Posts: 504/808		 Been a while since anyone's butchered my name quite that bad, but I'm quite used to it.

If you must, just Kai will suffice.

I had plans to do so but without people bothering me it quickly falls off my priority list.

Hell, the onlyl reason this got done was because Kallieain (sorry, honestly, it's a complex name) bugged me about it at 5 AM.

Also, Pokemon hacking has been merged into ROM Hacking again, and been converted into ROM Hacking-Related Releases, which does not require approval.

Victory! Did any of the most recent idiots put you over the top on this subject? There were a few ridiculous ones just this week.

HinTom I Cant wait to see you on Thursday Meline And Aidan Hare On Thursay

I Sake it Going bee Wedsday I Cant Wati to see you
Take to you soon I Am email you at 400pm
Love Katie See you at 300pm On This Thursday

Since I can read that, I guess reading posts made by the typing deficient really doesn't bother me that much.


Please say English is not her first language...

How about putting something in the rules about how to get an account? I.E. PM a mod, at least it would show they have read the rules.

Posts: 431/536		 Rom hackers to Jesus is quite a comparison.

Also, I didn't mean that automatic approval for known successes would be an ego boost, though it would. What I meant was that you seemed to think it was somehow wrong to force experienced hackers to ask for approval, like it was an insult. I was pointing out that in the approval threads for experienced hackers, it's really more of a complimentary thread like that one I posted above.

Err, I should have checked that link. It's fixed now.

Posts: 153/179		 They will be revealed for who they are once everybody starts asking questions about the game they made an editor for.

But I suppose that's true that it would be too much of an ego boost. People hack games for fun, not solely for recognition.

I guess even Jesus needed to be baptized.
