The Type-O-Positive thread

With all the bitching and things going on lately, I for one am sick of it. This thread is going to be a positive one. The idea of this thread is to reply and say something you like/respect about at least 10 members here. Please do not reply unless you are going to say something you like/respect about the members here.

I think we need a thread like this one, all of the fame wars right now going around are getting old. I know I'v started quite a few, and there isn't any reaso for it except I really Like poking fun at things. I'm just joking when I do it but people take it seriously.

Anyway, I want people to reply here in this thread, and say positive things about people here.

If this backfires and turns into a flamewar or something, I'm sure Ennis will back me up on this and delete those posts that go off topic. In no particular order, I'll start:

MathGirl32: You were one of the first people I ever met here. Your smart, and could sooooo whip my ass in math. Your awesome!

Negative: You were another of the first peopele I met here, Your smart...Actually I think just about everyone I'm putting here is smart, ah well lol. You also have a jacket I really want, and your funny. Good to have you around here.

Confirmed_kill: You hated me bad lol. Ah well, your still cool. We agree on most politics, and your still funny sometimes too.

Juridian: I'm pretty sure your on that list of people that do NOT like me too. But regaurdless your another one that is at least willing to back up what you say. you do know your ****, and I do respect you as a member here.

TheHorse13: Heh, you ****in rock dude! You write very good tutorials, and you know your **** too. Your cool as hell. Now if youd get off away on AIM lol.

JP: Well, what can I say? I know you can't stand me, but you did found this place. So for that I thank you. You were mean to me everytime I met you, but you still founded this place, so thanks. I dont hate you like you may think, I just don't get along with you, which doesnt really matter.

MarkBoyle: Heh, you were the only one to beat me in the AO king thing, and I WAS whippin everyone's ass in that untill the LAST DAY. Ah well, you seem to care about AO and try to help out.

Intmon: Man you put up with ALOT of bullshit. You actually answer PMs and respond quickly. You rock man. Keep up the good work. I think you guys are doing great.

Mnstrgrl: I dont even know you, but youv been killing more AO bugs than the Orkan man =)

Aeallison: Heh, my little PFY sidekick. Your awesome man. You helped me when I was a newbie here, and helped make me a senior. And you were also one of the first I inspired to write your OWN BOFH story. And I know you cant be on all the time, but it's good to hear from you when you are, you rock man. And now I'v been writing for both of us lately in the Bastard admin stories because youv been gone. Hope to see you back soon!

CXGJarrod: Dude your cool as hell! You contribute to AO nicely, and your awesome!

Cheyyenne12: However the hell you spell that. We didn't start out to good, but afterwe talked, we had everything sorted out. you and memory both started out on the wrong foot with me, but now were cool, and your a good post whore and funny =)

WhizKid: Dude you rock! I'v never seen anyone take my flames and bashings so well and come back with a smart ass reply! I love it. you rock! And your part of the list of victims on my Bastard admin series=)

HT_Regz: Heh, my American hating friend. Lol, I dont care if you really hate us or not, your still cool. You even gave out almost every octet of my IP on your lil radio show lol. But you also played some of the techno I made, so it was all in good fun. You rock man.

Noia: Dude you rock too lol. Your really cool to talk to even though we havn't talked much, your still cool though,

Sorry if I left someone out that wanted to be included but I have to go for a bit. Reply to tis as much as you want with as many names as you'd like. Say lsomething good about everyone though. Also, say something good about you, **** I just did =)

So for something good about me: I'm funny as hell, entertaining, smart, and I really like having fun. I can play Bass, Guitar, Some Piano, Keyboards, Drums, Turntables, I can sing, GreekGoddess said my voice was hot, I can write well, I'm very talented and creative, and I made all the people that hate me believe I was stupid, which was nothing more than a social engineering project when I was bored. Oh, and, my hair kicks ass.

Feel free to add to this.

