Saved!Having browsed the forums a good deal in the last couple days, I shall say this in the kindest, most genuinely proud way I can -
"Y'all were some nerdy motherfuckers!" :P-
Saved!NodleyEditing … Did you come across the legendary dogshit > OoT thread yet?
-
Saved!Silent GamerEditing … Not yet! But I shall continue my adventure! :P
-
Saved!NodleyEditing … The OoT thread is a good laugh. Doady called console gamers ignorant in another thread and I brought the argument across, I've had fun reading in my lunch break: http://www.unikgamer.com/forums/the-legend-of-zelda-ocarina-of-time-881.html
-
Saved!Silent GamerEditing … Had a quick skim :P I'll give it a good read-through tonight :) One thing I do have to say is: Thank god there are no mods here :P I think if mods get introduced to Favslist, imma nope right outta here!
-
Saved!NodleyEditing … I led a revolt against the mods at UG, it was pretty successful. They all backed right off in the end. At the beginning you couldn't fart without them locking the thread.
-
Saved!Silent GamerEditing … Can you imagine mods had intervened when I had my discussion/disagreement with Rukk about guides? I don't think I would have grown to like him nearly so much if it had just ended abruptly. I enjoy a good flame war! :P
-
Saved!NodleyEditing … Filly was the worst mod, her behaviour wasn't up to scratch and it looked bad on the site. When I first joined she called me a Mancannon wannabe! I think my personality has come through now. I set out for revenge in my own little way ;)
-
Saved!Husky WingEditing … I'm commenting because I like this thread, and want notifications when your conversation continues
-
Saved!LizardTaroEditing … " Filly was the worst mod, her behaviour wasn't up to scratch and it looked bad on the site." I wholeheartedly agree. Worst mod ever.
-
Saved!Husky WingEditing … Could you two please elaborate? I'm not familiar with the attitudes of the mods.
-
Saved!UltyEditing … unikGamer was the shit man!
-
Saved!NodleyEditing … She insulted me when I first joined, then it was all the things she used to post and she'd lock threads for minor things. I mod other places and I'm 100% professional at all times there, a good mod is.
-
Saved!LizardTaroEditing … She called my posts "nonsensical" and wouldn't do shit when some bitch called me an "idiot" on UnikGamer. Thank God that bitch left the site. I must say that I found the community on UnikGamer way worse than the one we have now on Favslist. Also, there was a guy who told me to "die in a hole" because I don't like Super Mario Sunshine. Yes, I'm serious. I still have his "private message" as a screenshot. It was actually hilarious.
-
Saved!Husky WingEditing … Almost every forum I've used was ultra aggressive, particularly to newcomers, or those who aren't assimilated into the strict culture of the community. I think Favslist is the sole exception, from my experiences (well, and tech support forums :p)
-
Saved!NodleyEditing … I remember that Waluigifan, if you go to my UG profile you'll see I responded to him with a 1/10 pure crap Mario Sunshine review :D
-
Saved!Husky WingEditing … more fun stories pls
-
Saved!NodleyEditing … Tomorrow Husky, if you get too much excitement in one day you won't sleep.
-
Saved!Husky WingEditing … You're not my dad
-
Saved!NodleyEditing … There's something you need to know.....
-
Saved!Dr EggnogEditing … I didn't find the original Silent Hill Forum aggressive and unfriendly, but everyone on Silent Hill Heaven was super pissy all the time. Those are the only two forums I really got into before Unikgamer/Favslist. I think I either missed the mod drama or didn't notice it. All I ever noticed about doady was his avatar.
-
Saved!NodleyEditing … Doady was rude as fuck. He called people ignorant console gamers and told us to shut the fuck up. In fact Pape banned him for that.
-
Saved!Dr EggnogEditing … The first thing I ever heard about him is that I remind someone of him. O.o
-
Saved!Dr EggnogEditing … Oh never mind, that was someone named Pyrr that Richard Pale said I reminded him of.
-
Saved!NodleyEditing … You're a cunt too egg. A big one, just like doady.
