  1. I see myself staying here for a long time. However, I will be gone for about 22 weeks (or more) because I'm shipping out starting July 7th. When I get settled I will inevitably return to the forums and do the thing I normally do.
  2. What does your scouter say about the user above you's power level? It can be any number but just stay true to your scouter. Trust your scouter and don't crush it because someone's power level is over 9000 ok? I'll go first, The person below me's power level is... 2,532,990!!!
  3. I'd much rather taste all of the rock candy flavors Pinkie has made. Would you rather become the world's strongest human but everyday you have to fight off a super villain or would you rather be the world's smartest human but you have 2 months to figure out how to save the Earth from the sun crashing into it.
  4. One of my favorite breeds is the malamute. What is your favorite genre of music?
  5. I think Star Wars should be left alone. It has had a good run, they need to stop milking the series and let it rest for good. Trying to undo the sequel trilogy could potentially lead to more problems and, as a result, lead to an even bigger divide between the fans. That's what I think at least, for all I know if this rumor truly sees the light of day it may be the best decision George Lucas has ever made. Only time will tell.
  6. Greetings! I hope you'll have a great time here.
  7. I'm bad at programming. I almost lost my laptop because I was messing with stuff I don't know how to operate, heh. Are you good at archery?
  8. Thinking, writing or playing video games usually calms me down.
  9. I love dark chocolate. It tastes wonderful... splendid... STUPENDOUS!!! Maybe I got a bit too carried away there.
  10. Coffee is gross. I like the smell but if I received a cup of coffee I'd probably give it to one of you coffee lovers out there. Raw tomatoes are revolting. I almost threw up one day when I ate a tomato with pepper on it. But the weird thing is, I like ketchup.
  11. I'm not quite sure how promotions are done for certain but I do know that if your boss, commander or team leader gives you the chance you should take it. If you do not take the promotion chances are it'll never show up again or at least for a while. If you are not ready to move up and accept more responsibility then do not take the promotion. If you take the promotion and are not up to the added responsibility you'll put a lot of stress on yourself and you'll most likely under perform and have boss/commander/team leader regret promoting you. Don't sweat it if you miss out on the opportunity to take a promotion, if you work hard enough and be on your A-game then your boss/commander/team leader may see this and be impressed and give you another opportunity to be promoted. I remember on my freshman year I took a few SOPs to rank up from cadet to C/private then next year from C/private to C/private first class and then to C/corporal then next year to C/sergeant and C/staff sergeant. SOPs give you requirements that you need to fulfill in order to rank up. I needed to perform these requirements in front of my Company Commander, Battalion Commander and Army Instructor/ Senior Army Instructor. There are times when I have failed an SOP but I always came back after I studied a bit harder and then aced the SOP. There have been times where I was asked if I would like to be the new Battalion Commander or Command Sergeant Major. I was honored, truly, but I rejected all of the offers not because I just didn't want to but because I knew I wasn't ready for such hard and stressful positions. Sometimes you've gotta take it slow...bro. But if you're a risk taker, go full speed ahead! Summary -If you are ready for a promotion and the opportunity shows itself, go for it! -Don't force yourself to take a promotion and don't regret rejecting the offer. -Work hard for your promotions and impress your boss/commander/team leader, show them that you care about the work you do. Actions speak louder than words. -Don't go in and expect a promotion, you'll be heartbroken. -Take a chill pill and take it slow... (but be consistent).
  12. The final boss in Ninja Gaiden is what keeps me from beating that game. The second phase is bogus! Summer Carnival '92 Recca is just too hard for me for some reason. The last area in Aero Fighters 2 is just unforgiving if you lose all lives and have to continue, it sends you all the way back to the beginning of the level. Gran Turismo 5 Prolouge wasn't hard, I just didn't complete it because I wasn't invested in racing games back then. I got lost in Spyro: Season of Ice and never played the game again. Although I will come back to the game soon. Honorable Mentions: I almost didn't beat Castlevania because of the Death boss fight. He is so hard without holy water I almost rage quit. I almost didn't beat Dragon Ball Z: Ultimate Tenkaichi's Hero mode because of how under leveled I was and how beefed up the bosses were. Shenron was a real pain in the behind because you NEED TO GRIND in order to beat him. I almost didn't beat the Last Blade 2 because of the final boss. Those who played SNK fighter games will understand what SNK boss syndrome is and let me tell you, the final boss is one from the underworld. Luck was actually on my side for this one and boy oh boy did I cry tears of joy once I beat that boss.
  13. Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate was my GAME back then. I used to play whenever I could get the chance to. Online was a blast and the singleplayer mode wasn't something you could just breeze past. I've meet my dream team on there and we used to play all the time together until we just stopped one day (which was very sad for me because our camaraderie was unshakable). I put in a total of 1242 hours and 45 minutes into the game in total and I reckon my comrades have more time in than me.
  14. INFP-T I have to agree with most of the things said as there are some things that don't apply to me. Aside from that I am pleasantly surprised at how detailed and true the description is. Good on the creators of the quiz!
  15. Good day comrade! Enjoy your stay here in the forums.
  16. Greetings comrade! Please enjoy your stay here in the forums.
  17. Give 'em a handshake and a cigar and tell them to "fuhget about it".
  18. Will you please stop camping in the back of the map please.
  19. Ahoy there comrade! Hope you enjoy your stay here in the forums.
  20. Welcome comrade! Hope you enjoy your time here.
  21. Last episode I very briefly touched upon friendly banter with your group leader or commander. Talking with your peers is a great thing but there is a time and place for speaking. I know this is common sense but you'd be surprised at how some do not know when to stop talking and pay attention. When I was 1st Sergeant for Echo Company taking role was atrocious because people would talk while I was taking role. Eventually things got better (thank you sergeant for helping me out with this situation!) and people were more quiet and people found it easier to hear their names when I called them out. Learning when to be all ears and business-like and when to be relaxed and business-like is important to keep you and your commander/team leaders from going bonkers (after all, who likes being yelled at by their commanders? Nobody. P.S. That's another topic for another day). Summary -When your commander/team leader is giving instructions, do not speak. -Listen to the instructions and do not feed into someone else's nonsense. You are more likely to be spotted goofing around than the person who started it. -After all instructions have been given, get to work but most importantly have FUN. Speak to your peers but remember that you've also got work to do so try to balance stuff out. -If your commander/team leader gives you specific orders not to talk, do not talk! ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Have any input or any of your own advice? Please share it with me! See you later and have a good day!
