Favorite?

Well, right now that's gotta Signa8. I did nothing but pester him with questions about PC building and part selection up til and after Xmas. The guy helped me every step of the way, and thanks to him I've built my own gaming PC. Signa, you're pretty gr8, m8. Everyone else is ok, I guess. Vigamortis is pretty neato, I'll echo with the others in bringing up everyone's favorite fat fish. Really though, if I don't see you being snarky, condescending, or sarcastic in nearly every post you make, you're pretty good far as I'm concerned.

Least Favorite? Oh, that's easy. There is one person in particular, one person who shits up any and all social issues threads. And... I could go on, but I don't need the drama.

Eh why not. Favorite is kinda hard, Queen Michael and TakerFoxx I like.
Dislike however is easy, the aforementioned Sung-Hwan. Reading through his posts are rather unpleasant, and that is all I'll say on the matter.

I have no real like. I guess "Kira Must Die" since I've been able to talk to him a lot and I think I get along with him.

Two choices for most hated: One is Sung Hwan who is an annoying elitist that says some of the most questionable things ever.

The other is myself since I haven't exactly been the most tactful or nuanced with people when it comes to anime, the trends, or it's seeming rise/fall in quality. In fact the reason I hate Sung Hwan is because he basically is who I was back in high school and some of that old baggage is still around in my posts.

Edit: I think I did have a favorite. "Danger: Must Silence". He had an interesting perspective on Japanese culture and was intelligent in his conversations on politics .

Sadly, he's been banned since November for reasons unclear to me since he normally hangs around the Religion and Politics servers and that's a mindfield.

Real? I know I try too hard to be funny but real?
.....can't tell if serious or not.


Just in case, his link isn't directed at you. Whoever clicks on it, is automatically taken to their own profile. So when I click on it, I see Lionsfan. He was making a (rather old) forum

My favorite ones are Vault101, CaramelFrappe, Izanagi009, Daystar Clarion... Basically "the good old gang."

My least favorite? Well, I don't want to incur mod wrath by naming names, so let's just say... he was mentioned very early in this thread, and he and I have had a tiff in the past. About anime and manga. Also, he might or might not have been mentioned several times as "least favorite member" in this very thread. Hint hint.

Hope you get who I mean.

If they're part of the EUNOPF, then chances are I like them. But I guess I could always do some ego rubbing. VanQ, Drummodino, Caramel Frappe, Tizzy The Tormentor, Dirtycopjamesfuns, Neuromancer, Sigmund, and a few others I'm too lazy to type.

There are a few members I really don't care for, but since I'm not that guy, I'll just post a rivalry. Izanagi009. Conflicting ideals on anime and it's culture has led to us clashing quite a bit. He's not my least favorite by a long shot, just someone who I frequently disagree with.

Stahp! My penis can only be so erect!

OT As much as I think this place has devolved into a shitpile lately, there's still a few users I enjoy talking to. Mostly those in the RPs I write for, Fapperoo, Dogematic, Ninja, etc.

As for my favourite Escapist, there are so many people I adore here, I couldn't pick one. I suppose, for people who matter in my real life, I'd have to say Gaystar. He deserves a medal for putting up with me.

My favourite Escapist has already been banned. The wizard Mythrandia [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/profiles/view/Mythrandia] was just so far ahead of everybody that nobody could understand their genius.

And, I for one, like Sung-Hwan. They are one of the most interesting people to come to the site for a while, and help to break up the mundanity of mild mannered people agreeing with eachother.

As for least favourite, I have to agree with Zykon.

I just cannot stand that user. The day they came to the site is probably the lowest point in Escapist history.

EDIT: Although, I'm tempted to say Lionsfan for ruining the joke!

Hmm, I like everybody, more or less. Casual Shinji shares my love of Berserk, and caramelFrappe and Queen Michael are pretty swell. I don't know, I'd just go through the user list, but it would take too long. Instead, I just want you to know: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uocHKmdCOvc

As for dislike? Not many, honestly. There are one or two that I won't mention. Except one guy I can't stand.

Pretty much what Zykon said, that guys a git. He's really pretentious. I can also confirm that he's basically hitler.

