I don't mind the occaisional scrollbar, but if I have to jump around readjusting EVERYONE'S posts to read them, well, that begins to suck.

If your name is blue, I'm going to refer to you as "him" and if you're name is pink then I'm going to refer to you as "her". Don't get all pissy at me either. I can't count the number of times I've mistaken a user for a female when it's quite the opposite.

Yeah, what is it with all this want-to-be Japanese stuff anyway? That people are anime-lovers I can understand, being one myself, going all "omgomg look at me i know 3 japanese words omg lolooooool!11" is just stupid.

I hate scrolling layouts. Having to use the scrollbar in the midst of using the wheel/keyboard is way annoying. I never actually noticed hers though.

Finally, someone who agrees with me. It wa sfunny the first time it happened. The next 378126805764780623046023 times were just annoying. Especially since they started happening every few months, and people would keep their gender-alterated names for months and months.

Is there a contest that gives away a prize the fifitieth person to say SEX CHANGE THREADS AND TRENDS ARE BAD LOLOZ in some way shape of form? Because i have a feeling there is and no one told me about it.

Otherwise, saying it just because someone cool (i.e Leg, Toxic, Tuvai, someone who people actually respect around here) says it does NOT make you cool

Gee I...really don't know what this has to do with scrollbar layouts but...you know what guys...excuse me for living and having a bit of fun. Some people take an avid interest in RPing and not in the actual post-raising shit...so lay off...no one gives a fucking crap if you hate it or not, I sure as hell don't. I'll leave you guys to your whining and bitching about it anyways because I doubt there's going to be one in the very near future just because of the sheer fact that I don't like dealing with the bitching of people that comes with it...I may not care about who thinks it's wrong but it's annoying as hell hearing certain people bitch about it.

My god guys...what the hell happened to individuality? Do I have to fucking go into your standards to generally be a 'good' person in your guys' view or what? Screw that...I'd rather not. So what if I or a few other people are RPing, Japan-loving, manga-reading, anime-watching, fanboys/girls?

Seriously...why don't a few of you just fucking spit in my face (and a few other people) for all I care...because you basically just did that to me and a few other people who grace this board...I just really wish some of you guys would keep your opinions to yourself about a few things.

Leg, Leroy...nothing against you guys personally, at all, I know you guys have a thing against the post raising and swapping over on the colors (it is simply that with layouts and RPing after all) but that doesn't mean you have to be involved with it, ignore it if it riles you up that bad...we haven't done it in months anyways...and most of the RPing stuff that you guys hate so bad are limited to the SF and SB forums exclusively...so I don't know why the hell this shit is coming out now when we haven't fucking heard shit about it for the past few months...I mean what the hell? Are you guys honestly trying to reopen wounds or something? Goddamn guys...be a little smarter for chrissakes...

I don't know what else I can really say...I honestly don't think I can get any more pissed at something like this (and, godforbid, hurt) but lay off...that's all I'm asking...if you don't like it...that's fine and dandy...but I really don't give a shit and I really don't like it being brought out like this and people agreeing on it on impulse because of a few well-known and respected people on here...but goddamn guys...individuality...think for yourself...I dunno wtf this group shit is but it really sucks.

I have to agree with Hiryuu here.

This is *NOT* the pissing and moaning thread. Actually, Tuvai's comments to start off with should have been made in private to Kasumi (or another admin) because I have a funny feeling he knew something would come out of this. But I digress.

Aside from that, the thread was going along swimmingly, Acmlm made some good points, things were going... about as calmly as possible, surprisingly... and then Legion has to put his two cents in. What a surprise... Legion, the world doesn't revolve around you and you're certainly not in a position to put any "demands" on people, sarcasm aside. People don't use the word "baka" in every third post. Sex changes are done for fun and aren't meant to be taken seriously (of course they're only fun if they're not overdone, but...). And I don't think many people "act" Japanese here - unless your definition of that is a lot of , , ^^ and so on emoticons.

