Wow... A lot of questions... And "another one?" I think this is the first opinion-based survey with questions about the forums...
1. Do you consider yourself a "seasoned veteran" to The Oddworld Forums?...
--- If you’re not a "seasoned vet" to The Oddworld Forums, would you ever desire to become one?...
--- If yes, for the love of god why!?...
I was a lurker at the old ezboard forums, but after the move, I joined... I am member #77, so I think I am. I'm a veteran because this place has a lot of great discussion, and some very cool members.
2. Have you ever thought about The Oddworld Forums and given a deep weathered sigh while saying in a dreary voice "those were the days"?...
I haven't said it in those exact words, but when MO first came out, newbies were rolling in, and I was thinking the forums were losing their atmosphere... It isn't so bad, any more though.
3. Have you ever had a dream where Oddworld Forums played some kind of role in it?...
--- If so did you dream of any specific member?...
--- If yes which member?...
I have had dreams about the forums, I think... And I bet Dan has, too, he just doesn't remember it...
4. Have you ever cried while on and or when thinking about The Oddworld Forums?...
Not really, I don't think so... :S
5. Do you think you have a life?...
Yeah, I do spend time on the forums, but I have a life outside them too.
6. Do you think you are a hypocrite?...
Er... no...
7. Do you believe you have some sort of "rival" or "mortal enemy" on The Oddworld Forums?...
--- If yes, what member?...
--- And do you think this person feels the same way towards you?...
Rival? Probably... Morgan, maybe, on MSN... he's still one of my friends here, though. Mortal enemy? I really doubt you can create a mortal enemy over the internet. But I have seemed to argue with Surf, and I used to argue with Pink a little. I really don't truly hate any one here, though.
8. Have you ever had a strange urge to get yourself banned from The Oddworld Forums just for a laugh?...
Haven't we all? Heh, I suppose I have... it's weird.... Just post a topic flaming each member I can think of, pointing out all faults.. yessssss....
9. Would you ever willingly put yourself in a positioned to be banned?...
--- If no, what if it proved an important point?...
--- If still no, what if by doing it you got your "rival" banned as well?...
No, I wouldn't... About the rival thing, people DON'T hate rivals. As I said, Morgan may be my rival, but we're still great friends over the internet. If it proved a point, maybe... but Syd and AB aren't fascist dictators, and if they were something like that, maybe... The only fascist dictator mod here is Dan...
10. If you ever met Sydney or Abe Babe would you....?
A. Punch them in the stomach and steal their lunch money..
B. Glomp them... (whatever the hell that means)..
C. Try and seduce them...
D. All of the above in no particular order...
E. You are Sydney or Abe Babe and you are seriously thinking about banning this Wolfpac fellow, along with everyone else that answered (A.)...
I'd glomp them! It sounds kinky...
11. If you suddenly became rich would you donate money to The Oddworld Forums?...
--- If yes how much would you donate?...
The Hell? Are you on crack there? Maybe if it would save the forums from vanishing, but they don't need our money..
12. Have you ever felt really close to another member although you have not met him/her in real life?...
--- If yes which member(s)?...
I have made friends, but I don't really feel close to them... I would be sad if something happened to them, but when I think of close, I think of a sort of love...
13. Have you ever fallen in love with another member?...
--- If yes which member(s)?...
Er...
14. Have you ever fantasized about another member(s)?...
--- If yes which member(s)?...
--- Are you fantasizing about them right now?...
Oh, I'm fantasizing about you right now, wolfpac!
14. Who is your Best friend on The Oddworld Forums?...
Oh, come on! You want me to choose? There are so many... But I can narrow it down to about 3... I won't say which, you know who you are...
15. Have you ever had an incredibly strong urge to kill a fellow The Oddworld Forums member(s)?...
--- If so which member(s)?...
Er... Sometimes people here can piss me off, but I would never kill someone here... I may get the urge, though...
16. If you knew you wouldn’t get banned would you act differently on The Oddworld Forums?...
--- If yes, what would you do?...
Well, I wouldn't spam the place because I know that it would make people pissed off, and I'm not an asshole like that. But I may flame a little, and be less uptight...
17. Do you think you would ever want to, or have to the courage to tell Sydney or Abe Babe to f*ck off !?....
--- If no, what if you were dared too?....
Er.... If I had a reason...
