Goodbye dudes!

Aoshi_88 — Thu, 03 Sep 2009 22:54:38 +0800

Meh... might as well do it anyway.

As some of you know, I will be flying off to the UK tomorrow evening.

In any case, it's been fun meeting with you guys, doing random shit and stuff like the LAN party at Fuj's house in Subang. Regretfully, i wasn't able to meet with everyone before i left but for those that i did meet, i hope you had a good time.

To the rest, good luck! May you find success in whatever endeavours you are pursuing.

If any apologies are warranted, i sincerely extend them before i leave. If I've offended you(the last thread notwithstanding because of the amount of trolling by Quaz and Sichiri ) then i truly am sorry.

PS - If there's a single hint of a rant or flame in this here thread, i'll close it down immediately.

An Apology is Warranted

Aoshi_88 — Tue, 14 Jul 2009 01:56:16 +0800

Seeing as I'm the one that gave Artefact the heads-up about Setsuna's issue, i feel it's only appropriate that I issue an apology for doing so.

Truth be told, the news would've gotten out and i did what i did as it felt REALLY ridiculous for Setsuna to do such an act. I am sorry that it happened. However, i never really expected such strong reactions both for and against this issue.

Though for obvious reasons, i cannot and will not apologize for the comments issued by those who hate and dissed what Setsuna did, and those who supported what he did.

For those of you who've supported Setsuna in his action, you just dragged the names of Malaysian fans further through the mud. You've given us a bad name and it was already bad with the attempted stalking of Hirano Aya.

For those of you who've railed and ranted against what Setsuna did, please, do not use this as an excuse to bash Malaysian fans of Minorin in general. Setsuna did what he did in the heat of the moment. Do understand that people have done things from time to time when they're not thinking straight. Setsuna himself has admitted to this.

Again, to Setsuna, I truly am sorry for letting Sankaku have a go at you. It wasn't done with any hostile or bad intentions in mind. I just thought it would be lol-worthy.

It's that time again!

How do you guys plan to go to GACC09 if you ARE going?

Unless you guys want to do an /AS/ convoy or sorts or a meetup in Melaka, i will find alternative transportation and accomodation.

So before that happens and it's too late to plan anything, i would suggest we get down to it. Else we'd all end up doing shit at the last minute.

If the vote is for Sunday, the time remains the same.

QUOTE

The announcement is carried by no less than three magazines (and the early DVD), whose issues we get to see early thanks to the fact that 2ch’s anime boards have any number of denizens who happen to work in the stores getting the magazine stock early. Thus it is beyond doubt.

WHO DONE IT!

Online Love?

Aoshi_88 — Sun, 25 Jan 2009 09:54:11 +0800

http://thestar.com.my/lifestyle/story.asp?...1&sec=lifefocus

QUOTE

I’m still studying and I’m having a weird problem – I’m in love with a girl in an online game. A few months ago, we both become an online couple just for fun in our spare time. But whenever we’re together I feel so happy. She told me that she had a boy friend in real life. But whenever we have problems in real life we would share and talk about it online and help each other out. I’m from a poor family and do not go online so often while she is from a wealthy family and living in another country. She even wanted to put money into my bank account just so that I could accompany her online more often but I refused.

Once when I met with an accident she told me she cried when she heard what had happened. When she broke up with her boy friend, or when she fought with her family, I was the one who was there to comfort her. She too has been there to comfort me when I was down, but I wonder if she feels the same way as me. I hunger for her love even though I know she can only give me what she can online.

I think of meeting her online everyday but I can’t because I have final exams coming soon. I’ve not been studying because of the addiction to this game. I have thought of breaking up with her and quitting the game but I can’t do that as it will hurt her. I feel this has got to come to an end but I don’t know how.

Sad Sad Beast

Love from a distance is always tough. And being online pals makes it tougher especially when you think you’re in love but can’t do much about it.

Well, think of your future to get you going. If you can’t concentrate on your studies and flunk out, you will never have the financial means and resources to meet up with your dream love. Unless you can juggle between these online chats and your studies, you may end up a failure both ways.

It’s great to be young and in love. It’s nice to have someone to share so much with. But at certain times in our lives, we need to make some tough decisions. So take a break and concentrate on your studies. Then pick up on the game if she is still keen. Obsessing is not a good way to spend your time.

You have too much to lose if you do not know how to handle a love that is still so fresh and uncertain. You haven’t met, have never touched and you do not know her outside the virtual world. Be realistic when it comes to living. Many young adults spend too much time pursuing hopes and dreams online.

Sometimes, you need to meet someone in the flesh so that emotions are not hyped up. There is so much you need to know about a real person before you dare believe in love. So do not be afraid to wait, take on chances with other girls you can get to meet. And if this love is true for you, she will be there when both of you are ready.

Now i can't be sure, but there ARE plenty of "females" out there who aren't. *me stares at mootsumi*

EDIT: It is not my intention to make fun of this person but after the incest story which was so much like an actual ero-game, hard not to take notice.
