draketh99 -> =MtAK= Rolling to an OOC Near You! (11/11/2013 23:20:52)

Good evening, all! I'm Draketh, your newest OOC AK. I do suppose it's time to get this MtAK up and rolling, as a good armadillo should!

But before we do, a few things I'd like to get out of the way.

Firstly, All =AE= Comprehensive Rules apply.

Secondly, limit yourself to 20 questions per post, one post per page, and only one cookie per armadillo.

Thirdly, I reserve the right to answer questions how I see fit or not at all if necessary. However, so long as questions are good natured, and I don't feel as though I'm being asked for personal information, then you can probably count on my answering it.

A few things to remember,

If I feel I've already answered a question, I will answer with the post number on which the question had already been answered

Vague questions typically result in vague answers.

If a post is edited after I've answered it, there's a chance I won't see it.

Alright, enjoy!

I will be editing posts in this lovely shade


Edit: I will be locking this thread on December 4th, EST




Gingkage -> RE: =MtAK= Rolling to an OOC Near you! (11/11/2013 23:29:42)

D! :D
Ging! :D


*glomps excitedly*
Glomps in return

Will have good questions next page. For now, a standard question, and a gift.
You mean this post isn't the gift?


If you could have any one thing from any book, movie, or TV show (or anime/cartoon/manga/other media), what would it be?
I would like a future diary, because awesome.


Now the gift.


*holds out a box* This box holds an infinite supply of one thing, and one thing only. What's in it?
Tacos, definitely tacos. I'll be needing them.


Glomp Mritha for me next time you see her. :D
Twice the average glomping shall commence!


That's all from me. Congrats, and good luck! And of course, welcome to the realm of the AK. RUN! RUN BEFORE IT'S TOO LATE!
No matter how fast I run, the hallway get's longer!




Ingo -> RE: =MtAK= Rolling to an OOC Near you! (11/12/2013 0:23:20)

Hi Draketh!
Hello, Ingo!

Congrats on becoming an AK!
Much thanks, I'm definitely excited!

Any direct/indirect/mirror/coincidental relations with Drakath anywhere?
There's the coincidental relation that we have similar names that are off by one letter. But other than that, I've had this name long before I'd heard of AE.

What are the AE games you play the most?
Dragonfable, by far.

Which one is your favorite?
Once again, Dragonfable. The art, gamestyle and story/genre all fit my tastes more perfectly than any other AE game.

No other questions. *hops on his kangaroo and rides away*
*Watches the kangaroo and zookeeper ride off into the sunset*

Have fun!
Thanks!


Behold, Ingo, Zookeeper of Lore vvvvv (down arrows)
Behold, Draketh, Armadillo of Purple, Seek-rat-ly editing your post!




Death Lord -> RE: =MtAK= Rolling to an OOC Near you! (11/12/2013 0:27:09)

Omg!! Its Drakath!! Run for your lives!!
May Elryn slap you with a warning shot...


Oh wait..its just draketh99.
Just...? Just!?

Hiyas! XD
Ohey, Death!

Congrats on becoming the next ArchknIght, you'll be going bananas soon enough definitely enjoy it.
The two go hand in hand, you have to be a bit nuts already to say yes...


Enough pleasantries, lets skip to the interrogation.
*Stares blindly into the bright lightbulb currently being pointed at his face*

1.The question we're all dying to know the answer to...What made you choose your forum name?
Name of a character I wrote about when I was younger, and have continued to develop and draw throughout the years. The "99" comes from my being younger than I am now when I made it, and adding numbers to your name was cool...

o_O
<(o_O<)

2.Favourite forum member Pick Me me!!
All of them!

3.What does the colour trap mean?
I don't know, but I feel like I shouldn't have googled it...

4.What's 2+2?
22, I've so totally got this!

[8|] You can count!!!?? No one told me that.
No one told me, either.... Why does no one tell me things? D:

5.*gives a gift*Here you go, mate
*noms on the gift*

6. You opened it!!??. You were supposed to give it back to me in the future. [:(]
I didn't technically open it...


7.Your opinion about Novak Djokovic?
He's got a cool name

8.In a war against Ninjas and Pirates, whom would you support and why?
Ninjas, that way I don't have to talk and no one will question it.

