Who is Bysby and why is he a mod?

A very old and respected member.

What websites are these, and what is it you actually do?

gay porn?

Fucking anonymous have hacked GoDaddy shutting down sites I run for people. May have lost me a customer as well. Pricks.

They do waaay more harm then good.

That shit's happenin to me right now. Not because of the Dojo, but because the missus won't leave me the fuck alone. I mean, seriously, do couples really have to be in the same room as eachother every single second of the day? Do people not realise that bein in the same room as someone workin is a huge distraction? ESPECIALLY when they've put the fucking TV on!!!

Also on a side note, i am so fucking uber pumped right now since i am on my way down to my parents house and i am gonna get my Dreamcast out of storage and get stuck into replaying Shenmue! It was just a bit too much, knowing that i couldnt play it one last time before leaving to go travelling! :D

Ah nice, enjoy! :D


Oh i will!!!! Just overwhelmed with nostalga right now!! Start off by watching the Project Berkley GDRom, then move onto Whats Shenmue, then Shenmue and finally Shenmue II. :D :D

BOOM!!!

I hope to live like this, one day.

Strange memories on this nervous night at the Dojo. Ten years later? Eleven? It seems like a lifetime, or at least a Main Era—the kind of peak that never comes again. The dojo in the early 2000s was a very special time and place to be a part of. Maybe it meant something. Maybe not, in the long run… but no explanation, no mix of words or music or memories can touch that sense of knowing that you were there and alive in that corner of time and the world. Whatever it meant.…

History is hard to know, because of all the hired bullshit, but even without being sure of "history" it seems entirely reasonable to think that every now and then the energy of a whole generation comes to a head in a long fine flash, for reasons that nobody really understands at the time—and which never explain, in retrospect, what actually happened.

My central memory of that time seems to hang on one or five or maybe forty nights—or very early mornings—when I left the dojo half-crazy and, instead of going home, surfing at Ryos place or some random shenmue websites, not quite sure which turn-off to take when I got to the other end (always stalling at the admins, too twisted to find neutral while I fumbled for some reasonable post)... but being absolutely certain that no matter which way I went I would come to a place where people were just as high and wild as I was: No doubt at all about that…

There was madness in any direction, at any hour. If not across the Shenmue 3 forum, then up the SEGA forum or down General.… You could strike sparks anywhere. There was a fantastic universal sense that whatever we were doing was right, that we were winning.…

And that, I think, was the handle—that sense of inevitable victory over the forces of Old and Evil. Not in any mean or military sense; we didn't need that. Our energy would simply prevail. There was no point in fighting—on our side or theirs. We had all the momentum; we were riding the crest of a high and beautiful wave.…

So now, less than ten years later, you can go up on a steep hill in the dojo and look back, and with the right kind of eyes you can almost see the high-water mark—that place where the wave finally broke and rolled back.

Genesis/Megadrive easily.
Never had a Saturn, but I've looked through its library of games many times, and there are still only a scant few gems that really catch my attention. And the Dreamcast is great, and has a few of the greatest exclusives ever, but I think the system gets built-up a little too much by "cult" gamers these days as some kind of golden shining moment in gaming history, going on about some kind of nonexistent "cohesion" between the various Sega-made games in its library and whatnot. But at the end of the day, I just see it as another gaming console with only a small few games that truly appeal to me. Granted, some of those games are among the greatest ever made, but the amount of them is far too small for me to give much credit to the DC itself.

The Genesis is pure gold, though. The original Sonic games are near perfection, and the system is home to a huge host of brilliantly fun titles.
Rocket Knight Adventures, Ranger X, Shining Force, Wings of Wor, Comix Zone, Gunstar Heroes, Flashback, Shinobi III, Bonanza Brothers, Target Earth, Landstalker, Phantasy Star series, Alisia Dragoon, Beyond Oasis, Rolling Thunder series, Uncharted Waters and New Horizons... the list goes on and on.
So many games with so few negative points to them.
More than almost any other era of gaming, the 16-bit era was all about good, simple fun . And the Genesis/MD was absolutely exemplary of that.

I would still ride the life outta her though

Finally have a permanent place to stay. Trying to get the school thing sorted out for Fall and also signed up for little jobs for voice acting and set work. Hope I get callbacks on those.

