COLOR TEXT IS FUN!
Deep down, we all seek attention.

Re: I seek attention
I did actually pay him the respect of reading all of that because he did go to the trouble of writing it for me.
If anything I do or say on this forum seems arrogant, it either (a) was not intended to be so, or (b) was done/said in an ironic sense, i.e. pretending to be awesome when I'm not. The latter is when I'm being 0% serious. lol
To be honest, buddy, I think you're really overanalyzing why I do use the font. I just like it, and I use it to distnguish my posts from the posts of other people. Funnily enough, seeing purple has some sort of calming effect on me. It seems to have the opposite effect on other people. I don't know what it is, it's just nice to see. Believe it or not, I won't lose any sleep.
I never claimed to write thought-provoking, entertaining or interesting posts. The colour of my font was never meant to have any correlation to that, either.
I will be honest and say that for the most part in terms of gameplay or graphics technology, or in fact games development in general, I know very little. As I'm not much use in the heavier development conversation, I reserve myself for the random personal conversations and cool mods and various other things people come up with. So far in my days on the forum, no one has suddenly turned elitist on me and said "You don't contribute enough to the forums." I don't know, but I do hope someone's glad I'm on the forums.
Anyway, I'm sure it's irritating but I think you'll find it's easier to get over it. Renegayed_Turner got over it, and what was originally everyone being angry at him on my behalf turned into me, him, Blorx and a few others having a super fun conversation about music. I think you'll find it's much better talking about things you like than getting upset/irritated about nothing.
Nothing says other people can't do it, if they want. A dark red or dark green would go pretty nicely and wouldn't hurt anyone's eyes.

Indeed it does.Renegade_Turner wrote:It seems to have the opposite effect on other people.[/color]
Infact, it's kind of weird.
Like I'm being subconciously hypnotised into being angry.
And I don't get angry often. (Course, when I do I freaking EXPLODE)

"Grey" is the colour, "Gray" is the name.

Re: I seek attention
Wow, I'm a little late for this but oh well I suppose, lol...
Also liked the Anberlin CD's that were mentioned, the only one I have completely is New Surrender, and I have about half of the other two albums, started listening to New Surrender today in school actually. They deserve a lot more attention then they're getting.
And I enjoy purple. It's supposed to have a pyshcological effect on people but I can't remember what that is right now. It's just a color but this is pretty funny how much attention it's getting.
I'll check those out when I can, band's like this interest me. Another one is Celldweller which I got really into a while back, still listen to a few of his songs.Renegade_Turner wrote:Yeah there's a few other music projects that follow the same idea, e.g. The Rocket Summer (Bryce Avary) and Arsis (James Malone).
The three bands play REALLY different music though.
Nine Inch Nails is like...industrial music.
The Rocket Summer is pretty much pop rock.
Arsis is melodic death metal. OH YEAH MOTHERFUCKER!

I guess this depends on what country you're in.Renegade_Turner wrote:"Grey" is the colour, "Gray" is the name.
My country wouldn't agree with you.
I, however, would.

Re: I seek attention
Oh, I thought initially you had some sort of problem with me because I was seeking attention or something and because you'd copied the name. It was just a joke, though, I guess. There was really nothing to get over? Sorry, bro.Renegayed_Turner wrote:Got over what?!Renegayed_Turner got over it

Re: I seek attention
I gotta say, you're a pretty arrogant dick. Coming in here thinking that he's being cocky when he's just trying to put a different spin on TEXT of all things, to be fun and then SPEAKING OUT AGAINST IT is a goddamn waste of time. This is the internet. I don't give a damn if it annoys you, choke on your words asshole. We're all here to enjoy ourselves. If we were a high school click, Ren would probably be the party guy. That's just his personality. In fact, we're all chill, ridiculous people, especially in this forum. So really, ignore it and move on or sit here and argue. It's a waste of time to even give a damn about it. IT'S A FUCKING FORUM. GET THE HELL OVER IT.Tonjevic wrote:You misjudge me. I am not angry. Merely irritated.
Anyways, Ren and nero, I've come to like Asher Roth and 3OH!3 as well as LMFAO and Blood on the Dance Floor.
EDIT: ***NOTE: That was probably a bit extreme but him coming in here as a newb that doesn't quite understand this forum and then criticizing one of our respected members for something as small as that is just fucking ridiculous. I mean, it's just a forum...

Re: I seek attention
I think him being new to the forums is a bit irrelevant. He's still entitled to his opinion. Granted, he was still a bit rude in voicing it.
I don't really like 3Oh!3...some of their songs are genius and some of them are godawful. Colorado Sunrise = genius. Richman = good. Electroshock = godawful. I think Breathe Carolina are a better example of a similar type of music.
Don't know who LMFAO are. Did I show you Surrender The Dance Floor? The cover of Just Dance is just sexual.
