I feel like the next Fallout should incorporate some kind of MMO ideas. Do we really want it to be just a prettier version of 3? What if you could meet other players in hub areas? Complete daily missions and challenges together? What about a six player Vault raid with some kind of boss at the end? Yes, I know Destiny...but am I the only one who sees the appeal of those ideas if they were implemented within the Fallout universe? And if you wanted to play the game completely offline you could do that as well. Just a brainstorm.
Desticle please go. No skinner box for my fallout please.

STAHP
you're continuing it as well >___>
Telling you to stop posting shitty memes and jokes in a thread that's for discussion is continuing you guys posting said shit? Only you can prevent shitposting.
2 posts is bad? Calm down there.
If you hadn't jumped in you wouldn't have other people spamming right now.
Once again, your involvement makes things worse. I see an undeniable pattern with that.
There were more than 2 posts, I suggest counting back these past 11 pages.
Nice assumptions, sad they're wrong and you enjoy ignoring other viewpoints.
Assassin is right. Nuka you're a fucking cunt.
Nuka isn't even part of that conversation you just quoted.

If there's one thing that really annoys me it's when people underestimate the tenacity and ingenuity of humans.
All we have are tenacity and ingenuity. We're fortunate that those make up for us being one of the weakest, slowest, least physically accustomed species among those at the upper portion of the food chain.
Why does being faster, stronger count for shit when those other abilities allowed us basic mastery over a most of the landmass on the planet?
Oh, that has little to do with how physically powerful we are, and more to do with humans fucking a hell of a lot more than most of the other large predators. Seriously, we breed like rabbits, except rabbits don't gang up on gorillas and hippos. Also, we don't run away when one of us is killed, we turn back and kill whatever took one of us down. Few other animals do that.
In short, we could drive them out, but they could never drive us out, even though they could kill us without much trouble if they turned and fought.
Again, try no man made weapons at all. We wouldn't win the fight.
Deci removing our ability to make and use tools is like removing a lion's claws and teeth or a falcons eyesight. It's our natural advantage over other species.

Humans are also pretty good at tracking and endurance running. You ever try chasing an animal? If you're somewhat fit and aim to keep it in your sights instead of actually trying to catch up it'll run out of breath long before you do. Iirc this was what ancient humans did to their prey before we got all comfy and fat.

I think this test is sexist for assuming all women are the same. Seriously though, a lot of these questions are wack. How am I supposed to answer some of this shit? For example Women exaggerate problems they have at work. I'm only given an agree or disagree. There is no correct way to answer this. People are different, some women exaggerate their problems and others don't. The same can be said for men.