Say postive things about people huh??

well, I'm a nice person, cute, attractive, single, smart, sexy. :) There I said a positive thing. lol

since I dont' have the time to name off everyone right now I just want to say that I enjoy having everyone here that belongs to this community. I have enjoyed being a part of it. There have been a lot of people that have helped me out with my problems, and I can only hope that I have helped enough people.

btw gore:

I like suse to. lol

Sorry I started typing out my reply listing the people and why....but I dont feel I have to - my friends know they are my friends I dont need to tell them....and i could never remember everyone I would want to list anyways!

also i dont think i need to single out reasons why i like people - i dont like people cause o any one or two things - i like them for who theyt are as a whole...not cause of certain things they do.

I dont mean this to sound bitchy or anything - i think it is a good idea Gore , am just stressing my reasons why i havn't listed anyone - tho i still want to say you guys rawkor to all those people am friendly with :)

v_Ln

Well..... I am just glad for a community with all this knowledge. You guys kick @ss! (And have helped me out of many a bad situation) So thanks for the help.

I am also quite positive about SUSE supporting most of my hardware! ;)

And Lastly.... Thanks for the SUSE help Gore! (I am sure I will have many more questions)

I have only a few that i could mention that helped/befriended me thus far:

I2C-> If you want to know about robots this is the guy to ask, he is willing to help to the extreme.

Mark_boyle-> a pretty good AO-politician in my view,he seems to, somehow, run the show, but still is very friendly.

well those are the only ones i can say , without lying, that has affected me and my AO-life in a positive way.

You just earned my respect with that post. You made a a post, gave your thoughts on it, and most of all, you were honest about it.

CGXJarrod; Heh, don't worry man, I'm here for you with your SuSE needs. CGX is one of the people I was talking about when I said I had helped alot of people but it was usually in a PM. We just exchaged 5 of them in a row where I helped him out with servers for work and home.

I don't feel I need to show everyone I am smart, anyone that has PM me for help knows that. And I don't need it in a thread, helping someone where everyone knows your helping is great, but when you help someone and no one else knows about it but you, it is the most rewarding because it make you feel good that you helped someone just to help, not to help and show everyone how great you are.

Also, I may be posting the Bastard Sys Admin From Michigan #12 soon :) It's about 10 pages long right now.

I like all the members of AO. They all have something to contribute whether it be knowledge or humor.

Here are just a few that stick out:

Phishphreek80: because he's not afraid to give antipoints to people who help him. And also not afraid to jump in and help either, which is the case for almost everyone here.

GreekGoddess: I love your website, very good resource for web design. You are the queen of design and the web devel forum.

Tedob1: Very dedicated to the security aspect of this site, and a very good contributor.

MsM: Who doesn't love MsM.

Gore: Love your stories. And you don't just contribute humor, you also contribute knowledge. And I've never seen someone so dedicated to a certain distro(Suse).

Tiger Shark: You seem to know a lot about security. And you helped me straighten out one of my tuts, whether you know it or not.

catch: Where have you been. You seem to be really smart and knowledgeable and we need you here. I haven't seen you post in a while.

I pretty much respect every senior member here, because they all contibute something to the community whether they like it or not. And I think positively of everyone here whether they know it or not.

I like the newbies because it makes me feel smart to answer a question.

God bless AO. The best community I've had the priviledge of being a part of.

I have to say that these two members have gone above and beyond the call of duty.(via PM's)

gore: thnx for all the SuSE and Libranet help!

Thehorse: thnx for all the help about nmap!

Both of you guys should make your own Video Professor cd's on linux

I met my wife here... what more can I say? :D

I once compared AO to a microcosmos, and the longer I'm here, the more I'm convinced I'm right.
The same types of people you find in the real world, you'll find here: leaders, followers, sweeties, *******s, smarties, smart-asses,... with only one difference: we don't actually know eachother (with some exceptions of course). And it's interesting to see how people communicate from behind that "facade".
Anyways: I'm proud to be part of this microcosmos, and I hope to be able to keep on contributing my little share to this community.

I think everyone has there share to contribute, each in his/her own way. I don't know everything there is to know, but I'm still learning here.

