View Full Version : Some more ego boosting...
Osterbaum

To save everyone time I started of our next 'complimenting your self and others' ego boosting thread. You all know what to do. Now do it. :)
I have to say I was surprised that I was mentioned three times. Four if you count compliments to certain groups. Not that I find my self hated or anything, just not that well known.
Anyway I want to start by complimenting some more.
All the mods: You guys are awsome for being able to stand with us and the crap we sometimes give you.
DarhZeth: It's been some time since I've last seen him post, but when he posted in the discussions of the discusion forum, his arguments were always good. I din't always agree, but still.
Viper: The same thing as Zeth. Good posts at the discussion forums, even though I don't always agree.

We so need a microphone and a stage.
"I'd like to thank the mods for the awesome job, IHMN for..."
It'd be funny. Just go with me on this one.

"I'd like to think the academy..."
Although I haven't been around long enough to compliment individual people, overall I've found the forum enviroment welcoming and civil. Kudos to the mods, too.
As for self-complimenting, I like my hedonistic nature.

More prais. I have to praise you like I should.
Ren- As well as having pretty eyes, you have a quick wit, and a good sense of humor.
My sis- You are a funny, strange oppinionated girl, but you make me laugh.
CelesJessa again- You are the best rper I know.
BMH- Despite our current arguments, you are a fun person to play against.
More coming later, as I can think about it.

I'd like to thank a bunch of people
IHMN: You argue about everything and as such have kept RPs in line by making sure no one exceeds there boundaries
Zoamelguster: You delve into great detail about the Arcadia RP and have all the writing skills of the next Tom Clancy
and to everyone else I've RPed and talked with on the forums you've all been great I'll address you individually later but right now I have to eat
Krylo- You're perfect. No, really. I tried to think of a flaw, and I couldn't. Damn you.
JAD- You're OLD. Hahaha. Kidding. Sort of. Um. You're...uh...a nice guy...Damn, I'm not good at ass-kissing.
Brian- What I'd write could potentially get me banned, so I won't say it. Instead I'll just stick with "OMGWTFBBQ U R TEH BEST SPRITE COMIC WRITUR EVARRRR!!!!111"
BMHadoken
07-23-2004, 01:58 PM
*tear*...I wasn't expecting this...
Dammnit, now that people are talking about me I have to talk about people.
Jad-Reads a lot and points out any discrepencies
Celes-Nice, and can take anything we throw at her
IHMN-Its fun to fight him, and be on his side. Plus he'll point out any glaring plot holes
Raiden-Makes some fun RPs, can keep the peace, and is ok with all the teasing
Krylo-Knows his shit, and brought forth fuedal-lord firing samurai-spaceships piloted by ninja pirates
Dante-Because he write good
Saam-Because even after I helped kill Calvinball, he kept me off his Ignore list
KefkaTaran-He introduced me to Tim Rogers, and aint that bad a writa
And all the mods-Just because they put up with all the shit
And I know I've forgotten people, so just complement me and I'll give you one back.

Banned?
I sense Lydia-style jealous murderous rage.
I guess I'll just thank the users who follow the rules and report posts for making life easier on us mods. Nuklear power forums would be nothing without the users, you are the lifeblood of this place, and it's a testament to your loyalty and maddening perseverance that we're still as active as ever.
Thank you all.

To the people of NP, Your great, One of the best comunitys i've joined, and your all nice enough people. Rock on

Zoamelguster: All I can say is damn. This guy has more talent in his left pinky than I could ever hope to contain.
Thaumaturge: Gotta love his vocalness about his plans. What he doesn't know is that I already control the world.
Ranger Aidan: Your not a bad RPer yourself. However, I've never really thought of myself as being that good at it.
IHMN: Had some nice arguments with him in the Battle Thread
Dragonsbane: Also had some interesting times on the Battle Thread
More later perhasp; if get a little sleep.
Anyone else I missed/the mod, admins of the board. This place is slowly taking over my life which now that I think about it is quite scary.

Saam-Because even after I helped kill Calvinball, he kept me off his Ignore list
Hey, I may furiously disagree with someone, but I am not one to hold a grudge... for long.