9.What's your favourite book?
"The Supernaturalist" By Eoin Colfer

10.How did Mritha imprison you in your not too comfy shackles appoint you as an Arch knight of the OOC section?
Genetic ability.

>_<

I think that's enough for this page, see you again on the next page.*insert ebil laugh here*
Oh.... I'll be seeing you.... But you won't see me.... Because next time, I'll be deadly serious next time!


Ciao!
See ya!~

Bows and fades back into the underworld.

bokterier -> RE: =MtAK= Rolling to an OOC Near you! (11/12/2013 2:43:52)

Hello Draketh. Gratulations with the position as the new AK! :D
Thank you kindly!

Now... Onto the intorrogation questions... >:D
You won't break me! I swear of it!

1. What is the main character in life? (You could pick any human/animal/insect/Bokterier from any worlds...)
It would depend on the collective perspective of the author and readers.

2 and 3. What can you do for the better here on the forums? Any changes or just doing what every other AK's been doing?
2:Stay polite, stay respectful, encourage productive discussion and nudge everyone else to do the same! ^^
3: I don't really know about changes. My job and hope is to keep this a wonderful place for discussion and interaction for everyone. So I intend to do just that!


4. Do you like pancakes?
In moderation, I do.

5. Do you like applecake
I don't know, but it sounds delicious!

6. What kind of genre is your favourite when watching Anime?
I can assure you, there isn't just one... But I do enjoy psychological thrillers or supernatural suspense/horror

7. Fave Anime?
Probably Elfen Lied. It's so beautiful and the feels still hurt.

8. Would you support He-Man or She-Ra if it was a war between them?
I'd side with the Trololol guy.

If you could use the powers of only one superhero/villain/anime character/Bokterier... What would it be?
The Stigma of the Wind from Kazo no Stigma would be cool. Or the Branches of Sin from Deadman Wonderland would be fun, too.

That's it from me! I hope you'll do a good job! :D
What a coincidence, I do too!

*Waves and jumps into the air*
*Waves and rolls around on the ground*




epic pie -> RE: =MtAK= Rolling to an OOC Near You! (11/12/2013 7:48:30)

Hi!
Hey!


I don't know you, but I'm sure we'll see you often in the OOC
I don't know you either, but you probably shall!


So, do you like pie?
...Did you say pie?



Still in school?
Indeed I am, I'm currently in school for Graphic Design.


Do you have any interesting hobbies?
My main hobbies are drawing, digital painting, attempting to teach myself to animate, videogames of all kinds, watching anime, and scrounging around looking for free time.


That's all I'm coming up with, nice to meet you!
Then that's all I'm answering. Nice to meet you too!




Sainsbo -> RE: =MtAK= Rolling to an OOC Near You! (11/12/2013 12:15:45)

Heya D!
Heya Sains!

Congrats on your new position!
Thank you kindly!

What's your favourite band?
Y u make me pick? D: It changes far too often to have a definitive favorite, but I quite often come back to listening to Rise Against.

Favourite song?
Hijo de lan Luna by Mecano


Favourite food?
Pad Thai ^^

Have you even watched "The Human Centipide"?
Why did you wish such horrid memories on me...?

If yes, what did you think of it?
...

That's all, congrats again!
Thanks, man!




Legendium -> RE: =MtAK= Rolling to an OOC Near You! (11/12/2013 13:10:36)

Man, I haven't posted on an MtAK in ages. Guess it's time to freshen up with some new questions.
You do that, and I'll freshen up on answers!

Oh right, you're still here.
As is GLaDOS

So then. Question time, I suppose.
No, it's Hammer Time

1. What, is your name?
My name is King Arthur!

2. What is your quest?
I am on a quest for the holy grail!

3. What is the definition of copyright infringement, and am I breaking it?
*This answer has been removed by your ISP*


4. Don't take that seriously.
I am offended! D:

5. Did that count as a question?
You numbered it, so yes.

6. How about that one?
See: 5

7. I should stop wasting my questions.
You can't wish for more wishes, either.

8. What are your thoughts on the color green? *warily watches while sharpening axe*
It looks great behind a wall of purple.

9. Oh wait, I've used that one before in other MtAKs. I'm supposed to be coming up with new stuff.
Come on, men! We need something new, here!

