(i'm gonna create a Written News Broadcast. deal with it)

My Name is Kent Rolphana. Here is the evening news

Nov 30:
Today, super-mega tech giant Mango released their newest multi-purpose device, the Personal Atomizer Launch System. The PALS, as Mango-cultists commonly refer to the device, is a handheld device in which the user can make an object break down to a molecular level for easy transport. One user, who is a self-employed Merchant, says the device is "Perfect for anyone needing to move an otherwise costly service." First Day sales were record high as it surpassed $723 billion at the end of the Day. While Focks Industries is somewhat lacking in decent portable MPDs (multi-purpose devices), FI Founder Cantana Focks released a statement saying "Our primary business is Commodity and Stock. Though our business ventures with Mango are still strong, we are looking to invest more resources into a new R&D division." When asked about what sort of products they were thinking of, Mr. Focks declined to comment.

In Sports news, The New London Ligers dominated the Kyushu Kotton Rabits in BattleBall 24-14. The Ligers will move into the next Round of the Stuttgart Open where they face the current Rheinland Champions Dresden Reapers in the Semi Finals. The winner of this Open will go to Compete in the Sector wide Tournament, the Sirius Champion Royale. The Royale began in 363 AS as a small competition between Cambridge University and longtime rival University of New Tokyo. Since then, the sport has evolved into the most watched sport since Football of the 21st Century AD.

This is Kent Rolphana until next time.

As Founder and Chief of Security of Focks Industries, I'd like to welcome you to the world of Law Enforcement

Unfortunately, due to Board-Approved budget cuts, Focks Industries Security, and all payroll employees are taking indefinite Leave of Absence. during this time, Focks Industries Security will no longer be able to aid in Galaxy-wide security operations.

However, The Board was able to keep 85% of other departments (along with Security, the IT Department had to be cut from the annual budget). This will allow FI Shipping and Stock Operations in the Sirius Stock Exchange and Altair Index to running. Stockholders, both Private and Government will not be affected by the budget cuts. The Board and I want to achieve a 200% increase in revenue by the end of the fiscal year.

Again, I wish you the best of luck keeping the Sirius sector safe. Good Luck out there

@ Huor: Manufacturing (machine shop) or anything in the IT industry including Call Centers. Colorado offers tax breaks to companies that move their Headquarters here so theres call center jobs all over. unfortunately, the lack of a car makes those ambitions really limited

@AndreasK: i Applied for Social Security and i'm just waiting for them to get back to me. another few months is when i should hear something. i'm on food stamps. my family isn't going to help....anymore. and i smoke weed. Weed isnt a drug. especially now that's it's legal for those over 21 years old in Colorado (regulated like Alcohol). and it will be a long while before i'm in the Navy's weight range for my height (i think it's like a max of 190 lbs for someone 5'7". otherwise i'd be in the Navy already.

husker: um....i already owe two banks, Paypal, and Comcast money...fml

Michael: thanks

Daywalker: jobs are hard to find and hard to keep for me. the lack of a car makes job selection very very limited. i also have a hard time managing my schedule so two jobs would be difficult.

anywho, the people at the leasing office are kicking me out of their business center. lates!

what's up? i've been off the grid lately but i'm still around

i want a computer...or laptop. capable of playing CF at the least...fml and being in a shitty situation i.e gonna be homeless after january

and for those who say "well get a job" even if i got a job tomorrow, i wouldn't be able to be financially stable in time to support myself after January. if someone can hook me up with a full time job making $12/hour or more, only THEN is there a slight chance of being financially stable

so yeah

@ Marauder no, I derped on the HTMLing. It's a quote from OP saying something about a Discovery dev using some stuff from CF without permission

@OP if its a kid,, wouldn't it be way easier to say "well, don't do it again or else" then let it go? I agree, what kid would know about copyright infringement? I mean, as long as he credited you for xyz files, then no harm done...right?

@CF stop staring at my nonsense! Get on the server and blow shit up!

[Quote]And right at the moment i am unfortunately forced to deal with a discovery server which has taken countless of 3d models, audio files, textures and other stuff from Crossfire without having permission.[/quote ]

*sniff sniff* I smell a lawsuit

This just proves CF>Disco. Part of me wants CF to get back on it's feet and the other part says "its not gonna happen"

Like I said, if I had a computer, I'd put my unfathomable amounts of time into making CF better in some way.

I feel this September 30th deadline isnt going to stir up any drastic changes that will save the server short OP winning the lottery. Even if he did, he wouldn't put money into something that's not going to be utilized.

