What you should do

Posted: Sat Jul 01, 2006 9:28 pm Post subject: What you should do

Unban Damien because he makes this place considerably less dead

Give me admins (I'm ideal. I'm the most active member)
Dont give Ward admins (he's a saboteur)

Posted: Sat Jul 01, 2006 10:00 pm Post subject:

I'm more active than you.

I think.

Posted: Sat Jul 01, 2006 10:06 pm Post subject:

You'd think wrong.

To be fair I would place you at the #2 spot

Posted: Sat Jul 01, 2006 10:20 pm Post subject:

Is there a point to being admin anyway? All you'd probably do is get rid of bots, or maybe move a topic or two.

Unless you want to be an Admin to help on the coding side and fix any bugs 'n' shit.

uh coding?

*runs away in fear*

Posted: Sat Jul 01, 2006 10:29 pm Post subject:

Argh, this is a phpBB forum. I'm no good there. I can barely hold an XMB forum together.

Posted: Sat Jul 01, 2006 10:32 pm Post subject:

we need Damien back

or this will shortly turn into the yuka and Asaroth forum

Posted: Sat Jul 01, 2006 10:35 pm Post subject:

Holy shit.

I just read Asaroth and thought you'd spelt it wrong.
I've been reading it as 'Astaroth' this whole time!

Posted: Sat Jul 01, 2006 10:37 pm Post subject:

Yeah. I was Asaroth years before SoulCalibur came out and the internet became flooded with Astaroths...

Posted: Sat Jul 01, 2006 10:39 pm Post subject:

It's my brain. If it reads something wrong the first time, I won't know for about 3 months. I just automatically see the first 2 letters and the brain invents the rest, like a mind cache...

I did this on another forum. I did a search for a user named Cavalcades post, and found I'd typed Calvaclade. How silly of me.

Posted: Sat Jul 01, 2006 10:46 pm Post subject:

I think it's everyone's brain

I was shown something on the internet that was this big paragraph without a single word spelled correctly, but sort of scrambled

it was an example of how the mind "speed reads"

I was able to read through the whole paragraph with ease without hesitating

Posted: Sat Jul 01, 2006 10:49 pm Post subject:

Oh, I think I know that.

Isn't it where the first and last letter of every word is correct, but everything else is mixed up?

Posted: Sat Jul 01, 2006 10:53 pm Post subject:

probably, it's been a while and I dont know how to get back to it

it was one of those situations where someone tells you to"hey! come look at this thing!" they found on the net.

Posted: Sat Jul 01, 2006 10:56 pm Post subject:

*sigh*

I've had such a wasted day.
All I've done was play Sonic Advance 3, got pissed off at it, threw my DS somewhere in my room, watched Dr Who, then started searching this forum for a LOL.gif that Ward posted ages ago that was awesome.

I didn't find it.

Posted: Sat Jul 01, 2006 10:57 pm Post subject:

watch a tv series you borrowed from the library?

Posted: Sat Jul 01, 2006 10:59 pm Post subject:

I haven't been to the Library for years.

Posted: Sat Jul 01, 2006 11:00 pm Post subject:

are you a lifelong insomniac?

Posted: Sat Jul 01, 2006 11:01 pm Post subject:

Nope. Insomnia was a march/may thing. Since I've been at home I've been in a nice pattern of sleeping from 4am to 11am.

Posted: Sat Jul 01, 2006 11:03 pm Post subject:

oh thought you might have low energy due to insomnia

go buy new super mario bros instead of sonic

or phoenix wright

Posted: Sat Jul 01, 2006 11:06 pm Post subject:

I can't stand mario games, it has to be said. Sonic Advance is a hateful, hateful game. Sonic Rush is 100% finished.

I may go find my old Xenogears disc and have a bash on ePSXe.

Or I could wait until my DVD orders come through.

Posted: Sat Jul 01, 2006 11:14 pm Post subject:

I gave up on Sonic after Sonic Heroes(rented thank God)
I just want his franchise to die after that

Posted: Sat Jul 01, 2006 11:20 pm Post subject:

Yeah. It's no genesis series. I have almost every sonic game on Genesis/Game Gear/Master System on my PSp for emulation. T'is awesomeness.