-
Saved!NodleyEditing … Just ignore my last comment then :D
-
Saved!Husky WingEditing … Pfft, stupid console peasants. How do you like playing at 30fps? Have fun with your 720p aliasing-ridden games, nerds! Hope you like 480p shadow resolutions!! Oh, are your games not -75% off at all times? HAHA!
-
Saved!Husky WingEditing … Like that?
-
Saved!NodleyEditing … Shut the fuck up
-
Saved!Dr EggnogEditing … The -75% off argument is the only decent one. Steam sales are pretty fucking hype. Pffffft complaining about 720p. God I don't care about HD. I played fucking Spyro 3 yesterday.
-
Saved!NodleyEditing … Anybody else have memories of UG?
-
Saved!Husky WingEditing … Yea I don't give many fucks about resolution. But then again, I'm not even using a 1080p monitor. 1600x900. Whatever, lets me run more games at maxed settings with 60fps-- and framerate is probably the most important thing to me.
-
Saved!Dr EggnogEditing … I remember I didn't like ManCannon at first. He was more of a troll back then. Me, Nod, and Klemoib had some long, great conversations. I remember the first time I used chatango it was fucking awesome but then after that it was only used for sports. :/
-
Saved!Dr EggnogEditing … I only notice slowdown when it's a BIG deal. Twisted Metal IV was the first game I ever encountered with slowdown issues. I thought the devs had done it on purpose to increase the cool factor.
-
Saved!Husky WingEditing … SLO-MO!! Framerate just makes gaming objectively better, though. More frames allow the player better response times, and will make controls feel smoother--and, of course, the game will *look* smoother. It's why competitive games, and racing games, will often decrease visuals in exchange for a smoother framerate, as fast-paced games will especially benefit from it. Motion blur's also unnecessary when playing at a fast framerate, and that's nice, since motion blur doesn't look great.
-
Saved!NodleyEditing … I liked ManCannon from day 1, he was weird but smart, his opinions were always good. I liked Klemoib from day 1 too, and that Dr guy who is a little bit like the donkey guy we have here.
-
Saved!Husky WingEditing … This ManCannon sounds like my sweet Rockshard.
-
Saved!NodleyEditing … Rockshard was always weird, I don't know why he uses the sites he doesn't make lists. He just hangs around like a bad smell.
-
Saved!Husky WingEditing … If by "bad smell" you mean a fine red wine ;3
-
Saved!Husky WingEditing … btw what does red wine smell like
-
Saved!NodleyEditing … Fruity. I love a good red wine, I shared a nice bottle last night with the wife.
-
Saved!NodleyEditing … Who remembers Firion and Aramonde? They were pretty active on UG,the weird bromance got a bit too much but they were good guys.
-
Saved!Husky WingEditing … Someday Firion will return, check the UG page, read this thread, and get pissed.
-
Saved!NodleyEditing … He's gone forever, just like Klem.
-
Saved!Husky WingEditing … Woah, that's a long time
-
Saved!NodleyEditing … Good thread! Nay, the BEST thread! http://www.unikgamer.com/forums/user-quotes-hall-of-fame-25083.html
-
Saved!NodleyEditing … The first ever edition of the msg awards! http://www.unikgamer.com/forums/msg-2012-unikgamer-awards-24314.html
-
Saved!NodleyEditing … Oh no, the mods deleted our "consider the doady" thread! I posted all his bullshit in one thread so we could laugh at it all day long :(
-
Saved!Husky WingEditing … Tell us about the doady, george
-
Saved!NodleyEditing … No, doady is dead.
-
Saved!Husky WingEditing … Tell us about the dead man, george
-
Saved!Dr EggnogEditing … I didn't notice that rockshard was weird until Favslist. I think when he started talking about the evils of strategy guides was the big whoa moment.
-
Saved!Husky WingEditing … For me it was the anti-public school rants
-
Saved!Dr EggnogEditing … Complaining about school is normal though.
-
Saved!Husky WingEditing … Saying that kids should be sent to work instead of learning is not, though
-
Saved!rockshard PhDEditing … Aside from the fact that you receive money for work, there isn't a meaningful distinction between school and work.
