Title: Who do you enjoy reading...
Post by: The Omen on May 31, 2003, 09:07:50 PM
...or look forward to bashing here on these forums?  I know theres certain people i look forward to responding to , because they annoy me, so i give them an extra dose of sarcasm,.  But theres also a couple of people who i agree with a lot, and enjoy jumping to their aid.   Lets face facts, we all want our point of veiw out there, so give me a few names of the best and worst you 'deal' with on these forums.  I'll give mine after a few are already out there.....but mentioning me as your favorite will save you from my venomous wrath.....and wrath it shall be....

I think this thread will be blocked.
Saying who's posts you like and don't like reading would form this massive gang bashing, and that would be a bit of worry, to the people who's posts nobody likes. I'm sorry to say, but it's like school. People come here to express themselves (or in PGC terms, bitch about anything). So saying that you don't like their posts will just discourage them from using the forums, much like bullies would discourage them from going to school.

I'm not saying anyone's my fave or not. It would just form negative opinions and what not.
I am neutral with everyone.

That said, there is the odd poster who just says something that everyone just agrees is plain stupid. What happens to them is up to the mods, not us.

Bash, a lot of the guys that posted a lot before that I liked to read have gone. Carl, Gak, Marcus left a while ago. As for people now I read, there are just way too many of ya'll to list.

There's too many people here I like to list them all, and there really isn't anyone who I enjoy bashing (I used to like going toe-to-toe with ymeegod, but he's actually a good guy).

Interesting thing, though, if you do a user search for "mouse clicker", you'll find not only my name but the name of someone called "Mouse Clicker Flicker". I'm not sure if this is just a coincidence or if I've gain an arch nemesis, but it is pretty weird.

Termin8anakin, mouse clicker, Gibdo Master,Grey Ninja, Piac - i know i'll read their thread when one pops up...theres a few others as well, but i cant recall...as for bashing, thats a little harsh, but i suppose i meant who do you just know you're going to be debating with?

Well thanks Omen and PIAC.    Nice to know that not ALL of my posts are blatant spam.  

The people around here who convinced me that this forum might be worth my time are far too numerous to mention, and I am afraid of leaving someone out who deserves to be on the list.  I just appreciate the general cool-headedness around here.  I really appreciate those who speak with reason and logic.

I don't really know anyone around here who seriously bothers me and I don't look forward to reading their posts.  I suppose that I will develop enemies in time (I always do), but I always try to be courteous with everyone.

The threads around here that I do enjoy though are the more lighthearted ones, such as hyping a game that I am into, or even a simple joke.  I also enjoy the ones where I can offer some constructive advice, or I can have a good in-depth debate about something important to me.

The ones that I don't enjoy are the spamming ones of course, the ones where Nintendo's every move is criticized, or the ones that obsess over sales.  I still read them from time to time, but I don't generally participate in threads that don't have a title that draws me in, and has no content that I can provide intelligent comment on.

There was this guy Jirachi that everyone loved to debate with.
His commments were pretty much Xbox biased, but it was a shame he had to resort to plain old cussing toward Mario, and he got banned.
Maybe he's here under a new name.
Title: RE: Who do you enjoy reading...
Post by: PIAC on June 02, 2003, 01:33:01 AM
yeah thats what i dont like doing, nameing people i like cause i have a terrible memory for names ^_^ there are lots of people i would have wanted to put in my list, but as my brain goes it ... i like pie?

yeah, my memory sucks

also on the subject of thread likes, im with grey ninja whole heartedly, hyping/discussing games or jokes etc = the best, general light hearted noobery (check out the aussie thread ) are awsome too

sales threads are kinda dull, i tend to steer clear of them ^_^, threads like this one are great too, i like to find out things about people im err.. foruming with,  gives it a better sence of comunity? i dunno, thats just me

Man is this board going crazy. Can't reply around here without getting hit on...

Disappearing staff members. Lots of weird stuff. Going C R A Z Y....

So far most of the people I normally read from are here. The Aussie thread is great stuff.

Quick question, anyone of you guys intersted in aquiring a foam Gamecube? Checking for general interst.

There used to be a whole bunch of guys I looked forward to reading their posts but for whatever reason pretty much all of them have disappeared.  Right now the only people who's posts I really look out for are staff members because usually they have something relevant to say and they know some things we don't know.  Of course sometimes all they write is "movin' this to general chat".

Post by: Hostile Creation on June 02, 2003, 07:59:52 AM
Well I'm glad to see I'm not on the bad list yet.

