  3. Possibly not. When I went to sign up, my password must start with a letter, contain digits, and have a capital letter in it. Who the hell has that for their password?!??! This makes ppl come up with new passwords and therefore they will forget it. Morons. Though I signed up anyway, here meh links https://www.plimus.com/jsp/redirect.jsp?contractId=2851626&referrer=1009908 https://www.plimus.com/jsp/redirect.jsp?contractId=2851632&referrer=1009908
  4. Can we not have 'wtf' in topic titles plz bob? Its sorta almost a pet hate of mine :P
  5. It was a joke. I meant that any page you try to access on rmxpu, it would redirect you so you get the cookie from the affiliate page. If any of our redirected traffic buys the program, we get the money. Technically I could make a redirect occur once for each IP or account, and the user would be oblivious to what I we actually did :whistle:
  6. get money get paid

  7. More like, we should set up a redirect for like a week, so ALL our visitors who eventually end buying software from the site will earn us $18 each :sweatdrop:
  8. Um.. me gusta. Everyone, links in your sigs :biggrin_002:
  9. Yes, if the context of equality it does not make sense to compare them. There was a US Supreme Court decision that ruled a corporation is a 'person' for the sake of legislation that applies to individuals (i was literally just told when I posed the question to someone in the room with me :P). This makes the term 'unfair' only irrelevant morally, but anyway. I think the income tax paid by a factory worker who works his ass off day in day out for nearly his entire life SHOULD be comparable, in the content of 'fairness', to the profits made by the corporation. Where do those profits go? They go to the owners of the corporation, bonuses to managers, retained earnings etc. The point is that all these things should be taxed so that governments can redistribute wealth for greater equality. If I'm a factory worker, working hard every day, and some of almost-minimum hourly rate is taxed (which I was during a particular summer job), then why shouldn't the profits of corporations be taxed before they're distributed to individuals or used to make them richer? But again, the context of fairness may be an irrelevant one. Corporations should be taxed for the good of the country, to spread wealth and spend where the public needs it most (ie jobs, education, health). Not regulation legislation. My point was that tax is has to be established in a statute, its illegal not to pay tax, therefore the government has legislated to allow corporations not to pay tax. I didn't mean regulate them more, I just meant legislate to tax them appropriately. Personally I think taxing corporations will go a long way to reducing the debt. A massive issue is the banks. In New Zealand and Australia our financial systems were more resilient in the global financial crisis than in the US and Europe. But I really don't know how you go about changing such an established system. I think thats off topic though :P EDIT: Yeah Franklin, i think the whole tax issue directed at corporations profits only. Usually dividends are taxed twice; once by the corporation as profits and 2nd when they are received by shareholders.
  10. I pretty disagree with this entire quote. Firstly, the tax you're talking about is goods and services tax, and that is NOT paid by the corporation its paid by you and (not me coz I dont live in the US). This defeats the whole entire purpose of the protest - the poor pay tax while the large corporations get away with it. So much revenue is lost. If one person or entity has to pay tax, we ALL must pay tax, and tax is what runs a government and a country. Taxing the larger corporations obviously brings more revenue to the government, and it can therefore be redistributed to the poor indirectly through public spending. You should not be thankful for the very common saying; it makes the rich get richer and the poor get poorer. Also, why did you say corporations pay tax and then give reasons why they dont? Well, I don't know the system over their very well, probably mentioned US taxes in my finance textbooks but I promptly disregarded it. The US administration clealy does not know economics. The country nearly defaulted recently, and lets not get into politics but who's legislating to give these huge corporations such enormous tax breaks? You can't ignore the poor, because eventually they are going to rise up (all 99% of them). I say you all should occupy wall street. Lets see if there's any democracy left. (I apologize if I sound rude in that reply, if i do my rudeness is intended for subject matter)

  11. So its just a webapp that looks like an OS? Looks nice so far. You won't release any more info coz there is none to release yet?
  12. Congratulations Dragon. Keep up the good work :alright:
  13. You shouldn't call other members idiots, even though it may appear this member just trolling. I'll lock this topic then delete these posts in a few days. I like my old topics untainted by spam
  14. No lol we cool

  15. what? i fixed it :S

  16. fixed ur stupid nintendo forum

  17. Ha ha haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
  18. The answer is that it was a spontaneous change and im not a gamer. Kiriashi or Pol can deal with fixing that up or removing them until I get back. I won't be user a computer till November coz of exams.
  19. You may want to consider making the poll anonymous. Probably won't affect votes though. You know my answer and my reasoning. You may have a really wide screen Franklin, but this resolution is the standard to be compliant with the majority. Members who have not noticed a change in the resolution should not vote. This is members with a resolution of approx 1024px.
  20. im shutting down my computer for the next 7 days

  21. For the demo you probably just want to use the default fault to maximize compatibility. There are probably a few who downloaded it, couldn't get it working and left it. If you want more feedback, that's probably a good idea. :mellow: Then why do you want feeback? I feel you owe me more gameplay now.. ;)
  22. It would also be much easier if you condensed it. For example It would take the player a while just to walk around this square when all he's really interested in is the house. The area is so much bigger than the house, what are you going to decorate it with? It will also allow the player to see what's coming next. On that map, you won't know whats above or below you, unless you made the map of course :P
