random appreciation

[Funka Genocide]

I am opening a thread wich I have not fully thought out. I don't want to make anyone upset. My only defense (and a flimsy one at that) is that I am drunk right now.

The purpose of this thread is to show my appreciation to the wonderful people I have met in my time here on these forums.

to start, and in no particular order:

RaiRai: Your poetry is beautiful in the way a rose bud is, it places no effort in its beauty, it simply is what it is, an expression of the devine given physical shape by the will of powers beyond my comprehension, You were the reason I signed on to this forum in the first place, and I thank you.

SAAM: your humor and wit are incredible, i always find myself laughing at most of your posts, and the original Calvin Ball threads were a major reason I enjoyed my early days on this forums.


My Arcadia buddies: Sith, Zwei, Lycanth, Myst, Foamy and h4x, you guys are a great bunch of rp'ers and I wish I could meet you all in person, I really appreciate your dedication to my rp setting, and your ability to keep believing in me even after i let you down. You help me to continue to believe in the human race, and your dedication helps me realize a world wich I plan to set many stories in. I thank you from the bottom of my heart.

Queen Qeeko: Your artistry is beyond beautiful, it is something I look forwqrd to everyday, always hoping to catch a glimpse of your newest creation. Your iages help me to continue on this long journey we call life. I thank you most sincerely.

and to the many others I'v met and will meet in the future on my time here, I love you all and hope to see many great things from you all!

Now tat I have said my piece I hope it will be taken happily, I don't want to upset anyone. I really appreciate the job the mods do in taking care of these forums, and I mean that! I think every last one of them must have some kind of superhuman willpower reserve, I don't think I could do the job they do while still holding down my 9 to 5, you all deserve the highest praise, and again I thank you for making this the one of the greatest places I've ever "been".

that being said, I really can't say how they will take this. if they deem it spam, so be it. They do their jobs so well and with such fairness that I could never complain, I only hope that if hey close this immediately that they know the depths of my gratitude.

thanks to everyone, and I love you all.

Funka G,

to Krylo and Mr. Wind Up Bird: whenever i see either of you shooting down someone's dreams, or pointing out how fucking dumb they are, it gives me a warm feeling in my black as coal heart.

Or just a huge fucking ego and an addiction to power? I mean, I know that's how I do it...

Also, this is most certainly not spam. D. Wrecks made an example of the reason for this already: More people making lists like that, some of which include me. Ahh... wonderful wonderful ego stroking. How I love it.

Speaking of which...

Awww... thanks. I just do what I can... and sometimes get frustrated... because no one has invented a way to stab people over the internet yet.

Johnny Socko: you've been around as longer than I have, and every thing I've ever read posted by you seems to bring a smile to my face. Thanks for being so funny man, even if you claim to have a black heart!



Krylo: You are one of the most intelligent and witty individuals I've "met" in my life, I hope you get yourself back together sooner rather than later, I know how it can feel to have relationships fall apart, and while I'm not suggesting that I know exactly how you feel, I just want you to know that I understand, in my own way. You're a great guy and I'm sure you'll find happiness eventually. Life is a path, not a destination, a point I'm sure you're familiar with.

Thanks, and I'm pretty well together. The title and signature are symbolic of a decision I made shortly after the break up, not because I'm still some uber-depressed half-suicidal nutjob (like I was for about a week).

And, I guess, now that I have a little more time than 15 minutes for lunch (half-hour minus travelling time back and forth), I should probably make one of my own little list of people and why I appreciate having them around, or something.

IHMN--You're blunt, and you get to the point. This is an invaluable ability and something that makes you pretty useful in a lot of arguement situations. There's more than once that I've been happy to have you around to state what would have taken me three paragraphs in about one sentence (possibly with a few 'idiot's thrown in for good measure).

FZ--I don't know if you'll ever even see this, but I'm going down the member list by post count and you're next. Anyway: You've had some of the best RPs, and some of the best RP characters. When I was starting out in the RP section you'd be one of the people I'd check for in the sign-ups to see if it was worth my time to even bother.

Dante/Dan'thulu--Every time you're sick little perverted heart has something to say, it makes mine cheery. Who else can I collaborate as well with on tentacle rape, bestiality, and bondage...? Well, other than IHMN.

DB--I never really noticed you until recently, but you've managed to make yourself known (to me, at least... and let's face it, that's all that REALLY matters) as one of the more intelligent posters, even if we tend to move in different circles. I've yet to see a post I haven't liked.

JAD/Squishy--You're a bastard. No. Seriously. You are. You also run some good roleplays, though... and I SUPPOSE you can be counted on when people need you... or something. Bastard. No. I'm not kidding. You're highlighting this expecting me to be like "Just kidding! Haha! Got ya!" HAH! Trick's on you! I'll never admit that I was kidding! Even if I was!

