| + | [20:39] Break Miyama: Greetings. |
| | | | |
| - | BurkeyJ15: lol
| + | [20:41] Createdandmade: howdy, what's up? |
| | | | |
| - | Break Miyama: Josh, do you want to start? | + | [20:41] Break Miyama: Not much. I'm merely....bored. |
| | | | |
| - | BurkeyJ15: You should i'm kinda multitasking lol
| + | [20:42] Createdandmade: so you talk to me when you're bored? therefore I entertain you? YAY!!!! |
| | | | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: I think you should just say it cause ya'll are making me nervous
| + | [20:42] Break Miyama: >_> Well, think what you will. |
| | | | |
| - | Break Miyama: Oboy, how to put this....
| + | [20:42] Createdandmade: I normally do. |
| | | | |
| - | Break Miyama: I'm not sure how much longer we can keep going to ZA. | + | [20:42] Break Miyama: Perhaps this may be interpreted as "I haven't much better things to do". |
| | | | |
| - | Break Miyama: This is through no fault of your own, but we can't STAND the members.
| + | [20:43] Createdandmade: but talking to me is still better than killing yourself. so YAY!!! |
| | | | |
| - | BurkeyJ15: Not all of the members.
| + | [20:43] Break Miyama: o_) |
| | | | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: Hahahaha. Who specifically. I will name no names to them I will just mention problems to calm it down.
| + | [20:43] Break Miyama: o_0 |
| | | | |
| - | Break Miyama: Yeah. However, our annoyance is at such a majority of them - we can't quite ignore it. | + | [20:43] Break Miyama: Killing myself? I haven't a clue as to why I would do such a thing. |
| | | | |
| - | Break Miyama: You will be here for a while if we start naming names.
| + | [20:44] Createdandmade: hopefully you wouldn't |
| | | | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: That's fine.
| + | [20:45] Break Miyama: It's an illogical and ultimately selfish act. |
| | | | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: An administrator has to do his job
| + | [20:45] Createdandmade: that it is |
| | | | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: My game can wait.
| + | [20:46] Break Miyama: Akin to obsession or an inferiority complex. |
| | | | |
| - | Break Miyama: No, I mean...gah, it's a tad tough to explain. | + | [20:46] Break Miyama: THe latter of which bothers me greatly, as I know someone who has such a complex to a great degree. |
| | | | |
| - | Break Miyama: I might have to dig out some chat logs to really get the full effect. | + | [20:46] Break Miyama: Pardon if I am shoveling my thoughts upon you, but will you hear me out? |
| | | | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: Just explain to me in as much detail as you can without going overboard what problems you have with who and I can start workin stuff
| + | [20:47] Createdandmade: of course |
| | | | |
| - | Break Miyama: I believe I was able to rant out the behavior that I believe tends to permeate ZA as a whole. | + | [20:47] Break Miyama: To begin with, I'm sure you've heard of the college of UCLA, correct? |
| | | | |
| - | BurkeyJ15: I'll say my piece when Break is done.
| + | [20:48] Createdandmade: yes |
| | | | |
| - | BurkeyJ15: My opinions don't necessarily match his.
| + | [20:48] Break Miyama: A friend - and I use the term in a fairly loose sense - thinks that she will not get in. |
| | | | |
| - | : Your previous message has not been sent. Reason: Maximum length (232) exceeded. You can recall the last message typed with Ctrl-Up or Up, depending on settings. | + | [20:49] Break Miyama: She has a GPA above 4.0, and scored well above 2200 on her practice SAT exam, which bodes well, seeing as her |
| | + | score will likely improve when she does take the actual exam. |
| | | | |
| - | : Your previous message has not been sent. Reason: Maximum length (232) exceeded. You can recall the last message typed with Ctrl-Up or Up, depending on settings. | + | [20:50] Break Miyama: Of course, this is not my problem, but her attitude concerning the entire ordeal is simply pathetic and |
| | + | selfish. |
| | | | |
| - | Break Miyama: Hm. | + | [20:50] Break Miyama: It annoys me greatly. |
| | | | |
| - | Break Miyama: It's going past the maximum length.
