Signs of a dying member. Pitchwhite wouldn't stop raving about it until he finally disappeared.

He made it sound horrible though. Like... it was ytmnd+4chan+SHAREANYTHING with usernames.

It's part of GameFAQs isn't it?


In that case, sounds about right.

Thats some info on it.

I'm sure there are many websites who are better than GW at debating(not rpgmaker), I don't really see how this is relevant though. (Oh snap not elitist)

Man you're GW's Silver Defender of Justice, aren't you?

Anywho, I wasn't saying that as an insult or anything; it was more of a bow to how out of all of the forums I visit, only one that I know of is better than one of GW's best attributes.

Not to be rude or anything, what was the point of this topic? Giving tips to fit in? Or what?

I think a lot of the older members are not as active as before like Kezay and stuff. He used to be the shit back in the day but nowadays he just randomly pops up. IRC is a big deal too, I used to be on that like 24/7,

Hehehe it's almost like high school now I don't fit in here, mainly because I don't have the debating skills and to be honest I don't really try to. Plus there's a load of cultural differences and contrast in interests and stuff, so...yeah.

I still linger about on the forums and IRC though, cause it's fun sometimes.

gw has no serious debate forum this is probably why people don't seriously debate??? luckily we kind of compensate by not having garbage reply topics (god bless whoever had the STICKY SHITTY NEWS idea) so you're forced to say something that matters.

honestly my favorite threads, GW or otherwise, that might demonstrate depth of thought tend to spring up independent of original topic. like any kind of derail where someone says something cool or interesting, that's where I really see someone smart or whatever.

idk I've always been somewhat on the fence with the idea of DEBATE FORUMS/TOPICS even though I participate in them and sometimes they are good.

oh this luelinks site is invite only! that probably explains it. man that kind of idea usually falls flat, it's cool that it apparently panned out somewhere.

i think it's because most debate topics go absolutely nowhere and it's actually kind of typical for at least one or two of the parties involved to be complete idiots.  i much prefer just DISCUSSION topics where you just kind of talk about shit instead of arguing about GAY MARRIAGE or whatever.  i've always taken much more away from regular discussions than actual proper debate topics.


also that page seemed to tie luelinks pretty heavily to gamefaqs and i really only think one type of person posts on gamefaqs to begin with!  plus it makes it sound like it's just for porn and warez and shit, like a much larger version of the zoo.

EDIT: Rare instances that I was actually on IRC, I'm sure a lot of you remember me playing Rock Paper Scissors... (well, okay maybe just kaempfer, neophyte and dis...), otherwise it was always bradseguin being a dick "More like Solitary Gayngel" along with bandwagonners joining in
Heh Carius thanks for the premium. I never liked it when you changed your name, I'm glad to see it's back to normal.

Anyway I'm pretty sure I don't fit in, but that's really not that important to me. It's good to see some intelligent people on this forum though, which is why I visit it frequently.
If I ever changed my avatar I am pretty sure some would be like "hey where did that neo guy go" since everybody remembers me by that.

i figure that i don't really fit in here

i used to try really hard to fit in

but then i realized that i didn't really want to???

so now i come here to goof off and laugh at my own jokes

sometimes i will make one that other people laugh at

but most of the time i assume that people generally ignopre my posts

but i love gw all the same


edt: i think the reason i didn't really fit in is because i try not to take anything online seriously ever. that irritates some people, but to be fair it irritates me when people feel the opposite (but not really) i think my favorite thing to do in gw is to make fun of people who take things seriously. i bet there are a few others who like to do this occasionally too. (btw this is probably why you get so much shit mog you need to chillax or go away)

You fit in IMO. You're one of the few members of G&D who isn't a total bitch :)

edit: also it goes back like 60 posts and two months or something why is gw so slow to show post records

I guess i fit in, i mean i started a slight fad, (the kills seven times before he hits the ground thing) but i'v eonly seen that said a few times :P.
Personaly i find this commubnity to be abbrasive but they do it brecuse they don't want 12 year old's with no ability to see other points of view to come in so it means we don't have to talk to idots/morons so in that respect i like it. 
I've done afew things, i mean i made or at least atempted to make a zelda game that apparently a fair amount of people wanted to play it (i think, correct me if i'm wrongh) when i finished it, only to cancel it due to it being badly coded lag tastic peice of targ (remember LOZ: Rise of mozrath?)
Overall i think i fit in, not sure what else to say though :P
RIP DoktorMartini

No, I don't thik I fit in GW, I get like 30%  of the jokes people say, I don't get much into IRC because everytime I get in they're talking about something that doesn't interest me. I'll never understand what targ is and GWhumour is weird like that.
Still for some reason I like it here.
And about people complaining about everything everytime, I think it's how people just are, I'm used to it now.

I feel that I fit into GW. While I don't use the actual forums much, I frequent irc and people ridicule me(i assume friendlily, because if not that would be very rude guys!)/include me enough that I feel people know my name. I mean you're always going to have a group of people who don't like you/think you're dumb in every community, so why not ignore those people?

Edit: It means a lot ASE. Th...Thank you. :fogetcry:​(tears of happiness)

I've only really seen you talk a few times on IRC and you seem to be a cool guy, if that means anything.
