The signature I use is *not* of my design. I am a gamer, not a photoshop hound, therefore this sig was created by a forum member nearly a year ago, and he sent it to me as a gift of sorts. (Since I asked for a sig) Lollipoplollita sort of backhanded me in a reply to one of my posts and used my sig as the focal point of her assault, so I thought that needed to be mentioned.

However, because I realize it is lame, I happened to get two friends of mine on ICQ to come up with something better. Hopefully, in a day or two, I'll have a new one.

Well, theres his first one. My friend wyndshado, the guy who did the banner for my website, did that logo in about half an hour. He said he can do better, but with the 35K limit, it makes it hard. Not bad, eh?

Take that, lollipop http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_wink.gif

So I backhanded you in the lounge despite you admitting it's lame?

But you can say this?

You call that an assault? Can't handle constructive criticism? Least it got you a better sig. You got a problem with me, stick to just pming me instead of making a completely new thread about it.

Welp, moving this to rants.

If PSOW is such the hell hole people say it is, they better start looking for greener pastures.

We have had many things added and fixed to the site, and we have many more things planned, but if thats not good enough for some people, if PSOW is such a crap-ass place to be, then why are they still here? Why do they keep coming back?

Well, the truth is, they just like hassling people who they feel are threatening. Lollipop moved it here even though it technically belonged in Off Topic.

Why? More then likely because she/he felt threatened. Whether it be from me being more of a PSOW veteran then her/him, or the fact that I'm one of the few geuinely intelligent people left in this community, it was obviously something.

I still refuse to be the way Spy is, however. You can call me an egotistical man, a eccentric man, or an instigator, but you will never call me a Brown Noser. I'm suddenly getting a foul taste for this board anyway.

It was so much better when amber X Viento was the mod, she always went out of the way to guard me.

Though, I do get the last laugh. These mods are more then likely teenage, or perhaps, in their early 20's, and incapable of leaving their houses due to the sunlight scorching their sensitive skin.

As David Lee Roth once said...

"We came here to entertain you, leaving here, we aggravate you...dont you know it means the same to me?"

I'll see you tiny kids in the game.
As for the mods, sad that back when me, cheech, and akumi ruled this board, they were nobodies lurking in the background.

You know, it's that elitist feeling that ran this place to shit before you decided to make a triumphant return.

Join dates mean nothing.

If you want to stand out, do it through posting, not something as cosmetic as when you showed up.

It's funny, you come back, and who's the nobody? Two people remember you?

*hiccup*

No offense, but we've heard "it was better when..." so many times while you were gone. This place goes through tons changes on a constant basis, and I'm glad it does. If a certain group were settled into running this place, it'd be too hard to make any changes. The renewal of members makes it worth my coming back to. I love seeing new faces all the time. I also love seeing old faces come back. But I don't love the bickering between the old members and the new members. The only difference is who was here first. Now doesn't that sound a lot like kindergarten? It's like a good game of musical chairs right after nap time.

I don't mean to bash, but I've heard this too often during my time here.

So, by your idea of being here earlier, if you do something wrong, I should ignore my status as a mod just because of you joined a long time before I did?

Heh, sorry. I will not be unfair to the community based on the ideas of community.

And you know, Sheogorath, it is not that big of a deal to make something this big out of it...

Bleh, this is out of control...

I know Sheo. I gamed with him many times. He is a really, really good guy who I would trust with anything.

Sheo you're obviously pissed off, and I understand why [believe me I do]. My first three posts I made when I came back here were moved and locked. That was my welcome back. I guess I broke the rules. Well this is PSOW now.

Oh, and Sheo, Spy really isn't a brown noser. Gotta take you to task on that one.

See you on ragol in ep2 Sheo.

Off topic is for those that hold a subject out of context with the rest of the board. Rants is for those that wish to express personal greif and/or annoyance. You achieve both of those tones so therefore your topic sits here in rants.

First off, intelligence is a shown trait and not a boastful one. Secondly, the join date theory degrades ones intelligence if your theory would be correct you would concider yourself better then I for this board? Another appreciated comment I must say. Third, its quite obnoxious to express superiority over those that play a console game and post in a message forum devoted to those that play a console game.



