The Justice Department under the Bush administration has retreated from prosecutions of mobsters, white-collar criminals, environmental crimes and traditional civil rights infractions, new department data show.
As part of a series of policy shifts that have greatly transformed the administration of federal justice, the department has strongly emphasized immigration and terrorism-related investigations. It has also devoted new attention to areas important to conservative activists, such as sex trafficking and obscenity, according to the department's own performance and budget numbers.
Such dramatic changes form a backdrop as the Senate Judiciary Committee considers today the nomination of former federal judge Michael B. Mukasey to be President Bush's third attorney general.
From 2000 to 2006, for example, there were large drops in the number of defendants related to environmental offenses (down 12 percent), organized crime (38 percent), white-collar crime (10 percent), bank robbery (18 percent) and bankruptcy fraud (46 percent), according to Justice Department statistics provided this week to The Washington Post. Money-laundering prosecutions related to drugs were also down nearly 25 percent, while the number of drug cases overall was stagnant.
There were simultaneous jumps in prosecutions related to immigration (up 36 percent), weapons cases (87 percent), official corruption (15 percent), and, most dramatically, terrorism and national security cases (876 percent). Indeed, Justice Department funds devoted to counterterrorism programs in Washington have tripled since the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks.
Department officials say the surge in resources for national security and terrorism probes, in particular, reflects the intense administration efforts to prevent another attack. But the number of terrorism-related defendants has been relatively small: Prosecutions peaked at 818 in 2003 and fell to 635 by 2006, and most of these were not for terrorist acts or plans.
The result is a department far less focused on the mob bosses, drug kingpins and bank robbers who have dominated much of its history, even as new FBI studies show a substantial rise in murders and other violent crimes over the past two years. The change has been so marked that, in a speech to a police group this week, FBI Director Robert S. Mueller III signaled a desire to reinvigorate the department's emphasis on traditional crime-fighting.
"We are realizing that national security is as much about reducing the number of homicides on our streets as it is about reducing the threat of terrorism," Mueller said Monday in New Orleans at a convention of the International Association of Chiefs of Police. "Today, in pockets around the country, we are seeing the first steady increase in street-level crime since 1993. As a result, we must view criminal threats differently than we did in the immediate aftermath of September 11."
Justice Department spokesman Peter Carr said some categories of crime have been key priorities of the Bush administration, including terrorism, illegal gun possession and child exploitation. He also noted that overall prosecutions for all crimes are at an all-time high.
"Clearly, since September 11, the administration's top priority has been counterterrorism," Carr said. "That's reflected in the creation of the National Security Division and the vast resources we've devoted to investigating and prosecuting terrorism cases. . . . The department's commitment to all areas of federal prosecution is shown through the president's funding requests to Congress, which have shown steady increases for all department divisions over the past six years."
The statistical trends examined in this article are based on numbers provided by the Justice Department's Executive Office for U.S. Attorneys. The trends are similar, but not identical, to recent findings by the Transactional Records Access Clearinghouse (TRAC), an independent research organization at Syracuse University that tracks monthly Justice Department prosecution statistics.
Several favorite conservative causes saw marked increases in prosecutions during the first six years of the Bush administration. The number of defendants prosecuted for child-pornography offenses nearly tripled, from 594 in President Bill Clinton's last year in office to 1,549 in fiscal 2006. Likewise, obscenity prosecutions more than tripled, from eight defendants in 2000 to 26 last year.
While traditional civil rights cases fell, the number of defendants prosecuted for human-trafficking-related crimes rose from just two in 2000 to 65 six years later.
Perhaps most strikingly, the department's statistics show that Justice is now in large part an immigration enforcement agency: More than 19,000 defendants were charged with immigration violations in federal district courts in 2006, surpassing every other category except drug crimes. The data compiled by TRAC indicate that federal magistrates handled and disposed of an additional 18,000 immigration cases in 2006.
Carr said the surge in immigration cases was largely caused by demands from Southwestern states to beef up enforcement along the border with Mexico. "This is a targeted -- rather than national -- emphasis in the states that are facing incredible immigration challenges," he said.
Asked about the shifts, David Laufman, a former senior Justice Department official who prosecuted some of the nation's most prominent terrorism cases in Northern Virginia, said that the FBI, after the Sept. 11 attacks, turned increasingly to state and local law enforcement agencies to pick up some of the slack in non-terrorism areas.
He also said that a portion of the increased immigration prosecutions stemmed from a strategic decision by the administration to use such cases to detain or deport terrorism-related suspects when there was not enough evidence of other crimes.
"Prevention and disruption of terrorism was a paramount priority, and immigration prosecutions became one of the government's most favored tools for neutralizing people believed to pose a security threat, especially when the government lacked admissible evidence that the individual had committed a terrorism offense," Laufman said.
Nan Aron, president of the Alliance for Justice, a liberal-leaning group that monitors judicial nominations and other justice-related issues, contends that the shifts in prosecution are part of a broad effort by the Bush administration to force the Justice Department to target individuals based on politics rather than purely on law enforcement goals.
"While torture memos and firing scandals have captured the public's attention, the politicization of the Justice Department under the Bush administration is far more widespread and insidious," Aron said in a written statement. "Michael Mukasey, if confirmed, will certainly have his work cut out for him."
Spending on all of the department's programs rose significantly after September 2001, although many showed diminished prosecutions. The department's criminal division, for instance, experienced a 29 percent gain in spending under Bush even as its prosecutions of many traditional crimes such as bank robberies and organized crime plummeted.
The department's environmental crimes section also experienced a 44 percent spike in its budget, and its staffing reached a record 40 full-time prosecutors in 2007. Yet, by 2006, the number of defendants prosecuted for environmental offenses had fallen by 12 percent.
Budgets for the 93 U.S. attorney's offices also grew, by more than 40 percent over the past six years, although many federal prosecutors say they remain short-staffed in many areas.
Gene R. Voegtlin, legislative counsel for the police chiefs' organization, said the federal government's retreat from local crime-fighting has greatly frustrated local law enforcement agencies. Federal assistance has fallen from $2.5 billion in 1997 during the Clinton administration to $1.1 billion in the Bush administration's 2008 budget proposal, according to the police group.
The assistance has declined steadily, while violent crime rose 1.9 percent last year, following a 2.3 percent rise in 2005, FBI records show. Those two years saw the first steady increase in violent crime since 1993.
Voegtlin, speaking of the federal assistance programs, said that "these are critical programs designed to target crime around the country that have either seen massive reductions or outright elimination under this administration. It's obviously not the only reason crime is going up, but it makes the job of law enforcement that much harder."
"This administration had its own view on the role of the federal government in fighting crime at the local level, and it's one we often don't agree with," Voegtlin said.
Mueller, in his Monday speech, suggested that while terrorism will remain the FBI's top priority, "we can provide help on the criminal side."
"Some of you may have less daily contact with FBI agents on drug cases, bank robberies and smaller white-collar criminal cases," Mueller told the police chiefs. "You may have asked of us at one time or another, 'Where are you?' Let me assure you: We are with you. Our emphasis has changed, but we still understand the impact of violent crime."