SAAM--There are few people who can make me laugh with a comic drawn entirely of stick figures. You're one of those people. Congratulations! Speaking of which: which triforce of terror member was I? Right or the left? I'm thinking left, but I'm not sure. I'm also guessing CroTeam was the one with the hat.

Celes--You're actually a lot more funny and liberated than you let on, and you always let me have my silly (if slightly mean) little tirades. You're one of the nicest people I know. In fact, the only possible fault I could ever find is that you might be too nice. That and you won't let me ravage you. Viciously.

BobTheMercenary--Despite the fact that we don't see eye to eye on most political issues, I'll be the first to admit that you have some of the best and most well thought out posts. Not as good as say, MINE, of course, but still good. You also have a BoaSaS avatar. This makes you a god amongst these petty mortals... and from the first comic, one of my favorites.

LazyMan--I'd write something about you, but I'm too lazy.

KefkaTaran--If I've ever loved a person platonically over the internet, it'd be you. We don't see eye to eye on everything, but your mind is brilliant and open. You think about things in a light that is rarely seen, and you're one of the few people that can actually challenge me mentally. Not only that, but you're a damn good writer.

Zoam--Your posts are almost always (I'd say always, but I hate definitives) intelligent, rational, and well thought out. Or at least entertaining and capable of stroking my ego. Either way, they're all good. You can even make pretty good threads when you're drunk... and with good spelling and grammar too! You're also pretty humble about the fact, which is a nice change of pace after dealing with my own arrogance all day.

And I'm tired of typing, plus I don't want to have to split this into two posts (or do Shiney), so I'm stopping there.

I'm touched. There may be hope for my fading inspiration yet!

I appreciate users who abide by the rules. For they make my life a lot easier and they also don't make Shiney into a MONSSAH, unlike spammers and trolls. Damn you people.

[Gorefiend]

I appreciate all the mods here for keeping the forums in a nice balance. There are no excesses on behalf of any users, and for a "non professional" board, it looks pretty neat. Scratch that, very neat. But, the mods aren't horrible feared people we all hate for suppressing our voices every chance they get. They have a sense of humor and allow jokes through (except in the discussion forum). They also tend to post good material, like krylo's notes in the "books vs. games", my "Discrimination Against Gamers" and his own "GTA, senseless violence or something more" threads.

[adamark]

Hahaha. Always a fan of drunken "I love you mannnn" posts. I tip my Russian hat to you.

[Funka Genocide]

if I had a russian hat (which I must say is quite the bees knees!) I would tip mine as well Adamark. As it stands I will merely salute stoicly.

I'm a bit embarassed by my profession of drunkenness, after reading through this thing sober, I could have so gotten away with acting as if I weren't. Damn my honesty!

in any case, here is a poem I wrote in dedication to all the forum members here,

Smatterings of Genius

Why thank you Krylo... I think... Well. At least for everything except for the last sentance or two. And yes folks, I'm funny AND liberated, you heard it from Krylo himself. Heh...

I supposed I could write some nice things now too.... Hmm... In random order!

Jad - You're a nice guy, and has always been my "protector" in chat and such, and you're fun to chat with. Also, if I ever need advice of surviving through hurricanes, I'll come to you. heheh.

Krylo - You're a dirty dirty man. Other than that, you are actually fun to chat with, even though you frighten me. Also, you're funny and I can usually ask you about anything, especially if I want a honost answer.

IHMN - Krylo speaks the truth. You are very honost, and while other people may find that annoying, it is kind of refreshing to have some people who won't sugar-coat it, especially if it's at a time I want to say something, but I don't then either you or Krylo say something, (or you point something out that keeps me in line with RPing.) And you can be pretty funny too.

Cloud Strife - You're always fun to talk to, and I value your values... (heh. does that make sense?) and you don't mind when I mindlessly blather on.

Dante - (yes yes, I'm going back to the names before we all went crazy and changed) Yes we've had... misunderstandings, but you're still my friend, crazy and silly as you may be.

Thaum - You're an excellent sport, especially after letting me poke my fan at you in my comics. ^^

Master Of Magic - I always appreciate your comments on my artwork and your general positive attitude about things. ^^

Mirror Emperor - A very good friend of mine. Always there to hug me and lighten my mood. ^^

Demon With a Glass Hand - I don't talk to him as much as I used to, but he was always a good source for a good laugh. He's very selfless too and a really good voice actor. ^^

Raiden - always fun to "say hello to." (raiden should get it). And he's a good writer and it's fun to recive e-mails from him.

Other RPers - (I may go into detail later) I've always loved RPing with you guys. More than once I've found myself laughing outloud at stuff that's happened in the RP forums, embarrassing to me or not.

I may add on more later, but I'm tired now.
