If you're gong to include old waveman, you might as well bring back the WAYPASTCOOL Sanic wavebikes, as opposed to the slow ones we have now.

The old wavebikes were what made MM5WAV cool, and I was very disappointed to see them go.

I got multiple boxes of Chaotic TCG stuff as a gift after the company that made them died, so I'm kinda locked in regarding card games.

Whenever someone invites me to play Magic with their deck I always lose due to mana screw or otherwise getting the worst possible cards. (Yes, the decks are shuffled properly.)

Quote from: "Knux"
There is no Missile Launcher on Hard Mode. Now I can never beat Ballos's 3rd form if I ever decide to run through Bloodstained Sanctuary.  :cry:  I'd probably not make it past the falling blocks anyway.

Pretty sure Ballos is still doable without the Missile Launcher; hard, but doable. Incidentally, the main walkthrough that CaveStory.com recommended before it vanished had you just face the Butes and spam them with normal Spur shots, letting Curly kill Ballos for you. The main problem (along with Heavy Press) would be the second form, since it's big, has a lot of health, and the main strategy for that is standing in a hole in its hitbox and unloading half your missiles into the exposed eye.

MM4SKU is the way it is because it's a remake of MAP01 of Dwango5. That is a very old map. It's also a classic, though, so I'd rather dislike any changes from that.

Well this thread got interesting fast.

Still not sure if whydee is trolling or not though.

I find this thread to be a profoundly bad idea. First, basing something off Reddit is automatically a bad idea in my opinion, since Reddit is Exhibit A for "the internet makes you stupid." Second, the Internet is the worst possible place for life counseling. Plenty of news stories about that, though this comes to mind immediately.

Also, I'd recommend against going near the Coliseum in the next forever, as early revives are back.

I made an NU team. It's probably awful, considering I don't even know how typing works.

First of all, thank you for responding, Korby.

Quote from: "Korby"
While I appreciate the comments, I'm not 100% innocent in this.

for the league chat kick, I could have sworn "[4/24/2013 8:32:03 PM] *** Balrog has changed the conversation picture. ***" was to something pornographic, but I can't really find evidence to show otherwise. In fact, the only evidence I found seems to go against what I think. I just don't think I said "no" to your question[even though it was the correct answer.]

Granted, my memory kind of sucks, so I really won't be able to say much about that, but I'll post what came after it.

(click to show/hide)
It wasn't. I distinctly remember that I changed it to a crop of the image that was linked. Said crop is both my current Steam profile picture and the picture for the CutStuff LoL group I started to try and get everyone on everyone's friends list.

Quote from: "Korby"
Not going to lie, I did used to tend to plot to kick people on Skype, so Swiss isn't entirely wrong about that.

He is, however, wrong about me kicking everyone I dislike. While I won't name names on the forums to prevent possible problems, I could name quite a few people in many chats who exist despite me not reveling in their presence.
Well, that's nice to know. Thanks for clearing that up.

Quote from: "Korby"
I do not, however, recall implying that you were an idiot. Would you mind showing me where I did that?
In addition, for a thread that's centered around evaluating my forum moderation, a lot of this seems to be about Skype.
My second post in this thread, second spoiler, me trying to figure out why you kicked me from the main chat. Specifically:
Code: [Select]
[4/28/2013 4:18:32 PM] Onigiri: growing tired of your shenanigans
[4/28/2013 4:18:48 PM] Balrog: what about the shenanigans of
[4/28/2013 4:18:50 PM] Balrog: everyone else
[4/28/2013 4:18:58 PM] Onigiri: tolerable
[4/28/2013 4:19:14 PM] Balrog: I don't even shenanigan that often
[4/28/2013 4:19:17 PM] Onigiri: everyone else is like one of those stupidly annoying auto-faucets that stays on for a bit then turns off
To me this implied that I was being dumb constantly, while everyone else was only dumb occasionally. (That little "I wanted to do that for a while now" comment you posted also drives me to eyebrow-raising, but I missed out on that until now.) The Skype focus was, well, because Skype logs were all I had knowledge of. The whole point of this thread was to smoke out anyone who felt wronged by you, so they could go public with their experiences and as a community we could figure out what's what. So far you're looking great.

Quote from: "Kapus"
Okay, so...

This topic is asking if we think Korby is doing a good job at moderating the forums. I would say yes. He does a good job at patrolling and keeping things in order, and I can't think of any times offhand that he has acted out of line.

Skype chats are a completely different entity, though, and shouldn't really have any impact on the forum. Korby's mannerisms are a bit different on skype, and sometimes I think he can act a little bit rude or unfriendly possibly due to grudges or something, but I haven't seen any of that affect his forum duties. And as a close friend, I can tell you that, all things considered, Korby means well. He's a good person.

I could speak about his modding behaviors in various skype chats, but I know very little about those chats and their rules/customs, and they have no relevance to his forum modding as far as I can tell.
So, you're saying that Korby has a short fuse in Skype chats but otherwise is quite nice? That lines up well with what's been posted here. It's a bit like how I'm a jokester in forum games, in-game chat, and (yes) Skype chat but quickly straighten up and fly right when it becomes necessary. (For examples, see the last few drama-laden threads I've had a stake in.)

I'd say that this thread is running its course. I'd recommend leaving it open at least until Monday afternoon to make sure everyone sees it, but if a "smoking gun" doesn't appear in that time I don't see the point of continuing. (Don't lock it right now, though.)

I really don't get the justice here. What happened, again? Really.
What happened was I asked a question. Then I got kicked.

Quote from: "Rozark Kyouko"
Hoo-Hah!

You see Balrog, you and Swiss have an amazing history of posting intolerable porn numerous times when we told you not to do so, among other things. The kicks were justified and you're just being butthurt over this.
Oops, I guess I should have published the actual link. Here's the bit prior to what I posted earlier:
(click to show/hide)
So, not porn. Just an innocent image macro that I asked an innocent question about.

Looking back, yes, the other kick was justified. The only reasons I mentioned it was for continuity with Swiss' conversation and because of the subsequent conversation with Korby, in which he seemingly expressed an opinion that I was an idiot and implied that he would kick me if I was ever invited to the main chat again.

Quote from: "Ceridran"
For Wheelie*, one of the kicks was over posting a Board Game Online link. For Balrog, one of the kicks was over asking if something was a Lucky Star Photoshop. I question what it's supposed to be that he addresses, but.. Eh. Sure, other kicks likely are justified, but those two have little reason behind them.
Exactly. For my part, I'm trying to get people to give their experiences.

EDIT: Actually, why don't we hear Korby's end of this? Might clear this up faster.

EDIT TWO: Rozark, the context for the former was a conversation about an image that someone had linked to. The context for the latter was me asking why I was kicked from the main chat.

MM8BDM Discussion / BE VIGILANT: Wallhack discovered
« on: October 20, 2013, 12:57:25 PM »
http://zandronum.com/forum/showthread.php?tid=3704

I have a feeling that much like Unix (who was banned from Zandronum for harassing staff) wallhackers will be trying to keep to MM8BDM out of a perception that MM8BDM players are too dumb to know what to do in situations like this. Can't have that, can we?
