[size=1]Okay everyone, it seems like this thread is going nowhere so I'm going to close it. Please read the rules everyone, and work on your post quality. -Shy[/size]

[QUOTE][i]Originally posted by Lady Macaiodh [/i] [B][color=darkblue][size=1]This is a good place to come out though, considering all the gay and polygamous marriages around here, lol.[/color][/size] [/B][/QUOTE] [size=1]Sometimes I wonder what's wrong with us.. heh. I'm really proud of you, especially after the stuff you have had to deal with lately. Obviusly my opinion of you does not change at all, if nothing else I think more highly of you after fully "coming out" to OB. PS: I hate the term "coming out," it sounds really stupid IMO. -Shy[/size]

[QUOTE][i]Originally posted by Altron Gundam [/i] [B]This is an illegal topic..the mods should close it..I would but I don't have power here anymore. [/B][/QUOTE] [size=1]Agreed. This sort of topic is advertising, which is strictly against the rules. Thread closed. -Shy[/size]

[QUOTE][i]Originally posted by DeathBug [/i] [B]How about sound bytes? Like, every time you go to the Yu-Gi-Oh forum, Yami says "It's time to duel", or every time you go to the DBZ forum, Goku yells "Kamehameha", or some such thing. [/B][/QUOTE] [size=1]Please no, I would go insane if I had to listen to Yugi saying "It's time to duel!" every time I checked in on the forum. Personally I think it is a waste of server space, just include the sound bytes on the Otaku sites or something... Collapsing the Gundam forum into Anime Lounge would be nice. -Shy[/size]

[size=1]Eh, my scariest experience does not involve a medical emergency or a near-fatal accident. Telling my best friend that I was gay was easily the most terrifying thing that I had ever gone through in my entire life. It was the second to last day of 11th grade, and we were walking hom from school when I told him. He just stopped for a second, and gave me a confused look. He asked me if I was joking, I said no, and then nervously laughed. But yeah, the story sort of gets really depressing after that.... *wanders off* -Shy[/size]

[size=1]Well, you shouldn't have brought back a one year old topic, Ben. Sara is on vacation until next week, so she can't post in it for a while. Send her a PM about it, while I move this into the appropriate forum. -Shy[/size]

[size=1]I'm both relieved and distraught by lack of appearances in this thread...[color=white][i]worst post ever![/i][/color] -Shy[/size]

[QUOTE][i]Originally posted by Semjaza Azazel [/i] [B]Hmm. I thought this was about having crushes on Shy. I'm guilty of this, so I founded his fan club. Guess I was wrong.[/B][/QUOTE] [size=1]So did I, actually. I looked at the title and thought, "Ooh, someone has a crush on me." But no, Semjaza seems to be the only one who has a fondness for me. Oh well.. The best way to avoid people is to be shy. It may be cute and endearing to some, but on a romantic level is makes you nonexistant. If you seriously want to start a relationship with someone then you need to make the first move. -Shy[/size]

[size=1]Eh, I usually have terrible experience when it comes to buying music. Of the 20+ albums that I have purchased through my life, maybe two or three I am capable of listening to without having "the buyer's remorse." The latest Weezer CD is one of those rare exceptions, and I really enjoy it. The main reason I bought it was because of their "Gone Fishin'" single; any band that features the Muppets in a music video instantly earns my respect. I remember first hearing of them from "Buddy Holly," and there were a couple of other random songs of theirs. Only with the Muppet video did I start looking around online for more information on the band, and I realized that Weezer had sone stuff like "The Sweater Song" which I liked. They aren't my favorite band, but I can't think of many other bands that I listen to as often. Their new CD is pretty good, though. -Shy[/size]

[size=1]Yes, introductions threads are not allowed on OB, and really the bets way to introduce yourself to members is to write well thought out and intelligent posts. Welcome to the boards, I'm sure that you will have a lot of fun if you follow the rules. -Shy[/size]

[size=1]Welcome to OtakuBoards Teknomanfan, enjoy your stay. :whoops: Playing mod = Bad. Me being very busy this weekend and unable to mod normally = even worse. Anyway, this is a "favorites" topic, and is normally not allowed because they tend to lead to short and pointless posts. Please put more thought into future posts. This thread is closed. -Shy[/size]

