…Internet forums need better behavior?

In the AOL era, forums and chat rooms were the place to be.

However, as Facebook and MySpace began sucking up everyone’s extra time, forums and chat rooms were suddenly slotted under poking and biting chumps on the Internet order of importance scale.

Fortunately, the forum has remained a vital source of information for some, and because of this, a set of laws and rules has slowly developed to make them more enjoyable.

Unfortunately, not everyone follows these rules, and internet anonymity means that there’s always someone who wants to ruin everyone else’s good time. If that someone happens to be you, then be sure to watch the following video for a quick lesson on How To Behave On An Internet Forum.

Pwned.

And from the same guy, and equally funny video titled “How To Ruin Xbox Live For Everyone Else”:

…Threadlemanss lets you race other Threadless fans?

Threadless is going to be hosting a Pinewood Derby race called the Threadlemanss 48 Heures Derby, and it’s your chance to speed your way to a stylish victory.

Anyone can design and submit a car, and then the Threadless staff will race them on May 16-17.

First through Fourth place will each receive Threadless gift certificate, and the “Best in Show” award (the best looking car, though not necessarily the fastest) will also receive a GC.

There’s a few rules to follow, so be sure to check out the site, but other than that, it’s up to you.

…You should play the game?

Rules Of The GameIf you want to play the Game, you’ve got to know the Rules.

Neill Strauss lives by that motto, and he definitely knows how to play the game. Thankfully, with “Rules of the Game”, he also wants to teach you the rules so that you can play the game as well.

More than just a sequel, “Rules of the Game” is actually a pair of books.

The first, called “The Stylelife Challenge”, shows you how to master the game in just 30 days. It’s the ultimate guide to landing the woman of your dreams, and aims at helping you to confront your insecurities and overcome them through a process of rigorous self-examination, briefings and field missions.

The second, called “The Style Diaries”, shows you what kind of world Neill has been living in. Filled with tales of seduction and sexual (mis)adventure, it includes accidental marriages, threesomes, sex experiments, and more, taking you further into the seduction underworld than ever before.

Neill’s first book, called simply “The Game”, is now an international best seller, and these are meant to be follow-ups, so if you’d like to play, make sure you start from the beginning by reading that first. However, for advanced players who are already familiar with some of the rules, this advanced lesson should help you to get past the first few lessons and into the real heart of the game.

Just make sure you’re ready for what’s on the other side of the rabbit hole.

BTW: I just lost the game.

…It’s Website Wednesday: CGSphere?

Sphere Project

The Sphere Project is a place “dedicated to the evolution of technical and creative 3D sphere design”, where 3D creatives can go to show off their handiwork.

The goal is to create a captivating and visually appealing sphere from the provided sphere scene using a 3D program and renderer of choice. Anyone is allowed to submit, provided they follow the rules, and a voting system brings the best submissions to the top. Clever ideas, thoughtful execution, technical expertise, and dazzing presentation are all considered, and the making the front page means you’re among the best of the best.

Spheres

Submitted spheres can focus on modeling, texturing, lighting, rendering and compositing modifications, or a combination of any of the above, though above all, creativity and cleverness will win over most of the judges.

Why a sphere?

    The sphere is arguably one of the most basic and fundamental primitives in computer graphics. Its uniformly curved structure allows for wide field of view coverage, as well as full diffuse tonal range shading. When reflective, its convex shape can reveal more of it’s surrounding environment than any other primitive, and when refractive it can bend surrounding light into a single concentrated caustic point. The sphere is an inherent form chaotically evident in nature and continually apparent in man-made designs. From the smallest atomic structures to the largest planetary globes, the sphere continues to be perhaps the most common geometric form in existence.

Think you have what it takes?