Hey, I may furiously disagree with someone, but I am not one to hold a grudge.
-heh, hence the only reason I still have friends outside of a couple of people...and on that note, I like the well learned and reasonable political discourse in the Discussion forum.
Mr. Viewtiful
07-23-2004, 03:42 PM
Well, I got a few thanks to give out myself:
Dante: one of the most vesatile guys on the forums. He RPs well, can hold his own in discussions, and can be downright hilarious when he wants to be.
krylo: this guy has to be one of the most knowledgable members I've met on this board. His skull avatar is pretty awesome, as well. (FLOATING SKULL!!!11!)
Ecurt: he hasn't been around as much as he used to be, but he's still a great guy. He's really smart (his mastery of swordchucks physics is unmatched), or at least he likes others to think he is. Also major props to Ecurt for having the best (IMHO) RP: the original Final Fantasy RP.
IHateMakingNames: your wit, sarcasm, and sheer sense of humor know no bounds. To sum it up: you should star in your own TV show, because it'd be downright hilarious.
The mods/admins: you all do some of the best board policing I've ever seen, not to mention you're all great people, too.
All the people who requested card avatars from me: I'd like to thank you all for giving me a temporary hobby. In fact, all of them were also nice enough to give me sincere thanks for them, which really makes the job worth it. The people in this category include BM Hadoken, Raiden, and others, as well. I stopped making them, so don't even ask, buddy.
All the people that gave suggestions for my DJing gig: it really helped. Believe me, it did.
CelesJessa: for being a great artist, expert RPer, and overall-nice person. How you balance band, school, and social life combined with being a daily visitor of these forums amazes me. That, and you gave me a much-needed ego boost:
Mr. Viewtiful- He's fun to talk to. ^^ Although we dont' chat as much as we used to.
I didn't know I was fun to talk to...shows how much I know, eh?
Everyone else: the fact that you're all here is a testament to your awesomeness, all of you. What can I say, you guys have good taste :cool:
Lycanthrope
07-23-2004, 04:11 PM
Krylo: Because we are similarly oppinionated, and he is slightly more articulate.
Dante: Because he is one of the nicest guys on this forum.
RaiRai: Nuklear Power's Poet Laureate.
All of the Mods: for, as Mash put it once, putting up with more crap than anyone without a teaching degree ought to have to.
Celes: One of the most talented people on othe forum. Great RPer and an artist to boot.
Others, but I can't think of any off hand. Sorry if I missed you.
CelesJessa
07-23-2004, 05:05 PM
*sniffle* Oh dear. Now I have to fix my sub-par compliments. (and make more!) This will take awhile...
IHMN- Keeps the RPs in line, except when he gets with Krylo.... heh. Argues a lot, but that's what makes him IHMN.
JADguy- Awesome guy to talk to. He has tons of information that I know nothing about and he's willing to share with me. Althought he took away my ability to go "Nananana" and the WOA.... (I got the WOA back though. (don't ask)
Dante- Awesome. He's very nice and sweet. He's an awesome writer and I keep telling him he should be an author someday but he never listens!
Myst- Awesome Poet. I absolutely love his poems. Fun to talk to and he seems to be the male equivalent of me. (he's in marching band too, and last year in marching band, we both started out at pretty much the exact same place on the feild. Also, we seem to have the same kind of problems. heheh)
Krylo- Always gives me a reason to use my "Disturbed Seymour face". And thinks he's making me less innocent. Yeah right. Heheh. Really, he's fun to talk to, and is the only person here to call me grumpy (that I can think of).... hahah. Also, get your mind out of the gutter. It seems to have found a perminant spot there. ^_^ Also is the one ot make me aware to my overuse of "^_^" I have cut down a bit since then... a bit.
SuperSaiyan- Fun to talk to, although he likes to poke me to death. When he gets out of hand all I have to do is whip out a picture of Man Faye. But SS is a great guy. ^_^ Just don't ever mention.... uh.... something I'm not supposed to mention concerning an RP... to him. (you know what it is SS)
Raiden- The only person on the forums I've talked to through e-mail. He's gotten a bad rap through RPs we've been in and he takes it well. He's fun to talk to and always has something interesting to say. We've got to play Gunbound sometime though, since I've got it all up-to-date with updates.
Demon With a Glass Hand (again)- He's like my big brother. I can always count on him to give me "+10 in happiness points." To the max! ...With style! (inside joke)
Forever Zero- Although I don't see him around the much, he's fun to talk to, although I think I frighten him sometimes when I get hyper. It's fun to "see" him laugh in the chats and such.
BMHadoken- Always has a interesting character in RPs. He keeps the RPs in order too. Like the third person to the tag team that is Krylo and IHMN. heheh.
Mr. Viewtiful- That's right, you're fun to talk to. So talk to me more when you're on AIM darn it. heheh. Seriously, he's a great guy.
Lycanthrope- Even though his name means he's a wearwolf, he's a nice guy. He always has something nice to say if he sees my artwork. And he ran the pirate RP back when I was being obsessed with Pirates of the Caribbean. You rock.
SAAM- For some reason I love his avatar. I always notice him in the forums and always has something to say worth reading. ^^ Although he's beaten me on the post counts... heh.
Ecurt- isn't around as much, but ran some fun RPs. And made a omake thread that all of us RPers loved.
All other girl gamers here- You guys rock. I know how annoying it can be at times. Such as when you go to gaming stores and the clerk asks you if the game is for your boyfriend. How annoying, huh? So keep at it. ^^
Everyone else I didn't mention- You guys rock too. This just wouldn't be Nuklear Power without all of you guys.
Whew... I think I got everyone. (well, not EVERYONE... since 3,000+ compliments would just be overdoing it.)
Krylo
07-23-2004, 05:22 PM