Also been going through PMs that critique the DEUX script. You guys know who you are, your input about the whole story has been nothing short of invaluable. I did a sweep and now i'm at the final leg of this four year monster. At page 82, can't wait to change that ending!

Lamewad is not lame at all guys, he sent me 3 games free to me.

I FINISHED DEUX!!!

And goddamn proud of the ending. It's now copywritten and ready to be released.

Yeah i don't understand why any one uses the net for health related things, always ends in worry.


My friend had a problem with her foot, looked online and was convinced she was going to have to lose it.

FUCK! I am loving the Turbografx16!

I honestly thought this was another console I will always dream about but never own. But got such an amazing deal!While I don't have the CD add on I still got Ys III. I have Kieth Courage,Bonks Adventure and Final Lap Twin(it's a racing game and RPG hybrid.

picz of it plz, kthx1!

Pete, don't you think thats a bit harsh? We all have our issues and god knows Adam has his. We're all friends and while we may piss each other off I don't think we should let things come to this. He didn't need to create another account, he broke the rules and if he keeps breaking them then its totally reasonable that you ban him but try not to make it personal by saying the kind of stuff you have. Whatever issues he has, and whatever is causing him to act the way he does he'll have to deal with it. The best thing to do is just respond to his actions without making it too much of a spectacle.


So its ok to just have this happen over and over and over again? This is a regular occurance, and its tiring. Its not harsh at all, he made an alternate account to come back and do the same things he was banned for. Not too long ago, there was a blanket ban on new members signing up because he was banned and making alternate accounts. You have been on message boards long enough not to do that and so has he, and its not just attacks on other people now its threats of self harm . Are you serious?

I am not gonna go down the road of "oohh you need to get help", or "get off the internet" because its been done before and its not happening, nor will it work. He created his own forums to get away from here and in less than a month, look what happens again. Dont you think its slightly odd that his "outbursts" are only here and not at his forums or even Hazuki Dojo? I was finished with him ages ago. I am not a friend of his. I disagree with a lot of principles he lives his life by, with number one, living a life on the internet. I am done talking about him because thats what he wants. Thats what he needs. His blue font to make him stand out.

I dont need that. Other members, old and new dont need that. Any online community doesnt need that.

It's not so much as em bein fitted like that, more like the cables are all bunched up in the way. It's almost as if they purposely make it a pain in the arse for you. Don't worry though, it's easily sorted out. Just don't be afraid to crack open your computer. People treat em like they're proper delicate n shit, but they ain't.

Most of it's pretty straight-forward, and you learn through findin the right connections (the process is practically like those shape-fittin toys for babies n toddlers) It'll take some intentional effort to break summat, so the most damage you'll possibly do is not plug something back in right. Even then, you just open it back up n correct the mistake.

Don't be afraid of cables either, they ain't gonna snap or owt. You gotta remember that all this shit is designed to withstand this kinda shit. Just trust me, open up your computer, take a few pictures, and tell me where you reckon the card's gonna go and if there's owt in the way. If you wanna upgrade this thing now n in the future, you're gonna have to learn how.

God, I miss that show.

.................................soccer mate.

And? Are you telling us that Bri'ish sportsmen don't wear socks? Fact is, we already had a sport where a ball is kicked. You call Football, American Football, which is incredibly lame because anybody can play it. Granted, you may not have a enough black people to be competitive, but you should have thought about that before not enslaving an immense number of them.

Knew you would, Dorian.

All I know is that we have been doing a good job at failing as human beings, but still being able to stand proud while we are at it.

And I fully agree with Spokes.
This is your home too.

These past few pages.. What the fuck am I reading.

In Heaven…

the police are British

anyone know when shenmue 3 is coming out?

He didn't use his book as religious guidance in life but as fact. So when I said that I didn't believe in a strictly literal interpretation he started getting edgy. I always stay polite but due to his arrogant attitude I continued discussing. With human-like I just meant appearance by the way. I didn't make that clear.

I am aware that this is not mainstream though. I mean, the first person proposing the Big Bang theory was a Belgian priest but these guys are the funny ones :P

By the way, the nature of the fundamental forces is actually one of the big areas of research in physics. They know that it needs explaining and try to find why constants have their exact value, why symmetry between forces broke down leading to stars and life,... GPS and so on are "just" byproducts, practical applications, out of that earlier abstract research so it is not the main goal from the start.

Student loan comes in tonight.

Tomorrow I'll be buying a DC, S1 and S2 then.
