Didn't realize that was option! There's also a link provided to more documentation on the ruby website. Why ink gotta be so expensive tho

I swear I just read something earlier today about how symbols couldn't be placed on the left side of an assignment...

Haven't they have been stepping backwards in that regard ever since Daggerfall? I thought Daggerfall had a great and easy to access spell system and a really nice but harder to access magic item creator. But it seems the games made spell/item creation harder and more limited, and even removed the ability altogether later. Those systems were one of the best parts of Daggerfall too, along with it's character creation options. I haven't played much of any elder scrolls that came before Oblivion. I tried morrowind multiple times but always end up feeling lost. I just remember that in Oblivion, I could buy abajillion spells in any one magic shop and have this incredible selection, then I could later mix and match them. I just thought it was fun to try and collect as many spells as possible.

I found the commands thing by looking through the reference guide included with VXA, found by going to the help tab and clicking on Contents. It's tough because multiple people would set something into one of the 99 skill type slots, but no one ever actually broke the limit. Looking through the scripts myself I found that the Terms tab is like... imaginary, almost. It's weird like I couldn't find a direct reference to that specific window. But finding the scripts that draw up the rest of the tabs is incredibly simple, so it's very conflicting and perplexing. I'm currently learning more and more about the RGSS3 every day, if I ever discover how to break the skill type limit you'll be the first to know.

I would like to actually defend Oblivion (and tales) on this account (I hate Skyrim but I guess for this I sort of am defending it as well. First of all with the way the storyline is set up, we have no idea what our character's backgrounds really are. You literally cannot say that your character has had no training, because we don't know that. And in Xillia the main characters both do actually have tons of training under their belts. Also most regular soldiers are really only above average combatants. If they were really amazing at what they did, they wouldn't be normal guards and soldiers. I mean, there are veterans and exceptions to this but for the most part A normal cop or a normal solider aren't considered amazing fighters, but they are definitely better than most. Which means most of them probably don't have the latent talent needed (whether that be in just a genetic way or whatever) to be amazing fighters. Most main characters in games do have that latent talent, or some b.s. fate backing. One last thing, in these games the characters you play as start from the bottom with low levels, or get knocked down to low levels, and then through real experience, life threatening demanding experience, they train. Many soldiers don't have that kind of experience. They just have the drills and training. Once soldiers start to accumulate real experience they start to climb the ranks or they soon retire. So yeah, but I hate Skyrim because they completely destroyed Oblivion's amazing magic mechanics. There's no reason to take a step backwards like that.

Next project: making a game that makes itself.

So I did actually take the time to look at all this stuff, but there's not much solid evidence behind most of this. The Sandy Hook one was pretty believable though, and I'm definitely leaning more towards "it was staged" after seeing that. The Family Guy/Seth Mcfarlan one is kinda disturbing, but I didn't take the time to actually check the dates of the episodes and get hard evidence so I'm a bit skeptical. It could also be a case of the collective unconscious etc etc.