I like anyone/everyone who is willing to share what they know with someone else. Then, if I can, I try an pass it along. Keeps the cycle going and everything. I don't really have a bunch of friends on the site, but anyone who is patient enough to share knowledge is a *friend* of mine, albeit in cyberspace. Good enough for me.

I also get to argue politics here, that can be fun too. Not sure if my tolerance for liberals has gone up any, but you never know. It's always good to hear their views on things. Would you believe me if I told you I actually have a few liberal friends... it's true. ;)

Makes for an exciting college experience! Where was I.....



`pw

Heh, God I'm glad I made this thread. It's been more fun than any of the others I'v been in, in a long time. Most people here know how I feel about politics. I dont like alot of things that happen here in the US. I'm fairly open minded I think.

I don't know if I'd be considered a "Liberal", I think more of Rebellion. It's that punk rock spirit.

Negative, NP: The Ramones - Danny says.

Have you heard this dude? This song is so great! It's mellow but I really love it!!

Now back to being on topic:

This is a community that I really love being a part of. I know I'v made alot of bad choices here, and alot of them in Michigan in my "not online" life. But you people here in this thread were willing to look past all of that and see what was really there;

A bastard admin ;) Heh, and also someone who loves making people laugh, knows some **** about security and *NIX, and, me having a personality like no other. I think I keep it fun and interesting here because you can rarely tell if I'm joking around or not.

If youv talked to me in a PM, I usually dont joke in those, I show you how I really feel, just like in this thread, your seeing me, not me messing around to get a reaction out of someone, but me speaking to you in the way that I really am.

Sure it's great fun to joke around and use some social engineering style attitude to make people believe I'm actually this mean or stupid, but I don't do it all the time. I guess it goes back to when my unckle was living with me, I led him on to believe I was stupid, he got used to it, expected less, and then when I started college, and let him see me do a few things on the computer, the shocked look on his face was great.

So I guess I just love that "Holy ****! I didn't know you could do that" expression on people. It's like an orgasm, lol. So anyway, try not to take the things I say to seriously unless I say otherwise.

Well of course... ;)

Gore: So the point you're really trying to drive home is what? You have multiple personalities? ;)

I'm not going to list everyone here that I respect/appreciate cause that'd take way too much time.
You should already know who you are. Not to mention the community as a whole.

Thanks to all who have helped me and hopefully some of you have found me helpful.

I like to give back to this community becasue I feel good when I help people and its nice to know that there are people here to help me when I need it.

With all these flame threads lately... its nice to have a positive one.

Hey, Gore...thank you for the kind words. :D You are right, there are a lot of nice people here. Your post is a good reminder of that fact. It's nice to see such a positive post. I had no idea I was one of the first people you met here....I must have been pretty new at the time as well....it's nice to see we newbies can stick together. ;)


I remain....type O negative (really ;) )

I've found that pretty much every member here makes this site a better place to visit, mainly because the bad apples don't stay around for very long.

The main reason I come here is because on this site, people actually want to help other people. Most other computer security forums are nothing more than a bunch of script kiddies and a few more experienced hackers trying to impress each other, where threads quite often degenerate into flame wars. Here, if we want a flame war, we start a thread for it and take out our ftustrations there, thereby improving the overall quality of the site.

I think the moderators deserve a lot of credit for making sure forums stay on topic. But more than that, this site seems to be governed with a very laissez-faire attitude. I feel I can post what I like, sometimes even if it's offensive. I have never seen a post deleted by a mod here. This site is more or less governed by its own members, and not by moderators headshotting everyone who breaks a rule.

Intmon deserves a lot of credit as well. He actually listens to his members when they ask for things. I have seen 24 hour turnarounds on suggestions here if there's enough interest. Despite his administrative control over the site, he mostly takes a step back and lets us solve our own problems when things go wrong. And he seems to be balancing his need to make a profit with our need to have a site like this.

And don't forget JP. Now he really knew how to take care of his members. Without him, this site would have never existed. But beyond that, he took the necessary steps to make sure that this site became a positive environment and didn't simply fade into the other thousands of "security" sites out there. It was because of his hard work and dedication that this site appears in the works cited pages of 3 security textbooks of mine.

