Hello, My name is Zack and I require help with surviving in these forums.
Hello most new of the new! I as Sienna Maiu, and if reading your description was any indication, we're not going to get along at all! :)
So, we'll forego the pleasentries, I'll toss a pointystick at you to protect yourself with *tosses one she pulls from a plothole at the newcomer* and then say goodbye.
Enjoy your stay, :)
Sienna Maiu - Moonshine Tallgrass
Booooo.
BOOOOOOOO!
TLDR
Well, I officially failed at my first impretion. I forsee my life being extremly difficult.
A sword collector huh? Neat! Any chance of seeing pics of them?
Anyways, greetings Mr. Noob guy.
I, as well as others, are about to advise you to avoid many things like a certain cardboard box, RJ borne nuclear muffins and somebody named Bill. Regardless of what they say, or how they appear,
everybody here is completely insane. Thus, upon entering, you must be as well.
Enjoy your stay.

Don't worry about the others. They're just being random.

Chyeah, no kidding.
On a more (but not completely) serious note, there was nothing wrong with your intro; we're just assholes. :3 Especially that Bill guy.

Ack!, So I wrote and deleted all that for nothing? I knew I should've copied it...
Oh, now I'm sorry I missed it.
Me too, it was the best thing ever. :<

*Sigh*
Name: Zack
Age: 16
Likes:Swords, Open-minded people, Dance dance revolution, Nature (Animals, oceans, forests etc...), A little chaos now and then.
Doesn't like: Optimism (overly happy things drive me insane), Close-minded people (Horrible conversation makers), People who judge on appearances, Betrayal, People who try to Lecture me without reason or decent reasons.
more on like/dislike but that's all I'm posting.
Hobbies: Collecting swords (I practice swordsmanship every now and then but it's pretty useless other than exercise.)
I'm a very trust worthy person. I can tolerate "almost" everything. I'm generally carefree I try not to stress on things.
Yea, I copied it...It's shorter but it's generally all there.
Instead of posting that here, you might try taking a trip over to the Photo Album thread in the Outer Fortress. :3
Hi zack.
I am aiyno and this place will be your undoing, if it was your place of undoing that is. Hope you enjoy your stay, even with all the scary people here I think you have a relative good chance of survival, hope you watched a lot of survival documentaries, they're helpful. :)
Ah, thanks.
So... let's say someone is both optimistic and open-minded. Does that person hit both your like and dislike lists? Or how does that work?

Here's your first bit of help: Don't believe anyone. And stand up for yourself.
Except for the admins. They should be listened to - other than that, you're golden.
He did listen to me. >:3
I'm not too worried, if being insane is the major part of survival I think i'm good. After all I read the 800 page comic that is dmfa in less than a day. I like finishing things when I start them, if I leave them hangin there's a good chance I'll forget.

Usually if a person is open-minded there okay. I really don't mind happy so long as they can make decent conversation. I've met optimistic close-minded people and they are soooo bad. Mention one thing out of the "norm" and they become entirly different people. It's kinda funny, but annoying at the same time.
It is better not to double post, in the reply window you can quote post by scrolling down and clicking quote of the post you wish to quote in the topic summary. You can also edit your post a bizzilion times >:3
~~Step by step we get a little closer~~
Aye, thanks for the tip. I thought someone posted after my last. I'll be sure to pay more attention.
The problem with being open-minded is that people keep coming along and trying to put things in it.

Point, That's why I tend to filter out the things that don't suite my lifestyle. My mind is open but not unattended.

Same here.
So then, anyone here play dance dance revolution? No? I'm the second best at the game out of my friends the only one better than me is one of my female friends...a speedy vixen she is...I'll beat her one of these days.
Greetings, Numerical Zack! Welcome to our little corner of insanity, which we shall be delighted to share with you.....even if you'd prefer we didn't.
And seeing as I've been awake for 29 hours straight, this is a misquote: "Being open-minded is wonderful, so long as your brains don't fall out."
Right. Greeted.
Eh? 29 hours is a little harsh ain't it? Tell me you at least have some alchohol.
Your numbers are wrong. :<
Bah, 29 hours is nothing! On some of my intense lab weeks, I've been awake for 36-40!
The 40-hour one was cool. I was hallucinating a bit by the end of it. But I had chest pains and caught a virus the next day and decided that wasn't a good idea to do again. :<
Oh, and my evil nemesis Charline de Lyon will devour your soul if you venture into the DMFA portion of the forum. >:3

Nope, I puposly put them as "96" Symbol of break up. I'm not a big fan of love/relationship. Besides everyone who's tried to get close to me has failed miserably by making themselves unworthy of my trust.

Alot of people say that but I'm against the whole slitting of the wrists and what not. I'm just dark, people who actually get to know me say I'm "nice".
And people also keep saying that I'm cute...It's a curse, A curse I tell you!.
A curse is that someone confusing you with Shaft, no not the dective the evil wizard who works with Drac.

...Okay, I have no idea what your talking about but that does sound bad from my uneducated standing point.
He's referring to CVRPG, which is one of the several comics that have discussion areas on the forum.

Ahg! It has begun!
My friends are smothering me with questions, they do this to me at least once per year. They can't seem to be able to fix their own problems so they keep coming to me for advice.
Why I do not know but they won't leave me alone...It's like I'm the only one they can trust, We have a counsellor in our town but no they have to come to me.
I seriously don't know how much longer I can keep answering them without snapping...
What kind of questions, if you don't mind me asking?
<.< >.> is it bout.....personal gooy gooy love junk?