| + | [20:50] Createdandmade: have you told her that? |
| | | | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: IM me
| + | [20:50] Break Miyama: Yes. |
| | | | |
| - | Break Miyama: That's fine, I'll summarize. | + | [20:51] Break Miyama: Many times. |
| | | | |
| - | Break Miyama: The community really seems as if they are mindless and ignorant and a whole. | + | [20:51] Break Miyama: She insists that she will not get into college with no less than a 2400 SAT score, and a |
| | + | four-point-god-knows-what GPA. |
| | | | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: Well.....they are a whole bunch of 13-16 year olds (minus those of us that are a bit older than them)
| + | [20:52] Break Miyama: Because she is Japanese, she also says that any affirmative action programs in place will decrease her chances |
| | + | of getting in, due to the already high amount of Asian students present. |
| | | | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: So...I can't expect much more from them.
| + | [20:53] Break Miyama: The attitude is obviously pathetic and unrealistic, but some explanation is required as to why I consider it |
| | + | selfish. |
| | | | |
| - | Break Miyama: That's probably where my problem lies, then. | + | [20:53] Break Miyama: That is, of course, disregarding the possibility that you may know why to begin with. |
| | | | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: Any specific action that is bothering you?
| + | [20:54] Createdandmade: it is disregarding that possibility isn't it? |
| | | | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: and I need to know members (not for persecution, just to discuss their posting habits)
| + | [20:55] Break Miyama: That depends. Do you know why such an attitude is selfish? |
| | | | |
| - | Break Miyama: Shoot, as soon as anyone shows the faintest glimmer of intelligence, they're revered as gods, which says little for the forum as a unit.
| + | [20:57] Createdandmade: I think it is selfish because then they are trying to get attention from others and are doing that by getting |
| | + | appaise from others, because they are telling her that she is wrong |
| | | | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: That's because I'd rather not go into deep discussions on the forum and the other people that go there frankly aren't capable of discussing anything in such a manner
| + | [20:57] Break Miyama: I'd agree were it not for the fact that she actually believes it. |
| | | | |
| - | Break Miyama: Yeah.....that's exactly the problem.
| + | [20:58] Createdandmade: then why is it selfish? |
| | | | |
| - | Break Miyama: It's not something tht can really change through your influence, sadly. | + | [20:59] Break Miyama: Because this attitude was conceived in utter ignorance of all else who apply for college. |
| | | | |
| - | Break Miyama: I simply can only tolerate so much when I see that behavior. | + | [21:00] Break Miyama: I, myself, am Asian. My SAT scores and GPA are well below hers. |
| | | | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: I understand. However, I can't attract those kinds of people just because I chose not to partake in "discussion" forums.
| + | [21:00] Break Miyama: What is she effectively saying about my chances of ever making it to college? |
| | | | |
| - | Break Miyama: I know. This is through no fault of your own. | + | [21:01] Break Miyama: This sickening attitude of "poor me" ignores all those in much worse academic situations (though pretty much |
| | + | anything lower than her current standing may very well be considered a disaster to her). |
| | | | |
| - | Break Miyama: ....Josh? | + | [21:02] Break Miyama: Why work yourself this much harder and have such a bloody ignorant concern over your acceptance to college when |
| | + | you have hit the academic ceiling of excellence? |
| | | | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: Ok.
| + | [21:03] Break Miyama: She goes to a well known, relatively prestigious and difficult ACADEMY, for the love of God, and she is |
| | + | attaining such grades. |
| | | | |
| - | Break Miyama: Oh, I'll get back to one member who really IS bothering me, though.
| + | [21:03] Createdandmade: I understand now, have you told her that? |
| | | | |
| - | Break Miyama: Josh knows who I'm talking about. | + | [21:04] Break Miyama: Not to this much of a ranting degree. |
| | | | |
| - | BurkeyJ15: Chirok.
| + | [21:04] Break Miyama: IT would be irrational on my own part to be angry over such a situation. |
| | | | |
| - | BurkeyJ15: That's my guess.
