Central America is technicly part of the Nort American continent.

Central America is not a continent, it is a region that prettry much is from mexico to panima. Parts of Central America are in North America, and other parts are in South America(hence "Central")
You need to check your facts if you think that Central America is it's own continent.
Sputty
2003-01-12, 09:36 PM
Heh, I never said it was a continent. In fact I said it wasn't and that Mexico is part of North America, which you said it was part of South America, and that all other countries below that are part of South America.

I never said that Mexico was part of South America, I was useing the fact that Mexico is considered part of South America(AKA: Latin America) as an arguement that at least part of Central America is in North America.
Also, I'm pretry damn sure the Carabian Islands are part of North America, so there goes the theory that NA only has 3 contries.

There are at least four countries in North America even if you count out Cuba. There is the United States, Canada, Mexico, and the United Kingdom (Bermuda). Since Bermuda is north of the southern tip of Florida, I'd say we can safely consider it in the North American Hemisphere.

Don't depend on all the Americans on here to know much about Geography.
A recent study of American high school students showed that 50% of them couldn't point out their home state on a map.
That being said, Mexico is considered to be a part of North America.
The Europeans and Asians are laughing their butts off right now because they know how much more advanced their educational systems are than ours here in the US.

Yeah, I don't think Asians messed Diablo 2.
My friend however made this program.. If you've ever heard of D2 Hack. It claimed to be able to dupe and let you hack your character. What it did was let you pick the resolution of your computer, and a few other settings then when you went back into the game it would say "Lets get Nakid" and all your stuff would falll off of your character. All his weapoins, armor, rings, amulets, everything in his inventory, and it would all fall on the ground, cutting off your ability to use your mouse. It was an insane program that he made, that changed the world of Diablo 2. He was quite hated around many communities for Diablo2, not many liked him, so look out for a program like that in PS, if he decides to make one. ;)
Not that its hard to get gear, but stealing tech. is always a good thing. :D

It will be a lot easier for them to counter cheats in Planetside than d2, because the publisher controls the servers. Besides, there's not much to dupe when equipment is easy to secure.

I go to public school in the US, and I agree, its shitty as hell. Damn liberals and their push to make "self-esteem" more important than real education.
I could point out most of the states on a map, but thats because I take an intrest in history, and geography is a part of history. Never was teribly good at it though, I'd probably have a better chance pointing out every country in eruope correctly than the US States.

You are in the Majority. I recently found out that Bush's approval rating has dropped below 50%. (down to 46% I think)
In the defence of the "stewpid yanks" mapquest shows that there are 9 Dunkirks in the US.