10. Are you still here?
No.

11. If you are the 99th Draketh, what happened to all the others?
When each dies, a new armadillo is re-incarnated with another band. I am now a 99 banded armadillo!

12. What is the most complicated formula you can come up with>
Your question equals less than whitespace.

13. Does it trump the invisible text that is most definitely not next to this question mark?
It totally does.


14. Did that fool you?
I was a fool already, jokes on you!

15. Was that really a necessary question, since you can see invisible text when editing?
I see dead people...

16. If 42 is the meaning of life, would 24 be the meaning of death?
No, but it IS slightly less funny than 25.

17. If in Skyrim, the Dwemer are known as the deep elves, and live under-ground, why don't the High Elves, known as Altmer live up high?
Because Elder Scrolls? All I ever really did in that game was run around and kill rabbits...

17. And why is it that the Khajiit are higher than any of them?
....Because altitude? Maybe?

18. See what I did there? Twice? Actually, that makes it three, since that was a pun. I'm not sure if I'm making sense.
You probably would be, if I were more awake.

19. Is this really the last question?
Is this real life? Or is this just fantasy?

Anyways, thank you for listening to my useless ramble. Oh, right, gifts.
It was a pleasure, be sure!

*throws green paint to draketh*
You shouldn't have done that...

You may find this more stylish than your.... current color. *casts her eyes upon this post and the poster* ~M4B
You REALLY shouldn't have done that... *Watches for purple fairies*

Just kiddin'. I'm okay with purpul. That is, if your editing color represents your color alliance.
ALL HAIL THE BENEVOLENT PURPLE FAIRY QUEEN

Right. Goodbye.
Pleasure talking with you!

*imitates Dwelling Dragonlord's exit*

*trips*
*catches*

Wait, I already did that in a different MtAK! Whatever. Bye. And congratulations.
Bye and thanks!

And here's the real gift. It's food for thought.

If the cake is a lie, then are all lies cake? If so, is it morally correct to lie, if cake represents all good in the world? And what then, if the cake is cookie cake?
Fallacies of distribution and ambiguity of terms. But anything is fine so long as it's in cookie form.

Note: You didn't have to answer any of those, since they weren't really questions. They were supposed to leave pondering.
*ponders*

*leaves via door instead of dramatic exits*

*pets Ging's wolf on the way out*

*loses hand*
I'll help you find it, sometime! D:




Skurge -> RE: =MtAK= Rolling to an OOC Near You! (11/12/2013 13:30:56)

- Hello draketh99!
Hello Skurge!


- First and foremost, congratulations and welcome to the team.
Thank you! I look forward to losing what's left of my sanity alongside you all!


Questions:
1) Define "Steampunk".
An edgy and intense fellow reduced to scattered, high energy water molecules.


2) Would you rather have 100 duck sized horses or 1 horse sized duck?
A horse sized duck, honestly. There would be no better way to get to work.


3) What is the ideological relationship between the post-modern French writers of the mid 1930's and the various relio-political social military organizations that were formed in South-Eatern Asia during the pre-Cold War period, with regards to how the anachronistic combination of such people, ideas, and organizations has a negative influence on the mediocre post-secondary education facilities of South America, with scholarly references to pre-existing issues such as the fact that local governments in North-Western Switzerland have relatively low tax incentives for the upper-middle class, and what militaristic undertones would a comprehensive solution to these philosophical issues contain?
Further study into nature vs. nurture and having a better understanding on what is innate in the human mind and what is learned.


4) Where did you get your username from?
Post #4


That's all for now. Have fun!
Alright, thank you and have a good evening!

Therril Oreb -> RE: =MtAK= Rolling to an OOC Near You! (11/12/2013 17:48:30)

Hey draketh!
Heyo Therril!

gratz on your brand new shackles!
Thanks! They can be useful for grabbing onto things and sliding down ziplines!

*checks the colour*
I don't think you really did...

Green with raven feathers, I approve :)
Not even close, purple velvet. I had Mel order them for me!

You egt enough color questions thrown your way so I'll spare you of that
I have been spared!

But what is your opinion of the ravens?
They're wonderful to quoth.

Careful with the answer, your boss is a fellow raven :)
Shhhhh, nobody knows that.

