That was a real shame. He seemed to be a good member, but after not submitting that one event, he left.

On a similar note, I think the worst thing isn't seeing a member leave by choice but by ban. It's sad to see a good and even loved user suddenly go "bad" and leaving. A lot of the reasons they're gone we're really odd with their usual personality, so that's always too bad to see.

You mean like Kaneki?

I wasn't directly referring to one person, as it's happened to several members.

No, Kaneki already had been accumulating warnings (of which multiple were already revoked time and time again). His occurrence wasn't a one-time overreaction. I don't understand why some members on the site still bring up his situation in a sympathetic light. If you are friends with him, I suggest you converse with him elsewhere.

By the way, I am fairly certain he is still using the forum right now under another account but I'm letting it fly under the radar.
I am talking to him somewhere else...I don't want him to feel depressed again.
I think a guy called SoulEater57 was one of those members who were good but then used profanity in his final post before he got banned.

The Bishop apparently lost his job and had to find another one right before when he stopped coming here. However, while we were sympathetic about his situation, he never did come back and he owes money from the entry fees collected at his tournament ... We hope this is not the case at all, but perhaps he is voluntarily not returning ...
I've done some thinking and realized that models of beyblades are so impressive and can be used in science. We could create many things based on the aerodynamical mechanism of beyblades and other things. So use your knowledge of bey combos etc. to come up with cool ideas.Have you guys thought of creating airplane turbines with rotors based on beyblade fusionwheels/attack rings/warrior wheel? beyblades could be power generators but we'd need a lot of them to power a whole city.
I think normal turbines are much more efficient considering they were made for that purpose.
I guess someone had too much of that Dr Ziggurat Aid haha.

not really, I mean, we could always experiment and have you seen how intricately the beyblades' fusionwheels are designed for it's special purposes? Airplane tturbines have similar aerodynamical needs.

I think everyone here knows who it is, but I guess it's just a "whatever" matter.

As for akio, the wbo Facebook account had a post about you and the podcast comeback Tongue_out
I tried replying to a message to someone, it allowed me to read it, but it wouldn't let me send it back. I waited a bit and it redirected me to a new page with a MyBB logo and had a message.

Does it work for anyone else, or is it just me.

You should always read the announcement threads in the News forum.
Thank god we're back, I didn't like the maintenance pause. I was bored.
I'd post in the Downtime thread, but it keeps going and telling me things in binary. How long will this last? I'm using an iPod touch 4g if that helps.
The only error I got was with the PM systemaside from that ...Nothing else happened,yay me Tongue_out

For some people who experienced that issue, it already resolved naturally. I have no idea how long it takes for each person though.
I don't know if it's the same for everybody, but the Beywiki is still not working...
Yes, that is what we discussed in the Scheduled downtime thread.
I think that there should be a guide on "How to be an advanced member"

The grammar is amazing. Punctuation=beautiful. We need stories like this on WBO.


Just kidding of course! Wow, sometimes I think people should think before they post. and learn their ABCs before hand...
Pretty sure the kid was nine, give him a break.

Actually, this is better than those funny fanfics that try to be serious and the author has suckish grammar.
Edit: Dual Sorry, it is funny to satirize someone who has bad grammar.
