Daily Chit-Chat
 
Okay, due to the complete deadness of the DCC in recent months, we, as in Ashley and I, think it would be more practical to just have one Daily Chit-Chat thread instead of monthly ones. If the DCC picks up in future months, we'll revert back to monthly or seasonal DCCs, but for now, we're just going to have the one thread.

Don't forget that the Other Chat rules apply when posting in thread, but more specially the chit-chat thread rules at the bottom.

Any questions you may have can be directed to myself or Ashley.

Arcanine July 29th, 2007 8:49 PM

Funny, after all these years it goes back to being a normal DCC. XD

Alex_ July 29th, 2007 8:51 PM

This is just like the good ol' days.

Drummershuff July 29th, 2007 8:51 PM

I know, who would have thought. XD But will little under 450 posts in a month, there's simply no point in having a thread for a new month. I mean, it'll take a whole year, if things stay the same as they are, for this thread to be big as one of the smaller monthly DCC from last year.

Jack O'Neill July 29th, 2007 8:58 PM

So, the monthly format has finally been abandoned. No opinion one way or the other.

Arcanine July 29th, 2007 9:00 PM

I wonder if people will be all "OMG NOOOOO I want monthly back!!!". If so then it'd be funny, seeing how everyone did that when we went from normal to Monthly, to Seasonal and so on. XD
We've come full circle with the DCC.

Karasuma July 29th, 2007 9:02 PM

I doubt it, though there are people who love to have their names up as the highest posters...

but wow haven't seen this thread since back in the old days of 05 or older.

Merzbau July 29th, 2007 11:06 PM

Lol, wow. No more monthly chat that I never respond to.

And REALLY wow.

Every person that posted before me so far are PC vets.

MAN I haven't seen you guys in a while. How are you guys doing?

Jack O'Neill July 29th, 2007 11:14 PM

We're all veterans up in here? I didn't even notice until you brought it up. O.o;

Hakeen July 29th, 2007 11:21 PM

Having only one DCC might make me post in here more. I might aswell subscribe to the thread now, not like I look in the subbies anymore. And the thing about the veterans only posting, Matt posted, and he like joined a month after me, so does that make me one? *Answers self* no. XD

Ullion July 29th, 2007 11:33 PM

I agree with Nica. Matt joined slightly before I, I think. ANd I ain't no vet here in PC, and I doubt Nica or Matt are. /=

Anyways, tis cool, maybe if you start to make the rest of PC follow suit, maybe PC will hit it's Golden Age again? ;D

Hakeen July 29th, 2007 11:44 PM

Eight months is slightly? XD At least I was agreed with~

Jack O'Neill July 29th, 2007 11:54 PM

Veterancy is, for the most part, way too subjective a concept as far as forum membership is concerned.

oh crap. I thought Mattie-chan joined around June 2006.... man... I gotta get my head straight. I was thinkin' of Ray-chizzle. When I saw your profile, Nica, it said "April 2007" I mistook it as the april before I joined. Sorry for the mistake. <.<

Hakeen July 29th, 2007 11:58 PM

You could've easily looked at Matt's profile though. XD

Ullion July 30th, 2007 12:04 AM

Yours was a lot closer though. And I meant mini profile (the one on the far right on your posts).

So I guess that means I'm the newest member to post in here then? Wow... way to make me feel young and insignificant you guys. D:

Well, you've been here for at least a year now, so you aren't as young and insignificant as you make yourself out to be.

Hakeen July 30th, 2007 12:06 AM

Kyle~(Only saying name 'cause Jack beat me.. ugh) Yeah, I knew which profile type you meant. And actually with the youngest part... I am, well, from what I know and can see. One has their age hidden though, so I don't know. XD

Ayano Katagiri July 30th, 2007 12:23 AM

Whoa, I've missed quite a bit in the past week being away for a bit. Now the DCCs have become one DCC? xD Sweet~ only one place to look from now on.

It's sad how the DCC is going down, and being more inactive.

Awesome. I have a question for Flava.
Do you EVER get tired of DCC? :-p

Hideki~kun July 30th, 2007 4:23 AM

One DCC? xD

Then again I think I've only ever posted like, once in the DCC I'm pretty new here too, xDD

RYOUKI July 30th, 2007 6:20 AM

Hmm, I never actually thought that The DCC became a Normal DCC...
which reminds me, I had a dream last night that this would happen :X
Well, It's in my dream..so I might be Psychi...Oooh Spooky..xD

Drummershuff July 30th, 2007 6:28 AM

You... you had a dream that the monthly DCCs would be turned into one big one? O_o

Well yeah, It all started when..*Flashback started*
I was browsing in PC and Browsing PB and looking for the Image "Ginban Kaleidoscope"
Anyways, Then I got to the OVP and nothing was there...I recieve a PM from someone and I forgot who it is...
Anyways, I click on the PM and suddenly I was in the OC Forum...
I saw, DCC...Of course I didn't wondered why DCC since I'm not good a analyzing things...
but the DCC thread was made by um...Arcanine..I dunno why, though
Well I usually have dreams that will happen...but I mostly for got that dreams and just remembered it when that happened O.o

I find it sad to dream about anything that deals with the internet.

Hideki~kun July 30th, 2007 7:54 AM

Ryouki, you have some weird ass dreams, xDD

But I did once have a dream about Pokémon FR and I went to the safari zone and everything was shiny and there was a dark green shiny Charizard... Umm, yeah.

Emma July 30th, 2007 12:10 PM

Only one DCC now. .O.

I don't think I've ever dreamt anything to do with the internet... well, if I did; I can't remember it. XD I've dreamt a lot about games I've played though and books I've read. D:

Jack O'Neill July 30th, 2007 12:25 PM

To the best of my knowledge, I have never dreamt about anything pertaining to the Internet.

Same with me, I do dream about the last T.V. show I watched about falling asleep. I especially like it when I watch a reality TV show. Seriously I dream I'm on fear factor sometimes. It's creepy. If I watch "Who wants to be a millionaire" I win a million dollars, :) and usually if I watch an Action, yeah you know what happens. If I watch one of my little brothers movies. It gets creepy.

Ullion July 30th, 2007 1:09 PM

I'm quite sure I've had dreams about the internet; mostly related to games though. and maybe some inappropriate stuff too *whistle*

But Ryouki, that happens to me a lot too. Its kinda like deja vu, but you see it in your dreams instead of your imagination. Although it happens to me both ways.

Wait... does deja vu only come from dreams... or something? Mon dieu, je senti comme un idiote. D:

Chikara July 30th, 2007 2:08 PM

I had a dream about logging on and I was an admin out of NOWHERE. I was all 'woah'...

But besides that, I haven't had anything like that ^^'

Kyle: I think it does. I can sometimes remember waking up to a dream, and when the actual thing happens, I really do remember having that dream.. Or maybe I'm just weird XD

Cherrim July 30th, 2007 2:10 PM

I know I've dreamt about people I've met on the internet, and I'm sure I've dreamt about something happening ON the internet, I just can't remember a dream like that. :x

Also, lol. Never thought I'd see the DCC revert back to one thread. :o

Chikara July 30th, 2007 2:13 PM

True, true. Dreams about people online happen a lot I've heard. I had a dream about kay11190 from WAY back when, back when I talked to him everyday ;o;

Cherrim July 30th, 2007 2:16 PM

Well, it's understandable, since a lot of people speak to their online friends just as often as their "real life" friends. I know it's that way for me now as it is every summer. :x

Chikara July 30th, 2007 2:18 PM

Yep, I actually talk to some of my online friends more than my irl friends for some reason. Either they don't pick up their phone, or they're just way to busy to talk to me ;o;

Cherrim July 30th, 2007 2:28 PM

Haha, I hate phones. I only talk to IRL friends now if we arrange to get together somewhere or else online and more often the latter. During the school year I'd see them all at school, but during the summer our means of contact are really no different from online friends. XD; And from now on it'll be the same since we're all going to different universities. ;_;'

Dawg 2005 July 30th, 2007 3:35 PM

I like phones, I think. XD I usually just text or call like two friends. Oh chyeah.

I didn't think the DCC would come to this. D: Oh well.

Chikara July 30th, 2007 3:49 PM

I'm the only one in my family who actually used the phone of cell. I waste SO many minutes chatting it up to mainly two people XD

*nod nod* Wasn't it like this way back when?