I would love to spend my unfathomable amounts of free time on the server kicking rat butt and fun RP stuff. However due to the lack of a rig let alone a stable inet connection, I'm being forced into another hiatus (even on Facebook) I really wish people could realize there's more to this game than PvP and taxing.

I hope the forums don't shut down. I enjoy conversing here. But I definitely will be a very unhappy player if CF ends up closing down.

OP has every right on this decision. "Its not fair" is an invalid excuse to whoever might think it. You didn't play the game, OP won't support inactivity. Sounds fair to me...

well...unless you can tell me how to send the computer (only) internationally for dirt cheap, i'm open to suggestions. but keep in mind the that shipping cost will just be added to the cost of the computer ($550 + $X.XX for shipping)

only because i'm dirt poor. hence selling the computer

Quote from horatio's ego

wow, so much info portalearth, thanks soooo much for your input

you are quite welcome Lieutenant Sarcasm

i don't want any more DLC

I WANT MMO!!!
wait...if Shepard and Harbinger had a kid... how could that even work? i mean...where's he gonna put it in?

Quote from horatio's ego

about 2.0 release, i need to clear out my schedule for 10 days to see whats behind the coalition hypergate

when it's ready

new development. i can't find a ride to the damn train station. so my leave for california is cancelled.

no matter, i will make it in the near future (within a few months)

Mass Effect is ended.

that's not official either. Bioware states this is only the end of Shepards story. granted, they haven't confirmed nor denyed an MMO or the story of someone else in the ME universe, i don't think they're going to let an epic such as Mass Effect end forever and ever

hell, look at Halo. the first game was in 2001 and they're making Halo 4 eleven years later still. Halo has a universe and fanbase like Mass Effect. Both has animated features (ME's is in the makes) they have books, merch, games, fan clubs, booths at gaming conventions like E3 and Comicon. everyone though it was the end of Halo at Halo 3, but Bungie made the ending with a "what the fuck" ending...just like ME3. Halo continued with ODST and Reach. it's not like they're going to stop at those. Halo is too big an empire and too big a money just to quit due to the story line. i predict Mass Effect is going to be no different. there's a TV series in the making and i'm CERTAIN theres going to be a game in the future. maybe not about shepard, but it's too epic a storyline and a massive fanbase and too big a money maker (for Bioware and EA respectively) to just stop at Shepard piled under rubble and taking a breath in. no one in their right mind would end such a series with that

and you call yourself a fan...*shakes head*

so, because i'm not getting anywhere with my life here in colorado, i've decided that i'm going to force myself to turn my life around by heading to California where i got not support other than friends and my wits

the only problems i have is being able to transport my computer via train with me so i can give it to the guy i'm selling it to/paying for my train ticket out there. not only that, nobody thinks i'm going to turn my life around and therefore won't even take me to the train station which is 45 minutes away in Denver

so, i'm leaving the CF and SWAT community once again, but this time instead of a Joint Operations Tournament, it's to get my life turned around.

i had good fights and good times. later

i leave saturday hopefully

i think he represents someone who the story of "The Shepard" was passed down from generation to generation. clearly they aren't in the Sol system, maybe they're Kai's and one is Elder Kai talking to Supreme Kai Kubito

bonus if you know the reference

i think you misunderstand. i think that the ending was intentionally written that way, and due to the ignant population of gamers (a good 80-85% just played through the game without paying too much attention, but i really wouldn't know) went into uproar due to the plot holes. choosing to destroy the reapers is the only ending you get that shows shepard (or who we presume is shepard) taking a breath in. yes it's contradictory that soveregin wasted Shepard, but still managed to get aboard the citadel, activate the catalyst blah blah blah...

because Bioware actually gives a damn about it's playerbase. there aren't too many companies that will do that. not so much forced as it was, how you put it "fans wanted answers"

now since my game is broken, and i don't feel like waiting to get it fixed when my internet goes faster, please humor me and tell me how the Reapers attempts to indoctrinate Shepard are disproven in the Extended cut.

in a PM though

i haven't been able to play the Extended Cut. my copy of ME3 is broken until i get my internet fast again (something like Aug 6th or 7th)

do you really think that Bioware made some DLC to disprove something they put SO MUCH blood, sweat, tears, time and effort into? seriously bruh, i don't see how you can say the director's cut (i'm assuming you mean collectors edition or the most expensive version of the game)

you crazy man...

so, the title got you curious. i have found a video on youtube (well was shown to me) that makes sense of the ME3 endings and doesn't make it suck so much

if you have an hour or so to kill, i recommend you watch this
