Re: I'm not dead guys and girls.
Hmm, I think the spammer problems are getting better. I know I sign on everyday after work and I have a message in my inbox about a reported post, then when I check the forums, the thread is gone. So it seems all the mods are doing their jobs just fine. But the biggest flaw in getting rid of spammers is having to go to the Staff Forum and make a post in the "members to ban" thread and wait for the member to get banned. We need a quicker way of getting these members banned. The Infraction system does nothing on spammers as they're only around for like 4-5 posts.
Compare it to the crime rate drop in NYC in the early 90's. One of the biggest problems to stop crime was the amount of time need to fill out an arrest form. Usually to get the perp back to the precinct and fill out the forms, it took a day to get some one's paper work to get filled out. So when happened was that they converted a few retired public transit buses into police stations on wheels and so the police officers could get to one of these places faster and get the paper work filled out in about an hour. This really helped the crime drop. Theres more but I don't feel like explaining it all. You can find it all in the book, The Tipping Point by Malcolm Gladwell.

If you're too low, you're body will go into starvation mode and will hold onto the fat it has and burn muscle for energy. When losing weight, you want to lose fat, not muscle.
I'd rather not hit up a 3 page post here explaining more in depth. If you really want more you can read the
BodyBuilding.com Forums as they have a fantastic losing fat sub section.
If you'd rather not read there, I can get you an eBook as that is fantastic and explains EVERYTHING very well. Just PM me.
Thanks for that link. Definitely found some good tips in there.
Re: I'm not dead guys and girls.
I've been in the sort of weird position of trying to gain weight. In the past year I've put on 10 pounds of muscle. I look a lot better, but I still need to get more organized and get some better results. I'm hoping to gain 5-10 more lbs by the end of 2007 with a focused workout routine and a more substantive diet.
At least I don't look quite so skinny any more. I actually fill out my shirts and look more adult.
Re: I'm not dead guys and girls.
My weight is fine. If anything, I don't weigh enough. 170 lbs. and 6'1". I could use more muscle. It's weird because even though I don't weigh that much, I don't look skinny, I actually still look a little fat if anything.

I'm 6'2 and lost weight before I went in for surgery and then some more in between my first and second. Right now I'm in the 140's, maybe 150's and still need to gain some more weight because of the bar in my body.
I've got a personal trainer I'm working with to help me gain the muscle I need and the extra that I want. Safest way for me with this damn bar in.

I'm a cow. WL gave me that link a long time ago but I forgot about it. *bookmarks this time*
Anyway back on topic,
so yeah. People can change and become better in their own eyes, but when you explain this over the net with the lot of us (zelda freaks and hotties) then you gotta be MODEST!!! :D
Also: Masa, you'll never be admin because you smell like cabbage. :3 srsly, you should be..and me too >:O
Re: I'm not dead guys and girls.
I, too, would like to attack Goki on the grounds that he is Australian and, hence, he is the spawn of degenerate convicts.
There is NO rule number six!
Re: I'm not dead guys and girls.
I dig that goKi is excited about his new lifestyle and thats cool. He may have come off a little strong, but if you know goKi, then you know it's no big deal, and he's most likely not throwing anything in your face.
Bananarama, muthafuckas.

You don't need to be an admin to clean up the forums of spam, which is really teh only thing that needs done around here these days. And Biggiy and Prr have that locked down.
Re: I'm not dead guys and girls.
I never said that Biggiy and prr kitty didn't do a good job .
This side need some things like a good working questdatabase again.
Like I stated before my concerns have to do with the Zelda Part of this forum and nothing with the general or new members forum where those two are doing a good job ;)
