[color=Blue]This seems like the most appropriate thread to post this in seeing as the original discussion was about the header image. I just noticed a second ago that the image has been changed. Personally, I didn't mind the other one but this new picture is really nice. [/color]

[color=Blue]Duplicate threads are not allowed here. Please use the other [url=http://www.otakuboards.com/showthread.php?t=49233]Silent Hill Movie[/url] thread if you'd like to talk about the movie.

[QUOTE=James][color=#332e1d][font=franklin gothic medium]I don't really think that we need to compromise with something like this. If we have an introduction forum, we'll then get people who say that we need a "testing forum" and that it wouldn't hurt because it'd give people a place to put their spam. Basically, it's no big challenge for Moderators to remove intro threads. It takes a second to kill each one off. I hire Moderators for that specific purpose - to moderate. What else would they be doing, really? If they aren't moderating...then they aren't Moderators. lol I am usually willing to offer a compromise in certain areas, but I don't think it's necessary to have an intro forum. Having one would probably be detrimental. I mean, think about it - that's the first place new members visit. If all they see is crap, they will think that posting crap all over the site is acceptable. You know? I'd rather that the first thing they see is clear, coherent posts site-wide. That gives an infinitely better impression. And it lets them know what they're in for, so that they can choose whether or not they'd like to stay.[/font][/color][/QUOTE][font=Verdana][color=blue]That should sufficiently remove any confusion as to whether or not there will be an introduction forum created. The original thread where this was posted can be found [url="http://www.otakuboards.com/showthread.php?t=48350"]here[/url].[/color][/font]

[color=Blue]I do not see this thread producing any type of meaningful discussion at all. The only thing that will result is a thread full of two-word (or around there anyway), content-less posts. Thread closed. [/color]

[quote name='Generic NPC #3']If anything, I think both companies should increase the warranty time to a year... like Nintendo has had for as long as I can remember.[/quote][font=Verdana][color=blue]I completely agree with you here. A one-year warranty would give you enough time to see if the system needs to be replaced. 90 days just isn't enough. Of course, Nintendo has always been good with that sort of thing. It's too bad that trend hasn't caught on with the other two companies.[/color][/font]

[font=Verdana][color=blue]I know that #xxxxxx works for what you're trying to do. It seems to only work if you use that value for Site Border Color, Inner Background Color, [i]and[/i] Menu Color though.[/color][/font] [font=Verdana][color=#0000ff][/color][/font] [font=Verdana][color=#0000ff]On a side note, this question seems to be asked a lot but in a thread where the answer gets lost pretty easily. Maybe we should put this information somewhere where it would be easy to see? Just a thought.[/color][/font]

[font=Verdana][color=blue]I had disk read problems with my first Xbox. I bought it at Best Buy and they did give me a new one for free. Since then, it has worked fine. I don't know if Microsoft themselves had anything to do with the replacement though. I do know that Microsoft did provide free power cord replacements when they found out that some extremely small fraction of the total original cords could cause an internal fire in the Xbox.[/color][/font] [font=Verdana][color=blue][/color][/font] [font=Verdana][color=blue]With my original PS2 though, it pretty much refuses to read games anymore. There's the lucky one out of a hundred (almost literally) tries where the game will start but it will end up failing later anyway. I was never sure if Sony was actually replacing them though. Do you know if they're still doing it?[/color][/font] [font=Verdana][color=blue][/color][/font] [font=Verdana][color=blue]And as for the next-gen systems, I'd hope to avoid problems like this but chances are, there will be some. I just hope they'll still replace the defective systems for free.[/color][/font]

[font=Verdana][color=blue]The last post in this thread before yesterday was over a year ago. Please do not bring back threads that are this old.

[font=Verdana][color=blue]Welcome to OtakuBoards, Fighttheworld. There are a couple of things I'd like to point out about your post. First of all, this thread is over a year old. We ask that you don't bring back threads that are this old. If you'd like to talk about Female Singers, you are free to start another thread.[/color][/font] [font=Verdana][color=blue][/color][/font] [font=Verdana][color=blue]Second, copying and pasting entire passages from other websites and then adding a couple of words to the bottom is not allowed here. We look for well thought out posts with some real content in them. While copying another site may have some interesting facts, you did not write the post. Also, you didn't really say anything about what you copied which won't really promote discussion.[/color][/font] [font=Verdana][color=blue][/color][/font] [font=Verdana][color=blue]Please read the [url=http://www.otakuboards.com/rules.php?]Rules[/url] and [url=http://www.otakuboards.com/faq.php?]FAQ[/url] before you continue posting. If you have any questions, feel free to PM me or any other Moderator.[/color][/font] [font=Verdana][color=blue][/color][/font] [font=Verdana][color=blue]Thread closed.[/color][/font]

