[COLOR=Dimgray][FONT=Tahoma][quote name='Daasheus']I hate people who try to convert you to Christianity,[/quote]I've helped introduce friends to Christianity before. Does that mean you hate me? Just because I got someone to convert? That's not fair at all! You don't even know me. [quote name='Daasheus']and people who unfairly judge everyone in a stereotype by the actions of a few.[/quote]Kind of like how you hate anyone who just wants to invite you to their church? I can understand if they keep on asking after you've said no but it sounds like if I even mentioned the word Jesus you'd stab me. Also, this reminds me of something else I dislike. When people who aren't Christian see evangelists on TV and just assume all Christians are like that. There are some pretty weird evangelists out there (I once saw a man carrying a sign that basically said "You're going to hell!" which definitely is not what God wants Christians to be telling others).[/FONT][/COLOR]

[COLOR=DimGray][quote name='r2vq][color=#007520']I don't even like Maple Syrup, eh. :( [/color][/quote] [FONT=Tahoma]I do. :whoops: I also enjoy hockey, lacrosse, snow (though I do get sick of it), beavers, toonies, and poutines. Poutines can be evil though, I only started eating them a while ago and I came to love them. Unfortunately you can basically buy a poutine anywhere in Canada (the movie theatre I work at even sells them) so I've been eating too many. >.>" Seriously, though. What grinds my gears is when you really look forward to a game and when you finally get your hands on it you find out it's horrible. Sucks to be disappointed[/FONT].[/COLOR]

[COLOR=DimGray][FONT=Tahoma]What grinds my gears? People who hate Canadians just [i]because[/i]. I mean, what the crap? :( Also: People who think that Americans are stupid just because some silly TV show finds dumb people on the street and asks them trivia. Couldn't you do that in any country and get the same results? >_> [b]EDIT:[/b] And I just now read Farto's post about Canadians. Basically you're saying that because 10% of the people in your school dislike americans so you're going to hate on their country of origin? Let me tell you. I was born and raised in Canada and I have lived here 16 years now. I can safely say the majority of Canadians I have met are really nice people. I realize you may have had a bad experience with Canadians but lets not go hating on 32,870,000 other people just because you met some jerks. Thanks.[/FONT][/COLOR]

Is it a competition? Is it trivia? Is it a scavenger hunt? Is it a picture caption game? A screen shot guessing game? The Big OtakuBoards Anime Event (or... BOBAE) is big for a reason. BOBAE is all of said events and more! [SIZE=4][FONT=Franklin gothic medium]How does it work?[/FONT][/SIZE] Every week (or sometimes every other week) a new round will begin ([b]NO SIGN-UPS REQUIRED[/b]). Each round will be totally different from the next (all revolve around anime) and will be competition-oriented. In one round I may want you to guess the different Animes from the different screen shots but in another I may need you to run to your local book store and take a picture of a certain Manga. When you win a round (more than one winner per round!) you get 2 points. If you win twice in a row the amount of points you get decreases (2nd win gets you 1.5 points, third and anything after gives you 1). [SIZE=4][FONT=Franklin gothic medium]Sounds cool, where do I sign up?[/FONT][/SIZE] That's the beauty. Anyone can enter and leave at any point in time. No sign ups are required at all. Your points will be waiting for you if you skip out a round. [SIZE=4][FONT=Franklin gothic medium]That's all![/FONT][/SIZE] Simple right? Any questions about BOBAE should be asked here. I'll also post an FAQ with important Q&A soon. BOBAE has started![/FONT] [SIZE=4][center][U][b]INDEX[/b][/U] [url=http://www.otakuboards.com/showthread.php?p=770405#post770405]Round 1[/url] [url=http://www.otakuboards.com/showpost.php?p=771155&postcount=62]Round 2[/url] [url=http://www.otakuboards.com/showthread.php?p=772096&posted=1#post772096]Round 3[/url][/center][/SIZE]

[font=tahoma][color=dimgray]Alright, I've had my fun. April Fools everyone! The real event will launch in a couple of days. :whoops: Here are some fun responses I got from this prank:[/font][/color] "You're going to get fired, dude." "Some people just don't share our sense of humour." "Wow.. uh... lots of typos." "You spelled OtakuBoards wrong in the thread title." [INDENT][SIZE=1][COLOR=DarkRed] You forgot one of the best responses, in my opinion:[QUOTE=Shy][size=1]White, you're fired. -Shy[/size][/QUOTE] :p ~indifference [/COLOR][/SIZE][/INDENT]