-
Saved!Husky WingEditing … Jobs don't teach you calculus. My elementary school offered languages & instruments. My middle school offered those, plus engineering, drama, and more. High school? Endless options. High-end academics in specific fields, and endless electives, like drama and the arts. No job would have offered those. Our country would be stupider than Texas and Florida combined if we didn't have public schools.
-
Saved!rockshard PhDEditing … I get sad when I see kids. You guys are brainwashed because you grew up in a pretend world where you think your best interests are protected by dilapilated, statist institutions that were left running autonomously since a couple of centuries ago. It's just a machine. It keeps going until it drives off a cliff because it's too big and too culturally engrained for anyone to have ant control of it. Politicians are powerless, unless of course Bill Gates lobbies to fuck it up even further like he did with Common Core. And like how school lunches are decided by frozen pizza manufacturers.
-
Saved!rockshard PhDEditing … And btw I used guides during the unikgamer days so naturally I didn't argue about it then. x(
-
Saved!Husky WingEditing … You make claims, but can you back them up? And nobody likes what Bill Gates did to public schools, he fucked them over. He restructured them in such a way that took massive education opportunities from young kids. You sound like one of the people claiming that repto-sapiens control our world. "You're all brainwashed!"
-
Saved!rockshard PhDEditing … edit: nvm
-
Saved!rockshard PhDEditing … Deleted by himself
-
Saved!Husky WingEditing … Can you back up those claims, then? School *gives* us opportunities, because it gives you the skills needed to 1. start your career (not to be confused with working a dead-end job at Burger King), and 2. Give you the education to do the things you want to do. I love space, I love science, I love technology, and school provided me with knowledge in those fields. If I'd dropped out, my first job would've had to be in the fast food industry, or groceries. Because I stayed and graduated, my first job was working IT, and I've never worked a job I didn't want.
-
Saved!Husky WingEditing … Was typing that out before the edit ^
-
Saved!rockshard PhDEditing … it's ok now. Turns out I can edit and delete and windows phone but it's tricky.
-
Saved!Husky WingEditing … that's fortunate
-
Saved!rockshard PhDEditing … This is another reason to get an android phone, since I use this site the most. But then again it's probably the site's fault more so than it is Microsoft's.
-
Saved!Husky WingEditing … There's a phrase I use for these situations.
-
Saved!Husky WingEditing … (but honestly I don't think this issue is too serious, not like it's ruining the site)
-
Saved!Dr EggnogEditing … I will always stand by the idea that Rockshard talking about school sucking is the best thing he does here.
-
Saved!NodleyEditing … Yet another post ruined by Rukk and his never ending rambling.
-
Saved!Dr EggnogEditing … Where is it? It's not this one. Here he's talking about school sucking.
-
Saved!rockshard PhDEditing … "he doesn't make lists" I literally can't make lists because I don't use a PC.
-
Saved!Husky WingEditing … "He's gone forever, just like Klem." ... about that :p
-
Saved!rockshard PhDEditing … doady left because of me. I still feel kind of bad about it. It's kind of funny though because I'm a loser piece of shit but apparently he still cared enough about what I say to actually leave over it. I guess he didn't know.
-
Saved!Husky WingEditing … Details, details!
-
Saved!rockshard PhDEditing … He left multiple times tho. Someone would piss him off and he'd up and leave. He'd eventually come back but this time he didn't. And that stings a little.
-
Saved!Husky WingEditing … More details! Specific details, prithee!
-
Saved!Husky WingEditing … why did I just Shakespeare
-
Saved!NodleyEditing … doady left once when Papi banned him. That was fun, I laughed long and hard! He was arguing with me, as usual, and I was trolling him so he got so mad he said nastly things. I was the cause, I did it on purpose, and it made me really happy to get rid of him for a bit.
-
Saved!NodleyEditing … I enjoyed reading all this again. Oh look, I just did a rukk and revived an ancient post : D
-
Deleted!
