Well, for example, I'm being paid to bum around the house today. It's a national holiday. Don't whinge, we get less national holidays than any other civilised country. Even Belgium gets more.

Why would I whinge? We've got Memorial Day coming up in a few weeks, which you do not. It's all good.

I was under the impression that most of Europe (well, at least the continent) gets more holidays than we do here in the US. Or at least, more paid days off/vacation time, if not actual "observed holidays."

I get 17 days of paid time off to use for sicktime/vacationtime/personaltime + 9 days everyone has off, for a total of 26 days off out of... 52 * 5 business days a week....

260 work days, I get 26 off, work 234.

Do you honestly have it worse?

...

Well, of course... there's 105 days on weekends, too. 105 + 26 = 131 days off, work 234... that sounds a lot better now. #;-}>

Damn straight. My gf would want 5. And I would happily supply them. Then we'd get it on on top of them in the bed.

Interesting theory there. *Coop asks his girlfriend about sweet lurve on top of 5 plush hypnotoads, returns shortly with black eye.* Thanks for that, Greg.

whhoooops... I shoulda put a disclaimer on that post.

Oh wait, no we wouldn't. My gf is always so against "Corrupting the plushies," as she puts it.

Damn impulses.

heh.

Just keep in mind, some Americans don't know there's a Jersey in between England and France and a York in England or an Orleans in France.... but I do. Hence my sensitivity to these matters.

It's a refreshing perspective to hear, trust me. I always get pissed off when I talk to Americans (in particular) and I say I'm from England. "Oh, I've got some relatives up that way - in Providence" That or the funny looks I get when I say Jersey really is a beautiful place.

Heh.

Well, parts of New Jersey are, actually (the woods in the middle of the state, the cranberry bogs, etc.).

With JoS, I still think he's a cunt and if he was on fire, I'd probably roll around laughing at him. Maybe he was an arrogant prick before he became a mod, but he is certainly one now.

That's just what I mean. Is there any kind of oversight over moderators' behaviour other than "Tom/Wade/... will look into it if they receive too many angry PMs about the same moderator"? If not, there should be; the admins have better things to do, and the moderators shouldn't be allowed to be cunts just because the admins can't control them all the time.

It's a balance. If a mod is doing a good job of cleaning up threads like the admins want, then they'll be more tolerant when it comes to user complaints, but if there's enough users complaining loudly enough, then of course the admins will listen and see if the complaints are valid.

yeah you have to post in this thread every single day and congratulate people and have conversations with people in this thread, or else you won't be noticed, because posting in as many little threads in the wi/ht won't get you noticed, even though that's the main part of the wi/ht. i didn't realize that until a couple days ago, but if you want to be a wi/ht member, just post in here all the time and you will be considered a 'where is / how to regular' although i disagree with it, it appears to be the only way to do it, unless you are absent, and pretty much post in EVERY thread in the wi/ht.

You do realise you're going to convince him and other newbies to be postwhores in LUL, which will only make LUL a worse place for regulars to post in and enjoy each other's company than ever before, right?

Right?

Thanks man, you just gave me an idea...I'll write congrats on each page. That should works.

See?

Come on, BH. It ain't cool to basically be counterproductive and half-jokingly encourage folks to spam instead of be helpful, which is kinda the opposite of helpfulness on a place where helpfulness is always welcome.

Not everyone who helps out on the forum gets noticed enough, but this is nothing new. If you hadn't noticed, the election that Recon just ran was the first election in 15 months.

If we'd been holding elections every 3-4months like we were trying to do back in 2005-2006, then I guarantee you you'd already be a member. But we're not, so that's why you haven't been elected yet. Have some patience and please stop complaining, it's depressing.

No one asked him or you or anyone to do that. Well, except BlueHippo just telling the newbie to do so.

Not that I voted in this last election, I didn't even know it was going on, but I've never voted for someone for membership because they kissed ass/congratulated people.

However, it's a simple fact that people who are sociable in this thread (whether that's by making congrats lists or just shooting the breeze or rank/statbragging) are going to get NOTICED more, and that is true. But that's nothing special about Wi/Ht?, that's called human society.

