Quote from Knightzomegaz

Ehh, didn‘t she say that she‘s just giving her 2 cents about it, so why would you reply to her like that, huh..

My apologies I didn't mean to sound condescending. Thank goodness there is a knight here.

Haha, no need to apologize to me, I am the one who should be apologizing for butting in, well, I do admire her...
So, I‘m sorry too...^^

Well, LawX, that's the hazard of posting on the internet; people tend to automatically assume you're being defensive and are offended if you don't use gratuitous emoticons, or otherwise make it blatantly obvious that you're not trying to be a big, fat meanie.

Actually, scratch that last part. Now that I think about it, there was this one time I responded to someone whilst busting rhymes at an 80% success-rate in an effort to make a fun, non-abrasive response, yet I was still pegged as 'offended', so I guess you just need the emotiocons.

Observe:

"I'm not worried about it, either way it doesn't concern you."

UACCEPTABLE! Brrrr! How cold and indifferent!

Eeeeemoticon-me, regularsharp!

🤣 🤣 🤣 I'm not worried about it 🤣 🤣 🤣 either way it doesn't concern you~♥ 😳 😳 😳

ACCEPTABLE! INTERNET APPROVED!! THIS MESSAGE IS NOW HAPPIER THAN RICHARD SIMONS SHITTING A RAINBOW WHILE RIDING A PINK PONY INTO A GAY BAR!!

...as for who I admire, ummmmmmmmmmmmm... let's go with BlackOrion. Yeah, that oughta keep 'im off the ledge for a few more days, I guess.

...

What? Don't give me that look; I'm only kidding about the ledge thing, honest!!

...honest...

...

No really, I'm kidding, but in all seriousness, BlackOrion's come a long way as far as penning his thoughts in English. Before, his posts were a MESS; a veritable MESS complete with typos, improper syntax, basic grammar issues, and poor spelling. A mess!

But I can see that nowadays, he's making an effort to type like a proper person, and I'll unsarcastically admire anyone who can express their thoughts in multiple languages. I mean, I can't, so I think it's impressive.

lol. Trust me, they know who they are if I've been talking to them for 6 years, and counting. I don't want to point out specific people because then it starts feeling like a popularity contest, based on past experience.

Yeah, it'd be pretty silly not to acknowledge such a lengthy internet friendship.
To the people involved, it's obvious.

Aside from the people who know who they are (;p), the members whose posts I used to admire are no longer active (like pearlesque). Such a shame, too, because I really enjoyed reading their posts and view on things.

Hrodulf and Bjornolfr, you will not be forgotten.

It's cool, I already know I'm your fav~! Fav monkey that is~ ;3 Unless you've met someone new.. </3

They know who they are! Yes, you! And you! Definitely you too. <3

Oh, I know this is about forums and she's not really active anymore but I've always loved and admire akari_mizunashi's manga reviews. <3

I have to thank you again. It's been a while since I've had this much d**k on my computer. :'3

So, I‘m sorry too...^^

I really do love sarcasm...

To stay on topic, I'll just echo the six years jargon. But mostly because it would be embarrassing if I forgot a name, and also, it's 9:30 in Osaka and I have an unfathomable desire to make pancakes.

Reviews of my Work:
You are kind of boring - Blackorion
Congratulations! Ur an asshole! - tokyo_homi
**Your awesome!!! **- Cherelle_Ashley
NightSwan also said that she wanted to peg me, once, but I'm not sure whether to take that as a compliment or a threat...

Myself.

These are people I kinda admire, for some reasons . :
kitty1826x I fell for the pp, I love the humor in those comics, and she's one active member.
tsubamex She gives many manga recommendations, and I love that. I don't even remember most of the manga titles I've read.
Lorska His lists! it's like a refreshment booth ^^
tripitaka the posts he made are great, detailed, and helpful.
sunder Seinen, I seek that in him. Not many people (not at all IRL actually) I know read them. so u see..

Thanks, I actually learned English on the internet, so it's pretty obvious why i sucked so bad at it. With time and by reading manga, books, and writing on forums and image-boards i think i had come a long way. Currently I'm studying German but there aren't as many resources on-line as there were for English (for obvious reasons of course)

Quote from BlackOrion

Even so, If I really had to chose, I think Identity Crisis and whatnot are pretty cool, but they don't post much any more.

What. I... uh... I was not expecting anyone to mention me. Especially since I post for pretty much only moderation reasons or site polls these days. I don't really know much of you, but that is probably a good thing since all the people I remember from recent times are because they get reported.

Hmm. Who I admire, huh? Putting aside the people I used to talk to for almost my entire time here, a few come to mind. Xtr3m3dude was someone who's posts I usually actually read through. Loosecannon504 was always pretty amusing. True_grave_unit also struck me as a decent poster. I've been pretty inactive on the forums the past 2 1/2 to 3 years though, due to a few things, so I don't really know many of the new posters.

Quote from Crenshinibon

I really do love sarcasm...

I love you, Papa. Your daughter awaits your return. I will hug you and then ultimately squeeze you to death.

Quote from Pocono

Myself.

You scare me. D:

You are like the dense main character in a shoujo manga.

Quote from Crenshinibon

And you will murder someone one day, pika. If you're my daughter.

Quote from Identity Crisis

Loosecannon504 was always pretty amusing.

LOOSY. I miss his seizure inducing gifs. <3 They were so great, I still love how they offended so many.

I always did say you Supah Mods were much better than the Mini Mods. :'D <3 Like where would this forum be without blak's swift locking ninja skills?? Nowhere, I say. A swipe of his cape and he's right there in our times of trouble. The true people we should admire! The newbs will never learn of all your greatness! sniff

Kashi! I can't believe you are still alive.

WHAT. Mini mods were the best okay. ;_; Do you know how many times I had to chew people out in the recruitment forum?! Madness!

@Kashi: <3! You're alive! I haven't talked to you in forever. 🤣

To stay on topic, yes, the staff here at MangaUpdates are pretty awesome. They are responsible and so dedicated to the job! So glad to have had the opportunity to be part of the staff and talk to everyone.
