Your Embarrising Past, What WERE you like?

Yep. Maybe when you're older I'll tell you about it.

Well a few years back one kid in my class made it very hard for me to have a social life....

But That was the past.

I would comment that vague references to our shady pasts is not meant to be the meat of this topic, but then I'd be some sort of hypocrite.

... Wait a minute...

I shall clarify.

Well life was great when he left the school, in fact you could say I was quite cool, but in fourth grade the jackass returned, ruining all that I'd earned.

But then one day enough was enogh and I was tired of this asshole's bluffs, so I yelled at him loud, angry and sad, now when he tries to make fun of me I am not mad.

But still He is annoying, and makes it hard for me to make friends, but it has gotten a lot better recently.

I was an Nsider. That wasn't lasting very long, maybe two weeks until I found MFGG. I know my grammar sucked terribly, though I always stayed out of fights and arguments. I'm pretty much still like that, except with Firefox my grammar went up 120%.

Aaaand cause i might just get the b&hammer soon,

I was here bout two years ago under the moniker zasshou. Got banned because i was a stubborn ass about someone else getting banned and made a dupe to post one objectionable topic.

ITT several of the 13 year olds at MFGG cry about their bullying problems.

Also Keyser continues to be a dick.

i would have got on the internet when i was eight or nine, which is shockingly close to ten years ago now. started off in the sonic fan gaming community making ridiculous sprite comics filled with in-jokes no one but me and my mates would get. i had a bunch of internet friends. i was obsessed with linkin park.

i am not really embarassed by my nerdy past at all, i think everyone has to evolve in some way. it was my akward 13 year old bicurious emo stage i often forget to mention ever happening at all, though.

wait a second


what was your name on the forums

Speedy work there with Vihuru there Shyguy.

While on the topic of permabans, did you know that the MFGG mods (not sure who it was) accidentally permabanned me for 6 months last year?

It was supposed to be a 4 day ban... That was fun!

Oh, and it was Grant who helped me get back, we had this whole pm thing on the mainsite (so I wouldn't have to create another account to protest my ban and get superpermabanned or something)

So despite your political views, I love ya Grant! time for seks!

I was annoying, even on these boards. I'm sure lots of you know what I'm talking about. Hell, maybe I still am annoying!

That's really all there is though. Sometimes I devote too much time into websites and get carried away. See: ZFGN.

I've had a terrible Internet past, to be honest.

I think this is one of only like three forums that I haven't been banned from at least temporarily (and one of those three I've never even posted on). And I've been perma'd from two forums.

The first forum I joined was on TMK (now at themushroomkingdom.net). I was an interesting sort of n00b there (this was when I was already eighteen). I had good spelling and grammar, but I didn't know what "lol" meant, didn't understand what signatures were for (and thus didn't have one for a very long time), thought l33t was funny and eventually got a signature written in it (ugh), and was probably rather bad at detecting sarcasm. As time went on I ended up getting people mad at me by being unnecessarily tactless on controversial subjects. At one time, after a heated argument about opinions with a mod, I was actually permabanned for bumping two topics that were years old, because the administration thought I was doing it as a gesture of defiance toward them, and thought more trouble would be coming. However, it was actually just because I didn't even know bumping old topics was bad then, and the timing happened to be unfortunate. When I explained this, I was unbanned. (So don't think this is an outside dispute or something.) Shortly after I joined MFGG I left the TMK forums due to lack of interest in the current community there.

At KRR (Kirby's Rainbow Resort) things went a lot worse where I was concerned. When I joined there I planned on trying my best to be a cool, well-liked type of member (though actually when I joined I was still a n00b who found l33t amusing and stuff), but things got messed up majorly when I stated a certain controversial opinion in a topic there, not realizing how angry the response would be, and ended up getting a ton of people jumping at me in a fury. After that point things were never the same again; since my reputation was already beyond repair after what went on that day, I basically ended up becoming the ultimate outspoken-and-tactless-about-political-and-moral-matters member. If you think I act ultra-conservative here, I acted like twice as much so back there (though my views themselves were basically the same), and as a result innumerable liberals on that board could not stand me.* Conflicts of that kind weren't the only problem, though; I was a dick in general there at times, even to people who would otherwise have been my friends, partly due to being bitter about being ostracized. Eventually, after finding out a certain thing related to myself on there (which I won't get into because outside dispute), I requested a perma, and I got it.