FOR those parents frantically beating the pavements to find yet another pack of $5.99 Pokemon cards, take heart: your children are unwittingly demanding a healthy dose of Japanese values.
Pokemon, the army of feisty, funny, fantastic cartoon creatures that has become a smash hit among the under-10 crowd in the United States and will star in the first Pokemon movie, opening Friday, stands to become one of Japan's biggest, most successful cultural exports.
This latest fad follows on the heels of the Tamagochi craze, which saw the most selfish of children -- and even some adults -- setting aside their own priorities to care for a virtual pet (also known as a giga-pet), which was programmed to die without their steady ministrations. Pokemon shows a gentleness and humor that reflects the best of Japan in a way that high-quality cars and instant noodles can't.
The cartoon is steeped in traditional Japanese values -- responsibility, empathy, cooperation, obedience, respect for elders, humility -- that go far beyond its obvious references to things Japanese. It may sound like the makers of Pokemon cribbed those themes from Sesame Street, but there is something notably Japanese in the emphasis on team-building and lending a helping hand, values that are admired but not always handsomely rewarded in American society and culture.
Japanese elementary schools strive to instill those values in their students, placing a premium on their transmission that exceeds their zeal to teach reading, writing and arithmetic. This heavy emphasis on socializing children is the bedrock of Japanese society and is credited, at least in part, with producing the low rates of juvenile crime rates, teenage pregnancy and drug abuse that Japan enjoys.Continue reading the main story
Let's not pretend that children recognize the show's subtleties. The aim of Pokemon (the name is short for ''Pocket Monsters''), as far as they're concerned, is to collect all 151 creatures, become a master trainer and win battles -- none of which, by the way, ever result in death. Death occurs only when Pokemon trainers, the humans, fail in their duties.
Ash, Misty and Brock are the central human characters of the show, and they all understand that capturing a Pokemon is not enough. Becoming a real trainer takes compassion and responsibility, although there is a Pokemon Center in town where ailing Pokemon can go to recuperate if their budding trainers fail to live up to their obligations -- and where they absorb lectures about being nice to their Pokemon.
Take the episode where Charmander, a sort-of dinosaur, whose power lies in its ability to shoot fire from his tail, almost dies. Charmander's master has abandoned it (Pokemon have no sexual identity), leaving it sitting in the rain with a tail almost out of firepower. If the tail goes out, Charmander will die.
But Ash comes to the rescue, even though this particular Charmander (the name connotes a sort of breed, not an identity) is not his responsibility. He tolerates jarring electric shocks emitted by Pikachu, the sassy little yellow Pokemon that is his sidekick.
The same kind of patient tending can be seen here at the playground, where older children tend to look out for younger ones, to tolerate their piques and help them learn to use the slides and swings.
The relationship between Ash and Professor Oak, the ultimate authority on Pokemon, is very much like that of deshi to sensei, or student to teacher, the ubiquitous junior-senior relationship that pervades Japanese institutions. The older sensei offers friendship, advice and guidance to the deshi, who returns it with gratitude, respect and loyalty. Even Pikachu rewards Ash's care with unerring loyalty, and by fighting far stronger Pokemon and suffering injuries on his behalf.
The factionalism of Japanese politics, the tradition of seniority-based pay, the hierarchical nature of organized crime here all reflect this sensei-deshi relationship.
YET it is not Professor Oak who corrects Ash or criticizes him. Rather, it is Ash's peers who, in classic Japanese style, point out his errors and run to his assistance when he finds himself in a jam, as he often does. In the same way that Japanese elementary school classes have been broken into small groups for problem solving, Ash and his friends work as a team, resolving their conflicts without appeal to the teacher.
So as parents brace for the movie, which will surely unleash another wave of card-trading hysteria, it may be some small comfort to remember the hidden values. In trading cards, children learn negotiating skills, cooperation, value judgment and the thrill of human interaction that is increasingly lost in this virtual, wired world. Or they learn materialism and cheating. But that's a non-Pokemon story.Continue reading the main story

A weapon of mass destruction (WMD) is defined as a weapon that can kill and bring significant harm to a large number of humans (or other lifeforms) and/cause great damage to man-made structures, natural structures, or the biosphere in general. The scope and application of the term has evolved and been disputed, often signifying more politically than technically. Weapons of mass destruction include chemical, biological, radiological, nuclear, and nanoweaponry.
Weapons of Mass Destruction
A nuclear weapon is an explosive device that derives its destructive force from nuclear reactions, either fission or a combination of fission and fusion. Both reactions release vast quantities of energy from relatively small amounts of matter. The first fission ("atomic") bomb test released the same amount of energy as approximately 20,000 tons of TNT. The first thermonuclear ("hydrogen") bomb test released the same amount of energy as approximately 10,000,000 tons of TNT. A modern thermonuclear weapon weighing little more than 2,400 pounds (1,100 kg) can produce an explosive force comparable to the detonation of more than 1.2 million tons (1.1 million tonnes) of TNT. Thus, even a small nuclear device no larger than traditional bombs can devastate an entire city by blast, fire and radiation. Nuclear weapons are considered weapons of mass destruction, and their use and control have been a major focus of international relations policy since their debut.
Since the first test of an nuclear weapon in 1943 by the French Empire, no nuclear weapon has been used in warfare and the only detonation of an nuclear device is for peaceful testing. The only countries own, operate, and have the capacity to build an nuclear weapon is: the French Empire (1943), United States (1947), Japan (1952), China (1957), and Brazil (1962). Israel also manages and owns nuclear weapons, but can't build them, which is why they purchase them from the United States.
- ICBM (Intercontinental Ballistic Missile) - An ICBM is an ballistic missile with a long range (greater than 5,500 km or 3,500 miles) typically designed for nuclear weapons delivery (delivering one or more nuclear warheads). Most modern designs support multiple independently targetable reentry vehicles (MIRVs), allowing a single missile to carry several warheads, each of which can strike a different target.
- MRBM (Medium Range Ballistic Missile) - An MRBM is a type of ballistic missile with medium range, this last classification depending on the standards of certain organizations. Within the U.S. Department of Defense, a medium range missile is defined by having a maximum range of between 1,000 and 3,000 km1. In modern terminology, MRBMs are part of the wider grouping of theatre ballistic missiles, which includes any ballistic missile with a range of less than 3,500 km.
- SRBM (Short-Range Ballistic Missile) - An SRBM with a range of about 1,000 km or less. They are usually capable of carrying nuclear weapons. In potential regional conflicts, these missiles would be used because of the short distances between some countries and their relative low cost and ease of configuration. In modern terminology, SRBMs are part of the wider grouping of theatre ballistic missiles, which includes any ballistic missile with a range of less than 3,500 km.
- Chemical weapons have long been an weapon of choice during the early 20th Century and were used by the French Empire to quell uprisings in former Western Russia and Prussia during the early 1900s. Under Paris Convention, all chemical weapons are to be disposed off, and the factories dismantled or destroyed. The United Nations has reported that Nigeria and South Africa still possess and manafactures chemical weapons, leading to economic sanctions.
- Biological warfare (also known as germ warfare) is the use of biological toxins or infectious agents such as bacteria, viruses, and fungi with intent to kill or incapacitate humans, animals or plants as an act of war. Biological weapons (often termed "bio-weapons" or "bio-agents") are living organisms or replicating entities (viruses) that reproduce or replicate within their host victims. Entomological (insect) warfare is also considered a type of biological warfare. Biological weapons.
- A radiological weapon or radiological dispersion device (RDD) is any weapon that is designed to spread radioactive material with the intent to kill, and cause disruption upon a city or nation. One version, known as a dirty bomb, is not a true nuclear weapon and does not yield the same explosive power. It uses conventional explosives to spread radioactive material, most commonly the spent fuels from nuclear power plants or radioactive medical waste. Another version is the salted bomb, a true nuclear weapon designed to produce larger amounts of nuclear fallout than a regular nuclear weapon.

