I'm not one of the best Artists,.. but I am one of the more generous ones, and that leads to confusion. But hey thanks, nice to know I got another fan out there.

This thread is under mafia control by me, bmaczero, INH and maybe Keo C. Anyone else trying to get points will only endanger their well-being.

Speaking of which, we're going to have to hit DB PROgrammer pretty darn hard this weekend. Are you guys open?

Oh, and you may notice that I've taken off the stats of inactive people (for my sanity and TGC's bandwidth). I'm still keeping them though, so if they post again I will reactivate them.

Speaking of nonsense,.. here is my definition of the word 'Babble'

To express ones thoughts and opinions without the intent of educating the reader or listener. To verbosely go where no one dared to go. To utterly overflow the listener's brain with useless information and in doing so lull them to sleep.

A successful 'Babbler' is one who is always surrounded by the sounds of deep rumbling snores and heavy breathing.

Please refrain from 'Babbling' if nearby people are holding dangerous items that if they should loose their grip upon might cause serious damage or harm. (cigarettes and hand grenades are good examples of this) Also do not 'Babble' near pool side if children are in the water.

hmm, where was I? oh yes Speaking of nonsense...

LOL

A group of 3 programmers are given the task to go fetch some bananas from way up top of the nearby coconut palm tree.

The Microsoft programmer immediately begins to erect a complicated scaffolding unit to allow the worker to safely climb to the top of the coconut palm tree to get the bananas.

The Brilliant C++ Programmer examines the task at hand and simply instructs the worker to climb the coconut palm tree to fetch the bananas.

How do you think the The DarkBasic Professional Programmer would solve this assignment?

Muahahahaha Cheers!

Depends.

If he was really good he would tell the worker to climb the tree and get a coconut, then make it into a memblock and manipulate the vertices so it looks like a banana.

If he was not so good he would ponder for a little while and then give up, realizing there's no way he can get a banana out of a coconut tree.

If he was a complete noob he would either give up and hang around on Geek Culture, talking about his girlfriend, or pester the Microsoft and C++ coders to "gimme teh codez pls."

The DB programmer would chop the tree. He's not so concerned about the approach, as long as the result is the same.
