    What do you think about this idea?

    The new members, after they have registered here, will (shall) be linked to the FAQ first (Not yet to the forum), to know about The Rules.

    *salutes* I'll get right on it! You know. After Chemistry. Because that shit demands a certain amount of brain cells be focussed on what I'm doing.

    Chemistry was OK up until the point they decided to mix mathematics into it. Smartassery aside, why would anyone want to know the exact number of atoms in twelve grams of gold anyhow?

    If something has no practical use in the making of bombs, genetically enhanced supersoldiers or chemical weapons, it is irrelevant to the subject.

    Well, because if you're creating medicines you need to know the number of molecules that will react with each other, accuracy is key. Otherwise people die.

    THANK you! My point exactly! I'm a fucking lab tech, not a bleeding research scientist! When am I ever going to need to know this shit? (And don't start me on Avogadro's number or moles, because then I'll have to kill someone to relieve the stress, and I'm trying to cut back on the random homocides.)

    Meh, chemistry was one of my favourite subjects. Anyway, no sciences for me now. Damn lawbooks...

    You just keep up with that, you hear me? I might need a good lawyer one day.

    Well, I suspect you might want to hire someone other than me then.

    Ladies and gentlemen, we are not overly proud to be presenting you with a perfect example of why Xiao no longer watches much anime:

    Random, baseless declaration made only to increase antagonism in an irritating manner. Why is Dark Elf his foe? No explanation!

    Oh, THAT. I never played M:tG, never will. I've already spent several thousand dollars on D&D 3.5, I don't need another money-draining hobby now thanks.

    Really so which section is it going in?
    The only section without one is the Arcanum Discussion, which probably could use one.


    p.s: I'm red. Fitting, since my main deck is red/green. :)

    Last time I was white.

    Apparently, I'm a bit more chaotic now.

    There isn't a single green person here? I guess I shouldn't be that amazed. The green questions were kind of obvious, as well as dumb.

    To be honest, I'm surprised there is even white on this board. That's almost as bad as those green loving tree-huggers.