*gives 1 cookie for every armadillo rolling about here*
*Happily noms the cookie* ^^

Seeya draketh!
See ya!




Viking_Jorun -> RE: =MtAK= Rolling to an OOC Near You! (11/12/2013 18:00:54)

Welcome to the team, draketh! n_n
Thanks!

How are the shackles?
They're alright. They fit and they make my wrists feel secure...

What color are they?
Purple, they are!

Well, since you and Skurge are sharing the responsibility of cleaning my axe, prepare for the inevitable. Have your tetanus shots up to date, a french maid outfit, and cleaning supplies! :D
I have two of the three! Feel free to guess which is which.

It sounds much worse than it really is. :p
An interesting and curious concept.

Well, I don't want to waste too much of your time!
Never a waste, pleasure talking to you!

Congratulations and welcome to the team! n_n
Thanks!

Dragonknight315 -> RE: =MtAK= Rolling to an OOC Near You! (11/12/2013 18:03:13)

*Drops in, falling from the sky. Lands on you*
Oof!

Hi Draketh!
Heya DK!

AK Ship, huh?
The best form of shipping there is!

So, Like all MtAKs, I have a list of questions to ask in order to cause the most trouble, along with some specific ones.
You? Wanting to cause trouble? *le shock*

1( How did you first come across Artix Entertainment?
I've always been a gigantic fan of RPGs, especially fantasy styled ones. I used to play runescape when I was a good bit younger(have mercy on me!). Long story short, I played a LOT of runescape until my parents blocked it from the home computer. Desperate for another fantasy RPG to fill my time, I came across Dragonfable. I've been here since!

2( Can I haz mod weapon? <.<
*Hands him a 0 damage weapon with -99 rarity.

3( Please? T_T
Look at your hand! D:<

4( Which of the AE Games is your favorite?
Dragonfable, most definitely

5( What was your favorite sidequest/quest line in DF?
Each and every one of the mogloween questchains.

6( If the wood falls off a canoe, then why a duck?
So that I could ride it to work!

7( Has your castle ever sunk into a swamp?
It's alright, she turned me into a newt!


Time for the Personals.
Uhhhhhh, whut?

8( Have you seen Puella Magi Madoka Magica?
Nope!

9( If yes, tell me how much you liked it. If no, you must watch the entire show before finishing this question.


10( How did you get into Graphic Design and Story writing?
Graphic design I got into because I've always loved to organize things and make them look nice. All types of visual art have interested me, even when I didn't know it. Mix that with my deciding I'd like to get into web design, because it'd be a fun and useful skill, I settled on a quest to become a graphic design. As far as story writing? I'm not much of a writer, genuinely, I never finish anything. But stories tend to write themselves in my head, and I end up writing something down eventually to get it out of my head.

11( ALL HAIL THE BENEVOLENT PURPLE FAIRY QUEEN!
MAY HER GRACE FLOW FROM HER WINGS!

12( If John has five apples and Sue has 3 apples, why don't they shut up and eat the apples?
They could be allergic, like myself. Be sensitive to their needs, man.

13( When are we going to do that RP fight?
When I've finished scrounging for free time.

Alright, Congrats again on getting AK'ed!!
Thank you much!

*Le Poofs*
*Le Rolls*




T.600 -> RE: =MtAK= Rolling to an OOC Near You! (11/12/2013 20:36:38)

Hi :)
Good evening :)

Is egalitarianism an attainable ideal when there are hierarchies? Where is the line between enforcing rules and removing an individual's autonomy? As you have advanced in the chain of being on this forum, how do you intend to achieve this balance and edge closer to the aforementioned ideal?
I'd suppose it would truly depend on your definition of equality, there exists a whole set of worldviews and beliefs that would or could use varying definitions of equality and what it becomes in practice. The line between enforcing rules and removing an individual's autonomy is one that has been, and will continue to be pursued. Needless to say it's not something fully revealed to myself, nor do I know if it's something definite or subject to change. The best solution in the mean time I can consider is to allow a consensus to decide where they see the line and how to act upon it, realizing it very well may be subject to change later. And in response to the final question, my goal and position here, while to some may be considered advancing on a chain, is really to serve you all. It's my job and goal to devote my time to make sure that everyone here can enjoy their time and discussions here in a relaxed and safe environment. The AK abilities are simply tools to ensure I can help everyone else working in this board and on the forums to do just that.