I still refuse to be the way Spy is, however. You can call me an egotistical man, a eccentric man, or an instigator, but you will never call me a Brown Noser. I'm suddenly getting a foul taste for this board anyway.


Who needs to compare ourselves once again to a individual other then yourself? You already compared yourself to a whole community that already proved your ego quite well. An instigator would rally others into an argument, you seem to just be rallying yourself into a argument, thought it does go with the egoistic part.



It was so much better when amber X Viento was the mod, she always went out of the way to guard me.


How odd, do you often put yourself in a position to be guarded? Personnally if thats how you go about things I have much more respect for the younger generation that are currently active on my site. They deal with their problems themselves and truthfully they deal with it in a much more mature privately manner then you your intellectually enhanced self does. Perhaps your roleplaying some kind of alter ego you don't get to lead in real life? eh only you would know that.



Though, I do get the last laugh. These mods are more then likely teenage, or perhaps, in their early 20's, and incapable of leaving their houses due to the sunlight scorching their sensitive skin.


Actually, I'm 21. Here I'll give you some egoistic thoughts of my own since you only seem to be able to prove yourself by what you feel you are. I'm a programmer of over 10 languages which I have mastered. Self taught, having actually taught myself to master a IBM Mainframe on my own. I'm one of the leading authors of the nation for one particular language which I have been recognized by a few organizations for. I am noted as the leading authority in my entire state for general unix knowledge, actually I was also proven in testing for this. I am noted by the government for my vast knowledge and intelligence. I was a MIS Director at the age of 19.

Blah blah, wow I feel so accomplished now. Actually wrong I feel entirely bored of proving any knowledge that I myself might possess to a maturity lacking, redundantly self-proving, riddled man that has tooken up exactly 4 minutes 32 seconds of my beautiful morning.

You know you sound like you might have some formal technical education of some sort. Pitty I probably have achieved more then what you could dream of before your first graduation.

Oh and to note. My accomplishments actually FABLE that to some of our current mods/admins.



As for the mods, sad that back when me, cheech, and akumi ruled this board, they were nobodies lurking in the background.


And personnally you don't speak about my mods without also referring the comment to myself. If join date actually means something to you I will go ahead and note that I was helping gideon with this board months before he finnally forced me to make a forum account. Where would that place me? Actually it places me right mid january when the site began. Do you think gideon would turn over the entire site to nobodies?

pfft I suppose I should feel some kind of relief expressing my dis-belief in your poorly expressed unconfident feelings. I don't, I feel like I need to go potty now.

ta ta for now.

Why whine about PSOW? It simply is the way it is. The 'old' PSO world is gone, forever. The only way you're going to get it back is to build a time machine and get goin. This place isn't going to suddenly revert just because you think it should. I suggest you get with the new way. Or you could always leave.

This will probably go in one ear and out the other (i'm obviously a retard because of the point in my life at which I began attending this site) but there's always hope.

[Edit: If you want a sig, all you have to do is ask. I'd be happy to make you one.]

You haven't been back long enough to know what any truth is. You said the board has declined on one of your first days back, and you could'nt be further from it. Atleast give educated remarks.



or the fact that I'm one of the few geuinely intelligent people left in this community, it was obviously something.

Thats a nice backhand to all of the regular posters we have had here, which were here the whole time you were gone and before.

How can you feel so above all the other people here, you haven't even been back long enough to know anyone.



Whether it be from me being more of a PSOW veteran then her/him

Sure, you might have joined before at an early date, but look at your join date now, Oct 22, 2002. I bet thats a thorn in your side, huh?



I'm suddenly getting a foul taste for this board anyway.

As I already stated, why are you still here? If coming to PSOW is so harmful to your senses and your person, then just stop clicking whatever shortcut or link to this site that you have. God forbid people who can't stand PSOW's staff or community should ever be forced to visit here on a daily basis.



Though, I do get the last laugh. These mods are more then likely teenage, or perhaps, in their early 20's, and incapable of leaving their houses due to the sunlight scorching their sensitive skin.

I'm 19, I've been working for an established rehabilitation company for over the past year.