[quote name='Retribution][size=1']Don't be bitter cuz this rpg is teh pwnz.[/size][/quote] [quote name='Boo][size=1']Well, at least it's not an RPG. :)[/size][/quote] [img]http://www.orangelazarus.net/groupsounds/images/smilies/emot-iiam.gif[/img]

[COLOR=DimGray][FONT=Tahoma]I'd like to request a banner and avatar set for a future event I'll be doing. Acronym: BOBAE. Basically I just want an Anime collage that looks pretty. The avatar should say "BOBAE" either all caps or all lower letters. The banner should be 500x100 in dimension and have different Animes. It should also say "What is BOBAE?" and "Click here." somewhere. Make it prominent. I'd do it myself but I'm preoccupied. [/FONT][/COLOR]

[img]http://img511.imageshack.us/img511/3036/aprilgk0.png[/img] (cool logo, lol) I kinda just through this together in like 10 mins lolz [COLOR=DimGray] [FONT=Tahoma] THE NEW OTAKUBORADS EVENT All you have to do to enter is make a sign up with name and age (use you're screenname if yu want) and when every joins will knoe what is it!! It's amystery for now!! :) :) sign up![/FONT][/COLOR]\ EDIT: AND you must write 10 paragrpahs about your grade 3 life. all questions should be asked here.

[COLOR=DimGray][FONT=Tahoma]What~! That's so cool. Man, do one for all the members. :D Seriously, that's pretty sweet. I've always wanted to draw members of OB in an anime style but I can't draw so that idea kind of went down the drain. But you can draw! So it works! I really like the weapons you guys are wielding. Especially the giant lock (which I guess is nothing special) and the mod rod (which I think looks awesome). That Mod Rod really does look vicious. I can't wait to see the Ban Hammer for when you draw Desbreko, James and Dagger. *hint hint*[/FONT][/COLOR]

[COLOR=DimGray][FONT=Tahoma]I disagree. PS3 may not dominate like PS2 did but it will still do well. With games like Home and LittleBigPlanet coming out there are still plenty of reasons to buy a PS3. Just not at the price it's currently selling at.[/FONT][/COLOR]

[quote name='Jakehammaren]Honestly, I'm far too tired to read the rest of the posts, so I don't know what everyone has been saying, but I for one will say that it was absolutely [I]horrible[/I']. There's no way around it, TMNT sucked. Perhaps I'll explain tomorrow. Perhaps not. It was an awful movie, which sucks, because I grew up on the Teenage Mutant Nija Turtles and it's sad to see the latest was such an abomination.[/quote] [COLOR=DimGray][FONT=Tahoma]Well, I don't know what you were expecting. I mean, before anything else it's a [b]kids[/b] movie. It's not going to have some deep, intense plot. It won't be a 3 hour long adventure like LotR. Kids will fall asleep. I don't mean to single you out or anything, I'm just curious about [i]why[/i] you think it was such a disaster.[/FONT][/COLOR]

[COLOR=DimGray][FONT=Tahoma]Oh man, Zeke, that's awesome. xD Here's my lyrics for the chorus and bridge:[/FONT][/COLOR] [center][u]Chorus[/u] The Titans! (they have beat them all!) As you can see... When we fight our opponents flee! The Titans! Oooh, they're the best team or at least so it seems. The Titans! (they have beat them all!) A fearless crew... Our record shows this is true. We're so great; you just ask Boo. The Ti-tans! They have beat them all! They have beat them all (yeah). [u]Bridge[/u] They have beat them all. They have beat them all! Yeah![/center]

[COLOR=DimGray][FONT=Tahoma]Screw it. After seeing the movie a couple days ago I can safely say that making it in CG was a good move. I freaking loved it. As far as resembling the cartoons go, it matches the first one more than it does the new one. The humor is very similar to how it was in the comics (Michelangelo has a very Surfer (as apposed to Skater) personality again) but it doesn't really work as well as it did back then. However it still had its funny moments. Man, I love Michelangelo. lol As far as the four turtles sharing the spotlight goes, Leo and Raph kind of overshadow Don and Mikey but only to a certain extent. You still see that ninja family theme portrayed pretty well. If I were you I would wait until it comes out on DVD to see it. However, if you love the turtles like I do, see it now. It's so great. :][/FONT][/COLOR]