| + | [21:04] Break Miyama: But I have made it perfectly clear to her that I think she is being ignorant and selfish. |
| - | | + | |
| - | BurkeyJ15: lol
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Break Miyama: Yep... | + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: LMAO.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: Yeah. He's a bit.........unique
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Break Miyama: The. dude. thinks. I'm. a. girl.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: I don't know. He's one of my best friends. I went to high school with him.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: That's your fault.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Break Miyama: Can't deny that one, haha.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | BurkeyJ15: It is your fault.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | BurkeyJ15: You messed with him, let him believe it.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | BurkeyJ15: lol
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Break Miyama: I know, I know. What he believe now is built on his assumptions, though.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | BurkeyJ15: I don't really have a problem with anyone on the board.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Break Miyama: I never clearly stated who I was one way or the other.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | BurkeyJ15: I'm all for everyone having their fun.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | BurkeyJ15: I'm just not an anime guy.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | BurkeyJ15: I really joined because you asked me to, bro.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: Yeah...I've been thinking about that alot lately.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | BurkeyJ15: You'll notice I really only post on the subtopic stuff.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: And the site doesn't really have anything to do with anime anymore.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | BurkeyJ15: The music section, serious discussion, roleplaying.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: So I've been thinking about changing the forum up...but I'm at a loss for ideas.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | BurkeyJ15: It does, because thats how the community is connected.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: Yeah, but about the actual quality of discussions and information that we provide, its shit.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | BurkeyJ15: But in high school, I was pretty mcuh friends with everyone but the crazy anime obsessed crowd.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: Its like "OMG I LOVE THIS CHARACTER SEX"
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | BurkeyJ15: lol
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | BurkeyJ15: Yeah, and I find that kind of dumb.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | BurkeyJ15: and i don't partake.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Break Miyama: Well, at least you know what we're getting at, haha.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: ...That's why I don't do it.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | BurkeyJ15: It's cool that they do it, I don't mind.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | BurkeyJ15: Its what they want to talk about.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: Yeah, I totally understand the annoyance you can find in it.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | BurkeyJ15: Its just not my scene, so to speak.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | BurkeyJ15: It really doesn't bother me on its own.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Break Miyama: I think they're free to talk about that. I'm not going to stop them.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | BurkeyJ15: I'd stick around just to talk and run my RP.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Break Miyama: But in opposition, it does bother me.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: I get what you guys are saying.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Break Miyama: Okay.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: I'm just lacking the knowledge to do anything about it.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | BurkeyJ15: There isn't really anything to do.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: Except you two leaving, and I'd prefer that not happening.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: I enjoy your company.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: Alot.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: Not saying that you leaving ZA would totally cut our ties
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Break Miyama: And to be perfectly honest, I don't expect you to do anything about it, because there's not much that CAN be done.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | BurkeyJ15: Same, i mean, your my nigga. lol
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: I just like having ya'll around
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: hahah =D
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: That made me smile
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: Thanks.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | BurkeyJ15: heh
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Break Miyama: Yeah, we love you, Koj. In a totally platonic, hetero way.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: lmao.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: Awesome.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: you guys rock.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Break Miyama: Damn right we do.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | BurkeyJ15: It's our job.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: Hahaha.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: Totally.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | BurkeyJ15: No need to thank.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Break Miyama: Anyway, I guess the reason we had to talk to you was merely to express a concern.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: Well...I'm sorry that my members annoyed you.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | BurkeyJ15: it's okay, its not your fault or their faults.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | BurkeyJ15: They're being themselves.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Break Miyama: All that's really left is to hear more about what you think about it, if there's more...
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: Yeah. I understand and I really appreciate you bringing it up.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: I agree that this is not a conventional forum. I think I let too much slide. However, that is mainly due to my lack of funding for an actual server that I can put limits on (text size, posting restraints, text requirements, etc.)
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: I definately think I let too much slide
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | BurkeyJ15: The whole openly gay sexually active crew that randomly showed up is my pet peeve.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: LMFAO.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: Yeah, I should probably make them tone that down.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | BurkeyJ15: Please.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | BurkeyJ15: Its awkward.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: Cause that was a bit uncalled for.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | BurkeyJ15: like hardcore.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | BurkeyJ15: I don't even see that with straight couples.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Break Miyama: Hell, if it were a guy and a girl talking about such things, I'd have problems.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Break Miyama: In general, I don't exactly want to see ANYONE talking about that.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | BurkeyJ15: and to be honest, on my list of people that annoy me, flamboyantly gay homosexuals who feel the need to show off their gayness come close to topping the list.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | BurkeyJ15: Especially if they're emo.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: lmao.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | BurkeyJ15: But yeah, I'm fine with things as long as people aren't like talking about how they love making out with each other.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | BurkeyJ15: As Break said, itd be awkward even if they were boy/girl.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: I just took care of it.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | BurkeyJ15: Appreciated.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: I'll make them go back and edit their posts.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Break Miyama: Good going.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | BurkeyJ15: Other than that, I have no problems.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Break Miyama: Back to the Chirok issue, then...
