[quote=Kaboobs]What do you mean "happens? Pretty much everyone has internet nowadays, it's hard to find someone without internet.[/quote]

my friends internet is out. seriously o.o. he's using linksys or w/e atm and its rather bad...

@Chaud:

Your post times are inconvenient for me, just accept defeat that I can get my point across with smaller words, and few sentences. Also, accept that even you, and misinterpret words, to get the wrong idea.

On Windows Vista Ultimate Extras you can download a version of Texas Hold Em. I play that instead of the old Solitaire games now. Wish Pinball was still around...

read
learn to knit
download freeware games that don't require internet
etc.

Minecraft all the way.

[quote=Chaud]My post verbatim: "Not sure what constituted such a petulant remark. Never was he complaining in this thread. He was simply wondering what his alternative options are."
Please list all the words you had to look up. I'm having difficulty understanding how so many words in this comment could have confused you.
Looking at your comment, I think it's safe to assume that you looked up "petulant," in which case, you should have read more closely, as you misused the word just now. Also, are you trying to say that your remark was not rude ("Well it wasn't&quot? If so, please inform me how your comment was justified (your comment verbatim: "If you dont turn back on your internet, then deal with it.&quot.[/quote]

he just got owneddd. well. he owned himself first actually, who writes that "I had to look up every other word?" that really. shows. the average. intelligence. of. a. mapler. hell, im even suprised we can all ty-typ-type.

get a 3g phone and browse the internet on that.

Get some non-internet games! Play with AIs in some games maybe.

[quote=tofuzoo51]All i have is reach. no movie player. don't think i got any books around the house O.o[/quote]

You can play movies on your pc?
There are so many more things to do when you don't have internet.

@Chaud: Let me clarify then, since it seems to me youre having so much trouble. The phase "deal with it" doesnt always constitute as a rude remark. "Dealing with" something, means putting up with something. My phrase "If you dont turn back on your internet" is pretty self explanatory.

And how did I misuse "petulant"? It means impatient or aggravated. Which your posts clearly make me. In another way, you could say "U mad?" which in this case, I would say "Hellz yeah"

Another thing, using big words really make you sound intelligent, too bad half the people reading your post have no idea what you're saying, and will disregard your comment as a troll. (They wont pay attention to your comments because they dont understand what youre saying) Try using words are are more commonly used. I think youll find that doing so, will get you more feedback

If you have wireless internet, then you could tell your parents that its not good for your connection or modem if you keep switching it on and off.
Though it does depend on how old you are.
Maple can be pretty addicting so it's responsible of them to monitor how much you play because it can really damage your living style and habits =)

good luck

Get an ipod touch/ipad/iphone

@Chaud:

Well it wasnt. What DOES make me petulant, is that i had to look up every other word in your sentence. You could have gotten your point across with smaller words

Borrow books

Play offline games,halo etc

or play games like starcraft.

Or you can simply knock yourself out till the next day.(NOT RECOMMENDED)

[quote=Ninjenk]Download minecraft, and play that at night.[/quote]

change the time settings on your computer

[quote=Chawcolate]practice drawing. (:[/quote]

This is what I do these days. If I am not doing homework, I am usually drawing either with traditional pencil/paper, or drawing in photoshop.

I'd recommend downloading [url=http://www.miraigamer.net/cavestory/]Cave Story[/url] and playing it. Well worth it.

[quote=Chawcolate]@tofuzoo51: do you have any drawing abilities?
try practicing something you're not really good at.[/quote]

I'm not really good at it but i would like to be.

@Chawcolate Draw what?

@iMario5bro5 Use paint or what do you mean?

[quote=MilkyChocoxD]Play video games or watch a movie? Read a book?[/quote]

All i have is reach. no movie player. don't think i got any books around the house O.o

[quote=CrossboltxX]Turn back on the internet.[/quote]My thoughts exactly. Be a rebel! It's YOUR Internet! Claim it!

If you dont turn back on your internet, then deal with it.

[quote=Hyperstep]Go to a friend that has internet[/quote]
