Then why are you posting here, especially if the forum is really just trash?
ok, honest apology for calling this place trash. please accept.
that was me overreacting to a really shitty reception of a new member who said absolutely nothing to deserve that.
i do stand by the opinion that that was not a warm welcome.
besides the hostility, this place is a treasure trove of great info, and has some pretty good discussion too.
i get a bit upset by the hostility at times only because i actually sort of care about this place...
i hope that clarifies. again, sorry.

(now please feel free to prove my point by making all-caps fun of me for caring about some internet forum. -_-;; )

CRITICAL HIT! (lol get it?)
I agree with what DJRP said. The people here who seem annoying are actually very cool once you get over their craziness.

Except shoe-sama. He will always remain annoying.

In all seriousness, it's also the insane nutsacks here who contribute some of the best information on these games here.

All that happened here is Pixel_Outlaw made a little joke, that's not a horrible welcome by any stretch. Also, whenever you think a regular is being hostile on this forum, take a second look, cause it's almost always just sarcasm or subtle humor. :)

I'm going to name the elephant in the room because I'm like that.

Can we please get over the whole Lili-Xiang thing? She (?) still posts here so I guess she got over it. Do we need to lock another thread over it? Some posters here can't stand to say they're sorry, I guess that's just life.

Wow.

If my posts actually had that much impact on the real world, think of the chaos that I would have caused.

It's like Helen of Troy, except with Vic Vipers instead of traditional ships.

Unfortunately, I'm not a bot. Although for all your fapping purposes, since females apparently don't exist you can picture me as one of these.

i don't wanna drag this on, but take a second look on page 5, that post was not the only one. i can take a joke and i don't mistake regulars taking stabs at each other for deep-rooted hatred (and yeah this place wouldn't be the same without the sarcasm ^_^ ), but towards new members who may well be unfamiliar with the forum culture here i'd say some more subtlety is warranted (maybe especially if said member is already in a socially somewhat awkward position).

regulars stabbing regulars --> pretty fireworks
regulars stabbing newcomers --> bloody mess

pretty basic.


someone please pass the guys calling me a fag that re:glitch's gender memo, thanks.

Would you like that charcoled as well? :lol: (nanchatte! Ignore me)

Anyway, For helping you in the boss fight (what I did being stupid)
Set your Shield-HP to 10, DO NOT TAKE A HIT BEFORE FIGHTING THAT ASSFACE NO MATTER WHAT!!,
have some Napalm Bombs equipped with whatever else is your favorite
weapons (HOWEVER, I recommend you have V-Vulcan and Napalm Bombs
if you were me, but I'm sure you'd do better than me anyday, LOL!), side
with that big fat ass and bomb that wild sword-slinging son of a bitch like hell,
if you have to get suicidal if angry enough (and have FULL HP), stand on top
of him (may take 3 or 4 HP down) and hold your X button (my default for
DUAL fire of weapons) and never let it go! He should die eventually in
approx. 4 or 6 seconds...

if not, well... um... try to KEEP MOVING when you see him lift the blade
and pay attention to the angle he is aiming. when you have calculated his
vector alignment (the way he will swing it, that is) be sure to get the hell
out of teh way. I took him down BOTH ways, and both were painful.

(forgive me though, it's been a LONG time since I've fought him, but 'tis
the best I can remember...)

Shows how stupid I am.

-did the same thing for the Final Boss-Ver.2 as well when he pissed me off
enough to lose my mind, LOL!

if possable, take somebody else's hints instead of mine. I was a bit
passive to conserve HP. If mine doesn't work, just shoot me in the
head and call me Subeta. :lol:

To be honest, the 1st time I fought him, I was swearing my sorry ass off
like crazy, so you're certanly not alone on the boat of hatred for that bastard!
I still have a strong loathe for that poor excuse of a swordsman/samurai
of UTOO myself! :evil:

Damn I tried using the Napalm and the green bullets (forgot the name), and shoot him no matter what whitout caring for HP but he just wouldn't die and he kept killing me with by swinging his swords lol add to this that I tried like 10-15 times and couldn't even kill him once...

I gave up, I might try today again when I have time (too bad you can't save your progress though, cause I will have to start all over). Thanks for the tip, I'll try using that napalm bomb technic by equiping both napalm bombs on L and R and blasting him with it non-stop, hope it works.

Quick question, why would a female person use 'girl' or perhaps 'grrl' in their username? I have seen this occasionally, while I don't recall ever seeing 'woman' nor boy/guy/man in a username anywhere on teh intarwebs.

Harrharr.

It is a genre of music and a lifestyle. However, I use this username specifically for video game-oriented forums, in an act of defiance to clearly delineate that I am, indeed, female. It's annoying to be mistaken for male 95% of the time, especially on forums that don't use the male/female tags under the avatar of your post.

It solves the problem without me constantly having to correct people.

And if there are RiotGrrl cabinets, I'd love to see them! :P

Declaring your gender is an act of defiance? :roll:

half the goddamned internet wrote:there are no girls on the internet!
The only people who complain about shit like that are fat fucking nerds on internet message boards devoted to some stupid super-niche subject that next to nobody really gives a rat's ass about. What's next, are you going to start joining model railroad forums and start posting "HEY LOOK AT ME I'M A FUCKING GIRL AND I'M GODDAMNED DEFIANT BECAUSE I JOINED A FORUM THAT'S 99% DUDES SO GIVE ME A COOKIE, MY TOKEN GIRL THREAD, AND LOTS O' ATTENTION LOL WHAT'S HO SCALE?" Of course no one's going to do that, because it's fucking stupid. So why bother here?

I mean, congratulations on liking shooters and joining the community and all, just remember that we're not going to sound the klaxon and run around like maniacs screaming ImageOMG INTERNET GURLImage. Since 99.999% of us are not Fighter17, we probably don't give a shit about your gender, race, or religous beliefs. Your act of defiance bores me.
