It&#8217;s for incoming students to express concerns about moving in, or simply to introduce themselves. Introducing oneself on <a href=\"http:\/\/ucsc.livejournal.com\/\" class=\"lj-user\">ucsc<\/a> is looked down upon simply because of the community&#8217;s size &#8211; hundreds of people do not care who you are and they do not want to hear it.<br \/>\nSo so far, the community&#8217;s doing really well. No one&#8217;s really breaking the rules, and if they do, I&#8217;ll be there to moderate (unlike in <a href=\"http:\/\/ucsc.livejournal.com\/\" class=\"lj-user\">ucsc<\/a>, where the mod seems to have died).<br \/>\nNext order of business&#8230; umm, okay. This might shock and disappoint some of you, and it&#8217;ll make me seem like a total hypocrite &#8211; especially because these were the same kinds of people I tried saving UCSC&#8217;s communities from, but&#8230;<br \/>\nI CREATED A <a HREF=\"http:\/\/forums.somethingawful.com\">SOMETHING AWFUL FORUMS<\/a> ACCOUNT. :[<br \/>\nWhy? Because I&#8217;m so freaking bored. And it was inevitable. I can&#8217;t beat &#8217;em, I might as well join &#8217;em and uh, make fun of them from the inside. And of course, it&#8217;s not as bad as I kept saying it was. All the retards that I <b><i>hate<\/i><\/b> are in FYAD, the forum for people to &#8220;chillax&#8221; and be &#8220;funny.&#8221; &#8216;Sides, now I have access to their BitTorrent Barn &#8216;n stuff.<br \/>\nThirdly, I was talking to <a HREF=\"http:\/\/www.livejournal.com\/bombasticmarvel\">Bob<\/a> about starting an RP community. I haven&#8217;t done text RPing in about 4 years. And the format would be pretty similar to the way it was back then, but instead of a regular forum, it would use LJ. Sounds like a good idea to me.<br \/>\nIs anyone interested? We&#8217;re not going for a theme; we&#8217;re rather open-ended. We just want to roleplay, goddamn it, not with any rules. If anyone <i>is<\/i> experienced in RPing (I know <a href=\"http:\/\/zell_dincht.livejournal.com\/\" class=\"lj-user\">zell_dincht<\/a> is king at it :P), feel free to give some advice if you&#8217;d like, and anyone&#8217;s welcome to join if and when we do decide to start this thing up.<br \/>\nLastly, I&#8217;m still rabidly checking <a href=\"http:\/\/www.freeipods.com\">freeipods.com<\/a> about my order status. <a HREF=\"http:\/\/www.ecost.com\">eCost<\/a> is their supplier, and the item that&#8217;s out of stock is the 20GB iPod w\/ click wheel. Once that site shows they&#8217;re in stock, chances are my order will be shipped.<br \/>\nSo there&#8217;re my ways to pass the time&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A lot of nothing has been going on, so I&#8217;ve done a few things to try to fill that space.
