Random thoughts thread

[ahausheer]

Hey mods, or those that know, do the mods read every post? Is there some sort of screening that goes on behind the scenes?

[Zaku]

Oh their stuff that goes on behind the scenes, they wouldn't be called Ninja mods if they didn't. But even they can't see everything, it's 3 mods versus 4000+ members and they have a family and they work hard. They read as much as they can it's why they rely on members and older veterans to help with the reporting and talking to other members about it.

But ill try my best to keep it contained for you guys.

When the North American price is revealed. I'm going to have my say and then walk off into the sunset.

After a 5 month hiatus from the internet (except for emails to immediate family), I don't even want to know what you're going to be dealing with WoW after pricing is announced and again once again at delivery. I may return if I buy one of said models, but that most likely will be longer then the waiting time for this car to hit the market.

My interest in the FRS/86/BRZ was at pre-specifications time. Particularly the FA20 theoretical specifications and design (this was before we even knew the engine code). I received a level of friendly criticism for my thoughts, however I stuck to my beliefs. I was surprised at the level of accuracy my "educated guesses" were, along with other members after returning to this forum.

I have noticed a particular side appearing on this forum that was not here when I signed off in late Aug. Many members posting at that time have since stopped and long term frequenters have reduced daily posts (an exception being SUB, he's done the opposite). Coupled with what I witnessed recently, I don't wish to contribute to this forum like I used too.

P.S. @Snoopy: I don't think you hate me. I specified "personal problem", because the way your posts were worded/directed to me had a derogatory effect despite intending to be jokes. I felt you were trying to troll me so I ended it. I have an extremely short fuse for that behaviour towards me. In fact I misinterpreted one of Zakus' replies because of it on another thread.
I should have made this a PM, but after the fiasco of Kidwonders' thread I have no problem making it public.

Exage, hope you still stick around. I appreciated your thoughts and comments. Don't let the noobs get you down. The older members still appreciate your posts.

Yes. However even in technical I'm having a bit of trouble finding something I can contribute effectively to as before, perhaps something will come up in time.

I think discussions are good even if we disagree. Important to still respect other person even if you disagree. Sorry if I didn't do as good of a job as I hoped.

lol, I saw it, and chuckled.



God, I love AC. Such a captivating video game. Demonstrative of what an interactive story (i.e. the premise of video games) should be.