FIRST OF ALL... Yeah, there are definitely characters that are over-sexualized. Take a look at many MMORPGs. Why the tanks wearing bikinis with no specified enchantments, though? However I believe most people who get upset about sexualization in games do it for the wrong reasons, from my perspective. They do it because they don't like losing self confidence - and they often get upset about the finely crafted physique of women who literally live in a state constant physical trial. Many people really get upset for very personal and egotistical reasons, but hey, who am I to say that's wrong? It's just ignorant from my point of view, but probably not from theirs. I also believe that there is nothing wrong with covering your bases. You can sculpt personalities to the richest degree for those who are a bit more comfortable with deeper understandings, but lets face it, most of the world isn't like that. There is nothing wrong with placing sexualized characters in a game in order to capture that audience that will only be captured in such a way. It's like good food, you want it to taste good on multiple levels( like when its cold, when its old, when its fresh, when its hot. You want it to taste good at all points of its existence) Same with games, and I see musicians are the best at this (much better than hollywoodians). They can make a song that is both deep and shallow at the same time, both to make money and to share their wisdom with the ones who can really hear what they are actually saying. A lot of people talk smack about Lil Wayne but he(or his writer) says some really deep stuff in a lot of his songs. He just gets a bad rep cuz he does what he's gotta do to stay on top. I WANT TO TRY TO MAKE SOME POINTS USING CHARACTERS MENTIONED ALREADY Let's start with characters that are oversexualized. Sophitia was mentioned, and was defended for being skimpy because of the time period. But cmon, Sophitia is one of the purest SoulCal characters. If her actual character was given a choice, I would be willing to make big bets that she would cover up more. It really bothers me to see characters with purehearted ambitions being portrayed just for the entertainment of people with little self control. Taki was also mentioned, and I disagree with what Chaos said. Taki is a KUNOICHI, which literally train their sexualization. Yeah, the spandex is a little above her day grade, but if she could get her hands on spandex she would definitely utilize it in the fashion that the developers have her do. This goes for Mai as well. The bouncing boobs are part of a kunoichi strategy. A true warrior(especially a ninja free from the binds of "honor") uses every tool they can. It just so happens that Taki and Mai have some really potent tools. In fact, it would be STUPID not to sexualize those characters as much as possible. But I only say this because it very much fits who they are. and then there are games like Bayonetta (and the DOA volleyball). I played a lot of that game when I lived with a friend. I love the DMC series, and assumed that Bayonetta would be right there with it. People are welcome to disagree, but the game wasn't even that good. It was a weak, oversexualized ripoff of DMC(Devil May Cry). In fact, I'm pretty sure the only reason that game has done even half as well as it's done is simply because it features the kinds of main characters that it does. If it was less sexual then I guarantee you that it would have been considered a failure. So, even though the character might fit the sexual bill, in this case it doesn't matter. The entire game was kind of a sham. It's like the majority of the anime you see nowadays, no hidden content. None of that layered deep stuff hidden somewhere, like I was discussing earlier. The writing is subpar, the story is weak. The characters don't actually have much personality depth. Anyway, to sum it all up, or TLDR; Yes oversexualization is possible. However I believe it's not nearly as serious or as often occuring as many people claim it to be. Some characters are very sexual but for good reason, and some characters are maybe not sexual enough, while others are too sexual. But really, what'r gunna do?

I was looking around and couldn't find any scripts that actually stretched the limits of the skill type command list in Terms tab. You might want request scripts in the actual scripting sections to see if anyone can even figure it out. I looked a little bit and couldn't seem to find any information directly impacting the limits of skill types. I did find, however, that skill types as well as element types and whatnot all count as commands. Not sure what you can do with that, though.

Speaking as someone with trust issues I can definitely say that tests are wrong and that people like me should stay out of relationships at all costs. However, speaking on the hard to get issue, many people believe someone is playing hard to get when they aren't. Imagine being someone with trust issues and you meet someone you develop a passion for, but know that you have issues and can not get involved for both of your goods. HOWEVER that person also has a passion for you and keeps trying. All of a sudden, your playing hard to get. Even when you explain to them, "no, I have trust issues, I really just don't want to be in a relation, etc etc." but its obvious that you like them. So I have a suggestion. Just, don't chase a person. Ever. If they even seem like they're playing hard to get a little bit, just let it go. It'll be better for everyone that way.