If I really wanted to I could post a stat everyday;
1100 posts yesterday, 1111 posts.... 12500 blams/saves (I will get that today by the way). I don't come into this thread unless I have something to say (12500 B/P's and 1111 posts).

Yes, but most of us outgrow that phase, now don't we. I don't honestly think BlueHippo is going to regress and start doing all the wrong things just so he can get elected into the membership. Do you?

Congratulations to all the new Wi/Ht? members that did real work for this forum.

Is "pointse" some sort of unholy cousin to goatse?

IT'S WHAT I KNOW, MAN. This ain't just opinion. It's rockhard, rocksolid music FACT.

A fact huh still sounds like personal opininions to me, rock and rock it maybe but still just a hypothesis, not law.

FAIL.

Well, I can't wait to try those two for SA, then.

Good, but be aware of the Alpha it seems like a fast car but it sucks. The best car would be Bullet.

Kay kay.

Every single vehicle has a real life counterpart in GTA, though, no matter how hard or easy it is to see from how it looks or from the name. I always know from the looks, personally. The name is seldom close.

Right I admit I have a hard time telling the names apart. I think inferus=lambo cheetah=ferrai comet=porcshe banshee=viper Bullet=Ford GT. Correct if wrong.

Yep. In Vice City, at least:

Infernus = Lamborghini Countach (prolly my fave car growing up in the 80s, BTW)
Cheetah = Ferrari Testarossa (the most classicest of 80s Ferrari styleses)
Stinger = Ferrari Daytona Spyder 365 GTS/4 (as in Miami Vice's pilot)
Comet = Porsche 911 Carrera
Phoenix = Pontiac Trans-Am
etc.

Although I read that the Infernus is a Vector M12 in GTAIII (I haven't gotten that far in the game yet) and an Acura NSX in GTA:SA, so apparently a lot of the cars are different real life models in different GTA games.

What's up with that, anyway? O_o

Anyway, here's a nice photo gallery of all the vehicles in GTA:VC:

http://www.guru.net.nz/games/gtavc/

Uh yes there might be cars stat list to compare I like it becuase its harder to steal. You have cheetah only 2 fags with uzi compared to 3 fbi cars with 12 feds with smg's. The GTA 3 car(Kurma=Neon) was cool too. for SA its stupid SUVs

Ah, so it's the challenge. Plus, just getting up to 5 stars instead of just 3 stars needed to get the car to even come out, of course. #;-}>

But I like the Cheetah's speed. It's hard to control at top speed, though. Infernus = better handling, so I wish there was a VCPD Infernus, personally.

That would be cool. Handling is a better a aspect than speed.

Yah, yah. A lot of people apparently swear by Banshees and Stingers for stability and handling. I think Infernus is the perfect mix between the high speed of a Cheetah but more stability like those, though.

Ha thats sucks the suckers. Some place need a pcj though I cant one on the top 2nd island ( north of the mall.)

Yeah, that one's been driving me crazy.

There was a tough one near the airport, too, but I finally got that one with a PCJ... I can't get the one you just mentioned. That one plus 2 others is killing me.

Yeah yeah I tried fusing gfoxclock with Dr. Nick and FA-aled. Glick is too close to Jimminy Glick. I hope the gfox smilie represented you knowing that.

I know teh character, but I wasn't actually thinking of that fusion. Good... attempt... there. I AM NOT MARTIN SHORT. #;-}>

I would like to think so.

I don't honestly think BlueHippo is going to regress and start doing all the wrong things just so he can get elected into the membership. Do you?

Not worried about membership, I would have liked to before, now. If I get it I will be happy, if I get reccomended for it. I will be happy to. But it isn't something I am actively seeking. Alot seems to have changed in the past year on NG. I am still finding small changes.

Who said I am making a big deal? It was one post. Relax.