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | BurkeyJ15: Just not much that interests me outside of my RP and you/break/sneaky.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: Ok....well I just messaged both of the people that did the extreme homoness
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Break Miyama: I'm just counting all of the words and fractions thereof that would end up censored on BB...
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: From their posts?
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Break Miyama: Oh, no, in this chat.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: oh >_>
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Break Miyama: "Homoness" is one.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | BurkeyJ15: lol
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Break Miyama: But that's off topic. >_>
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | BurkeyJ15: BB and its wacky censor.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: meh.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: Well, ok.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: I have a situation
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Break Miyama: Alright.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: That I think might please the both of you
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | BurkeyJ15: Shoot.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: I found a new server that is much neater and a lot more....organizable than invisionfree (in my opinion)
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: and I'm honestly thinking about switching to that
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | BurkeyJ15: If it costs you money, don't bother.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | BurkeyJ15: I don't mind the board layout.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: No, I don't think it does
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: I just have to remember how to get to the site I foudn it on
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Break Miyama: Don't tell me it's Proboards.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: I don't know, honestly.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: I can't remember what it was
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: But its the same kind that is used on another forum I go to
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | BurkeyJ15: I don't think you need to worry about the board.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Break Miyama: Invision's the way to go, as it's very flexible.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | BurkeyJ15: This board is fine.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: I do >_>
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: It bothers me.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | BurkeyJ15: Why?
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Break Miyama: Hell, I use Inivision.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Break Miyama: Albeit a paid version of it.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: It just annoys me to no extent because I despise the background but I can't change it because everthing I want to use doesn't work.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: the color format of this new one is good,easy, and neat.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Break Miyama: There are ways to change it, but it involves sinking your head into lots of scripts.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Break Miyama: And so far, this is starting to sound like Proboards.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: I really don't know.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Break Miyama: Ease of use and visual customization, nothing for functional flexibility.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: This was like...2 months ago when I found it
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | BurkeyJ15: You paid for your message board? >_>
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Break Miyama: Yes.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Break Miyama: Though it wasn't my money.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Break Miyama: Remember, AC's server is in Ohio, and belongs to Grim, who pays for it.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: My whole thing with ZA right now is that its got crappy posts all over the place and I honestly don't feel like going through and deleting all the stuff
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | BurkeyJ15: Ah.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | BurkeyJ15: haha.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Break Miyama: So you want to start clean?
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: I think just starting over would be better for me because then I can set rules, regulations, etc that people will have to follow
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: Yeah. pretty much.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Break Miyama: Wipe the board.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | BurkeyJ15: Damn >_>
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: It'd take some time.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | BurkeyJ15: *Sylvalise >_>*
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: I'll save it
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Break Miyama: Then copy-paste the entire topic.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Break Miyama: And no, I don't mean wiping the board topic by topic.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: I know that
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: But I can do it that way.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Break Miyama: I literally mean deleting every subforum and making them anew.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: Would you be willing to give me suggestions for titles, sub forums, rules, etc.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Break Miyama: And resetting everyone's post count.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: I'm so tired of having to do this all by myself.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Break Miyama: Sure. Hell, I'll help you admin.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: Sakura doesn't do shit, honestly.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: and it makes me SO mad because we went into this as a group of 3 people (Sakura, Chirok, and me)
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Break Miyama: Then tell her that.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: I have
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | BurkeyJ15: I don't realy tihnk of Sakura as a mod.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: She starts doing stuff for like...2 days and then she stops
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Break Miyama: She really flaunts her title.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | BurkeyJ15: I didn't even know Chirok was >_>
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: I think of Break, You, and Kitty as mods
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | BurkeyJ15: I'll help too, somehow.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Break Miyama: At any rate, announce your itention for the boards.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Break Miyama: Do not take a vote.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: Just do it.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: I gotcha.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | BurkeyJ15: Yup.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | BurkeyJ15: Your the boss.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | BurkeyJ15: Take control.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | BurkeyJ15: Do things the way you want to do them.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: Yeah......thanks for that push.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: I needed it.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Break Miyama: And make Josh a Global Mod, and give an ultimatum to the lazier mods.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | BurkeyJ15: Oh, and make the post intervals for blue/red/green boxes less.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Break Miyama: Do your job, or be stripped of your fancy rank.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: ...can you explain what an ultimatum is?