[size=1]I'm going to close this, since it can't really generate any discussion, and you posted it in the wrong forum. This game breaks several copyright laws as well, please do not do this sort of stuff in the future. -Shy[/size]

[QUOTE][i]Originally posted by James [/i] [B][color=#335062]We will do our best to solve the problem though, which might possibly include moving to a new server.[/color] [/B][/QUOTE] [size=1]This is our third server in the past two years, isn't it?[/size] [QUOTE][i]Originally posted by Desbreko [/i] [B][color=indigo]Yes. I need my doses of OtakuBoards on-demand. Otherwise I get cranky and annoy people over AIM. And trust me, you do [i]not[/i] want to find yourself on the recieving end of one of those IMs. :twitch:[/color] [/B][/QUOTE] [size=1]The secret is to stay off your IMs until the boards go back up. I remember last summer when OB was down for a month and every day threee or four people would ask me when it would be up again. It got really annoying after a certain point. -Shy[/size]

[size=1]Silly rabbits, We already had a Trigun and Bebop forum. The reason both of these forums was removed is that they did not generate very much discussion and slowly died off. If we experience a sudden increase in Trigun threads we may one day consider bringing back the forum. RIght now the answer is no, and since this is in the wrong forum I will close this topic now. -Shy[/size]

[QUOTE][i]Originally posted by Mnemolth [/i] [B]This post was brought to you by whoever awarded me the best 'spar-rer'. You know who you are. And yes, its ALL YOUR FAULT! ;) [/B][/QUOTE] [size=1]Eh, I don't know how it is my fault. But whatever, this thread is too confusing for me to deal with right now..[/size] [QUOTE][i]Originally posted by Hittokiri Zero [/i] [B]The mods are definatly too strict -_o. They are not jackasses but they are too strict. OB is the only forum where I have seen people get banned and what not for bad grammer, now that's telling you something considering I have been at many forums... I think that the mod has to be more lax when it comes to grammer and what not as long as you can understand what the post says who cares if there is improper use of grammer. And if you are to ban someone because of grammer just make it a temporary ban or something -____o. And even though I understand what the mods are doing by closing some threads there are times in which I think there taking things to the extreme... Eh basically look at this thread ---> [url]http://www.otakuboards.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=25124[/url] Right done reading it o_O?... That was in no way flaming, that's just starting a debate. As long as he's not directing any insults at an individual posting he ---or anyone--- for matter of fact should be able to post something like that. :P... So basically if it's possible OB needs to be more open-minded, let someone post something "bad" about a individual series, it could start a good debate. (btw i'm not picking on Shy or anything, I just don't belive that, that particular thread needed to be closed o_o.) Other than that -_o... I guess the mods aren't half bad, OBs a nice place because you don't have the massive flame wars and true spam that you get over at XF x__X. [/B][/QUOTE] [size=1]Eh, eveyrone shouldn't have jumped to my defense about this particular thread. This thread wasn't direct flaming, but we have had a million Gundam Wing threads before, and I honestly can do without this sort of random bashing. I'm not the biggest DBZ fan in the world, so I very rarely ever post there. I would never go through the time to write a "Why I hate DBZ" thread because it is a complete waste. The anime forums are filled with younger members who cannot tell the difference betweem critcizing and flaming, so I really don't see the point in pushing my views upon them. This particular thread was not trying to create a discussion, as James pointed out, and I completely stand by my decision to close it. In the future, please PM me about these matters though.[/size] [QUOTE][i]Originally posted by Justin [/i] [B]Moderators suck, really. They're all Nazis. Hail Führer![/B][/QUOTE] [size=1]Yeah, we are. But you weren't supposed ot tell everyone about our little secret. Now James is oging to have to punish you. -Shy[/size]

[size=1]Welcome to Otaku Boards, enjoy your stay. Anyway, I need to say that your thread verges on flaming, which is strictly not tolerated in this forum. If you don't have anything nice to say about an anime series, then don't bother to post in that forum. Please be more careful about posting these sorts of ridiculous threads in the future, because they are not allowed. Thread closed. -Shy[/size]

