All the ones I know have the stupid policy against blacklisting players, or any sort of public lists of bad players. Even though I know (from my experience with smaller communities) that it's very possible to determine that some people are jerks who leave constantly, and some people are very very reliable, and will never abandon a game, and will give notice if they can't continue. I'd like to join one that keeps such lists well, so as to be able to enjoy games without players disappearing. | ||

Denmark, Belgium, Spain, and all the other kingdoms that are still around don't call themselves great. THis video should explain everything you need to know about Great Britan/United Kingdom/England | ||

If you are talking about a forum with a wide range of views, I would say Team Liquid is probably the best despite what you may think at times. If you want to go to a forum for people with a specific political affiliation, there are plenty. | ||

-How long would it take to make a primitive computer starting from complete scratch, (no human tools,) but all the resources, physically like rocks and minerals and such at a groups disposal. 10 years? Or maybe something simpler like making a Car? | ||

+ Show Spoiler + ![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/VGWXsk1.jpg) You'd have to be superhuman to have the reflexes to be able to create a computer out of rocks and minerals. That's why we have machines that do that. Afaik, computers are built by computers, which in turn were also created by computers as technology progressed. I don't think you'd be able to build a computer without building computers before that to help create it. So you wouldn't be able to do that without using "human tools." Cars I assume you'd have a better time with if you knew how to make them. I think you'd just need a lot of molds to pour metal into, then you could attach each piece when they're all finished. Not really a time limit, as you say you have all the resources necessary physically, so you don't have to look for anything. You can just create a blast furnace and melt everything yourself, so it really just takes as long as how hard you're willing to work. | ||

Mostly your definition of computer, and the amount of people you have working on it. Probably more reasonable to talk manhours instead of just time | ||
