Okay: some clarifications people

Under-Rated means that the person writes good posts but doesn't get enough credit for them. Thus they are rated less than they deserve.
Eccentric means kooky and a little wierd.
Old Dude as described in the specifications is the best poster who's been here for more than a year. As compared to best newcomer. It doesn't necessarily mean the oldest dude on the forum.
Insane poster - I think this one is best left to the nominator to decide whether that's a positive or a negative.

I'm almost positve that Eccentric means Flamboyant, showy.

Nope, NDW's right.

BICH

Cullen Heath 01-17-2006 06:08 PM

Well, it means like out of the ordinary, or not normal or all of our favorite, Odd. So when I say that it means Flamboyant, that is kind of correct. Say someone wears wierd clothes. You could say "His clothes are very accentric"
and that would mean like his clothes are not normal, which is kinda being showy.

mitsur 01-17-2006 06:51 PM

I've just realized a startling increase in people posting the definition of something.

Weird, eh?

:p

Cullen Heath 01-17-2006 07:04 PM

I'm sorry, but I don't know what half of the words you are saying mean.

Like: I, a, Hu?
What is this Hu? you speak of?
I need a definition.

Nate 01-17-2006 08:51 PM

? You're wierd Cullen. Or, possibly, eccentric.

But to be really anally-retentive about this: A flamboyant person could well be described as eccentric but an eccentric person would not neccessarily be flamboyant.

Cullen Heath 01-17-2006 10:36 PM

Yeah, I guess that I get where you're coming from.

So if someone is showy, you could call them wierd because they would be showy of something unusual, right?

Yes, I understand what you mean now.

T-nex 01-18-2006 01:38 AM

Hmm... It really doesn't feel the same when Wolfpak aint making this... Dunno, it felt so much more speciel when he did it. Ppl where also more hyped about it.
I really think we should wait for him or something...

Havoc 01-18-2006 01:55 AM

Hmhmm. Yea would be more fun I guess. But the the guy is never around only with the awards. What is up with that anyway? O.o

Hey! You already gave that vote to me! *clings onto it* MINE!

Dark Elite_H2 01-18-2006 02:06 AM

I got three awards now. Cool! :D
And somewhat I do feel under rated by some people...but it's ok.
I love you all on the forums equally!

metroixer 01-18-2006 06:25 AM

Dammit I know what eccentric means now but I don't know if it's a good or bad thing!

(Even though Havoc is taking it as a good thing.)

Havoc 01-18-2006 07:16 AM

I think I know why Nate voted me for eccentric, and I don't know if he did that with the bad-weird or funny/interesting-weird in mind. Wouldn't realy matter to me anyway. So yea, for now I'm just assuming the good kind :P.

Nate 01-18-2006 01:05 PM

Eccentricity is definately a good thing in my books. I like to have the sort of thing who can link arms with me and skip whilst singing "We're off to see the Wizard..." in public.

Which is possibly more than I should ever have revealed about myself.

Nepharski 01-18-2006 03:25 PM

Considering I technically just got back from a six-month hiatus, I don't know most of the new crowd or latest happenings to vote for most of this. I'd like to thank my (no doubted bribed and threatened) fanfic fans, however.

Oh, and some guy nominated me for Best Artist. First off, I've never submitted art here. Secondly, that's Dipstikk's award, not mine.

mitsur 01-18-2006 03:27 PM

I suppose no one thinks of me when the word 'eccentric' comes to mind...

metroixer 01-18-2006 04:04 PM

No not really. I don't find you strange. Now post a picture that is something wierder than a naked santa (Which I posted here) then I will consider you eccentric.

mitsur 01-18-2006 04:15 PM

Wow. Thats the first time someone hasn't called me strange. Including school. Before I type a long sob story that would inevitably make you all cry, long story short:

I don't have many friends, besides you guys.

metroixer 01-18-2006 04:25 PM

Already have someone like that. Look back a couple of old posts. You'll see this guy named squeeshe the metroid. A friend of mine. He's kinda in the same friend possition as you. (Maybe worse) So you see no tears from me. And how is that eccentric?

p.s. Not trying to be mean or anthing. So don't take anything I say offensivly. ;)

mitsur 01-18-2006 04:27 PM

Ok, I don't wanna make this into a story of my life, so I'm not gonna talk about it anymore. Lets just keep votin'!

I didn't take it in offense, either metro

well, i've been away too long to know all of the new comers, and basically who deserves awards, so goodluck to everyone. :D

mitsur 01-19-2006 03:14 PM

Ok, the forum awards end tommorow at exactly 4:00 PM, which is the soonest I can post on here :)

I'll start counting them as soon as I can then.

used:) 01-19-2006 04:37 PM

I don't think these votes should be taken into acount, it's not the time of year, it's not our natural creator. Lets just wait for Wolfpac to return, then we can get erections and wet vaginas on this silly thing.