Awh, you really do care. Not sure what raised the ire. If it was recent 90% sure it was me coming really hard on Gamergate. If it wasn't, could it be a disagreement about the Mass Effect 3 ending. OMG, that would just like old times.

I'm a pretentious Hitler! :D You guys say the most awesome things. Wow, I could only be more honored if you guys gave me statue of a fedora adorned leader of the Third Reich.

Seriously though, I'm a pretty nice guy when you get to know me. XOXO

That was an entertaining few minutes of my life. Oh well, in all seriousness, I gave this some thought and I realized that I've most enjoyed users that I don't necessarily agree with, but I still manage to find common ground. Those moments are few and far between because either I am being an ass about it, or the other person is. However, sometimes, by some miracle, something of insight is written down and my horizons are broadened. Next time, if that happens to me again, I'll be sure to friend them.

I tried to private message you, but for some reason the Escapist wouldn't let me.

Just for the record, the link always takes you to your own profile. So, when I clicked on it, I saw myself. Everyone commenting on that link was having a good laugh at themselves. I promise, no one thinks your fedora Hitler.

Unless you into that sorta thing D :

Lookit all'a you, playin' favourites. Ain't gonna catch me bein' anythin' but neutral around these here parts.

Ah, screw it, who am I kidding? Radoh [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/profiles/view/Radoh] is probably my favouritest dude on the Escaping internets right now. Despite (or perhaps because of) his janitorial [http://vignette2.wikia.nocookie.net/scrubs/images/0/00/S8-HQ-Janitor.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20141104122709] sense of humour, he's a really fun guy to chat with, smart as a whip and always has something up his sleeve to make you laugh. He also rocks a mean Zer0 in Borderlands 2.

Oh, then of course there's Epidemiix [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/profiles/view/Epidemiix], who's friendship around these parts, despite his hectic schedule over the past year, has not been forgotten. Totally cool fella, even if I kept having to tell him to stop saying sorry all the time. I kid, dude. :p

Then there's EeveeElectro [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/profiles/view/EeveeElectro], who is northern as fuck, but at least she doesn't deep-fry mars bars. At least, to my knowledge. I've still yet to decide whether she's ruled over by her cats, or is plotting to take over the world with them. I'll get back to you all if I find out. She's also bloody good fun to talk to.

Honourable mentions go out to Caramel Frappe [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/profiles/view/Caramel%20Frappe] who has always been a total bro in the few interactions I've had with him, and to Fappy [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/profiles/view/Fappy], Daystar Clarion [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/profiles/view/Daystar%20Clarion], Colour Scientist [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/profiles/view/Colour%20Scientist] and Hazy992 [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/profiles/view/Hazy992], who, while I am not acquainted with them personally, always leave something smart, witty and/or funny whenever they post. Don't stop being awesome, guys.

I suspected by the second link, but by then I was getting that awards ceremony rush, "You hate me, you really hate me! XD",
but alas, it was not so. Honestly, I'm glad someone did that, because the forum could have gone in a very negative direction and this encouraged more positive posting, which I have enjoyed reading.

Seconded.

[user]TopazFusion[/user] - Corruption doesn't click with this moderator. He's fair, calm headed, and really tries to not go ban happy on people. I appreciate his posts as well, along with him protecting the forums from actual trouble makers.
Also seconded. Can't believe I forgot Topaz, everyone's favourite Kiwi. :p

Caramel Frappe said:
[user]sky14kemea[/user] - Now that I think about it... aren't all our mods at this point fair and great? Though I can see sky reaching out to people most certainly, due to her engaging on forums games + events very often. She never places her role above people and even acts like she's nothing special (fyi, she's a beautiful soul around here so she is lol). Thank you for making this place home-y for us normal users sky :)
Psst! Erm, sky's not a mod anymore, dude. Not that she shouldn't be thanked anyway, of course. Mods gotta put up with our crap on a day to day basis, and I know from experience that takes its toll. Kudos to sky for doing so for so long.

Caramel Frappe said:
[user]Idsertian[/user] - A fan of MLP, but doesn't bring people down regardless of what they have to say about the show. I appreciate his comments here and how he's a good example of what a fan should be all about. Thank you for doing so Idsertian.

I think a little bit of squee just came out. :D