Posted: Sun Jul 02, 2006 12:13 am Post subject:

This is really interesting but no, won't admin people that I don't know in real life or they'd have to be people I've known online for a reeeeeeeeeally long time. Not that I don't trust you guys, but I'm sure you all remember what people like Brad did to SG in the past....

So yeah, Yuka, Asaroth, come to London and I might consider it.

As for Damien making this place more lively I see your point, but personally I don't think too much spam/unjustified flaming would really help the forum so he's not gonna be unbanned anytime soon, not until he starts writing the 4263556 reviews he was supposed to write for the site anyway...

Posted: Sun Jul 02, 2006 12:19 am Post subject:

How can you live with a guy you've made your enemy?

How can I take your side in this affair without knowing all the details?

and definitely how can I be expected to come to London and stay in a house full of conflict?
(btw this whole event sounds like it screws SGW 2006)

Posted: Sun Jul 02, 2006 12:21 am Post subject:

I missed the Brad incident, care to fill me in?

Since I've been at Sg there's been more staff changes than I can cope with.

Posted: Sun Jul 02, 2006 12:25 am Post subject:

Brad was a douche

He stole neil's password from a site he was in charge of or had some status on(neil used the same password for SG)

He royally fucked SG. it became a graveyard of broken code all over the threads.

then they fixed it somehow

then I think maybe he did it again.

then they fixed it again

banned his ass. The end.

I think that's basically it...if someone here remembers better than that feel free.

oh and "citan" was complicit in this somehow and was trying to get Brad off and was sending out fake chat logs of him and Brad talking to people on icq.

Posted: Sun Jul 02, 2006 12:28 am Post subject:

What's Neil's online name?

I only know a handful of people's offline names. Mainly Rachel, Alice, Shaun, Chris and Luke.

Posted: Sun Jul 02, 2006 12:30 am Post subject:

I think "neil" was his online name.

I heard someone saying that wasnt his real name.

Kinda funny that didnt come up in all the time I talked to neil back then.
I used to talk to neil quite often on icq.

fucking complete stranger to me now though

Posted: Sun Jul 02, 2006 12:34 am Post subject:

I don't know an online or an offline Neil...maybe this was before my time or something (2002 Newb, when Rayne and Grey Fox ruled, TheStrife was vengeful forum god, and there was...um...Leftover Of Reality, Peter, Biz, Jubilation...where'd they all go?)

Posted: Sun Jul 02, 2006 12:36 am Post subject:

Jub went to WF and slept with Redlimit I hear.

he may have been using "softrock" possibly, but dont hold me to that. That's just based on some faint recall that someone implied that was a name neil took.

anyway back when I was here in the old days

neil was or at least seemed to be the second in command.
(possibly shaun's best friend)

you can see the neil I'm talking about in several of the SGTVs

Posted: Sun Jul 02, 2006 12:39 am Post subject:

Thanks to the magic of Alexa's Internet Time Machine The SG Staff Team that I remember from when I first joined

I think only Kat (Silly Kitty) remains Onoes

Posted: Sun Jul 02, 2006 12:51 am Post subject:

my computer died after clicking on your time machine...

does it seem odd to you that Calbrena is dodging all questions relating to the feud even though as the supposed winner of said conflict she should feel free?

Posted: Sun Jul 02, 2006 12:54 am Post subject:

Strange. It worked fine for me, bar some 503 error box that popped up.

If it doesn't work for you I'll drop names.

That's admin overkill.

Posted: Sun Jul 02, 2006 12:58 am Post subject:

How many Admins and Mods do we have here d'you think?

Also - that old SG layout is fucking awesome.

Posted: Sun Jul 02, 2006 1:02 am Post subject:

damn it did it to me again.

I dont know I prefer this deep dark blue to gray.

Posted: Sun Jul 02, 2006 1:04 am Post subject:

Holy shit.

Just checked the User Ranks. ManOfText is banned too, and Damien is only showing up as a regular user, not a banned Admin.

Since when did manoftext get into this?
