I have one. I hope that if you import a world state in DA4, where the HoF is alive, BW will ask you to recreate them, them immediately proceed to cut them into little pieces with an axe and feed them to those crazy Hinterlands bears. Maybe then the HoF threads will stop. (Honestly, another one?)

:lol: I need this to happen. biower pls.

Realized last night I've been going by the wrong limit on my diet so giving it up for a while.

 

Also certain threads going into bad places, though I could be wrong and no one will respond to that stuff, but I kind of doubt it.

I'm a little too fond of my Warden to want to see them cut up out of spite for the internet.

 

If we're nominating recurring threads, I'm sick of the 'can we play a First Blight prequel' ones. They've been around forever.

I've been having to do crap for these past few days, and I didn't even make enough to bother taxing any more than the standard social security and medicaid deductions

Ah, the joys of having parents that do my taxes! Granted, I've offered to do them, but my mom just does all the family taxes just to make sure we don't eff it up lol.

Been roughly a month since I was told that the room I'd be moving into would be worked on and just found out that they haven't even started on it yet. I know they don't have to let me move in so I shouldn't be upset, but my life is almost literally on hold until I can move so at the moment I am deeply upset and a little pissed off to find this out. Even more so knowing that the chance of me offering to help clear out a space will be rejected is fairly high, since it was rejected last time.

I honestly get anxiety everytime I see an H&R Block commercial.  Over the past 10 years, I've ended up owing tens of thousands of dollars in taxes (mostly because the life of a quasi-academic means cobbling together stipend based gigs that are often undertaxed or not taxed at all).  I haven't gotten money back since about 2003.  And because I've been working non-profits, I've had numerous close calls with collections because the IRS is brutal if you aren't a 1%er. 

 

I thought for sure that this year would be different because I'm not doing any consulting and I'm just working one "normal" non-profit salaried position and I have a ****-ton of tuition and school expenses to deduct.  Aaaaaaaand......turns out that my HR department messed up when they entered by W-2 information and they haven't been taking enough taxes out, so I owe $2600.  I just can't win.  I genuinely hate Ted Cruz, but I have to admit that I sigh wistfully everytime he mentions demolishing the IRS.  I don't care what % I pay in taxes (since I lean towards socialism anyway) -- I just don't want to get a bill at the end of the year.  Take it all throughout the year.  The bill that I end up having to pay in April is crippling.

Taxes, yuck! And I like math. :) Last year I got hit hard but this year was much more bearable. It was a bit funny though someone stole our identity and filed taxes the previous year, I guess the joke was on them though, since we owed so much. What a pain it is to try and get your identity back.

HaHa, you know I half posted that knowing your distaste for math. I figured you wouldn't give me a free ride on that comment. :lol:

I miss Allan coming into threads and reminding posters to not play the pronoun game. Remind me not to read threads that go into that. I'm tempted to post my Eddie Murphy gif, because it's only going to get worse in there.

Oh and taxes do suck. We had to go to H&R Block to get that worked out. We owe some money, but it isn't the $8000 Turbo Tax was claiming.

Let me guess, the new Sexuality thread? It wouldn't be BSN, if mentioning Mae didn't auto spawn at least 3 posts reading "PC!PC!," "flat chest - a dude," and "I won't romance him."

 

But yeah, it would be nice to have Allan back.

 

That thread has now moved to different...things. I don't even understand, what's going on there anymore.

 

Also, math is great!

From reading the thread, folks are trying to move on and post ideas on topic. I like that, since there is some posters I enjoy reading that I don't want to see get into trouble.

Allan is working on MEA, according to his twitter. So he's probably just too busy at the moment. Plus, I find posting on the BSN to be a bit draining and I can't imagine what it's like as a dev. I asked Allan once what the worst thing a poster said to him. He told me that the poster said, "Your mom should have had an abortion so you couldn't work on DA2." Ugh.

I'm no good at math, which is why I married someone who is. ;)

I should be surprised, but after the response Jennifer Hepler got, sadly I'm not :/ I was actually hoping he's moved up the ladder and gotten a bigger role working on Andromeda. Can't blame him for staying away from BSN.

 

I got lucky and found a teacher, who made learning math easy. Guess I should write that on my dating profile then ;)

Got my chest binder today and it's too short, and barely knocks me down a cup size. Probably too much to hope that I can find something that makes me utterly flat chested given my size but at least a couple sizes down would be great.

Well, I'm at least happy that you got something.  Even if it's not perfect.  I'm sure that you'll find the right one for you.

It's about as grand as the Bioware level version of it:  "I'm a real Bioware fan which is why I want them to stop focusing on this SJW stuff because it's just going to cause the fanbase to flock to the glorious Witcher series and Bioware will go bankrupt.  It's for their own good that I say this-- as a real fan......"  Barf.

I feel I did my good deed for the day by pointing out that you can wear a dress to the ball. No idea if the OP will follow through with the modding, though. I personally dislike dress models in games, any games, because any sort of movement makes you look like tent legs. I despised the robe options in DAO and DA2 and avoided them if possible, even if the alternatives had crappy stats.
 
And randomly, going to the DA2 Nexus for the first time in months shows this new mod on the front page, an overhaul of the Anders romance dialogue. Some of the changes, and ideas behind the changes, sound good; I'm especially keen on the fem dialogue concerning Karl. BUT having that play out before (or after?) the sex scene seems kinda... weird? I don't really think that anyone, regardless of their gender or sexuality and how that matches with their partner (and their sexuality) would want to hear about some other meaningful romantic relationship before or after you've just had sex. The mHawkes also seem to get an extra flirt response in one of the dialogues.

All right, I'm curious now. What is this referring to?

Well, David Gaider wouldn't have an issue with it. After all he has Cassandra bring up her past lover while she and the Inquisitor are spooning after they just had sex.

It really depends on how it was done, I suppose. I haven't done the Cassandra romance, so I can't comment. However, I am familiar with the Anders dialogue and how it plays out in the appropriate scene with male Hawke. Switching that particular scene just doesn't fit in the bedroom context as it plays out in DA2. There is no other dialogue to supplement the fact that he is reminiscing about his now-dead former lover, to then segue into making a move on Hawke. The difference is in the fact that the Cassandra scene was written that way, but the Anders one was not.

 

You could say the same about any sort of pre- or post-sex dialogue that is somewhat troublesome in an emotional way. I will even say this about the Dorian dialogue, although that largely depends on how you RP your Inquisitor. Up until that point, Dorian is so confident but then... he's just not. Before Dorian explains the issue, I don't think that an initial first thought from the Inquisitor of, "Did we make a mistake?" would be unwarranted. Dorian may think that he was hiding what he wanted, but I think that he does send some clear signals in the lead up to sex, particularly during and after the amulet quest. When he says those initial lines, my Inquisitor is confused because he thought he understood what Dorian wanted, and also thought that Dorian understood what he wanted.

 

If done well, such conversations can add depth to a game romance. But again, the Anders romance was not written that way, so sticking in a scene that has no purpose in the moment seems an unfortunate choice. However, I like that the modder thought to include that for the female Hawke at all. For all I know, there may be some limitations to editing the original scene as it happens in Act 1, so it might be that or nothing.
