On the day of my graduation I thought;

Well, it took along time.

I battled many a foe, castrated several of them may i let you know, and then, one day, on my birthday no less, i graduate.

Ohh, there was a parade, a festival, several assassination attempts, good times *sighs*

But now I am the man you know and respect, the hero of the times. A champion to few, and lover to many.

So now i must depart, in my absense don't cry whee class peoples. Wait, do cry, weep, scar your self. Have somethign to remember me by!!

Smoke me a kipper, I'll be back for breakfast. A phrase coined by a personal hero of mine. Where would I...wait; Where would we be with out....ACE RIMMER! What a guy.

And then, another hero of mine, me. I mean, I'm a modest man, and i think it's this modesty that has made me a hero to so many out there. Clearly i inspired a generation of posters and Britf00's. But modesty can only get you so far. Sometimes you must just sit back and recognise what a hero you are!!

So friends, brits, and fellow posters. I am here for you. I am your neighbour. Shake it like a polaroid picture! Love, peace, the bohemian ideals that got me so far.

To all my friends here, all the oens not banned, I know you love me. BUt Jagan, Eek and Roark, I just don't swing that way, sorry. No matter how much vodka I aint doing that.

Jen, I know you love me, what can I say?I rock.

Rachel, my friend, fellow hero, almost as beautiful as me, although a nicer arse. SHe rocks aswel ;x

And to my inspiration, PSJ, personal hero. First Britf00 grad, let us give a hand to Psychojon, PSJ, something about DBZ i just can't spell *claps*

So with out further ado, i must say:

Yuri, you rock so hard. So hard, you rock...so hard. Like, if i was a rock, and was in a fight with other rocks, I rock so hard they would shatter under my rocky rocky hardiness!

What a guy I am!

Graduated on 23rd September 2002.

"In those times when you're just feeling so good about your self, just think about me. That'll put you back in you're place."

Ohh, and kudos to themacaque, an amazing guy. I mean, if i did swing that way, with alot of vodka, maybe you ;x

And you know, i love Drake SOOOOOOOO much. Ladies, he may be like 5 years old, but he has a huge wang;

( ) )===============D

But all he can do with it is;

( ) )==[][][]==========D
( ) )=========[][][]===D
( ) )==[][][]==========D
( ) )=========[][][]===D~~~~~~~

Poor guy. Help him out.

Jeez, keep your posts somewhat decent, yuri. I know you aren't good at it, but it might be wise to practice a little discretion. - Biku

If you wana see what Biku don't want you to see PM me ;x

Meh I don't know when I graduated, all I know, was that I could change my title and said to my awesome self: "Now what the f*ck I am supposed to do with that?"

Like most newbees I started, then I climbed the food chain by been one of the oldest members alive and that still remain as a frequent poster.

In all modesty I can say that I am the top of teh evolution of an AA student... :rolleyes: Specially since I started like most people here, but back on the days when mods actually prodeced spam NOT removed spam, everything was so flexible, then a lot of things changed and I changed with them for good or bad.

There isn't much to say about me in the AA, except that I work as a spam filter of some kind...

The first thing I thought when I graduated: "What the hell should I change my title to?"

But, seriously, folks. It's worth it.

It is? It just resulted in me never posting any more. Well that might also be down to the forum content.

I had a custom nick at about 400 posts, so it was nothing big really.

It just made me a role model to all you kids out there.

Come to big daddy Yuri, don't worry he'll look after you.

Meh, I was just like, hey I graduated. I get a funky title, OF MY OWN CHOOSING! But yeah, that was all I really did it for.

When you get right down to it, my policy to when I graduated can be summed up into 8 simple words: I came, I saw, I broke some hips.

There's been some fun times, some drunken fun, some drunken people, but all and all, I don't know when to shut up so I popped a few kegs, chugged a few gallons, and slept naked on some floors.

I'd say the only thing that kept me coming back here is all you looney people. You're all nuts!

Graduated sometime in the early months of 2004.

Heh, how ironic that Madoka-sensei only has 873. ^_^

Graduation just kinda came and went. Nothing special happened. Didn't lose touch with people or anything. Kinda like my actual graduation from high school, except I didn't have to graduate twice.





I'm not a student. :p - Madoka

Edit: Touche.

I graduated 2 years ago.... I can't remember... the effect wore off (XD). Before I graduated I had titles, meh.

When I first joined I didn't think too much of graduating to get a spiffy title, I just posted. It took me longer than some - joined in Jan. 2002, graduated in like... June? July? Aug? Sept!? I think it was July 2002... most others who posted often graduated in like, 3 months. XD *looks at Scarlett*

I stopped posting for about 3-4 months last year, mostly because nothing was happening. Now it's about the same thing, but I figure I'll drop in enough. Hell, the AA forums are in my homepages, so I see it no matter what. XD

Almost at 2000 posts o_0 Though I remember when the admin and some mods had like 20,000 + posts, there wasn't even that amount total from the whole forum! >_>

Remember children, do not, I repeat DO NOT BE LIKE ME! I know that you all idol worship me, but that's okay. But don't be me. No, one of me is one too many, and I'm sure many of you can allude to that. If you choose to act of impersonate me (which I know you all want to do, be prepared to have yourself castrated, beaten, tortured, only so that you can then wreak havoc on little n00bs who suck at life and thier c0cks (.:coughcoughyakazulucoughcough::.), be my guest. I won't save you. Oh, and be prepared on getting banned. A lot.

And always remember, vanchu>Kain>Jagan>Crapse>me>Biku>Yuri>all.

Pay no heed to the last sentence.

Well, this is my 1000th post so I figured it would be appropriate to put it in the graduation thread. I want to say thanks to Madoka for starting this thread!

AA is the best place I've found to talk about anime without having to read a bunch of garbage to find quality discussion material.

I guess I'll take up post graduate studies in mecha design, or something like that. :)

I remember the day I graduated. I think it was in the afternoon, after I got home from practice. I was eating burritos and drinking Gatorade, Glacier Freeze flavor. All I could think about was my precious food and wonderful nourishing beverage. I didn't remember posting, but I did, because I remember saying "Hot Damn! 1000 posts Baby!! Time to officially declare myself as the Lucy Hale Fan Boy." All in all, pretty ok experience.

I donno what the hell Phelddagrif is talking about. Everyone wants to be just like me, the resident Sexy Beast. None of the mods could match up to me, cause I'm so damn sexy! I'm so hot that you could stack 20 steaks on my stomach and it would grill all of them to perfection.

*perks up* what was fun was how i got away with it!

i squeaked and screencapped. that screenie is gone now, but it's the normality of the memory that matters. *bullshits* oh, i remember talking to grive about it on IRC, saying that i'll catch up to his post count soon. he sure kicked my ass though when he shifted from fast to psycho-posting gear, his is twice as much mine and 20 times more legitimate.

well, anyway, i'm just upset that my crown as AA's most hyper child have been taken away from me. i guess i'm... bitter. oh well, they still can't take away my XD's and my o.o's.

m'kay, i'm done.

Well this is my graduating post and I'd like to say........
I don't know what, I'm graduating, I can have a custom title now, woo hoo? Just kidding, I'm glad that I'm graduating. I pretty much feel the same though. I don't even know what I'm gonna put as my title yet either, I'll think of something, cya around campus.

One more thing, AA kicks ass!!!

Hey kick ass I graduated. It's kinda sad though that I don't feel happy. I am grateful that you guys respect me as much as an average schmoe.....not as much as the profs, the mods and Corpse, but at least I'm known. I can finally say to myself and you guys that I'm not underated at AA. And finally Disney and Nick suck ass!

/me have managed to manipulate the system such that he graduated.
...............................
A.K.A, he spammed an ungodly large amount of posts all over AA

My thoughts?
Not much. Took me quite a while, compared to some. Almost left twice, once because I almost lost interest in anime, and the other because of work (until I found out the boss does not really care if I post from work or not...)...

Anyway, there's going to be nothing different.... maybe something, but not much (looks at "Graduate Student" below a certain name, gotta change that). But its still going to be the same bunch of people in here, the same topics, the same AA.

Just one thing: Please Don't Ban Me Now!! You are evil if you do!! ( j/k :D:D )

Actually, AlterGenesis-X is graduating.:D

Well, it was a long senior year, longer than my Freshman, Sophomore and Junior years combined, but I'm here. I am the biggest nobody on these forums. I get the award for the most unknown graduate and I'm so happy. In short, I can finally be teh shit.:D

Oh boy, this is the big 1 to the triple 0! I feel...meh, nothing special really. Unless a friendly mod feels like giving me a title with prettier colors, I'll just be keeping this one, so it's not like it matters that I can change my own. At least I can say I'm better than Phate?

i was hoping for a feeling more emotional than this...now that ive finally got a 1000 posts, i realize that this is gonna be a really forgettable moment.

damn you, zee'd. its all your fault.

i dont know, maybe this would have been less forgettable if i wasnt posting so late at night.

1000th post, and still here bothering people. And it only took a year and a half!!! I'll admit it's kinda cool to have "graduated". Custom title is going to be fun. Also, after being here this long, it started seeming wierd not to have "graduated" yet. Ah well. Now what. Obsessing about the color of my stars?

Bottom line: AA is a great place. It was well worth the time spent posting a thousand times. Big thank you to everyone who has shared cool conversations over the these 1000 posts. (Sappy enough, Yurika Star?).

nuff said.

09-25-2004, 11:40 PM
ever since i became a senior, i've been thinking how cool it would be to have a custom title for myself. i would occasionally think about what i would put in there.

and now that ive graduated, look at my title now! i have no idea what to put in there, so it remains "graduated student"

Woot! I graduated! Now to watch the fanfare as people witness my great feat in all my glory! Muahaha!....*looks around. Crickets chirp. I appear to be in an empty Wal-Mart store* Aw Son of a B*tch! No balloons or nothing. This sucks. I'm going home...

Anyways, I appear to have graduated, after starting to post around January 2004. I've had some good discussions, and fun arguments (particularly annoying Senshi about Half-Life 2 and Halo 2) *dodges Senshi's thrown brick*. Also, I took the time to tell all my thoughts in my posts, and didnt spam to achieve a high post count which I'm particularly proud of. However, graduating doesnt seem like the biggest thrill I thought it would be. But it does feel all warm and fuzzy inside to have that 1000 below your name and avatar. I think all is said and done....except...

MOO MOO! DONKEY NACHOS! PIE BOUNCING SLINKIE BOTTOMS! WABBA WABBA CHOO CHOO! FHWHWAGADS! I LIKE PUDDING!

Ah it's great to graduate *gets taken to the insanity dorm*

Heh, looks like I can still update this post, even after so long. It's November 2005 by now. Anyway, I forgot to list my thanks to the small amount of friends here.

Elric: A fun, awesome person to chat with about anime and video games. I enjoyed our chats on MSN, where hours could fly by before I knew it.
DK: Thanks for helping me get my sig. Also, the times we had on Halo 2 were fun. I wish we could chat some more sometime.
Zirilan: You're pretty much in the same league as DK, but very fun to play Halo 2 with online as well. If you're ever on Halo 2, we should play some custom matches sometime.

Holy, I really don't have many friends here. Ah well, *finds my liquor flask and goes to sit in a corner*. At least I still have rum.

just a quick question for all you graduates out there:

how many of you people actually planned on making 1000+ posts? cause i sure as hell didnt. i originally planned on leaving after i hit one or two hundred posts, but for some reason, i just stayed and kept posting...till i hit the 1000 mark.

A pair of girls where hugging each other and crying not far from where I was standing. I focused on them for a second, trying to figure out what could possibly bring them to such a scene. It was our day of graduation, and they were unhappy. After watching them for a time, I trailed my gaze around the gymnasium at the other students who were in the same situation. Most them were congratulating each other. Some were chatting up with the teachers about the time they spent here. But all of them were saying goodbye.

That was what puzzled me the most. Why did the end of one part of our lives have to automatically mean we had to leave it behind? So many regarded graduations as being synonymous with a permanent farewell. To me those people were short sighted. You could always keep in touch with people and meet up with them to stay close. Was it perhaps that people wansted their graduations to be an excuse to get away from the past and move on to the future? Did people inherantly want to get away from the people they'd spent the closest years of their life with?

Perhaps it didn't hit me as hard as the others because I hadn't developped such deep relationships with anybody while being here. I had a fairly shallow existence amongst the student body. It wasn't that I was particularly aloof or that I didn't want to make friends, it was just that I was always so focused on my classwork that I never had time for it. Those who were capable of going out, making friends, hanging out, and generally goofing off while still managing to graduate were people who baffled me. I had spent so much time and hard work getting my grades, but others could get those grades without as much effort. Was it just that I needed the extra concentration? I guess I'll never know now.

And yet, while I was musing about all this, I suddenly felt very alone. A few of the other students who I had been acquaintences with had come up and congratulated me, but none of them really tried to strike up a conversation with me. It wasn't familial at all, merely obligatory. I suddenly found myself hating them for doing it, and it took every ounce of my self control not to berate them like I would normally do when someone does something so stupid.

I must have had an obvious look of consternation on my face, because someone noticed and placed a small hand softly on my shoulder.

"10 yen for your thoughts?" came a familiar female voice.

"Is that all they're worth?" I replied, not looking up at her. I knew who she was and what she looked like anyway.

"I'll go as high as 100, but they'd better be worth it," she smirked. I could hear her smirk. After so many arguements and confrontations, I could pretty much tell what she was doing without even looking. Was a very odd feeling knowing someone more then you felt comfortable with.

I sighed, not at all in the mood for dramatics. I opened my mouth to say something but stopped. I really didn't know what to say.

"Graduation blues?" Asked the Student Body President.

I shook my head slowly, and finally looked up at her. "I don't think it is that. It has more to do with the last few years of my life more then the current day's proceedings."

I pulled my left hand out of my pocket and made a gesture to accentuate my point, "all of this has been a very rewarding experience of my life, but for some reason it seems so empty; so unimportant in the grand scheme of things."

She seemed puzzled by that, "You don't feel as though you've had a rewarding experience here?"

I scratched my head softly and admitted it to her, "No. I feel like I've learned everything well enough, and that I have enjoyed learning what I didn't know before, but for some reason it still feels worthless."

"Maybe it's because you never learned how to have fun," this time she averted her gaze to something else. "It seemed as though the only time you were ever truly alive and active was when you were biting someone's head off. Or during our 'discussions'."

I thought about that a second. "Even then, I don't think I was really happy. It's hard to be happy when you're angry at someone or frustrated."

She arched her eyebrow at me, "are you trying to tell me that all those times you went out of your way to find something to fight with me about, you weren't happy?"

"No." What a stupid thing to ask! "The hell would I be happy yelling at you for?"

"Because you had me all to yourself, even if it wasn't positive attention." Annie was glaring at me now.

I blushed a bit and raised my voice, "Why the hell would I want your attention?"

She rolled her eyes, sighed, put both of her hands on my cheeks and focused my eyes so hers could penetrate mine. "I have heard Professor Madoka's "Anime Heros and Love Denial Plot Devices" lectures a few hundred times since I've been here. I know when someone has feelings for me, even if they don't know it yet."

Annie let go of my face but continued, "I've been here a long time, and have had more then my fair share of boys chasing me: stupid little crushes all the way to obsessive adoration." after swallowing at that thought, she went on, " I know now how to recognize when someone's got a thing for me."

There was a long pause, then she turned to look at me again. "Not that I have an ego about such things, mind you."

Student Body President Annie May was the only person I knew who could shut me up. Her blunt and aggressive nature was always something I admired, though I had never told her that. And now as I was thinking about everything in the last four years, there were a lot of things I admired about her, but never told her. The more I thought about it, the more her words hit home, and the more fearful I grew.

"H.. have I really wasted all this time when I could have at least tried to find happiness?" I choked a bit as I said that. She didn't reply, it wasn't really a question. "Could I have spent all this time with you instead of against you?"

She looked as far away from my face as she could, "If you're asking me whether or not I would have gone out with you," she swallowed again and closed her eyes, "I don't know. A lot has happened since I came here, and a lot more has happened during the time you've been here."

She looked up at me again and groaned, "I've had a kind of crazy last few years."

So many things were flooding in my mind and so many emotions were running through my heart. And for the first time this morning, I really felt like I was losing something by graduating. I now understood what everybody else in that gymnasium must have been going through.

"If you want, we can talk about this later," she said softly, "I have to get to the podium now for the ceremonies."

She left when I nodded, I couldn't really say anything more anyway. I turned and followed her as she stepped up onto the stage and engaged herself in conversation with Dean Kain.

I didn't feel so lonely anymore. I didn't feel regretful about the last few years now. In fact, right now I was feeling elated that I had finally come to grips with the truth. I was in love with her. It felt great just to admit that to myself!

Regardless of what happened later, at that moment everything about my tenure at Anime Academy had been worth it. I was a graduate with a future, and now, a past.

Well I finally graduated so I think so thank yous are in order:

First I'd like to thank Anime Academy and its staff for creating a place that I can visit and procrastinate instead of doing work like I should.

I'd like to thank genki sakura, the first friend I made on Anime Academy. We met long ago (March) when I got in trouble over trying to tell her where to get fansubs and I didnt know the rules... Ah memories...

I'd like to thank all the people in 3ADOS (Anime Academy Azumanga Daioh Obsession Society) for being so unbelievably awesome and realizing the sheer brilliance of Azumanga Daioh... Thanks to you, Chiyo is happy and not crying:

before 3ADOS:

After 3ADOS
http://members.aol.com/yukiyamasou/seiyuu/chiyo-seiyuu.jpg

I'd like to thank Leonef, my British HL2 buddy, for joining forces with me to defend the greatest game ever made against the Halo 2 fanboys...

I'd like to thank all the people on the Annie May Thread: DK, Ziri, Realist, UZ, GS, Shino, etc... (sorry if I forgot you). Sorry about the ball-kicking clones of myself, but it was fun sometimes right?

I'd like to thank all the people who started flame wars with me... those really helped the ole post count (namely T.I.F., Jetfire, and the Pro-China group on the Japanese war crimes thread)...

I'd like to thank everybody who visited my Art Thread and commented on my sheer lack of talent...

And lastly, I'd like to thank YOU for actually reading this...

hope I didnt forget anybody ;)

*UZ walks in* YESSS!!! *UZ walks out*

Just kidding. Yes, this is my 1000th post in this lovely forum. 1000 posts and I am already well known. Think about it. You have only said about 1000 things (Not counting Miscelanious things, of course...) to your fellow comrades, and everyone knows you? Well, I feel great now. I get a custom title! Don't you all worry your little heads off, UZ is going to stay around for a lot longer and annoy you all with his inginious posts for a long time to come, i hope! I may be the only real active membert of UZ and the gang on anime academy (Well, except Jed...) but I think I've made up for all of them... Boy, look at me, I'm rambling! No, I didn't say I was going to stop. This is my 1000th post, and I'm makin' it count, dangit! Lets see, people to thank... Ah, I know! Her eis a list of the people that I like most on AA, beacuse of various reasons. If you are on the list, hooray, you have earned the respect of UZ.

Genki Sakura (My first friend!)
TwinChaosX (He showed me the site.)
Zee'd (For making me my old "Uncle Herbie" sig, the coolest sig ever.)
Senshi (Because the SENSHI BOTS pwn j00 all.)
Animeantoinette (Cause she's just cool, thats why.)
Linuts (For making the Annie May thread.)
El Jonno (For backing up all my statements.)
Moe (Cause he's also cool, albeit annoying...)
Veraca (What, do I need to back up all my statements?)
Lucky (She likes my comics.)
Kagome_Rocks (Yes, I know she quit, but she was cool)
ranmagirltype (For being my lover during my time in the RP thread.)
PoX (Because he's PoX!)
Der Hamp... er... Smitty (Another person who's just plain cool.)
Jedinator (Automatic, because he's in my gang.)

Yea, that's my super cool list. I might update it occasionally, if someone else proves their friendship towards me. Not that anyone really cares about being on the said list. OK, thats my 2 cents :twocents: in this thread. I might return once and awhile to chat, but for now, SEE YA! :bowing:

Holy shit wow...finally! Finally I can stand in my chosen place amongst the graduated elite! Finally I can experience the joy of a custom title! Yeah, I made it and it didn't take too long either.

*tearful*

I'd like to thank Elric for nearly always being there to chat to about anything anime and manga related, ranmagirltype for being the only person on this whole forum apart from me that likes Plastic Tree and the numerous fun chats that have followed as a result of our shared love of the best band ever, Leonef for being a seriously nice guy and one that understands the numerous downsides of being a British anime fan, Tamashii for just being generally cool, KiraraKim for our FMA chats, JaQuais J. for saying nice things about my sigs, Yokuhiro for being generally strange and amusing, everyone who has joined my Fullmetal Alchemist Obsession Club, and last but not least risen hell fire and Cruz Yukari for putting up with my merciless teasing. Hope I haven't forgotten anyone! :)

I never thought I would get here, and I did.
I also managed to do it without spamming (at least I don't think so) and I think I've been generally kind to everyone :).
I don't know many of you very well, but I hope to. I wish I had people to thank, but I guess the people I can really only thank are the people that made me want to dedicate myself to this forum. The people who have graduated before me have really seet quite and example, and I hope to do the same for people who are just joining.
Thank you all for being such a great source for me to discuss and learn about anime for almost 2 years.

So I was standing around by the vending machine with my friends, and one of them asked me, "What are you going to do now that you're graduating?"

It took me a moment to think of a response, because in all honesty I'd never really thought about it before. I'm the type of person who lives in the present, so while I was consciously aware that graduation would eventually occur, I'd never really planned for it.

"I think I'll stick around and go for graduate study," I said. After all, I enjoyed my time in academia, and I enjoy the subject matter. It made sense.

"You're just afraid to move on," he said. Now what was that supposed to mean? I asked him, and he told me that in my fear of change, I was doing everything possible to keep things the way they were. The idea of a the real world beyond a scholastic environment frightened me, and so I rejected it in favor of continued education.

I thought about this for a while. What he was saying seemed to make sense, after all. Was I really so afraid of real life that I would remain cowering behind my studies for the rest of my life? I asked some fellow students about it, and they said it was all a matter of perspective. What were my priorities in life? Hell if I know. That's the whole problem. So I went back over my time here, making special note of all the times I really enjoyed myself. And then I realized that the learning was my priority. Expanding my mind made me truly happy, and I reveled in the thought of further opportunities to do so.

So the next day at the vending machine, I told my friend to shove it. Graduate school really fit my personality, I told him. I could spend an eternity learning new things. He laughed, so I punched him in the gut. Then I ran, because I may not be afraid of the working world, but I am afraid of a guy two belts up who's three inches taller than I am.

So I'm staying enrolled. My ultimate goal is to perhaps become a professor someday, or maybe start an academy of my own. Who knows? The possibilities are endless. For now, I'll just enjoy my time here as I always have.

Plus, you know...more classes with Professor Liegenschonheit (snap snap wink wink grin grin nudge nudge say n'more).

Cue "Pomp and circumstance march - no 1" by Elgar (the most overly used graduation music)

Graduation day: March 22, 2005, Tuesday at 2:11AM AUS-EDST...

Well, now... where to start?

So many things I've done here, so many memories and relatively speaking I haven't been here for that long. Heck, I came here last August.

What can I say? AA was the very first forum that I ever got into and from it basically I took root and became one very big forum trawler on so many other forums around the world, spreading the good news that AA proclaims :D And it's been since the get go.

I'm reminded of my very first post and I have to thank Dark Kanti for actually welcoming me and not pushing me away like some worthless noob even though my very first post was indeed noobiating (it was about a topic that was already in existance and in the wrong forum).

Now, to my fellow Australians; Naota. Seriously dude, I tried to find you in Manifest last year but so many things were going on that it was impossible to get find just one person... oh well there's this year again. Oh and though they have yet to graduate, I really would like to say "good on 'ya" to Major Tom and twotwenty for our constant appraisal of Haibane Renmei...

Professor soundchazer, I know that I may have seemed to be trying to actually make you look bad in some of the threads like the recent professorship one and about you wanting details of the female student body... but I hope that you took them all in jest and I meant no harm... I like your reviews :p

To my RPG buddies in the "So I was talking with Annie May yesterday..." thread. Zirilan, genki sakura, Senshi, Readordie, Saya-biki, risen hell fire, animefreak_CM, realist and once again DK and MT, and especially Annie May (:p)... the thread that I started which to date is my most successful one so far, I owe to your persistance and creativity. And of course to everyone as well for pushing that thread to a very healthy start.

As the Vice-President of the "I love Veraca fanclub", I have to give special mention to of course, Veraca... we both started here at the same time but you graduated so much earlier than I have... you are a shining beacon to us all since I have hardly ever seen you post spam... only ever good art posts... well, except that one time when we seemed to take over one of the Gundam music threads... of course shadowflamedx needs a thanking to for allowing me to be his vic-president.

Smitty needs to be mentioned as well because she says my taste in music is worth taking notice of and that's a big thing coming from a choir girl. otaku needs to be mentioned as well because of her liking for Aussies... While I'm at it, Mei you were fun, as well as Ritalin, who along with all the other girls of the Miss Anime Academy competition gave me a whole heap of fun during my summer vacation.

I am not going to forget UZ_white for finally getting into shape the subsequent Mr Anime Academy competition in which I am now forever recognised (for a year :p) as supreme being ultraman on campus. Alex too needs to be thanked for pushing for the custom title that I have now.

Twinchaos_X, too bad the AA bookclub didn't take off as well as we would have liked... hmm... maybe in the future when the old generation forgets the relative failure of it we can start it again... You know what, I think Pheldargrif (or however that's spelt) needs a thank you for me in that he actually said one my artistic photo edits was good (I usually feared bad stuff coming from him)...

Ok, finally, I can't really remember the exact reason for thanking any of the following people, but still, there it is, somehow or other you have been fun enough to deserve it at the very least: Tremolo, shizukuchan, Mugs (oh yeah, thanks for the shiny title), Kain, Bane the ECF, Ender (trust you to be there with all things Gundam) and I'm probably missing other people... if I forgot you just tell me and I'll be sure to thank you personally...

I'm fairly certain I'm going to be sticking around here for much longer than you might believe... my goal now is to make it to the first page when you click at the memberslist and arrange them on number of posts... after that, who knows...

Now where are those sandwiches that by my count are well expired by now?

Freya- well..do I really need an explanation for that one??? lmao *licks freya*
liegenshonheight (omg I totally botched her name sorry!) cuz she's cool and her graphics rock! and she introduced me to pierrot and abunch of other fricking awsome jrock

Most memorable AA moment? I was drunk for most of it, but I remember something about underpants.
Favorite AA moment [which is different 'cause bad stuff can be memorable too]? When I discovered it and made my first post.
Post-graduation plans? Hit on all the chicks. Oh wait, everyone else is doing that. Maybe I'll just hang out and watch Soundchazer do that for me.
Favorire forum? General Anime.
Favorite thread? Hmm... The hentai discussion thread was fun.
Favorite fellow AA member? Oh, wait, never mind, that's me, of course. :D :) Of course. But I love you all.
AA pet peeve(s)? All the threads that begin, "Has anyone seen xxx Anime?"
Vanilla or chocolate? Ice cream: Chocolate.
Any words of wisdom to those aspiring to graduate? Graduation will probably come faster than you think. But if it doesn't, don't worry. Nothing changes when you graduate.
Best guess as to who will graduate next? Tyrdium. Almost everyone who joined the same time as me and posted consistently has graduated before me. I've slowed down over the past few months.

Wow I acually graduated.. and I did it in less than 1 year upon join date (which I barely made it)

Theres a whole lot I do want to thank (even though none of you mentioned me in describing other aa personalities and that hurts! *gumbles* )since this was a much different forum experience than ever before. Now for the thank you's and stuff. Theres alot even if if the chats were never big, but should get some reconition.

Professors:
Liegenschonheit- First professor friend (well acually talked to her before she became professor) and felt we have a solid bond. A great person I can trust.

Now for the misc......

Tremolo- Very first AA friend :) Sometimes I think he tries to run away from me.
Moe- He sometimes look out for me and I consider him a caring friend.
SakuraBlossom- Shes sweet and caring to me. So far the only one that we share manga together on AIM. Like a female best friend on AA.
HybirdDragon- The very first person to acually contact me first outside AA (99.9% of the time I have to go greet you!) plus an FF junkie like me!
Mana- Very first IRC friend :)
Roark- We had interesting chats despite our different interests.
TIF- Really scares me, but very wise. The odd hero of the forums.
Saya-Biki- Got me into Disgaea
Spilled Milk- We <3 Nintendo!
DirtyHarry- Met him on IRC and have very simular tastes 9for the most part) so I consider him my counterpart.
Lucky- One of my first AA friends.
DarkKanti- We had fun chats and got me into Guilty Gear a bit. Great reivewer too!
Phelddagrif- First club I joined was his and he still owes me Las Vegas slave girls for finding him a song! I still remember the one night I did anime trivia with him and pwned him .hack//SIGN triv!
Loner- Sharing some shoujo tastes, rpg love and go corrupt peoples minds.
Veraca- Great taste in games as well and no you can't make me learn other languages! :P. Also my mini guide for Star Ocean: Till The End Of Time
Ritalin- Taught me some art and originally made me go get Star Ocean.
ShinoMatrix- I thought hes a great guy, but damn time zones!
JOJO- sure hes spammy, but harmless and I do admire how tough he is from all your flaming.

Also thank you my story fanbase xamdbz01, Jiffyjimbothe3 and Sohryu. You guys gave me some confidence in myself
*gives you all hugs*

Well thats it... finally...

If I forgot your name, im suorry or perhaps its because of one of the following reasons.
-I forgot so you can go maul me
-I havent chat with you enough
-Some I see only around IRC (like you Sanzo)
-Got nothing nothing fancy to same.

Now wheres my graduation presents?!

DirtyHarry- Met him on IRC and have very simular tastes 9for the most part) so I consider him my counterpart.
Lucky- One of my first AA friends.
DarkKanti- We had fun chats and got me into Guilty Gear a bit. Great reivewer too!
Phelddagrif- First club I joined was his and he still owes me Las Vegas slave girls for finding him a song! I still remember the one night I did anime trivia with him and pwned him .hack//SIGN triv!
Loner- Sharing some shoujo tastes, rpg love and go corrupt peoples minds.
Veraca- Great taste in games as well and no you can't make me learn other languages! :P. Also my mini guide for Star Ocean: Till The End Of Time
Ritalin- Taught me some art and originally made me go get Star Ocean.
ShinoMatrix- I thought hes a great guy, but damn time zones!
JOJO- sure hes spammy, but harmless and I do admire how tough he is from all your flaming.

Also thank you my story fanbase xamdbz01, Jiffyjimbothe3 and Sohryu. You guys gave me some confidence in myself
*gives you all hugs*

Well thats it... finally...

If I forgot your name, im suorry or perhaps its because of one of the following reasons.
-I forgot so you can go maul me
-I havent chat with you enough
-Some I see only around IRC (like you Sanzo)
-Got nothing nothing fancy to same.

Now wheres my graduation presents?!

PS: There are more I want to talk to here, but got no messenger so *thumbs down to you for not having on*

What?!?!? I get no mention?

Wow I acually graduated.. and I did it in less than 1 year upon join date (which I barely made it)

Theres a whole lot I do want to thank (even though none of you mentioned me in describing other aa personalities and that hurts! *gumbles* )since this was a much different forum experience than ever before. Now for the thank you's and stuff. Theres alot even if if the chats were never big, but should get some reconition.

HybirdDragon- The very first person to acually contact me first outside AA (99.9% of the time I have to go greet you!) plus an FF junkie like me!


Aw how nice. I really didn't do anythin that important. The only thing I do is inspire people. You for one, and I hope to inspire more people like The Doctor or somethin. Glad ya mentioned me.

Since i don't see post count as such a big deal i wasn't planning on posting in this thread, but someone suggested that i should save my 1000 post for this thread... so here i am, gratuated from AA in about 3 months.
If it's about thanking people:
Kuroneko: The first nice person i meet in AA, she's not around here often but i still talk to her.
AOJ:It's Junko :cutie, what more needs to be said?
Moe: Apparently he was the most unpopular guy here until i took away his title :D, but that whole conversation in the "describe other AA user personality" thread was one of the best ever.
Elric: He's a nice guy(not to mention that he made me a sig :cool: )and because for some reason he admires me for not being affected by flaming, but it's not the flaming in forums that made me strong against insults...
Tremolo: post....count....up, LOL

And my most memorable moments in AA..........talking with the people i just mention, and i guess seeing those comics where i show up.

Moe
06-24-2005, 12:01 PM
and then moe came and graduated....... he'll be back with a speech and stuff later.... or when moe can think of all the things moe needs to say........

Junko
06-24-2005, 12:07 PM
Oh I didnt know we were supposed to thank people... hold on then.

um... ok....


JOJO: Not as bad as everyone says he is. He's a great guy and if you talk to him you'll see it yourself.
Moe: Another good friend. He needs to shave his mustache...
Doctor Soundchazer: The Nice Proffesor. Witht he exception being the DMT thing we've never had a problem with each other and we're still cool. (See I mentioned you :p)
Shai_Lupin: She's new here and she's a great person. Hope to be good friends with you!
Linuts: You make the funniest comicsw I've read in awhile. Thanks for your compliments on my crap-art.
Saya-Biki: The only person my age... not much else though... yah and he has a sword! :)
RHF: Almost forgot you. Um... yah.
Shadowmage: A real quiet guy but a nice person in all. Always has something to contribute. :)

All I can remember for now...

Moe needs to stop talking in the third person and use less periods now that he's graduated. ;) Keep checking back/refreshing your profile and the custom title option should appear.

ok here's my speech....

And the day came, to when i graduated. I realised there were many paths to take to get here. i chose one you all know about. Although not proud of my path i made it here unbanned. This day i never would have thought i would get here, but i did get here, among the top ppl's. I love to thank the ppl who loved me... and hated me... i hope you guys no longer hate me, but what ever.... i hope i will be able to make better posts and stuff like that, but i can't promise anything. and may this day forth bring a better moe.

i'd like to give a shout out to some of the members....

Lucky: although she no longer comes and posts here. she was a really cool person...
Elric: one of my best buds....
Ziri: awesome RPG person.....
RHF: just one cool dude.
MajorTom: another great RPG person, he like ziri always have great story line in the annie may RPG thread......
AOJ: My newly acquired friend, very nice person.....
Otaku: another person.... that we talked to eachother a lot.... esp in the RP for ye thread...
Veraca: just one of those ppl i like, she's a cool person..... gfot annoyed by me, but thats ok....
JOJO: Gave me a better name, j./k....... he's an ok dude, you guys should really look outside of the post count......
Linuts: for all his comics, and making me a character that everyone loves..... i now have a mustache.....
tremolo: just one of thos cool ppl......

08-07-2005, 12:06 AM
Finally, a post that is on topic

This, my good peoples, is my 1000th post. :thewave: :yes:

:twodrunks

well, 100oth official post, if the stuff in misc. (the Annie My RPG thread particularly) counted, I would have graduated a long time ago.

Now, for the story:

It wasn't a happy day in the Acadmey. Strange forces abounded, and friends were turning against each other.

Dark Kanti had left, Annie was turning into a zombie, Shino was too worried about Annie to due his duties, and Zirilan and Major Tom were enough stress to break a bridge.

The incident of Zirilan trying to kill DK hadn't helped much either.

The morning following Dark Kanti's sudden departure, Dean Kain pulled aside Major Tom.

'Look things have been getting a little gloomy around here, so I've organised a little something.'

He led MT into the functions hall, which was almost completely repaired. In there were a number of people. Annie May, with Shino standing behind her, Zirilan, Genki Sakura, AnimeFreek, and a few others. Kain and MT went up onto the stage.

'What's all this, Dean? We've got a lot of work to do.' MT asked.

'Major Tom' Kain announced to eveybody 'You have been studying the Anime Academy's Anime Warriors course, but recent events have forced you to postpone your studies.'

He grabbed a rope dangling down from the stage.

'But, in the last few months, events here have given you more combat training and experience that we could ever provide. It is the decision of the remaining faculty members that you be gradutated with full honours from the Anime Warriors course!'

He pulled the rope, and a large banner dropped down.

'Congratulations on Graduating Major Tom!' it said. Doors flung open, and attendants started bringing out tables of food.

'And to celebrate, we will be having a party!' The Dean exclaimed.

Major Tom grabbed at the Dean's sleeve. 'Why a party, why for me?'

'We need something to put some cheer back into the place. Everyone has been in the dumps, and it's affecting the goings on around here. Besides, this has been on the cards since the invasion was repelled, so what better opportunity to have a party.'

With that, Kain pushed MT down the stairs, into the crowd of people, who began applauding Major Tom's accomplishment.

How's that? It took me a while, in fact, I didn't think I'd ever make it this far!

I'd like to thank ShinoMatrix, Zirilan, Dark Kanti, Genki Sakura and the others who frequent the 'So I was talking to Annie May.....' thread.......and I bet there is a whole lot of other people who need thanking but I can't quite remember their names now....

So a blanket thankyou all!

ok...some people I happen to want to mention...
RHF-back when I was a n00b I would always post in the "Have you ever" thread and "Word Association" thread when he was around. Good times...good times...he also draged me around in the RP, back when I was active...though my lack of activity seemed to put both of us at a loss there...someday we'll finish that fight :p

AOJ-when I came here...I had no idea about you...I wasn't expecting to become friends honestly. Ah but you're cool, drew me in the fanart thread

Niner-Yeah...we never really talked, but you were always a nice guy

Moe-we were allies for about 2 posts in the RP thread :XD:

Pox and Isolatedotaku-all I have to say is...Azumanga Daioh The Manga

Linuts-c'mon...he's awesome...

Elric-Gave me a GBA emulator for my Bday. Plus many a NIS chats ^^


Shinomatrix, Zirilan, Dark Kanti, Genki Sakura, Senshi, Major Tom...and anyone else who was in the RP-that was fun :D


To all others- Thanks for not flaming me and being nice. And some of you are nicer than others(and who I've talked to XD), though you may have not been mentioned. Want a list? of course you do

Ah yes... Twotwenty, you're still not in Melbourne, are you?

Well, even if you were still around town, I wouldn't be much for celebrations for your gradtuation anyway... damn fell sick after Manifest...

No thanks, I'll have a screaming orgasm! XD

Holy deleted spam buckets, Batman! A second graduation! I suppose this time I'll say something a little more meaningful.

I joined the AA early in the 12th grade and stayed here ever since, so in a way this academy of sorts has played a part in one of the most education-orientated times of my life. The Academy theme really works well for this site as the professors and everyone on the forums really have a more non-fanboyish attitude with a great understanding of story and character. I've had film students and tutors in my screenwriting class comment on my film and script analytical skills, and I really can't think of any other thing, other then the AA, that influenced me.

Liking anime, does help with my Japanese study too. As I've said before it gives me some great contemporay sources for vocab and listening comprehension, so I'd like to thank the AA for directing me to quality anime.

Basically, the last two and a half years on this forum has been a blast and I'm very thankful that I stumbled upon it in late February 2003 while looking for some info on a cool looking anime called FLCL six months into my anime fandom. It was the first internet forums I'd ever joined and stuck with so everytime I join another I can't help but to compare it. Who knows! If I had started off with some of the more fanboyish forums I've come across, I'd proabaly be a different person then what I am today!

Anyways, here's one of those people lists that tend to be popular in this thread. Mine consists of people I've met, communicated with or who I just think are awesome:

VLad, Major Tom, ShinoMatrix, Noata, Riatlin, Tremolo, Phate, Le Bread, Shadowmage, Linuts, Sanda, Alex San Lyra, Dark Kanti, Sorrow-kun, runic myth, TIF, Zirilan, soundchazer, Madoka, Kurorakuda, Ojisan, Zee'd, Lady Sage, Yuri, all the Mods and Profs, ect. I know there are many more, so sorry to those I've missed.

I think he means that this thread being exclusive for graduates is wrong because it promotes the idea that quantity of posts is better than quality of posts. In a way he is right, but I don't really see the big deal. It's one thread. It's not like there's an entire forum dedicated just to those people with a thousand posts. There's nothing to get too angry about.

Lavi

We already have a thousand posts. I really don't care anymore; 75% of my last 200 or so posts were posted in the miscellaneous sections.

Someone just deleted a few posts, too. My count went down by 10 posts. Cool.

Quality over quantity? Last time I checked, only Shizuku-chan does this on a regular basis. I say he should be made an alumni just for the quality of his posts.

DarkKanti
10-02-2005, 03:36 PM
I know it's way off topic, but why's he gone? And why are people's post counts being lowered?

Tyrdium
10-02-2005, 04:25 PM
Sorry to butt into the grads only thread, but shizu's gone. Hence some members post counts being lowered. Most everything is gone.*checks the members list*

:eek:

WHAT THE FSCK?!?

Same, if not more. I wonder if I'll ever get gold stars at this pace... :_lol:

And welcome to the "cultural elite" 2-20, congrats.

P.S. WHY IS SHIZU GONE?!?! :whine: He will be missed.

Major Tom
10-02-2005, 06:35 PM
Congratulations, again, for 2-20. That means another party!

I had noticed the post count thing going down, and now I know why. Tis a shame that shizu left, I liked him.

Oh noez! I crackeded da code!

Complex's reason seemed a bit too petty for Shizu to leave anyways.

Major Tom
10-02-2005, 07:03 PM
Ok, still don't get it, but it would seem this happened on IRC, so I wasn't there. But I agree with DK over Compl3x's reasons. Shizu seemed big enough not to get worked up over something like that.

Zirilan
10-02-2005, 08:43 PM
It must've been something pretty big/touche' to make him disgusted enough to remove any trace of himself from AA.

Lavi
10-02-2005, 08:48 PM
I could've sworn I remember Shizu saying how AA was one of the better forums out there. Damn liar.

Major Tom
10-02-2005, 08:53 PM
Ah, but whatever happened did not seem to have happened on the forum, so his opinion may still stand.

Edit: I was wondering where sohryu posts went, I was thinking we may have been treading on forbidden ground, but then I remembered she hasn't graduated yet :sweat:

Zirilan

You have a point, IRC isn't like the forums at all. A lot of things get said very quickly and without regulation, or at least not much of it.

If your post count went down maybe is because someone deleted a post of yours.

Also please get back on topic. If LS or anyone else that thinks I had anything to do with Shizu leaving, you have my AIM (Dtortot), you can also PM, email me or contact me at mIRC. I'll gladly explain what went on.
