*throws Tootsie Rolls at Max* -- nm - pigby Oct 26, 21:17
So in one catch all Post. Im sure most of us are dissapointed with the new HSX, but are we striking, waiting it out, trying to make it work? -- nm - Matrix Mafia Oct 26, 21:16 19
- I'll continue playing about as often as before, if the usability increases. - psilotum Oct 26, 21:28 2

    - That's cause we is all afeared of change. -- nm - Cuzzin Todd Oct 26, 21:27
    - This has become the forum. Whether people continue to play is another matter. - JaxSean Oct 26, 21:23
- I don't really like the new forums, so I probably won't use them much - not sure yet if I'll keep playing the game - Beryllium Oct 26, 21:19
- I'm offering suggestions and hoping it will all work out in the end. -- nm - ReluctantCynic Oct 26, 21:19
- They had their chance. Those that tested beta told them what would happen. Obviously they could give a shit about us. Done! -- nm - Redmond Oct 26, 21:18
- I never played anymore anyways, but I'm on the fence about restarting hsxworld.com now -- nm - kilbooo Oct 26, 21:18 3

- where was mrs jax? - dogbert183 Oct 26, 21:26 1
  - she's smarter than that. she's not getting anywhere near any tornado-alleys. -- nm - JaxSean Oct 26, 21:30
- Is there a charge for a wheelchair rental? Because maybe it was you and you just don't remember. -- nm - Redmond Oct 26, 21:16 5

- I'd check your credit cards for any surprise charges. - psilotum Oct 26, 21:11 3
  - This seems like the most likely possibility. Why would an identity thief steal JS's credit card number and then earn him HHonors points? -- nm - Mop Oct 26, 21:14 1
    - Identty thieves aren't all bad people. Maybe this one offers some perks along with getting your identity stolen. -- nm - Cuzzin Todd Oct 26, 21:15

- I think more people will try and early-vote than ever before, fearful that they won't get to vote on Nov 4th. - JaxSean Oct 26, 21:01 2
  - If everyone on earth says "Obama" at the same time on Nov. 4th, there will be peace on earth. - Mop Oct 26, 21:04 1
    - I did that Saturday. My vote's been counted, so I'm at peace with it. -- nm - JaxSean Oct 26, 21:05
- in some states, early voting is already accounting for 20% of votes cast so by the time election day rolls around there may only be half of the - pigby Oct 26, 20:56 3

Asian markets are getting shelled. Coming soon to a stock market near you. Anyone have a link for Dow futures? -- nm - Redmond Oct 26, 20:47 6
- I disagree. Down 1-to-4% is pretty good at this point. Nikkei's hovering at 0% change. -- nm - Mop Oct 26, 20:51
- the closest I have is a graph with an arrow pointing down. close enough, right? -- nm - dogbert183 Oct 26, 20:50
