People are all liars

Terminus Est — Sun, 05 Jul 2009 23:03:20 GMT

I found this program that lets you know who on MSN blocked or deleted you, by comparing your list of contacts with that of the MSN servers. http://www.checkmessenger2.net/en/z/check-messenger/ Well it is none of my business, but I find it extremely upsetting and disappointing that people would lie to me about either never being online or always going as invisible when they have, in fact, pretty much got rid of me. I mean how come people have to lie over the internet. All these fucking ...

Random Computer Quotes and One-Liners

JET73L — Mon, 08 Jun 2009 16:46:31 GMT

Warning, some of these are fervently anti-Windows. But then again, Windows is like the Acceptable Target of the computer world. I didn't make these up, most of them have been circulating for a while, just thought I might post something new on the forum. "640K ought to be enough for anybody." - This is not humorous by itself; but in the context it's a classic by Bill Gates in 1981 Microsoft: "You've got questions. We've got dancing paperclips."

FFNET is Dead! XD

Terminus Est — Sun, 17 May 2009 19:36:24 GMT

Greetings yall, I guess this forum came in handy finally ha ha. Well, the server for Ffnet is down, and Kota and Kain cannot fix it. It is up to Alex to do something about it, but who knows when, and if, this shall ever occur ha ha. Kota is willing to give us a space on KH3 so that we have a place to chat and meet, look for it on KH3 later tonight. Samantha is currently working on notifying all the Ffnet members via e-mail, and we can also use this place.

Sucky Sequels

JET73L — Sun, 23 Nov 2008 08:16:59 GMT

In this thread, we pitch a proposal of awful sequels to classic, or even recent movies. For example: Citizen Kane 2: Citizen Corpse In order to find out what the words Rose Bud meant, the reporter uses dark magic to summon the man back from the dead. However, it backfires, and brings back everyone in the graveyard. The one thing infulfilled or mnost missed in their lives, they seek to do- and this reporter has a lot of people whose last wish was to kill that blasted reported who soiled ...

Quick question - what does anyone know about psychometry as I think I've got it.

"Wait... What?" Video Game style

JET73L — Sat, 21 Mar 2009 03:54:57 GMT

You've stayed at the inn in a game, right? And you've played games with day/night systems? Well, I know I've spent over 370 days in Dragon Quest VIII, and I've stayed at the inns in FFVII at least a thousand times. Yet nobody ever has a birthday. Characters need birthday parties, too! Or at least a mention of it. They could even make it punishment for wasting your time: If you reach 50, your character becomes old, and gets a stat decrease (but if you reach 80, they become Elders and get a stat ...

Skins

DarknezzCommunity 2 (Dante990) Higure-Subs layout (higure) The World of Ushinau (brokengem) I went through all of the skins on Forumotion, and frankly, these are the only ones for which I liked both the colours and styles for (and I don't really like the 3rd for SE, I just find it tranquil and think it would look nice, if we ever got used to it). And, Termie, I was actually thinking of setting up a garbage forum on Forumotion, for practice, so we could see if there's ...

The New Halloween Skin

Terminus Est — Thu, 02 Oct 2008 08:37:03 GMT

I have been working on a skin we can use for October, and to commemorate Autumn and Halloween as a whole. I am not sure though, that you will like it. For some reason, the selection of the colour "orange" is quite limited, and so, was forced to use much red and yellow in its stead. As for the icons, I will look for more as soon as I get a confirmation that people wish to use this. I have found some neat ones I reworked a little, for the main icons that we usually see, so you get ...

JET73L — Sun, 15 Feb 2009 06:00:55 GMT

Discuss. Characters, story arcs, the upcoming animated adaptation. Characters: Cale's cool. Richard's funny. The green female of unknown or forgotten species is cool, and acts as a good catalyst for Richard and Cale to not clash completely/. The Bloodrage is awesome. The dwarf is as yet not very interesting, but looks like she's going to get some decent background characterization after or at the end of the current arc. The ogre is not as funny as the author seems tro think. ...

Death to Whisperwind Cove

Mr. Midgar — Thu, 02 Oct 2008 05:34:00 GMT

Mr Midgar shuffles down the back alley in the dead of night, avoiding all eyes and carefully concealing a package within the inside of his jacket. The sound of the ocean's surf can be subtley heard beyond the line of abandoned warehouses. As his eyes adjust to the darkness he sees a perfect location for his next move. He crosses the cobblestone lane and nears the back of a dumpster. He takes out the package from his jacket and carefully places it on the ground beside the end of a drainpipe. ...

This shall be on the discussion of Webcomics. If you have another form of internet media that you happen to like, such as an online film or written series, please, go ahead and make a thread to share your views on it with the rest of the forum. I shall first start with a list of webcomics I currently have favorited. Alas, I lost a number of series when transferring from the desktop, but these are the series that I am currently reading, or plan to do an archive binge of before deciding whether ...

Favorite Anime/Games

We all know of games based on ani,e, and anime based on games. What is your favorite for each? My favorite anime based on a game (that I have seen and can remember) is probably .hack//sign. Pokemon would be the first anime most people think of, especially considering that although the start of the show was somewhat interesting, but it got really really awful after the first few seasons. the manga was much better. (and no, I have seen none of the FF7 anime beyond half an episode on YouTube, ...

Oh, and its pretty long, so I'll put it in spoiler tags. Spoiler:Wasteland of the Gods High Concept Wasteland of the Gods is the hit that will rock the ...

Watching Wounds

Mr. Midgar — Wed, 12 Nov 2008 04:20:10 GMT

About a week and a half ago I was savagely attacked by a crazed gravy boat. The details are unimportant, but what is important was the fact that I was horribly burned in the process... on the top of my right hand. It stung for a bitch for about an hour and then it felt fine when I rested it in a bucket of ice water. Now the reason I am telling you this is because since this incident happened I have rather enjoyed watching the burn heal. It looks dreadful (some flesh melted right off, ...

I will discuss different topics over time, and I can answer some questions about ...

Yup, I know what they mean So I'm offering to read them for anyone interested, whether for a deep insight into their personality or just for the fun of it really. It's far removed from the stupid horoscopes in newspapers- advanced Astrology actually has its basis in maths and science, and is more to do with planetary magnetism than any strange mythology. Natal charts map the position of the planets in our solar system in the sky at your birth, as well as the sun and the moon. According ...

So, insert parenthesis " around the name of the person you are quoting-and obviously, the first quote has an ...

Firesnakious — Tue, 29 Jan 2008 11:15:15 GMT

Um I think the forum has done that itself, the French looks like it says something about the volume of posts in the thread, so it broke it and put a link to the other one, for some reason. I could only loosely translate it, since I know very little French. Though why it's appeared in my sig I have no idea!

What do you guys know about Ravens in mythology? I remember only two references to them in mythology, and both suggest different aspects of what a raven could be an omen or a symbol for. In Norse Mythology, there are two ravens who are Odin's pets and are seen as symbols of knowledge and good luck. Yet, in native American mythology, the Raven is often seen as a cunning and deceitful trickster, along the same lines as the coyote(sp?) and often as a bad omen. Generally, in today's world, ...

It's weird because the leaves have already started falling this year and there are chestnuts to be found, which usually aren't expected for a month.
