could be a better overall basketball team. –When Duke head coach Mike Krzyzewski was brought up, Pitino ...

Preparing graphic materials for all Android screen sizes is a real painstaking work.
So I made a help table including all current popular screen resolutions, basing on my expirience at slicing design elements for Android devices.
I'm not telling that this table is the only right solution for scaling of Android design mockups. There are plenty of Android screen sizes. I've collected the most comfort screen resolutions for scaling for each group of Android devices, in my opinion.
To see complete table, please, click link below.
Feel free to download it or print it. Hope it'll help you too.

2006 Ford Escape Limited 4dr SUV AWD (3.0L 6cyl 4A)
Great styling, nice comfort and hadles well especially in snow. The vechile is has been inexpensive to maintain.
Monochromic interior styling. The interior is nice layed out. The rear parking sensors are awesome for parallel parking. For its size it has tons of space for passanger and cargo.
Would be nice if vechile had dual climate control and improve fuel economy while not giving up preformance.
2006 Ford Escape XLT 4dr SUV (3.0L 6cyl 4A)
The Escape is a fun, nimble little SUV which has great interior capacity and the 3.0L V6 has great power. The stock tires, however, are slippery and noisy. I can't wait until they wear out so that I can replace them.
Handling, good turn radius, seats, 6CD changer premium stereo
Tires. Get something that can grip the road.
I absolutly love my 2006 Escape. It handles better than any vehicle that I have ever driven before. The gas mileage is outstanding. Has lots of room inside. I highly recomend this SUV for anyone.
Automatic rearview mirror dimmer is amazing.
2006 Ford Escape XLT 4dr SUV AWD (3.0L 6cyl 4A)
Basically, it is a fine SUV except when the speed reaches 60 MPH. Then an intermittent vibration starts. By 80 MPH it feels like the rear tires are totally out of balance...then it quits...then it starts again. Have been unable to find the reason even after all tires were replaced and rebalanced.
Leg room.
2006 Ford Escape XLT 4dr SUV (2.3L 4cyl 4A)
I traded in my 01 Civic for an 06 Escape and I could not be happier. This is the first car that I have bought that I was completely in love with. I love the style of the inside and outside and I love the handling. I swear mine handles like a sedan, especially when taking turns. I'm single so I don't need a lot of room, but I can fit so much in my car. In my Honda, I couldn't even fit my niece's stroller in my truck. With my Escape, I can fit my niece's stroller, diaper bag, walker and high chair with room to spare, and of course my niece. I can also fit 4 passenger's comfortably, which I can't say my Honda did. I thought the gas mileage would be an issue but it's not, great on mileage.
I bought my Escape used with 33k miles. I chose the premium care warranty, which I suggest you do if you buy used. It covers more than you think; for example, it will cover a rental which the lower warranty won't.
None, I am completely satisfied.

NFL News and Notes For July 29th
- Updated: July 29, 2011
For the last fourth months there was only one topic to talk about, but the NFL has suddenly exploded with news ever since the league owners and the Players Association finally came to terms on a new 10-year CBA (collective bargaining agreement) earlier this week. With the new CBA in place, the league reopened for business on Tuesday and teams started reporting to training as early as yesterday. By the end of the week, all 32 teams will begin preparation for the upcoming preseason and more importantly the start of the regular season in early September.
Most of the news over the past few days has revolved around free agent signing, trades, and big-named players getting their walking papers from their current teams. Some of the biggest deals have involved the movement of a couple of veteran quarterbacks in search of a new home. Longtime Seattle veteran Matt Hasselbeck has reportedly agreed to terms with Tennessee and Washington traded Donovan McNabb to Minnesota. It remains to be seen how much these two can help their new teams, but at the very least, they will probably provide a few ticks downward on each team's future odds to win the division, conference, or Super Bowl along with an extra win or two on their season win-total projections.
The two other quarterback deals that are currently in the works would place Philadelphia back-up Kevin Kolb in Arizona and Denver's Kyle Orton in Miami. If these deals go through, it could have an impact on the current odds for both teams, but the effect would be minimal given that both have an array of other issues that need to be addressed as well.
While there has been a fair amount of deals already, there are still a number of veteran players whose future remains up for grabs. The'Nnamdi Asomugh sweepstakes' continues with the New York Jets the apparent front-runner. His arrival in the Big Apple along with the fact that WR Santonio Holmes is staying put could certainly shift the balance of power towards the Jets in the AFC East. It remains to be seen how the betting public will react to the reported trade of DT Albert Haynesworth from the Redskins to New England, but it is obvious that both teams are using this once in-a-lifetime opportunity to gain the edge in what should be a heated battle for the division title this season.
The bottom line to this whole feeding frenzy is that we are going to have to wait out the entire process to determine the winners and the losers, just as we do when it comes to the NFL draft. The odds makers will be tasked with the same evaluations to determine what adjustments, if any, need to be made to a team's future odds. For the most part, they will be content to simply sit back and let the betting public dictate the movement of the lines, and then adjust accordingly. Bodog has already reduced limits on its future odds for the Super Bowl and has taken its odds for the NFC and AFC title temporarily off the board.
Actual player values tend to get somewhat inflated due to public perception, which in-turn leads to a large influx of money shifting towards a team just because it picked-up an aging veteran quarterback or an over-priced defensive lineman. These player moves are designed to make a team better, but more times than not, it fails to work out that way. It is best to avoid the temptation to be swayed by a single move here or there. Take the wait-and-see approach, and then handicap a team on its complete roster to get a true picture of its chances this season.