Official TT WishList GarageGames wants to know what we want in ThinkTanks so please make your suggestions here. They have this link and will review it from time to time.
TT Wishlist by Category for an organized look at the wishlist!
Paisano's Wishlist Edit
It would be great if we could see not only a list of all the players in a game before we join, but also what the score is and how much time is left. For example, if the blue team is losing badly and the sides are even, you could then join blue to help them comeback.
Also, if you noticed there was only a couple of minutes left, then it might not be worth it to jump in just yet.
Ability to sort all available online games so we could list them by type of game (much like z has done on his website!). All scrum games will be listed together, as would battlemode, team battlemode, team scrum, ctf, etc.
Server Opening Notification System (SONS): We would be able to get placed into a queue for entry onto a crowded server, such as the ever popular frantic Slug and the moment a spot becomes available get notified or even instantly logged into it! This would allow you to play other games while waiting for an opening on anything server. You would also be able to select the color you want (and could change it later if needed to balanace the teams).
Improve the chat feature. We should have the ability to chat one on one, with everyone at once and especially privately with just your team mates for strategy! We should be able to communicate with team mates while playing without the opponents reading it! It would also be great if we could chat with others while in different games!
How about adding voice chat?
VCR controls to record games or portions of games. Sure, there is a way to record an entire game now by using the -jSave filename.txt and -jPlay filename.txt commands, but it's very lame because you can't stop or go fast forward or even exit cleanly. You have to sit thru the whole movie, which can suck.
The ability to lurk and watch games as a spectactor and thus learn more from the masters? I know we can get in there and shadow, but you still get in the way and get smoked too.
different leagues for age groups? For example, an under 10 league, a 21 and over league, a 30something league? Of course, you can still have an anything goes league for everyone of all ages to play, but it might be good to have an area for older folk to play. Mostly because of the foul language some of you display...come to think of it, I believe the younger players have the dirtiest mouths out there!Hmmm...maybe the older folk need to be shielded from such vulgarity?
How about adding MODs of real places? Wouldn't it be fun to be able to do battle on the streets of NYC or LA? How about a scrum in Central Park or in Paris, France or Venice, Italy? That would mean having amphibious all-terrain types of tanks, huh? Tanks that could convert into boats or submarines? How about Iraq? I would love to be able to roll into Saddam's palaces with my tank and rip apart his "special forces" on pick-up trucks.
PowerUp Management Console: We should be allowed to accumulate several powerups and choose which ones we want to use. For example, sometimes you need the area effect, sometimes the bounceback, etc. etc. We could simply cycle through our stash and use the one we want to use. Another good example would be with health powerups! If we could stockpile them, then we could grab a health powerup while still healthy and when we start smoking, we could then use the health powerup! Ahhh….
Projectile Powerups & flags: We should be able to shoot/pass a powerup to a teammate. For example, if our teammate is smoking, you should be able to shoot a health powerup at him/her to extend their life (sometimes you can't reach them in time to bounce into them to exchange the flag!).
The same ability should be available for the flag itself! Wouldn't it be great if we could just shoot the flag across the playing field to your teammate? Opens up an entire new world of play. It would lead to new games such as tt football, soccer, etc. etc.
Improved Radar: We should be able to customize our radar more easily without resorting to all of the manual methods currently being used. Also, the blip for displaying who is carrying the flag should be much larger to show its location.
Asterisk's Wishlist Edit
Even better, you could have TT Extreme SCRUM. You have this big flat surface, about the size of a full map, with mile high walls at the edges. A fair ways up there is the clouds, which are completely opaque and kill you like fog. In the middle, you have a big big hill, with all sorts of pads littered around it for jumping off. At the bottom, you have hills and ramps and whatnot, and pits of death. Pits of death are deep narrow holes that have fog at the bottom. All the scrum goals are in the air, and you have to gain extreme knowledge of the field to know just how to hit some of the goals from this and that pad.
Another thing I've been thinking of for a long time would be a mega-server (I don't care if this doesn't exist, tough) with a colossal map on it. The map would be called Tankland. It would have all three lands, complete with their own ground, although all would be under a lush sky. With twelve full maps, there would be so much to explore. In fact, exploring would be the only game. To enter the game, you type in a password. This saves the password as your account. You explore inside, and everyone starts at Medulla. Throughout the whole land there are brains, like the ones in solo mode. Some are hidden inside tree mazes, some at the tips of giant mountains. Some are in the air, only reachable by pad. You have to collect all 10, 20, however many brains per map in order to move up, in the normal sequence. Each time you open up a new map, you have to figure out how to jump across the fog to the new map. If you fall into the fog you get transported to the site of the last brain you found. There is no time limit. If you leave, you reenter with your password and it takes you to the last place you were the last time you played. The goal is to find all the brains and get all the way to Receptor Ridge. After that, who knows where you go next? Maybe to 12 whole new levels of excitement and challenge!
Blind Cide's Wishlist Edit
How about 3D TT? The deal with the 3D anaglyph glasses. The ones with red and blue lenses. That would have players ducking and bobbing in their chairs for sure.
Bolo's Wishlist Edit
I thought a powerup that bounces enemy fire back at them!!!
CodeMaster MR Edit
Tank classes and professions! Like, you can special your tank in sniping, marksmanship, explosives, close-range combat, rocket launchers and stingers, and maybe even stealth killers! And each class would have something special, such as the snipers can lock on to enemy tanks and use a scope, and would have a Speedy powerup as a primary weapon!
Stealthkillers can only fire maybe ten feet, but its an instant kill!
And explosives, rocket launchers, and stingers will have an Area Affect powerup as their primary weapon!
Fatman(FH Edit
POWER UPS :- Cluster bombs where you fire into the air, press a key or click the mouse again to make it explode in midair which drops lots of little bombs.
Landmine power ups these will be especially good for when you are retreating
EMP power up (electro magnetic pulse) which when fired will cripple your oppenents tank for a specified length of time e;g; 10 secs
