  1. Don't get mardy because I didn't tell you of my return.

  2. So who's winning? Is it you? It doesn't look like it but this could all be part of your strategy...

  3. [1 of 3] As a mod, that fact that most of your works goes unknown is, for the most part, a good thing. And I know your intention was well meant. My comment about you failing as a mod was me substituting the comments providing by another user as well as using their line about it being nothing personal. It wasn't meant as a slight at you. It was meant as jab at them. I thought that would have been obvious if all the posts had been read.

     

    And I kept it on there just so people could read it as a matter of public interest.

     

    I have no issue with Thread Ripping and I don't see why it would require another members permission for it. I know why this this happened, how it came about, but this has nothing to do with. It's to do with the content of the posts themselves - something I made very clear in my own posts.

  4. You have a new visitor's message!

    Long time no see!

  5. [2 of 3] Mokong didn't vote for himself. He didn't say "look how successful I've been - aren't I great" Someone else nominated him because they believed the things he had done amount to a success. If you didn't agree with that, fair enough. No one was being made to vote for him. But there is a world of difference between saying, well I thing person x is more worthy of this award and I think Mokong is "failing at life". I see that as a personal attack. And throwing around a bunch of disclaimers about how "it's nothing personal" and how he doesn't know anything of his circumstances makes it even worse. Of course, once Mokog replies, suddenly the user is now all things expert on the guy and he falls in line with the assumptions he made about the fella. Assumptions he's formed out of think air because he's already admitted to knowing precisely nothing about him.

  6. [3 of 3] You say you are pissed off at people flying off the handle at things that don't concern them. Difficult to think that's not aimed at me directly given I've been the most forceful in responses. But that's ok. I understand where you are coming from. You don't see this as my business because it was effectively between two other members or perhaps rather one member.

     

    My stance is, like I said in my first post in the thread, that too many people are all too eager to shoot down other people on the forum for having different views. And that's what I also said I may be guilty of the same in my response.

     

    Personally, I vote for Mokong because I do think he's achieved an awful lot, but notice how I never bring up my views on success into my replies. And why is that? Because people would mistake my agenda. They would think I'm "siding" with Mokong because I think he is successful. Whereas what I'm really doing is defending a person who is clearly being picked on by someone else.

  7. Cool!

     

    I forgot I didn't even have my Wii when I said yes. I lent it to my brother as he's off work for 4 weeks following a trip to the hospital - I went and got back today.

     

    I'll set my alarm now whilst I remember. Not played in ages though so be warned - if I'm playinjg crap, I'm not being sporting, I'm being crap :p

  8. Well I was never looking to argue with you but I couldn't help but notice that you were completely missing my point - which, as you now see is different to the others that were being raised. And I was a touch saddened by that if being honest... especially after you took the time to post 4 messages on my wall.

     

    So thrip, thrip, thrip away - it makes no difference whatsoever to me.

     

    Issues on freedom of speech and personal insults though, are a matter for everyone. That's what I was trying to make a point about... I'm just glad we got there in the end.

     

    You mentioned about people not speaking out for being "fearful of their freedom"... well that's my biggest concern.

  9. We'll see, we'll see... :)

  10. Me and Dud are playing a bit of Smash Bros. if you're interested right now.

  11. You have a new visitor's message!

    Excellent graffittiability you possess - have you been practicing?

  12. I'm definitely going to the meet now having booked some train tickets today. Have you made up your mind yet?

  13. The Rayman games, both the original, Jungle Run, and the sequel Fiesta Run, are currently on sale on the Google Play store at 49p and 69p respectively if you're interested in picking them up.

     

    I have both and can strongly recommend them if you're curious. Plus, at that price, you can't really go wrong.

  14. Hey mate :)

     

    It's going as to be expected... just trying to organise my thoughts and straighen my mind out. Now I'm back at uni, I don't have much time for gaming.

     

    I'm trying to fit in play of Deus Ex (done about 3 misions in two weeks) and my mate has given me a code to get Batman for free when it's released next month on PC. I'll have to make time for Zelda though but there are some 3DS games looming too (Mario, Sonic, Tales of...) I'm interested in so I see a bit of a backlog forming. And then there is Skyrim.

     

    But as I said, not much time - too busy trying to make games to play them :p

     

    How's things with you?

  15. You have a new visitor's message!

    I'm sorry it's taken so long to give you a new visitor's message.

  16. You busy mate? Could I tempt you for an hour or so of hunting? If not I'll Golden Sun it for a bit but I thought I'd ask you first :)

  17. There's a Name that Game round in play right now if you haven't seen.

  18. No probs mate - Golden Sun it is!

     

    I'm not sure if I've seen PS2. My brother used to watch all those kinds of films and at various stages I've sat down and watched them with him. Even if I've not watched it in one sitting, I've probably seen it all :p

     

    I think my favourite will always be City Hunter!

  19. I thought people who get most of them straight away - there is only one I thought would prove tricky. But it seems they aren't quite as easy as I thought.

  20. I like the cheesiness of it all. Plus, the guy throwing the cards is well cool - makes Gambit look like a chump :)

  21. I guess you will be matey. It's going to be strange seeing all those people. I wonder how many I'll have annoyed before the day is out...

  22. iSketch is a go go!

  23. I saw this and instantly thought of you.

  24. Maggers!!!

     

    I'm making a special effort to come here today and say happy birthday... so, Happy Birthday!!!!

     

    See, that friend request meant something to me even if not to you - I know you prefer Timbo over me but that's cool since he was there first ;) And no, I've still have zero interest in Minecraft before you ask :p

  25. Happy birthday dude!!
