    <body>I've personally never heard anyone ever say this on the internet. EVER!

Honestly, if you're Christian, interpret the Bible, try to look at it in a metaphorical sense.</body>

Hmm... I think that does help. If you are implying that beauty is relative to perspective, I had pretty much figured that out. But to consider everything being something pretty to someone on Earth is a fair concept.</body>

    <body>Hello SD.

What is beauty? As I was being bombarded with insults from Middle Schoolers, and losing my hearing to Elementary ones, I decided to close out reality and simply look out onto the world. While the bus was passing through field after barren field, the expanses started to glow with a shimmer of reflection from the sunset. This got me thinking: what can change a wasteland into something poetic? The beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and I began to question my own perspective on life. I have a simple question. Why can't we appreciate easily understood things, and not try to comprehend complex artwork?</body>

    <body>&lt;blockquote&gt;Long-term, we&#8217;d all prefer Kongregate remain financially viable, instead of having to close down due to lack of money.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Yes, I'm not saying that I want them to lose money, quite the opposite. But I just get a bit annoyed with ad campaigns following each other so closely.

&lt;blockquote&gt;Certainly a lot better than your annoying flashy epilepsy avatar :\&lt;/blockquote&gt;

I hate epileptics, deal with it.

&lt;blockquote&gt;Since when does 2 major game promotions is bigger than 20,554 2.0avg+ games?&lt;/blockquote&gt;

It doesn't, but every game has ads. A better way to compare the major promotions would be comparing them to the games originating on Kong that have become well played throughout the online gaming comunity.

&lt;blockquote&gt;Oh my god! Kongregate is getting money while providing us with fun things to do! That&#8217;s so scary! D:&lt;/blockquote&gt;

That's not what would scare me, what I find irritating is that I'm only here because I have the ability to click on ads.</body>

    <body>Okay dami. I understand that the ads are what make Kong possible, and I'm fine with that. But the thing is, I've been feeling like it's rapid fire on the ad-based updates. Infected month was OK but was just a giant ad campaign for L4D2, which I'm fine with. Although the infected month is hardly (or isn't) over yet, but we've already started the next big ad campaign. I'm glad Kong is able to make money through ad revenue, but the advertisements are starting to clog up the site, making it feel like a billboard with less emphasis on games, and more emphasis on pulling in the cash. Yes, I understand that Kong is a business, but the product is feeling more and more like ad than game.</body>

    <body>&lt;blockquote&gt;I think it brings in more than those it scares off, proven by the increased numbers of people playing/seen over the weekend, consequently you&#8217;re going to see more not less of this.&lt;/blockquote&gt;


I understand, but I'm looking long-term. Yes, it's fun and interesting once in a while, but when we lose all consistency on Kong, we lose what makes it a great site. I enjoyed L4D2 month at first, but after a while it got boring having an avatar everyone else has. I guess the new group badges would be a good idea, and possibly a fun addition to the badge system, but having everything sponsored turns the community to something football-esque. Sure, Kong's a great site and having them making money makes me happy, but when I feel like the same about playing flash as I do about watching TV (sick of commercials and that any enjoyment is going away), it makes me sad.</body>

    <body>While yes, I understand that pretty much all of Kong's revenue comes from advertisement, I've started to feel like Kongregate is beginning to be used primarily as a place for ads and secondarily as a place for games. An event here and there is a welcome change from the usual normal stuff, but it's starting to look like it's going one after the other with events that are sponsored by another game, one that costs money and is used on a platform other than flash. I'm not sure if it's just going to be a now-and-then type of thing, or if it's a continual cycle of what title is going to use Kong next, but overusing this feature will scare off many of those in the community. If Kong does this once in a while, it's something I celebrate and will be happy about, but if it's a monthly cycle, it'll make it the norm, and completely uninteresting.</body>

    <body>I start off by using Korea as a staging ground for an assault on China. (Japan already controlled Korea before the war). Taking the Northern part of China, I begin to move south. Slowly, I'm able to take over most of the country. After I'm able to hold the Chinese in the same way we've been holding Korea, I begin my assault on Tibet. Being that its people are for the most part spread out, I simply move into the rural areas to start shipping the resources there, and simply defending the mines, refineries, and other things to help fuel the war. (Remember, if I use Chinese labor with a decent pay, that can make the Chinese more loyal to us.) After 2 to 3 years of peace, used to produce Aircraft and a Navy, I begin to launch an assault into Indochina. I start with Vietnam and Laos, using volunteer soldiers from China and the Homeland. Beginning with a bombing strike on Hanoi, and fire from ships on the coast, Northern Vietnam is able to fall, due to a fairly total war strategy, and then I begin to attack Laos, sending small ships onto the main rivers, and setting up artillery bases there. At this point I start a campaign to take Burma and Thailand. After this, my men invade Cambodia and finally finish off Vietnam. Finally, I head south to Malaysia and Indonesia. Given that I have a superior navy, a simple island hopping war gives me control over the region.

Now I finally reach Australia. I begin the assault on a continent by stationing Aircraft Carriers with a small escort to the East, and battleships with transports to the west. Almost simultaneously, I bomb the balls out of the eastern coast, while landing soldiers to the west. Once the east lay in ruins, and we control the west, I simply hold what I have, and let the desert swallow anybody who tried to run.

Now India is taken in a similar way. Bombing and landing troops.

I got tired of writing, but so far that's what I got...</body>
