Yes, I do hate l337 sp33ch, I stopped typing that way after a week of experimenting with it, when I realised that I myself couldn't read what I just wrote. Then I adopted poor grammer. Then I improved quite a bit. Then I got to where I am now.

also, read the rules. It is of utmost importance that the rules are read and followed. This is not me with a rod up my ass. After seeing a few people banned, you get the fear of Mod knocked into you. Condensed version is this: don't spam and use common sense. Slightly longer condensed version: Don't spam, use common sense, don't post twice in a row and don't talk about religion.

Keep these things in mind and you shall be safe from the Wrath of Mod.

Using l33t every now and agian for a joke or something isn't bad... but when its in every single one of your posts, or every other post... or even just every third post... then it gets annoying.

Oh, and black out spoilers. I HATE it when one of my shows is ruined because some... "mentally challenged" person didn't black out a spoiler. I think everyone agrees with this.

Shiney comes to mind.

But as long as you don't break the rules, immerse him into water or feed him after midnight, he stays cuddly and loveably. ^^ <3 >*~

Forgot to do this at the very beginning, so I guess it's better late than never

Real Name:Steve

Nicknames: none

Age:16

Height:5 ft 10 in.

Weight:about 200

Gender: Yes please! (Wait a minute... DAMNIT!) (Male)

Favorite Games:SSBM, Halo 2, LoZ:OoT (Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time), Eternal Darkness, Tales of Symphonia, Metroid Prime 2, Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars

Favorite 8-Bit Theatre char: :thief: or :bmage:

Sport(s): nah. Football and basketball are fun to watch, though.

Movie(s)?: idk, can't really remember any awesome ones

Book(s)?: Dragonlance series, anything by R.A. Salvatore

Owned Systems: SNES, N64, Gamecube, DS

How I feel about the different systems:
Gamecube - like most of the games a lot, but wish the graphics were better
Xbox - like the specs, but wish there were more awesome games
PS2 - If I were getting a new system, I'd get the Xbox because the PS2 has the worst specs, and many of the good PS2 games come out on the Xbox too
DS vs PSP - The deciding factor that made me get the DS was that my GBA broke, so I am still kinda divided. I figure if you want to play PS2, play it at home. With such a short battery life and with many of the best game developers already working with Nintendo, I'm very unsure if the PSP will be successful. I hope it isn't, because Nintendo needs a break.

Religion - Catholic, kinda

$ Status : not well off, but far from poor

Most anticipated game of 2005: Zelda 2005

Favorite Music: DMB, Green Day, Beatles (That'll confuse em

)

Dark_Shinobi · 02-01-2005, 01:56 PM

Guess I should talk about myself.... hm!

Real Name: Iliuta M. Andrei (Romanian here); just call me Shinobi or Andrew

Nicknames?: None.... who would give me nicknames?

Age:16

Height: 1 m 80

Weight: 100 kg

Gender: Ummm..... what? O yeah. Male

Favorite Games: Oooh, loong loong list. Prince of Persia WW, Warhammer 40K : DoW, LOTR: BFME, AFK, BRB, Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic, Castlevania : Circle of the Moon; played a little Final Fantasy Tactics Advance; Half-Life 2.... duh!

Favorite 8-Bit Theatre char: No doubt about it. Black Mage. Reminds me a lot of myself, sometimes.

Sport(s)?: Uumm..... does DND count as a sport?

Movie(s)?: Woohoo, lots. The Incredibles, Kung Pow, Monty Python and the Holy Grail, LOTR... and many more.

Book(s)?: Tolkien, Terry Pratchett.... DND related books (I'm serious! apart from the rules and the technical mumbo-jumbo, I love the fact that those who wrote it had so much damn imagination, and they put it to great use).

"And last but not least, tell us about yourselves so we dont have to look in your bio to find out! :P :"

*sigh*..... thing I hate the most about myself. I feel awkward when talking about me. I'm a 16-year old Romanian teenager, bent on utter mayhem and world domination. *NOT!*. I am more of a social kind of guy, which is why I joined this forum. Brian, you rock. You really do.

I'll let you form an opinion of yourselves as I get to post more on these forums.

*waves at all the people out there*