To Chaos and Jelly I agree that we are ultimately to blame for the way the world is, for it not improving wholly in strides. I agree that people ultimately are apathetic about it, and that's actually one of the main things that I criticize people about. People like to say "oh I cant help everyone" or "Oh don't blame yourself for all that you can't make things better" etc etc, but if we all tried, or worked towards trying, then we could make a real difference and we could improve things. Also, I actually don't immerse myself in conspiracy. I don't look a lot of things up and I don't think about conspiracies a lot. I'm too busy trying to learn to script and program, and too busy writing. Too busy with school, plus I think there's too much misinformation and I'm too lazy to sift through all that bs for the good stuff. However, how can you strongly say that these things don't exist? I mean, how much of this world do you really know? How many people have you really met? How many military bases have you been too? How many inches of the world have you covered? How can you say, for sure, that these things don't exist without having absolute definite proof that they don't. Maybe, instead of me trying to console myself and think the world isn't horrible because of me and humanity, maybe instead you're trying to console yourself and allow yourself to feel empowered, maybe you are scared of not having control of yourself and you'd rather accept everything as your fault, even when it isn't? unless you're saying that since we're all connected atomically that everything is technically your fault, and by default, all our faults. Okay, how many of your actions do you consciously control? I mean, a lot of what you do is left up to your subconscious. Do you purposely, consciously, intently control your breathing every second of the day? Do you control every single little thought that enters your mind? Do you purposely take every single step that you take, and move your body exactly how you want too at all times? Have you never once in your life accidentally walked into a room without meaning too, or went too far while spacing out, or said something you didn't mean too? And you want to tell me that there is no possible way you can't be influenced? Chaos can't be completely controlled, but it CAN be influenced, at certain scales. That much has been proven time and time and time again, even with Chaos theory in existence. Especially with Chaos theory, because Chaos Theory says that once you pass a certain scale that things become unstable. But what is that scale of influence? Every persons has a different one for themselves. So it is possible, and while we are ultimately responsible for things, it doesn't mean we can't be influenced.

To Killo Did I imply humans were wretched creatures? If I did, I did not mean too. I believe experiences have shaped some people into horrible people, but I believe for the most part many people would actually do good unless forced into circumstances of self-preservation. And even then there are some people who would choose others above themselves. Like I tried to state before, just because there might be a controlling shadowy organization doesn't mean they are evil. They could be benevolent, maybe they steered us away from some horrible things. Maybe they are the people who believe they will get their hands dirty so that others wont have too. Or they could be straight evil. idk. But I am aware of the possibility. Okay, I believe existence itself is amazing or awesome, but I don't mean that in a positive or negative way. It's highly contradictory that anything like this could exist. Except in statistics, where anything is possible after enough repetition. However trying to say the accomplishments of human beings is anywhere near as astounding as the mere existence of everything is strange, at best. Which is again what I'm saying, when you compare how far (which isn't far at all) humans have made it to how far we will one day make it, it's not impressive at all. I mean, you can look at it from a buddhist/tao sort of standpoint and say it's equally as amazing for a snail to move a foot as it is for a bird to fly a mile as it is for a human to take a plane around the world. When it comes to terms of accomplishment, though, that snail is easily capable of more as is the bird, and the humans seem even more so accomplished in that light. But in the scale of things all those accomplishments are specks, both in time and space ratios. I really like that russels teapot, and it reminds me of Schroedingers Cat. Except with the cat, nothing is true or false. The cat is both dead and alive, but neither dead and alive as all possibilities exist until proven otherwise. I think with both the teapot and the cat my point stands; any intelligent choice would be to say we can't know, but that it is possible. There could very well be a teapot, or a planet full of talking donkeys around sirius. It's unlikely - for as much as we know logically - but to speak adamantly for or against until proven otherwise, that's just ignorant. I think if shadowy forces were behind Fox News, then it would be a joke on purpose. Which, its funny you call it joke, but you do realize the sheer amount of people who actually take Fox seriously, right? You call it a joke, but a vast number of people actually watch and believe that show religiously. Which again, leads me to my point of that people can be influenced and all the anti-propaganda is only taken up by people who are immediately casted out as lunatics and paranoids by a majority of the american population. As for if people would betray each other in groups like those, maybe they do. Maybe they betray each other all the time. There's no reason why it couldn't happen. Stuff could get leaked out all the time, and then people could be killed off all the time. The top dogs could be constantly in survival mode. Perhaps the groups have fallen apart crumbled and come back together.