There's some shady car places that'll rent to youngins.
Never heard of one, I've never rented a car
So you say.
I could've made an alt here when this site started and be like "hey guys I'm a millionaire check out this selfie of me in my rented Lamborghini" and who exactly is going to say it isn't mine? You supposedly got your money from trading, you can't trade while under the age of 18. And really, there's no such thing as getting some tips and guidance from a pro and getting rich in a year. My dad used to do that and he broke even by the end of the year which is considered a success in that industry for new traders, and Merrill Lynch was going to recruit him.
It's not so much that I care or I'm trying to disprove that you have money or something, but it really doesn't add up.
There's no age limit to play the stock market. You can be 10, theoretically, and invest.
Also, You can make a crazy amount of money, in about 30 minutes. It's complete luck, not saying I got it in that time frame, but it's possible
Uh, yeah there is. You need to be 18 years old.
No you can't. That's a myth. You can make a lot of money and it is indeed fast paced and you can make a lot of money in a small amount of time, but to make millions in 30 minutes, something drastic needs to have happened.
Honestly the fact you don't even know there's an age requirement for trading and you think you can make millions in 39 minutes really isn't leading me to believe you even understand how the economy works, let alone understand trading. Like I said, my dad did this for real and he was great at it. He taught me a lot about it. And I've learned a lot myself, and from what you're saying, you chose trading stocks as your story because it's something the majority of people think is a get rich quick scheme.
There isn't an age limit
The biggest obstacle to buying stocks is age. In every state in the United States, there is a minimum age to buy and sell securities like buy stocksstocks, bonds, etc. This is due to two reasons. The first is because states and brokers alike agree that children and minors generally aren’t capable of making good decisions involving securities and trading assets. (Some adults apparently aren’t, either, but that’s another issue altogether.)
The second is liability exposure. Brokers do not want to be responsible for the (probably poor) financial decisions minors can make through their systems, so they rightfully keep people who aren’t of age from trading.
What is this minimum age? It depends on the state. If you live in California, the District of Columbia, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maine, Michigan, Nevada, New Jersey, South Dakota, Oklahoma, or Virginia, you can’t trade stocks until you reach the age of 18. For every other state, you have to be at least 21 years of age – and brokerages do verify the identity and age of each person attempting to open an account.
You can, however, get what is called a custodial account. This is an account that has the assets in the minor’s name, but the minor’s parents or legal guardians actually administer the account. The only people allowed to place orders for that account are those who are at least 18 years of age (or 21, depending on the state).
Three words, joint brokerage account. Theoretically you can be any age, as long as your paired with someone over the age of 18. Be it a parent or other adult.
Right, so did you do the trading? Who paired up with you? Why? What did you do to make that much money that quickly that you bought a McLaren and a Lambo and have enough to buy a Ferrari?
It's quite an accomplishment and I don't see why you wouldn't brag about how you got it because that's an achievement you should be extremely proud of - if you did the trading and actually made the money and aren't renting cars. Personally I'd be interested to know what you did.
I'm also kind of curious as to why something like this wasn't all over Forbes, Yahoo, et cetera. This would be a pretty big story.
I mean a kid making $300k hit national. Surely someone under the age of 18 making over a million would be even bigger.
I know a bunch of people around my age who are really wealthy by the same means, and you won't find it anywhere. You just have to know them to know. I don't go around preaching this, nor do I really care too. I just talk cars, not business or any of that.
If you hadn't noticed.
Sorry, but this entire thing smells of fish to me.
You really think everyone who makes money gets reported about lol
I'm talking about your entire story.

Almost as stupid as that "split California into seven states" gerrymandering scheme.
Fucking please.
Why the fuck should Norcal folks have to be tied to cities they have no cultural ties to and vote completely different from?
The people elected by the coastal population centers do not represent the interests or the ideals of rural Californians.
You mean the majority doesn't hold the same views as the minority?
No fucking way. I guess in the interest of fairness we should just turn everything over to the interests of the minority though as that's truly how a representative democracy should function.
Because that's exactly what I'm saying.
No, these cities are culturally and politically disconnected from the inner portion of the state, and this spans a big enough geographic area that it is more reasonable to cut California into two or at most three smaller states than to tie these rural people to urban centers they have nothing to do with and want nothing to do with. That is not representation, that is abuse of districting.
If the situation were reversed, and it was something like Austin, a small liberal enclave held down by the conservative areas tied to it, not a single one of you would be opposed to it. But because California is the center of liberal power in the US, you don't want to see anything change, even when there is a clear cultural divide between the coastal and inland portions of the state.
Well sep7agon just ate my long ass post with one of it's stupid errors so fuck typing that up again on a phone. If you want to keep discussing this make another thread on it as it's completely unrelated to the current topic.

I'll admit it was entertaining to see the responses to that from both sides.
It's about to get a whole lot more entertaining since it's going to be on the ballot. Not like it's hard to get something on the ballot though. The number of sigs required is comically low in comparison to the states total population.

Nut jobs shouldnt be let in high positions like that
Brah, lawyer isn't exactly a high position. Anyone with a degree can be one. OT: This would be a violation of the US constitution so even in the near impossible event that it would pass it would end up being over turned. Almost as stupid as that "split California into seven states" gerrymandering scheme.