[color=Blue]I don't think this is a problem that can be solved by editing the template HTML of the site. I took a look at the script that's being called by the counter and I think I may see the problem. [code]ref=document.referrer;sw="none"; sd="none";sw=screen.width;sc=screen.colorDepth; qs = "&ref="+escape(ref)+"&sw="+escape(sw)+"&sc="+escape(sc); document.write('');[/code]The problem there is the document.write(''). When it's called from the head of the document, it writes directly to the top of the page. Seeing as it's not writing anything, that statement is probably the cause of the white space. It is an odd problem though because if it was writing anything from the head, it ends up replacing all of the content on the page so the one-pixel line of white space isn't making much sense. I'm at school right now and I'm not seeing it on any of the Mac browsers. And as mentioned before, it doesn't show up in Firefox for the PC. It doesn't really bother me but if you feel like trying to fix it, that's most likely your problem. I don't really know if you could do much with it though seeing as that isn't OtakuBoards code.

[quote name='DuBB3D']well isnt the new nintendo only playing the old games?!? well wats the use of tht with newer things coming out. because ure pretty much bettr off buyin the old system n the old game instead of buyin a new system tht the only thing it does is save space on ure surge protector..[/quote][font=Verdana][color=blue]I'm not sure where you got your information but you might want to check your sources as what you said is completely wrong. Nintendo is not just releasing another GameCube in a new shell. It's a whole new system with new games and new hardware. The fact that it can play older games only adds to its appeal.[/color][/font] [font=Verdana][color=blue][/color][/font] [font=Verdana][color=blue]You will be able to play your GameCube games, and using original GameCube controllers too, but that does not mean there will be no new games to plan on Revolution. Had you read any of the previous posts in this thread or even just information from a trusted site, you probably would have known this. So, if you're blowing off Revolution because you think there's nothing new to it, I'd advise you do some reading ^_^[/color][/font]

[QUOTE=SunfallE]I wouldn't call it a gap, but for me it is a space about 1 pixel wide that is white instead of black like the rest of the border. That applies to the left side just above where it says Welcome: username as well. Though truthfully until I saw this thread I didn't think anything of it. It doesn't bother me and I don't find it distracting.[/QUOTE][font=Verdana][color=blue]That I actually do see. I never really noticed it until I really looked at the top of the page. I noticed it before but I really didn't consider it an issue as it doesn't bother me at all and like I said, I never even noticed it until now.[/color][/font]

[font=Verdana][color=blue]I'm using IE (PC) right now and there is (and never has been) a white margin at the top of the page. I'm not sure there is anything to be taken care of in that respect.[/color][/font] [font=Verdana][color=blue]And as for the design, I like it but as James said, some will and some won't. That's really all there is to it.[/color][/font] [font=Verdana][color=#0000ff][/color][/font] [b][font=Verdana][color=#0000ff]Edit:[/color][/font][/b] [font=Verdana][color=#0000ff]Hehe, I originally said Justin instead of James. I was in school at the time and was actually talking to someone named Justin, which was probably the cause ^_^[/color][/font]

[color=Blue]Noside, thank you for the follow-up. I'm happy to know that combos can be broken. I guess it's just a matter of timing. I've seen the anime but not much of it. At least the single-scene special moves have some relevance to something. I just thought they were lazy ^_^ The one point I do disagree with you on is the fruit thing. While I don't think charging power like in DBZ would be good for this game, I still don't like the fruit. I just don't like the whole idea of picking up objects for energy, especially considering that they're not always there or you can't always get to them. In DBZ, charging or hitting your opponent to get energy works perfectly. In a well-balanced battle, things are extremely fast paced and your energy is constantly going up because of it. It lets you use ultimate attacks and dragon rushes more often than you'd think (this is Budokai 3 we're talking about, just to clarify). So in that sense, it's not the fact that it's fruit that bothers me. I don't like the item pick-up to regain energy idea at all. I guess it does work though so I won't complain further than this.[/color]

[font=Verdana][color=#0000ff]This thread is almost three years old and we currently have an active Gorillaz thread [url="http://www.otakuboards.com/showthread.php?t=49922"]here[/url]. You are free to discuss anything relating to The Gorillaz there.[/color][/font] [font=Verdana][color=#0000ff]Please do not bring back long dead threads.[/color][/font] [font=Verdana][color=#0000ff]Thread closed.[/color][/font]