I can't believe I have to bring up the title of the board... "Live the fun posting experience". Some of that stuff is, shockingly, fun.

And like Valcion said, enough with the bandwagon-jumping.

Colleen, I think I know when to send someone a PM when it's something private, but in this case, it wasn't pointed towards Kasumi only, but I merely used her as an example.

I guess this sort of did turn into a bitching thread, and I'm cool with that as long as there aren't flames. I really like this thread right now. Colleen, you're claiming the board is all calm, fine and dandy, but it isn't. The proof is this thread, as you can see it's getting more and more filled up with complaints and to be blunt, I understand nearly all of them as I stated (yes, I really HATE the femanisation and Japanese crap because some people just can't resist constantly re-using it).

Right now, the main things I come for to this board are the Programming and AcmlmBoard programming forums. That used to be different, but this place changed, I don't find it enjoyable to post in other places much anymore, merely because I'm basically forced to participate in other people's stupid hypes (IE the femanisation and japanese crap).

I'm a programmer, but I limit all my programming crap to the programming and AcmlmBoard dev forums. Seriously, the people who don't ever go to the programming and AcmlmBoard Development forums, won't even NOTICE I'm a programmer. I keep my preferations and my hypes for myself. Every time this femanisation crap starts the whole board is in ugly colors for days, and, as previously stated, it's merely an unorifinal and stupid repeated hype.

Seriously, I'd like to participate in more things on this board, withOUT having to cope with the annoying "omgomg im teh cute neko!11oneone" or femanisation crap.

You're not forced to do anything. If you don't want to do something, don't fucking do it. It's that god damned simple.

"I'm a programmer, but I limit all my programming crap to the programming and AcmlmBoard dev forums.

It's "feminization", and there's nothing diffrent than the layout changes and colors. Whoopdefucking doo. If you think that's annoying, I'd hate to see you on New Years or Acmlm's birthday. Jesus.

"Seriously, I'd like to participate in more things on this board, withOUT having to cope with the annoying "omgomg im teh cute neko!11oneone" or femanisation crap."

Some people can "ignore" these things. Learn how to do it, please.


And on a side-note if you hate scrolling layouts so much just fucking turn them off.

OK, that's fair enough. I wasn't sure exactly what to make about the opening of your post, but if you were only using her as an example then that's fine.

I guess this sort of did turn into a bitching thread, and I'm cool with that as long as there aren't flames. I really like this thread right now. Colleen, you're claiming the board is all calm, fine and dandy, but it isn't. The proof is this thread, as you can see it's getting more and more filled up with complaints and to be blunt, I understand nearly all of them as I stated (yes, I really HATE the femanisation and Japanese crap because some people just can't resist constantly re-using it).

I'm not sure if it's getting filled with more "complaints" as it is getting filled with "people agreeing with other's statements".

I don't think the board is "calm, fine and dandy", but it's certainly not a cesspool either. We haven't had many problems since the board opened back up, we're trying to cut back on spammy/stupid users...

Right now, the main things I come for to this board are the Programming and AcmlmBoard programming forums. That used to be different, but this place changed, I don't find it enjoyable to post in other places much anymore, merely because I'm basically forced to participate in other people's stupid hypes (IE the femanisation and japanese crap).

Well everyone comes for their own thing - some people (like myself) spread out their posting all over the place, others just use the Programming forums, and still others think that this is the official Lunar Magic board.

Nobody is *forced* to participate in anything. You're not going to be branded "uncool" or "pissy" if you don't want to take part in those fads. There hasn't been an official sex change recently... (and *NO*, guys, don't get any ideas about pulling one out at this time... they're spontaneous. Not planned.) As for the "Japanese crap", I have no problems with people dropping a few words here or there. I think there's a difference between just using the "slang" and trying to "act" Japanese. (Need I remind everyone about "LET'S POSITIVE THINKING!"?)

Seriously, I'd like to participate in more things on this board, withOUT having to cope with the annoying "omgomg im teh cute neko!11oneone" or femanisation crap.

