I'm glad you think so. If that was you who registered on my board after I went to bed last night, then you discovered the way that I tell the difference between a real person and a spammer account. Upon registration, everybody is a Restricted Newbie until I manually change the status, thanks to that very useful Default Membergroup on Registration mod. :) 

I just took you off of restriction this morning--sorry for the delay but last night, I kinda just dropped in my tracks, so to speak.

Over the last few days I've got a much better understanding of gri and he is a lot less 'wtf' than I remembered from powerspike.


Sometimes he can seem a bit rude or pushy but I realize that is only because of a language barrier (Russian as a first language and a peculiar way of communicating in English) and it isn't intentional.

Well, he's been badly treated for his odd use of what English he knows and tends to be skeptical.  You can see in this thread why he's skeptical--it's the usual reaction he gets.

He does seem to be demanding but it's because he knows exactly what it is he's after (and I'm afraid I'm still in the dark regarding details of the code he's after, because clearly you two guys are more code savvy than I am). I too am interested in this code, functionality-wise for my own use, and therefore I for one see that it's worth the trouble.

the bible code, aliens in the bible, and hitler.

That, and a lot of what's on the History Channel is BS too. Not to mention the fact that learning anything about Hitler will stop the next genocide. Several have happened since Hitler and we still do nothing about it.

We don't learn about them in the US because we like to pretend no one else in history has been victimized. n_u
Which is also why most people will refer to the Romani as "Gypsies" and there is still discrimination against them in Europe to this day.

The most humorous (or not humorous part) is the Right Wing Extremists Lobby that will defend funding of Israel because jews were targeted in the holocaust but have no issue discriminating against homosexuals, socialists, or many of the other victims that right wingers seem to hate.  >_<'

That's exactly the problem with Zionism--if a person isn't "judeochristian" they don't count. It wasn't that the Jews were targeted--it was ANYBODY who wasn't "aryan", and that includes other Germans. You can thank the Anti-Defamation League for revisionist history and changing the definition of "semite", "semitisim" to refer to only those of the Jewish religion...as it happens, Arabs are semites too.

Hmmm.  Sorry to say, I still haven't learned any Boyahnese yet.

Speaking of things Boyahn, I noticed that all there is in the Arcade is what you got in those gamepaks from SMF--Blocks is defective. I suggest replacing Blocks with a working copy...and maybe adding some different games. Just sayin'.

I don't think half the games work.


I don't even have an aracde pass myself so I haven't checked recently.

and if you're curious as to why it's Aracde and not arcade: Bassir added the buttons to all the SAF themes by copypasting the text with a typo in it.

it was too great to change.

I see. Well, I usually use a capital letter for Arcade because I'm referring to a specific, ergo proper noun, Arcade.  I count only 4 games that don't have any scores whatsoever recorded, so the rest must be operational. I also gather it's not a big thing around here.

It used to be when we first added it after not having it for a year or two.

It died down due to the price of arcade passes which may end up being free or a lot cheaper in the future.

That would be advisable. People who wanna play arcade will play arcade either here or a dedicated arcade board, so you might as well encourage your community to play HERE instead of going off elsewhere, no? Me, I play on both my own board and on 2 other gaming boards and was able to download a working copy of Blocks to install on my own board. And add a whole bunch more cooler games besides.

I don't think the majority of people here play forum arcade games hardly at all to begin with let alone do it off of Boyah. Scaring people off with high prices isn't really a concern because I think Boyagers have really just gotten bored of the games anyway.

Lüts are the Boyagean currency.  baddood;

Terms which may prove useful:


Boyager: A citizen of Boyah. This term was once "Boyaholic" until it was pointed out that this sounded fucking homosexual.
Boyagean: Of, and relating to, Boyah.  Also a language Zidone once put effort into creating.
Lüts: The Boyagean currency used by Boyagers
Aracde: The arcade of Boyah
Doodthing: Our benevolent creator and deity who has manifested himself as a squid. It may be noted that he fought Jesus Christ last May and prevented the rapture. It is one of the highest sins to call him a tooth.
The Boble: 'Twas the holy text of Doodthing before it was lost in the great Valentrinnian Exodus.