Would you help a stranger in need if you had nothing to gain? Be honest, as most people, including myself, probably would not.
The term "need" is vague and you know it. In a perfectly honest answer, it would completely depend on the situation. Though I would like to strive for it to be habit to aid someone.


What is one peculiar thing that you like doing in your spare time?
I go out at night to stare at the moon and stars quite often. Every now and then I wake up with a need to see the sky. I suppose you could count that as peculiar.


Would you rather 'follow the crowd' and blend in society or stand up for change?
"I want to be different, just like everyone else."

What's your favourite food?
Post #7

Would you ever consider moving countries?
I would. There are several other cultures that fascinate me. The hardest part would be moving to a place that I would be fairly unfamiliar with and not knowing anyone, though the internet tends to be helpful for cases like that.

Blimey! Some of these questions seem really serious! I probably scrutinise our politicians less than this (you can probably guess what my future aspirations are)! Anyway, good luck with everything, I'm sure you will do a good job, based on the other posts I've read in this thread, you seem like a friendly and easy-going person :D.
Thank you kindly! It was a pleasure conversing with you, and best of luck with your future aspirations!




Starflame13 -> RE: =MtAK= Rolling to an OOC Near You! (11/12/2013 21:10:49)

Hey D!!! *snugs D in excitement*
Hiya Star! *Returns the snug before lifting her to his shoulders*

Congratz on becoming an AK!!!
Thank you so much ^^ I'm excited!

*looks around* So this is the OOC? I've never really been here before, but looks interesting!
Yup, this is it! Get's a little quiet every now and then, but it's a lot of fun! I've learned a lot here, too!

If you could have one pet animal, guaranteed that it was house trained and wouldn't attack anyone, what animal would you want as a pet (Besides an armadillo...)
Of course you'd limit me that way ._. guaranteed that it was house trained and wouldn't attack anyone? A reticulated python. If only so I could keep a sign on the yard that said "Beware of 35 foot long dog with unhinging jaw".

That's all, just came by to say Congratz!
Thank you again!

*Hugs the armadillo and leaves behind a plate of cupcakes so the one cookie limit doesn't affect her*
*hugs back and begins nomming on the cupcakes* ^^




Faerdin -> RE: =MtAK= Rolling to an OOC Near You! (11/12/2013 22:18:19)

Dbro! *Snugs the dillo* :D
Faebro! *Snugs the Runeknight*

It was only a matter of time, really. It's awesome to finally have you with us!
How do you people make this sound like it was expected? ._.

Well, without any further ado... It's QUESTION TIME. *Twirls his mustache*
*Twirls Fae's mustache as well*

1) What color are your shackles?
Purple Velvet!

2) Is that color your favorite color?
Yes, yes it is! ^^

3) I already knew the answer to those last two questions. Y U NO LUFF BLOO? D:
BECAUSE BLOO IS JUST INCOMPLETE PURPLE

4) The purpul will consume you someday. It's not a question, but...
If I am to be consumed with love, acceptance and completeness, then I will accept my fate.

5) What about the OOC Forum keeps you coming back?
The discussion here has always been something I could either learn from or relate to. It tends to adapt and evolve as my tastes and interests do, and it's a good place to find some intelligent or thoughtful discussion, which I tend to have trouble finding in my immediate physical location.

I would think of more questions to torment you with ask, but my mind is still a bit out of sorts from all the dizziness I have been experiencing lately.
Get well soon, Faebro! We're all waiting right here for you! Be sure to get lots of rest!


Congratulations again on becoming an ArchKnight. I cannot wait to work with you! :)
Thanks, man! And I can't wait either!




deathlord45 -> RE: =MtAK= Rolling to an OOC Near You! (11/12/2013 23:10:30)

*shadow steps into the MtAK*
But I thought Death Stepped in! D:

Hey D! I actually decided to come help with the torture question asking this time.
The large club is in the corner, take a number and check your humanity at the door.

On to the questions and you might get a gift at the end.
Might? I'm already disinterested, sorry...