On a seperate issue, but maybe leading me to make the statement as it was discussed in AfroUnderscoreStuds' top 300 B/P users thread there have been some moddings on NG of some users that may not have been for the best (for this forum). I would hate to see the same thing.
Naturally I do not expect a mod to be perfect 110% of the time nor make decisions that I agree with we are only human. I would like to see this list do well with good people - that is my concern. I am happy it will stay that way.

yes i know i remember being upset last time i didn't make it too, but i really didn't care as much back then.

yes yes i know. that's what i said. i had several members tell me that they voted for me, but i told them that their vote was null, and only 4 votes were being cast. i told myself that i was going to be done complaining, but my boss had made me trash 4 days worth of work earlier and i was rather upset, and needed to bitch about something.

sorry for being a baby, it's out of my nature to complain about such things. and what does it matter that i didn't make the list? i dunno, i was already bitching about the LUL before the elections were even cast.

but my feelings still stand about the people who shamelessly use this thread for a +1 postcount all the time, just by copying other peoples lists. not like you and coop though, who actually take the time to go through the thread, like i used to at one point and grew dull of.

all i know is i will continue to do what i can in the wi/ht, let the cards play themselves. i know i've said i was sorry several times but it's hard not to when i just made an ass of myself (but honestly i was just going to get VPOY to delete my posts on IRC when i got back (SEXIEST NEW MOD EVAR))

I help people out in the threads other than just posting in Wi/Ht, so there's another part of your argument blown out of the water. Sometimes I can't as I don't know the answers and sometimes, because someone else (absent usually) has already answered. To me, it seems silly to re-iterate what someone else is saying unless you are going to add anything new. That's just a cheap way of getting post +1

TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN:
I think the LUL is a great place, it allows regulars to talk, newbies to get some recognition for things they do on NG and for even some questions to be answered. I myself post here to sow my appreciation for the amazing things that some users do, also gives me motivation to try and best their achievements. And yes the Wi/Ht? members were, for the most part, regulars of this thread, but they all contributed to making this forum a better place, and put alot of hard work and effort in doing so. I myself try when I can to answer some of the questions answers on this forum but usually they are covered already. Which just shows how the system works.

Did you receive an admission that your bans were in error and/or an apology? Mistakes do happen, yes, but saying that they do is not a valid defense unless it's actually accompanied by an attempt to make up for past mistakes and ensure that future mistakes won't happen. (Which, I might add, is something that should probably be said to those who banned you rather than you, of course.)

In any case, metamoderation would still be helpful. If one decision a mod makes is metamoderated as inappropriate once or twice a year, that's probably to be expected, but if you get half a dozen complaints per month, something's likely wrong, and a red flag should be raised. In other words, metamoderation is not actually about zero tolerance; it's just an answer to the question of quis custodiet ipsos custodes.

I myself try when I can to answer some of the questions answers on this forum but usually they are covered already. Which just shows how the system works.

Boy, do I ever know how that feels. I once tried to help out people by answering questions, but gave up after a few days because there never were any that were a) unanswered and b) answerable. :P

yeah. It's a start at least.

Now, why is the portal not active. I went on before I went to school today, there was 19 flash movies. Now 3 or 2...

I guess that is what happens when you got to go to school. The portal is 9/10 slow around this time of day. oh for my next milestone past

I suppose it did, I stopped depositing and all for a while. Anyway, WOW you actually congratulated everybody. Very classy. NG BBS needs more users like you.

Newgrounds already has many great users, much of whom post in here. I am in no way one of them. And I don't think I'll ever compare to what they have done here. But I really respect and thank you for your kind words, Snubby. :D

Elite Guard General, and 9.00+ VP :D

Now to wait like, a long time before the next badge.
But I did get a pretty big boost in VP with this one

Elite Guard Second Lieutenant! And when rank is updated, I'll be in the top 350 b/p points.

Yeah, it's quite a pain. I only made about 7 B/P yesterday. Ever since PSD there are not that many new flash to vote on.

Forget about it BlueHippo. You think I didn't see the election was more of a popularity contest than anything else? Hell, absent should've been the 29th member but unfortunately he had to settle for 32nd. I'm a little worried how the next one will go now that friends of friends are Wi?Ht? members. I have the sinking feeling people will continue to vote for who they like, not who's the most deserving. Really turns my stomach. Stick around bud and I'll vote for you. I'm not blind to what's going on despite my decreased attendance. ^_~

my posts and my post average are the same :O at 2812 and 2.812

That's because you're on NG since at least 1000 days.

Oh, and I just saw that I entered Top 20000 in exp points.