I don't know how I missed this thread up until now (now being, now, last night, about 10 posts before it closed), but I do know that now that I've been mentioned by a few people (as I should be), I feel a bit like an ass for NOT noticing it and not mentioning people myself. So, I'm right now racking my brain to think of people other than the obvious ones.
So, let us begin the spreading of sunshine, rainbows, lollipops, and various other articles of goodness.
Me: Well, this thread IS supposed to be mostly about ourselves, is it not? Anyway, I would like to list 'everything' as what I like about myself. Or, if that doesn't count as one thing in particular, I should like to replace 'everything' with my egomania. It gives me the comfortable air of superiority that I so rightly deserve.
Dante:Nearly as perverted as I... in a GOOD way, a master of the english language--despite it not being your first one, and funny as well. What isn't there to like?
Lazy Man: For such a lazy bastard (and I mean that in the most loving way possible), you're still one of the better conversationalists and roleplayers around here.
DemonWithAGlassHand: Everything you said about me, right back at you. You also have the kind of flamboyant wit and writing style that just makes everything you write entertaining and, usually, amusing... no matter the content. I have a sneaking suspicion that you could turn a funeral into a tongue in cheek comedy, if allowed to give the eulogy.
Celes: You are the most forgiving person I know, and that makes you really easy to take advantage of... which I like. Seriously though: Like everyone else has said, you have a good heart... and you also have a damned good sense of humor. I don't know that most people see it because you tend to not show it too much on the forums, but we know. Oh yes, we know.
IHMN: Most of the time you're right, and when you aren't, at least you argue sensibly enough that it doesn't QUITE feel like smashing my head against a brick wall. Beyond that you're frank and honest... even if I do get the feeling you enjoy being frank a bit more than necessary, but then again, so do I. You're also one funny pervert.
Atronflame: Were I female, I'd ask if I could have your babies. 'Nuff said.
SithDarth: One of the more intelligent folks about here, and definately interesting to have in any discussion about physics, which seems to be your strong suit.
Ranger: Because you're a sexy bitch. You're also just a fun guy to have in any thread, with the ability to generally make me grin at your zany antics... or perhaps it's just your approach with writing. Zany antics... writing... close enough.
Croteam6: Because your self-appreciating humor nearly rivals my own, and yet, unlike me, you seem to understand when a bit of seriousness...ess...ness?
Let me try that again: You seem to understand when it's time to be serious, as well.
Darth Zeth: I haven't seen you around for awhile, but that's alright. You're still my summonable stat spewer. You're able to keep track of all those numbers I should be keeping track of for re-occuring discussions (like gun laws), yet I don't. Without you I'd actually have to use google to back myself up, instead of just invoking your name.
Osterbaum: Not so much a real compliment, because it'd just be something generic like "You're cool, and kinda funny," as that I don't know you THAT well. I just feel like pointing out that you are interesting enough to be noticed by the greatness that is I, seeming as you seem to think that you aren't noticed.
Ren: Too much to write here, if I were to list all the things I like about you, so I'll just do like you and go with the perfect bit. Man, that's so much easier than trying to make a comprehensive list.
BMHadoken: You're a good RPer, and you've got a pleasantly quirky sense of humor.
Mr. V and Ecurt: I'm just going to say "FFRP," and leave it at that. You two are cool as hell. ]I didn't QUITE leave it at that, did I?
Mod Squad As a Whole: For making sure that this remains the only forum, that I've found, which is still fun while managing to not have people posting things so stupid that they hurt my brain... at least not very often.
Fuitad/Pierre: Because you make this place run smoothly, and do all the work on the software and hardware that allows us to have all the fun.
Kurosen: Is it even necessary to mention that you're the guy who brings the funny? Nah. Instead I'll just mention that, from what I've seen, you also seem to be extremely intelligent and very level headed, and I've yet to see you get bent out of shape over anything. All excellent traits.
ViperDaimao: Because every forum needs a ninja death god.
RaiRai: Exactly what everyone else has said. You write beautiful poetry, and really ARE great at expressing yourself. You're also a nice piece of eye candy, or, stated less sleaze-bagish (read: Krylo-ish), you're also beautiful.
Shiney: You are the spam-slayer, even if you have been slacking a bit lately and...
Mashirosen: has been dealing with the spam these days, with the deadly precision of a CIA Ghost, trained to terminated spammers, trolls, and other idiots with extreme prejudice. Not to mention that she's also got the brains to match (or exceed, perhaps?) Brian's, whom I've already complemented thusly.
DI: You have the uncanny ability to point out exactly what needs to be said in under a paragraph. You can say what would take me a full page in three sentences. It boggles me.
Kieru: For making the site look pretty. These are also the most visually appealing forums I've seen.
I think I probably forgot some people that I REALLY should have mentioned, but my mind isn't quite what it's used to... and I did half this list at about 2 am, and the other half right after an eight hour work day. If you didn't make the list, it's nothing personal, just my brain skipping people. Probably people I like just as much as those ones up there.
Mr. Viewtiful
07-23-2004, 05:24 PM
Ecurt- isn't around as much, but ran some fun RPs. And made a omake thread that all of us RPers loved.
Don't forget that that omake thread inspired my creation of the* greatest RP character ever: THUMPMAN!!!
Which reminds me...I forgot to complement myself...
One of my greatest skills in life is the ability to make nearly anyone loosen up, whether by making them laugh, or just to become more talkative. Because of this (and my benevolent nature), I'm seen as nearly everyone's friend, which is pretty nice.
*well, he's my favorite :D

