And Tofu, I sorta forgot to post random facts on my time off. Sue me.

And now, for the most spamalicious of questions (Since I'm SURE that my notes have more spam than even Gaxey's does)...

All Admins
If you could will any game into existence, be it MMO, single player, whatever, what would it be?

Kaolian
Where does your fear of those eight legged freaks stem from, if you know?



I did already!

PONG: The MMO! There would only be two classes, but the loot drops would be EPIC!

Actually, i have thought of a MMO Idea that would work great if they could ever get the licensing figured out. Highlander: the MMO. Start a server back at the dawn of civilization, and have the world "grow" on an accelerated timeline. You start as a non immortal, and can play as one until you get killed or die of old age. if you die, you have a chance of becoming an immortal and PVP only. All crafting and tradeskills would be done by non-immortals, but your characters would not last long. Periodically your non immortal character would die of old age and you would inherit property, etc, with a random element. All this time the world files would be changing. Rome would start as a mud brick villiage and grow over 4 or 5 months to the heart of an empire. America would be colonized etc. Certian actions would be able to alter the world, and potentially rewrite history. (duel on holy ground and blow up new amsterdam, world goes a different direction. Each server would be its own world, and would rapidly move from the past to the present. Once the server got to within a set period of time, the quickening would kick in and no more immortals would be created. All existing immortals would then battle for supremacy on that server, old accounts not logged in would be purged, and eventually one person would emerge as a winner and the server would be shut down and restarted. So it would be a MMO with a set ending, winner would get something cool on the new server, maybe immortallized as a NPC? I dunno. would be hell to balance and pull off, but I see it as a genre shattering game if they could.

Edit: oops, forgot. I was almost bitten by a black widpow when I was 12. I was almost bitten by a brown recluse at 18. It aint parinoia if the lil ******* are out to get you...

Yes he does, he really does. I gave him more than ample opportunity to run off. I warned him I am high maintenance, self centered, bossy, needy, moody, emotional, etc and he still wants to get hitched. In fact, I am moving tomorrow.

And yes, VERY strenuous life I have gotten! Smiley: sly It is very possible that's how I got injured.

When a post gets reported, how are the admins notified of it?

For example, on the site I help moderate, we have a little section of the site, so to speak, where all the reports are consolidated. Does it work in a similar manner in this site, too?

If you can't go into certain details, I understand.

Edit: Oh, and...

May have been overlooked. o.O I saw that questions made after this post were answered.

Am I not seeing the referral code because of the admin note on my account?

Can I know my user notes?

Can I have EqualsTwentyTwo back? You know it was funny.

Pikko: Did you ever get that thing fixed where your publisher used the wrong name on your bento book?

Umm. I'm struggling to come up with more questions. Page five is so late in the game.

Kao: Favorite computer component?

DF: Favorite car?

Does anyone know how often they are going to change the FFXI skin banner? I like the one with Shantotto. You should tell them not to change it. Ever.

Can you make the Hello Kitty skin into an option skin? like HK.zam.com? Smiley: grin

I think refferal code refers to that opt in stuff that was there at one point. Not sure. I have one, dunno what its for.

And when a post is reported, we get a big "post is reported" note across the top of the screen, similar to the new PM notice. that takes us to the reported page, where we can do several things depending on the response warrented. If several people report the same post they all show up there.

Just a premium thingy. User notes are usually pretty rare. you only get them if you ***** up most of the time.

No.


Favorite component? Hmm. Probably my SLI array of 280 GTX cards. Favorite part I don't own would be one of the new just released 6 core gulftown Core i7 chips (with hyperthreading for 12 logical cores!!!). Can't buy them yet retail, but there are some pre sales evaluations floating around. would love to get my hands on one of them. (P.S., someone send me one of those and I'll guru you and ban 5 people of your choosing. it will be worth it!)

Are the contents of our posts the property of zam.com?



For example, is my DingartTM pending "mine" to use as I wish elsewhere, or is it "not mine" and I'll get my britches sued off if I use them elsewhere?

Where do you get your banstick?

We are given a standard issue banstick when we start.

Do you have a custom made one or just a simple one?

We have the choice to have a custom one made if we so choose. Mine is a giant Hello Kitty hammer that makes a squeeky sound when I hit people with it.

And is every admin required to have his/her own banstick?

Yes. It wouldn't make sense to see Vlorsutes running around with a giant Hello Kitty hammer.

All Admins
If you could will any game into existence, be it MMO, single player, whatever, what would it be?

Not so much a game, but I'd really like for there to be a good Final Fantasy VI movie made in the same vien of FFVII: Advent Children

Usagi
Are there times where you have had to filter what you want to post since becoming an admin?

Several times. Ironically, I decided to change this very post! :P

I know Kao answered some, but here's mine.

Boring notes.
No.
For Pikko, no.
Kao's fav computer component, ANYTHING that is better than mine...
Mustang, by far. Not necessarily a Ford fan, just love the Stang.
I wish all the banners got changed occasionally, I hate using the same boring one over and over. Wish Catt would finish the Christmassy Zam one he was working on!
I loved the HK skin, I think Niz secretly hates it.

I'm pretty sure my Notes probably hint to the PM I got from Worden awhile back. . . so I already know what they say >.>
That's why I asked if they could be removed XD
