(To Melfice: Lo digo en espa?ol por la frase hecha: Lo que pas? luego es que sega me dej? con el culo al aire, as? que tuve la decencia de pirarme despu?s de haber recomendado la Dreamcast hasta el d?a antes de que los hijoputas de SAGE la sagearan.)
Sorry, if i'm being too personal (then ignore me here) but I can1t help my curiousity; I must ask what the hell that means? XD

Sure, excuse me for using some Spanish. I did because there was a perfect idiomatic expression for the situation I wanted to use. The closest translation would be:
"I'm going to say this in Spanish because of the idiom: What happened then is that sega betrayed me in the middle of it, so I had the decency of fucking off after having recommended the Dreamcast until the day before the SAGE motherfuckers saged it."

You know this is the only board I post at. I browse the HBO boards, but that is just looking for stuff to do when I am bored.

Yeah... I've learned alot here, and changed alot thanks to here.
Originally with my silly lives are useless stuff, and Christianity, then to my big ego and omg religion needs to die kthxbai l337 is teh secks stage, and now I've just mellowed out, and am more pagan, in the sense of nature worship, than anything else.
XD, I also remember being adverse to hentai, thinking it wrong and such, when caijem posted his first pics XD. And then I was a total perv for awhile, and now my teen hormones have died out for the most part, it seems, as I rarely get horny nowadays. Hell, I went nearly 4 months recently (Too much info'd! [img]tongue.gif[/img] )
Or my: omg god hates gays, to omg gays are unnatural, to liek, whoa! Bishies are pretty! Oh, and gays are as cool as anyone else!
And I've gone from being christian, to agreeing with pretty much everything Miguel said, to (Finally) having my own strong opinions on most things.
And I've gone from secks is for marriage, to pussies are cock sleaves, to sex is for true love only romantic *Chaste 'til dating someone for two or so years at least*
Oh, and I've gone from being: lolz, i dunno what i wunna do, to omg programming! or how about CPU repairs! or... *Random technology related career*, to mm... lit major. Journalism sounds fun, and a good realistic career for me that I'd enjoy! Yummy.
Yeah... I've just basically overgeneralized myself into three stages for everything, but it is all true. I think my only constants throughout all of my teen years have been my dislike of trends, needless drama, and my only ambition being true love.
I only post here seriously, and occasionally at the board that is most of my real life friend's social board, and I troll on GFAQs alot. I rarely post on any other boards, and that's only when I'm seeking something.
Yep, the GB's been a major part of my life these past... 5 years? All of my frshman year, I'd come home, and whore my F5 key on the main page XD. And of course I've made some really great friendss, some who've beena round nearly the entire run, like N, OCB, Cata, Sizer-chan, or those who I read for months before ever even posting at that GFAQs board, like Miguel, phaq, Bj, elf, and Shini, the energetic new guys, like Dreamer, HK, Raij, Buffalo, CBA, and many others who haven't posted in a while, but come back occasionally, and of course Cav, who was my best friend, even over IRL people, for my first year and a half of high school. Hell, Miguel was my role model for sophomore and most of junior year [img]tongue.gif[/img]

It is the Typeteam boards, here: http://foros.typeteam.net/ though right now they're disconnected, because the servers are being moved. And there was a trouble with some users... i don't like it too much right now.
Post in spanish:
Es http://foros.typeteam.net/ pero ahora est?n desconectados por traslado del servidor, cuando esten abiertos, te aviso. Hubo problemas con usuarios, y la cerraron tambien por eso. No la recomiendo mucho, no es un lugar agradable para los nuevos, y eso es un fastidio.