Who exactly runs around saying that they're a cute neko all the time? (I must be missing SOMETHING but I think I know what you mean.)

I really don't see a problem with the sex change stuff. As long as everything's kept in one or two threads in the process and people don't start trying to mess with others by changing their whole bio around/etc... You have to let people have a little fun. And besides, that's been a non-issue since the board restart.

Yes X, I have layouts turned off, and that's unfortunate considering there are some real nice ones between them.

No, I'm not literally forced to participate with all that crap, but it's everywhere when it happens. I've been here for years now, including the Acmlm birthdays and whatever. Though fucking over the whole board's colors isn't exactly my kind of thing, in such an occasion I don't mind. If it's a special day and then fuck it, it's for one day, and I know when that day is over the hippy color crap is gone.

This femanisation crap is constantly returning, and the whole board is covered with that crap when that happens. Even if you don't want to participate, you'll still have to deal with it for a bunch of days. But what's even worse is that there is no whole point in it. Christmas deserves special christmas colors, a special 'scary' layout during Halloween is more than understandable; this sudden femanisation crap isn't.

And this is exactly the kind of crap that turns this kind of thread into trash bin material.

If you just ignore it, well, then good for you, I've been trying to ignore this stuff for long enough now and after so many times it's just pissing me off. If you can't understand the fact that some people, including me, want to bitch about it. Then that's too bad for you. If you don't like all this bitching, then ignore this thread, no?

I'm just saying, you can easily ignore it if you want to. You clearly don't want to and would rather whine about how you can't block out a username being pink.
It's just confusing.

Hiryuu, I find it funny that you whine and bitch about........whining and bitching.

Colleen, once again you show how naive you are about this board. Aren't you the same person who didn't think people spammed to get custom titles and a higher rank in ACS? You just don't get it do you?

And as for me thinking the world revolves around me? I can't believe you of all people said that. I'll leave it at that.

I've always been a big fan of how people don't mind a little complaining here and there. As long as it's something they're against. But touch on something close to home for them and WHAMMO! The nerve gets touched.

A lot of you are being hypocritical. If you don't like it, ignore it? Yeah right! You've all bitched about things on this board before. Especially you Yoshi Arr. Come on now.

Is this thread still open
I think that we should all try and get alone with each other
If their is a big problem or an issue with a layout i am sure the administators will make sure its fixed or contact that person. Though you have an issue maybe it would have been wise to private this person, but also you wanted to see if others had the same issue which is also ok...

I have layouts off...

Always have.

So thats all I have to say on that.


What is exactly classed as "acting japanese"?

Yeah, I find it annoying when people use random japanese words in their posts, but hey, if you know some japanese, use it. Only thing that piss me off are people who type like fangirls but i wouldn't put that as "acting japanese", acting like a fucking moron? Yeah.

It is evident that some people haven't discovered shades.
I bet those people that don't like scrollbarlayouts wants them removed. Well, if you don't like scrolling through a 100x100 box or think 500x500 is too big then there is always regulations, tips, advises to tell the person who does it so they can have a good size on their scrollwindow. 400-500px width and 200-300px height is good. Then you can't bitch about that the layout stretches the thread even if they have a small post because the post table is bigger to begin with. You can't bitch that much of the need to scroll because most people don't write that much to even make a scrollbar come out.

Tuvai: Yoshi never said she was annoyed by this thread. You're just trying to spin it around. But in the end you are biting yourself in the ass. Because you said it yourself, it's easy to ignore a thread (unless you are the dumbest person alive with no selfconstrain at all), just as easy as ignoring sexchanges or stuff like that.

I side with Hiryuu and Colleen for those who didn't figure it out.
Let people be whoever they want, you can bitch about it, you can talk about your ideal fucking world, but don't even try to change them.

And finally, if we'd have layout ignoring checkboxes or whatever, we could put an end to all these discussions about scrollbarlayouts. Because if you don't like it, you can just ignore it. Like with everything else.
