The same stuff happened last year and they rolled the servers back just fine.

They already fixed the changes that were made to the database in the latest series of attacks, and they also disabled BBcode on the forums in as a temporary measure to stop that vector of attack.

After they fixed all that, the DDOS started.

That's why I use anidb to keep track of my anime. These kind of stuff usually do not happen with anidb. It does have its kinks, but I like it the best anyhow

We have a new water guy. He is even more annoying the the previous one >_>
I take it you're referring to me? Maybe not, I've been sort of defensive considering it's the internet, probably because I'm the 'new guy' around here.

Dear LillyTown,
no honey, I was referring to a real person who brings drinking water to my home.
Do not be so guarded here, if you will be most likely people might start to attack you. Oh, yes, everything said to you about you or just said is not a personal attack

Have fun.

Oh, cool, my mistake! I usually don't take the internet too seriously but I actually care about this site and my presence on it. I want to not just fit in but be a valuable member of the community and maybe even one day go to a convention with other members and such. Since this is the general chit chat thread I'll mention I was planning to go to Sac Anime but being broke I was planning to stay at my granny's instead of a hotel. She came down for my sis' baby shower so I wasn't able to go

I've never been to an anime convention but used to go to Comic Con with my dad as a kid, I remember it being so much fun! I plan to make it to the next Sac Anime and hopefully I'll have some sort of cosplay by then.

Wellllll so far you have not made such a good impression, not bad either. Just an impression of something.
Just stop thinking that people attack you here. If they will do that you will know it for sure. As far as I know we do not talk between lines here...well mostly we don't

LillyTown · « **Reply #6284 on:** September 04, 2013, 05:04:59 PM »

You'll be breaking 8000 posts soon..... That's a lot of posts. Do you participate in the forum games or is that just from being around for a while? Or perhaps posts in the forum games don't count toward displayed post count?

harpy · « **Reply #6285 on:** September 04, 2013, 05:14:11 PM »

I am not sure if The Lounge posts counts.... but game tread do not count for sure. Well at least I heard something like that a while back, never really paid attention to that. I did get my title - Have no life, back when we had titles like that.

I just have been around for a while now, haven't been posting as much as I used to. Ok today maybe, but no, not posting as much and not spending days and days here

Besides forum have gone a bit slower comparing to time when I first started posting.

LillyTown · « **Reply #6286 on:** September 04, 2013, 05:29:11 PM »

I'm not *sure* but jsut made a few posts in the game threads and I think my posts went from 94-97.

harpy · « **Reply #6287 on:** September 04, 2013, 05:40:51 PM »

Well then I suppose they do count, but there was something going around that posts there do not count.
I do not really care about the post count anyhow. It not like having more or less post gives you anything.

just made a post in game tread - my post count stayed the same, soooo - they do not count! I win!!!

Gosh I love evening shifts :3
for me: 13:30 - 20:30 or 12:30 - 20:30
I get to sleep late and the starting pace is slower than on the morning shift.
In the morning shift, you enter the shit storm immediately after changing into work clothes. But then again, the rest of the day is a lot easier, but imagine, cleaning shit and showering others in a room where air conditioning sucks, right from 7:30am, sounds like fun, eh?

I prefer the same conditions at 6pm. A lot easier to cope with it.

LillyTown · « **Reply #6289 on:** September 04, 2013, 05:49:29 PM »

Indeed, I just want to cement that I intend to be around for a while and I think a higher post count shows that. I assume a lot of people disappear after few posts and as your post count gets higher you seem like more of a permanent, well known member.

What do you do for a living, as in where do you work and what's your job title? I've had a couple rough jobs but I just can't imagine cleaning shit. I take it you mean animal shit or possibly human shit. I just couldn't do that :\

harpy · « **Reply #6291 on:** September 04, 2013, 05:56:18 PM »

Hm, there have been few member that got really high post counts in an blink of an eye and went to lost member land right after that.

Well, I still think that post count do not matter.

ha ha ha, went through old box/bakaBT image folders and found this thing

its a shame I do not have family tree image we had back then, it was kind of messed up family, but most families are like that anyhow

darn it was fun..... and and and ooh well....

@LillyTown - no double posting, if you need to post something more, just edit your post and ad it in there.

LillyTown · « **Reply #6292 on:** September 04, 2013, 06:03:13 PM »

Ahh, I know not to double post, I guess I made a mistake and didn't realise I had posted last. I don't see a way to delete my last post and just edit into my previous but I'm a total noob.

@Harpy
Tomoya-kun was one of those.
I spammed 1k posts in the games section before getting 300 posts that they count.
I think I got most of my posts on my 2nd membership year... And yea, post count doesn't matter, it is the quality of the posts that does.
...Which makes me the biggest crap poster around here.

@lillytown
I study practical nursing. Now on 6 week learn-in-job period.
I Study about growing children, taking care of people and treating about any kind of person.
So along psychology and medical treatment, I need to study about supporting growth, Making food, cleaning, treating wounds/broken bones, treating patients that have to lie in bed 24/7 and take care of their daily needs, I need to be able to do a lot of stuff.

The difference between practical nursing and nursing isn't that big. Nurses deal with the stronger and more dangerous stuff and don't get as close to the patient as practical nurses.
Practical nurse is the one who knows the patient the best, and doctors and nurses listen to their opinion. Ofcourse, in different places and countries, the practical difference of these 2 vary. So the distinction isn't as great as it seems in some places. But generally, Nurses deal with more dangerous stuff that are more likely to kill the patient if not done correctly, otherwise, they do pretty much the same as practical nurses.
The combined education for these 2 is 6 years. 3 for each.

No worries I am yet to find a way to delete my posts....ok, there is no such opinion

@mAh bull, most of your post are fun to read! I rather have more fun posters then all serious ones.

I've never found such a button, as for the honor of old, MT VERY 1ST FORUM POST!

(click to show/hide)

Now, how much better is my English

glad my 1st post was a shot one... My horrible English becomes more visible in the following 20 posts

EDIT:
@Harpy,
thanks,

I tend to act lightheartedly and stupid. But I can be sensible at times... and act like proper adult >_>
I just think that holding the child inside oneself close to the heart, makes life more enjoyable. Never to forget what it was to be a child can get one much further than worrying and stressing about everything.

Nodame-chan · « **Reply #6296 on:** September 04, 2013, 06:12:56 PM »

* Nodame-chan yawns.

Today was a tiring day. Made tow offers, and a comparison. Plus didn't sleep all that well.
Time for some animu~

harpy · « **Reply #6297 on:** September 04, 2013, 06:23:06 PM »

He he he, my English in the beginning was impossible to understand. It have become a bit better now. At least I hope it have

Hm, I supposed my first post (thank god) can not be found...

mAh I do agree - one do need to keep the child within alive. Life without it is boooooooooooring and depressing.
I do not think I can act like a proper adult, I can give a proper adult advices, but when it comes to my own life it all goes out the window

metro. · « **Reply #6298 on:** September 04, 2013, 06:28:53 PM »

I'm not an adult, it's great.

Although people always think I'm like 23...

harpy · « **Reply #6299 on:** September 04, 2013, 06:32:01 PM »

I also thought you were older then you are.
You do not seem to be able to be just plain silly, you are always sooo serious and down to the ground when you post here.
I thought you might be my age or close to it. People who get as old as I am usually go all wise and serious and so on.