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | BurkeyJ15: And add red/green/other colors.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: I feel like such a dick.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | BurkeyJ15: That's just what I like lol.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | BurkeyJ15: An ultimatum is like this: Do your job or your not a mod anymore.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: Ok.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Break Miyama: Would you prefer the current situation?
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | BurkeyJ15: They have to do it, or face the consequences.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: I understand.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: No.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | BurkeyJ15: No middle ground.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: Not at all
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Break Miyama: But yeah, I suggest a total restructuring of power at ZA.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: yeah.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: Its going to happen
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: Right now
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: but
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: Just...
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: Give me like 3 seconds
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: There is so much flowing into my head right nwo of things I need to do.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: and I have to piss
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Break Miyama: If you need mods, I trust Josh and KT to fill those positions.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Break Miyama: ....
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: So...I'm a bit disheveled.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Break Miyama: .....the first part was understandable...
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Break Miyama: ....but DAMN, dude, do you really need to tell us about whether or not you have to urinate?
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | BurkeyJ15: KT is capable.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | BurkeyJ15: Even if he seems to like attacking me at every turn. XD
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: YES. Yes i do.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: It was complicating my thinking process.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: Ok.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Break Miyama: Haha.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: This is what I need from you two
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | BurkeyJ15: I dunno, I found it enlightining.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: If its not too much.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: I need rules.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: Like..
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Break Miyama: I don't mind. I just found it a tad off.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: Discuss every possible run in we could have and find a way to counter it.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: Because peopel don't even read the rules I have there
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Break Miyama: Well, I don't think we can trust the community with an AC structure.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: and they are posted on EVERY forum.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: AC?
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Break Miyama: Where there is one grand rule, and a few guidelines.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | BurkeyJ15: Something more strict?
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Break Miyama: Azure chaotic, my forum.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: Pretty much
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Break Miyama: It's structured to be freeform.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | BurkeyJ15: AC is a very mature forum, comparitively speaking.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: oh.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: Yeah.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | BurkeyJ15: So it flows well despite less rules.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Break Miyama: AC only has one rule.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Break Miyama: And it's a very big one which is enforced heavily.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Break Miyama: Here, let me link you to AC's guidelines...
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Break Miyama: Almost done.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Break Miyama: http://www.editthis.info/azuwiki/AC_Rules
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: angelxfeathers8 (9:56:58 PM): I really hope I can be a mod again....your forum was the only one that I was a mod on, and I really enjoy doing the job
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: ...
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: Wow
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: nevermind
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: that's being a bitch
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: so I'm not going to say anything.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Break Miyama: Understandable. This is a very large decision.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Break Miyama: You can still turn back if you want.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Break Miyama: We're not going to force you into this.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: Nah.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: It needs to be done
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: We're not going to get anywhere with immature people.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Break Miyama: I agree.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Break Miyama: I just hope you're not going to regret this.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: spell inconveinence.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: is that right?
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Break Miyama: Inconvenience.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | BurkeyJ15: You know, Koji.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | BurkeyJ15: I don't want yout o do this just because you think itll make us think of you differently, or something like that.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | BurkeyJ15: We'll respect you exactly the same if you do it or you don't.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | BurkeyJ15: If you make this decision, make sure its purely because you felt you wanted your board to run differently.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Break Miyama: Hell, if you have the cojones to disagree with me and can say why, I'd probably respect you even more.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | BurkeyJ15: Not because some people who showed up int he past couple of months didn't agree with it.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Break Miyama: Right.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Break Miyama: Weigh our opinions to that of the board.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | BurkeyJ15: We're fairly insignificant in comparison to everyone else combined.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Break Miyama: Well....insigificant when it should come to voting power, at least. =P
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: No. You guys really brought it to my attention
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: Because I've noticed how things have been declining and I'm just tired of all these bullshit posts people keep putting
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: A forum is for discussion, not for people going "OH MY GOD CHARACTERS ARE AMAZING MUSIC LA LA LA CANDY I'M HYPER."
