Should be more like cents. The Japanese use Yen, which is similar to cents. You'll see something in the grocery store for 1000 Yen, which only sounds like a lot if you don't realize that it's about ten dollars. Personally I find our whole decimal system with currency quite bothersome (especially pennies-- pennies should be done away with altogether). But I'd sooner see us switch to metric.

The American currency system (I assume you're talking of the american currency, pennies and what not) is already a metric based.

Meters to dollars, Decimeters to dimes, all that business.

Not to mention the most obvious, centimeters = cents. Rather similar, yeah? Wink

A bit late but Crystal, your baby is ADORABLE!

Actually I was talking about our units of measurement in weight, length, etc.

Thanks everyone who complimented Seraphine. She's my sweetheart <3

I never assumed he was joking. As long as I don't have to see it and he gives all lamp posts a disclaimer, have fun Renaise Smile

Cute baby!!!!! How old is she?

I actually met my boyfriend on FFXI too, we've been dating for 5 years. I had no idea this was common XD

Also Crystal: Ellion is a lot like Zane (I can see them getting along in game) he loves endgame (It's why the Crimson Blades is both RP and endgame) and really considers himself a light RPer, while I consider myself a more medium RPer.

I actually believe it's more common lately than people realize. Every time I leave the country now and have to explain why I'm going, the Customs individuals say things like:

"You met your fiancÃƒÂ© online? Let me guess... some computer game like WoW?"

It seems the Customs people and boarder control are well versed in the occurrence of people meeting online and getting together through video games. Wink

And if it's that widespread on a country -> country level, just think how it might be within boarders.

I'd have to agree with this. ESPECIALLY in game communities where there's a high frequency of interaction and a lot of topics discussed beyond what got nerfed this week. So, like this one. Big Grin

I think it's kind of a shame actually Real-ID didn't get off the ground so other companies could mimic it...

Then again... maybe it's for the best...

I honestly could go either way with that myself. Personally I don't mind having my name out there so much, but there's a lot of room for abuse and stalking. My guildies already know who I am and where I live anyway though, so I'm probably screwed. Laugh

1 out of 4 couples meets online.

Thanks Match.com!

Do you mind? I'm having a private moment here!

:o Aaaaaah my eyes!

Silly Renaise.

You're no Rolanberry.
You don't even have any leaves!

My daughter (Seraphine Rose, after my FFXI character) is 1 year and 5 months old. That picture was from last Halloween but it's the only small one I have online. Honestly I think it's kinda odd Zane and I met in a game, but whatever works I guess :: shrugs ::

Honestly I don't mind people getting to know me irl from in game as long as their people I actually enjoy being around and have known for a while. However, if you show up at my house and I didn't invite you personally I do want you to know I have an armed ninja in my living room. Funny thing is I'm not joking :o

Ah, Ninja Security. Good firm.

I heard they just signed a contract with Wu-Tang Financial. Things are looking up.