I know this site will always continue to be a place to ask questions when I'm stumped. This is because a genuine desire of most members to help people, and not just help themselves. In my opinion, that's what sets this site apart from every other site.

Na; I think I more or less just love to joke around alot and take social engineering to a new level. My personality is kind of strange I guess. I mean, it's not that odd when you break it down; We all have good and bad days, as do I, I just try looking for something more in them.

So basically, I have my happy side and my bad side. Everyone does because I'm pretty sure everyone gets upset once in a while, I just try staying with my funny side that makes people laugh. And when someone does/says something that upsets me, I of course get upset, but I don't like it getting mad.

But by me keeping things interesting, I mean by this that I joke around alot but I can make it sound fairly seriouse even if I'm not. It's good acting on my behalf ;) And that is a foundation for social engineering, which is a fun sport.

I may do it, but I don't use any valued information I get; It's all in the challenge of getting it that is fun.

And yes, Mellisa, you were one of the first people I met, we both joined not far apart and we still get along. :)

EDIT: This is my 1200th post here on AntiOnline. I just wanted to say thank you to all of you for allowing my 1200th post to be a good, positive one.

I've been helped by many of the members here. I've learned much from reading the forums. I would like to thank the community as a whole. I haven't had much real contact with the community, I try to only post when neccessary, and recently I've shied away from technical posts due to the fact that I have to "talk shop" all day at work and just need a break from it. I'll get back into the technical stuff later. As far as naming people who've helped me there are too many to list. But here's a quick one:

MsMittens: You do so much around here, especially the newsletters.

Spurious_inode: Your a good dude.

Gore: BOFH, the funniest stuff I've ever read.

Valhallen: You started the "Non-sensical thread", what more can I say. 3000 of the most entertaining posts ever.

There's too many to list. But Everbody has contributed to this site. Even the people who have done nothing but negative stuff, you have allowed the positive things to truly shine.

Good job on this thread Gore.

okay my turn.

Gore: you sick bastard( i mean that in the nicest way possible)

MsMittens: I know alot of other people here have allready mentioned you but damnit you deserve the recognition

Negative: same for you as MsMittens

HTRegz: All sorts of help from this dude. too much to list. Thanx bro

Wizkid: some pretty funy stuff.

JP: for starting this whole thing.

AllenB1963: Generaly a pretty decent guy and usualy very helpfull.

MicroBurn: Another realy great guy.

Dopeydadwarf: Doesnt post much but when he does he;s got something insightfull to say.

and all the ub3r 1337 h4x0r n1nj4'$ for giving us something to laugh at.

Gore: I know we started off of the wrong foot but now i think you are one of the funniest people here and i think you know your stuff about linux. You rock dude.

MsM: Same as everyone else, tx for staying with us after all the bullshit we've gone through. You are the coolest teahcer a student can have. And you better show this thread to your students.

Negative: Tx for moderating and making AO work.

Ennis: very nice guy here, very funny, young and good knowledge.

Whizkid: You just rock, what more can i say, you are one of the coolest guys here along with cheyenne.

allenb1963: Tx for the help with cracking Windows XP :p, the program worked you gave me. Tx a lot. You helped me quiet a bit here on AO.

Cheyenne: Tx for putting me into that bullet proof cube, i really enjoy the time there. And we can always except a smartass and funny reply.

v_Ln: Tx for the help with Photoshop, u know your stuff about design and i apreciate you very much man.

NFG: even if we fight sometimes, i mean it in a fun way so don't get mad.

phishphreek: Tx for the books you gave me, and i don't see you post very much but when you post, it's usually not something unusefull.

cdkj: My love:)

MicroBurn: one the smartest young people i have ever seen.

JP: Tx for AO.

TheHorse13: Most intelligent man i have seen so far. You usually don't post bullshit so you keep the Security Related part of AO alive more then anyone else.

steve.millner: You also know your stuff, we are happy to have you here.

Greek Goddess: sexy, smart, and most best you really know what you are talking about reagrding any form of design.

intmon: for fixing the bugs, tx.

