Probably a Stink Bug that was nearly dead.

For any admin: what did you want to be when you grew up, and how close are you to doing that now?

Also, why does Vlorsutes hate Galkas? Enquiring minds want to know, and all that.

Aerospace engineer. I have 3/4 of a degree in that, though I eventually switched to security and Intel studies and got my degree in that instead. Still would like to go back and finish the other someday, though now I work in an IT shop so it wouldn't really help anything.

I dunno why Vlorsutes hates Galkas. maybe he tripped over one?

If you had one day to do whatever you wanted with no consequences at all, let's just say it's erased from history, what would you do?

Let's also assume traveling anywhere in the world is done by teleporting and would not require any time.

Can we give Bijou a title early, but make it so he still can't actually see it?

I see a problem here. Just how many posts long was the longest thread ever?

Do you live in the northwest?

There is a thread in the FFXI DRK forum that's been going since 12/25/2009. It's the third or fourth incarnation of that particular thread. Every now and again they get closed and replaced. Though the current thread has been going longer than any of the others.

There is also a second one that I don't really count, as it's just a ding thread, that's been going on since 08/12/2005.

No. But when I see another one, I'll take a pic. It didn't occur to me to try and find out what the hell it was until after I had flushed the evidence.

Lets see, first i'd find a nice cave somewhere really remote and teleportable and set up a power infrastructure. teleport in a large generator, fuel, food, solar, etc. Then i'd teleport in a U.S. mint printing press, one of the $20, $10 and $5 plates (the larger denominations attract more attention) and the requisite paper, ink, etc. Also some startup legitimate money from various major bank vaults, etc. Once I had my large pile of neverending cash, I'd set up legitimate bank accounts around the world with large amounts of electronic funds, including a largeish one in russia. I'd then buy an island (20-50 miles in diameter) with water, suitable location for an airstrip, a harbor area and potable water. I'd then use the russian account to buy 2 decomissioned russian nuclear missile submarines (complete with a few missiles), 2 nuclear attack submarines, a huge pile of small arms, anti aircraft weapons, a few Migs, some helicopters, maybe some surface warships. along with as much power, sewer, water and data infrastructure as I could purchase. I'd also buy several large vertical CNC mill and lathe installations suitible for constructing large warships, aircraft, and tanks. I'd then bring in people to turn the island into an impregnable fortress backed by a nuclear deterrent, start building a massive navy and start my war of conquest to rule the world. It would take more than a day, but if I had unlimited funds I could at least sign all the contracts to pay for it and get it started in one day.


Maybe we already did and its so tiny no one can see it!



it was up near 36,000 when I killed it.


It might be a slug of some sort. Here are pictures of common slugs of hawaii. http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/2/2e/Slugs_1896.jpg and a video. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lw2wwjxmWY4 They eat plants so they are pests. try pouring salt on it and see if it shrivles up and dies. if it doesn't, its not a slug or a snail.

Maybe a Cottony cushion scale?
