or you could simply put the damn threads back the way they were. and give me a cookie.

That has no effect on bots signing up. They aren't posting, just signing up. There have been about 70 registrations in the last 2 days.

edit: In fact, if the thread gen thing was actually on, this place would be LITTERED with newb threads as all the accounts have confirmed their email address. I suspect the mod zengoat suggested (about preventing new users from posting links or pics) has prevented them from posting at all.

Bots can play WoW, I'm sure they could do that

but who's going to make a bot just to get in this forum if it's custom programming? no one

The three primary colours are blue, yellow and?

Ask fly what the primary colors are.

 

[Jonny_B]

Ask fly what the primary colors are.

cyan, magenta and yellow or blue, red and green.

there are two sets.

 

[Dory Berkowitz-Bukowski]

cyan, magenta and yellow or blue, red and green.

there are two sets.

But ths question states red and blue, no?

 

[APRIL]

Red, yellow, blue when you are talking art/paint.

Red, green, blue (or whatever variation) for light.

 

[Dory Berkowitz-Bukowski]

Phew, I thought I was going really stupid because I thought the answer would be yellow, then someone said green and I questioned my entire upbringing.

This was an argument years ago between fly and me. I was on your side of the fence... and those techno geeks think its green.

subtractive (i.e. when mixing paints you subtract reflected color) is cyan magenta yellow (not blue red yellow). all together is black.

additive (i.e. when adding light you add color) is red green blue. all together is white.

That's because these techno nerd men know nothing or art or colour. I suppose the cyan bs primary colours should something to do with the spectrum, not with primary.

 

[Jonny_B]

But ths question states red and blue, no?

you originally said "blue, yellow and?" which can't be answered correctly, because blue is an additive primary color and yellow is a subtractive primary color. they're never in the same set or primary colors.

And blacks not even a colour!!!

it's what you get when you mix all three subtractive primary colors. because all three will absorb all wavelengths of light, you get no reflected light off the surface, thus black.

It can't be answered correctly if you're going to be anal about it When you mix paints you get red, yellow and blue, and that's the primary colours I was taught and know. I don't really care much beyond that.

There are some bored people out there.

if you use red yellow and blue you'll get a close approximation, but any art supply store should be able to sell you cyan and magenta.

they also taught me in school that there are 10 newtons in a kilogram, but that's not as accurate of 9.81 N = 1kg*9.81m/s^2

What animal does bacon come from?

Oh, I suppose you are going to tell me that there is some wonderful, magical animal that bacon comes from.

 

[Jonny_B]

it's the metric system measure of force. it replaces pounds (force).