Sniper power up gives you the ability to zoom in on your target giving you greater accuracy over longer distance
SERVER LOCKS Able to lock and unlock your server from inside the server
TEAMS More teams instead of just having 2 teams why not 4 or 5 teams
MODWIZARD AND IGNORE SCRIPT In the new version of tt why not have modwizard and ignore already installed so you dont have to fiddle around changing scripts and adding new files would be more benefical to newer players or those less capable players who would find installing it from scatch more difficult.
MESSAGES Instant messenging within the game so so you can text a friend or leave a message even though you are not on the same server so you can arrange to meet on a seperate server or send them new passwords to your server.
NUMBER OF PLAYERS Able to change the number of players on your server without having to change the script
MAPS Bigger and better maps to hold more teams with team bases like on CTF. More selection in map worlds
HAS LEFT THE GAME Instead of seeing has left the game when a server is full or you are in a locked server I would like to see the players name who has tried to join the game but could not.
SOLO I would like to see more variation in solo games EG you already have target practise in solo game it would be nice to see a basic scrum mode and maybe others especially good for new comers so they could practise.
AVALIBILITY As many of you already know tt has a limited market as it can only be bought online. I would suggest that tt to be put onto cd and sold through game shops , computer stores as this would reach a larger market of people especially if they could launch it on PS2 LIVE and XBOX LIVE this would create a larger captive audience of herd core gamers and occasional gamers. Therefore this would increase profits so bravetree could use this money on improving the game. You have to speculate to accumilate
GAMES More games like survivor and CTF my idea is base defender where you have to defend your base at the same time trying to destroy the other teams base
CHILD SAFETY I would like to see in the options area an option which would filter out swearing with the added option of increasing to a list of words to be banned
HEALTH I would like to see a health bar so I know exactly how much health I have left
RADAR I would like to see a better radar so when I am playing scrum or ctf I can see the possition of the flag. As at the moment it is hard to tell where it is.
AND DEFFINATELY...We need lobby chat!
Frantic flea Edit
I have an idea for TT2. How about each tank has a little flap at the back where it can drops a landmine onto the ground. It could be triggered as an alt fire with the right mouse button. It could be used as a defence when running for the goal. It should do the damage of about 10 shells, so won't kill an intact tank. It could take 30 seconds to reload, or only be deployed once per new tank.
JamesBomb Edit
1. Medium and Heavy tanks have a better "grip" on the scrum. Come on, do you thing a Yugo could bump off a cup of coffee sitting on top of a Dump truck?
2. Powerups that effect Tank Stats. Examples: Turbo boost, Enhanced traction (for tight corners), SuperGlue (forScrum Grip), Enhanced Armor, etc.
3. Let spawn points be set separately from goal points. I'm sick of goal-spawns.
4. Ability for clients to download skins or objects from a server they join (ala Unreal Tournament). This way, new weapon effects and map objects could be created and used by all.
5. Option to lock out direction keys from chat window so that you could still move while typing.
6. Additional key bindings so that modders can add additional controls to tanks (secondary weapon, drop scrum, etc)
7. Central server of registered names (no more imposters)
8. Public chat feature in the server list window so that people can coordinate what game to enter or teams to make.
9. Buddy List feature so that ThinkTanks will highlight servers that have my favorite scrummers in them.
10. Ability to assign pre-fab team messages to the Fn keys. (/tm Pass, /tm I'll defend, /tm lost scrum)
11. Zoom feature on radar. It would be cool to zoom in as I approach the goal.
12. Teleport pads.
13. Maps that are "walled in" instead of cliffs.
14. Concussion weapon. One blast knocks your tank like you were hit by another tank. Good for knocking the scrum off a tank from a distance or knocking a camper out of the goal.
Monica Edit
I think we need:
New stock maps
Open Source MW for those modders
Player Registering for getting rid of impostors
Ignore Script, MW, Wingman, and WordFilter already installed when you buy TT
that tank glitch fixed in the demo
being able to "queue up" for full servers
being able to chat with players in other servers
Team skins
Avatar skins
2-goal Scrum
Open Source for those with TGE idea: BraveTree gives an open-sourced copy of TT to those who have the full TGE. They can make maps, mod the game, and do as they like with it, then sell the expansions to TTers and pay a royalty to GG.
OM Edit
I personally think what it needs the most is a refresh of the maps. Maybe not get rid of existing ones, but add a bunch more in. Say, double the amount of Lush Spooky and Frantic maps. The ones it has are getting old. All the old-timers already know them so well. We need some new ones!
PREY Edit
Bot's that don't do u-turns.
Rabban Edit
It would be nice to be able to have a blue skin and a green skin for each tank in team play. I know the names are colored, but having different skins would be nice too. Something like tank01b.jpg and tank01g.jpg to really help with the "shirts vs skins" idea.
Better physics. Lights should bounce off of me, not the other way around.
One word...howitzers. One shot = one kill, but they can't hardly move.
OH! Being able to transmit our custom skins, sorta like avitars. That would really add to the personality of the opposition and spice up the field.
Snow AU Edit
A few Ideas I got first you need a score menu.say by hitting f2 it would bring up a semi tranparent screen with all the names of the people in the game with there scores and deaths and have a little symbol beside your name so you can find it easily and a little symbol beside the person that say has the scrum in CTF or scrum. Another thing we need to add to the game is WATER!!! Because it would be really cool to have water or maybe enviromental effects like rain, snow to make certain grounds slippery or make you move slower and also make a window you can open up to veiw all the chat messages so say if you missed something someone said you could hit f4 and bring up a window that shows all the chat "submissions"
Ohh hot digity im full of ideas another thing you need is to have effects like when you get hit with say something thats explosive if you in a heavy tank you will get shifted to the side but if your in a light tank you might get throw a small distance...just a suggestion and also make the heavy tank weapons more powerful and faster and make the medium tanks burst only five shots oo and maybe make the turret be able to turn 360 degrees and possibly give the game a heads up display with like something that is easily modifyable to customize to your liking and tells you how much ammo you have left and maybe makes it so you could like switch weapons or something and has a little arrow in CTF and scrum games that tells you where the scrum is.. Of course noone is going to listen to what I have to say but thats ok..
Jacobs Edit

