You might not like the more actiony parts of Walking Dead when they have to deal with well... the Walking Dead aka the zombies. It's not too terrible but it can spook you if you're unprepared for it. But my memory of TWD is actually pretty bad right now so some others who are up to date on it could probably give you a more accurate answer.
|
^I don't think I can afford to watch a show like this in the middle of the semester, unfortunately.
|
I don't find it too scary, but rather just really intense. However some scenes will spook you a bit especially if you aren't into the horror genre.
|
i've never watched the walking dead. i don't like scary shows. i'll get nightmares.
|
I understand TWD is scary and it's not for everyone. I don't like scary shows either, and i refuse to watch horror movies myself, but I watched it because it had a storyline that's captivating. Not like other shows/moves that only has the objective of "RUN AWAY THERE'S A DANG MONSTER AROUND US".
|
I'm still waiting for the zombie craze to end and the robot apocalypse craze to begin.
Zombie shows and movies are too cowboy for me. |
Why are we talking about zombies in September? Can't it just wait until next month when it's actually an appropriate topic? xD
Nah jk.. I like me a good horror discussion every now and then. Zombies are probably one of the things I like when it comes to horror stories as well.. |
It is really hard to find a good horror movie now it seems. Most to me are so cheesy have don't have any plot at all. I guess that is the reason that I appreciate TWD so much because it actually does have a plot.
|
Is it bad enough that I looked back a few pages to see TWD discussion originates from page 2 and we're on page 5? Damn -.-
I really wish I had access somehow to watch the show but I really don't at all, and you guys are making me want to watch it now |

Uy, Netflix.. I wish I had the money to cough up to use it but I don't >__> and too bad AMC doesn't put their shows up on Hulu either, because at least with Hulu you can watch stuff for free and they'd insert advertisements, which I don't mind at all
|
Quote:
Yeah, I wish you could get Netflix because it is really the most amazing thing ever ;~;. I've never actually used Hulu as far as I can remember, but I wouldn't mind a few advertisements either as long as it was free! |
Quote:
I'll just have to talk with my parents and see if they're willing to get a Netflix account for streaming only, which is unlimited IIRC and it's under $10 a month. |
I heard season 3 of TWD is on netflix already? I've been watching it on a third party website...with ads >_>
Also, I am so pumped for Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D tonight. Too bad I can only DVR it since I'll be in class. Anyone else pumped? |
Isn't it set to premier at eight o'clock tonight on ABC? I'll try my best to watch it, since I'm a big fan of action shows. (: If I'm unable to catch it, then I'll try to view it on Hulu if they have it there.
|
Yeah, it is set to premiere at 8 pm...which is right now for you east coasters. I think it's a better time for me to get off Tumblr to avoid any spoilers. xD
|
Quote:
Isn't Tumblr the best thing ever? I don't have an account yet, but I know that it always has the best images and everything. I need to stop procrastinating registering for it ;~; |
DOOOOOOOO IT. People turn away from tumblr because they're afraid of porn but today that's been improved greatly and tumblr is doing their best in setting aside porn away from blogs that don't want any.
well, time for class. see ya PC :) |
I registered for Tumblr so I can follow a few people for their artwork and make searching easier. I don't really actually use my tumblr. Maybe I should more often idk haha.
|
Quote:
That is the reason that I plan to register haha. I don't really care about using it outside of searching for images and gifs :3 |
I have no use for tumblr, Ive been nagged to get one a few times but Id never use it.
|
I love Tumblr! I mainly like to follow a lot of fandoms on it, and Pokemon news and fanart obviously. I tend to reblog loads of stuff that catches my eye, because I sometimes plan to use images I find there for my avatars or sigs. In fact, first thing I usually do there every day is see if any Pokemon X & Y stuff has been posted while I was sleeping. I do have loads of diverse taste so no surprise if you see so many different stuff on my page.
|
Maybe I should join in the Tumblr trend and register too. I mainly use it to search for cool pictures.
|
What, Tumblr was an issue because of porn? How come I'm just finding out about this? o_o
|
I also had no idea that porn was so prominent on Tumblr. I knew that people posted it, but I never thought that it was frequent enough to be an issue D:
|
I know I've run into a few porn here and there as far as Tumblr goes, but you won't see any of it on my page because I want to keep it friendly for any of you who visits it. But it's always annoying when I try to find fanart of certain anime characters and there's loads of like, hentai in the tag.
|
I've never encountered it myself (maybe once or twice? Maybe?) but maybe it's because all the tags I look at just don't have that sort of thing. At least not recently and I rarely have the time or patience to go through a whole tag.
|
I had a ton of it on my last blog, but I deleted that.
Now it's soooo hard to find it, even if you're looking for it. WHAAH! 8(((( |

