Let's try this again - The Person Above You
 
I thought we might take an attempt at trying this again, and I want to see how successful it can be. In order to actually keep this topic open, YOU MUST MAKE YOUR REPLIES LONGER THAN ONE SENTENCE!!!!, and I'll repeat it again, YOU MUST MAKE YOUR REPLIES LONGER THAN ONE SENTENCE!!!!. Now, this just means that you need to have more than one thing to say about the person in order to reply.

So, hopefully we can keep this topic opened, and see how much we know about everyone else.

Take it away _____________.

Notes:
  • Xantar got my social security number wrong :D

Shooter. Once the manager of GTRAC, he retired from the position. He once made a going away thread about flaming gekko. But he didn't leave and came soon after. Recently he made a thread baout suicide and made his former girlfriend pretty mad.

Revival 02-28-2002 01:23 PM

Link1130 -- the chimpmunk pimp. Was wrong, as I was fired from mamanger at GTRAC ( rather ugly story :unsure: ). Was born on November 30th, 1987.

Xantar 02-28-2002 02:03 PM

Shooter -- I've already talked about him in another topic, but what the heck. I'll reintroduce him to all the newbies who don't know him and give them more information than they could possibly want. Just remember that I'm pulling all this out of memory, so I'll get some things wrong.

He's a freshman at Pinkerton Academy in Derry New Hampshire. His real name is Brian Rutzen. If I remember correctly, he has brown hair, wears glasses and has braces. His Social Security number is 020-54-1876, and you can reach him on AIM under the username ShooterAD (he also has an ICQ account, but he doesn't seem to have logged on there in over a year). He also used to go by the name "Firehose" at CubeSource.

His career at GameTavern started off with a position as manager of GameTRAC (in fact, he was sort of the founder). For a reason that I can't recall, he lost that position. Maybe it had something to do with what I'm going to talk about next.

He also joined the staff of NinGlobe, but apparently it was just to teach the webmaster a lesson. His first action was to use his FTP access to delete almost everything on that site. His intentions were good enough—he wanted to show cookiecaper (the webmaster of NinGlobe at the time) that he was far too trusting in giving FTP access to people. Deleting everything was a bit overboard, though, so Shooter lost his staff position.

He has basically spent the rest of his time here as a forum member although I wonder how he got his custom rank. In any case, he generally hangs out at all the forums I go to here at GameTavern (and even showed up at PVG), making occasionally insightful posts, more often just joking. He also reads my fanfics and is responsible for some of the smileys available here at GameTavern.

He also started the first "Person Above" topic but apparently didn't read it very closely and missed the three times that I warned people to put more substance into their posts in that topic under the threat of closing it.

He's sort of gekko's enemy. Actually, that's not really true. gekko probably doesn't consider Shooter important enough to actually hate. Their various clashes have led to Shooter "quitting" two separate times that I can remember, though. But Shooter came back, thus illustrating the old truism at these forums: "They always come back."

Oh yeah, and there's Andromida. It's not really fair to talk about Shooter without mentioning her a little bit. The two of them had been going out for a year to a year and half before recently breaking up. I know a little more about their relationship, but it's only through chat sessions with Shooter (i.e. it's private).

Shooter agrees with me on all kinds of stuff. For example, we both don't think Britney Spears is attractive or that Hershey's kisses are all that great, and we don't worship The Simpsons. Academically, Shooter had trouble seeing any value in learning things like history. That may have changed since the chat I had with him about such things was last year. Hopefully he has learned the value of algebra, though. In any case, he understands when I explain science stuff to him, so he's not dull.

And he's finally starting to call me "well-educated" instead of "smart" now. :)

Perfect Stu 02-28-2002 02:40 PM

Is the best damn moderator here at GameTavern (besides me of course ;) ). He seems very well educated for a 17 year old, although he may be 18. But I'm pretty sure he's 17. He has spent a damn long time editing people's posts here in the general forum, and deserves respect from everyone.

Yep, I'm still editing posts here. :D

And yes, I'm still 17.

Revival 02-28-2002 05:45 PM

Stu is the moderator of the PS2 board, and is respected around GameTavern for his non-biased opinions. He has been depressed for a few years now, but he'll get over it soon - -I know he will.

Stu is also one of my favorite members.

Drunk Hobbit 02-28-2002 05:50 PM

Shooter aka Wildfire, FireWreck, Ticco Driver, etc was a mod for NintendoForce where there was a falling out between him and gekko. Shooter then started a site known as GameCastle (or something like that). He came to GT where he was put in charge of GTRAC. That didn't work out either. Shooter later posted a topic called "Let's try this again - The Person Above You"...

BlueFire 02-28-2002 06:16 PM

Danchastu is a spriter, gamer, and all around mess up ;) He knows how to speak Japanese (or at least I have been told) and he is friends with Shooter. He likes Pokemon, Digimon, anime, and sonic. He is a well known Sprite Artist here in GT and CubeSource and he is an all around funny-guy.

