  1. i dont give two shits a fuck about english i dont need it for anything. I can talk thats enough. I just need to pass my english course with at least a 70 then im going to trades school where ill never have to do a bit of english ever again and ill be making more money then most people and be living a great life without a good mark in english. I might need english if i were to join a newpaper or some shit but for me i need english for nothing it is pointless to me

     

    You think you don't need a grasp of the English language just because you're going into trades? Do you know how often you'll need to communicate, often via email, with not only potential clients but also employers? What about writing up a resume and cover letter? If you appear as if you can't even be bothered to have grammatically correct sentences people won't give you the light of day.

     

    Not trying to say that everyone needs to know how to effectively argue a point with sources in a lengthy term paper, that is a skill learned over time, but having an understand of a language you're expected to use is crucial in everyday life.

  2. Are MS' getting graded any faster than GFX? Right now I count 30 open GFX topics. Some still have no grades at all on them. This is getting to be a bit ridiculous by this point with things still not fully graded after 10 or more days. It used to be that you'd never see more than 1 or 2 GFX left un-graded at the end of a given week and now we're lucky to get 5 graded fully the entire time. Do we not have enough graders or have people just become lazy?

  3. Meant I got COD and BF from futureshop from the trade promo last week trade any old game to get COD, BF or AC.

     

    Then EB Games has the upgrade 360 copy to 1 for 9.99$

    Ah, okay, that makes more sense.

     

    I wish I would have picked up a second copy for Ghosts at the futurehsop event. Having to do online to get 4 player extinction is a pain when you don't want to play with randoms and only have one copy.

  4. Forza and Dead Rising 3 is what I'll be getting plus upgrading my cod and BF from future shop promo. Anyone else getting a X1 this Friday?

    That's not a futureshop promo, at least if you're talking about the $10 next-gen upgrade. It's just on some games bought before the next-gen launch (Aka Ghosts, BF4 and AC4)

     

    Either way I'm going with a PS4 when I get money for it. Been with Sony since the PS1 and have never really seen a reason to think the Xbox would better suite my needs.

  5. So basically, if I'm reading this correct, what you want to do is:

    1) Anyone can write mag articles and PM them to you.

    2) If you have enough articles for a mag one is made and the writers are paid 7 TPE.

    3) If you do not have enough the article is used in the following week. The writer gets paid for the week they wrote the article but need to write another article or a normal PT for the week it's published.

     

    Tried to make it sound easier but I think I may have made it sound more complicated. It's an easy concept (if I understand it) but tricky to explain.

     

    Question though, where would this put us GFX VHLM Mag crew? Would that be open as well or would we still be employed and just do GFX based on the submissions you receive? If the latter, when would the deadline for submissions be since we need some time to get things made.

  6. I am still checking in here, in case anyone worried I disappeared. Just haven't been seeing anything posted so I've been doing a regular GFX instead of a cover. I feel like we gotta get back into our groove a bit. Once we get the rhythm back we'll be fine.

  7. Boragina says he'll likely be staying in QC. If they win the cup he'll be more apt to leave though. He did say he's keeping us open as an option if he is going to leave.

     

    Park said we're in his top 3 but he's pretty inactive these days.

     

    Stamkos said that he will highly consider Cologne and although he doesn't consider himself a large FA he would enjoy playing here.

  8. Gonna send out a PM to all the guys you mentioned Kendrick. I'll see if we can lure a few of them over.

     

    Edit: Sandow and Speedster either never came over or have different usernames here so I couldn't get a message out to them. Sent one to everyone else though.

  9. MSBS in Ghosts needs to be patched big time. I don't think I've had such OP bursts since CoD 4 haha. Finally getting used to some guns though (MSBS, AK-12, Snipers) so I've gone from raging and dying a shit-ton to leading every game and barely going below 2.0 k/d. Amplify and silencers make a huge difference haha

  10. The issue I see with that logo is regular use. Yes, the lime colour looks amazing on those dark jerseys. However, aside from Jersey changes (which people almost never do, especially for MS' where the whole image would be used) you basically never see the jersey's in the VHL. You do, however, see the logos all over the board.

     

    With a white background on the forum itself I fear the contrast of that lime colour would really hurt the quality of our logo.

     

    With that said, I do prefer it, especially on those jerseys. Gives our logo a more modern, vibrant kick. I'm just concerned about how it would appear on the forum itself.

  11. Graphics portion has been done for the past like 3 weeks (so says Koradek). Waiting on the coding I believe.

    I was only sent a few images but for the most part he didn’t need anything else I don’t think.

     

    Unfortunately a combination of different ways in which the site is coded, a lack of free time on my part and a very good (but very complicated) mockup things have hit a bit of a standstill.

     

    I’m trying to work with one Higgins found / made / however it showed up and see if I can make enough modifications to get it close to what we’re looking for. It’s a challenge though when you just master the way one site is coded and then get completely thrown off by a different style which seems to offer significantly less flexibility. We may have to make a few compromises between the mockup and the actual skin.

     

    I am aware of how long this process is taking though and I won’t be taking any pay for the work when it does get finished on account of that fact.

  12. Sorry for disappearing on the skin front. A combination of inexperience with this code, a very complex mockup (not Kora’s fault, he made it amazing, just hard to code) and a general lack of free time has been making it tricky. I’ll try and talk with Higgins about maybe finding one we can make some significant modifications to which should give us essentially a custom skin but with a little bit of ease on the coding side.

  13. Had one of these topics on the old site, meant to bring it over here sooner.

     

    Whenever I make a sig for an express teammate I’ll drop it in here so if you want to where it you can. So far on this site I have:
