Oh Gods,
text colours in the
web. Madness!
Inzzzanity! Let's not have "
<blink> and twinkles" yet, then!
I used to have a similar issue in another forum I'm not going to mention
but it features ye goode knowe Yami Ryu, and some others, where not matter how much I emphasized the "default" or resetted cookies, I was left watching some form of forum art painstalkingly ripped off 2001's monolith scene; gods I'm glad for UserCSS since then. Right now I see all your textes in black over silver, with nice almost-blue shadows, people... :D
but thatt's off-the topic.
Mmm... may I be forgetting something?
Oh, yeah the part where I say
Hi people, I'm back! :classic:
I'm all fine and dandy, earthquake issue is momentarily left behind, although my family will have to look for a new home now... Among the first things I did once I got back here, talked to Buoysel who gave me this weird idea, a Skype FFL channel or something. I kinda like the idea, even (more) if it's text-only. :D And since I'm all-for-anonimity like Mizan and at the same time acknowledge the chance of a cabal of fun when it presents itself, I think a sort-of IRC channel would be great. We just need a server...

I'll get one for myself soon.

IDK it sounded like a good idea at the time. (I personally think it would be hilarious.)
I hope it would be the most hilarious if we log the random people that pops in and their reactions:
RING*** RING****!!!
Good morning/afternoon/night/whatever and welcome to the Fanfictoin Lounge Call Center for the Preservation of Insanity Department

Dial "*" to have a random member of the FFL randomly pop up after a random time of inactivity for a random reason. It may randomly not work.
Dial "
M" for Monkey.
Or, just press " ℵ " and hold on the line to reach a human operator.
Meanwhile, enjoy the music.
Music from the Ipanema Evelator MST3K starts rolling...
And Redstar, have you noticed that the FFL explodes in arguments every time you decide to grace us with your presence?
I've lampshaded it at least once. Not that I don't like it -- actually, I find those occurrences to be fundamental to a discussion Lounge among other things because for a discussion to be complete IMHO not only all perspectives must berepresented, but also all vectors. Not that I don't find them funny either, that is, when the FFL isn't temporarily closed as a result.
On the only bold topic I've got to read as of recently (man I'll have to read back so much this time):
How do you treat people when you review? Friendly, serious, or straight to the point?
I go to the point, or at least I try to most of the time. I make a point that I often don't actually have a reason to review, what with me always being late and not being that good with grammar, but I'll always tell people I review the reason(s) I enjoy reading their work and
why, since acknowledging I find a story interesting is to me one of the main benefits of reviewing. I may be friendly as a matter of nature perhaps-- since I mostly review people I already know, and I haven't had the chance to have a reason to be upset while reviewing...
Bottom line: I go to the point. Sort of ironic, is it?

And I'm kind of surprised that most people here seem to show their family and friends their fanfiction.
Yeah. I'd never show my parents or my friends the fics I do. Heck, for the most part I don't show them
any of the web work I do It's not that I don't trust them, it's just I don't trust
people, not in this particular subject.
Also, hi Dagzar!
Also again, guys, we're going to hit the 15Kth post soon. Just wanted people to notice, since the 11Kth to 14Kth milestones haven't been celebrated.
And also for one last time, I promise: I'll retake the FFL Bold Topics Index eventually, dont worry. Thanks to those among you who offered your help, I'll heavily take you into consideration.
