Ah, but to stop living with my mother I'd need money. I won't have money until I find a job, and once I have a job and start getting money, i won't need to destroy my computer. And if I destroy my computer, it would make it that much harder to find a job, since most of the job openings I've been finding (four more today, btw) come to me over e-mail.
To get a job you need to get off your lazy ass and stop being a drain on society.

Considering you're 35 years old, still a virgin, and have never had a girl friend...
1) Work out.
2) Make some friends.
3) Finally get fucking laid.

I'm sure glad you have a universal set of hobbies for everyone to live by there chief. If the guy is already having money problems he needs a girl like he needs a bank-account-gobbling python, lost time syndrome or a thieving invisible midget chained to his leg.
This thread is incredibly juvenile at best and downright disgusting at worst. I don't think I've ever agreed with Mightion on anything in my entire posting career so this is not me sticking up for my buddy or anything, but ffs the guy is about as down as someone can get while still being able to read a message board, stop trying to find ways to be unfathomable pricks to him and either try to be friendly about it or just ignore him if you cannot muster a baseline of compassion for anyone who does not fit your unreasonable standard of perfection.

I missed the part where telling someone to quit wasting gravity and do something useful with his life--in the real world--suddenly became juvenile. Granted, there's plenty of juvenile shit going down in this thread, but telling Mightion to quit making excuses and take resposibility for getting a life isn't one of them.

I don't see where I said that pointing out to him, in anything approaching a helpful and friendly manner, that it would be best for him to try harder to find a job and play less WoW was bad. Dragging out some ancient mushy love poem he wrote just to troll him when he's in a bad spot already is juvenile and / or cruel. Insulting him behind a facade of 'tough love' is just as bad.
I'm pretty sure you know more about motivating others than I ever will, being an officer and all, but putting someone you have no personal connection to, or worse someone you have antagonized in the past, on the defensive by insulting them is about the worst way to have your criticism actually accepted. Deth described it pretty well in that other thread I think, their trusted friend yelling at them will make many people think, some random guy on the internet who insults them at any turn anyway insulting them will just affirm their suspicion that he's somewhat of an ass.

Agreed: the poem thing is definitely in the "juvenile shit" category.
On the other hand, unfriendly peer pressure can be even more effective in certain cases than friendly encouragement from friends. Especially in cases where the friendly approach simply seems to nourish the inherent victim mentality, what is there to lose?
Seems to me it'd be even worse just to ignore him and let him self-destruct out of a misplaced desire to avoid being perceived as rude. Peer pressure may not work, but at least one can say one tried, as opposed to ignoring the obvious problem after whispering polite hints failed miserably.

I know you didn't start the threads, but that's not the point. No one could give you grief about your personal situation. . .if they didn't know your personal situation. Once the details are out there, one pretty much has to accept the consequences.

They really have one purpose: they are cheaper than Orc Archers.
You can pump out Orc Warriors until the cows come home and barely get a boost on the Orc Pit veterancy. After four Haradrim Warrior units trained, you have access to the Soldiers of Rhun and the Banner upgrade.
Afterwards, when you get more resources, it's better to just pump out Orc Archers and put them on the Mumakil.

Everything that could possibly help Mightion has already been said, over and over and over again. He won't listen. There's just no reasoning with him.
What's more depressing is that he can't see that he desperately needs psychiatric help. In another two years, he'll be a fictional character on the Shield.

Yeah, the soldiers of Rhun were okay, but I was partial to Mountain Trolls and Drummers together. Unless my oponent had elven archers then I was screwed...
That's why you need a ton of Orcs and Rhuns to absorb the initial blow.
