[QUOTE][i]Originally posted by Deranged Gerbil [/i] [B]is Hbomb even an admin here anymore? :rolleyes: [/B][/QUOTE] He's not an admin (there are only two) and I haven't seen him around much. He's on AIM every so often, but not on OtakuBoards. Maybe he lost interest. *shrug*

[QUOTE][i]Originally posted by PiroMunkie [/i] [B] [SIZE=1]Ooooo :eek: Another Manson fan! Woohoo! "Beautiful People is my favorite of his.. and with Korn, "Got the Life" is their best song.[/SIZE] [/B][/QUOTE] Yep, I forgot to mention that :) Got the Life is really sweet.

[QUOTE][i]Originally posted by Deranged Gerbil [/i] [B]aiight, I await his return to have a decent conversation with him and to finally see why everyone likes him so much [/B][/QUOTE] Well, regardless of ego...he was very supportive when Transtic "came out" a little while ago. So that should tell you something about his personality: he's a good person. And I'm sure that you would appreciate that quality :)

[QUOTE][i]Originally posted by Deranged Gerbil [/i] [B] gods ARE admins, you silly :rolleyes: for security purposes, adam is the only one who has the admin title by his name, so that no one else can have access to the deep control panel of the boards [/B][/QUOTE] There are three levels of staff. Moderators Super Moderators (Gods) Administrators As you mentioned, for security reasons, it was our decision to restrict access to the Control Panel for 99% of staff. However, this idea has become unworkable. So now, only Adam and myself have 100% power. Gods are like admins, but with restricted powers. They still have a high level of authority; I consider Sephiroth the third highest ranking staff member here.

[QUOTE][i]Originally posted by Cecil [/i] [B]Umm... well im not really infromed about this kinda of stuff so i hope no one is affened but what hetersexual? Umm... I also thought gays chose to be that way but that was what i was told... i dont hate them or anything... [/B][/QUOTE] Well, heterosexual means that you are attracted to the opposite sex. I think that it's quite obvious that people don't choose their sexuality. There are a few reasons for that. One is the fact that, for those people who are heterosexual, do you actually decide to like the opposite sex? Of course not. You like the opposite sex because you were born that way. The same is true for homosexuals/bisexuals. In my opinion, I don't care whether a couple is same sex or opposite sex. I mean, there are so many people out there committing crime and doing all kinds of bad things...but why punish people just because they're in love? Surely we should promote love rather than be against it. It's really a bias that people are raised with. It's a shame...and it will change, just as racism is getting better, so too will other kinds of discrimination. I commend people like Transtic and Gerbil for posting their sexuality in their sigs. Sure, it's not necessary, but I think that they are bold for doing it publically, especially with all the people who don't accept it.

[QUOTE][i]Originally posted by Deranged Gerbil [/i] [B]thats a cool avatar james! :) [/B][/QUOTE] Why thank you. :) Adam is Yamuchi...I am Miyamoto. The perfect duo. hehe Actually, I'll probably end up changing my avatar in a week lol. I am very fickle...I can never decide on the right avatar. The Miyamoto one is good tho, but it's not really very "custom". I usually like to make my own. I might make one with Miyamoto on it, but a little different.

[QUOTE][i]Originally posted by kuja [/i] [B] [SIZE=3][FONT=century gothic][COLOR=crimson]uh wrong... FF7 set ALL kinds of records when it came out... zelda didnt... a lot more people have FF then zelda... thou they are both great games FF is better by leaps and bounds... mainly the stuff that comes from a CD not a cartrige thou... i think some CGI woulda helped zelda a lot... oh well it was still a good game and well worth 50 bucks... thou not 60 like MM is still selling for[/COLOR][/FONT][/SIZE] [/B][/QUOTE] Ocarina of Time's gameplay was so much more innovative than Final Fantasy VII though. FFVII was merely a visual update to the older games. I love FF to death...and I also love Zelda. But Zelda is a far more innovative video game by far. Of course, they are also two very different games in their own right.

Yeah, yeah. Don't worry BabyGirl, I remembered your compliment, I just meant that two people had said that I looked good lol Tien reminded me, now there are four. Woo hoo! :)

[QUOTE][i]Originally posted by Deranged Gerbil [/i] [B]actually, homer simpson was banned by safer in the old boards, where safer had the capability to make IP bans btw james, why is it safer does not have the capability to make IP bans? if he's an admin and all then shouldn't he have the capability to make IP bans since he is the most active admin (when he's around) [/B][/QUOTE] Well, I'm just as active as Sephiroth in terms of talking with people on here. We essentially have three levels of people. Moderators, Super Moderators (GODs) and Administrators. We have a reduced number of Admins for security purposes.

[QUOTE][i]Originally posted by Soft mush [/i] [B] who died and put you in charge. GO SIXTH ! ! ! And that's why I'm still here Mr. Fish. [/B][/QUOTE] I don't know how anyone can encourage a trouble maker. It's the most useless pursuit I've ever seen... ...anyone who sits here spamming all day must really have no outside life at all. lol

[QUOTE][i]Originally posted by BabyGirl [/i] [B] [color=deeppink]Heh, that's one of the rings available on my cell phone...:D[/color] [/B][/QUOTE] Hehe...I don't even know if I spelt it correctly. It's a good track though. As you can see, my music taste is really varied. I like almost any kind of music. The only music I don't like is rap, r&b and country.