18. Did you find the above question at all offensive?...
--- If yes, do you consider yourself to have a sense of humour at all?...
Er... Maybe there was an insulting subliminal message I missed, but no.
19. Do you ever not post your true opinion for lack of courage?...
--- If yes, why?...
I usually post my true opinion, but not always... It wouldn't be for lack of courage, just because I don't feel like answering because I'm lasy or because I just don't feel like it...
20. Who do you think is the most lecherous member on The Oddworld Forums?...
--- Regarding the above question did you have to look up the word "lecherous" to know what it meant?..
I knew what it meant, but when I read this question I looked it up to see if I was right... I was correct, so I haven't the faintest idea how to answer it.
21. Is your The Oddworld Forums persona...?
A. a complete and utter lie.....
B. pretty faithful to your real life persona...
C. A slick combination between A and B...
D. You don’t know what persona means...
My opinions are all true, but I do not act exactly like I do in real life... so C.
22. If you could delete one post from your past, which would it be?.... (insert the link to the post here)....
Hmm... well, when I first joined I was frigging annoying... I got into fights, I tried to be too funny (and I wasn't) and I didn't put spaces between my sentences. I can't answer... I don't really like any of my posts from my first month and a half...
23. If you could select one post or thread as your crowning glory, which would it be?... (insert the link to the post here)
I dunno... I am the creator of TOWFT, and that is pretty glorious... I also posted the marriage topic about Tom and Dan... But that ended up not-so-good... Maybe my reply to A-sauce when he flamed every one... If I had gotten to perform Dan and Tom's marriage, that would have been good...
24. What do you consider the best post someone else has made?.... (insert the link to post here)
Oh, I don't know...
25. What do you consider the best thread someone else has made?... (insert the link to post here)
Ditto...
26. Does the way people perceive you on The Oddworld Forums matter to you?...
I guess it does... I don't know what they think of me. I know the ones who I talk to on MSN have a (mostly) good opinion of me, and some of the more liberal people of OWF... but some might not like me too much...
26. Did you notice there were two questions with the number 14 and now two with the number 26?...
The Hell?
27. If you woke up one day and found yourself to be the most hated member on The Oddworld Forums would you..?
A. Kill yourself in a brutal fashion too black mail the more popular members..
B. Pretend you were actually the most admired member on The Oddworld Forums...
C. Be a complete Bastard to everyone until you got banned...
D. All of the above in no particular order...
E. You are the most hated Oddworld Forum member...
I don't know... Something like d....
28. Do you actually think other members care about your opinions?...
--- Do you actually care about their opinions?....
I think most do, except for the ignorant people who don't care what any one else says.... I care about the others' opinions, unless they are totally illogical and annoying.
29. Did you just lie to the above question?...
Nope... But I may be lying here... Well, ok, I didn't lie either time...
30. Have you ever purposely lied to "fit in" on The Oddworld Forums?...
--- Are you lying right now?...
--- Does it bother you that you are continually lying to your self even at this very moment?...
No, I haven't lied here... I don't think so, any way... No, I'm not lying... If I was lying, I wouldn't care so nah!
31. Have you ever contemplated leaving The Oddworld Forums because of something someone said?...
--- If yes, which member and what did he/she say?..
Nope. But I do find it annoying when people act f*cking forlorn and sad, saying that they are leaving and then come back a few days later. And you know who you are if you have... And to those, bite me.
32. Have you ever posted a thread telling people that you are "leaving The Oddworld Forums for good" or that you have "just returned to The Oddworld Forums after leaving for good"?...
--- If so have you done it more than once?..
Nope. As I said, I can't stand people who do that.
33. Were you better off before you joined The Oddworld Forums?...
I think I'm better off now... I've got to learn about a lot of other people and where they live, and flexed my debating skills.
34. Do you swear a lot?...
I do sometimes, not too much.
--- Did you swear a lot before coming to The Oddworld Forums?..
Same answer, you goddamned bastard.
35. Are you constantly analysing things?...
--- Did you do this before you joined the Oddworld Forums?..
Er... I do, sometimes. If someone said that they were going to leave me forever, and make a grammar error, I would be sad, but still notice the error... Yeah, before too.
36. Have you ever questioned your religion?...
--- Did you ever question it before coming to The Oddworld Forums?...
I dunno... I suppose to both...
37. Have you ever-contemplated suicide?...
--- Did you ever contemplate it before The Oddworld Forums?..
