I LIKE TO BE A DICTATOR!
I remember it happened pretty fast. The first two AcmlmBoards I joined were Challenge Games (rom hacking) and Acmlm's itself. After that I started meeting a few others and stumbled upon a bunch of other boards. I ended up being an admin on several of them, one was with this guy and Randy... I can't even remember the name of the board though. But I just thought it'd be awesome to be the sole owner of my own board, have the power to make whatever forums I want, and all that stuff. Money was obviously always the issue though back then haha, since we were always hosted by others, had some of those free site ventures loaded with ads... etc. Glad I never have to deal with that stuff anymore. I guess that's my painfully obvious recommendation to any potential webmasters out there, make sure you actually control the backbone of things so you can guarantee it's safety and stability. I am very proud of the board and it feels like another home in some ways. We've been through a lot. I would like to see the place be bigger, but honestly the drive in me for it isn't quite what it used to be. I know first hand some people left here because of my pushy attitude about it back in the day, so I backed off... and have just been a lot more casual about it since then. I'm not really into forums anymore like I used to be. I swear I was probably on every single AB at one point and an admin for half of them, haha. I used to pay attention to every single number on that stats here for AB's back in the day, haha. Not so much anymore, but it's fun to see the numbers rise and it feels great to finally hit the 10,000 milestone. I'm not obsessed about being staff anymore either. Here I stay on the throne, but I'm no longer staff on any other board out there (not that I'm on many others now though) and I'm pretty positive if I were offered any positions on any other place but here, I'd turn it down. Here is different, but elsewhere I simply don't want that obligation or responsibility anymore. I put in enough time of that throughout the history of AB's. lol |

None of my family and I'd keep it that way. I used to try and get some friends to check out here and AB's back in the day, I think a few are registered here still... guess it was never their thing though. I tried, but nothing really happened. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Everyone has their vice. |
![]() To be honest that's probably it. They know I tried smoking weed once or twice and that wasn't a huge deal. In general I don't think there's much I've been hiding from them over the years. When I was drinking and partying when I was 19 I just always said I was "going bowling", but I think I eventually told my mom what I was really doing and it wasn't a big deal as well. They've known I can handle myself and am pretty level headed I guess. When I was growing up though my mom was always more lenient than my dad. She let me buy some M rated games when I wanted (yes my dad was big on the ratings thing too), let me see R rated movies, that sort of thing. I'm not sure if my dad ever knew. Nowadays it's hilarious because my dad is very liberal. The whole family isn't big on church anymore. Everybody cusses now and it's not an issue. It's to the point that I think I'm probably agnostic nowadays and I don't think my dad would care at all, not sure about my mom though. She's still a bit more conservative, but questions things a lot. We still go to church for Easter/Christmas usually and I tend to be honest with my family now and tell them I don't enjoy it and feel pretty uncomfortable. But oh well, I can handle it twice a year now. I like to tease my sister that she had it easier growing up since they were more laid back and had less rules... though of course there's been a lot of rules for her being a girl and all, haha.

The "move back in with your parents" thing really gets me. Just WHA? |

I've been all over the US a bit actually, thanks to my grandparents back when they could take us all on vacation. It kind of stopped happening a few years ago though.

California was probably my first trip when I was 4-ish, went to the beach and Disney Land. Had a blast though it's a bit hard to recall much from that one, other than I loved one of the scarier rides called Black Mountain or something like that. Texas I went too once to visit my dad's parents when I was younger. Hated it, so much haha. It was scorching hot and this is when me, my mom, and my sister all got the chicken pocks. So I just stayed in the house the whole time. But this is when I was introduced to Star Wars, and watched the trilogy like 10x over on that trip alone. Chicago I've been too several times, there's my uncle and my mom's birth parents. My uncle always gets us in the big city and it's nice to visit, but not sure if I'd ever like to live there. And I thought KS rush hour traffic was bad? Just no competition compared to Chicago... it felt like my mom's parents there lived a bit more on the outskirts or something though in a small town, which I liked there. We traveled up to Wisconsin once to spend time with my cousins family. We hit up the Dell's and were at a lake the whole time so that was a lot of fun. It looked a little like KS in the areas we were at, lakes aside. Kind of smaller town stuff compared to Chicago. Oklahoma I went too once for a field trip. It was alright, the bus ride was fun since it was a real bus with TV's ... Florida I've been too twice I think. I definitely love it there. Although the ocean seems crazier than California's. Disney World is craziness, the trams and its own highway... quite an experience. We've been to Saint Louis a few times to hit up Six Flags and whatnot. It's pretty cool out there. We actually technically lived in Missouri when we moved back from Tennessee when I was in grade school. We were only in Missouri for a year though. I've been to Iowa a few times with some friends visiting their families. Now that place is pretty much Western KS all over again... I'd still like to visit Colorado, and some other big cities sometime.

Originally posted by Cteno Wow, lol. I think I'm about ready to give up on this venture by the way. My pics probably don't help, but oh well. After putting some real effort into dozens and dozens of messages with nothing in response back... I won't say I give up, but I'm just straight up wasting my time. And what chick is going to seek out a dude when their inboxes are flooded by the day? I've seen so many delete their accounts after awhile too it's kind of crazy. I'd like to maybe check out eharmony, but at this point what's that going to offer over PoF and OkC? Kind of hard to convince me now. Perhaps I was a little too late on this. I can almost imagine maybe there would've been more success here if I tried it out years ago, but now that the entire world is all about social networking, these places just seem to be too flooded.

I don't think so. It's not often I really see myself trying to connect with characters or figure them out honestly, in games, anime, TV shows, movies, etc. Can't think of a good way to describe it right now, but I've always been one that gets more caught up in the bigger plot, wanting to know the details, let my imagination run wild with speculation, etc. The "what" rather than the "why" usually, I think. The games that really speak to me are games that don't hold my hand and rather let me sink into its world and explore the story and world myself... like Metroid, Deus Ex, System Shock 2, Fallout New Vegas, that kind of stuff. |

Well, I run down some searches on OkCupid across the US off and on, still nothing. I wonder if I can change it on POF to do that too? It's at the point where if I met someone online that's not too far, I would go out of my way to meet them in person. It would be pretty exciting.

But yeah back to square one anyways. I'm back on a 4/10's Mon-Thur schedule here and might look into part time jobs to keep me busy Friday, I'm definitely going to look around my community college. A coffee shop or something would be nice, just being around a lot of people my age probably, etc. Money isn't the issue, just finding a "fun" job on the side and meeting people would be the goal. Maybe you guys have some ideas? That or maybe I can start getting active around my school doing community stuff, no idea. So yeah the issue is probably both me... AND KANSAS!!!

It was spiritual, not a Christian group. Definitely need to clarify there. It was a great experience and our relationship has been much better since then.

I think she's doing okay lately. Hard to tell though. It's my time to be selfish and stop worrying about my family though, I've worried too much about friends and family over the years and forgot to remember number one. So, just being honest. It's gonna be her battle. For the most part she's doing fine, but not working much at all and doesn't seem that prepared, so I have no idea what her and my family will be doing about money concerns.