[color=blue]I actually just played [i]One Piece: Grand Battle[/i] for the first time tonight. I must say, it was better than I was expecting though after playing Budokai 3, it left something to be desired.[/color] [color=blue][/color] [color=blue]There are a few problems I have with it though. The first problem is that there is no way to break a combo once it's been started (as far as I could tell. I did only play three matches though). Second, I'm not a big fan of the flash to another world and back for a secret move. It shows that the programmers were sort of lazy and didn't feel like coding the special moves for each level, so they gave them their own. Finally, I wasn't too crazy about the fruit thing, but overall, it wasn't bad.[/color]

[font=Verdana][color=blue]This thread really does not seem to serve a purpose. You asked a question and answered it in the same post. And it wasn't even a question that could have really promoted much discussion. You did list a few bands and you did mention adult swim but other than that, your post does not contain much content.[/color][/font] [font=Verdana][color=blue][/color][/font] [font=Verdana][color=blue]Thread closed.[/color][/font]

[font=Verdana][color=blue]It should be fine as Disk Cleanup application that you can run from the properties page of the disk gives you the option to delete them. There's no harm in leaving them unless you need the space though.[/color][/font]

[quote name='Inuyasha7271']They did what are you kidding why do you have that as a spoiler Petie if it comes out in less than a month every by now should have seen that on the internet or on a review for the game.[/quote][font=Verdana][color=blue]I added the spoiler because chances are, there are some people on this site that do not know that and I don't want to ruin anything for anyone. If you're not sure, it's always better to add the spoiler tags than to leave them out.[/color][/font] [font=Verdana][color=#0000ff][/color][/font] [font=Verdana][color=#0000ff]Also, please use proper grammar and punctuation when you post. It took me a minute to figure out what you were trying to say because your entire post is one, long sentence. (Shinmaru, I know this is not my forum to moderate but I figured I'd mention it while I was replying).[/color][/font]

[font=Verdana][color=blue]I'm going to have to say my favorite anime-based game is Dragon Ball Z: Budokai 3. Now, I am not usually a fan of fighting games (there are only a few I like) but this game got me hooked right away. There's just something about the number of characters, different moves, and constant motion and action of the battles that just keeps me coming back for more. I couldn't get enough of it from the very first time I played at my friend's house and then a bunch of my friends started playing it. It kept us occupied for a long time and I'm still playing it a bit today (in preparation for the next game in the series).[/color][/font] [font=Verdana][color=blue][/color][/font] [font=Verdana][color=blue]That said, I'm also looking forward to Budokai Tenkaichi very much. I'm a bit disappointed that they [spoiler]did away with the transformations, opting instead to make each transformation a separate character,[/spoiler] though I can see that also being sort of interesting. Luckily, I'll be able to tell first hand soon as it comes out next Tuesday or Wednesday.[/color][/font]

[font=Verdana][color=blue]Qman1, this is your second warning about double posting in this thread alone. And, according to one of your own posts in this thread, this is at least your third warning overall. You are not allowed to double post at OtakuBoards. If you want to say more after your initial post, use the edit button. That's why it's there.[/color][/font] [font=Verdana][color=blue]I'm tempted to just close this thread but I'll give it one more chance.[/color][/font]

[color=Blue]BunnieGirl, I deleted both of your posts for a couple of reasons. First of all, double posting is not allowed at OtakuBoards. If you want to say more after you posted (and before someone else posts), please use the Edit button at the bottom right hand corner of your post. This helps to reduce clutter. Secondly, neither of your posts really had any point. The would not have promoted further discussion and did not add to the current discussion. Before you continue posting, I'd like to direct you to the [url=http://www.otakuboards.com/rules.php?]Rules[/url] and [url=http://www.otakuboards.com/faq.php?]FAQ[/url], both of which are located to the left as well. If you have any questions, feel free to PM me or any other Moderator. [/color]

[font=Verdana][color=blue]nika2999, for future reference, please be sure to add some actual content to your posts. Just saying that you like a band really isn't enough to promote any meaningful discussion. Explain [i]why[/i] you like the bands you mentioned.[/color][/font] [font=Verdana][color=blue][/color][/font] [font=Verdana][color=blue]I'll leave this thread open on the condition that you add some content to your post and that the following posts are not simple "I like them" or "I don't like them" answers. I only mention this because as of now, this thread will generally only generate one-word caliber answers. If it gets too spammy, this thread will be closed.[/color][/font]