Special thanks to Tedob1 and debwalin, i don't know you guys that much but you seem really great.

The Specialist: You always say what you mean and i respect that big time.

Thank you everyone for not banning me when i was a newbie with 2 red dots. Everyone on AO has something to say, and if we didn't have our ups and downs, would this fun, really? Now let's get back to work and make AO better.

also a w00t for myself for being the only Croatian guy here:)

I've been debating this for a while now... but since I've gotten two mentions (so much for my attempts to be hated :) ) I might as well reply.

so... positive things about 10 people eh...


The Mod Squad: What can I say, you guys crack the whip and we enjoy the pain :) j/k.... It's nice to be in a place that isn't a prison camp, where we actually have freedom.

Past and Current Owners: Thanks for the site and the updates... However, I frown on the ads, but hey... money makes the world go round (wanna slide some my way?)

Gore: What would we do without the stories, the humour and the incessant flamming. BTW you live less than an hour away come visit you bastard

WhizKid: You put in a hell of an effort to learn this ****.

Phishphreek and ZM77: Always good to talk to.... AIM baby! that's where it's at.. at least when it's not somewhere else.

Tedob, Tiger Shark and TheHorse: I'm pretty sure you guys wrote the book... if not all the books... Talk about a walking store of computer information... sometimes it's just scary.


hrm.. is that 10 yet? I dunno... I've made more than a few enemies around here, but oh well..

GG: What can I say... you're an amazing Web designer

Everyone else: Why to keep the community somewhat alive :)

Great idea, Gore! I haven't been around all that long, but I've enjoyed most of the time I spend here. There is a huge potential for good things to happen on this site.

Keep it up!

I have to say it once more, this is one of the best threads I've seen on this or any other site. Gore, you've done something amazing. It's nice to see a non-technical thread that hasn't become a flame war. Everybody has been positive throught this whole thread.

Once again, good job Gore.

Wow, thanks guys. I left for a bit to help out Phishphreek with his first boot up and using of SuSE Linux so I was gone, and came back to see this thread turning out into something great....Wow.. Not one bad comment. Heh, thanks again. I'm currently watching the Simpson's Christmas DVD. It rocks :)

CXGJarrod, you have a new PM. If you need anymore help and you see this thread before my message, ask away, I'm here.

And also a congradulations to Phisphreak on installing SuSE Linux and loving it :) EHhe, told ya man!

Thanks again to everyone, you all rock! Don't forget to say something good about yourself now.

I like to say that all of you are fantastic, some are more willing to help than others, but that doesn,t make a diference. also i would like to mention that the best thing about this site, even if some are Newbies, Jr members, Members, Senior members, All the oponions count. And as i see it the Seniors don't act like jerks trying to impress everyone and when they give an explanation or try to prove a point they make you fell like if you don't know sh**
But the persons that i would like to thank are.

MsMittens: she's great, and makes a hell of a job taking kare of the newsletter

Gore: He can defenly can talk (or write) i never get bored reading his post and tutorials, and youre accesible to others.

allenb1963: His a nice guy, and when he can help someone he does it.

.: Shrekkie :.: HIs also someone that helps if he can.

And not just them, almost all of the members (in my personal opinion) try to do their best to help others. Thank's to everybody.


I would like to thank JP for creating this site, he made this posible.

Be happy or Die trying :p

Well first of all I would like to say thanks to all the people who have helped me since I have joined A.O wish I could list everyone but there is not enough room and this would be one long ass post if I did

Gore for the advice he gave me when I needed it and for the Bofh stories they kick some ass Thanks Gore

Cheyenne for sticking me in the plastic box and throwing it out the window and for your help also

Negative for being there when I had a question about something

Ms Mittens for being one smart lady on A.O and for the hard work she puts in to the A.O newsletter

Thehorse Thanks for writing your tutorials and posting them on A.O I have learned alot from them

Greek goddess you always have the coolest avatars and great web site :)

Val you have written some great tutorials and posted some pretty funny posts on here thanks for the laughs

phishphreek You are one smart guy again I have learned alot from your posts

Memory for pointing out a mistake that I had made when I was new to this site

Cdjk Very funny lady with a great sence of humor

Nightfalls I don't know how the hell you got to senior status so quickly but thanks for being a friend :D

i just browse around here because for the most part i feel that i dont have enough knowledge yet to contribute fully...but when the time comes that i can i will definatly be there to help out...but basically the majority of the people here are really great people and have helped me gain a lot of knowledge already...all the negative people here slowly get weeded out and it is the good ones that stick around...but all the members that contribute to this site are great people.

