| I'm just gonna list a few of my 'main' characters. I have around 20, though at least half of them are relegated to minor RP roles and nothing more.
Jake: I liked the idea of a swordsman/mage character, and I combined that with my own abilities. This is where the skill with staffs came from, as well as the low physical strength, low speed, and high evasion. Then, to make up for the low physical stats, I gave him high magic abilities. As for appearance, I was originally going for a Red Mage-like look, which has gradually gotten darker; most of the time that I use him now, he's wearing a black cloak. Tianna/Lora: Both appeared in a dream. I don't remember many of the details, though. They're my two half-sister characters, yet they're completely different; Tianna's a shadow-elemental High Mage, while Lora's a light-elemental Dragon Knight. There are other differences, so many that the only similarity is appearance... Zenelly: From my first FFTA game. A Mog Knight named Zenelly joined my clan, and was one of the characters I brought into every battle. Slowly, I built a good character around him. He's one of my characters that, like Tianna and Jake, have been constantly changing. Appearance-wise, I changed little from the FFTA Mog Knight. Seeing one of Gywall's characters that was annoyingly similar was the main inspiration behind improving Z. Ceru: Felt like making a Blue Mage. Wasn't feeling particularly creative, so I took the first four letters from cerulean (a shade of blue-green, IIRC) for his name; later, I decided that his whole family would wind up like that, alive or dead they'd be named after colors (Viridia, an elementalist, and Ruby, a Red Mage). Recently, I've changed his background a bit so he was previously a Holy Knight of Nirimar, one rank above Zenelly. As for appearance... I was playing FFV, and had Galuf as a Blue Mage. Figure it out from there.  Quest of the Star Sword was my inspiration to improve Ceru; there weren't enough older people to make up for Jake and Tianna, so I adjusted his abilities and backstory so he'd fit in.
Eliana: One of the characters I frequently use in the RPs of others, Eliana was largely inspired by Ceru. In the original Z Files, I had it planned that Ceru would be elsewhere, but since someone that joined was using a blue mage character, I wanted to add one of my own. And so, Eliana was born. She's also a thief, since the Simbattle Board didn't have many at the time (and I think I had the only other one), so instead of using a saber like Ceru, she uses rapiers and shortswords. I'd say more, but I'm gonna stop now before I make you all fall asleep from boredom. (Last edited by Tamarin Calanis on 04-07-05 03:29 PM) |

| Well, I figure there's no harm saying it when the download link isn't even displayed publicly (though, if you want it, I can find it for you)...
I play on twilightRO, and my characters... Zenelly, L70 Sword-and-Shield Crusader Thalis, LSomething (30-40, I think) Merchant (Goal: Non-combat Blacksmith) Cheveyo, L3X Thief (Goal: Dagger Rogue) Tamarin, L44 Swordsman (Goal: 2-Hand Sword Knight) --- Lora Werngraf, L48 Swordsman (Goal: Spear Crusader) Tianna Orine, L1X Mage (Goal: Fire/Ice Wizard) ... yes, I have a female account. If you want to use all the character classes, you'd have to have one.  |

| Yeah, you can. Some people have figured out how to do it all in one folder, but it's safer and easier to use more than one folder.
Also: Whoops, Thalis is only level 18. |

Originally posted by DarkKnightGo through a few weeks unable to do anything on your own. Not even able to feed yourself. Then imagine having to go through that for the rest of your life.

It also serves to explain my feeling about the matter, actually.
Jin, I do wish you'd stop mentioning the war in Iraq. I don't agree with the war either, but the war in Iraq has absolutely NO fucking relevance to the topic at hand.  |

| Well, the helicopter crash in Afghanistan recently? Mom got worried that Dad was on it. After all, it crashed near where he was stationed. I was sitting in the living room, playing Baldur's Gate: Dark Alliance 2 on my small TV when mom just started crying. This made me think 'wait a second, no one even said he was involved,' so I got up, gave her a hug to try to get her to calm down, and went back to playing my game.
Ah, and don't worry, he was fine. We found out later that day. A year or so ago, there was a tornado near where we lived. Mom was running around panicking, dad was even more irritable than normal, and we didn't live with grandma at the time. Me? I was calm; I packed a bag, grabbed my gameboy, had my shoes on, and was out the door in ~5 minutes - not scared, just quick. 3 years ago, at school, we were told a tornado touched down nearby, and we were all rushed to the basement. I sat down with my legs crossed and my forehead to the ground (we were told to keep our heads down, after all), thinking about what I'd do when I got home. On the way back in, the only thing keeping me from being completely calm was the fact I was soaked from the rain. So here's the thing. I remain calm when bad things happen (tornadoes, hurricanes, death), yet I get irritated/angry/upset over stupid shit (difficulty in videogames, for example). Is this unusual? Is it something to be concerned about? I doubt it's that bad, but... (Last edited by Tamarin Calanis on 04-07-05 10:48 PM) |

| Since there was no "Meh" option, I picked "Kind of..."; seemed closest to me.
It could use some work. But, in time it'll get better. And, the normal users could band together to take down Xeo! |

