Boys and girls, you have to admit, this kicks ezboard's butt

[Itala Marzullo]

What do you guys think of this board so far? I think the features are way better such as the avatar instant replacement over all posts, the speed is much better too. The quick instant messenger icons below the usernames, the photo album, etc.

Not to mention the kind and warm townsfolk. ;)

Oh yes, you guys do know that you're allowed to post around the Star Wars sections and such right? TMC isn't a prison. At least, I hope it isn't!

[Dasquian Belargic]

I'm glad you think so :) We're always aiming to find new features to add, to make using the board a more enjoyable and efficient experience.

As Itala said, please feel free to join the rest of us in our discussions outside of the TMC forums. We'd love to get to know you all.

[Itala Marzullo]

Right now they are all like 5 week old kittens, looking around and meowing.

[tabris27]

Meow. Nyaa. Miou. Miao. Miyav. Miyou.

English, Japanese, German, Spanish, Turkish and Russian. Multilingual meowing.

LoL~!!!!! Wow... that cracked me up...the picture below it helped out a lot to... so thank you Laura and Jules for that....

But back to the topic, the board is much better than ezboard. I really like the features a lot more than ezboard.

:lol

Oh man, forum ADD is the best.

[Razielle Alastor]

That's right, the first time you post outside TMC you are doomed to be stuck in Rainbow Monkey land..

[Fieron Marzullo]

Raz, you clown.

Ok, but one question: Is it the monkeys that are ROYGBIV, or is it the lands themselves?

[Itala Marzullo]

Raz, you clown.

o_O

I don't think I've had the pleasure.

[Matthias Marzullo]

Were you never taught about Roy G Biv in art class?

Red
Orange
Yellow

Green

Blue
Indigo
Violet

[Alexia Marzullo]

What are you talking about in art class... we were taught that in science

where do you guys get these crazy pictures? are they all from the ebaumsworld?

[Itala Marzullo]

Ebaum's forums have millions of them, good stuff.

[Matthias Marzullo]

I was taught it in Art Class first so :p

[Razielle Alastor]

http://youtube.com/watch?v=H_MMXnDmf1s

Rainbow monkeys. Fear them.

[Morgan Evanar]

Yeah, Ebaum steals from everyone else.

[Matthias Marzullo]

Holy crap, I'm scared for my life now

[Hartus Kenobi]

I actually wasn't aware that indigo was included among the colors of the rainbow. I thought it was ROYGBV, but they pronounced the "BV" as "biv"

[Lilaena De'Ville]

I learned it Richard Of York Gave Battle In Vain, whatever that means, but its the same thing. Except different. :uhoh

[Razielle Alastor]

Jeez, Roy G Biv seems a but easier.. O_O!

[Dasquian Belargic]

I learned it Richard Of York Gave Battle In Vain, whatever that means, but its the same thing. Except different. :uhoh

That's what we're taught in the UK :) Red Orange Yellow Green Blue Indigo Violet.

[Lilaena De'Ville]

Which is where I learned it. ;)

And it stuck because I still remember it to this day and think about it whenever I see a rainbow. :uhoh :D

[Itala Marzullo]

Enough about rainbows!

Marzullos, if you noticed those little scales below our names, you click on those whenever you like someone's post and leave them rep, it's fun!:\

[Matthias Marzullo]

Well I guess I need to go give props to Laura then.

[Fieron Marzullo]

Whenever my sister sees pride stickers on someone's vehicle, she comments about the "ROYGBIV" stickers. So ROYGBIV and rainbows make me think of pride stickers, which in turn makes me think of my friend Brian from high school, who was both gay and a Jehovah's Witness.

I mean, come on....that's not supposed to be possible, right? Don't they excommunicate/disown you or something for that?

Anyhow, yeah. Go me.

....Speaking of 'props', I think Kelly Perris [my flyboy character] got props for being so suave and cool. The Rebel Alliance's pretty boy.

[Serpent Drinnon]

Yay, go England!!!!

[Itala Marzullo]

God save the queen?

[Dasquian Belargic]

To quote Eddie Izzard...


Now the Queen lives in a very big house, she has barbed wire outside, and people with guns in front of that. That's one saved queen, I'll tell you! That's the problem! She's overly saved! She has no idea of the struggle of human existence. We have to work for a living, raise a family… we don't have nannies all running around the place. It's what you've got to do in your life, you know? So it's "God Save the Queen." No! It's too saved. It's "God Attack the Queen," that's what it should be! ( singing ) "God attack the Queen, send big dogs after her that bite her bum. Let them chase after her and rip her knickers off..." That'd be fantastic! Then she'd have to fight the crazy dog with a handbag with a brick inside of it.

"Crazy dog! Crazy dog!"
"Arrgghh, kill the Queen!"
"No - crazy dog!"