And ew @ porn on tumblr.. at least it's not 4chan or something along those lines. |

I'm not a big follower of social media, so unfortunately, I don't have Facebook, Twitter, Tumblr, or any of that stuff. I do have have a deviantART account though, but I haven't logged into it at all within the last six to eight months. ): I've uploaded only two or three art pieces over there, and maybe a few of my Pokémon sprites, too, and that should be it. Nobody posted any comments on them whatsoever, so that was a little dissapointing. xD"
|
Oh man, life without Facebook.
I don't think I'd survive. Please teach me your ways, Ashley. |
I have a Facebook, but I don't go there. I feel really unpopular there when nobody comments or likes my statuses, and I feel like those have a lot of weight to it.
|
I don't have a Facebook either and I survive just fine :D I did have a Myspace though back when that was a thing. Other than that, I am not a huge fan of social media and I don't even have a Twitter.
|
Pretty much the same with me.. I have a Facebook and I maybe only check it once a day these days since I'm never in contact with anyone I know and no one ever really pays attention to my statuses except for maybe my dad and when my ex was still friends with me she commented on anything and everything I posted.
|
I use Facebook, but I'm more of a lurker and almost never post anything. It's just helpful for staying in contact with friends/family who I don't see often. I actually formed a friendship with a cousin over facebook, even though we live in different portions of the country and have yet to meet face-to-face.
I don't even talk to people much there, and never play games. |

Quote:
And I use Facebook way to much, mainly to keep in contact with everyone. It's also just helpful when it comes to work any such. I'm seriously in awe with you guys who don't use it xD |
The only reason I would have a Facebook profile is to chat with friends and play games. But I already have Skype for all of my chat-related needs though, and I'm really not that interested in any of the games that they have to offer. D: Some of their games do sound fun, but there's a lot of other games on my hands right now that I need to get done first. By the time I'm finished with these games, Pokémon X and Y would be released, which would have me stay away from Facebook games even more.
|
Hm, that's my problem I guess. I don't know anyone who puts a big emphasis on Skype. I'd probably use it a lot more if there was people who did. I never have played any Facebook games, though. D=
|
I do! Come skype with us D:
|
Skype is really great to me. It is the best way for me to stay in contact with my friends here at PC because I don't text everyone and VMs can be a hassel, however Skype is so much easier and I am on it quite a bit.
|
Skype makes it much easier to stay in contact with your PC friends, I agree. We should all make a Skype chatroom one day, and allow everybody to join in. o: It should be a lot of fun. Skype chatrooms last forever (well, unless the owners delete them, of course), so that's a good thing. Whenever we log into our Skype, this would enable us to find all of our PC pals in one convenient place!
|
Hehe, we kinda sorta already have one :P
|
Quote:
I just find it so much more convenient as it automatically opens when I turn on my computer so all I have to do is switch to online mode when I want to talk to someone. |
Oh dude yeah! VM or PM or whatever man!
|
Quote:
I think I've added about 40 PC members now on Skype and I hope it will be a good way to stay in touch with some even after others and I have left this place. |
I haven't really been getting messages on skype aha. Other than two - four people and a conversation I'm always in I don't really chat. No wonder why I forget I'm online whenever I'm on busy. Gah I have such a lonely life but at the same time considering how often I leave my laptop and such it's not that bad I guess??
|
Yeah...I don't want to go in-depth (or even sound perverted in any way), but tumblr was used to host a LOT of HQ pornographic images & gifs and people would reblog them for their own pleasure. And even the person reblogging that stuff says their blog is SFW, once you reblog that it's not really SFW anymore and that really bothers a lot of tumblr users who are trying to steer away from it or deleting their accounts because of it.
Thank goodness for the "filter" option. That saves us all. EDIT: OH WOW I WASN'T AWARE THERE WAS A NEW PAGE GDI DCC. i also have a skype guys, it's my main way of communication because screw social media and stuff :P it's on my profile if ya want it. xD |
Quote:
lol! I get so frustrated when the DCC doesn't take me to the current page XD |
baha I get frustrated when any thread doesn't take me to the current pages. Especially in the forum game sections where making sure you're on the right page and posting the right thing is important for most games.
Ugh I hate how one of my sections is still 'trivia' and the other one is 'game'. I wish there could be some consistency without changing PT to Pokemon Forum Games because that's lame and long. |
Quote:
|
That's why Other Trivia (other than taking 'Other' out of the game) was eventually changed to Forum Games haha. But Pokemon Trivia is stuck in that awkward that is still being called a 'trivia' section when its not really one and not wanting that dumb long name.
Buuut at least the PokeTrivia League has trivial quizzes and such in it from time to time. ♥ |

