Oh your welcome ^.^ Honestly your correct there are tons of trolls, however I personally tend to focus on issues that have been reported to us by users first . So, if there was a report on your thread then I would immediately take action on what was reported. It's nothing personal it's just way to difficult to go through each and every thread considering that there are over hundreds of replies each day made on the site. Although, I do go over some threads that have lots of traffic just to see if I can catch something before it get's out of hand.

But, in regards to your post in particular post there were several reports of trolling/flaming. Also, there are hundreds of posts a day so that we don't catch all that don't really create a discussion they are a little harder to spot than a simple VS thread or Personal thread. There is a really simple trick to creating a good discussion by simply adding: "Also, please add your reasoning to your response and why it differers/similar to my response."

Also, sorry for the mixed responses there are 8 forum moderators and we all come on different times. It's difficult to track down who did what since not all the mods have the ability to see who did what. I believe that only administrators and site moderators have that ability. So, in trying to respond to you it is much easer to just go to the closed post to figure out why a forum moderator would close a thread than to ask a site moderator which forum moderator closed the thread and why. Also, please consider that we [mods] are human and make mistakes too so I apologize for the mixup. I'm sure whoever responded first figured out that they were not the person who initially closed the thread and retracted their answer. Sorry again, also if you have any questions feel free to PM me.


Np and thanks for the explanation, but you didn't have to apologize.

Well I need advice ^.^

I've been super busy with work lately. I work in a lab as a lab tech & as a youth librarian at the central library. What are some suggestions of being able to relax when my time is so limited? I tried yoga, watching anime, going to the beach, randomly driving around. But, I feel like I just need to work. So for all you work-a-holics what do you do to relax and not think about work?

Don't feel too guilty about being a busy person, it's just the way some of us are. ;)

I found that just starting something and keeping it going worked for me. I try to read 30 minutes a day. I also like to cook so that's an activity that sort of feels like work but it's relaxing too...until you have to wash the dishes...or you make something that's a disaster.

Well, Nyuboom All you got to do is divide the number in the www.playlist.com/playlist/ by 256. Then paste the number in the purple area here:


<param name="flashvars" value="config=http://www.playlist.com/config_black_noautostart.xml&amp;mywidth=470&amp;myheight=375&amp;playlist_url=http://www.playlist.com/ext/playlist/pl.php?playlist=#######&amp;t=1360187006386&amp;wid=os">

Good question. I work all the time. Here are a couple suggestions:

- Launch a Start-Up. I'm serious. Take that energy, pour it into an idea, shop for funding, and launch it. The satisfaction you'll receive from the entire process is awesome. You can do this in your off time. It does NOT need to be your main job. Unless...it become wildly popular. At which point, flip out your day job. If you fail, look back and grin.

- Volunteer. People are endlessly in need. You have skills? You have an itch to continue working outside of working, but don't want to think about work? Volunteer and leave a positive foot print upon this Earth before you go. Make a difference without asking for something in return.

After that, if I do one of three things:

- Work on finishing my book (writing a book is awesome).
- Read (I want to know what I don't know I know).
- Travel (I love to skin dive & free dive).

Why thank you! I really resonate with all of your suggestions. I'm trying to walk more and it's helping me relax a little. I'm also trying to cook something new. I haven't volunteered in a long time and I remember really enjoying it. I think I will try to help out at the local soup kitchen. I like the feeling of being productive and by helping others can inadvertently help me as well. Thanks for all of your suggestions!

Hey guys!


As a kid I watched a tv show/movie that I remember I found to be scary, but very entertaining. The problem I have is that I don't remember what the show/movie was called. I can only remember parts and I was hoping that you can help me identify the show:)

Here are some stuff I remember:

- Cartoon/anime
- Main antagonist: Old witch with big eyes and a head garment that had to cones sticking out like horns.
- There was a big black magical mirror (I think the story was centered around the mirror).
- From the 1990s.

I live in Norway, but it could have been aired on any scandinavian channel. But I don't know the original airing channel.




I hope you can help! Thnx!

Anyways i am a huge procrastinator when it comes to school. On top of that i have found no positive way to study or even help me when trying to memorize things with school. I've even tried to find a way to incorporate anime into my studying to find a way to make studying fun and easy for me to memorize things. High school didn't give me any tips when it came to studying in college.

I'm the type of person who just can't read a book and learn that way. When i read all it does is put me to sleep and i end up not learning a dang thing. On top of that i work which cuts into my studying time. When i'm not working or going to school i love to spend my free time watching anime since who needs friends hah. I have all my fellow anime watchers on here to talk to.

I was wondering if anybody had any good ways that they use to help them study or memorize things. Memorizing has always been a big issue with me like trying to memorize the parts of the brain, vocabulary words of things like that. If anyone has a fun way of doing so that works for them, I would love to try them out. All of this is stressing me out cause i really would not like to fail my college classes. So if anybody could help me out i would be so indebted to you and love you forever. Thank you

What do you do when a girl you like asks out your really good friends who knew you liked her? I'm not angry at him, well just a little, but i'm more angry at life. He said he was sorry, and I forgave him. But I just really want to hit something, i'm so angry.

BTW i'm new to the forum, probably should've started with that.