It's "pea" shooter.
I've always sucked at the Megaman games, and at the Megaman X games. I still enjoy them, especially the X series. But I suck at them. |

| Sorry, can't have mine either. Eating souls is generally considered an evil act, and I try to remain neutral - this means not doing or contributing to great good or great evil. Sucks to be you.
Welcome, and tell me - what's with the barf references lately? Lore's thread title, your name... what gives? |

| If by 'win', you mean 'need to stop being an asshole', then yes. You're right. I'm not an admin anymore, but I'm sure that I'm not the only one that feels that you both need to cool it before this turns into a shitload of personal attacks.
I honestly don't care if the moon landing was fake. It doesn't have any impact on my life either way, so I see no point in thinking about it. |

| I'm gonna state my opinions here, as well as clarify a misconception or two. And yes, I WILL be using caps here. See, I already did. After all, if you don't have people on each side of the discussion, it's not nearly as interesting.
1. The PSP uses it's own format - IT CAN'T PLAY DVDs! Yes, there will be movies it can play. But it cannot play DVDs. 2. So fucking what if the graphics are better? If you're that much of a graphics whore that you'd pay another $100 for beter graphics, save your money and buy an Xbox. Or a PC, for that matter - that may cost more, but you'll get more use out of it. 3. On the subject of movies and music. You buy a handheld VIDEO GAME SYSTEM to play... movies? No, no, no. You buy a handheld VIDEO GAME SYSTEM to play VIDEO GAMES. Unless you live in some twisted little world where yes means no and up is down. Moonside from Earthbound, for example. 4. Battery life. As if the $250 price tag (last I checked) wasn't enough of an insult, you'll be changing batteries probably twice a week, if you use this thing much. Now, assuming it takes 2 AA batteries, and you buy them in packs of 6 (as I do for my GBA usually), you'll go through 2-3 packs of batteries per month. At a rate of $1.50 for batteries - this was for a cheap, generic pack, nothing good - that's... *opens Calculator* huh, $52 yearly, if I did my math right (that CAN'T be right... must've fucked up my formula). It's going to be more expensive usually, but I used the cheapest batteries around. Go ahead and refute each of my arguments, if you want to. I'd love to see your response, honestly. |

| Fine, then.
Even if it DOES use a battery pack, it would have to be recharged too frequently. Not cool when you're on a road trip. |