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: -_-
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: So, if anything, this is a great push for me and I appreciate it.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | BurkeyJ15: Alright.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | BurkeyJ15: I just wanted to make sure this was YOUR decision and not just an extension of our opinions.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Break Miyama: ....if you say so. I can't help but feel a bit bad for pushing you to do something so drastic, though.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Break Miyama: Are you going to tell the members WHY it is restarting, though?
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: No...Break, I really really want to thank you.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: I've wanted to do this for the longest time but no one has been willing to help me or give me the push I needed to start it.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Break Miyama: .....alright.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: You guys are willing to do that so I'm 100% ready.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Break Miyama: You've got balls, Koji, I'll tell you that right now.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: Since you know what you're talking about, can you instruct me on what I should be doing for the wipe?
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: and I'm really sorry about Sylvalise Josh.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: Have you saved it, or would you like me to save it to a word document?
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Break Miyama: Wait until Josh copies Sylvalise.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Break Miyama: Because there's no way in hell I'm letting it get lost in a forum wipe.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | BurkeyJ15: Please save it as a wordpad document.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | BurkeyJ15: I don't have Word. =/
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | BurkeyJ15: Notepad, if need be.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Break Miyama: You won't get formatting if you save it to Notepad, but the raw text will be there.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Break Miyama: The only way I can think of is to delete every subforum, then mass prune the accounts except your own.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: That's what I'm going to do
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: who's saving sylvalise?
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Break Miyama: I think Josh should.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Break Miyama: It's his baby, after all.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Break Miyama: Hell, save his RPing guidelines.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Break Miyama: Those were good, as well.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: ok
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: I saved them
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Break Miyama: And Burkey, will you still need your character sheets?
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: and I'm in the process of transfering
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: and its just a block of text.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | BurkeyJ15: I'd like them if possible.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Break Miyama: Don't you have them?
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | BurkeyJ15: Via PMs.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | BurkeyJ15: Will those be wiped?
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Break Miyama: Yes, save those.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Break Miyama: They will be wiped.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: everything is getting wiped
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | BurkeyJ15: Wow.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | BurkeyJ15: Damn, I gotta put in work. =/
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | BurkeyJ15: lol
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Break Miyama: You aren't gonna get away with yoshing it tonight.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Break Miyama: Sadly.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: lmao
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: Ok
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: you got those, right Josh?
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: Because I'm about to wipe everything off the board.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: I don't need to save anything else.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: I'll keep the PMs up though.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Break Miyama: Make the account wiping happen last.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | BurkeyJ15: i don't have them yet no
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Break Miyama: You should be able to go through with deleting the subforums.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | BurkeyJ15: i haven't saved anything
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | BurkeyJ15: nononono
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | BurkeyJ15: i haven't saved sylvalise
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Break Miyama: Ah.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: I am doing that
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: I set the time limit to 10 minutes
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: in 10 minutes, "Rebirth" takes effect.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Break Miyama: I don't think I have anything I wish to save.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Break Miyama: Actually, one thing.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Break Miyama: My signature.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Break Miyama: Because i'll be damned if my badass signatire is ruined.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | BurkeyJ15: Shit, there's no way in hell I'm reposting all of this. I'd have to fix all the code. XD
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Break Miyama: As long as the raw text is there, the gruntwork is done.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | : Your previous message has not been sent. Reason: Maximum length (232) exceeded. You can recall the last message typed with Ctrl-Up or Up, depending on settings.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: Yeah.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: 7 minutes remain, just to inform you all
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Break Miyama: I'm good.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | BurkeyJ15: Okay, my stuff is taken care of.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | BurkeyJ15: I'll just send the file to anyone who wants to reference it.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | BurkeyJ15: lol
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Break Miyama: I don't need it.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | BurkeyJ15: Maybe repost the last event.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | BurkeyJ15: Well I know you don't. >_>
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | BurkeyJ15: You're not even in it. lol
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Break Miyama: Yep...
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | BurkeyJ15: Which reminds me.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | BurkeyJ15: Go work on the game.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | BurkeyJ15: XD
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Break Miyama: Not right now. We've got to be ready to pick up the pieces.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: 3 minutes.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: Wow.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Break Miyama: Hm?