[size=1]That is really funny, I love how he has Kaworu's head in a jar. That seems [i]exactly[/i] like the type of thing that Shinji would do, heh. Well, you said you made it in three minutes so I can't exactly compliment you on the artistic merit of this piece. The Final Seashore is where I got a lot of my previous avatars from; Shinji and Kaworu are the best EVa couple. Nice work. -Shy[/size]

[color=darkblue]Before I could receive my package another Goomba ran towards me with a small piece of paper in his mouth. "Mister Pac!" He shouted,"I have something important to show you!" Parakarry must have wandred off during this time, because when I turned around he had disappeared. I shrugged it off, and continued chatting with this Goomba. "S.H.E.L.L. has uncovered some startling information. Accoridng to our sources an assassin has entered the Mushroom Kingdom, and you are his target." The Goomba handed me the slip of paper in his mouth. I wiped it off on the grass for a little while, since it was soggy with the Goomba's spit. "What exactly do we have here?" I asked. "We believe that he is a bald, white male disguised as a Koopa Troopa."[/color] [center][IMG]http://www.otakuboards.com/attachment.php?postid=408232[/IMG][/center] [size=1][i]Artist's Rendering[/i][/size] [color=darkblue]He quickly gave me a recamp of the procedure that we should take. The Sephiroth battle was being taken care of as we spoke, while the 16-Bit Festival was still on schedule. "Don't worry Mister Pac," the Goomba said, "You will be completely safe once you get inside the castle."[/color]

[size=1]That's not a bad idea, actually. We could make a big Event at the end of the calendar year, and the most popular anime/gaming series would be made. The problem is that people [i]wanting[/i] a Naruto forum is completely different from them [i]oisting[/i] in one. Even though Yu Yu Hakusho is extremely popular right now, only a few people regularly post in the forum. .hack//SIGN is doing a little better, but it all depends on the series. Digimon is considered a children's series, whuke it is actually our most popular anime forum. [url=http://www.otakuboards.com/showthread.php?threadid=24654]A Naruto thread in Anime Lounge only has seven posts, so there isn't much of a demand right now.[/url] -Shy[/size]

I can't believe you let me on staff, and eventually put me on as a Category Mod. Oh well, hopefully I have done an adequate job. I can never thank you enough for what you said/wrote to me when I was going through a really hard time (you know what I'm talking about.) You are a great friend, even though time zones prevent us from talking more often. -[i]Shy[/i] [i]Tony[/i]- Thanks for the fan club, and all of the interesting discussions we have had.

[color=darkblue]During Ulala's extensive interview of Mario I snuck out onto the castle courtyard for a short break. Koopa Troopas were carrying around decorations for the 16-Bit Festival, while a pair of Lakitus adjusted a large banner over the drawbridge. It was a nice day in the Mushroom Kingdom, but I couldn't help but think of how unfortunate it was that not everyone in the gaming world could enjoy it. I heard a faint buzzing noise from aboce, and quickly grew nervous. What if we were under attack from an airship? Before I could alert those dragons at the Bust-A-Move cannon a small round object fell from the sky and crashed onto my head (Not a surprise, since my head is 80% of my body.) "Ouch!" I screamed, "What was that?" "Sorry," said a small voice coming from a nearbye bush. Upon closer inspection I realized that the round object was really a Koopa shell. I slowly picked it up and tossed it into the bush. [size=3][center][b]Bonk![/b][/center][/size] "Ow!" the voice said. "Oops," I said, "Is that turtle shell yours?" From my vantage point I could spot the familiar colors of a Paratroopa. A moment later it talked out carrying it's shell, flight goggles and a leather pouch. "Thanks a bunch," the Paratroopa said, "I was delivering mail to the Mushroom Kingdom when something landed on my head, sending me and my shell in completely opposite directions. My name is Parakarry." There was an awkward pause between us. This is the longest period of time I had ever spent with a minion before. Someone such as myself tends to swallow these sorts of people in large numbers, rather than make an idle chat. For the next 30 minutes or so we had a very nice conversation. It turns out that he delivered mail all over the Mushroom Kingdom, and had a special package for me. Little did I know that his small box would change the entire course of the war...[/color]
