[QUOTE="bobbymcbobob"]

m name is laurence and i live inaustralia. I'm a junior in high school and i like to chill with friends play sports n play video games...

btw just wondering... what's beingf "modded"? how do you get "modded"? how do i know if i've been "modded"? wtf's a rap sheet?

bob_newman

Type up some insults and swears and you'll find out. :)

[QUOTE="Sants412"][QUOTE="m_machine024"][QUOTE="Jaysonguy"]

I'd just like to say that I make fun of and mock my friends so if I mock you don't take offense.

Oh and also don't report me either because holy cow I have a rap sheet that is just freaking unbelieveable lol

I wish some of you could see my TOS warnings lol

Jaysonguy

Well mine are mostly accidents.

Like I never plan to go out and say "I'm sorry but I could find better remarks from the goats at the local petting zoo"

It's that the tone of a lot of my posts sometimes sound like I'm a jerk but I ALWAYS sound like a jerk lol

Plus some people make posts that cross your eyes. It's like "No they did NOT just post that" then you read it again and you're like "they did, they went out and posted that" Then I'm a smart alec and you don't see me post for 3 days lol

Thankfully the more I've been posting the more the Mods get used to my posting and understand that I don't mean offense like 99% of the time

I will often find myself typing something really mean and offensive in response to people who are annoying or just plain idiots, but then when I get to the end of what I had to say I realize that I'll just get in trouble and backspace. I guess it's good to get things off your back, it always makes me feel better.

Yeah BN, I erase half of what I type here before I send it away too lol

Anyone get any gift cards? Did you swear at the giver when you got them? I mean what a lazy awful gift.

"I can't bother to get you a gift so instead I'll just force you to shop somewhere that I choose"

Nothing says Christmas like being railroaded into trying to find something in a store when another one has the thing you really want.

Imagine being a moderator.... I have to be nice to those people. :P

It was hard at first, but once you see how much more effective it is to be nice, it gets pretty easy. I'd love to make people laugh by being sarcastic or poking fun at stupid things people say, but I've learned that it isn't really worth it. Some people don't respond well to any kind of authority, but most are understanding and polite when you're understanding and polite to them first.

Of course, I don't always follow this policy.... Nobody's perfect. :?

The hardest thing for me to do is resist making fun of those of you I know a little better. I'm like you, Jason; I like to poke fun at my friends. I feel like if I know someone well enough 1) to know what to make fun of them about and 2) to make fun of them without making them mad whatsoever, then I know he or she is my friend. But as a moderator in these forums, I can't really do that. "Outsiders" will see it as trolling or flaming, and it just won't look good in general. So I have to stay silent much more than I'd like to.

I know exactly what you mean, I've had to do the same thing before

It's like with me you COULD joke like that because I know what you mean by it but then if another person in charge looks at it they wont see it as you talking to me that way, they'll see it as a Mod talking to a user that way. Then you get called to the carpet and have to explain and it just doesn't look great.

This is where I've had my wii since I bought it. 42" Sony HDTV. I just got a 360 (not in picture) and a new TV to put in my room. (Really nice, pictures will be in my blog one day).

But my wii will now be moving upstairs to my room and from now on I'm going to use this setup only for multiplayer! So this is basically the multiplayer arena! lol I'm so corny

That's my basement by the way.

movin_target, we have the same TV!

Sorry about the jaggies. I took this picture with my Wii. *wah wah waaaaaah*

All of last gen is represented there. The Wii is the lonely new console. If you look closely, you can see that the disc slot is frowning, and the power button is crying.

lol nice set up Jordan. soooo many consoles, i just packed away my oldies.Haziqonfire

My XBox is my DVD player (I watch an episode of South Park every day while I eat lunch), my Gamecube is my Game Boy Player (don't use it much), and my PS2 currently has Xenosaga Episode II in it. They all have their uses still.