38. Have you ever-contemplated murder?..
--- Did you ever contemplate it before The Oddworld Forums?...
Every one has, I think... But I probably wouldn't kill someone, unless they were trying to kill me or something... and the OWF hasn't changed me there...
39. Were you better off before you joined The Oddworld Forums?...
Didn't you already ask this?
40. Do you strive to be different than everyone else when on The Oddworld Forums?..
Er... I be myself. In real life, I am incredibly different from most that I know, though... maybe here, too.
41. Do you strive to be well liked on The Oddworld Forums?...
I'm getting bored...
42. Do you strive to be funny on The Oddworld Forums?...
I suppose, sometimes...
43. Do you strive to be noticed on The Oddworld Forums?...
--- If yes why?....
--- If no, does it bother you that others do?......
(if yes to above see question 6)
These questions are getting annoying...
44. Without cheating list as many The Oddworld Forums members’ names as you can think of....
Real names or fake? Oh well.

Okay, there are hundreds more... but I'm too lazy to list...
45. Taking a look at your list do you think it’s as big as it should be?...
--- Does the first person you listed have any special significances to you?...
--- Would you get mad if another member left you out of their list?...
--- Why?..
It's way too small... No, not really... A lot of the first people are people I talk to, though... I wouldn't really get mad, but how can you leave out ME???
46. do you think this survey thing is stupid and a waste of time?..
Yes, you bastard, wasting my time. I don't know why I did it. Hmph, I've wasted minutes of my life... I'll kill!
47. Do you consider your self-intelligent?....
(if yes see question 6)
*laughs at Dan's answer* Well, in RL I'm pretty intelligent, and I do find myself intelligent... Not trying to boast, or any thing... And what does the hypocrite answer have to do with this?
48. In general what kind of posts do you like?...
A. funny, sarcasm, cynic criticism not directed in your direction...
B. dead serious, never straying from topic, possibly boring to everyone but you...
C. useless posts, no meaning whatsoever, the word "glomp" appears in every single sentence...
D. all of the above....
E. none of the above....
F. other_______________________....
Er.... Good posts, maybe? I do like posts that are interesting, funny or good discussions starters... I don't really see many cynical posts here, sadly...
49. In general, do you think you spend more time in Off-Topic Discussion than the Oddworld Forums?...
--- If yes, do you find that sad considering this is the "Oddworld Forums'?...
I spend a lot more time in OT. GD is incredibly lame, as of now... OT has the funnier, often more intelligent posts. I hardly post in GD any more. I like AO and I kind of like AE, but OT is much better.
50. Do you often not post in threads that seem interesting to you just because the posts in the thread were too long to read?...
No, I'm not some moron who won't post just because I have read...
51. Do you generally read certain threads just because a certain member posted it?...
--- If yes which member(s)?..
Er... I read almost all the topics. Sometimes I won't read posts from certain members, though... I won't mention any names.
52. Do you generally ignore certain threads just because a certain member posted it?...
if yes which member(s)?..
Oops, I answered this in 51....
53. Do you currently or have you ever had a member in you’re ignore list?...
No.
54. Have you ever met another member of The Oddworld Forums in real life that you did not know previously?...
--- If yes which member(s)?...
--- Do you find the fact that you actually met them freakishly weird?...
Never...
55. If you could meet any member who would it be?...
I don't really want to meet any one... I like the facades.
56. Have you gone on the Internet in the past month and not logged on to The Oddworld Forums?...
When I'm working on an essay, or on homework, I won't. But when I come on for fun, I always come here.
57. Do you think you are addicted to The Oddworld Forums?...
I like coming here, but I'm not really addicted... you may be, though, with these damned questions.
58. After completing the survey .... how many questions did you not answer truthfully?...
I think I answered them all truthfully... *shifty eyes*
59. Were you better off before you joined The Oddworld Forums?...
--- Did you realise that this is the third time I have asked this question?...
Yeah, I realized it... now piss off.
60. That's it all over. But are you glad this thing is over?...
--- Would you want to answer more questions?...
Yes, for some reason this thing pissed me off. I have no idea why, it was just more annoying than most surveys... Sorry... I would answer more questions, probably, but it may drive me to suicide.
I can't believe I did that. Someone have a gun to put in my mouth?
Another Oddworld Forums Survey Thingy
