    I will break it down for you sweetheart.
    • Paragraph 1
    I wish that was the case of bribery, could've hoped for a partial amount of that be invested into the half working serverand the rules were not changed so he can be unbanned since the same rule broken is still there.
    • Paragraph 2
    If staff are seemingly hesitant to speak on matters it's because they do not know the full situation themselves, publicly speaking when you are unaware of a situation yourself will cause more negatives. Furthermore when it comes to generic matters like suggestions I myself and numerous others have said the API plugin is being worked on and is the top priority, there is so much that can be done with one tech.
    • Paragraph 3
    Our staff is welcoming and helpful to low ranked players the same amount as the highest. Yes they have less perks because it is an insentive to go to the next but if you look at recently added or modified perks you will see the lower ranks are the ones that have benifited most in recent times. There are plans for a boost in what players reveive that will benefit high and low ranking players such as gadgets and possibly pets to ensure you get more enjoyment from the money you put towards the server.
    • Paragraph 4
    Yes there are Trello cards and a section in slack for issues on the server, some are able to be fixed immediately and others not so quickly. I will put it into simple terms as to why the API is so important right now, we will be able to implement additions easier without them breaking so much, minigames alone are not possible to add right now for example.
    • Paragraph 5
    We have this super cool feature called a chestshop plugin, this allows players to create stores through signs and chests. We also have a plugin that allows players to create player warps and when buddied up with a players chestshop if the pwarp remains popular you can make a lot of meebles which is the servers currency. Not only that but if you buy and sell prices are liked by most you will have a self sustainable inventory where items are flowing constantly to and from the chest itself. Voting also grants a lot of money so take advantage of it before it's modified! Thought I'd be the first under fire for corruption since I joke about it 24/7 but in all seriousness Cluelessclutz is a nice person and would not do such things due to his morals.

    I'm all fun and games but there is no need to target other children and see no reason to bash those putting time and effort into a server that has minimal investment and do not receive anything in return. I for one continue because there are those play this server as a getaway from problems in life and am happy to dedicate my time on this server to benifited theirs.

    Please stop talking, you're embarrassing yourself because you obviously are very ignorant on this subject.

    From what I could decipher from that headache of a post, you are asking how increasing minimum wage will cause unemployment, I think.

    Basically higher wages = more payment for workers = less employees for same amount of money = less job opportunities = higher unemployment

    I also love these types of threads because you have the people who think they know what they are talking about and the people who actually do.

    Yes it does. If these people aren't getting hired than they aren't working. Dude it's kinda self explanatory.

    Oh boy dude, oh boy. Yes, it can be made into a career. If you think that the people working at McDonald's are there because they love it then I'm the pope. These people work at McDonald's because that is the best job they can get at the time, sorry if they don't have the 6 figure jobs that people are extremely lucky to get due to the many variables that must be right to be able to have those jobs. Sure, those who are underprivileged can work hard and beat the system, but I'm sure that those are the small minority (don't quote me on that).

    Cause sure, that's super easy to do. I'm sure people working jobs like at McDonald's haven't already thought of that.

    Tell that to the mexican immigrant working on a farm for long-ass hours getting paid sometimes below minimum wage.

    Oh and just for laughs...

    Nope.

    Donald Trump exists, and he never thinks.

    I want this to hinge on actual policy, and not insulting.

    I voted for Sanders in my state's primary because I understand that 99% of the things he wants to do will never be done. However, he has the integrity to fight for what he believes in, without waver, for the majority of his life. That cannot be said for any other candidate.

    I think the real positives to Sanders is:

    Reforming Campaign finance.

    - Even if Universal health care is impossible, perhaps his push is enough to change of major corners of the ACA, one namely being allowing medicaid to use it's buying power to negotiate prices.

    - Universal Education is something I think Republicans can get behind, considering they strongly believe that America should be the strongest country in the world. Having an educated population inherently strengthens our country going forward.

    - Infrastructure - Our country is literally falling apart, creating jobs to fix our infrastructure will lead to all sorts of improvements, even in the business world. Better infrastructure leads to lower transportation costs for everyone involved.

