Welcome to Gaia! ::

I need to go in and get the dust off my delicate cpu fan too. It's real problem. I shouldn't have my tower on the floor. It's bad and I know it is, but I don't really have anywhere else to stick it.

I mean, that said... what kind of idiot builds an 800 dollar computer and won't spend a dime on something to keep it on?

This idiot.

I don't overclock, so I'm not likely to burn out my processor from a little dust, but I like things to last as long as possible, and dust is bad for long term health.

There's something intrinsically satisfying about a lot of other so-called games. High scores aren't what attract you to them; the act of playing the game itself is enjoyable enough on its own. Of course, it won't make you crazy addicted and mad, but that's the good thing. Simple, addictive games that revolve around high scores often will not let you be satisfied until you achieve that high score, and until then it's hours of toiling and going crazy.

Arcade games aren't necessarily like that, though. They can be, but most of us just play them for the experience of it, just to see how well we can do or whatever. The thing is, games like Pacman are thrilling and fun so playing it is a good time even if you don't get that high scores. Slowly shifting around numbered tiles... not so much.

I'm down for some brawl, haven't played in forever!

UCH is like the only online game with mic enabled where the atmosphere is really friendly. Probably because a lot of kids play sweatdrop

It's like if Nintendo allowed people to communicate with strangers more online. It's even based on a NIntendo franchise, and has maps from various Nintendo games (mostly EarthBound and Mother 3 though)

I want to trade some TF2 items I'll never wear for some ones I will, but I cannot stand trade servers.

Heh, well, the console version of TF2 isn't very good. It was left as is after it was released. I'd be surprised if there are still even servers for it.
