and yes, it's what the country wanted being that the President was voted in by a majority

Not to nit pick, but actually Bush didn't receive a majority vote for either of his terms. That's the beauty of the elcetoral system... even though Bush lost the popular vote, he won the electoral.

You are incorrect, Trebla. I'll leave it to you to look up the election results.

Bush actually did win both the popular and electoral vote in 2004. A candidate winning with electoral votes but having lost by popular votes has only happened 3 times in US history. Either way, that's a fault of the system, true, but still has nothing to do with a member of the armed forces following orders, dieing in combat and then being made a joke of. That's what I really had an issue with. I am aware that it [i]probably[/i] wasn't meant to sound as harsh as it did, it just did...

My mistake, he actually did get 51% in 2004. I thought it was just below 50%. I didn't mean to imply he lost the popular vote in both terms, just that he didn't receive the majority, which it turns out was wrong anyway. It was only in 2000 where he lost the popular vote and (obviously) didn't receive a majority.

Please explain to me how a nice thread on Swarm Kite Aggro Loss got hijacked and turned into a hate/rant thread on the US armed forces. I appologise Salford.

It's such an over-whelming/heated/emotional topic that it is hard for it not to hijack any forum. I will do my best to steer it back with a string of hypotizing dashes. [b]------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------[/b] I just started swarm kiting and I discovered that I have a penchant for dying. I have been practicing in the OT, and I find that once I break the charm, I cannot get over to the damaged mob to finish the job without getting the stuffing beat out of me by the swarm. What am I doing wrong?

/grin... You arent staying far enough in front of them... Now for a slightly more helpful answer. Are you keeping selos active? Do you have the pet targetted BEFORE he becomes the ex-pet? How are you trying to finish off the ex pet? I always just kept running and twisting dots till the ex pet was dead.

You can run in a moving circle, compensating for his movement if he is running away, or you can twist in a snare to make it a non-moving circle. Just dot away and don't get hit, is the basic idea.

Ok, thanks all.

I remember too many times in pon that mobs will attack me after a certain amount of charms and have more aggro on me than on my pet. I can only speculate that that is normal since the pets see me singing a charm song and see me singing dots on their ex friends. So i end up running in circles with my exp pet after me instead of my new pet,and i have to snare it to get my new pet on it and aggro it.