I don't know anyone here well enough to give individual compliments, but this has seriously been one of the best forums I've joined. Everyone here is generally very intelligent and friendly. It's rare to find that, especially in a place with so many members, so y'all rock on.
Demon with a Glass Hand
07-23-2004, 07:57 PM
And the compliments continue!
Celes Jessa: It's true people. I'm her guardian. So if I hear that anyone is getting out of line with her, they'll have to deal with my wrath! With style! If ever there was a girl that was too good to be true, it would be Celes. She's funny, cute, amusingly dense on occasion, a gamer, she games, she roleplays, and games. She's a gamer. She likes muffins. Yep, every gamer's dream girl is Celes Jessa!
Ranger Aidan: One of the first people ever to request a custom Card Clash Avatar from me. He's a hunk, and has a cute girlfriend. Very fresh breath, people. No one has fresher breath. It's minty!
Mr. Veiwtiful: Unbeknownst to him, he is my rival. If ever we were to clash our L33T Card Clash Avatar skillz against eachother, it would be the fight of the century! Like Luke vs Darth, or Goku vs Freeza. Yes, it would be that big!
IHMN: Everyone loves pigtails, right? IHMN does pigtails like no-one else. He makes them look manly. Very chic!
Dante: His writing skills rival that of mine ... maybe. He could best me, I should think. He's also such a good guy that, after thrashing me into a bloody pulp, he would probably fix me up real good. He's a medic, don'tcha know?
Krylo: If I were a girl, I would find some way to have his children without Ren killing me. Yes, girls, he's that worth it!
Ren: You offered to share Krylo with me once. In the same bed. As you. ... and Krylo. I'll take you up on that offer one day ...
Rai Rai: Actually I have nothing to say that hasn't been said already ... You thanked me for making you a custom Card Clash Avatar. That was nice of you. You are very welcome, by the way.
Shiney: You didn't do nasty things to me when I did something nice for your fiance behind your back ... That was nice. I really appreciated that.
Mr.Clevinger: You gave me some of the best advice anyone has given me. In the same day. Via e-mail. A lot faster than most of my friends do ...
Updates to this later as I think of people I haven't actually complimented yet that I probably should ...