<.< >.> is it bout.....personal gooy gooy love junk?
Some of it yes, most is about them themselves though.
So far I havn't been asked anything big just little things, Hopefully I won't get asked anything major this time, I don't like those situations with life choices an whatnot...
Ah, I know the feeling. You must know that it's not your obligation to answer them. And they must know it too. They must know that you choose to help them because you care about them, not because you have to. And that no matter what you do, you can't sort out their lives for them.
And, just as importantly, that you're a person just like they are and have your own life and your own problems, so if they're your friends, they ought to respect you when you need a break.

They don't do it to me very often, it's usually once during an extended period of time, just thought it was something to discuss here to further this thread.
As for my own problems...well living in one place for 15 years any problems I had have been long ago dealt with.
The question answering isn't all that bad, it's just something random that they do to me. I apparently know more than I should at my age. I've had people 18+ looking for my advice, I'm trusted by most people because they know whatever they tell me won't be repeated. In that sense It's something I'm good at, really I should be thanking them for giving me the oppurtunity to further my ability...
Ah. No problem, then, as long as you're ok with it. :)
It's good to know you're happy with your life right now, but don't be surprised next time you have a problem. We all have things to learn and problems to deal with for as long as we live.
I guess it's ironic for me to be the one to say so after I called myself optimistic, but I'm optimistic in the sense that I believe most problems we come across in life can be dealt with, and I try to find solutions rather than sit and complain about how unfair life is or things like that.

Heh, everyone has positive and negative moments now and then. Personally I don't take the pessimistic/optimistic thing seriously, I don't think it's possible to be completely positive or completely negative, thus the words are flawed and useless in my vocabulary.
You sound like a nice person.
I don't see or hear many nice people these days. Especially with me sticking out where-ever I go, I'm generally the most known person in my town it's not fun but through it I've devolped a unique personality in my mind, being known by a town there's many people who like and dislike you. I've pretty much grown not to care about either group, if I get a complement I say thanks, If someone has a problem with me I find them and discuss it.
I've always got people saying I have problems or I have issues, but that's only because they all live in the same box, they can't seem to develop their own opinions about things. If someone says somethings bad everyone thinks it's bad. If they say it's good then most will accept it.

Ah. I know a lot of people ho are that way. It seems they just can't think for themselves. Either they never learnt or they're afraid to do it, I don't know. Luckily, not everyone is like that.
People have learned not to ask me to help them with their problems...
My answer is always "Find the tallest structure around and jump off the top of it." >:3
Either that, or they actually followed my advice and I've run out of people. Just like lemmings they are! :mwaha
Sounds like a win-win situation, Alondro. ;-]

Luckily yes, unfortunatly they are scarce in my town.
Exellent, I have my haloween costume for this year. Though I don't really trick or treat, I just get one of them to collect for me so I don't have to carry any bags. I always have one of my wooden swords with me walking around on haloween mainly because I like swords, they usually go with my costume, and anyone who tries to mess with my group is in biiig trouble.
There's apparently a couger been wandering around my town at night...hopefully we won't come across it, if it picks a fight then the only choices we'd really have is find a house or overpower it, wich still leaves us with a very high we're all gonna die chance. Hopefully it won't come out with all the people around but on the chance it does lets hope it's not lookin for foodz.
Oh and I did manage to get a couple pics of me in my costume. I might put them on a profile somewhere, facebook if I get one...possibly.
A cougar? What can lead a cougar to enter a town?
In any case, I hope no one gets hurt.

I don't really know but it's been spotted eight times, I'm guessing it's after something...all I have is a four foot long, two inch wide, black oak katana to defend my group with if it does come after us. Hopefully it won't enter public while cars and people are running around but on the chance it does I'm partially ready...though I don't want to hurt it I may have no choice in the end, if it doesn't get me first that is.
Scary thought, get my neck broke by a heavy weight kitty...ow's.
Methinks you'd be dead before it broke your neck. Don't think a wooden sword would do jack, either. If it were a serious concern, though, I'm sure there would be plenty of advisories not to go out. If there have been, and you're going out, anyway... well, I'll just say that's silly. :P

Quite possible, It may just be after the deer that roam around our town. I don't think it'd be after people, but a deer is very possible and yes I doubt a wooden sword would do much but hey if I'm still alive and it's after me I ain't getting turned into kitty chow without some attempt to live.
And yea, it is stupid to be running around with a potential threat like a couger but that's not stopping anyone so if it does come it's gonna get a buffet.
But moving on.
I've started learning 2-d animation, hoping to start 3-d animation by next year. Right now I'm doing noobish stuff, sprite animations and whatnot.
*sigh* working early morning shifts isn't fun...It's getting harder and harder for me to get mobile in the mornings.
It would appear this thread is deaded...
Intro. threads don't normally last very long, because they're just that - intro. threads.
True...I actually didn't think this one would last this long but I want to try and keep it going as long as possible.
Wich is becoming increasingly difficult as I've practically run out of things to talk about.

I was going to make a new topic for this but I'll post it in here just so I don't take up space.
I havn't been around long but I usually post a "would anyone be interested in meeting me". No real purpose to it, just out of curiousity really. Anyways if your reading this post and know generally who I am, leave a comment on if you'd like to meet me in person and why.
