Topic: General Gaming / .sol files Essentially, it’s the file the flash games save on your directory that shows how far you’ve got, by using numbers for statistics such as “highest level reached”, “highest score”, etc, and a 1 or 0 (1 being beaten 0 being not completed) for individual things like “Cave of Trial 1 completed” and such. (Correct me if I’m wrong though.) |

Topic: Serious Discussion / Happiness in another's death Originally posted by Deathreape98: People (That I know IRL) don’t feel happy that another person died because it’s just wrong. It’s morally wrong. It’s like thinking that a murder you recently committed was justified. It just doesn’t belong and it’s not the right way of thinking. There really isn’t another reason other than it’s just wrong. Like killing another human being, you can’t really give me a reason why it’s wrong, it just is. |

Topic: Serious Discussion / Happiness in another's death I’ve noticed a few people saying they would be happy if someone died because it would end that person’s constant suffering and allow them to move on to a “better place”. I think the thread creator was talking about less of a religious aspect, and more of a ‘physical’ one.
And would you be happy if that person died, not because he no longer is a threat to anyone, but because he no longer has to rot in prison? No, you don’t ‘feel sorry’ for the people who did wrong to you, at least, to the extremes of killing of a family member or harming you/traumatising you in a severe way. (I’m sorry if I’m not making sense here, I’m very tired. :X) In short, I think this thread is directed not to family members that you are happy for them passing on to a better place, but is directed to serial killers, rapists, and other threats to society. And as I’ve said numerous times above, in my mind, what people perceive as “being happy another is dead”, is actually “being happy they are no longer a threat”. At least, that’s how I think. |

Like what? And that’s what the death penalty is for: keep the citizens safe—“remove the threat”. |

Topic: General Gaming / chrono cross? So, basically, you’re looking for any turn-based strategy games? Here’s a few, see if any of these work for you: Pokemon (It’s turn based, at least.) Advance Wars Any RTS (They aren’t turn-based, but they are strategy.) (Examples of RTS are Halo Wars, Command and Conquer, etc) Most Final Fantasy games (especially the early ones) Any console-styleRPG. |

Topic: Off-topic / Pay Our Respects Just to end the debate about people being happy about another’s death, deathreape has kindly created a thread in the Serious Discussion forums about that same topic, and here is the link if you’d like to talk about that: Happiness from another’s death Now, on topic. :) |

Topic: Serious Discussion / Happiness in another's death That’s exactly the thing, though. No one is truly ‘scum’. Everyone’s definition of ‘scum’ differs. For example, you think a drunkard beggar is scum, while I think there really is no one who is ‘scum’. And in response to your second paragraph… What I’m trying to say is (and I don’t know if I can put it into any other words), when a bad person (or, by your standards, ‘scum’) gets killed/dies, you aren’t actually happy that that person no longer walks the Earth. You may think that’s what you’re thinking, but really you are happy that the person can no longer do the bad things he has done previously. They don’t give the death penalty just because they don’t have any more jail room. In fact, why do you think they have jail? To teach people a lesson to see if they will become better and if they don’t then the government has no other option except to remove the threat. |

Topic: Serious Discussion / Happiness in another's death Originally posted by Deathreape98: Yes they can be compared. They are both human beings with goals and aspirations. Their lives went in seperate directions, and the drunkard begger didn’t make the best decisions, but they are still human beings and deserve to be treated as such. (now in response to death’s edit) If a judge is honestly (and even subconciously) happy about a criminal’s death, then they don’t deserve to be in a position of so much power. Like I’ve said before, you may perceive it as being happy that person is dead, but you are really thinking “I’m happy that person is no longer a threat.” If, hypothetically, a new drug which would make any person which it was given to a good person who would never damage or do anything against society (kill, rape, etc) again was developed, would that not be preferable to the death penalty? (assuming, of course, they don’t give the drug to every human being at birth) |

Topic: Serious Discussion / Happiness in another's death Originally posted by Deathreape98: When I kill a fly buzzing around my head, I’m not thinking “Huzzah, a creature died!”. You kill the fly to stop the annoyance, not just so it will be dead. The same can be applied to the death penalty, but on a greater scale. They must kill the person if that person refuses to change their ways, but that’s not to say the executor/judge is happy about the choice. |

Topic: Serious Discussion / Happiness in another's death Wow, you really weren’t kidding when you said this was going in SD, were you? xD Anyway, as I said in the thread in the Kongregate section, No. You should never be happy that someone is dead. You can be happy that the person will no longer be a source of trouble and whatnot, but you shouldn’t be happy they are dead.
He helped conceive you, didn’t he? That should be contribution enough, even if only in your eyes. |

Topic: Off-topic / Pay Our Respects Originally posted by Deathreape98: No. There’s a difference between “I’m happy that that person is no longer a threat to me”/“I’m happy that person won’t harm another person”, and “I’m happy that person is dead”. You should never be happy a person is dead. It’s just not right. |

Topic: Off-topic / Pay Our Respects Ach, I guess I sounded pretty one-sided in my previous post. I wasn’t trying to get anyone to think of only the good things that Michael did, but rather to see both ends of the spectrum. :/ I dont know why the post came out so one-sided, maybe just because dd790’s post was kind of insulting to the man. Or it could just be me, the dead isn’t one of my favorite subjects to talk about.
What I mean by dd790 being “insulting” to MJ was that you should never really be happy that someone died; When a person passes away it never really is a “good thing”. I see Alci’s points though (regarding the “disprespect to the living”), and I agree. |

I mean it lags on games like Nethack. The computer I’m using now is brand spanking new, but the internet connection is closer to crap than any other provider I’ve ever used. Let me tell you this now: NetZero = Not a Flash gamer’s friend. :( EDIT: Heh, wow. Just realized how completely random this post was. xP |
