I dont think so as lightning is offering Via email this is not on NG's forums and NG should not be in any trouble as they ahve nothing to do with this free flash offer also this came into play when the rule that no pop up links were allowed, at this time lightning has a link to the worlds most ultra pop up site but this was not breaking the rules at it was the users own free will to click it and if his posts are going to be there anyway why not add a joke to the end?
Also if you read the rules it says no topics about leveling up were screwed also Gozzy you know when you get thrills over new NG buttons if you read the rules it says they dont want that and i think you can be banned but even funnier your not allowed to say gay alot so im fucked by talking about my phobia of gays which MSAfreak brought on....

Over all it jsut proves rules are there to be broken....

Since theres a thread. WAhoo i got my first blam entry today. lol and im lvl 4 i think... *smile* it took me like... 4 days to get to lvl 4 Lmao

Oh wow i also blammed another one. its my lucky day.

Hey spancker, if the administrators can move topics from one forum to another, can they change the name of a topic once it's started??

Yea Recon i guess they can but i think this name is good enough already unless they make it:
Level up, Rank up, Where is/how to club/crew/collective
Also ViviOrnitier please odnt double pst jsut to tell us about a new blam youve got i get one about ever 5 minutes (consdiering blam and protect points ;-p) just think before posting.....

i dont want to be with u guys any more im to busy for u guys

That means you've posted or are trying to post the same message. Obur_2, don't post that many times in a row without saying something REALLY important! Stuff like that can get you in trouble with the moderators.

A few other things. Yeah. #;-}> Sorry for passing you, but at least I didn't knock you off the list. I feel bad about knocking the guy I knocked off, but hey, he wasn't getting any blams or protects at all, another guy woulda done it within a day or two if I hadn't.

I consider it's "unhealty" to vote the weekend ... but you guys dont seem to think the same :P

Unhealthy? Whatever! The only unhealthy thing to do is blam and save all night long (and aside from it wrecking your sleep schedule, it also is not the best time, at least here in the US, to get points anyway). What's wrong with doing it on the weekends?

Yeah exactly, I'm in agreeance here. Weekends are the only time I can access NG in peak time! Unless I wag school, or it's the holidays, like now! Woohoo, holidays and Easter today!

Also Recon, I don't get the pilot and burrito pic. Is the plane blowing up because the pilot farted or something? Eh... I'm lost.

Aye, that they did. Well, not exactly. They kept the actual TEXT limit the same, but they added a higher HTML limit for non-visible stuff. So that's how I can have a link to my profile, the blam/save top 50, and to the Where is/How to? forum.

And thanks to you as well.

The portal buddy thing, AFAIK (since I'm not a flash artist, I haven't checked it out for myself, and it may have been slightly changed since Tom introduced it via a topic), works as follows: if you want to share credit with someone on a flash movie, you make them a buddy. They have to confirm it. So if someone asks you to be buddies, you should make damned sure you either A) trust them, or B) have worked with them on an actual flash. Once that happens, when you make a flash you can add them to the credited authors, and they can add you to the credited authors on their flashes. Thus the trust issue--make sure you haven't become buddies with people who will either try to use your good name as a flash artist to up the vote of their so-so flash or worse yet, people will drag your reputation through the mud with a horrible or offensive or hateful crappy flash with your name added in the credits.

To me, it sounds like a good system, but one rife with potential problems. If everyone is careful who they buddy up with, it'll be okay.

When I first bought this computer, the guy I bought it from gave me some games along with it. I never thoroughly checked them out, but yesterday I did, and I found that one of the games was Daggerfall. You weren't joking when you said it had an almost infinite map. I must have played that thing for close to 10 hours, which would explain my gain of next to no points yesterday.

ahhhh. What a wild conincidence. Cool, glad you liked it (least, I assumed you did, why else would you play for 10 hours? #;-}>). I remember wasting many an hour trying to get a better sword for my main warrior in that game... yep... anyway, how old is your computer, anyway? Daggerfall doesn't seem like a game anyone would have put on a comp recently. Intriguing.

Anyway, that game was a good suggestion, and I'll be sure to check out some others you mentioned. Oh, and congrats on being the newest club member.

Cool beans, have fun. Oh, BTW, Arena is the name of Elder Scrolls 1. I tried to find it once I was done with Daggerfall (ES2), but I could never get it anywhere, even online at the company website. I've never played it, but I bet it's a good RPG as well. Now, if only I could get a new comp so I could play ES3: Morrowind... yes...

And thanks for the congrat. #;-}>

Dude, what's with all these acronyms? I'm seeing them everywhere and I don't recognise most of them. Like this AFAIK one and another one I saw around, JSYK or something. Wait I just got a brainwave. Does JSYK = Just So You Know? Whoa, don't know how I thought up that one. I still don't have a clue on the AFAIK thing though. Mind enlightening me on this situation?

You can say gay all you want, man. You just can't call PEOPLE gay as an insult.

For instance:

I'm feeling gay today. Yes, so very happy. What a gay day it is, a wonderful spring day. Yes... Oh look, a gay man over there! He's such a friendly homosexual.

that's okay.

But:

You stupid fucking gay bastard, you're so goddamned gay, fuck you!

etc. etc...

that would not be so okay.

Exactly. The jet is actually in the process of breaking the sound barrier (approx. 760 mph at sea level). I like the other explanation.

I just used JSYK in another thread about 30 minutes ago, so I think you might be talking about me using that as WELL. heh.

AFAIK = as far as I know (one of the most common acronyms, IMO (in my opinion), I've used it since 1994)
JSYK = just so you know (just as you guessed... basically the same thing as FYI (for your information))

if this was a chatroom instead of a BBS, I'd be using this acronym more than any other:

BRB = be right back

At 4/19/03 09:45 PM, gfoxcook wrote: definitions

Yeah, when I got JSYK I thought that AFAIK might have 'know' in the end as well. I know IMO and IMHO (in my honest opinion) and I know FYI extremely well. The last message boards I frequented had a really annoying user who used to use FYI a real lot.

And yeah, if this were a chatroom, BRB would be king.

Holy crap! I just went digging to find my first post in this topic, and found it was on page 25! That means I have been participating in level up! for 77 and 3/11% of the time! Whoa...

erm... I think you misunderstood me:

Drimarki signed up to *NG* itself, not the club, one day after level up! was created. Check his profile, then check page 1.

I don't know when he signed up to the club, I didn't bother to search in this thread for that, for all I know some of the people said "sure" to Spancker by e-mail or something.

Anywho.

1500!

Nice conversing with you for once today gfoxcook, you aint so bad.

I sense Recon_Rebel isn't happy about something but I didn't understand his post so I hope things get better for you Recon!

Actually, I'm not too sure how old it is. He probably had the game longer than he had this particular computer, though.

I'm pretty interested in that game, at this point. What exactly are the system requirements?

I don't remember exactly, but they're above a P2-266 (my comp). Maybe P3-500 or so.

Yeah, but that's not what he misunderstood. He thought I'd said Drimarki signed up to be Member #2 of Where is/How to? on the day after spancker posted that level 11 post to start this thread, but I meant Drimarki signed up for a NG account on that day.
