The Pretender (friendly Discussion-based Group Exercise)
I think the best way to ease rooted tensions between users is to play a game, and here are the rules
The user listed has to do their FRIENDLY impression of the user I tell them to do an impression of here. No sarcasm, no snark, no personal attacks, this is just a friendly group exercise. Do your impressions based on the attitudes, behaviors, history, frequently posted-about topics, and mannerisms of the user you are impersonating. Never break character. Always refer to all the other posters in this thread as the user they are impersonating
Here is an example of how it would go:
User 1 (impersonating phantomboy): my, what a topic ! !
User 2 (impersonating thelastlink): you said it phantom, this econummy is going OUT THE WINDOW, lolpolitics
So, here's the list
Streetlights has to do a FRIENDLY impression of DvChayz
DvChayz has to do a FRIENDLY impression of Phantomboy
Phantomboy has to do a FRIENDLY impression of TheLastLink
TheLastLink has to do a FRIENDLY impression of Electroyoshi
Electroyoshi has to do a FRIENDLY impression of Tta
Tta has to do a FRIENDLY impression of Miniike
Miniike has to do a FRIENDLY impression of Rabbidfan
Rabbidfan has to do a FRIENDLY impression of Streetlights
Start your discussion ! !

TheLastPhantom:

Frankly, we need more opportunities to just talk to other users. LETS TALK!

Phantom Author Note: I kind of dug through a bunch of tll's post to try and get some sort of post-voice in mind. TheLastLink a tough person to portray because depending on the post he will either be more or less serious or grammatically correct. So, I hope I've done alright with that

ElectroLink: Hey guys, I know this is off topic but I found this really cool video about the history of Nintendo's game consoles!

I just really hope these aren't all the consoles we'll ever see from Nintendo, considering how MAJORLY they screwed up with the Wii U... :/

Um... why exactly did you post all those smileys?
Author's Note: tta's posts are sort of all over the place in terms of whether they're serious or not, so I decided to do two
I need a shot again, that sweet adrenaline.

This is something I have been considering a lot lately and putting a lot of thinking towards. imo, nintendo have done a pretty great job with creating Rainbow Road. Remember that rainbow road is does not have to be like it was in the other games. With technology getting more and more powerful, why should we be limited by things in the past?TheLastLink wrote:
Back on topic: Anyone playing Mario Kart 8? I've been playing it and it's pretty good... Although they kinda messed up rainbow road
fwiw, I think nintendo also did a bad job on Rainbow Road this time around. Even with increasing technology, nintendo still clung to the old design philosophies of old.
What do you guys think? Personally I think they did a good job.