Off hand, people I like talking to are (in no particular order) mouseclicker, PIAC, Grey Ninja, Bill, Termin8anakin. . . there's another guy, maybe Gamefreak.  I have a hard time remembering these aliases.  There are quite a few.  Oh, and of course Bloodworth, Rick, all them.

Foam Gamecube? You mean those small things they handed out at E3 last year? I saw them in Nintendo Gamer! Is that what you're talking about?
I want one, definitely!

Hey oohhboy, wanna do something later?
You are a girl right? RIGHT? Haha.


eeewwwwwwww! Grrrrls!
But I like grrrls. Grrrls are nice. They are nice and curvy, like the way the road bends and stuff. e They're nice especially when they take some things off....like their shoes, their shirt, their skirt, and....

their wig?

AHHHHHHHHH! Run! RUN!

Title: Who do you enjoy reading...
Post by: NinGurl69 *huggles on June 02, 2003, 05:25:14 PM
50-yen is like 50-cents/U.S.
Title: RE: Who do you enjoy reading...
Post by: Termin8Anakin on June 02, 2003, 06:42:26 PM

Hmmm... I might be, but I already constructed myself a paper one when I was waiting for the GameCube to come out, and I still have it.

According ot the XE universal currency converter, 50 yen is equal to a little more than half an Australian dollar (0.641697 Australian dollars).

And 50 yen is closer to 40 cents US, not 50.

I have two, but I am intrested in selling one. I got mine back at spaceworld. Send your bids through to private messages.

I don't need no stinkin online international calculator to tell me the current yen-dollar exchange rate!  I only said it was "like" not "is" or "was" -- ballpark figures people!  For the past 15 years the yen's been going up and down in value, but 50yen and 50cents still yield similar results: it can buy you a cheap can of soda!

But if you wanted to see the exchange between U.S. currency and Hong Kong currency, then cool, use the calculator cuz it's quite crazy, not some simple 40/50, 50/50 mental familiarity, it's like 1US/7HK or something I FORGOT!  I haven't been there in 4 years!

A foam Gamecube would be nice, but my friend made one out of paper or something, so there'd be little point.

The fake one is almost as fun as the real one.  We play all-out, no bars volleyball with it

I was gonna come over pick it up for free, but then you live in New Zealand, so that idea's scrapped.

Modern carrier pigeons are a little stupid compared to the ones used during World War I.  These days they need GPS guidance systems.

oohhboy, I haven't got my foam cube yet.
where's the pigeon??
did it die? DIE?
Nooooooooooooooooo!
Title: RE: Who do you enjoy reading...
Post by: oohhboy on June 04, 2003, 10:09:19 PM
Do you know what I shoud have done? I should have gotten atleast one of them signed by Peter Main or something.

Anyway, I couldn't hook up enough pigeons with attached rockets to them to fly and not get killed. More I hooked up, worse the problem got.

Dude, PIAC, you have an awesome room.  Let's all gang up against NintendoKid.

In case it's not clear, I'm being completely serious.  Well, not the ganging up part (unless you really want to), but you do have a cool room.  I thought it might sound sarcastic, so I had to clarify the fact that it is indeed a great room.

thank you, i enjoy your posts too. I'm not gone though, i just don't post hardly at all because for some reason every "debate" ends up turning into what nintendo is doing wrong, and I'm just tired of saying the same thing over and over.  I was gone for a while because my lung collapsed and I was bed ridden for over a month but I still visit and read some of the posts when I find the time.  I have noticed a whole new group of forum regulars and I find some of their comments intersting. A lot of them seem like newbies to me but they seem to have a grip on these forums...some of them maybe the originals just masquerading under different names.....its a conspiracy i tell ya.

I like your axe.  I'd like to cut things with it.  Shut up, get out of my head!


Anyways your room is fine.  My room is all blue, dark blue walls and ceiling.  So it's always dark even if lights are on and window curtains open.

I like your room.  Give it to me.

Sorry. Leave me alone!

Post by: Termin8Anakin on June 09, 2003, 06:16:38 PM
I think the room thing is getting a bit too competetive.
People will be murdered and buried alive just to have their rooom the best.

btw, I just put up the Matrix Reloaded posters in my room, and I'm possibly gonna get the Animatrix stand from the video store. My room needs a bit of matrix-ifying.

I like my room, but I don't have any posters on the wall, so no Nintendo memorabilia.

Post by: Termin8Anakin on June 15, 2003, 01:23:40 AM
meh, i don't hang out in my room and just smile at everything going: "yeah...this is the bomb."
I only go in there to sleep, get dressed and get my kabudo weapons.
I actually have to be OUT of my room to watch TV/movies, go on the computer and play games, which is, like, an experience some of you have never tried before.