Emma July 30th, 2007 3:49 PM

I rarely use my phone. I occassionally get texts and phonecalls but usually if my friends want to contact me. They talk to me on MSN, seeing as it's free and I'm on there most of the time anyway. XD;

The Daily Chit-Chat doesn't seem too bad, but I hope it gets more active than it has been the past few months. D:

Hakeen July 30th, 2007 4:04 PM

Awz, I just missed the dreams topic, if only they all lived in the southern hemisphere. XD

Phones are totally never used by me anyway, somebody just called wrong number then... I didn't wanna answer but I had to. XD

Chikara July 30th, 2007 4:08 PM

If only, if only XD

I must be the only phone freak on PC then D:


Cherrim July 30th, 2007 4:10 PM

Oh, I like my cell phone...but that's only because I've downloaded games on it and use it to check my e-mail when I'm bored and away from a source of internet. That's why I want a Blackberry for my next mobile instead of a traditional phone; it'll be more useful for me. XD;

Wish July 30th, 2007 4:20 PM

I like my cell phone even when no one calls me. E-mail is the number one thing I check once I get home, When I'm away, I have no other access to the internet, besides my cell phone. So I use it to check my email from my friends.

Cherrim July 30th, 2007 4:58 PM

Well, glad to see I'm not the only one then. XD;

Really, the main reason I want a new phone is just so I can have a better screen to view e-mail on, whether or not it's actually a Blackberry or not. :|

My dad has a Blackberry. A funy incident in church happened. Since his pockets are usually stufffed. Every time it pressed against his pants, It beeped. So it keeped beeping and everyone was looking at us.

Alex_ July 30th, 2007 5:10 PM

I got the internet taken away from my phone since we got a bill that was through the roof, mainly due to me.

My bill is high, and my cell phone is sitting on my night desk not charged in ages :P

Alex_ July 30th, 2007 5:18 PM

I need new battery for mine because It dies all the time for no reason.

Wish July 30th, 2007 5:24 PM

I just either leave it on my nightstand or plugged up in the wall.

Alex_ July 30th, 2007 5:27 PM

I have no open plugs in my room so I have to charge mine using my parents charger, which is usually already in use when I need it.

Warheart July 30th, 2007 5:29 PM

Meh, I use my phone to make calls alot, and I'm one of those people who could sit there talking to the same person about whatever goes through my mind for the longest time, but there is something about actually reciving a call that just irritates me.

Basically, I make a rediculous amount of phone calls each month, but for some reason I hate picking up phone calls I get from other people xD

i have had the same phone for like, a year, and to be honest, i really don't plan on getting a new one until this one is just entirely busted up, beyond the point of getting in no use xD

Wish July 30th, 2007 5:29 PM

I usually end up un-plugging stuff in my room to charge things ><

Cherrim July 30th, 2007 5:31 PM

I don't use my phone for anything that can charge me except the occasional e-mail check. xD I'm on a prepaid plan so I don't really have to worry about the bill. :x

Not that I use my phone much anyway. I just check e-mail on vacations or something. xD Usually it sits in my room either charging or dead.

Ullion July 30th, 2007 5:32 PM

I hardly use my phone anymore. I feel like I don't have irl friends anymore. THANKS PC! O< I talk to most people over MSN, I don't own a cell phone (why the hell would I need one?) and most people that I do talk to are Marzy, Mattie-Chan and a few others from PC. So, yah. I've isolated my life... ya wanna fight about it?

And I actually figured something like this would happen. The DCC area is really inactive... so, yah. x:

Arcanine July 30th, 2007 6:52 PM

Blah, you people and cell phones. Got to get some fancy looking thing that's all sleek and looks nice. XD
Right now, I'm cellphoneless. If I want to call someone we got 2 cells and a land line. But maybe in a week or two I'll be getting my own cell (due to me getting off my butt and going to get my license). It's going to be a nice, Fire MotoKRZR. Can't wait. XD
Wait, forget the first line I said... XD

Manaphy1128 July 30th, 2007 7:05 PM

I seriously don't see the use of a cell phone that has all the added stuff.A cell phone.Y'know.To make calls.Geez....
Of course I really shouldn't say stuff like this....Well drat!I just said it out loud!But,still.Why do peope need that stuff on a cell phone....?

And what's the problem with having all of that? Makes the phone more appealing.

Manaphy1128 July 30th, 2007 7:21 PM

But in reality,the whole reason of a cell phone is to make calls when your not at your house.If I get a cell phone,it wouldn't have the extra stuff.I seriously don't think more stuff could make it appealing to me.or someone else.Alas,everyones entiteled to their opinon,so do as you wish.

If that was the whole reason, then companies wouldn't be adding more and more features like customized ringtones, downloadable games and applications, text/image messaging, internet support, and more, now would they? :P

I wouldn't say that's the case for most people... like I have a phone and it's not the flashiest, best one out but still works fine. I mainly use it for the Java games that I've been downloading and texting. That's like it, unless I use the camera when needed to take photos with no other camera at hand. It's actually quite handy IMO to have a cell phone, capable of more than just calling and text messaging. But sometimes, some phones do go quite overboard, even if they have cool applications.

