Alex Posted July 25, 2016 Share Posted July 25, 2016 So this is my 750th post, and as I have mentioned before, I would make my AMA on this post. So time to get a little backstory on me~ I joined PO on June 2011, (this is the only date I know don't expect dates for my promotions and stuff) and was generally quiet and afraid, but I started to do battles and use amazing sets like Poison Jab Mienshao in gen 5. While slowly getting better, I was recommended to be a Shanai Admin (a bot that used to run Tours and Trivia) and thus I became one! I guess I did a good job, because sooner or later I was doing work in Tournaments and Trivia, and became friendly with staff and users. There was also a time I got promoted to mod for a joke on April Fools, and honestly I did actually do some work with it before being demoted after it. At some point I got channel op in Tohjo Falls, so an almost mod but not quite, which then leads me to... Becoming a mod! This was honestly not a shock to me, since a lot of the time people joked about me never ever getting mod, but it was still a pleasant surprise. I had a funtime muting people in Tohjo, dealing with tempbans, and working on mostly Trivia after Shanai died off and it was implemented into PO server scripts. There was a massive overhaul in how questions were reviewed; much better than the last, and a lot of people were excited for it! I don't really remember much between being a mod and being an admin, mostly because I'm bad, but I was promoted alongside a few other people, to help the current admins out since we were lacking. I think I was doing a pretty good job; ban evaders were annoying but that's about it. There was the one time I flooded Tohjo flashing everyone... twice. That was scary, but people were understanding and told me it was okay. Some time passes and PO is slowly becoming more stagnant, and I get Super Admin, which was definitely before August of last year, since that was when I was introduced to Reborn. After a while, I decided to step down, and then I slowly transferred to here. I didn't expect to stay here for longer than a few months, but hey look what happened! Ikaru was actually one of my first real interactions, and he's pretty great. Thanks for introducing me to Hyouka! After that, I started becoming friends with people like Zumi and Jan, through the TTYD stream, and Dan approached me like the nice cutie he is. And then I guess I became friends with a lot of people and I love you all <3 So yeah, sorry for my lack of detail but uh, ask me anything. Thanks for reading <3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alex Posted July 25, 2016 Author Share Posted July 25, 2016 1. what's the next 'lil' dan the [whatever]' topic you'd like to see??? I got a dolphin and koala in mind. choose now 2. favorite selena gomez song if you have one? birthday doesn't count 3. do you believe some people never change? 4. why did you decide to sprite and how'd you start? 1. Koala gogogo 2. I don't listen to not video game music rip me 3. Pretty much everyone who isn't a sociopath can change in some way. Whether it's for the better is a different story. 4. Because I was bored and wanted to be useful, and I just made a small edit of some sprite... which I don't remember why'd you link the community page in your status? BECAUSE IM A DUMMY IM SORRY . Just because it's "Stagnant"? I'm too lazy to properly quote this, but I had just become jaded with it. I had been on for too long and a lot had changed; a few friends disappeared, it slowly started to decay, and there were a lot of problems regarding tiering and usage stats due to low player count. There was also one auth who was... really incompetent. They had to ask a lot of questions, and didn't understand context and caused a lot more trouble than good, and they weren't even supposed to be a permanent auth, just a temporary one for a time with no auth. It just angered me, Why do you S U C C Favorite anime. Best niche set for a mon. How'd ya find Reborn? I've only really started talking to you in the last like, 2~ weeks but you're cool as fuck and amazing. Weird how I only really started talking to about V8 beta on a whim. 1) Because I like the taste 2) This is a hard question since I'm bad at favourites, but Ouran High School Host Club has a special place. 3) I'm not sure what you mean but Thunder Wave/Confuse Ray/Seismic Toss/Roost Volbeat was fun to use back in the day. 4) Someone linked the game in the PO staff channel, then the rest followed through. I think you're pretty great too :] Are you ready to answer 45 questions? What is your top 5 anime? I guess it's similar to Skitty's question, but what got you into doing signatures, sprites, and other art-related things? 1) Ouran Highschool Host Club, Yuru Yuri, FREE!/FREE! Eternal Summer, Sakamoto Desu ga? and uh, I'm liking the Ace Attorney anime right now so that I guess. 2) I have no artistic talent but I wanted to create, so that happened I guess. How long does it take for you to make signatures on average? 30 minutes?

Alex Posted July 25, 2016 Author Share Posted July 25, 2016 Do you have any profound wisdom to share? Uhhh, I'm not really a profound person, mostly because I don't try to be. But have this link: i got a very nice thing that's endgame tier on maplestory but. it's on the wrong class. and cannot be on the right class. this very nice thing means nothing. that's all. zumi still a best dw!! what's your next goal now that you're an esteemed Ace Member? - go for auth I dunno, I didn't think I'd get this far. Probably lurk the secret forums EDIT: wait, it's only fair that someone does this for you too! 1. Do you have a tumblr? - Yes, it's http://alicirno.tumblr.com 2. Which current auth member do you feel should be promoted? - Uh, I don't really have anyone in mind. 3. What was the last YouTube video you watched prior to reading this post? - 4. Are you liberal or conservative? - Liberal 5. What game genre interests you the most? - RPG, anything colourful tbh 6. Same but with movie genre. - what's a movie 7. Which user have you found yourself disagreeing with the most, and why? - I'd say Roo but that just means disagreeing with pcgamer. So Shia, I guess. 8. Are you religious in any way? - Not in the slightest. 9. What is your Myer-Briggs personality? - INFP, last time I looked. 10. What is your favourite Pokemon? - A tie between Whimsicott and Froslass. 11. Do you have/have you had any pets? - I've had a few dogs in the past, and currently own a guinea pig. 12. Do you smoke? - Nope 13. Coffee or Tea? - Tea, because english, of course. 14. Is there any part of how Reborn auth deal with rules/punishments you disagree with? - I think everyone pretty much knows by now what I think, but Rule 2 should probably go and mute times are too short, Letting the "ORAORA/MUDAMUDA" spam go freely is kinda silly too. 15. Is there any non-staff member you feel should be promoted? - me Azery :3 16. What is your favourite colour? - Purple 17. Boxers or briefs? - Briefs, because they're tighter. :3c 18.

