Title: New/Returning Member Thread
Post by: cephalopod on April 09, 2010, 12:27:20 PM
We seem to have a lot of threads popping up saying hi, I thought it'd be an idea to have just 1 general thread, so if anyone wants to introduce themselves, this thread could be the place to do it :D

Just to start things off, my friend Martymidget has signed up, I've taught him a bit about stock already over the last month or 2. Dunno if he'll post (scaredy cat  :p ), but yeah, that's him introduced :P

You're not friends with your girlfriend? Is your relationship purely sexual?
Title: Re: New/Returning Member Thread

@Jonzu: I wouldn't announce that to a public place that your friend now knows about. He could use it against you.

I'm a little lost on the "being 14" point. Kids can date at 14.

I think that hes saying that being 14, he shouldnt be obsessed with a CARTOON CHARACTER.

Obsessing over a cartoon character seems a bit strange to me at any age, but who am I to judge? What's the difference between idolizing a cartoon and idolizing a celebrity, anyway? People rarely get sh** for declaring their interest in a particular celebrity, but if anyone has a cartoon fetish, they're thought of as weirdos. Who cares? We are completely unaffected by who Jonzu wishes to fantasize about.

Wrong.
 
Reier actually thinks anyone at 14 to 16 can't have a boyfriend or girlfriend.
Title: Re: New/Returning Member Thread
Post by: powerrave on April 10, 2010, 05:26:05 PM
i really wonder why he thinks that. i think that people at any age can have a boyfriend or girlfriend.

Perhaps it's just more of him not questioning the rules his parents have set for him.

Hey, if a guy in Japan can get married to his Nintendo DS girlfriend, then Jonzu can have an anime girlfriend as well. I really don't care, and personally I don't think any of you should either.

One of my friends was in a relationship for 3 years, starting at age 13. I think it's a little too young, but 15 is a perfectly acceptable age to be dating. Mature 14-year-olds as well.

umm... what ?

either your friends dont know what that is and are just making up stories or umm yeah..... worrying.... whats the age over there when you dont require parent consent ?

Post by: HurricaneAndrew on April 11, 2010, 02:13:32 AM
It's sad to say, but Sparkey is right... The age which teenagers/children become sexually active is dropping by the minute here in the US. I graduated from high school with a girl whose been sexually active since she was 12. Needless to say she already had a child before graduating.

Sickening...

I've been with my girlfriend for just over 2 years (in fact, 2 weeks over 2 years) and I'm 16, so I dunno. We're happy (at the moment :P). It all depends on the circumstances

not only in the US. here in the netherlands i sometimes also here younger kids talking like they have done it about 3 times. just what the heck.
i don't know for how far this is true tho, but... where are the parents? don't they know about this?

at some points you could say that the quality of the overall parenting is dropping.

Hello, I'm back. Has anything significant happen while I was away? I've noticed that a bot exchange is up, and the homepage is radically different, anything else? My computer died with all of my RA2 stuff, so all my my bots and everything in gone. Oh one more thing, did anyone notice I was gone?
Title: Re: New/Returning Member Thread
Post by: G.K. on April 25, 2010, 02:20:57 AM
Hi Dex. Good to see you back.

I'm sorry to tell you that you missed BBEANS 6.

I did notice you coming on once a couple of months ago, and I did notice your abscense too.
Title: Re: New/Returning Member Thread

Post by: Badnik96 on April 25, 2010, 06:58:17 AM
Right after I posted your bot in the "guess that bot" thread. And that Fantasy Battlebots thing I did (and you signed up for) died like a year ago.

Post by: Jack Daniels on April 25, 2010, 11:41:38 AM
Dex! Welcome back. As GK said, the biggest thing you missed was signups/registration for BBEANS. (which filled up crazy fast for a 64 bot tourney)

NarAI is still being tweaked and such.  Backlash is still being worked on.  Clash Cubes turned into a "bawwwww!" fest and Joe nearly went postal as a result.

Good to have you back! Are you going to re-install RA2 and get back to business?

Is that parenting is getting worse, or is it that we're just talking about this issue more? Back in the '50s, there were an awful lot of young girls who "went to visit their aunt" for 9 months.

Whenever I get a computer to install it on. Jeez, this is the second time I lost everything in a computer crash.
Has anyone heard from Harsca, Rudakia13 or anyone else that disappeared over the course of time? Is their gonna be more BBEANS? What tournaments have I missed? Is the new DSL still coming? Is the Re-stocked AI pack by Inifiniteinertia released yet? Did anyone miss me?
One more thing I have to say, I'm suprised that this community is still alive and kicking. In fact its grown ever since I was lurking about when the BBEANS 1 tournament was having trouble to fill up all the slots.

Cherry Flavored, Ham, Mr Weedy, and toAst all came back for a day or two but left again. Haven't heard of Harcsa, I forgot if Ruddude showed up. Maybe he did, anyway he's gone.
You might want to consider Mozy or getting an external hard drive or something....

Are there gonna be more BBEANS?

I think so, CB said he had a few ideas for BBEANS 7, like realistic stock, DSL 3.0, or DSL BW/AWs.

What tournaments have I missed?
https://gametechmods.com/forums/index.php?topic=1778.0 (https://gametechmods.com/forums/index.php?topic=1778.0)

Is the new DSL still coming?
CB is busy with BBEANS, but he said it's coming along. He's pretty much doing it solo though.

Is the Re-stocked AI pack by Inifiniteinertia released yet?
Yes, but it has a few bugs.

Did anyone miss me?
heheheh
Title: Re: New/Returning Member Thread
Post by: Sage on April 25, 2010, 05:50:06 PM
BBEANS 6 signups just ended :3

Restocked was pretty much released, yes, but there still some things to fix up once Inf gets back. Harsca and rudakai are gone.

I bet some of us vets missed you. It's fun to have you around. But I am sure that others might not have missed you though. I think Inifinite was on your case a lot back in the day. Can't remember if anyone else was always on your case.  We have a lot of new members these days, most of them probably have never heard of you.  I certainly do not miss your old Charlie Chaplin avatar.  For some reason it kinda bugged me out.  It was weirdly mesmerizing.