I really don't understand Social Media.
I use my Facebook for sometimes contact but pretty much as a central news station where the tech sites I liked share updates that they posted. Plus all my stuff is pretty much ignored. And the games, ugh. Google + is better with games. :3 I have a twitter to use it when I need to, but I don't like post updates. Instagram and Snapchat are just horrible creations. I have a tumblr, why.. I don't know. Don't go on it often if at all. Seems way to un organized. I just get my images from facebook, shared from tumblr. :P yeah. |
I lurk my facebook and I don't really talk to people much on Skype either - generally speaking. I'm usually bouncing towards and away from my laptop so I always keep my status as "away" as I've upset people before when I've suddenly disappeared from the computer but left my status as available.
|
Social media is just "meh" to me these days.. there are times when I want to be active in social media and times when I don't want to be active in social media at all.. right now, it's one of those times where I prefer to be inactive since I'm mostly on PC these days whenever I browse the internet, and browsing PC keeps me far from being bored at this point in time.

|
I'd rather get stuck on a different page of a thread here rather than get ninja'd.. but I guess I should mention it's a habit of mine to always make sure I'm on the newest page as well before I post.
|
It's hard to make posts on a thread that's moving fast for whatever reason :)
|
I have Facebook, Twitter and Tumblr accounts. I only use Facebook and Twitter, but not Tumblr anymore - I have no use for it. I'm not very active in Facebook, but I tweet quite frequently. It's one of the ways I express my thoughts I normally won't post on Facebook as I consider Twitter to be more...private in a sense. I usually feel much better after ranting on Twitter about something that's troubling me.
Quote:
|
is it on the last page?
*checks* good. I don't use facebook anymore. It's stupid. I use Twitter but back then I was a huge addict but not so much anymore. Tumblr is my only site now. Now that site is addicting. But I sometimes consider PC as my main form of social media I guess. xD |
It's kinda sad that I have to say I am on PC more than 95% of the time I am online, and I've given up on other communities as well.. I gave up Twitter over a year ago and now I'm giving up Facebook as well, but I don't think I'm finished with facebook just yet, considering that I haven't started school and could make some new friends.
|
I don't think I'll be giving up on anything social anytime soon, seeing as I use them for things other than social networking.
|
I use Facebook and stuff for everything but talking to others right now. I just use it as a means to check up on pages I like.
|
I rarely use FB nowadays. It's been months since I last logged in.
|
Facebook, i have it. Do i use it: no, i dont feel like logging in xD
I also has Twitter which i abuse a lot to express my feelings and problems i have |
I just tried to find my old Myspace page for fun, but I have no idea as to how to login because it as been so long lol.
|
I have no Facebook, and I will never make one.
I had it in the past, but I never used it, so I decided to delete it. |
Quote:
|
Same here. But the only reason I keep mine is so that I can get entered to win stuff or login to other websites without having to register.
Otherwise, my Facebook is dead. :P |
i have a facebook, i don't use it though.
|
I have a facebook. I check in about once a week and I normally just use it to post witty comments to statuses or keep my friends updated on how far my book has progressed. I must say that PC is my main site I spend the most time on. Of course, that time is radically reduced thanks to college...
|
I need a Facebook buddy.
And none of you guys are eligible. >> |
oh haai dere faecbook buddeh :D
brb shall I add you? I must say, i check like max twice a week :\ unless there's business to be done. |
If you can find me, sure! :3
And jeez, everyone I know is so reliant on it. This is shocking, legitimately... |
If you guys can find me on Facebook (which you probably can't), I'll accept if I know you really well haha, but in recent years I have been trying to keep online friends from my Facebook and only focusing on IRL friends.

