Okay well I am officially burnt out on COD4. I am back to 55 commander again after doing the prestige thing and have figured out that unless I play with my friends it just isnt fun anymore. So if you guys ever want to play just hit me up on my gamertag with a message and I will jump on but I only play team deathmatch. Also the amazing amount of jerks on xbox live has really made me wonder whether it is worth it at all. I mean I am in no way a saint but some of the stuff I hear these people say or scream is in no way shape or form appropriate. I know about the whole freedom of speech thing but I am just getting burnt out with people spewing racial slurs and insults that are better reserved for the fiery pits of hell. Also the amount of sexually explicit content that is shouted over my headset has me wondering why the hell people let thier kids play on xbox live. I mean the kind of stuff I hear makes my face do this . Xbox live really needs to be more regulated. I remember playing everquest and if you so much as said one inappropriate thing they would ban you in a second. Microsoft really needs to start policing Xbox live immediately! Thanks for letting me get this off my chest. _________________

Update!: I have discovered the love that is being a sniper in call of duty 4. At first I didnt like it because everything I shot at I missed. And then I figured out that you need to look through the scope! Just kidding! Anyhow I have been rocking the sniper rifle and found out it is a wonderful thing headshotting someone from half a mile away. When the match is over people will be like Rebel where the hell were you? I just tell them that is a secret location known only to a select few. With the ghillie suit on I look like a piece of grass and people can't locate me if I time my shots right and dont fire like a crazy man. Anyhow Again if you guys wish to add me to your friends list I am on alot. Wes I am really loving this 32inch lcd hdtv! I still can't believe you sent it too me for Christmas!!!! _________________

I could play with you i guess, but i dont really like COD 4 online, im only a lvl 5 or so i think lol. Ive been playing shadowrun a lot lately, and of course gears of war
As for the talking on xbox live, i just got used to it. Sometimes i get mad at people because they are so annoying, but other than that i dont care. Racial slurs piss me off, but anything else i dont care about, hell i use them myself from time to time. Watching chappelle show and south park from the age of 11 made me not care, but i understand where your coming from. _________________

Yeah it really hurts my feelings when I am sitting in a empty game lobby sending out invites to all my HQ buddies and then sit there "crickets chirping" and sit there "crickets chirping" and then wait and sit there some more. The only person that has played with me from HQ has been jbrizzel and hyptnotix and that was about it. I was bragging to all my friends how cool you guys are and then we would wait some more for you guys to join and then I would just sign off and LoL no I am just kidding I know that people have lives and want to play other games. I played mass effect last night and people were sending me invites left and right to get back on call of duty 4 and you would think that they would see you are playing mass effect and figure out after the first couple of invites that you are not moving from that game. Anyhow it is all good hobbs and thank you very much for fixing that avatar thing. _________________

So my old buddy Wes got a taste of Call of duty 4 and now he wants to play it. Oh sure you can't take my word for it! You have to play it on the ps3 and then decide hey I think maybe Rebelcharm was on to something here! Well when you finally do decide to get a 360 and call of duty 4 and send me a invite to play with you in a game what the heck do you think I am going to do????? I am going to say hell yeah and me and you are going to rock the game!!!!! _________________

Dont get ahead of yourself REB. LOL
I was updateing the PS3 for him since he aint got online yet, and when i got it all done i pop in COD4 and updated it for him and said what the hell.
I got around 15 min. of online play time and i was about to cry.
I was even thinking about selling my own modded xbox to get it.
Im not so sure i wold be able to get what i wold ask for my xbox since it has all the upgrades i can think of.
Just off the top of my head it has:
clear green case
2x 80mm fans with covers
cold cathode light
ata 133 upgrade
samsung disk drive
300GB hdd
clear jewel
X3 CE chip
X3LCD
X3faceplate
X3 bios switch
X3IR
2x USB input on faceplate
With all that im not sure what it wold bring and i know in the end i wold kick myself if i did let it go.
Whats a man to do?