Running the gamut from writing contracts, manuals, official letters to people in high offices and any company papers that need made. I also double as a therapy aid and a computer specialist for the company. I do work in the company that would take atleast two or three different people.

Does that make me a "good" person? Not by far.
Does that give me status here at PSOW? Not at all.

Should it give me either? No.

Although I wasn't aware that age had any significance on ones accomplishments in life.

So lets see, post count and a person's age factor in to whether or not they are worth your company? How elitist is that?

By the way, what do you do sheogorath? I see that you are 27 and do networking and techsupport. You want a pat on the back for it? I'm tech-support for the entire company I work for, which spans about 10+ facilities on the east coast. I was offered to go into networking already, but declined since I'm working full-time for the current company.



I'll see you tiny kids in the game.

Thats rude to the majority of posters here. Atleast the vast majority of these "kids" are highly matured.



As for the mods, sad that back when me, cheech, and akumi ruled this board, they were nobodies lurking in the background.

Oh, I see, I see. So the nobodies like your revered amber X Viento just stood around waiting for someone to pick on you, and aside from that you modded the forums, kept watch over any trouble makers, made additions to the site and made sure everyone was enjoying the forum?

I care not for your respect, but while you are, as hurtful to yourself as it is, posting here, you will follow the rules.

As taken from the official PSOW forum rules:

2. Do not attack the moderators. The moderators do your dirty work for you. They are here for your benefit, not to abuse you with their powers. (However, if you make an effort to upset a mod, they will not hesitate to ban you.)

Note: The moderators were chosen here because we feel they deserve and can handle the job. If you are unhappy with a moderator or the way the forum is ran, you are welcome to find another PSO related forum to post in. Whining about or holding a vote against a moderator will not institute any type of change in staff. PSOW is not a democracy nor is it your playground.

5. Respect EVERYBODY in the forum. Everyone's equal here. This forum isn't just for one group or individual. Flaming will not be tolerated. You flame, you get banned. Racist remarks or ethnocentrism will result in banning. So, don't.

Note: Flamebaiting, or throwing remarks at users in attempt to get them to flame you, is just as bad as flaming.

11. Please address any personal issues or complaints about members by PMing a mod instead of taking it out on the board. If you have suggestions, issues, or complaints about the board itself, please use the Site Related forum.

By posting in the forums, you hereby acknowledge these rules.

Here, you might want to read the Forum Rules (http://www.pso-world.com/faq.php?myfaq=yes&id_cat=9&categories=Forum) so you know what is and isn't allowed.

i for one have not said anything to flame you. i was cordial, i was never rude. but yet, you accuse me of being a stupid newbie and joyfully fill my pm box.

i also experience no need to type extra long private messages and posts demeaning and putting down other people. but hey, if you get some kick out of it, you're welcome to.

i do not have to prove myself to anyone much less someone who can't take "*shudder* lens flare". i do not get some joy out of needing to list out my accomplishments or bragging about my intelligence. i do not feel some need to make myself feel better than people. i have enough happiness and joy in my life. i do not need to demean my life into a short summarized list.

i for one think we have good members. but we don't need negativity and elitism.

Sheo, if anything, please do not demean the users of this site. There are lots of accomplished members who in their own right should be respected. I have plenty of respect for each and every member of this board, and every member should be treated equally and fairly, young or old. psow is not anyone's playground. psow is a community, a community's atmosphere, while set by its mods and admins,depends on its members. we at psow have a thriving community. we have members who enjoy the site. intelligent or not, they dont' deserve to be put down. don't just stereotype our diverse members. especially the mods. they do their work voluntarily, and like me, they want to see psow be a better place and are actually working for it. we the staff, serve the members of the community. and mods are chosen members who have a recognized wisdom to carry on the proceedings of the boards.

my job as an admin is to ensure psow is a good place to post. i do not go out of my way to protect anyone. and psow is how it is now, it will never revert to the summer of '01. but a lot of things have changed. it so happens that lots of people think the boards improve. i'm sorry you don't agree, but hey there's other boards. you're not bound to psow.

dg: as for threads being moved. psow now has a lot mroe boards than when you first joined. and each board has a function. therefore, certain threads belong in certain boards.

This is already out of hand. *lock*
