Neither did I, but you probably appreciate that people like your work, and it almost certainly annoys you when someone else claims it as theirs, I assume. If not, you are a better man than I.

I live in Cleveland, Ohio (well, just outside of it, actually), and am a retired programmer who acts as a maid/chef/secretary for my wife. She is an electrical engineer / CAD Drafter, depending on what her company needs done

I'm 49+ and my favorite color is purple.

Welcome Aboard. And don't take anything said in these forums too seriously

I don't know who this guy is, but other than the voice actors helping with the dub, Esperknight and I are the only ones in on the project.

The LoX: II translation is doing fine, by the way. I've translated and edited about half of the script, while the other half remains undumped as it is apparently stored a bit differently. In the meantime, I'm keeping busy dealing with voice actors and line submissions, as well as attempting to do one of the characters myself.

I don't especially care what kind of special notoriety I have around here beyond not being confused with this guy. In case anyone wants to know, though, I live in Fukuoka City, Japan, where I teach private English lessons and translate part-time for a design company and an art museum. I'm 26. My favorite color is orange. You'll just have to take my word for it, I guess.

Orange ? What a preposterous claim ! What sort of man likes orange ?

Don't worry, I believe you're not that guy. And apreciate the work you do even if I have yet to experience it first hand.

Excellent! I for one really appreciate loads this is being done

Thanks, guys.

Hah, we should have a thread on pcefx loonies -- Interesting how ones that were banned, come back, might behave for a few days, but it doesn't take long until their weird habits & symptoms start popping up again. And sure enough, people figure who they are, and get banned again. It's amazing -- it's not like this place is seriously strict or anything, too!

Talk about crazies, there was that one seriously insane dude whose whose language became more and more erratic until it literally became unintelligible in the span of like 6-7 posts. Damn, I can't remember his name, but I somehow recall it being in a sales thread or something, where he went from perhaps a just a regular non-native English speaker (Gernman or Polish, maybe?) to some lunatic rambling in his own psychobabble tongue. Must've been around the time of Validus, actually... Anyone remember that whackjob?

Awesome. How did I miss this thread? And yeah, Cephalgy! I get to relive that too now, double awesome!

guyjin · 04/21/2011, 05:01 PM

I used to think Validus was a cut above Ninny, 'cuz at least when he was banned, he stayed away.

Not so, obviously.

esteban · 04/22/2011, 10:02 AM

I think for some of these wacky folks, our board is one of the few meaningful social relationships they have. Yes, a dysfunctional relationship, but it's something.

I used to think that anonymity alone simply brought out the "douchebag" in otherwise "normal" people. But some individuals clearly transcend simple rudeness and occupy "an alternate reality" of their own.

Think of it: modern technology has allowed us to spend more time with clinically deranged individuals than we would otherwise have had the pleasure of interacting with.

Progress.

It's like when people driving cars become jerks... They act in ways they'd never act face-to-face.

This would have prompted me to make a joke about a certain trainwreck of a series, but since none of you would get it, eh

I thought your favorite color was plaid...