What is your favourite emoticon? - :3c 45. What are your thoughts on religion? - Personally I think major religions are as credible as other types of mythology, like greek/japanese/norse. I'm also not really a fan of discriminatory doctrine, but I do see how they can positively impact communities, such as with charities. 46. What are your thoughts on me? - I think you're pretty cool and you beat yourself up too easily. You are also definitely a silly.

Administrators Ikaru Posted July 25, 2016 Administrators Share Posted July 25, 2016 Tank Jungler Sona. Next question: When are you downloading league so I can end your entire career for saying this in my presence? Would you be a Lancer because of your luck? Yes, but also because Lancers are cool in general. Rider being my favorite class was mostly just because of Medusa and Santa Alter. Although I have a new appreciation for Dark Knights (and I suppose Mage Knights) in Fire Emblem games after Revelation so we can say that factors into it too. ...But then, my main class in FFXIV was Dragoon and my favorite combination of jobs in Bravely Default was Valkyrie+Spell Fencer............. anyway, this isn't about me. Related: What's your class? Fate/Fire Emblem/(Traditional) RPG/etc. Not to be confused with: What's your favorite class? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess I can try again... 2) Hmm, probably a healer or mage, because I'm too physically weak to do anything as any other class. Healer sounds nicer though so I'll go with that.

Global Mods Ice Cream Sand Witch Posted July 28, 2016 Global Mods Share Posted July 28, 2016 (this scenario is from a dream I had last year) You're climbing a mountain fighting a group that steals books and gives them to their leader who use this mountain as their base. There are lots of enemies of all kinds - swordsmen, gunmen, summoners, etc. Their second in command has muscles but he's tiny, maybe barely over 2 feet. Pick up to 4 Reborn members who'll be doing this mission with you and explain what role each of you will have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators Amethyst Posted July 30, 2016 Administrators Share Posted July 30, 2016 You've gotten stuck in the Reborn region. Where do you want to make a home? What video game or anime character would you most like to spontaneously come into existence and have to live with you? A passing spirit offers you a choice: You may sacrifice any skill you have (in which case you may never do it again) in return for becoming equally good at a different skill. Would you take the deal, and what would you trade? A drug is made publically available that, without adverse effects, lets people feel happy and content at all times as they go about their daily lives. It is highly addictive, but people are still functional on it. Do you take it? How frequently? You're a character in a fighter game! What kind of moves do you have? A trolley speeds down a rail with a human tied on the track. You have access only to a lever which shifts the trolley to a second rail which has a collection of small and cute animals tied to it so that they will all be killed instead. How many, (or what kind) of animals would it take for you to not pull the lever? Your biological cousin is madly in love with you and has confessed 3,909 times. One day you catch them stalking you. Do you approach them about it, and what do you say? Which anime or game would you least like to be trapped in? After being trapped in a building for a much longer amount of time than you expected, you step outside only to find out the apocalypse occurred while you were trapped. There are still scattered human survivors but the world is now largely toxic and dangerous. What will you do now? Assuming your current mental health never changes, what would it take to get you to get into education or employment? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Assuming your current mental health never changes, what would it take to get you to get into education or employment? 1. White North Peridot Ward 2. Oikawa Tooru because he's hot Probably Haruhi Fujioka she seems down to earth and pretty great. 3. I have skills?? I don't really know how to answer this question, sorry... I guess since I don't know I don't take the deal. 4. Worry, fear, anger, sadness, hate, anxiety, and other instinctual feelings are far too important to function competently to be completely rid of, and if you're content with everything, you're more unlikely to think of any part of your life as threatening to you, since you're okay with random injuries and stuff, or to think critically. So I probably wouldn't take it at all, and I feel like a few others won't either. 5. A fast/graceful character that is weak but hits a lot, or a character that uses a lot of projectiles. 6. Who is the human? What do I know about them? What are they like? Honestly it'd probably be have to be quite a few animals before I switched it, but it largely depends on who it is. 7. What makes you think I said no all those times? What if I wanted to? :3 Anyway, in the event that I didn't want to comply with them, I'd probably confront them about it in a not angry manner. If they continue to do so afterwards, I'd probably get legal action involved. 8. I haven't watched it but probably danganronpa. 9. Scavenge for supplies aka wander aimlessly until I find food, meet someone will help me or until I die. 10. Honestly I have no idea. I'd need quite a lot of help, and interviews are kind of terrible for me, so... Like I wouldn't mind a janitorial job or something as something to do it's just the getting there that's the problem. Like if a family member worked somewhere and there was something I could do there as work I guess idk. Sorry this answer kind of sucks :x How do you like your eggs in the morning?