It seems to me like you believe these kinds of organizations have end goals other than retaining power. I also seem to get the feeling that you believe these kinds of shadows wouldn't want some sort of singularity, and that everything they do has to be evil. Also if these organizations existed, they would go much deeper than politics, business, and money. To me its sort of like someone playing with an ant farm, or a group of people playing with an ant farm. Can they control them directly, willing the whole to do something? No, of course not. But after years of research they can indirectly influence the ants. They drop in a specific piece of food here. Introduce a predator there. Block a tunnel, add a tunnel. Etc etc etc. Saying that humanity has advanced far at all is sort of... small. Only compared to the way we started have we advanced at all. When it comes to the scale of things, though, humanity has barely taken a step. And really, if there are some crazy obsessive hacker teenagers out there who can bust into the pentagon, why can't there be some 40 year old guy who used to be a genius hacker and has only gotten more and more skill while working for an organization that can provide unlimited resources. Why couldn't there be hundreds of them? Also why wouldn't they be able to understand how we think? When it comes down to it, in some way, us and them are one and the same. So yeah, they could and probably do understand how we think, assuming they exist at all. Why would they want to "shut us down and censor us"? And if we can be controlled by our ideals, why couldn't they release an ideal here, and an ideal there, such as patriotism? Or such as communism is bad. Kill the commies. Jews are devil spawn. Lets put them in camps and gas em. Middle east? Damn terrorists. Ragheads. Kill em all. You know, for some examples of both addictive concepts and propaganda. Did you know the majority of people get their news from television? Not from personal investigation. And in a lot of places, majority rules. Yet its the majority who is actually trusting their entertainment. I'm not saying believe in this conspiracy, that it is definitely true. I'm simply saying it could easily be true, and while nobody should obsess over it, the idea that it is a possibility should definitely exist. I'm saying that we don't know whether they exist or not, and until we have unrelenting evidence that says they don't exist, we must accept the possibility that they could exist without saying that they definitely do. Both extremes are a rejection of personal ignorance.

I'm glad you brought up the Rothchilds, because regardless of whether or not there are orgs like the illuminati, the Rothchilds are very real and have an incredible amount of power in the world. The way the world bank system operates is insane, pretty much every major country is in debt to the Rothchilds and other bank affiliates. I'm going to look at all your links right after class! There's a lot of them so I don't have enough time right now xD

As noticeable as millions of people liking Call of Duty over and over again. Or everyone liking movies that have been redone a hundred times. As noticeable as everyone going crazy over issues like the confederate flag when there are much more morally important things to consider (at least I believe so.) Yeah, these things are noticeable to the few outside of the majority. For the people who are caught up and swept up in the currents though, it's much harder to notice. I definitely agree that as a whole humanity can't be taken over. The problem is, the ones who aren't caught in the influence don't have the right political or monetary leverage to do anything. All the big wolves out there are either directly under the influence or part of the conspiracy... is one argument. The world IS very chaotic, but to control the world you don't have to control everyone, just the majority. As long as you can influence leaders, they can influence the majority of their people. So you only really need like China, America, Japan, India, Russia, etc etc under control, and only the biggest parts of those places. Plus the way I always saw it was that they have very very long terms plans and they slowly influence things here and there. No need to do things immediately, especially if they pass their plans down the family line. Gradual little changes that seem natural here and there, but ultimately build up to a specific goal. Same for aliens, I figure they may want to guide us in a certain direction and keep us on an evolutionary track where we dont advance too slowly or too fast and ruin our own existence. They don't want to show us that other life does exist in the universe yet, because they don't want us getting too ambitious as a species. Once we meet a certain requirement, then I believe they will be like, "Hey good job Humies you should join our U.G. United Galaxies. Jeez there's a lot to say on this subject.