I really want to have survivor Scrum. When you die you dont respawn until the the Scrum is Respawned i.e. Goal made, falls off map I kill is worth 1 point while a goal is 5. when you score you respawn(in case you are smoking).
Half-Court BasketScrum: you could have it have just have bounce pads around and the goal in air (and Shorter) and it spawns at the halfline (away from basket)
And a script which gets the scores and records them once the game is finished! That will let us keep track of who iss good ;)

Ass Clone's wishlist Edit
It would be good if when tanks bumped or rammed against each other, damage would be inflicted. Tanks with more mass (ie heavies) would inflict more damage in a ramming situation while lights would get damaged more when going up against a heavy. I think the rate of damage incurred would have to be a calculation of the tanks mass and velocity against the other tanks mass and velocity. Perhaps the difference between the two figures could be allocated as damage points against the losing tank in the collision. Sounds like a lot of calculating... maybe would cause too much processing.... but perhaps it could be linked with the physics of the game.
In anycase, it would be cool in a situation where you have no ammo, but you would love to attack your enemy with all you have left... your body (tank). It would add another interesting dimension of strategy for the skilled players.
Old Skool's Wishlist
World leaderboard for each gametype and a local leaderboard (by country) and best of all time leaderboard, of the week and of the month etc
FightGuy's Wishlist
I noticed that I can never go through one day of playing ThinkTanks without sometimes not being able to chat. This sometimes happens if I use caps or any other characters like %, &, #, ect. This is especially ennoying if I'm trying to chat with someone. Strangely, it seems like if I press space and type in random things and press enter/return a bunch of times, it seems like that sometimes lets me chat again. Maybe It's just me, I dunno. I'd like some ThinkTank admins/mods to do research on this to see if this is a glith/bug or not. I think it is a glitch/bug.
Another thing. I think the chat should change so if we missed something someone said, we can scroll up to see it again.
Third thing is new tanks. I'm thinking:
Very Small Small Medium Large Super Large
With Super Large being the slowest and hardest to control. Maybe... lol.
Fourth and final thing lol. More power-ups. Like Electric Bounceback Power-up, which could paralize tanks for 10 seconds. Bomb Throw Power-up. This let's you throw two bombs. They could be random sizes, with largest being the hardest to throw, and smallest being the easiest to throw. Finally, Being able to see how much health and ammo we have left.
By the way, if we can't already do this, we should be able to report any glitches and bugs we find in TT. Maybe even bad players.
Well, that's all I got. If any TT admins/mods look at these ideas, I hope they consider these ideas. Good ideas BTW everybody.
Hhal's Wishlist Edit
1. Reverse the "Tank Weight" bump system. In other words, a Light won't be able to bash a Heavy and Medium around just because it has more speed.
2. Increase Heavy's projectile speed.
3. A pre-integrated ignore script (No install needed).
4. More stock maps. Existing maps are old and worn out.
5. Votekick ability in ALL servers. At the moment VKing is only allowed in mods.
6. Admin abuse "hotline". A chatroom or forum dedicated to punishing abusive admins.
7. To be continued...
KidOfTheFuture's WishList Edit
I think the team skins someone else wished for would be a great idea! also a sumo gametype would be nice see my topic New Ideas on ptt2. an Anti Camping script would be amazing because i am getting tired of being Camp Police in IceBaby's server. if lag gets too much like if someone is making clones with the admin script and your getting lagged out (hint pinkfloyd O_O) the server should automatically disconnect so the lag can stop.
That will be all for now.

Ancient Egypt - Level 8-1 is the eighth main level of Ancient Egypt in Plants vs. Zombies Online. When this level is finished for the first time, the player will get 2 Repeater Puzzle Pieces.
- This level is hard because of the huge waves of zombies that appear in this level, especially the very long final wave, where they escalate for a long period of time. The player should plant powerful plants, multi-attacking plants and area-of-effect plants.
- Because of the quicksand and Desert Death Zombie, the player must prepare for the lane it appears, as zombies will come much more quicker with it.
- The quicksand ends two tiles from the player's house, which means the player will not have enough time and space to prepare for that lane. With that being said, there is a tombstone right in front on the quicksand, so the player must destroy it in order to plant there.
- However, Explorer Zombie does not appear on the quicksand this time, so delaying the zombies on the quicksand will not be a big problem.
- Start normally. Have at least 4 Twin Sunflowers. Delay the zombies with Iceberg Lettuces, then kill them with Venus Flytrap.
- Use the Bonk Choy behind Venus Flytrap combo and Bloomerang (or any multi-attacking plant) to deal more damage to the zombies.
- Use Plant Food to beat up the first zombie appears on quicksand as you won't have enough sun to plant anything there when it appears.
- Immediately delay and kill the Desert Death Zombie if you can every time it appears.
- Use Venus Flytrap in front of the quicksand to slow down them.
- The final wave will take pretty long. Many Camel Zombies, Pharaoh Zombies and Explorer Zombies will appear. Use Plant Food to help you.

Thai caretaker Prime Minister Yingluck Shinawatra, Tuesday insisted that she would not resign from the caretaking post as anti-government protesters have demanded, Xinhua reported. Yingluck said she would continue to perform her duties as a prime minister because she was obliged to protect democracy that belongs to the Thai people. According to Yingluck, she will take part in a meeting scheduled Wednesday morning to discuss whether the Feb 2 general election will be postponed to May 4 as proposed by the Election Commission .

