Bryan....Good name?
Most of the parents will scractch their head for their new born baby, and same to my sister. She thought of Bryan but yet maybe she thinks it's not good enough so she wants me to think of a name starts with B. I'm not very good in name starts with B especialy for a boy......haha, but i think of few such as Bernard, Bosco, Bernedict, Brandon, Benny.....and even Bexter(alexander+esther) but she still don't like it...so end of the day she said she still prefer Bryan (wasting my time only).
And now, she's start headache for the baby's chinese name, so as a Uncle, i of course will try my best to think a nice name for the baby. The baby will be born soon, i have to think fast.....

NOOBS.........in dota
Noobie is in the game
1. Stereo type of typical uncouth and uncivilized person often shown through improper dresscode during social functions or unmatching haircolor during family dinners.
2. A condescending discriminatory insult.
3. DOTA players with poor ethics and bad manners. And tend to suck as well.
AC: good good. we managed to get into the game
M: hohoho
(The game is full)
Monstakilla: oi, all rdy?
kavmaster: wait host.
Monstakilla: ??????????
kavmaster: wait, i got 3 more friends coming
Monstakilla: fukla, which one?
AC: (wtf??) kick kavmaster. less hassle.
kavmaster: huh don't kick me
kavmaster has left the game.
AC: good kick. 10 9 10 8.5 10
AC: 0.5 for technicality.
(awkward silence)
chilla84 has joined the game.
AC: (To M) they didn't understand...
AC: (To M) dammit another ah beng team..
Pardon the above scenario. I'm just venting my frustration but I think at one point of another we've encountered a team that fits this stereotype. They are semi coherent, uncultured, probably have read only 2 books a year (if flipping through the pages of FHM or COSMO to look for nipple shots is considered 'reading'), taunt you with broken Malayish for the slightest things (like narrowly surviving your Lina combo) and spam the channel with GOGOGOGOGOGOGOGOGOGOGs. Ah bengs.
Of course one might argue that they are just a bunch of immatured children, which cannot be denied either but this is hard to tell when you are trying to visualize the person behind the persona over Battlenet. Then again, it can be said that ah bengs have just about the same mentality as these immatured children, with more spunk.
The thing is, how do we deal with such people? Especially when they begin to hurl insults at you in the game, or threaten to disconnect. Banlists don't scare these people. They may have the articulacy of a washing machine, but they do know how to create a new account on Bnet after having got banned once before for their meticulous disconnective behaviour.
Today I've come up with a list of way to deal with them, which also comes with a figure that indicates the chance of success as based on my past experiences and random observations.
1. Pro Silence
Pro silence is the term I give to people who tend to be excellent in the game, but never once will they utter a word. You can talk to them for hours telling them the plan, and you'll never know if they actually did hear you, but somehow your plan works out and you find yourself winning the game; communication regardless.
In my experience, pro silence does nothing to deter the stereo typical noobie, as they will continue to barrage you with insults after insults which in itself does not hurt, but this takes their focus off the game and they tend to die easier. The ultimatum is a downward spiral of the game as dying, the noobie finds himself blaming you for the deaths even more and thus tries to throw even more insults at your silent name.
The silence makes them uncomfortable. Chance of success: 0%
2. Retaliate!
Sometimes you've had a bad day, or more like your girlfriend has a bad day, and thus you are affected, and as a result when that noobie pisses you off, you return by lashing out at him in the same common denominator vulgar language that he's so very well versed in.
Like the saying goes, never try to argue with an idiot, he only brings you down to his level and beats you from experience. Chance of success: 0%
3. Be Nice
If the going gets rough, you need sandpaper. Thus when an ah beng decides to make you the sole focus of his uncalled for angst, you should try to resolve it by talking things out with the angry bugger. Every remark is returned with a polite sentence, pretty smilies and all. Give him what he wants, and let him have things his way. Perhaps he'll mellow down.
This method is promising, because after all, everyone knows that ah bengs just want people to understand them, which is to see things their way, which in short means to agree to their every whim. This ultimately fails because Apple's Law dictates that there are always 2 or more noobies in any given public DOTA game.
Chance of success: 1%
4. Play Psychologist
Perhaps we could try to unravel the mind of a noob, and thus be able to understand them which might result in a mutual understanding of their kind with us. However, any attempts to deconstruct the noob psyche is dangerous and risky as in trying to do so, you might be sucked into their ever constant playground of a mind and turn into one of them.
In my experience, it doesn't work trying to counsel or console any noobs either as they barely fail to understand your language if you do not place cuss words in between every 2 words and type sentences longer than half of their screen. Besides that, their minds automatically filter out words with 6 characters or more. We know that much at least, and it wasn't easy getting that information.
Hence, don't ever try to understand a noob. Chance of success: 0%
5. Quit the game
Can't take the mental abuse? Don't like the way your bengnemies are treating you? Can't stand that ah beng with the BKB-ed Naix who keeps destroying Moonwells in your base and then laughing about it as if it were something new? Well, there's always the easy way out. For no stress and effort at all, just press the magic Alt-F4.
But that would make you a leaver. Chance of success: -
6. Discuss it on DOTA Malaysia!
Apparently I've run out of ideas, but I'm sure someone who reads this site has better experience at this sort of thing. I mean, forget the noob part. It's a sour stereo type for such players, but what else do you call these people who lack ethics and in the game.
The DOTA community is growing by day, and it's without a doubt that the bad eggs are just about there in any game for that matter but it's high time we taught these people some manners!
The question is, how?

