Hi, I'm Rydian.

Staff and I talked. Furry shit's not going to be punished simply for being furry, it'll be treated like other stuff now (meaning if it's spam or adult or actually violates the rules or purposely causes a disruption it'll be removed, but stuff won't be removed/locked just for being furry anymore). <span style="text-decoration: line-through;">And in exchange I'll stop humping every leg in sight.</span>

Turns out a chunk of staff wasn't even aware that this was going on (they're not all moderating the whole forum, Costello runs the site and AW runs mag staff for example and such and many mods are sectional), whereas I thought it was a staff decision as a whole, and I also felt threatened because of actions against me around when I first joined (but the person responsible has apologized)... Well we had a long discussion (like, multi-week long) about it to give everybody a chance to chip in, and I think everything's going to be fine now (though I had one of my patented bitchfits early on). I didn't talk about it with staff earlier 'cause I was afraid I was being exempted or something for my contributions as mag staff, and I knew I was going to have to stop being mag staff when I got too busy.

So we're cool. I think.

Also before somebody asks why I'm not mag staff anymore, it's 'cause I'm pretty busy with class stuff, I'm getting into the last stages of this course and I can't just breeze through it anymore (as well I'm still doing a work study with the IT staff there)... so I don't think I have enough time to contribute properly while still doing what I do on the forums, but that's not to say I won't still try to do a writeup every now and then.


Now onto the actual blog-type aspects.

  • In my spare time I've been playing Terraria more. Did I mention most public servers suck ass? I probably should mention that, because they suck ass.

  • I totally made my first Let's Play, of Terraria. It's my first so don't expect anything amazing, I got kinda' bored when I hit the jungle area.

  • The Work Study at the college is pretty interesting. I mean yeah I get the crappy jobs like tweaking settings on over 60 laptops, but I also get to see cool stuff, and I'm learning while I'm there, and I like the people. And hey, I'm getting paid. I mean it's like 7.25 an hour, but that's a fuckton better than 0 an hour.

  • Got registered for the fall semester, I'm excited about it, though my work load might be large... it depends on how the classes are run.

  • I've decided to grow my hair out now to a normal length instead of shaving it all the time.

  • I totally got that new computer built. Only thing that's left to upgrade is the processor, but I'm limited to LGA 775 so I'm undecided as to what would be the best upgrade from my E6300 that wouldn't cost $300. When I upgrade the processor I'm going to put the old one back in my old computer, throw a harddrive in it, and try to sell it locally. I'm torn between a high-clocked C2D for emulation purposes (my current's not good enough for PS2 and GC/Wii smoothly), or a lower-clocked C2Q for general purposes.

Glad to have you back, broski.

I've missed seeing your flash cart chart. :P

Don't just grow your hair to a normal length, grow it long. A crew cuts OK, but long flowing locks are the sign of a real man.[/quote]I'll see how it works before deciding to grow it really long. Here's a video I made a few years ago to show a comparison.

Welcome Back Rydian! You were missed by many :rolleyes:.
Now you can start yelling again at people who deserve it, thats what i've missed :3 :tpi: :creep:
 
The Temp is glad to have ya back man. It's good that you're making progress in your life. Despite the workload of yours, always remember to visit the temp every now and then(if it isn't already 2nd nature).

What happened to me in the time you were gone?
Depravo took my sig T^T
 
Welcome back, Rydian!
I knew you'd be back, somehow. The only person I know well who has escaped the Temp is probably monkat, but even he lurks and posts at times.

In other news: I got mah 500 posts, and I am now GBAtemp's Rainbow (in the EOF (I would probably get banned if I posted in rainbow everywhere (probably by p1ngpong (because he has no soul (:creep:)))))

Also, here's a CPU under 300 bucks that may be of interest: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx...N82E16819116371

  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    i thought everybody knew cocktails are like 75% ice
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Yeah but not like this.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's not like they're complaining that their Slurpee is 99% ice or something, but if the cocktail calls for "shot of vodka, shot of vermouth, shot of gin, shot of Campari, three shots of juice, squirt of lemon" and ends up being a thimbleful of booze, that's a problem.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    the funny thing is cocktails in norway are only allowed to have 1 20ml shot of booze
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    so..... yeah
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    we're used to only having a thimbleful of booze
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Booo.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    same thing if you want whisky on the rocks or something, you can't get a double
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but you could buy as many shots of whisky (or anything else) as you want and ask for a glass of ice and pour them in
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    it's dumb
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Maybe.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    There was a comparison of the number of Ibuprofen poisonings before and after they limited the maximum dosage per box or per pill (i'll look that up). No limit on the number of boxes you can still buy as many as you want, so people argued it was pointless.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    But the number of (accidental) poisonings dropped because drinking an entire package of ibuprofen pills went from "I need a new liver" to "I need a new box of Ibuprofen".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Here we have ketoprofen that used to be prescription-only because of the risk of toxic dosages, but then they halved the dose per pill and sell them in bottles of six pills apiece instead of twenty and it doesn't need a prescription any more. Yes you can buy more than one bottle but people simply don't.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Usually accidentally overdose of ibuprofen here is from people taking like cold medicine then ibuprofen for a headache and the combination is over what they need