The Granaboard is 4 years old. During these years I changed in some ways too, although not nearly as much as Xellos did (most of my personality was forged before I joined the boards and started the Granaboard).
I'll define two and three stages. When I mention two stages, I mean the pre-Hostboard eras and the rest soon after joining Hostboard (unless stated otherwise). When I mention three stages, I mean the pre-Hostboard eras, more or less the first year in Hostboard, and the rest.
● I wanted a girlfriend badly. Stuff I haven't talked about in the board happened for about a year. Now I don't want a Naru-girl but a serious girlfriend, and I'm not actively looking because most girls my age are Naru-girls.
● I wasn't sure about what would life's ultimate purpose be. I didn't see it clearly. I thought it was too complex; you had many purposes to fulfill; and if anything, it would be doing the most good you can. Now I saw things clearly: the ultimate, true, proper purpose of life is to have fun! It's wonderfully simple. What could be better than that? Fun wouldn't be so fun if it weren't the ultimate purpose of life.
● My principles were based around the objective of being good; I thought that's what I was supposed to be. Now I'm all about being mine - doing what I have to.
● I didn't have a global vision and theory for the Universe. Now I have theories and ideas for most things. I find this very valuable.
● Paradoxically, my old thoughts and schemas were much more complex than my new ones, and I liked complexity. Through complexity, I learnt the incredible value of simplicity and minimalism. Now the KISS principle is one of my bases.
● In the Light vs. Darkness debate (when they don't refer to good and evil, but the ways of light and the ways of darkness), I was strongly on Light's side. Now I'm in both (not neither, but both). Ying-Yang. I do what needs to be done with the appropiate ways. The only Light attribute I keep unconditionally is order.
● I tried to have a real life. I had a real life. I have a real life but I keep it to a minimum; I'm more interested geeky matters.
● I was shy. Then not shy. Then not shy but not social.
● I was on the "care for everything" side. Now I'm mostly don't care.
● I was a completely unspiritual atheist who bashed religion when the subject arose. Now I'm not only that, but I actively hate and bash religion.
● I used to say all religions suck. Since recently, I don't consider some Eastern religions (like Buddhism or Shintoism) "strong religions", but more of a fuzzy and flamboyant philosophical schools, so I don't direct my attacks towards them. It's the monotheist, dogmatic, lamb-oriented, fuck-you-up religions I'm bothered with.
● I used to think the future was not written because it was nicer on first looks. Now I think the universe seems to be deterministic, therefore the future is already determined (but there's no fair fate or any crap).
● I wasn't interested on anime, manga, JPop, CPop, etc. Now I am.
● I had all male avatars (and didn't like to use a female picture for me, even though I liked females and I liked other males' females), until recently. Now I'm all girls in avs.
● I was semi-fanboy for sega. Now I'm platform and company agnostic and a whore.
● I thought sega rocked. Now I think sage sucks.
● I used to have much less fuck up tolerance. Now I browse 4chan /b and like at least half of it.
● I was a fascist, now a right-wing democrat because there's nothing better.
● I was not that interested in politics, now I am.
● I didn't like History, now I do.
However, there are many things that define me that I kept intact or just improved:
■ I like girls and my ultimate goal is true love.
■ But I like sex too, and I openly say so. I'm up for most things that have to do with sex.
■ My geeky interest on anything technology-related and my ability with computers.
■ My strong sense of right, law, and honor.
■ My strong love for animals and nature.
■ Anti-puritanism and anti-religion.
■ Values, i.e. traditional values. Patriotism. Pro-marriage. Anti-sexism. Anti-islamism. Overall conservativism outside puritanism and religion (i.e. true, not religion-oriented conservativism).
■ Maximum sincerity. Maximum seriousness when required.
■ Always being as helpful as I can. And taking my job seriously.
■ Always writing and formatting my posts decently, and not spamming. Loving to discuss on everything. Liking to read and write.
■ My political incorrectness and intolerance for the shitty and the stupid.
■ I'm a little (or a lot? You decide) self-centered. Pride as opposed to modesty. Self-confidence.
■ Economy-aware and capitalism as the perfect system.
■ I hate trends.
■ I love RPGs.
■ I strongly like good music and strongly dislike bad music.
■ I have strong opinions on almost everything. But that doesn't mean I can't change something if I discover or am presented something better.

That gives me the idea to follow suit.
I was a depressed goth kid, now I'm a happy unclassifiable person.
I was an atheist then, still am.
I liked crappy music then, now I prefer better music.
I didn't play games as much.
I didn't read as much.
My views were not as expanded as they are now.
I have a better understanding of the world around me.
I still don't trust most people at my school.
-----
I'm sure there is more, however.

I liked hungarian music, now I don't
I didn't like Animes, now I do
I didn't like japanese culture/people/music, now I really do =P
I wanted to post to every post, now I don't
I didn't know lotsa american/sveden,etc cool bands, now I know
Now sometimes I prefer to be alone though I hated to be alone

Overall, the Granaboard has primarily had an influence on my opions and how I express them.
But it has also increased my awareness of a more diverse range of different animes and mangas (I'm currently reading downloadable manags of "Chobits" as recommended by Wise), and also wish to borrow the 3rd volume of Love Hina in response to recommendations from both Wise and Cat...and others..hehe.
Again, read my question in the "Bizarre Questions" thread, but wouldn't it be awesome if Granaboard really did persist for so long that we all got families, jobs and things, and still adhered to posting on Granaboard?
If this did indeed happen, then it can be safely affirmed that Granaboard had been an important aspect of our lives, and that we were all a really close community of friends, considering that we had basically been together discussing various issues for so long.
