For some reason on this topic

The edge of the banner is cut out. Here is the original image.

Any ideas why?

It works fine for me.

 

So you see yellow all around the picture?

[Guest]

Works fine for me, too.

 

Edit: Yep, there's a yellow border around it for me.

This seems like as good a place as any to ask.

 

On GTA: online, is there a way to get rid of a car you've got full insurance coverage for?

 

I've got a 6 car garage, and I want to make room by getting rid of one of my less favoured cars. What do i do?

@The Odyssey

You need to collapse the sidebar, or click the image itself to see it fully.

 

@GTA_Stu

I think you can just drive whatever car you want into your garage and it will ask which car you want it to replace. If you want to rid yourself of the car to make physical room, you could try destroying it and just never make a claim on it.

Wait... Can I put a tracker and buy insurance on more than one car?

 

How am I supposed to not lose them if I have many cars (when I buy a garage).

Yes you can and should put a tracker and insure all of your cars. You pretty much can leave your car anywhere when you exit online - it will be in your garage when you get back on line.

 

E:

@stu. You may want to drive any cars you don't want anymore to LSCustoms and see if they'll buy it. I'm not sure you get any cash when you roll up to your garage and it asks you which car you want to replace it with.

If it's not one of the premium models, you can just sell it in LS Customs.

Could an undercover cop kill innocent or unrelated people in order to not blow his cover?

[trip]

Of course not.

[lil weasel]

Could an undercover cop kill innocent or unrelated people in order to not blow his cover?

Of course not. Was the answer years ago. But, now it depends on what is going on. The test for new gang members is to kill someone to prove a prospective member isn't a cop.

However, with the new world thinking it might not be so anymore.

Think about it with todays ethics. Will killing one or two 'innocents' really be so bad when the cop can 'take down' a whole gang of killers?

The Government has no compunctions about killing civilians in a "War" zone, so why not in domestic "war on crime/drugs"?

I noticed on some members who renamed their usernames, their old usernames still pops on the read feeds (IDK what you call it) when it should be their current usernames that is supposed to be. Is this some bug and is anyone conscious of it?

[lil weasel]

This 'new forum' doesn't seem to concern itself with new names. As if the old topics are archived and thus unchangeable.

You only change your display name, not your log in name, which is what the forum uses to show who's currently reading the thread.

How can I fix PSP DNS error? Ever since I got an upgrade (and ISP sent and installed a new router), whenever I try to connect to internet, it sucessfully Obtains IP Address and a few seconds later I get DNS Error.

 

I tried restoring default setttings, resetting router, Switching WLAN On/Off and re-adding the connection like a billion times. None worked

Im trying to embed or upload an audio only file to this site as I want to post something for people to listen to. How can I do this without going through youtube?

 

Youtube requires me to make a video format out of audio which I cannot do. Please help me out its driving me crazy.

[na89340qv0n34b09q340]

Embedding won't work with GTAF's bbcode, but you can upload the sound to another site and link users to the upload.

 

Soundcloud - https://soundcloud.com/

Dropcanvas - http://dropcanvas.com/

Dropbox - https://www.dropbox.com/

 

All allow audio file sharing for free with an account sign up. Sioundcloud and dropbox both allow people to play the audio on their website rather than download it themselves. You don't have to sign up for dropcanvas to share, but with an anonymous account the file uploaded has to be under 1 GB, and it'll expire in three days.

Thanks for the details dudes. Apparently I am still able to log my name despite me using a new display name.

Is there anyway to "bypass" accepting the terms and conditions on XBL?

I can't accept it on Xbox and Xbox.com because I have to use the Parent account and I don't know the password and it won't let me recover the password

[lil weasel]

If you don't accept the terms, why should they let you in?

It is a contract, if the user isn't willing to accept they don't have to deliver.

Let me answer that for you. Actually it's kind of easy if I tell you. I can easily tell the right answer and wrong one.

 

Answer is in bold text.

Let's say I own a property in GTA:O, but I buy a new one... Will I get back the money I spent on the first property?

You'll get half of the money you spent on the first property back.

Is it weird to sort of like being alone? Like I feel lonely alot, but I sort of enjoy it because I'm starting to hate most of my friends. I could chill out and smoke weed and just think. Idk. I want someone's opinion.

 

 

Please be as positive as you can.

That's what introversion is supposed to be. It's definitely not weird or uncommon, it's just that not many people admit that they prefer to be alone when they're around other people.

You're certainly not...alone (thank you, thank you very much)...in this thinking. Often I just want to be by myself and do my own thing without the feeling of having to entertain somebody; be it conversation, and/or sharing my booze, or performing that male-to-female genitalia trick. This is one of the reasons I try to avoid romantic relationships (that's what I tell myself anyway to plug up the tears). Word of warning though: be careful, as if you're anything like me, too much isolation will eventually mutate you into a miserable, cynical bastard.

I actually been down that path my freshman year. I'm trying to stay positive this time though.