*Note that I'm not saying "those liberals on there sucked" or anything; that would be outside dispute material and stuff. Basically this entire story was meant to be told in a "this is what happened" way, not a "slanted" way that implies that I was persecuted. I'll keep my own opinions about it to myself.

There were other problems I caused on other forums as well, but I won't name two other forums because one of them, mainly populated by real-life friends of mine, I probably shouldn't advertise, and the other I'd rather not have anyone here know about for certain reasons. But let's just say that on my friend's forum (where, incidentally, I was a staff member of very high rank), I once overreacted to something and caused a big angry scene that got me banned for a month, and after returning from the ban caused a ton of trouble and nearly destroyed several real-life friendships. Fortunately I patched things up later and my friends were much more forgiving than I deserved. As for the mysterious other forum, let's just say that among a community of somewhat like-minded people, I was one of the most extreme, and was more than unnecessarily abrasive in my attitude. I made lots of enemies, and eventually, as you may guess, requested a perma. Later I came back again to flame someone majorly over a post that made me angry, and was re-banned.

Last but not least.... basically my entire history on this board, except for my good start in late '06. Enough said.

>_>

Nice history Grant, you should write a book.

(also look at my touching, heartfelt mention of you in my history above your wall of text)

Ah, I see.

Thanks.

I shoved a kids head into a bench in 2nd grade because he was shoving dirt covered candy in my face after he got be benched.
I thought I was pushing away his hand, but nope.

Yeah, first and only time I have ever really spoken with one of my principals.

I smuggled vegetables through the klondike

i went through many, many names in my day. started off as Benic 2000, and then at one point i changed to The Original Zell, and then I was ZellXero and then ZellKemuri. eventually i started using ben as my name, (rather than 'zell', which i created for myself/stole from final fantasy) and was ben-sevenfold for a bit which evolved into benjamin7x because like. benjamin times seven, seven fold. but i put the x in the wrong place, or something. nowadays i am almost immediately recognized as just 'ben mitchell'.

I found "sprites" on google, and I was going to make a sprite comic. I was 10, and had no talent. I found a place called spriters resource, and I fell in love with it, it had everything I needed. I finally joined pt after being inspired by starpowers m&l wario (So starpowers single sprite sheet inspired me).

Well big shock, I sucked. I started with sonic and m&l edits/recolors. My first custom was a kirby, very small, but I was proud of it. But pt's asshole members drove me out constantly, and I was a dumb kid, so I had alot of alts (Pink Plumer, Pink Plumber, Blue Scarf, Mario v.192, Frostbite, Silver Sonic, Japanese Tree Frog). I left constantly, and that probably was a big kick in the balls to my spriting career.

I found mfgg, and eventually joined. I started constantly going here when I worked on my M&l works (submitted by OCean blue). I was not here long though, because of a dupe. I was banned for 4 days, but I had no idea what cookies were, so I thought I was perma banned.

When I finally left pt, for good I knew I was gonna come back here. I pm'd some people, but got no real results. I'm not gonna lie, I cleared my cookies because I was looking up some adult content. Then I came back to MFGG, still as Frostbite. I'm keeping this name though, because its when I did all my sucessful stuff.

Basically, everything past 5 seconds ago, I look back on as embarassing. I consider every tiny insignificant event, detail, and aspect of my life as embarassing. I'm embarassed about being on MFGG, I'm embarassed about doing stupid cruddy dances at these birthday parties years ago, I'm embarassed of hanging around with them girls I was friends with 5 years ago, Drama, Foods, Things I do alone, How I act on the Internet, EVERYTHING! My life's just one big embarassment to me. Basically, I just look down on everything, and that's probably why I tend to act so pessimistic today. Oh well! That's life for you.