[QUOTE=Gavin][SIZE=1]Interesting, most interesting. Personally like Sandy I'd let off a good phlegmy one right on top of Hanabishi Recca purely because he judges people based off of their appearance rather than their personality. I've met plenty of fat people [hell I used to be one] and plenty of thin people, and in my experience, thin people are worse jerks than fat people. [/SIZE][/QUOTE] [COLOR=DimGray][FONT=Tahoma]Wait, so now you're saying that because I'm thin that makes me a jerk? Isn't that what Hanabishi Recca was saying? [spoiler]Aha, I'm just kidding. I know what you meant.[/spoiler] :whoops: No, it's not you Forgotten. I don't even know you, lol. The quest for who White would spit on continues!

[quote name='Kenshin DX][COLOR=DarkSlateBlue']The only thing I hated in the last PM was the dialogue. But I can look over that if the combat system and puzzle elements are as great as they look. This game , Mario Galaxy, and Brawl are making me extremely glad I got Wii.[/COLOR][/quote] [COLOR=DimGray][FONT=Tahoma]Actually the story, apparently, still has that Paper Mario charm in it as you can visit towns to talk to NPCs, buy items and just really get into the game. I'm so excited about this. I've never played a platformer where you get items and levels [i]with[/i] puzzles to boot.[/FONT][/COLOR]

[COLOR=DimGray][FONT=Tahoma]Something Pokemon-y. Bright colours. Lots of blue (as that's the team colour). Nothing dark or depressing. Go nuts. That's what I think, anyway.[/FONT][/COLOR]

[QUOTE=BKstyles][FONT=Tahoma]Alright, Zeke will be on GFX duty. She'll take care of the presentation for the song, and anything else that ya feel will enhance our overall outlook. =) Before we start deciding who does what verse or whatever method we should use to get the actual song written, let's decide where our names should be mentioned. We could either include them all within the chorus, or dedicate sections of each verse to us, giving us a miniature description as well. Like for Verse 1, the first 2 lines can be dedicated to myself with a short description of me, maybe talking about me being the captain or what have you. Then the next two lines dedicated to Beth, the next two to Mary, etc. Following this pattern, it leave the last 5 lines of verse 2 open for a collective description of us as a team which will lead into the bridge and final 2 choruses. In this case, the chorus should be something powerful that encompasses our dominance, something clever and truthful. [/FONT][/QUOTE] [COLOR=DimGray][FONT=Tahoma]Sounds good. Dunno if it's necessary to mention you being the captain, though. Then we would have to mention SunfallE was and so on and so forth. Too much work. Anyway, just assign me some lines and as soon as the person before me submits theirs I'll write mine. Also, I think we should put our names in our own lines. Kind of like the DK Rap. :O! Maybe we should to the DK Rap! :P[/FONT][/COLOR]

[COLOR=DimGray][FONT=Tahoma]We should talk about how we've already won the challenge and how we did it. [/FONT][/COLOR]

[quote name='Aaryanna][COLOR=DarkRed']I take it back, I'd spit on anyone who would spit on a dog. :p[/COLOR][/quote] [COLOR=DimGray][FONT=Tahoma]Ah, you know I'm just kidding, Aaryanna. ;) Oh and I thought of someone else I'd spit on. A member of OtakuBoards, even! I'm not going to say who but I would spit on them given the chance.[/FONT][/COLOR]

[QUOTE=DeadSeraphim][COLOR=Indigo][SIZE=1][FONT=Arial] Despite the fact that OB8 is planned to be 1024 res., you're being a bit rude here. The proportion of internet users still on 800x600 is still much larger than you'd expect, just because you're a tech savvy internet nerd doesn't mean the rest of the world has caught up. I mean, jeez, only a few years ago Windows 98 was still the most widely used Operating System on the net. Progress isn't as fast as you think when your perspective is distorted by your own experience.[/FONT][/SIZE][/COLOR][/QUOTE] [COLOR=DimGray][FONT=Tahoma]I [i]wish[/i] I was a tech savvy internet nerd. Maybe we should take a poll to see how many of the active OBers use at least 1024x780. And sorry, Dead. I didn't mean to come off as rude.[/FONT][/COLOR]