And maybe she'd kill the crazy dog and everyone in Britain would go, "Hey, fair play to the Queen,- killed the crazy dog." And the Queen would have self-respect for the first time in her life! Yes. It would work. It'd be fantabulous.

[tabris27]

Eddie Izzard is brilliant. lol!

"Cake or death?"

[Ares Marzullo]

So how often are upgrades done?

[TheHolo.Net]

So how often are upgrades done?When necessary, which isn't usually that often. (Maybe once a year)

[Matthias Marzullo]

Oh how stupid of me... I was looking at Laura's tabris name and was wondering why she didn't have any rep points. I forgot I gave her props on her Selene post. :lol

Bah, just looked at the Selene name and she didn't have any there either. Did my rep not go through... how sad.

[Itala Marzullo]

Yah the whole rep poins can be rigged unfortunately, it should be limited by IP or something.

[Lilaena De'Ville]

Unless you have a higher rep than zero yourself, you don't add points onto others when you give them rep.

When your rep power is 1, then you leave them 1 rep point, +/-, when you give reputation out.

[Dasquian Belargic]

Yah the whole rep poins can be rigged unfortunately, it should be limited by IP or something.

Rigged? :huh

[Itala Marzullo]

Rigged? :huh

Yes, if you have a bunch of different accounts, right?

[Dasquian Belargic]

You mean giving yourself rep? Well, I'm not sure why anyone would want to do that :huh I generally just use it to let people know if they've made a good/useful post. As LD said, though, you can only really give rep points if you've received them.

It's also worth noting that the staff can see all rep comments given - I check them on a daily basis. If someone was trying to 'exploit' the system to inflate their own rep, we'd know ;)

You actually check them every day? :D

Oh yeah so, why are Hollie's bars red? Cause she's evil?

Nobody gets mod powers or something anyway so why would you care?

[Dasquian Belargic]

You get little red bars if you receive negative reputation (gained by clicking 'I disapprove' rather than 'I approve'). Holly and I artificially altered our bars as part of the joke that she is the evil dictator of the board, whilst I am the benevolent overseer... like a good-cop bad-cop admin duo :mneh If a character is particularly evil, I will often give them some negative reputation as kudos for being an excellent villain.

The reason I check them, is to see if anyone is abusing the system - i.e. to flame another user. No one has done this so far - as was predicted when the system was first implemented - and I don't think anyone ever will, but there's nothing wrong with being vigilant. Plus, I like to see all the positive encouragement you all give one another ;)

Jen the voyeur, never imagined it. :D

[Dasquian Belargic]

What? It warms my little heart to see all the kudos you're giving one another! :p

It's always good to see people letting someone know that they've enjoyed reading a post or thread of theirs. :)

[Itala Marzullo]

I can still imagine you with your Irish elf outfit behind a bush with binoculars. :D

[Lilaena De'Ville]

I am evil. >D

[Matthias Marzullo]

Ah, that explains it now. Interesting.

[Tiranna Marzullo]

If Hollie was in Hills Have Eyes the mutants would be the ones being stalked. :D

[Bella D'lyes]

Hmmmm...I suppose that would all make sense to me if I read it a little slower...but the important thing is that Walter was nice to me!

*hugs Walter!*

[Matthias Marzullo]

*hugs Laura!*

It's kewl because you started a "Save Matthias" petition for me. :D

[Dante Marzullo]

Nah, what saved Matthias was you posting, not Laura.

[tabris27]

That wasn't what he said. He was nice because I cared enough to start up a petition not because it actually did anything. So there. :-p

[Matthias Marzullo]

You are exactly right Laura!

[Itala Marzullo]

You two are troll and trollette.

[Matthias Marzullo]

We are your worst nightmares! Muahahaha!!!

[tabris27]

Grrrrrr. Arrrrrrrgh.

(Heh)

[Matthias Marzullo]

Grrrrrr. Arrrrrrrgh.

(Heh)

That guy was awesome!!!

[Itala Marzullo]

That guy could be a million people.

I received a gray bar. Not quite sure what that means.

[tabris27]

Nah, Walter knows who I was making a reference too. Any Buffy fan should. ^_~

[Itala Marzullo]

Screw Buffy, always liked the movie way more.

[Matthias Marzullo]

Yes yes I did Laura. :D

And whatever blows your dress up Jules... :lol

[Alexia Marzullo]

There was a Buffy movie? Crazy...
I never got into Buffy either, probably because my mom was (and still is) crazy and did not let us watch "bad" shows like that...

[Itala Marzullo]

Luke Perry and Kristie Swanson forever!

[tabris27]

I remember the movie, wonderfully cheesy. Still liket he TV show more though.

[Dasquian Belargic]

Oh come on... the Buffy movie was awful!

[tabris27]

Exactly.

:cool:

[Itala Marzullo]

Oh come on... the Buffy movie was awful!

Opinion schminion! I liked it, and that's all that matters here! :D

[tabris27]

What else can you expect from a parady movie from the early '90s?
