    On a serious note, I do not indulge in vegetarianism. Humans are omnivores; we need vegetables, don't get me wrong, but we also need meat. I've never really heard the argument as to why meat is bad for you. If someone here is a vegetarian or knows about the logic behind said habits, I'd like to hear what they believe about meat.

    It's not that 'meat is bad for you'. I don't believe that vegetarianism makes you healthier, what you eat makes you healthier and you can be both unhealthy and healthy on a vegetarian and meat-eating diet. Anyway, my reasons behind becoming a vegetarian are mostly ethical, but also partially environmental. Personally I can't justify eating a 99p McDonald's hamburger, for a sentient being's life, spent caged up, in pain, without any freedom and killed a short period into their lives. It doesn't seem fair, the idea of eating meat isn't bad, but we don't need meat for survival and it's a waste of an animals life and resources. It takes a huge amount of resources and physical space to rear livestock and it's just not a sustainable way of eating in the long term with such a fast growing population. If anyone is interested in the environmental side of it all I'd suggest the documentary 'Cowspiracy' on Netflix.

    As pescitarian, which is like a veggie that eats fish (a shit one at that),  I thought I'd chime in.

    I don't eat meat out of ethical reasons, I don't disagree with eating meat altogether, just the way animals are bred and kept in captivity. A sentient being shouldn't be born in awful conditions, kept there for its entire life, and then killed just for a 99p Hamburger, it feels wrong. Eating meat out of survival, growing your own livestock or hunting for meat seems pretty necessary and important.

    There's also a bunch of environmental issues caused by the livestock and cattle industry.

    I get frustrated at vegetarians who are annoying or boastful about them eating meat, as if they're better people morally for avoiding meat than anyone else, or if people are obnoxious about being vegetarian and pressure other people into their views. On the other hand people waving meat in front of me purposefully, or trying to persuade me to 'just try a little bit', or 'it's already dead' are equally annoying.

    You've managed to be convicted of being a undercover valve agent in the /r/globaloffensive community @Revan The Dragon (Read the bottom bit ye) :spooky::spooky:

    I guess it's always nice to see them trying to make as many guns viable as possible, and a change to the R8 is a step in the right direction, although I'm not sure if the changes are particularly good.
     

    New Friends, Requests, Lobbies and Teammates thing seems pretty funky and useful.

    I'd give myself good chances against anyone 1v1 on Age Of Empires 3 if anyone wants a challenge.

    I had like 1500 wins to 100 loses on Fifa 12 or something crazy like that back in 2012, so I guess that as well.

    I'd hope to think I'm an all rounder so idk.

    just to have a good physique, not really sure. 6 pack for sure, so core i guess, but also want good upper body

    When I joined my gym they gave me a full program on all the basic equipment, and asked me what I wanted and created a basic program like that. It might be the same if you join yours. I'm not sure you'll want to start out straight away with the heavy compound lifts (deadlift etc). I then started substituting the machines for free weights (shoulder press machine for OHP) which is how I did it, but idk about your gym so...

    not trying to undermine Liutvi's advice, he'll know a world more than me, just that I didn't feel very confident to begin with.

    Probably get roasted for posting in this thread but whatever.

    Joined my gym in mid December of last year because I wasn't really happy with the shape of my body or my level of fitness. I started out by doing mostly cardio, but realized it wasn't helping me grow in the way I wanted to, so I slowly reduced the amount of cardio I was doing until I completely cut it out, I still play rugby in my free time which is hopefully enough cardio. I've looked at a couple of different programs, starting out with the one the gym recommended me, then doing a full body beginners one I found online, and then I started doing a 4 day upper lower split (https://forums.lylemcdonald.com/showthread.php?t=1696), and adapted it to add more shoulders and removing deadlifts because I'm a bit of a pussy.

    (I know this might not make sense but it's not really for you lol)

    As time has gone by I realized that I wasn't really into the bodybuilder's physique, and have been looking at body weight exercises because I prefer the physique, so I'm going to slowly start substituting weight exercises for body weight ones, starting by completely swapping curls for chin ups, and tricep dips for extensions.

    Any help or advice is greatly appreciated. xxx

    Don't judge me I'm weak and small.

    Ban Request:

    Player Name: Specky The Smurf / See you on the forms

    SteamID: STEAM_0:0:176006423

    Why should he be banned: Bullying of other players, spamming chat, extreme toxicity. Ask anyone on the server at the time and they'll tell you he was pretty horrid. 

    Evidence:

    Regardless of whether Jailbreak is dying or not, there is no problem in keeping more players playing Jailbreak. 

    I often see on Jailbreak, people being horrible, or downright bullying newer players, something that Popey was very good at dealing with. I think moderators and admins need to stamp down on the bullying of other players. It's the little things that makes outbreak so great, and people aren't going to want to play if they're abused by others.

    I think a cool idea (which has been suggested before in the long distance past - but never really pursued) is to create some competitive teams to play against other communities. We love our CS:GO competitive gathers, and league competitive gathers - why not make some teams to represent OB?

     

    This is a really good idea, I'd love to be able to help with this, I know a few people from other communities.

    -Getting the people who play jailbreak more involved and making them feel welcome instead of making them a meme (Revan, Atzul, etc)

    I feel like as a community we should push Jailbreak regulars to become more involved, and make them feel wanted and apart of something. Pretty much everyone was a Jailbreak regular at one point. (Obviously I don't know that much about forming an online community as the admins do, but that's from my perspective.)

    I also think something new and fresh is probably a good idea, jailbreak can be taxing and repetitive, and having somewhere else where you can play with OB would be pretty cool, even if it was something like a minecraft server. I'm a massive fan of minigames courses.