1. Have you ever read the Order of the Stick comics?
I can't say I have, are they good?

2. Have you played any of the Final Fantasy games?
I've played 4, 6 and 12 part 2 for the DS

3. If yes to number two then which was your favorite?
Probably four, I think...

4. Have you ever read the Sword of Truth/Golden Compass/Eragon books?
I've read the first three Eragon books ^^

5. Cookie, Cake, or Pie?
Cookies are a REALLY close second, but pie. Most definitely pie.

6. What is you favorite movie so far?
Already answered, kinda, but Scott Pilgrim Vs. the World

7. Do have any idea how many questions I might come up with?
Who knows, you're limited to 20, though ;)

8. Have you ever played anything from the Mana series?
I can't say that I have....

9. Why an armadillo?
Because they can roll into a ball and roll around, jump four feet in the air straight up, and inflate their stomachs and float down rivers on their backs. Not to mention they are incredibly cute. I love them.

Okay that should do for now. Though expect more next page *laughs evilly*
*Hides*

*vanishes leaving behind an ever filling box of whatever the answer to number 5 was*
Yay, Pie!!!!

Also congrats on becoming an AK D. I saw it coming.
Thanks man! (How do people say they saw this coming? ._. )




DaiTigris -> RE: =MtAK= Rolling to an OOC Near You! (11/13/2013 0:00:42)

Greetings Draketh and Good evening , day, night, dawn, or whatever time suits your fancy for the moment.
Night and evening always suit my fancy. Any other time of day I am in such denial to the fact that I'm awake that I simply won't acknowledge that those times of day exist. Evening and night are therefore the safest of bets.

I think I've seen you around from time to time I've poked my head in this nice cozy part of the forms.
I'd suppose my stealth mode isn't working as it's supposed to...

What is your favorite type of cookies and do you like hot chocolate?
Anything with peanut butter in them, and hot chocolate is wonderful ^^

How did you become an armadillo? They are cute little guys.
It's quite a long story, to be honest. A few teleportation mishaps here, a few genetic experiments there. Eventually whaddya know, I'm an armadillo!

Any reason you like the color purple? I personally prefer a nice green, but purple is nice too.
It's aesthetically appealing to me, and there are a lot of private jokes and inside stories associated with it. It's close to me now.

What kinds of discussions tend to catch your fancy?
All kinds! Though some of my favorites are the ones that challenge me or encourage me to think. I tend to be fairly right brained, so attempting to think of things just slightly beyond perception is always a fun exercise.

How long do you think your going to answer these questions for?
Until I feel the thread appears dead or I'm getting too many repeat questions.

Here, have a box of your favorite cookies and a mug of the finest hot chocolate for being Archknighted.
You are indeed too kind!

Well that is it, enjoy being an Archknight!
Thank you! I hope to!





Zyrain -> RE: =MtAK= Rolling to an OOC Near You! (11/13/2013 8:03:01)

Congratulations! *snugglehugs*
Thanks! *snugglehugs back*

*Zobby tries to roll around like the Armadillo but fails. :(*
*aids him in rolling like an armadillo until he gets it*

Good luck, and have fun! :)
Thank you! I look forward to talking to you more!




Stray Cat -> RE: =MtAK= Rolling to an OOC Near You! (11/15/2013 5:35:18)

HI HELLO DRAKETH
HELLO STRAY CAT!

Big congrats on the AKship! It's a super big shame I stepped down when I did and missed out on working with you. You've just signed up for one of the weirdest, most fulfilling jobs there are.
Many thanks for the congrats! And it is a shame Q_Q You would have been fun to work with! Also, I look forward to the weirdness, it's usually what makes a job worth it!

Best TV show on air this season?
Gah, that's a tough one... See I haven't actually had a chance to watch any of my favorite shows this season... Judging by the respective fanbase's reactions, though, it'd have to be a tie between Supernatural and The Walking Dead

What's a quote said by anyone real or fictional that sums you up?
"Wait, what was I burying?" — Yuno Gasai

You're doing a test on polynomials. You see this question: "Using De Moivre's theorem on rcis(x), prove the identity that cos(5x) = 8[cos(x)]^4 - 8[cos(x)]^2 + 1. Hence solve 8x^4 - 8x^2 + 1 = 0. Hence deduce an exact value for cos[(5pi)/8]." You...
...Google the instructions of each step extensively.

