...I didn't know you were applying.  Oh well, you learn something new everyday.  I have mine pretty much done, just... you know, haven't bothered to post it yet. :\ |

| It was totally random up to a point but now I think they're fixing it somewhat... hot ladies coming to the ring and all. :\ ECW PPV tomorrow. Wrestling-wise, with 4 potentially good matches (Benoit/Guerrero, Storm/Jericho, Rey/Psic, Tajiri/Guido/Crazy), it could be excellent providing they don't work WWE-style. |

I think you knew there would eventually be a deadline, Kitten Yiffer.  Of course, the fact that you had over a month shouldn't mean you're rushing to do things at the last minute. :\ |

Actually, by that logic I should go and re-promote Dani. XD |
(...That would just be met with a collective "WTF", but it would be good for a laugh nonetheless.)

Exactly, if the jumps are all spread out then nothing would happen - and that's ASSUMING that the force created by all those jumps could actually affect the Earth in some way. |
He'll be lucky to get 60,000 people jumping, tops.

1) Don't bump old, outdated topics. |
2) You really should properly log in to your account so that you can read the message that I sent to you.

I like apple, orange and grape, but I also love stuff like fruit punch and some various flavors we have here. |
Bananaorange (...guess.) and peach are tremendous. So is pear.

Mine's already done, I just haven't submitted it yet since I had no idea what was going on or whether it would have been necessary in the end. Now we're no longer in the dark, so... |

The problem is that I sent Tanookirby a nice little PM about it. He actually has 3 PM's in his inbox, actually. The problem is that he's not formally logging in to the board at the moment, meaning that he can't see that there's new, potentially important PM's in there. |

Name: Colleen |
Age: 22 Sex: Male Areas of expertise: Mediating, taclking hard situations head-on, intelligent, open to ideas/criticism. Skills: Managing to stay generally active around the board/online most of the day, capable of juggling real life/online life without any real hassles, willing to perform board maintenance/administrative work when needed. Highest Obtained power level: Admin Recommendations: Elric, Tarale (Taryn), Anya, Hiryuu, Kasumi-Astra Having been a member of the board for nearly four years now and on staff for a majority of that time, I've seen a lot of users (both good and bad) come and go over that timespan. I've pretty much seen the majority of the board's evolution, actually; the different staff eras, the controversies, the good times as well as the really bad ones. This isn't particularly one of the good times; general activity is down, spam is starting to become a bit more prevalent and a lot of the "old guard" either isn't as active as they once were or simply aren't posting, period. Simply put, the board has seen better days, and while some people might be correct in saying that it's "declining", it certainly isn't a lost cause. I've been registered on the board for over three years; my fourth anniversary is coming up in July. I've been on staff ever since late 2001, including two and a half years as admin; barring any Internet problems on my end, I am online every single day and check the board several times a day. Through that time, I along with the rest of my fellow staff members have had to deal with various crises, arguments and security issues; yet through it all, we've always come out on top. People are not afraid to approach me if they have a concern to address or need some administrative work done, and I always listen to them or comply with their requests. Obviously there's always going to be some people on any board who feel that their job is to make other's lives miserable or stir the pot, but I've generally made sure that those people don't get an opportunity to rock the boat too much. So, why do I want to continue being an admin on the board? Simple answer. I've grown way too attached to this puppy to let it go just yet. This has pretty much been my main Internet home for the last four years, surprisingly. I didn't intend for it to be at first, but that's how things worked out in the end. And surprisingly, I actually enjoy my job; I don't mind doing lots of things that some people may call tedious, like name changes and the like. I don't consider it a huge inconvenience to have to keep track of everyone on the board and hand out punishments as necessary. To put it bluntly, if I had gotten sick of the board, wasn't having fun or felt that I could no longer do a good job on staff, I would have left a long time ago. The general structure of the board itself right now is stable, but it still has the potential to come crashing down at any given time. We need to move forward with a solid plan that ensures several things; first off, that the staff on the board is unbiased, active and able to do their jobs to the best of their ability; secondly, finding ways to increase activity on the board; and finally, to make sure that the board continues to thrive in the future by attracting solid new members and possibly bring back some old hands as well. The new staff also can't be easy-going; on the other hand, they certainly can't be strict and unrelenting as well. We need to have a staff that can be tough but fair if called upon to do so. To conclude... I know that I'm not perfect. It would be a stretch to say that any member of the staff is perfect to begin with. We all make decisions sometimes that other people may not be necessarily happy with, and we all lose our cool sometimes as well; that's human nature. Ultimately, however, the board needs a staff who knows how to do their job and who can be relied on to keep the board in order and help it to grow. If there's any chance of the board rebounding, it could very well hinge on this staff restructuring. I know that, regardless, I'm up to this task of helping to make that happen.

Definitely is, and it probably would have just come out 12 years ago or so too. |
It's probably the best out of all the Wisdom Tree games, meaning that it's playable. Not an awesome game, but a decent Zelda clone.

Nobody's seen her for eons. At least, not that I know of. |
Then again, Mesia and Skydude registered so you never know with those oldbies.

I wouldn't put any socks on, to be honest... I'd agree with what others said. Let air get to your feet, put some cream/aloe on them, and try not to walk unless it's necessary (and if you do, then put the socks on). As long as you don't irritate them, you should be OK. |

Pepsi Plunge wouldn't work at all. I don't even know if he'll have the same gimmick... :\ Oh well. Good to see someone get some financial security, although the importance of his role is anyone's guess. |

Plus the Val/Jiz scenario was totally different both in terms of severity and circumstance as this was, which is why I feel it wasn't such a big deal in retrospect and didn't exactly shake the foundations of the board. |
That's what this week is for. XD (I kid... I think. I'm pretty sure I kid.) Legion - You ever check his work on other forums? Very rational and fair, actually. And active, that's always a plus.

Actually, yesterday had over 500 posts, and I kinda have an idea why that was the case... even if you toss Tanookirby's posts from yesterday. (Which I did ranking-wise.) |