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: So I'm feeling really bad and nervous right now
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | BurkeyJ15: We set a record for most users ever.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: Mainly because of Sakura (the bad part)
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Break Miyama: You still have a chance to turn back.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | BurkeyJ15: Its not too late.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Break Miyama: You're not forced to do anything.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: Nah.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: I'm doing it.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: Sakura is just making it hard for me.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: She almost made me tear up earlier
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Break Miyama: God, we sound like we're trying to stop him from commiting suicide. >_>
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: I wanna hit her for it.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | BurkeyJ15: What the heck did she say?
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | BurkeyJ15: There are members online I've never even seen before...
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | BurkeyJ15: lol
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Break Miyama: Yes, I'm curious, Koj - what DId she say?
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: Sorry, I sent it to josh in an IM
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: let me send you
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | BurkeyJ15: She's bugging for her mod status.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | BurkeyJ15: Am I going to need to do anything anytime soon?
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | BurkeyJ15: I'm starving and I want to grab something to eat.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Break Miyama: Go get your food.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: Go ahead and leave for a little
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Break Miyama: I'm handling the mob.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | SoulxEdgexKoji: try to be back within an hour please.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | BurkeyJ15: I probably won't be, that's the problem.

[20:41] Break Miyama: Not much. I'm merely....bored.
[20:42] Createdandmade: so you talk to me when you're bored? therefore I entertain you? YAY!!!!
[20:42] Break Miyama: Perhaps this may be interpreted as "I haven't much better things to do".
[20:43] Createdandmade: but talking to me is still better than killing yourself. so YAY!!!
[20:43] Break Miyama: Killing myself? I haven't a clue as to why I would do such a thing.
[20:46] Break Miyama: THe latter of which bothers me greatly, as I know someone who has such a complex to a great degree.
[20:46] Break Miyama: Pardon if I am shoveling my thoughts upon you, but will you hear me out?
[20:47] Break Miyama: To begin with, I'm sure you've heard of the college of UCLA, correct?
[20:48] Break Miyama: A friend - and I use the term in a fairly loose sense - thinks that she will not get in.
[20:49] Break Miyama: She has a GPA above 4.0, and scored well above 2200 on her practice SAT exam, which bodes well, seeing as her
score will likely improve when she does take the actual exam.
[20:50] Break Miyama: Of course, this is not my problem, but her attitude concerning the entire ordeal is simply pathetic and
selfish.
[20:51] Break Miyama: She insists that she will not get into college with no less than a 2400 SAT score, and a
four-point-god-knows-what GPA.
[20:52] Break Miyama: Because she is Japanese, she also says that any affirmative action programs in place will decrease her chances
of getting in, due to the already high amount of Asian students present.
[20:53] Break Miyama: The attitude is obviously pathetic and unrealistic, but some explanation is required as to why I consider it
selfish.
[20:53] Break Miyama: That is, of course, disregarding the possibility that you may know why to begin with.
[20:55] Break Miyama: That depends. Do you know why such an attitude is selfish?
[20:57] Createdandmade: I think it is selfish because then they are trying to get attention from others and are doing that by getting
appaise from others, because they are telling her that she is wrong
[20:57] Break Miyama: I'd agree were it not for the fact that she actually believes it.
[20:59] Break Miyama: Because this attitude was conceived in utter ignorance of all else who apply for college.
[21:00] Break Miyama: I, myself, am Asian. My SAT scores and GPA are well below hers.
[21:00] Break Miyama: What is she effectively saying about my chances of ever making it to college?
[21:01] Break Miyama: This sickening attitude of "poor me" ignores all those in much worse academic situations (though pretty much
anything lower than her current standing may very well be considered a disaster to her).
[21:02] Break Miyama: Why work yourself this much harder and have such a bloody ignorant concern over your acceptance to college when
you have hit the academic ceiling of excellence?
[21:03] Break Miyama: She goes to a well known, relatively prestigious and difficult ACADEMY, for the love of God, and she is
attaining such grades.
[21:04] Break Miyama: IT would be irrational on my own part to be angry over such a situation.
[21:04] Break Miyama: But I have made it perfectly clear to her that I think she is being ignorant and selfish.
