Can i haz LBP3 beta code?

Thankfully, not up to us! lol
Hooray for you! Oh... Errr... Wait a minute...
Haha, really though, it was a fantastic surprise to see ria as a moderator today! Congrats to her!

I love nice surprises. I think she will do great!
No pressure....
She will continue to be awesome!

Is there any type of guidelines the staff has set up for finding new people to join their team? Would be cool to join the creator spotlight team.

Generally being awesome, helpful, trustworthy, (giving me zillions of dollars ) and such. As far as the Creator Spotlight team the same traits are needed as well as a proven ability for good grammar and a knack for writing interesting, entertaining uhhh... stuff. lol
I might accept cookies and hugs as a form of down payment. But personally I tend to leave those decision up to Jw

Congrats on becoming a mod, ria!


Thank you DV!

Imagine a scenario where we're trapped in the magical land of LBPC, and there's some sort of awful virus outbreak. Which subforum kingdom would you hide in?

I'd probably head to General Gaming and comfort myself with the knowledge that the world may be collapsing, But I have mah games.

What's your favorite companion in LBP3, and why?

I'm liking Swoop atm - mostly because he reminds me of something from the muppets. Still can't put my finger on it, but he is ADORABLE!
Oh, I couldn't possibly choose! It would be like asking me which of my two cats is my favourite! I could never ever choose between them!

Who's your most and least favourite member of LBPC?

Hmmm there is Doopz... and then again there is Doopz! Wait.. what was the question again? lol... Nah just kidding. I have made so many dear friends here I would hate to pick and choose.

What would you do if a random person just came up to you and slapped you across your face?

I'd hope I blocked it.

If you could only play one game (other than the little big planet series) what would it be and why?

Battlefield series. ..which is what I play on my PC quite a bit of the time.

What got you into gaming?

I had all these quarters... and worked near an arcade.

If there was a child getting bullied but it didn't want any help would you help it or respect its wish? (Totally not gonna judge you )

I would take care of the bully..

Saw him playing LBP recently so it seems weird that he hasn't been on here for so long, especially after his big return

Well. good, at least he is still alive.

Um ok question. Which of my many LBPC usernames was your favourite and do any of you actually remember them all :kz:

I still like your twitter handle AAARD - I always kind of wonder what it stands for... But no, I don;t remember them all! I'm awful in that if someone were to change their username & avatar.... I'd be pretty lost XD

Was "pookey" one of them? lol ... I guess I always think of you as AAAaaaaaaarrrd. I don't really recall any others.

Oh, I'm sorry. Can you edit that please?

I changed this to that. Better?

Ahem...Will you buy me candy?

O_O

No..

Please?

No.

No way..

Is Taffey still going to be doing mod stuff regularly, or is he taking a sabbattical from things like thread clean up and banning people?

He will stop in from time to time. Probably more around LBP3. He is around to back me up on occasion.

Also, any chance you can remove one rep point from me? I was at an odd number when CC switched to only thaks giving rep, which means I've been forever stuck at an odd number and it really annoys me. Or mildly. I'm just obsessive about it. Which is why I haven't done anything in the past 3 or 4 years. Huh.

I can!! However, I hope you don't mind I have to pull 2 points. Ya see... I hate removing odd numbers.

Hmm... I appear to have lost my lovely dark red colour since the last Meet the Staff thread...


It looks as though I was never actually added to the previous list, so I thought that I would take the liberty to add myself in this time...

Urgh! Could have chosen a more appealing colour there Steven! Edit: This was my colour from last time! I forget how we came upon choosing this particular colour... I quite like it though...

Same ground rule as before. I won't be answering any LBP questions about unreleased news/content... So no sneaking those into your staff questions!

Other than LBP, do you do any moderating/staffing/tyrannical ruling elsewhere on the world wide interwebs?

I run a website, but it's a business thing. This is the only tyrannical authority I currently hold over the world wide webz at the moment. Though I used to moderate a non-lbp forum for a short stint way, way way back, and it was HUGE - about 6000 active members and 40 sub forums. Dark times, my friend, dark times.