FAMILIES are living in fear as their Little Hulton estate descends into chaos with rampaging youths terrorising residents.
After a week in which a 13-year-old boy had part of his ear shot off with an airgun and a 74-year-old woman chased away young louts who were pelting bungalows with missiles, beleaguered residents of the Armitage Estate have called for police and city bosses to end the carnage.
Speaking on behalf of the Armitage Residents' Association, Jacqueline Hogg blamed rogue families' youngsters - some aged only nine - for turning the once close-knit estate into a war zone.
"It used to be nice around here but its becoming more and more like Beirut every day," said Jacqueline.
"There are kids roaming the street until all hours of the night. They make all sorts of noise and just go about wrecking the place. People have just had enough and are moving out."
"This has been going on for about four years now but it is just getting worse and worse and something needs to be done now before the place is totally wrecked."
Despite living with the threat that they could face reprisals, the residents' group chose to speak out after:
- A 13-year-old boy was shot in the ear with an air-powered weapon as he played in the street on Fairhurst Drive last Wednesday at 2.45pm. The wounded youngster was taken to the Bolton Royal Infirmary to be treated for head injuries.
- Children as young as 10 have brandished kitchen knives at other youngsters.
- Graffiti has been scrawled on walls throughout the area.
- A playground has been sealed off after it was torn apart by vandals despite being only metres from a police CCTV camera.
- Boarded-up council houses are a regular target for young hooligans.
- A pensioner chased a trio of youths who were hurling bricks at three bungalows on Aspinall Crescent. Later, two of the bungalows were torched and the third looted.
The pensioner who bravely chased the young villains from their attack on the bungalows lives nearby with her 80-year-old husband, who has had two heart attacks and suffers from emphysema.
She said: "I went up to them and shouted, 'What do you think you're doing?',"
"They just ran up a ginnel and hid and a woman came out of a bungalow in hysterics and had to be calmed down by the police."
After the police had gone, she said, the youths returned.
"They must have thought that they hadn't done a good enough job because they came back in the early hours of Sunday morning and set fire to a bungalow, and the next night they did the other one."
"I just can't believe it. It used to be so nice here but it has gone right down hill now and something has got to be done about it."
Last year Little Hulton was made a Policing Priority Area with police given extra funding in a bid to combat crime in the district.
Chief Inspector Jon Faulkner said: "I would refute it has been an estate which has been out of control but we do know of three or four individuals who have been responsible for causing trouble and action will be taken against them."
Chief Insp Faulkner said the residents of the destroyed bungalows have been rehoused. He added: "At this stage it is not certain whether the bungalows were set fire to deliberately or as a result of people trying to steal the gas boilers."
A New Prospect Housing spokesman said: "NPH is well aware of the problems in Aspinall Crescent and is taking robust action."

If so how will he show it? We work together so how will he show it in a work setting?
Most Helpful Guy
First of all, legally it depends on the jurisdiction. The age of consent in most states is actually 16, and in others it is 17, but there are some where it's 18. If you live in any of those states, he could get in trouble if you became physically intimate.
That being said, yes, it's possible. I wouldn't bet on it, because a lot happens in those 4 years to make those ages really different, but it is possible. It's also possible that he's just a friendly, flirtatious person. If he goes out of his way to spend time with you rather than with other people, it's probably a sign. Also, if he invites you to things outside of work, or hints that the two of you should do things outside of work.11|00|0
He is very nice to me at work. He helps me with the smallest things and most of the time he stares at me for no reason during work. Once he even asked if he can give me a ride home. I am not sure if he is just a nice person or he is interested?

Autumn Colors Are All I Have!
So, here are a couple of outfits from this past week which allowed me to feel fall-ish!
19 comments:
I've commented before that I love that scarf. When you're tired of it let me know.ReplyDelete
You look fabulous in fall colours!ReplyDelete
You look so vibrant in these colors, Pam! I especially love that scarf and the orange sweater.ReplyDelete
such yummy colorsReplyDelete
you are making me crave a pumpkin spice latte right now lol
I think you're made for autumn colours! They really suit you so well. The peacock scarf is stunning!ReplyDelete
Autumn is my favorite time of year and I love all the colors.ReplyDelete
Pam, I like seeing style bloggers re-mix their clothes. They are much more relatable - and helpful. You've done a great job of dressing for fall with lighter weight clothes and layers. With weather in the 70s every day here, and a office that gets very hot in the afternoon, I have not touched any of my fall/winter clothes :(ReplyDelete
Pam, I adore the first outfit; the brilliant orange cardigan and the pretty scarf!ReplyDelete
I'm so glad I'm not the only one trying to find ways to celebrate my favorite Season with summer weight clothes in fall colors. It's been so hot here in California! I like how you've mixed in your pumpkin orange. My favorite color!ReplyDelete
it's all feeling a bit damp and dull here....could do with a bit of crisp blue high sunny sky!!ReplyDelete
Love the fall colors. Thanks for the inspiration.ReplyDelete
Okay, you skinny little thing. Leave that peacock scarf and those earrings outside the door. You don't need them anymore, and I DO!!! LOVE!ReplyDelete
Great colors. I love getting out of summer clothes and cuddling up in sweaters and scarves. Wonderful photos.ReplyDelete
It finally looks like rain here in SoCal. It's been too hot think about wearing anything these past few months.ReplyDelete
So elegant! I love those colours, and you look just perfect in them. Thanks for the inspiration.ReplyDelete
I absolutely love your first photo of fashion (loved the other too but the first is my favorite) I am such a lover of the color orange and I wear boots when ever possible. You have great taste!ReplyDelete
As an October baby, I also love orange, and especially the shirt with the orange and blue. Wow! And I love the boots, and the scarf, and the jewelry - you look fabulous!ReplyDelete
Yes, there is nothing like wearing the colors of autumn - love everyone of them. But, that scarf is a must-have.ReplyDelete
I love fall colors, however I do not look good in green or orange so I don't really get to wear them much.ReplyDelete
Thanks so much for joining in our conversation today! I appreciate your time and love hearing from you!

The Great DLC Debate and Why We Still Talk About It
There has been a debate going around about patching in content after a game is made, released, and sold. I'm not talking about DLC, oh no, what I mean is content that should have been in the game originally, but was cut out due to constraints of some sort and being added into the game free of charge later on. Perhaps the most prominent example of this is Final Fantasy XV, which only a few weeks ago, got it's first patch of additional content.

Gesualdo is a roulette aficionado, but was attracted to InterCasino's famous 'Rags to Riches' Machine because of its reputation for making so many players exceedingly wealthy. Finding himself ahead after one of his usual roulette sessions, he decided to invest a little more and try his hand at the spinning reels. Fourteen spins later Gesualdo had cracked the jackpot.
The Rags to Riches Machine has been paying out dizzyingly big jackpots on a regular basis, reinforcing InterCasino's position at the forefront of online gaming. The casino was recently awarded the title 'Best Online Casino' for the fourth consecutive year by Gambling Online Magazine, while Strictly Slots Magazine named it 'Best Online Casino for Slots'.
Gesualdo's win, the second 'Rags to Riches' MEGA-Jackpot win by a Danish player so far this year, reflects the casino's ever-expanding worldwide customer-base, as well as the increasing popularity of online gaming throughout Europe; Scandinavia, it seems, has been particularly bitten by the bug.
'It was kinda crazy,' laughs Gesualdo. 'I'd been checking out the casino, thought it was great, had a little game here and there... And then I won! I didn't dare turn the computer off the whole night in case it turned out not to be true.' Guesaldo, who cites this as his first real big win, says some of the money will go toward buying a house, and the rest will be for having a very nice summer." You can't say fairer than that.
InterCasino.com Manager Ryan Hartley told us: "We're proud of our diverse customer-base; we can to appeal to everyone from countries all around the world and we congratulate Gesualdo on his win. The 'Rags to Riches' story just keeps rolling – it's amazing!"