John, please Google "typographical error".
That is, unless we're both being idiots. Likely, btw. |
LOL i don't know why, but that made me laugh. maybe i am a wittle dwunk. noo dats not true :D
|
LOL you guys.. yes that was a typo indeed and as fast as I actually wound up typing that post (without slamming on my keys like what John does :p), I sub-consciously slipped that through :3c
|
SLAM SLAM SLAM.
Idk, I slam my fingers on the keyboard of my desktop. Feels satisfying. (y) |
Yeah I love slamming tiny things really hard that it makes slapping sounds. That all of yall get to hear on skype. Now if we only had video chat...
|
Little John won't be visible to the naked eye, sorry, m8.
/shot |
Oh gosh, that would be awesome if we were able to have group video chats on Skype :> we could technically if someone payed for group video calling, but I don't know of anyone who does sadly :/
|
Google+ lets you do that for free! ><
|
Eh, Google+ and their hangouts.. I'd rather not mess with those because they tend to drag my computer's CPU up to 100 whenever I get on them and they severely downgrade the quality of one's audio and video compared to Skype as well.
|
I have never actually done a video Skype call. Is the quality pretty good?
|
Never did one either and not planning on doing one tbh.
|
I'd do one with my family or some of my really close friends here, but I am not sure if I would be up for an entire group chat as I get pretty nervous and I don't like the sound of my own voice, haha.

I've never done a Skype video chat, either. I don't think I'd ever do these kind of chats with any of my online friends, to be honest, because I would be extremely shy to see them face-to-face. xD" I would have no problem with video chatting with real-life friends though, since I already know how they look and they know how I look as well. I get to see them in-person ever day, almost.

And Skype is really good with video if you have good bandwidth. If you have an HD webcam (like I do) and good bandwidth, you can do HD video calls! 8) |
I love doing Skype calls! Though I don't do video chats unless I know the people very well. I get shy :$
But for group Skype chats that are just voice only, I'll join in. But I usually say the least because I tend to listen to what's going on instead of inputting stuff. :P |
I don't really get the point of Skype, hence why I still don't use it.
|
I've made a few calls over Skype in the past, but the experience wasn't as great as I thought it would be. I wasn't able to hear the person's voice very clearly, and it kept making some strange noises in the background. Sometimes, it made voices echo as well. Personally, I think it's ten-times better to send out calls with your phone.
|
I've done several Skype voice calls with people. The last time I did one was a while ago though when I was watching an episode of something with few other people. One of my favorite moments of voice chatting with a group of friends would have to be when I was rewatching the episode that we watched earlier, but Went had come and joined us and he actually recorded my reactions to the episode (and the silence which was when I was crying haha). That was a great night. ♥
|
It's actually skype that kicks the CPU levels to the max, which is why I do my calls on my phone rather than on the computer. Plus it helps me maneuver things with less bandwidth. xD
I haven't tried hangouts, actually. I had a friend who encouraged me to do a hangout but tbh I'm still attached to skype lmao. |
I've given Google Hangouts a try with one of my friends before, and it was pretty... interesting. xD I love the user interface that it offers to us. It's extremely simplistic and very easy to navigate. Hangouts doesn't require you to download or install anything, which is good. It also allows you to take control of your friend's desktop, sort of Team Viewer. Oh, and unlike Skype, all of its features are absolutely free of charge. The only bad thing about Hangouts is that it can limit your computer's speed sometimes, especially if it's old. D:
