Trick or Treat by °chanelqueen17 1 month 1 week ago

^nat
After months of work, chanelqueen17 has created a gorgeous scene of Alice and Oz from Pandora Hearts, using scans that didn't even feature both characters together. Even after spending so much time on matching the details of the characters to their new looks, chanelqueen17 didn't stop there and went all out on the background too! This wallpaper definitely needs to be seen!

1 - downloading anime...then go burn them on dvd or watch them
2 - now am playing GW - Guild wars
3 - going to forrums and make these post
4 - thinking when i see your posts

think everybody thinks that they live sad ...but its you happyniss to stay behind your pc
i think its my black ticket to my futere...my life for my pc...
think i need to get to school before there are more problems come to me...
i think ill die with a pc in the grave ...and i am only 16...its sad ...people would call this sad ...
trowing my life away behind a pc to watch anime and play games... my luck and happyniss risedes
how long i can be on the net...its hurts me thinking about this... ...
(this is real...i am getting tears now...)...if i think about this...



Lol... dont worry, I am sure that you would be able to pick something up that is away from your computer...

Personally, it seems that a lot of people here use the computer a lot. May I suggest reading as a cure? It may even snag you international competitions (like me... haha)."

Banned ip.

3 years 10 months ago

"Dear admins, l logged on to animepaper this morning to find that my ip is banned, while my user account is still ok. For my country's leading broadband isp, all users share the same static isp. If you ban this ip, singaporean members would be unable to access their accounts... I am typing this from a phone gprs account and it costs me a bomb... I believe the ip you banned is 202.156.6.83. Appreciate unbanning that ip so that legit members can still get to the site via their coms. Thanks for any help. "

If anime woulds be banned what would you do?

3 years 10 months ago

"
yeah, above poster with cute love hina ava is right! it's like piracy here in the philippines.. there are laws that ban it, but still, many people thrive in the business of piracy.. and many patronize it.. i have to admit that sometimes i do, but i have m y reasons.. :)

but if it would really happen.. hmm.. that would be crazy.. even frightening.. :(


Haha true true...

but really there would be no point to ban anime at all... currently no anime can be interpreted as a dig at any country or any person (I think)..."

Papers...

3 years 10 months ago

"You just got papers by posting that question...

Papers can be gained in a few ways:
1. Post posts in the forums or commenting on wallpapers(no. of papers gained depends on length of response, subject to a maximum of 100 papers)
2. Submit walls and scans (100 papers per accepted submission)
3. Participate in the lottery (costs you 50 papers but potentially earns you 50*x papers, where x is the number of people participating in the lottery that round)

Papers can be lost in many ways. Too lazy to go into them."

Define being Perfect"

3 years 10 months ago

"
this is in your own opinion there is no right or wrong answer, i'm just curious on how many diferent meanings this word has.

and i meant as a perfect person o.O accidentally posted thread too early~
u can just add little aspects to build to the meaning perfect too ^^

List of meanings xD:
To be able to break someone into pieces
Perfection can only be achieved through an act that you do but not at what you are
Absolutely no idea so doesnt bother to make an attempt
Perfection would seem boring
Perfection is a one sided view because total perfection doesnt exist
To find something imperfect
Jesus... (i dont like this)
To love yourself
Loyal, caring, devoted and good lookin.. (that last part)
Doesnt exist because of "shitbags" (LOL)
Perfection holds diferent value to different people therefore the affect of one person perfections will be diferent for each individual
God is perfect.. (don't like this)
Perfection = Flaw
Perfection doesnt exist
Perfections is an illusion which will cause disruption in the mind
Does not exists, because it only holds meaning in beliefs
Life is cannot be perfect however objects and items can be
God is perfect.. (yet again)


Haha.. you just covered about everything conceivable opinion on perfect...

Anyway, I refuse to go into the religious side about perfect. For me, when you think you are perfect, you are not."

Long distance relationship

3 years 10 months ago

"
buffman4ever-- that's why there is trust! lol.. ^_^ so you should know your beau really well so that you're not even worried by this fact, b/c even if your other ISN"T like that, you will drive yourself crazy if you cannot trust and believe in them enough to KNOW that they won't.

as for the people who say you should just be "friends" and then possibly get back together later.. i don't know >.> i'm in love, so do just be like "it's too far, let's be friends, possibly date/have sex with others, and if it's all good and we meet up then maybe we'll start it up again... but yes, i love you with all my heart" that's just weird! b/c to me that's what it comes down to (my guy and i both are commited and devoted and both our personalities are such that we aren't interested in others). to break up before you even TRY a long distance ((especially if you love that person and have been dating a while --unless you know you'll slip up or that they'll slip up and cheat--)) is kinda just like giving up something just b/c it's not "easy".. I mean, if you try and you find it's not working.. well, at least you tried! but what if you just "give up" but it really would've worked out but you never know cuz you just gave up??

but there are limits to everyone. for me it would be that we'd have to talk EVERY day, pictures to each other, visits at least every 3 months, and would have to be in the US. ((and if he was a party guy, a little flirty, or VERY VERY popular, or only just started dating... then it would be more likely that i'd have doubts and may have to cut it off after a short time))

so yes there's the possibility that my guy and i will change over time and may love love eachother anymore (scary and sad though :'()) at least i know we tried to be together. And the breakup would be understandable then... And then if (which i believe) we make it, then it'll be that much more wonderful b/c we're one of the few couples who have made it and will get to keep our love ^_^ and it'll really show the care and devotion and trust we have for oneanother to make it thru that time apart..


Good luck to you then...

Long-distance relationships work out for some, but dont for others. It all depends on how strong your relationship is. "

Home School or Public School?

3 years 10 months ago

"
there are advantages and disadvantages in both. but if you'll ask me, i personally prefer public schooling. but i'll be getting my kids to home school.

here's a short analysis of mine:

Public school: pros - more friends, better interaction with the outside world. cons - bad influence from bad friends, risk of becming in danger from the streets, bullying, most oftentimes family relationship degrades because of friends and other quality-time issues

Home school: pros: better learning experience since tutorials are dedicated, based from statistics, most college graduates that have high degree like magna cum laude are home schooled, better family relationship, no worry from getting kids in danger. cons: less friends, person who is home-schooled is usually not an outgoing person...

the verdict: if you want your kids to have a better christian life, go for home schooling. the child can get friends from church anyway... :)


Lol... you are quite a devoted christian...

Anyway, you summed it up quite nicely... however, for home schooling it all depends on the quality of the teaching from the parents. Same goes with public schools. If you go to elite schools the teaching there can be very good."

Human Nature

3 years 10 months ago

"
There is something called instincts, and as much as we like to think humans are different from animals, they are only different in the sense they are intelligent and councious (thus, we SHOULD be able to control them), but humans still have the same instincts. There are several instincts that are very hard to get by, even for the most prolific people. Basically, the instincts of a man are three: procriation (thus, we can't deny, most man will drawl all over woman and talk only about them, sex been the top topic), self preservation (no need to explain this), and the need to be better than others (often related to both. In the first so you get higher chances with female, and on the second so you get better chances of survival - being the "leader" means a lot).

One can see clearly where this instincts go, and how they affect people who clearly don't worry about letting their emotions/instincts get in control. It changes slightly from man to woman but here is how it goes, IMHO, to man (i.e. male human nature):

1. They can't get their eyes of woman. Huge self control needed to attain maturity over this.

2. Man are egocentric and will try to be the best of what they do, often to impress woman. Also a lot of self control in order to prevent going to bad stuff here, like violence or unfair competition at work/friends. They also are a lot competitive over being "the best" at something.

3. Man need to feel in power and show power, they are really picky on this. Take a look at most mods (no offence, and I mean in all the internet not AP specifically), they are often rude with users. That's human nature and I don't blaim them. I may be nice being a member, but I were a jerk in every forum/channel I were mod/op >_> They used to call me "Nazi Caiobrz" because I was so rude with noobs. Why? now I see that's because I felt good being in power. I stopped moderating because I couldn't control myself, maybe when I'm older XD this also related to look good to the females and to competition, kindness sometimes is seen as a weekness.

About violence, I don't think it's part of human nature, but if you cannot control your instincts you can eventually became violent. I would say, violence is a consequence of uncontroled human nature xD

I don't think anyone can say they are in control of their instincts, everybody always have a small problem controlling them xD

I won't venture on the consequences of human nature on woman because I'm not one and I don't like to judge them, though I have my views on that too >D


Research by the BBC has shown that violence is part of human nature. There's no two ways about it. It is because there is law and order that therefore our human nature is kept in check. This has already been postulated a long time ago by Thomas Hobbes."

Online dating

3 years 10 months ago

"
heh i have done it... many times... really it can still affect somone the same as a distanced relationship... can be depressing but not depressing... heh idk exactly... i mean i have had anything from girls that said they were 13 but really 18... girls that were pretending to be single but actually have sexual active boyfriends... girls that lie about apperance and how many friends they have... and also girls that tell the truth...
i have also run RP rooms (roplaying) rooms on yahoo, back before they took away user rooms... and it was one of the most popular rooms... named Anime Roleplaying Room ... we had at least 40 people a day 30 being girls... and going all out to the little ammount of guys there... with the guys just acting cocky and godlike, but beside the point.. yahoo is filled with ... "slutty" typed girls... all over the room... trying to get budy budy with every guy in there... i had to start limiting the sex scenes... and other erotic things... so many manwhores too... *sigh*
but overall the online dating community isnt that bad... if you are close in ohter ways than online... because if its just online its prity jmuch like a penpal... whitch could work... just... idk meet someday... ROFL...

or something like that...
i have an online girlfriend... welll distanced... i talk to her online a lot... but yeh... i love her... ^_-



Haha great for you...

Personally, I think online dating is rather harmless fun but it would take a great leap of faith to actually meet the person in real life..."

online chats

"
What are "Chat lines."

Webcamming to people you never met is pretty harmless.

And what is there to disagree about with MSN and similar messengers?


Chatlines, I believe are rather restricted to Asia. They are basically paid (expensive if I may add) services that helps to connect two unknown people together for a phone chat. Personally, such services are a waste of time and also rather dangerous as chatlines in my countries are known to be conduits for people to meet and have sex. "

String Theory... do you believe?

3 years 10 months ago

"
I would say that, in this matter, the terms "true" and "false" will lead us nowhere. The string theory is, as far as I understand it (and unfortunately, that's not very far) just another try to explain the universe (TOE - Theory Of Everything).
But the theory goes further than we can go with our methods of measurement, and we can't test it "in the forseeable future" (wikipedia).
So I'd say so far it's just physicists and mathematicians racking their brains, but at the moment it doesn't have any effect on your average John/Jane Doe.

Interesting though to find that here.


I guess what crownaxe posted is a good start to find some good intellectual discussions about issues affecting the world in animepaper(though I must admit that economics and current affairs, not physics, is my speciality).

John Samuleson once stated that only true premises can lead to true conclusions. False premises, on the other hand, can lead to both true and false conclusions. At this moment, we do not know whether string theory is a false premise or not. As such, given that there is at present no great need for an unified theory, string theory will be, like you said, relegated to the sidelines at this moment. "

Purpose of Life

3 years 10 months ago

"
Life..... Er..... where should I start?

Life is not just about playing PS2, improving your Photoshop skills, surfing the net, watching anime and so on....

Everyone is born without a destiny, we have to decide our destiny ourselves. In that process, we learn different things.
In the end, some people live for money. Some live for the sake of pride and glory. Some, live for each others.
And..... some are lost. Lost people.... in other words, people that have no aim for life.

The reason you live is for you to decide...... You can have multiple purpose of life.
My first destiny is to save others, so their destinies can be achieved.
my second, to live my life to the fullest.
3rd, protect the ones i love, as well as thoes who loves me


Great purposes.

Well, my purpose of life is simple and the same as well: to live life to the fullest and bring joy and happiness to those around me."

A request for to-be Singaporean members

3 years 10 months ago

"Hi,

I have noticed that AP uses a user registering filtering system in which the same IP is not allowed to register twice. However, for Singaporean users, this creates a problem. Most wallers and graphic designers uses a broadband ISP in which all our IPs are the same (202.156.6.83). This prevents people from registering at the site. I had to wait until I went overseas before I could register as a member myself.

Appreciate any help on this matter. Thanks."