[COLOR=DimGray][FONT=Tahoma]Just to give you guys an idea of how easy it would be to change the lyrics to ones of our own, here are the words to the Pokemon Theme Song. [/FONT][/COLOR] [center][b]POKEMON THEME (extended version)[/b] [u]Verse 1[/u] I wanna be the very best like no one ever was. To catch them is my real test, To train them is my cause. I will travel across the land, searching far and wide. Each Pokemon to understand the power that's inside. [u]Chorus[/u] Pokemon (gotta catch 'em all)! It's you and me. I know it's my destiny... Pokemon! Oooh, you're my best friend in a world we must defend. Pokemon (gotta catch 'em all)! A heart so true. Our courage will pull us through. You teach me and I'll teach you, Po-ke-mon! Gotta catch 'em all! Gotta catch 'em all (yeah). [u]Verse 2[/u] Every challenge along the way with courage I will face. I will battle every day to claim my rightful place. Come with me, the time is right, there's no better team. Arm in arm we'll win the fight. It's always been our dream! [u]Chorus[/u] Pokemon (gotta catch 'em all)! It's you and me. I know it's my destiny... Pokemon! Oooh, you're my best friend in a world we must defend. Pokemon (gotta catch 'em all)! A heart so true. Our courage will pull us through. You teach me and I'll teach you, Po-ke-mon! Gotta catch 'em all! Gotta catch 'em all (gotta catch 'em all). [u]Bridge[/u] Gotta catch 'em all. Gotta catch 'em all! Yeah! [u]Chorus[/u] Pokemon (gotta catch 'em all)! It's you and me. I know it's my destiny... Pokemon! Oooh, you're my best friend in a world we must defend. Pokemon (gotta catch 'em all)! A heart so true. Our courage will pull us through. You teach me and I'll teach you, Po-ke-mon! Gotta catch 'em all! Gotta catch 'em all! Pokemon![/center]

[COLOR=DimGray][FONT=Tahoma][quote name='Kei][color=darkblue][size=1]As it stands now, the Community Events forum stays pretty stagnant for a while after an event until the next one comes along. Maybe setting up a system where there's an event every two or so months could help? *shrugs*[/size'][/color][/quote] Not really. We had two events in a row (in fact they overlapped at one point) and it's only been a month since the Nifty Fifty ended. Also, how [i]old[/i] is your monitor? O_o [b]2) What new sites would you add to the OB Network?[/b] I think it'd be neat to have an official review site. I know we're anime-based but it could be for Anime, Manga [i]and[/i] Games. I'm sure you could find plenty of people willing to contribute and help out with it. Just a thought. :)[/FONT][/COLOR]

[COLOR=DimGray][FONT=Tahoma]I can't believe people are still talking about MySpace. Don't you guys know that [color=royalblue][B]facebook.com[/B][/color] is all the rage now? MySpace is old news. Seriously, I'm not being sarcastic. It is. I've got some questions for you all to answer. Why did you join Facebook? Got any OBers on your Facebook? Do you like it more than MySpace? Why do you think more people like Facebook than MySpace now? As for me, I have one OBer on my Facebook. Retribution. PM me if you want my name or something. Obviously I like it way more than MySpace. MySpace like... pressured you to have a cool looking page. Everything is so simple on Facebook and it just makes life easier. Also, what are some groups you guys are in? :whoops:[/FONT][/COLOR]

[COLOR=DimGray][FONT=Tahoma]Can I get extra cool points for being Canadian? Please? Oh man. Can I just say I'm sick of people saying Dragon Warrior "just cause he's funny." I can understand if you've talked to the guy but the same people who talk about not choosing members because of their status choose Gav just because he makes funny posts. [i]So[/i] not cool. Anyway, one of my favourite members has got to be Dragon Warrior. He's just so hillarious. But I actually talk to him. For like a year now! I know! Charles is definitely number one on my list, though. He's so much fun to talk to and I love his attitude towards... everything. Reminds me of Brasil, who I miss dearly. :([/FONT][/COLOR] [size=1][right][color=#ededed]You found an invitation, la de dah. PM me to join my secret club. Though nobody has found on of these suckers in like 3 months so I doubt anyone will ever read this. This is why I'm making it so long this time. Maybe it'll make it easier for people to find.[/color][/right][/size]
