Alot of us say things on here that we will never forget.
They were either really mean, extremely funny, or downright stupid.
So heres the thread that will collaborate some of the best quotes in the Temps history!
I have a couple from the TaeWong days, such as
"Bad children play in casinos and speak swear words."
Or "Resident Evil Makes My PeePee place go boing"

What about yall? What do yall remember most?

Not sure if I should be taking my inclusion on that one as a compliment or not. Do me a favour and remove my blog from that. I post it here because it allows me to clear my head since nobody involved can read it and misunderstand my intentions (you all remember why Hitomi163 left) but if it's proliferating beyond this site then there's more of a chance that a misunderstanding could occur like it did with Hitomi. I don't mind my random comments with no bearing on my life or that of others don't bother me, keep as many of them as you want. But nothing that mentions my friends directly, ok? Hope that's ok.

I'm not sure if you're aware of this...but you most certainly posted your story in a place where those involved could read it. The "general off-topic chat" section is not locked away from visitors/guests. One of the perils of putting your shit out there for everyone to see...

The difference is that none of my friends visit here. This is my private haven where I can air my thoughts and get some perspective. Usually with major issues I simply bounce them off friends not involved in the current situation, but it often helps to get perspective from people completely outside the situation. Everyone knows not to come here as it's what I need just for me. Whereas with Twitter they could easily stumble across it and a misunderstanding occurs which is more trouble than I need right now. Hence why I control my online presence and why I need people not to take liberties with my blogs.

I understand where you're coming from and all, but I think you're overreacting just a little bit. Your friends have the same chances of stumbling across GBATemp as they do stumbling across the Twitter account, and generally people use Twitter to follow people/things they're aware of, not randomly coming across a page and investigating every link posted. In fact, I'd be willing to bet there's more of a chance they come across GBATemp than the Twitter account. I get you don't want some people invading in on your blog and such, but posting it on a forum in a section where any unregistered member can view it wasn't exactly the best way to do it.

My friends are all well aware of my presence here and why I come here. They won't stumble across anything here because they know not to come here, they have no business here anyway, I'm the only serious gamer of the group. Whereas Twitter proliferates wildly, there's no telling where anything could end up. I'd rather things were reasonably stable where I know where my words end up. If people want to quote things I say at random that don't make mention of my companions, go ahead if you find it amusing. The quotes on Rydian's list I don't mind, they're simple jokes that are purely for entertainment purposes that couldn't possibly offend anyone. But I don't think it's too much to ask that if someone wants to add a clearly personal story to their own list of stuff they at least seek my permission first.

As for posting in an unsecured area, to my knowledge there IS no 'secured' area at this time aside from the trding forum, which is hardly the place. Once the blogs area is revived and assuming it's not accessible to non-members, I'll return to posting there for control over my articles.

Might I suggest posting your blogs in multi-recipient PM's to the people you care to hear from until an appropriate section is made available? I have no problem with your stories ending up in gotc because I can just skip over them, but to suggest that someone is invading your privacy by quoting a silly comment of yours is ridiculous considering you're the one who let it loose on the masses. You should keep in mind that 1) no one cares who said what and when 2) you can't possibly hurt your reputation among the people who are most likely to ever see that quote and follow the link required to discover who wrote it. Though, I can foresee a blog where Guild is being brought to task for someone...somehow...stumbling across a mind-numbingly random twitter account and assaulting you in some way.

    Thanks mate.
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    I used to drink alcohol fairly often. Never to the point of it being a problem, but like 2-3 beers with dinner each night, or a few cocktails or glasses of Scotch or something. Started smoking/vaping weed a lot a few years back which killed 90% of my interest in booze. Now I stopped smoking/vaping weed as much and just deal with life the boring way most of the time

    I only drank alcohol once and it was by accident
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    I didnt know it was beer, it was on a juice bottle
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Yeah, I'm addicted to smoking, sadly. It's very addictive but I wish I didn't start.

    @SylverReZ, you played that Mario flash game called Mario 63?
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, No, but I've seen it on Vinesauce's stream.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, that game is one of the reasons i met newgrounds bc the full versión of it is in that site
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    Also somebody is remaking it
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, the other game where I found newgrounds is new york shark

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Spoke to Tom Fulp the other day, if he can find his old Newgrounds site content like the mini Flash animations from the 2000's that played on the portal.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    So far no response, but he did say that he'll find them. Wayback Machine doesn't have em.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, atleast the 1999 versión of pico's school is avaliable (the difference between it, the 2006 versión and the 2016 versión is that the speed of the game depends of the speed of your computer and that it had the og soundtrack)
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, Another being Pico VS Bear, the original 1999 version before Jim Henson filed a DMCA takedown.

  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    The 2006 versión was made when the flash portal was made
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Many people thought it was lost, but was discovered that he hid it on the same page.
  • Xdqwerty @ Xdqwerty:
    @SylverReZ, although the "secrets" system where the game was has been removed. Also pico vs uberkids had a netplay versión that was shutdown, although the swf file has been found
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Xdqwerty, Nope. There are two download buttons on the same page, where you can download the original under a file called "bear.exe". "bear2.exe", however, is the updated game in a Flash projector.
