The amount of things willits says that are absolute rubbish cannot be measured by any instrument yet constructed by modern man.

Amen, brother. 
I'm Not Sure If I Fallow The Argument, 
do you mean that Willits is being dishonest in his statement of the purpose of having the player move slowly in game, or do you mean the idea in its self is poorly conceived? 
Hmmm, Am I Late? 
How long have those "Previous 25" buttons been there? 
Since ~11 Hours Ago 
 
 
Whoa! I coaxed Lunaran to make a post!

HeadThump: I mean that's the dumbest reason ever to make the player slow. It also seems narcissistic. Furthermore, it seems (to me) to be a rather short-sighted and non-linear approach to the gamer's experience. 
Thanks, 
those are valid points. I find the nobby kneed feel of the movement to be clunky, and not visceral and immediate the way Quake controls feel.

BTW, you are getting closer and closer every year. Raleigh to Durham to Greensboro. Next step is my back yard. 
Oh? 
Winstom-Salem is your backyard? 
Boy Howdy! 
I've been making typos all night and I haven't even been drinking. meh.

Oh, Wrong Direction 
I had to look on a map for that one. I unloaded a package a few nights ago going to Summerfield, and since I didn't know where it was, I didn't know if it was a failed delivery or not. 
I Hope It Wasnt 
the Thai porn I ordered. I've been wondering what's holding it up. 
 
And a congratulations to RPG on getting post number ten thousand! A big round of applause for Rob there!

Monitor Trouble 
somthing is wrong with my belinea monitor. whenever there is an application running at a 60hz refresh rate, it suddenly switches to some sort of wide screen mode (image is stretched, sides are off the screen). then i have to shake it a little, knock or sometimes even punch the lower left corner until it switches back to normal. this is really annoying as i don't want to damage it.
it's not a problem with games, since the ati refrash rate override can handle it, but - and this is the most important issue - it happens a lot with quest.
so does anyone know of a way to solve this without smashing the monitor with a slugger? are there maybe additional tools to let dos applications run at a higher refresh rate? 
Well 
one thing I can say is, that when it comes to the point of actually physically hitting something to make it work correctly, especially electrical equipment, you can safely assume that some type of repair is needed, this may be trivial or maybe major, but be assured some form of repair will be required at some point. I however would take myself down to the local PC store in a hasty fashion, and score myself a shinny new beauty, and enjoy the extra wide smile on my dial.

But if physically hitting the thing works for you, and brings you some form of joy, then slug away, I know it works wonders with people you don't like.

Best of luck with it.