The question is, how?
Gentlecars, start your engines.....
Damn, how could it start raining before i finish my work. Now i have to stay over without doing anything but keep on clicking my fifaworldcup player online. I almost felt asleep during working so i speed up to faster finish it, who knows still can't make it before the rain.
Maybe cause of the movie yesterday made me tired, haha. Hhmm, it's been 2 months none stop watching movie week by week. Looks like i didn't miss any movie that i wanna watch so far, though some of the movies are out of my espectation.
Yesterday went to watch Pixar new animation CARS with my budd. Since he being good and nice when he was sick last week by taking his medicine on time, so i decide to treat him dinner plus the movie as reward...hehe
So how's the CARS? I don't really know, cause there's a lot of mini engine starting to run around in the cinema, wait, i thought i'm in day care center or something. Well, at least i think the short animation at the begining before the show starts do attract. Gonna add into my mobile collection once the DVD is out for sale.
So how's the CARS really, well i can say it has quite good story line, but so far for me, i think it can't compare to Over The Hedge, a animation showed before CARS, which is not a production of Pixar, i gonna get the DVD too...woohoo....
Oh gosh, i am tired....ignore me if you think it's weird.....zzzzz

Life was like this part II
I can't believe this is happened to me. I'm going to carzy busy week, maybe will be month soon. Imagine a team with 5 person and i am might need to do the rest of 3 people including mine job.
This is what i do at the moment, do report for some company for their exposure rate on newspaper, magazine, and maybe television. My group of people are doing for the chinese newspaper and magazines cause the rest of the collegues can't read mandarin. So this is what happened before this, everyone in the group has the equal of big report from daily newspaper, and some sub report from magazine and newspaper from east coast of Malaysia. Before this was a peaceful, free and not so much work situation even though some team member came different time. Yeah, this was a job with all the freedom you want, as long as you finish the job you were asked to do. Plus, nobody will interrupt what you do neither you can do the same, unless there's some rushing situation.
Unfortunately, one of the member seems like unhappy with his job and been absent since the begining of the month, so at the moment the rest of us will share his job. I remembered that the other two of members, which are couples, already planned to go for vacation soon, now only left me, and another guy who come not as much as me, gonna share their jobs.
I'm already start to become a bit crazy already by sharing part of the extra job, but sometimes i do it all, i wondering do i have to camp in the office for some time to finish all the jobs that need to be finish?
But things are always two side, bad and good. By having this much of jobs in hand, which automaticly increase my monthly income by complete all those main and sub reports. But hope by that time i still manage to have the chance to enjoy the harvest.

Life was like this....

Which the spirit that will never give up, i'm finally back here.....and i realise it's been almost a year i left here....i guess the motivation before this was not enough and maybe my post was not attractive and interesting enough.........lolzzz