| This is like arguing with a Final Fantasy fanboy. =/
1. Battery Life: BUY A WALL AND CAR PLUG!! You never have to worry about battery packs again... My Retort: PORTABLE SYSTEMS SHOULDN'T HAVE TO BE PLUGGED INTO ANYTHING! THAT'S WHY THEY CAN USE BATTERIES! 2. True it uses its own formats, but people make devices that can easily copy said games, and im sure someone, somewhere, sometime will have the exact discs Sony uses. My Retort: I'm sure that you have no fucking clue what you're talking about. To clarify, and to make sure this doesn't look like a personal attack, this probably won't happen anytime soon. How do you propose you copy the games? I'm doubting that any old PC can do that. Besides, this desends into the realm of illegality. My comment on the disc format was not a complaint, btw. Nice job on COMPLETELY misunderstanding it. 3. Graphics: You call me a graphic whore? I only own 1 hand held, the original gameboy. Anything with more then 15 pixels in each character is awsome to me. My Reply: When you use graphics as one of your main reasons to buy a system, then yes I will call you a graphics whore. 4. i already own X-Box and PS2 Reply: So do I. I also have a Gamecube. 5. i get my computers free, and they play what i want to play. besides, can you afford a laptop? can i afford a laptop on my pay check? no, and the PSP is alot smaller and much lighter. Reply: ... you stray from the subject of the PSP. 6. Discs: if you have such a problem with breaking your discs, then you got a real problem that isnt sony's fault. Retort: Compare size, will you? Cartridge vs. disc. Which one can be carried without a case without fear of damaging it? 7. Free wireless internet capability coming (or so i heard) that will allow for multiplayer gaming across the globe. (can the DS do that? no, it needs another DS within its range to play.) Reply: Kagome/Darkslaya covered this one. 8. DVDS: the PSP comes with mini disc dvd's that play on the PSP. Retort: I'll say it again. You buy a portable VIDEO GAME SYSTEM to play VIDEO GAMES. While I don't like to bash systems or companies, I hate Sony for adding a CD player to the Playstation (if someone else did that first, tell me so I can hate them instead). That was the first step in turning video game consoles into 83-in-1 home entertainment systems. 9. PSP has better games, AND NO POKEMON CRAP Reply: Better games is subjective. And Kagome/Darkslaya covered the other sentence. BTW, if you think bashing pokemon makes you look more mature than people who like pokemon, it doesn't. 10. I beilieve Xeo said not to burn the PSP here. make another thread to post your complaints and let people who arent amused by a lame touch screen and are more interested in solid graphics and game play. Reply: I'm not bashing anything. Bashing is like flaming, but targeted at a concept or an inanimate object. I'm providing real reasons that I don't like the PSP. But don't get me wrong, I've got a list of complaints with the DS as well. I haven't posted them yet, but thanks for reminding me. Time to find a DS thread. Edit: Found one, but I'm not making a two week bump just to point out flaws. Now, if someone else posts there, I might be more willing. Edit2: Whoops, wrong word. Gah, my sentence structure is turning into that of HK-47. Comment: Perhaps it's time for a name change. (Last edited by Tamarin Calanis on 04-14-05 10:36 PM) |

| I remember a conversation with one of my friends on this subject. Suffice to say he didn't like them. Here's what I remember of it.
"Do you know how much crack I'd have to be on to poison myself with one of those? I don't even think crack is strong enough" That's where my memory cuts off, partially because of how much I was laughing. I've never had one, so I'll go with this:
I'd pay the fucking forty-five cents and be done with it. |

| Morrowind Game of the Year edition - Xbox (no good PC) - Heavy armor's main problem is that it's... well, heavy. Xeno Exoda, a Breton Mage/Knight hybrid, uses heavy armor... but, he's not able to carry much past his armor, his bow, his saber, and his claymore. Good thing I'm making such lightweight potions.
F-Zero GX - Dammit, gotta clear Diamond on Expert... Bright Goose-Z isn't doing it for me (Bright Spear cockpit, Aqua Goose body, Triple-Z boosters; try it yourself) That's about all. Though, RC Pro-Am 2 (NES, emulating it) sucks up my time on my own computer. |

| I have asthma, but I've been able to get around a minute or a minute and a half. I don't remember, and I don't feel like testing, so I'll just go with the lower estimate. | |||

| Well, here's why I'm not particularly active.
My time is split between a LOT of boards. I'll just list 'em for you, in no particular order. Acmlm's Elric's Simbattle NationStates (there's a few semi-intelligent debates there) Pockethouse Xeogaming. That's six boards. My posts per day at each of the above boards? Estimations: Acmlm's: 2-7 daily Elric's: 1-3 daily Simbattle: 2-10 daily NationStates: 0-3 daily Pockethouse: 1-2 daily Xeogaming: 1-5 daily Total: 7-30 daily Now, I think I split my posting amongst these boards pretty nicely. Simbattle obviously gets top priority with me being board owner. Acmlm's is just more active than here, so I'll post there more because I find more to post in. XG's third in my overall activity. You may have noticed that I was more active when I was staff here; that's because I was expected to be. I posted, pretty much because I felt like I had to. I was a moderator - later, an administrator - and I was expected to be active. Otherwise, people would question why I was on staff, no matter how well I did my job. I'm not going to dedicate any more of my time to any board. I'm often at the limit of my allowed time on the computer anyway, and that's without playing Gunbound, Ragnarok Online, or Diablo 2. So, complain all you want, I'm contributing all I can. |

Originally posted by The XeomegaHuh. So, let me see if I understand this. You ask what teh problem is - quite bluntly, I might add - and when someone makes an equally blunt reply, you get mad at them? That doesn't sound like you at all. Somehow, I think you're taking the lack of activity personally - that's the only reason I can think of for you to reply like that. oh, by the way, I wasn't implying that I wanted to be staff again in my last post, or that it would in any way help my activity. We all know what happened last time I was staff. Still have no clue who the bastard was; he wiped Simbattle before I switched to phpBB. |
