Yeah, I'm gonna do these sometimes

Hey, I had to make us active somehow

Your only hint is that this starts in ASCII numbering

Maybe you should have put some cheesy text in there ;)

Heres what I got (took more than ascii conversion I found, and this text forces beeps out the computer):
I just real^?→←??↕H↑?V?B♠?W7B???????????eesy text a↓]??[??Hv?V?Bv??FW??????????
Now, heres the code for the decoder I made.

The process:
Convert from decimal to equivalent letters.
Convert from hex to binary.
Convert from binary to ASCII encoded text
Voila!

Lol you overcomplicated yourself. The first part was right, you just need to convrt the rest of those characters

I guess I don't really have to wonder... :P

You were close. I'm not sure if you got a step wrong or were using the wrong encoding but it's:

Convert decimal to ascii (which gives you hex codes)
Convert those hex codes to base 10, and then ascii (which gives you binary)
Convert those binary codes to base 10, and then ascii

Which gives you:

I just realized how I could just put in some cheesy text and everyone would wonder what it is

Yeah, I'm much more generalized in my descriptions of things. I also copied snippets of code from stack overflow so I wouldnt have to figure out the conversion code myself. Found there was some nasty bugs in the conversion code for some of the steps (which I lazily covered with try catches).

I suppose I was a bit misleading there. The result was binary text that I then had to convert into actual binary.

Congratulations , you figured it out . Do you want a cookie? Pity
That wasn't very hard, only took about 3 minutes
Mostly because I was stupid enough to not have it translate to text but instead into binary... again.

Actually it was supposed to say, "Too bad for you," at the end. Stupid Google Translate.