Wellity, wellity, wellity...

Well I've known lots of people here over a long time I guess so I couldnt name them all as god knows how long it would take and its Saturday night soon!

Well here goes

Negative : For just being an interesting guy all around, for thinking for yourself and of course when I came here you used to do those flames, you know the one's and they made me stop posting stupid questions.

MsMittens: For taking a little idea of mine and making it into a kick ass newsletter! +countless other things!

Val: Is maith liom Val mar ta se craicailte. ;)

Rioter: Havent talked to you in god knows how long but when I started around here I remember being on IRC and you made everyone laugh!

Well I could name so many people, you know who you all are, cheers gore for a good thread!

See this is what happens when you don't have an internet connection for 2 or 3 days.

Damnit you guys are goign to make me jack someones connection at night.


Hmm...
People I respect here.
Wow that is a really long list and even for the people I don't really like that is a list, but instead of going through the entire group of people and taking forever doing so.

Which I will probably end up doing knowing myself.

I will just say, there are some really cool, people here, plenty of which I am glad I have had a chance to talk to and see. There are some I have met and some I will probably meet.

I will say that in the time I have been here there have been those that have helped me. There have been those that have laughed with me.

**** there have been those that have laughed at me.

But all in all there is a pretty good group of people here.

I will say though.

/me runs and grabs a tissue.

In the time I have spent on this site I have spent alot of time reading. Even to the people that aren't considered to post the most Computer related stuff there still needed.

Ugh...
With that said I think I will go back to doing something that isn't positive.

Hmm...

I could always do some work.
Ha


After typing all that I think I have decided what I will do, I am going to name the people around here that eitere weren't named much or weren't named at all.

Nfg. Though we do disagree (Biggest understatement of the year) You are funny. You are also kind of cool.

I've had some good people encourage me to continue to be a member of this community & help me out during my time and I will name a few:

Mark Boyle
Negative
Ms Mittens
Phish

But thank you to everyone else - Even those I've disagreed with, since it is important to have your own views challenged on a regular basis.

So I would once again like to thank everyone here for making AO the kind of place I want to hang out.

Woo, I'm dragging up an old one...does anyone else not see the blinking dates anymore? They're not blinking for me anymore.

Anyway, I'm sorry I missed this thread the first time thru, and with the whole Ratman/NFG thing coming up and people getting involved in that, this seemed like a good one to dig up again.

People I admire...

GG: What can I say that hasn't been said.
Rioter: Those of you who don't like him, don't understand him
Phishphreek: Always a helpful comment, word of advice or encouragement
MG32: just cause she's pretty damn smart all the way around. She kicks ass
rcgreen: I rarely agree with his opinions, but he has the balls to stand behind them
Ennis: Hah, what is there to say?
MsMittens: An incredible addition to this community, levity, knowledge and wit all in one place.

Debwalin: We used to talk alot but I havnt heard from you in months, your fun. Hope you and your children are doing well.

I haven't spoken much about this on the forums, some people do know about it, but no, I haven't talked to anyone that wasn't a very very very close friend in a long time very much lately. For a brief synopsis of the situation, I sent my son to his dads house for summer vacation, and he didn't send him back. I've spent the last 6 months in court, fighting for custody of my son, which I already had, and going to meetings with my lawyer. I didn't see my son for over 6 months, and was only able to speak to him rarely, with his dad on the phone with him almost everytime. I have also suffered a some severe health problems this year. It has not been a good year for me, and I have withdrawn from a lot of things that I participated in before. I had a court date 2 days before Thanksgiving, and the judge still has not made a ruling in the custody case. I have been under an enormous amount of stress, and sometimes that comes out in the wrong way, especially if you are online and don't have to face any real consequences for your actions.