I agree with you on that. Technology is better these days. I don't want to be stuck with a cheap phone with calling and texting. I also use E-mail, Camera, Ringtones, Games, and most of the cell phone's applications. That's why I still love my phone.

I got one of those old bricks out the other day to have a look and I was like O.o when comparing it to my phone. xDD It didn't even have a colour screen!!

I actually try not using the texting and calling, it's so expensive and I just don't have the money to top up all the time D: which sucks. I'm reduced to, non-costing, easily accessible applications such as MP3 and gaming which I suppose is good enough on a phone although the screen's rather small. If it weren't so expensive for everything and say I had a bit more money to spend...

I usually try calling on the weekends, where it's free. I have no use using my cell phone on the weekdays anyway. I just go straight home after school. I might as well use the home phone.

Free? Lucky!! Texting used to be free here in the weekends, but not anymore which kinda sucks. Calling costs too much for me on my plan, so I just stick to texts if I can.

I rarely use my cell phone at school to be honest... it's at home when I use it more. Weird, huh? People never text me during the day... xDD

*pokes clock* Happy August all!! August came by quickly....

It might be August for you guys, but us Americans have to wait one more day.

It became August 20mins ago, but I only just noticed... wow.
July sorta seemed to fly by quickly, I don't remember much of July.

Honestly, Me neither. July also went by quickly for me.

The only good thing and highlight of July was July fools. XD

I still have three-ish hours of July though, so maybe something big might happen within that time.

Me going to bed when I'm supposed to is classified as a big thing as it never happens. XD

Hideki~kun July 31st, 2007 5:10 AM

It's like, 10 hours till August here, xD.
July was pretty quick, nothing really happened to me. :/

Chikara July 31st, 2007 5:11 AM

July went by so slowly for me because I had a shot waiting for me on the 31st. I just got back from getting it, and it HURT D:

I can't wait for school to start again, though. I'm bored with summer -.-'

That's how I feel, I get to see my IRL friends more often, but then I get to see my PC friends less :(

Cherrim July 31st, 2007 9:02 AM

Man, summer's half-over already? I don't want it to end; I have to move out in September and it's scary to think of that. XD;

Though admittedly, I'm getting rather bored of summer too. :\

Dawson July 31st, 2007 12:19 PM

Summer's only just begun in England. Most schools only ended last week, and today has been the first day of actual summer weather, instead of the insane floods we've been having for the past four weeks.

Eruption July 31st, 2007 12:21 PM

In my part of England, we've had summer weather for over a week now.

Cherrim July 31st, 2007 12:21 PM

Really? I thought schools got out around the same time both in Canada and England. o.o; So do schools there go back in...October? Or is it just a shorter break?

Eruption July 31st, 2007 12:22 PM

Probably shorter.

We go back in September.

Cherrim July 31st, 2007 12:25 PM

Then yes it is, 'cause we get from June to September off here. :\

You must have shorter days or more holidays interspersed during the year then.

Alex_ July 31st, 2007 12:26 PM

I have school in less than two weeks unfortunately.

Well our holidays.

It Usually goes:
Half Term October - 1 week.
Christmas December - just over 2 weeks.
Half Term March, I think. - 1 Week.
Easter, April - 1 Week.

So 5 weeks approx. each year.

Cherrim July 31st, 2007 12:31 PM

School doesn't start until September here. I move into my dorm and go to orientation/icebreakers for the first week of September, but my actual classes don't start until the second week of September. o.o

edit: Ah, that makes more sense, Tylphosion-Ex. Here, we get a two week break for Christmas and a week off for Spring Break, but that's it. We get the Friday and Monday off at Easter, and random PD days dispersed through the year, but the rest of our break is for summer. :x

Dawson July 31st, 2007 12:33 PM

England gets completely screwed when it comes to school vacations. The summer break is only six weeks long at the moment and the government have been planning on shortening that to just four weeks in the next year or two.

Eruption July 31st, 2007 12:34 PM

Oh yeah forgot to mention the PD days we have too.

Cherrim July 31st, 2007 12:39 PM

Ouch. o_o; Just four weeks? I can see why they're doing that--kids will retain more information better if they're only out of school for a short time as opposed to two months--but I'd complain if it happened to me anyway. XD; How long is a typical schoolday there?

Depends on the school.

My primary was 6 hr 20 mins.

But My secondary that I'm going to is 6 hr 25, 7 hr 25 on Mondays.


All times are GMT -8. The time now is 11:31 PM.