    - As a personal note; I'm sick of waging war across the globe, regardless of scale. Our military interventions for nearly 50 years have largely make situations far, far worse.


    Disclaimer: I've already cast my vote for Bernie in MI.

    I remember someone having a debate like this a while back, however I myself have to debate this in school soon and I'd like to see some opinions and get an idea of what the opposing team may say.

    please note none of what I am about to say is in any way intended to be dis respectful towards anyone or any beliefs that may feel offended.

    My opinion, no.
    There is no evidence that states his existence. The words on a man-written book does not suffice. Just because someone wrote something does not make it real. If this were true, hell, sign me up for Hogwarts!

    There are even more reasons. God is known as the all powerful and all knowing. Why does he not give us all the knowledge he knows so we can live in a peaceful society? If he is so powerful, why can he not stop a plane from crashing down? "God works in mysterious ways." Just makes him look like an evil guy. He lets people die because of his "ways"?

    And if he is real, why has he killed more people than the devil himself? God = about 25 million. Lucifer = 60. Just 60. I think Lucifer should be God since he spared humanity more than God himself.

    Those who say that you need faith to 'see' God...faith doesn't help a man regain an arm. Faith does not prevent the death of thousands. Faith causes war. It causes famine, racism, and pure ignorance.

    if you're going to vote, be educated. don't vote based on public opinion/popularity because that means you're nothing but a sheep. Research the candidates before you support them.
    This is the only time you actually quote drumpf when referring to your beliefs, how does he really support what you believe in? How do his plans address these issues? So far he's just said an easily agreeable statement. What's his plan?
    The issue with the shootings is that they aren't done by criminals. They're done by people with pent up aggression who have easy access to guns. Criminals will always have guns, we aren't asking the police to give up theirs. Why do people believe the only way to properly defend oneself is to shoot another person? What are you so afraid of? Why must every citizen be their own body guard, when this idea of being one's own body guard only puts everyone around you at risk? These points aside, nobody is trying to ban guns altogether. Not. One. Candidate. Democrats are just trying to make them less accessible to people who should really not be having them, which are the people who have been shooting up schools and movie theaters.

    On cops: the legal system as a whole needs to be reworked. Corruption and abuse has been occurring at all levels of it. Cops with obvious prejudices and ill motives need to be weeded out, need to be replaced. Their departments which are encouraging the behaviour need to be properly managed and monitored. The court systems being manipulated by money from private corporations need to be cleaned. The events since august 2014 weren't isolated incidents, they happen across the country. The further you look into it, the dirtier it gets.
    You're allowed to personally oppose abortion, but from my assumption, you don't possess a uterus which might require one. Outlawing abortion would not prevent them from happening. Any punishment you might place on getting an abortion won't stop them from happening. When someone doesn't have access to a safe abortion, we end up going back in time. Back to the coat hangers. Abortion is, and always will be, a decision only the person who will be getting the abortion can make. It is not their mother's, father's, sister's, lover's, doctor's, neighbor's, friend's, or legislator's decision, and it definitely isn't yours.

    "Let's see what happens" is not a good strategy when hiring the leader of a country.
    We aren't hiring an entertainer!!! What is he trying to get our attention for??

    Some examples of socialist countries:
    • Denmark
    • Finland
    • Netherlands
    • Canada
    • Sweden
    • Norway
    • Ireland
    • New Zealand
    • Belgium
    What's the issue with socialism? Does it not work? Are the above countries under a dictatorship or something of the sort? Let's compare those above listed with countries with universal healthcare:
    [​IMG] (x)
    how bizarre! they're all there, already doing the thing so many republicans say is impossible. what a concept.

    Or perhaps you're afraid there will be an abuse of power, and we'll have as many people in prison as china?
    [​IMG] (x)
    whoops, we've already got more people in prison than China, and their population is 4.23 times larger than ours!(x)

    So what's the issue with socialism? Just curious.
    you're right! He's had plenty of great ideas, like Trump Airlines, Trump Vodka, Trump Steaks, Trump Mortgage, etc. What has he accomplished?
    I love you x2

    I'm with Bernie, 100%. Quote anything he stands for, and I agree. Try to dig up receipts, I dare you.
