Re: A lot of enchanted items for sale!

Is there any chance we can order a specific tool from you? For example, if I wanted a diamond pick with a specific set of enchantments on it can I PM you the specifics as well as my offer? I understand that this would take a bit of time to get, but this way I would have the order placed rather than ...

Re: Communism

An interesting claim 697134002, but I feel that your argument was presented without evidence. For example, you said that "Pure capitalism would lead to a society ruled, more or less, by mega-corporations." This is a pretty brazen claim to make without any evidence behind it. A true capitalist system...

Re: Current US vote candidates

Mitt Romney very obviously changes tack to get voters, and you should fault him for it. It is not so much that his positions evolve over time, but that his positions change to what is most popular or practical to support. I shall give one clear example. As Governor of Massachusetts he spearheaded a ...

Re: Current US vote candidates

Mitt Romney was the Governor of Massachusetts. He is a moderate conservative with a history of saying whatever needs to be said to appeal to the voters (and as such his views have changed over time, and he has a history of completely changing his opinions randomly). Waffling aside, Romney is a very ...

Re: Hiring Someone to Build a Mob/EXP Grinder

To answer your questions Singh44s, I do not want to convert a dungeon spawner into an XP drops station, those are rather slow and inefficient. I have a very large land claim in Terra that would allow you to build a structure. The structure's output does not need to be massive, but must be respectful...

Marx assumes a massive change in the nature of humanity (elimination of greed, envy, ect). Without this change communism is impractical if not impossible. One of the many reasons people often dislike communists is because they often forget that this change is needed before a Marxist society can be e...