Hey Deb, I just want you to know that I'm with you all the way, and I'm sure everyone on AO feels the same.

I've always liked and respected you since I started posting on these boards, and I have no doubt that I would think the same of you IRL.

You're not alone in all of this - we're all here for you - and I for one am glad that you're back.

Warmest regards,

SSJVegeta-Sei

P.S. I still see the blinking dates.

Thank you! That was a lovely post to wake up to first thing in the morning :)

Well, I forgive you. Seeing as how you're going through something that hits close to home for me. My dad left me before I was even born. He wanted to get an abortion and never wanted me. He also somehow got the people to hide the fact that my Mom asked for child support. So for 16 years of my life, I did not know him, had to get a blood test to prove I was his, and then he only paid child support for 2 years.

I'v seen him twice. Once was while I was in 6th grade getting a needle in my arm to draw blood, and once in a store. He knows I know what happened back then, and I'm 6'1 and about 280 pounds and built, he is about 5'5, and saw me and bolted the other way. So yea, I can kind of understand how you may feel with having problems with a Dad. However, I will offer to break some bones of his for a small cash settlement.

As for Rioter, I think people that don't like him have just never talked to him. He is WAY smarter than anyone gives him credit for. I'v gotten to finally talk to him on IRC and had a great time. We actualy had a talk for a while about random things here and there and he's funny as hell.

And yes, I agree this thread should have more posts in it after everything going on.

Also, something no one would have ever suspected, me and JP talked and actually got along about a week ago. *Hears the thud of members fainting* We have similar tastes in alcohol and that sparked an entire convo where we were getting alog very well.

Another thing, after I kind of let more people know that the gore they knew was mostly a joke played by me...Heh, not everyone took that to well, but it was fun. Like I said though, the only part I pretended during that was being the whiny bitch type. Just wanted a reaction that's all. I never pretended any friendships or anything because that's not right. And most of the people here that I talk to almost daily, know that.

Hey guys Sorry for breaking in. I am fairly new to A.O (newB as they call it). My A.O title says Jr Member but trust me i am a newB and want to remain one because this way u learn more . I did't joined AO by choice it was just a chance i was looking for a Trojan Horse AIM Trojan that is. Our teacher asked us to study trojans and the best way is to do so is by downloading and studyng one. it was just a chance that i opened a thread and started reading it and what can i cay from that day on i have been spending most of my time reading threads and learning new things. i think AO rocks man it is a place to share Knowledge inspite of the few NFG,Ratman incidents i still don't know what exactly they were about all i made out is it has something to do with Spechacekrs(http://www.spec.cometstream.net/spec) and multiple accounts anyway i don't want to know about it. i think all the people here at at AO are quite helpful a bit harsh on NewBs but i find them more helpful, i have some of my most irritating questions being patiently ansered. i would like to point out one thing thet people give sufficeint respect to deserveful post wether it comes from a newb or a senior member, because generally what happens is when a new member comes into the clan the established ones generally tend to get very that i am a Senior person how could 1 day old chick answer my questions. but i found out that the things are quite the opposite of that here at AO. People Senior ones have given sufficient respect(greenes that is) to Some of my posts even i being a newb. The silver(gray) dot you see is because i like silver color lol :D. I haven't been around all that long, but I've enjoyed most of the time I spend here.

i would like say a few words in appriciation for

JP: God Nayhaaaaa "John Paul". My mother named me after a pope of all god forsaken people

Ennis: (can't find words)Don't try it, you're wasting your time. I like his sig. Short and simple

Negative: the one eyed Demon. Constantly lisining at port AO and discarding (Negging) the Junk

MsMittens: looking for articles and such for the next issue

tonybradley: Giving the political touch ( if he gets his way Bush is history)

CGKanchi: He comes, He sees He help and vanishes.