07-23-2004, 08:54 PM
Let's see what I like about myself. Everything! Wouldn't change a thing. In fact I love me. I'd marry myself if it was legal in this state! :D j/k...maybe lol
Really though what I like about myself the most is my carefree natural. I don't let anything get to me or anyone for that matter. I also like that I'm fairly intelligent and I like my unusual sense of humor and the crazy things I do in life.
As for ppl here I can honestly say there is no one here I dislike. You're all great. I found a lot of interesting and eye opening discussions here and I'm glad with the openess and freedom of opinions. I believe this forum is filled with a lot of intelligent and interesting people. I have a lot of respect for everyone here. :)
Zweihander
07-23-2004, 09:15 PM
I like that I'm easily forgetable. Its helped me out of a few tricky spots. But enough about me.
The mods are truly to be appreciated. Only the order that iron-fisted-ness brings can lead to a decent foruming environ.
Everyone else - I echo previous sentiments. Also, most of you can spell and type correctly. Congratulations. That's about as close to an original compliment that hasn't been said already in this thread(s).
So, in closing: borf.
Otaku Son
07-23-2004, 11:26 PM
Otaku: became an admin recently. Yes...recently. Congratulations on being the first to notice. I wasn't the only promotion, though!Yep, I saw Lydia became admin., too(ask CelesJessa; I was discussing it with her via AIM last nigt).
RangerAidan: You're cool because you have an awesome room setup(as seen from one of the picture threads).
Sithdarth: Oh, yeah, the local scientist. That's your good quality.
Osterbaum: Your avatars are cool. The guy with the knife and pistol, and now some guy playing with toy dinosaurs.
????: Your name slips me, but you're the person who has me in your signature as somone who'll rue the day I crossed you.
Jack of Spades/Whatever his new handle is: Your new handle is what makes you cool. Why? Because you have "Not to rip off Otaku Son or anything" in the signature.
(Off-topic, just wanted it to be known Meatloaff didn't sign up with those funky characters (http://forum.nuklearpower.com/showthread.php?t=4503), since his thread was locked.)
Osterbaum
07-24-2004, 06:41 AM
Krylo: I must say that your posts certainly never go with out me noticing them. That and you are a real pervert...
Otaku Son: I keep repeating the same compliment with many people, but when it is how it is you must say it again. Your posts are good. Once again I don't always agree, but they are good nevertheless.
SAAM(again): I forgott to say that you are great also cause you like Monty Python 'Upper class twit of the year'.
Thaumaturge
07-26-2004, 08:15 AM
You have to love the sheer level of... uniqueness on this forum. Perhaps the, er, most notable examples of this are Otaku and Krylo, but just about everyone here is unique in some way, and often to a high degree. You've got to love these people. :)
Oh, and IHMN has to be the best user name that I've come across, followed up by SAAM. On the topic of names, where is your name from, Zoamelgustar? It sounds vaguely like the name of some Mayan deity...
I like the fact I am able to sublimate my lack of talent with analytical reproduction of techniques people with talent use while writing and drawing. ... (I am probably the only person that uses scientific like rules for writing and drawing fictional things.)
Actually, that's a very strong talent.
The fusion of science and art (the latter of which must be present, given the creativity in your work) is the most powerful combination of disciplines known to man. Art provides the raw elements and passion, while science tempers and shapes the results beyond the capabilities of art alone.
What he doesn't know is that I already control the world.
Ah, but once I control the Things of the Netherworld, none shall stop me! Not even you, SithDarth! Hey, what's that? Let go! Off! Off I say!! Remove that tentacle! Aargh!!! Excuse me, I'll just be a moment...
Well,I dont really know much people that well on this site, so ill just say all yous guys are a spiffy bunch of guys and gals. And Id like to thank the moderators for keeping the peace. Oh, and one last thing.....
NIB HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL RULES!
The Mirror Emperor
07-26-2004, 10:31 PM
I don't know who to thank. Pretty much anyone that's been nice to me I'd like to thank, especially SAAM for helping me out with that I flip wilson thing. And thanks to the mods for their work against trolls. And thanks to Brian for the coolest comic on the internet!
God, I sound like I've won an Oscar or something.

07-27-2004, 06:46 AM
