    Is it bad to post something on someone's profile who has been inactive for X amount of years just to point something out about their profile?

    Also, (correct me if I'm wrong) it's OK to post on a banned user's profile and ask why, right?

    fun fact: in 2019, the forums made a software transition from SMF to Xenforo. while all the posts got transferred over, some elements did not, which includes post likes, meaning that any posts made pre-july 2019 which have likes on them are only there because people specifically went back after the event to relike those posts.

    funner fact: even during the SMF days, likes were not implemented until the beginning of 2016. this means that, in all likelihood, someone who stopped being active before then, such as Propellor Toad, aren't likely to have had many likes even before the forum software changed

    i hope you enjoyed this short forum history lesson. although with that all said, after taking all of the above into account, it makes me wonder what posts of his ended up getting those two reactions, all these years later... :koopa:

    Oh wow. I was not aware of any of that. Interesting...

    I smell a scavenger hunt question right there. Find one of his reactions! That would be craaaazy.

    My mom says I'll never know what it's like to live a normal life because of my year-round allergies.

    Yep. It's interesting how the trends come and go. There was a time when Mindless Junk was by far the most active board (though that was mostly before I joined). Then in 2017 and 2018 the Ask Board was super popular. Now roleplay is the hip new thing, and mafia has come back after being dead since around the beginning of 2018. Who knows what will come next....

    The roleplay/mafia mix y'all have is interesting.

    BlueBerryBlue is asking about what's been going on around the Boards and I don't know what to tell him.

    Anyone got something I could say to him?

    this might sound rude, but i would tell him to disengage for now

    he can't get on the boards for a couple years. i think he should try to find child-friendly spaces that are directed for his age, rather than cling desperately to the boards by making you use all this energy on his behalf

    He honestly depresses me because he tries to act 21. I'm worried about the adults in his life, how much they actually care about him tbh.
    I'm gonna be honest, in Avengers: Age of Ultron when Vision said "I am," I legit thought he was claiming to be God for a good five years. Further explanation below, if you're interested.

    In the Bible, when Moses was confronted by God at the burning bush, Moses asked who he should say sent him after God told him to free the Israelites from Egypt. God answered, "Tell them 'I am who I say I am.'" Later, when people asked who Jesus was, he said "I am," which means he was claiming to be God.

    You can see why this would cause me confusion.

    I asked my dad about it a couple months ago, we looked it up, and Vision was actually referencing the philosopher who said, "I think, therefore I am," meaning that because Vision could think, he was a real person.

    Anyways, the whole thing is pretty funny in retrospection.
    Now that Nintendo owns Next Level Games, should another Punch Out!! game come out, I bet that we'll be seeing another PO rep in Smash. (Maybe Doc Louis or one contender who has trained under everyone else and utilizes their moves?!)

    I'd laugh if it was Glass Joe and he's a joke character like Dan from Street Fighter.

    I feel bad that all I can understand is "Ihre" = "their", "your" (formal) or "her" and "ist" = "is"

    Don't, I just looked up the proper spelling online.

    I haven't properly learnt German ever I just have sort of been interested in it for the last year, albeit I think my interest is waning in the last few months especially with my exams

    Kind of like with video games, whilst they're correlated, liking it and being good at it are separate
    Is it weird that I only really like relationships that are official?

    A matter of who you ask. I don't think it's weird to prefer canon. Some will say it's weird to make ships.

    Nah. When it comes to something like shipping, folks should be able to like what they like without having to justify it. If you only like canon pairings, that's not weird. If you have really strange pulls from across different franchises that nobody else would think of, that's not weird either. In the end, it's a discussion of fictional characters, and the thing about fiction is that it ought to be held up as a mirror to explore and better understand ourselves and our natures. Shipping discussions are a part of that exploration process, y'know? So ship what you want to ship (and, conversely, don't ship what you don't want to) and don't feel self-conscious about it.

    Imagine we wake up tomorrow and it turns out the discontinuation of all this stuff was a very elaborate April Fool's prank.
    The mushroom's hero, with the best 'stache around,
    Is about to be buried six feet underground
    For Nintendo has done so much work
    And now they're really being a jerk
    While he had a good (speed) run
    They're taking away our plumber's fun
    And now we all begin to cry,
    For now we have to say goodbye.
    ... (At least until June when Mario Golf: Super Rush comes out.)

    Even though we had strived
    Now it's the end of thirty-five
    Or maybe a prank,
    But to be frank,
    He probably isn't alive.

    HAH I WROTE THESE IN FIVE MINUTES TAKE THAT WHOEVER DOUBTED ME.