[QUOTE][i]Originally posted by Deranged Gerbil [/i] [B] I talked to him on aim before, he don't seem to bad a guy, but he can be a reeeeeal bastard when he wants to be :mad: [/B][/QUOTE] Yeah, but really...[i]anyone[/i] can be a bastard if they want to be. Yes...even me, as hard as that is to believe. ;)

[QUOTE][i]Originally posted by Deranged Gerbil [/i] [B]ya don't look too bad james, if I do say so :) [/B][/QUOTE] Thank you. hehe Wow...that's two people who like how I look. I'm slowly climbin' up the ladder. :)

Hmm...a tough one. My all time favourite song is For an Angel by Paul van Dyk. Then...from what I can think of... "Fields of Love" - ATB "Ride" - BT "Flaming June" - PvD/BT "Believer" - BT "9PM" - ATB "Disposable Teens" - Marilyn Manson "Beautiful People" - Marilyn Manson "Engel" - Rammstein "Tier" - Rammstein "Links 1 2 3" - Rammstein "Finished Symphony" - Hybrid "Theme From Wide Angle" - Hybrid "Words for Love" - Paul van Dyk "Tell Me Why (Radio or Club Mix)" - Paul van Dyk "Pikes" - Paul van Dyk "Roaches" - Trancesetters "Feel the Beat" - Darude "Synaesthesia" - The Thrillseekers "Four Seasons" - Vivaldi "Toccata and Fugue in D Minor" - I can't remember the artist lol "One for the Road" - Bexta "Darkside" - Pills "Freak on a Leash" - Korn "We Come One" - Faithless "Icaras" - Sasha "Feisar" - Sasha "Encore Une Fois (original)" - Sash "Little River" - Sash Whew. They are the songs which come to mind right now. There are LOTS more. My CD collection is HUGE. :)

[QUOTE][i]Originally posted by Tien [/i] [B] i was meaning to be rude, or doing spam, i just dont understand thats all, And i aint turning like Thimoc or Gendo. [/B][/QUOTE] I didn't mean that. I meant that Bob is another disgruntled member.

[QUOTE][i]Originally posted by Tien [/i] [B]Who the hell is that guy? [/B][/QUOTE] Yet another disgruntled former member, like Gendo and Thimoc. It's funny how people who are good posters...who have relevant things to say can actually end up totally turning around and becoming trouble makers. I'll never understand it.

[QUOTE][i]Originally posted by Shinji v2.0 [/i] [B] [SIZE=1][COLOR=darkred]Are you retarded or just plain stupid? Safers ego is bigger than mine. He is the most head strong ******* on the boards. Look at his sig. "I am not a mod, I am GOD. Think of me as GOD.", "Honk if you like Safer". Man, I bet that guy eats Cream of Himself soup all the time. Also, I forgot to mention...I respect Voodoo Kanaka too...And if Derranged Gerbil isn't thimoc, then I respect him too. I don't know you, but I probobly hate you. Shinji (^_^)/[/COLOR][/SIZE] [/B][/QUOTE] Well, I can understand how it may look that way on the surface. But do you talk to Sephiroth regularly on AIM? I do. And I can tell you, he has a great personality. He [i]does[/i] seem to be a little preoccupied by titles and hierarchy, but that's just his personality. He's a good person to know...and he's pretty down to earth when you talk to him regularly.

[QUOTE][i]Originally posted by BabyGirl [/i] [B] [color=deeppink]Oh God, Kiwi, I can't believe you gave in! He asked me too, but I was like "um....no." You poor, poor girl. Oh wait, an IM just popped up, it is Bob saying "Kiwi was nice enough to ask for me." Good lord, grow up :rolleyes: [/color] [/B][/QUOTE] Yes, some people when banned seem to cling onto the site like a fly on...er...nothing. :babble: But what can I say, some people learn their lessons too late.

[QUOTE][i]Originally posted by SSJGoten [/i] [B] AHHHHHH man! But i heard that firemac does spam. that hed have about 150 more post if no one was a mod for digimon and FF forums.DANGT! [/B][/QUOTE] Well, that's an issue for our moderators to deal with. I haven't had any major complaints from moderators myself though. If I get enough complaints about a member, then I usually act on it.

[QUOTE][i]Originally posted by Ice Dragon v2 [/i] [B]oh thats cool last day of school n u guys dress in costumes [/B][/QUOTE] Yeah, it's kind of a tradition. Some people had really wild stuff lol, but I decided to be low-key.

[QUOTE][i]Originally posted by Baby Kiwi [/i] [B][COLOR=crimson]Bob wanted me to ask why he got banned from the boards...Can anyone enlighten me so I can tell him why?[/COLOR] :) [/B][/QUOTE] I can't believe he asked you to ask lol. I had recieved a number of complaints about his behaviour and language on our boards from various members and moderators. Subsequently, he was banned. People seem to forget that breaching the rules significantly enough equals a ban. In addition, he spoke to me on AIM and verbally abused me for it. That is [i]not[/i] the way to get yourself unbanned, folks. If he had a legitimate problem with it, he could have talked to me calmly. As a result, I think he should find some other boards to post at.

[QUOTE][i]Originally posted by SSJGoten [/i] [B]Soo umm whoever joins get banned for good right? So that would mean Tec-9, firemac and final flash would get banned. sweet. [/B][/QUOTE] I am most concerned about ringleaders. Tec-9 has been banned, but I won't ban the others unless they spam.

I agree. Just a warning to anyone wanting to join a "spamming group". You will be permanently banned if you do so.

[QUOTE][i]Originally posted by Ice Dragon v2 [/i] [B]well james with that pic, it made u look like u joined the marines or something [/B][/QUOTE] Yep lol, the rest of the picture was really stupid. It was for the last day of school when everyone was dressing in costumes.

[QUOTE][i]Originally posted by Ice Dragon v2 [/i] [B]im not even gonna bother to ask you on what grade youre in james [/B][/QUOTE] I graduated high school last year. I'm about to start a University course :)