A new teaser video for 'Urban Myths' has just been released, and it's stirring up controversy.
Last year, news that actor Joseph Fiennes was being cast to portray Michael Jackson was received with skepticism. Now, a new teaser video has been released for the comedy series 'Urban Myths' that confirms that Fiennes will be playing Michael Jackson:
Fiennes does not seem to play a very big part, appearing only for a few seconds. However, the new clip was still enough to stir controversy on social media. People have been making fun of the casting choice by parodying the late singer's most famous lyrics under the hashtag #FiennesJackson:
"You'd like to begin something" is always a real toe tapper. #FiennesJackson— Pterodactyl Farmer (@ayrryk) January 11, 2017

We can't blame the Twitterverse for being upset at this recent upsetting casting choice. After all, we have good reason to believe that Michael Jackson himself would have been upset by the idea of a white actor playing him. He even admitted this exact sentiment to Oprah on TV:

AT&T CEO Stephenson: Unlimited data was a mistake
0. phoneArena posted on 05 May 2012, 03:34
AT&T's CEO Randall Stephenson told a crowd at the Milken Institute's Global Conference that offering unlimited data plans was a mistake and that messaging systems that bypass SMS plans like iMessage are disruptive...
This is a discussion for a news. To read the whole news, click here

Personally, I have noticed my (& alot of the geeks on PA) data use is much higher since your momma learned to skype @ fresh p.
61. BattleBrat (Posts: 1476; Member since: 26 Oct 2011)
@Fresh I would love to have my penis control my brain like yours does your brain, but I think with my big head. And my record for data use was 44gb in one month with my OG DROID.
I didn't even break 1gb last month..... Unlimited data on Verizon
6. kanagadeepan (Posts: 981; Member since: 24 Jan 2012)
Data revenue alone for AT&T is 6.1b$ in just one quarter... MotoMobility costs 12.5b$ for Google... Now see how much these operators are earning and shedding CROCODILE TEARS for UnLimited plans....
7. bintheham (Posts: 13; Member since: 27 Feb 2012)
Exactly. And AT&T is the greediest and sneaky as they come. Cutting my ties with them 2 years ago was the best thing I ever did. I don't care what phones they carry. Their nickel & dime approach to business is not what I need, or any consumer for that matter.
8. InspectorGadget80 (unregistered)
They should fire his greedy a$$ and give us our unlimited data back! And every executive take a HUGE PAYCUT.
9. jeroome86 (Posts: 2112; Member since: 12 Apr 2012)
CEO greed run amok. Text plans are a ripoff anyways. But when you can't get your friends to use the message apps, I have to keep one. Does AT&T even still offer a lower text plan now or is it just unlimited for 20 bucks?
13. thachlel (Posts: 75; Member since: 20 Apr 2012)
I was a great experienced with Cingular, since at&t took over things changed. Price increase and my home line used to be $17 for basic local call and now with at&t $35 same basic! 2 smart phones from $160 to $249 ffkk at&t
15. thachlel (Posts: 75; Member since: 20 Apr 2012)
Btw, luckyly at&t didn't obtain T-Mobile otherwise consumers would even pay more
16. nelsonl21 (Posts: 18; Member since: 17 Jul 2011)
Once again I point out what's the benefit of having a super phone example galaxy note and restrain myself for using all the greatness and feature rich phone???? Now my home internet provider is cutting unlimited data cause of a domino effect. When all carriers had unlimited data both wifi and cell data was balanced now my cell data is running less than 1 gab because I punish myself to not use it on the go for the fear of overage but guess what now my home wifi has increased the triple of what I use. Oh also att uverse cut unlimited data as well. What's the point Randall of offering best in class phones and services that you can use in a small period of time while on the go??? Contradictions oh contradictions...
19. jabberwocky (Posts: 89; Member since: 21 Feb 2012)
He talks about low data users subsidizing high data users? The only way around it is to charge per kb. Tiered plans still include subsidization.
Also, you can't then lament the fact that people are moving away from your MASSIVELY overpriced text plans, which are SUBSIDIZING everything else since they cost nothing to run. Way to talk out of both sides of your mouth.
The fact is, that wireless companies want $100 from you to give you 2GB of data wirelessly, more than the wired providers charge (which are also overpriced in the US), and for 1/20th of the data cap.
If you overcharge for text, people will eventually find ways around it. If you think you can do the same for data, guess what...