Yup... think huge and really scary. Skynet would be scared.

What is your proudest LBP related moment?

Toughie! I think many of my proudest moments so far has been mainly based in create mode. Figuring out a certain chip or getting a part of a level to look oh so dreamy. Possibly my latest proudest moment has been figuring out how to record a Glados-esque voice into LBP for Printz. A pretty obvious solution, but still proud of myself for making the effort

I think my first proud moment was my first Space Escape level and made the Spotlight here. I knew I was doing something right. My most proud was probably when a year after publishing one of the best pinball games in LBP ever, I saw a pink ribbon on it.

Is there any point during moderating this forum, that you did something (eg ban someone, close a thread etc), that made you feel like a complete baws?

In the two days I've been a mod.... erm.... no

Not really... it's actually a bit painful to tell someone you really like, they have done something wrong.

Do you guys have a super secret staff forum where you discuss and poke fun at the regular plebeian members?

We have a coffee shop. It's like Friends, but without all the love triangles.

I like the couch.. it is quite comfy and they finally serve decent iced tea. Just never been a coffee drinker.

Why have you spelt rialrees's name wrong?

*sob*

Yikes!! Fixed!

Is there any concern among the staff that there is no backup Steven? I see the other areas have a backup or multiple people. What if Steven goes down with an injury? Why is the Steven depth chart not stocked? I just hope it doesn't end up costing us the season.2014-06-24 15:39:00

I volunteer for position of backup Steven. I'll even have my name legally changed.

They were nice about it but said "we are looking for someone with at least five years experience being Steven".2014-06-24 17:07:00

Gah, how am I supposed to get 5 years experience being Steven if no one will accept me as Steven in the first place?

Give me all the major smack/trash talk on the other LBP fansites that you can think of. Starting now.

Huh? I have nothing sorry..:star:

Favorite levels in LBP, whether they're basically perfect or impacted you in profound ways.

Anything by Mrsupercomputer.. he was a huge inspiration when I arrived here. Also CuzFeeshe.. From his levels, I learned to always make things uber fun and amazing.. and never do what anyone else was doing.

Stephanie Ravens confirmed for LBP3 pls?

Who? Please refrain from naming names or digging up old issues. Not needed.

Yikes!! Fixed!

If I'm going to be picky (which I am), technically it's still not correct. First letter should be lower case.

..and my new pick for most disliked member of LBPC goes to.... lol (fixed!)

So I was going through my list of old subscribed threads and came across something interesting.

When will captions be judged?

lol... well, you know, TheCountessZ and I were actually just talking about another round and possibly resurecting that bit of forum fun. I dislike results without another round and just never could come to grips with it being over by just publishing results. ...though I can almost hear Bio screaming out there in the distance about now.

Though we need for everyone to promise to be really funny this time.

Are you saying we weren't funny before? My magic school bus reference was gold!

Ummm... Look a squirrel!

Everyone else agrees, right? see, totally more questions

Taffey (backup)
jwwPhotos



So if Taffey is backup does that mean if there's a crisis you have to call in Taffey and be like "Taffey! We're under attack! We need BACKUP!" Then Taffey, armed to the teeth, muscles rippling and in a tank top wearing a chain of bullets as an accessory, blows the door up and barges into the room - he takes down all the baddies and saves the day by lobbing grenades at em, takes em down with his fists, then the grenades blow up, then he does a double front-flip and destroys a tank with a single kick, then catches a football and scores a touchdown and saves the American Superbowl as the national anthem plays, and American flags wave behind him, and fireworks go off? That kind of back-up?

I'm procrastinating on things I need to get done, sorry.

lol... I wish.

No, my dear friend Taffey collects any donations we get and pays for the site. Mostly from his own pocket.

I took a turn and paid this quarter as well as bought a new license for vBulletin. That may sound kinda silly, but since CC never handed us all the keys, I wanted to have all the install files to be able to sort out what all was hacked and able to fix them. Plus get some tech advise if I needed any, and down the road upgrade to version 5.