Tea or coffee or tea and coffee?
Most definitely tea, preferably green tea with jasmine. I don't drink coffee.

Do you have a favourite nail clipper? Honest question.
Honest answer? Probably my other hand. I pick at my nails enough that I don't really ever have to use nail clippers.

Congrats again, and best of luck!
Thank you! I look forward to the insanity I will experience here!

Yo, congrats on the AKship!
Heythanks!

A horse sized duck, honestly. There would be no better way to get to work.

The correct question is "would you rather fight 100 duck sized horses or 1 horse sized duck?" :P
It'd depend on which I had on hand, really small carrots or really big bread crumbs...

Who has the best custom avvy?
At first glance, I'm liking Stray Cat's. Though I miss the beautiful avvy of the Alec Triangle

Are you joining the purple army that now rules the forums? (I'm still faithful to my old hunter green)
My good sir, I've been part of this army for quite some time. Purple shall spread, ALL HAIL THE BENEVOLENT FAIRY QUEEN

Name 3 reasons why purple is the best color.

What is the best part of your overall forum experience?
The sheer variety of people to talk to and get perspective from, from all over the world, combined with nearly everyone having gaming as a common interest.

Who has asked the silliest questions so far?
It's a tough one... Though Skurge has caught my attention a good bit with his.

Anyway, congrats again! Protip: Keep a tally of repeated questions and see if you can beat my record (on the other hand I'm pretty sure I'm the only one who bothered to count :P). Also don't lock the thread before your head mod gets to ask questions. That remains awkward TO THIS DAY (sorry Eukky :( ).
Got it! I have a few ideas for once this thread dies.... And noted! I'll avoid that...

So I've had a quick scan through, just to make sure this question wasn't asked, but I'm sorry if it has already.
That's appreciated ^^

First off, congrats, I guess. It's a bit odd that we congratulate people when they achieve a position which is consistently stated as deserving no more recognition or praise than any other forumite. We're all the same, except some are a bit...more same...than others? You get my drift. ;)
Teeheeheehee~ Animal Farm..... I mean, thanks....?

Anyway, now to my question. Yep, just one.
Is it? Is it really?

Obviously, the OOC is a unique place. And what's very interesting is that it has changed almost more than any other place on the whole forum board. Even more so than the L&L, which has changed a lot. The changes are different though. Where the L&L changes were more structural and proved to create better organisation, the changes in the OOC changed what was discussed, how it was discussed, etc.
Aye it did.

Now, I don't know if you were in the OOC see during this particular time or not, but I remember it was a much busier place. This had its pros and cons. There was a lot more spam, and there was more aggressiveness (two names come to mind: Red Floyd and Onomatopoeia).
I will not refer nor respond to names, but I seem to recognize the OOC to which you're referring to.

Anyway, to my point. Since those changes the OOC has quieted down a lot, so much to the point where there really isn't too much going on in here at all. The main focus is in the Entertainment Forum section, and even there, it's only about four or five threads that regularly have conversation.
Conversation is a bit more organized and streamlined. Now those who would have typically only commented on entertainment oriented threads have a place to look for the threads they'd lean to.

So my question is, will there be anything that you hope to do to change this? That is, to make the OOC a more active and vibrant place, like it once was, but without the hostile atmosphere of the days of RF and Ono? Or do you see the way the OOC is now, the way it should be, and not attempt any sort of overhaul/reconstruction/major change?
Honestly, more activity is always a good thing, so long as it's kept in check and respectful. While the tendency exists for a place to become more lively with fewer restrictions, the inverse isn't the only way to increase activity. Going back to it, OOC activity would likely be generated through the combination of members willing to post and current events that we can talk about. Once we have a fine combination, then it has to be filtered through moderation. As it were, my job as an AK is to moderate and therefore filter content. Though viewing from the perspective of the bigger picture of the forums, it's my place as a forum member to find material to comment on and post about and do just that. Now, to answer your question, I'd like to do my part as a forum member to increase activity in the OOC, and also do my part as an AK to make sure that what activity we have is civil, respectful and productive.


EDIT: Just realised I'm kind of super late in posting this. Hopefully it's not too late though.
No, it's quite alright. I will likely be locking this thread soon, though.