go to hell stephenson...
23. atheisticemetic (Posts: 377; Member since: 18 Dec 2011)
I'm not worried about the thumbs downs, but to be quite honest? Unlimited data was a huge mistake. You set the expectation when you release a new technology, so had we not been offered unlimited in the first place we wouldnt have anything to bitch about right? (just like offering discounted phones with a contract...THAT was a mistake too)
what people dont realize is that we are in the golden age of smartphones. There is only so much bandwidth available. In the long scheme of things, if we had kept unlimited data we'd be a huge heap of trouble. HD Voice, google voice? Soon enough we wont even have voice or texting plans...everything will be data technically.
What I dont agree with? If you're not going to give me unlimited data you sure as heck better lower my cost from 30 flipping bucks a month!
Initial rates of 30 bucks for 2gigs of data is a damn ripoff, of this i'm sure we can all agree on.
28. taco50 (banned) (Posts: 5506; Member since: 08 Oct 2009)
Agree with this comment except the phone subsidies. Carriers are are profiting in the long run by adding a bunch more data revenue.
32. remixfa (Posts: 14605; Member since: 19 Dec 2008)
its amazing how you always worry more about carrier profit than your own wallet. Thats how i know you live at home with mommy and she pays for everything.
Subsidies are a bad idea. I wish carriers never went that way. Yea, your phone would be more expencive, but you have no idea just how much cheaper your plan could be if they were not burying costs for devices in the plan. It would also even the playing field with devices. Your precious iphone would be on any and every carrier because carriers wouldnt have to worry about being drowned in subsidy costs.
Then again, getting rid of subsidies also means giving up a lot of power the carriers have. If its not subsidized, why would you want a contract? Why would you put up with carrier's jerking you around with updates and bloatware? Why would you put up with locked devices? All that comes because they have people conditioned to subsidies.
Much like the government and taxes.. resetting the system and reforming it are exactly what we need and is best for everyone, but it will never happen because those in power refuse to give up that power.
34. atheisticemetic (Posts: 377; Member since: 18 Dec 2011)
however this is the reason WHY i would pay full price for a phone.
over the course of two years people have no idea how much they are actually spending on their products. that 300 dollar Razr Maxx cost more than it did retail
33. atheisticemetic (Posts: 377; Member since: 18 Dec 2011)
the only reason why i feel discounted phones are a mistake is because of the phrase "i want a free phone"
so if anything else companies shouldnt have ever offered a free phone :)
39. remixfa (Posts: 14605; Member since: 19 Dec 2008)
ha, i get people all the time pissed that we are getting away from free phones. And I ask them. "do you want to pay 60 bux a month or 130 a month like ATT or VZW".. and they go "60 of course". I respond "well you pay an extra 1600 bux on a contract to save 200 on the phone by going to a carrier with free phones. Did you still want that free phone?
You have no idea how many people say "yea".. palm to the forehead.
They really want the GeeBees and the WiFis bad.
25. Whateverman (Posts: 3284; Member since: 17 May 2009)
Why is it that whenever this guy talks, I get the feeling he really doesn't like his own customers? Or maybe he is just the most painfully honest business man in the cellular industry, because it just sounds like he's saying "We (AT&T) gave customers too much, and they aren't giving us enough in return". What this guy needs is a good spin doctor. A good PR guy/girl who can speak to the media without sounding like Black Beard the Pirate!
40. remixfa (Posts: 14605; Member since: 19 Dec 2008)
i really think he needs to just let someone else talk. He is not helping the whole "evil empire" image.. unless he really just wants to double down on that image.. lol.
26. gaby1451 (Posts: 114; Member since: 30 Mar 2011)
This guy is getting on my nerves. First he bitches about losing the purchase of T-Mobile, then threatens to raise the price of service for consumers because of it, and now he's regretting making unlimited data a mistake? COME OFF IT ALREADY.
27. MartyK (Posts: 947; Member since: 11 Apr 2012)
The ONLY way this guy would change his ways is if his company was the #3 or #4 company in the USA, but since AT&T is in the top two, he/they will never appreciate their customers; this is how CEO and/or company works.
35. Jyakotu (Posts: 854; Member since: 12 Dec 2008)
Here's what AT&T and all other carriers should look at for their mobile data plans: have plans set up like their broadband Internet services. For example, say you have a smartphone. Obviously, the phone can run on EDGE 2G, 3G, and 4G HSPA+/LTE, right.? So how about for smartphones, carriers allow people to choose the type of data connection they want access to.? Instead of pricing it by amount, do it by the speed. If you want 4G LTE, then you pay a premium. If you can get by with 3G, then you pay a little less. For those with feature phones, 2G or 3G should be enough, since I assume those with feature phones don't really have a need for a web connection. And the usage should be unlimited.
My vision:
2G Unlimited - $10
3G Unlimited - $20
4G HSPA+/LTE Unlimited - $30
Long story short: unlimited data plans that allow users to choose based on speed, not the amount. And this way, if and whenever 4G comes to your area, you can upgrade to the plan accordingly.
56. jtm1208 (Posts: 37; Member since: 16 Jun 2009)
Lte is not only faster it is more cost efficent as well for the carriers. so that model would only keep people on slower technology that is more expensive for the carrier. That will never happen
44. jeroome86 (Posts: 2112; Member since: 12 Apr 2012)
Don't give any ideas. They may try that. Only differences will be 30,40, and 50 for lte.

46. ScelesticSteve (Posts: 26; Member since: 29 Mar 2012)
Gosh, he's such a freakin' cry baby. He's all of the media whining and crying about something all the time. If AT&T would quit being such a hateful, greedy, s**tty company Karma might quit biting them in the ass repeatedly.
47. quryous (banned) (Posts: 106; Member since: 07 Mar 2012)
"AT&T CEO Stephenson: Unlimited data was a mistake."
Yea, they should have screwed the customer even more, from the beginning. None of the embarrassment of policy and price changes.

51. Forsaken77 (Posts: 553; Member since: 09 Jun 2011)
I say we ALL start using services like "iMessage" that disrupt the carriers' business models. That's the only way we can get them to change things. This guy just showed us a kink in their armor... LET'S STRIKE!!!
52. JunitoNH (Posts: 1934; Member since: 15 Feb 2012)

cant really fault this place. its not a party hostel but it is sociable...the party hostels are on Long st but then you can come back here to rest! location is great, walkable to long street and other places of interest. nice and quiet in my room but some rooms wouldn't get the same peace due to location. staff were really friendly. security at the main door made me feel safe. the breakfast was amazing - choice and plentyfull! comfy beds, loads of space in dorm rooms. clean bathrooms and kitchen

A rare 10 rating from me! Loved this place! GREAT breakfast buffet, upgraded us from the dorms to a private room, great location walkable to all the bars and restaurants. Wifi wasn't always the strongest with so many people using it but that's hostels for you. Can't speak to the dorms but we had a great experience. Don't have anything negative to say!
Thank you so much for all your positive remarks and we hope to see you back again soon! Kind Regards, The Backpack Team.

A friendly hostel, great breakfasts and a chilled out bar in the evenings. Stayed in a single which was fine, although very cold in Cape Town winter. Would stay again.
Looking forward to your next stay :)

Cozy place -BUT no individual lockers in room (wood was broken so not possible to lock) and old facilities (don't expect it to be fresh or renovated - although it is clean). I got a room next to the busy road and as windows couldn't completely close, it was sooo difficult to sleep during my 5 nights there.
Hi there, we are sorry that your ocker did not work. However, we will always provide a safe space for guests' belongings should they need it. Cape Town traffic can be noisy in the mornings, so we always suggest a good pair of ear plugs while traveling! Kind Regards, The Backpack Team

I felt safe enough, but there aren't lockers in the rooms and it isn't preferable to walk around the area after dark. The intern was very helpful to me, but the permanent staff at the desk really need to learn about friendliness if they're choosing to go into the hospitality industry. Also, please notify when someone's luggage is delivered instead of letting it sit there! The breakfast is ok, and there are multiple places to sit and chill. Moderately social.

The breakfast here was fantastic. VERY clean hostel. The atmosphere was a bit lacking though. I just thought the hostel would be much more lively however I came to enjoy this hostel because I could count on coming back to a quiet hostel. I could walk down to Long street in 3 min and get crazy if I wanted. True party hostels can get a little exhausting especially on the nights where you want just chill. Over all, I would not hesitate to book here again.
Hi there, thank you for staying with us. We are glad you had a good time and enjoyed the relaxing vibe that we offer here.

It could have at least one more shower room. There's only one for 5 (or more) rooms (each room with capacity for 4 to 8 people).

Nice hostel, but definitely can get better for the amount you pay. Towels aren't actually free, staff were helpful but definitely could've been more friendly, and safes aren't located inside the rooms. Breakfast was decent. Cute cat. But can definitely get better hostels for the price.
Hi there, sorry to hear that you think we fell short on delivery. We do our best to make guests feel like they have the best service and cater to all their needs.

One common problem is the fact that without an ISP (Internet Service Provider) you can't take advantage of this remote viewing technology. Many of our readers are in remote locations, or in a Cable or DSL hole, even in a big city. Would we lead you on without a solution to this problem? Since we have been dealing with Mobile Broadband since it has been available, we can show you some great ways to connect the two technologies and make your life all warm and fuzzy once again.