D-Man 02-28-2002 06:16 PM

Was once known as Monkey, and was really funny back then. (not that he isn't now I hope :p). He started the idea about a gcn clan, the PMDC, but I don't know what happened to it since there isn't a forum at for it at agb anymore.

EDIT: Well that was about Danchastu.

For BlueFire:

I see he's become a mod here. I don't really know him that well cause he was just a newbie last time I left :p.

BlueFire 02-28-2002 06:31 PM

To D-Man: (I'm still a newbie. :p)

He loves Hockey. He lives in Canada and he knows how to speak French. He's involved in the PMDC greatly. He's left GT once or twice or just stayed silent. He's mainly in AGB. He may have a GameCube...or not..

magus113 02-28-2002 06:55 PM

is a humungous RPG freak. He's also the soon-to-be moderator of G-Trac. That sounds cool.

BlueFire 02-28-2002 07:00 PM

We've been best friends since Kindergarten. We have a lot of fights that are funny. The person above has cystic fibrosis, but it doesn't affect his life that much. Is a guy who has a hard time beating RPGs. :p I keep his games (like Chrono Cross) for many months. :p Is a member who signed up in April but never posts. :D

marionette 02-28-2002 07:09 PM

bluefire, his real name is geo. he likes to make comics, and piss DH off. he used to like to piss me off, but he doesnt anymore. lol. he's pretty cool to talk to after you get to know him. shooter says he's his best "online" friend. geo's very smart, and gets good grades from what i know of. his birthday is september 11, and...he lives in flordia. and i can't remember anything else right now

Revival 02-28-2002 08:40 PM

marionette, her real name is Terese ehh.. I won't put her last name. She has a brother, who which many of you know, NGC-RULER, who was known for his misspellings. Terese is a really cool person to talk to. She lives in West Virginia, she liked to play hockey and swim.

Ginkasa 02-28-2002 09:25 PM

He is cramming in this forum. So... stop it now.

He likes Dragons and he is a butthead.

Born on June 4th. Official Man Whore of GameTavern... Has 100 doubloons...apparently is a luminous night cloud...does not like others post cramming...wants me, you, and everyone else to tell him where he's located. The end. :D

BlueFire 03-01-2002 10:18 AM

Revival 03-01-2002 10:50 AM

BLueFire -- real name is Geovanni Alberto Rubio. Is going to be the manager of GameTRAC once Nate Braxton (N8) steps down. BLueFire is well-educated, he does good in science, and math gives him problems sometimes. He uses crappy AOL to access the internet because he parents like it (BOO!). His AIM screename is BLueFire087 ( so hard to guess.. well, sorta :unsure: ). Geo, as he is called by friends, is 14 and currently resides in Miami, Florida. You can see his house here:



BLueFire is a member of the National Junior Honor Society at his Middle School (I forget the name), but here is a picture of his Middle School:



That's about all I can remember now, not bad though -- I actually had a picture of his house.

Edit (3/1/02): Added BLueFire's middle name.
Edit (3/1/02): Added BLueFire's school aerial photo.

BlueFire 03-01-2002 11:03 AM

Shooter- His name is Brian Rutzen(Age 15). He lives in Derry, New Hampshire. He goes to Pinkerton Academy (his highschool). He used to be the manager of GTRAC, until he was staff privileges were taken away. He's had a long relationship with a girl named Kristen (Andromida) but they recently broke up. His best friend is a girl named Elin. He used to be head administrator of Ninglobe until Ninglobe crashed and burned. Before he was an admin at ninglobe, he deleted everything on the site, which got his staff privileges taken away.
He now works in GCXL, but still comes to GT for the forums. Gekko used to be an enemy of shooter. One of his old friends is IronFoot. Another is Danchastu.

A picture of Shooter's home:



Like me, Shooter has some problems in Math (Sometimes). He was in the National Junior Honor Society when he was in Middle school. He is in his freshmen year in highschool. He goes to a giant highschool named Pinkerton Academy. He wears glasses....he has a GameCube. He is still looking for SSB: Melee and he completed Pikmin. His AIM name is ShooterAD. He has a huge list of hilarious sounds, and I have a sound of him screaming something offensive ;) And...that's all I can remember now.

Xantar 03-01-2002 12:05 PM

Geovanni Rubio is a fairly well educated Hispanic, Catholic chap who lives in Florida. Unlike Shooter, I don't know his Social Security number. :p

He has a microphone attached to this computer and will often use it if you chat with him on AIM. His voice is a little high and slightly nasal sounding to me, but then again, I have bad speakers. Besides, I tend to compare everybody's voice to my own fairly deep one.

For some reason, he keeps this sound byte that Shooter sent him of some guy cursing repeatedly. :unsure:

BlueFire is also the longest serving news editor here at GameTavern (except perhaps Darren McLeod, but I don't think Darren's original job was to post news). Unfortunately, some glitch made it impossible for BlueFire to login and post although most other staff members could do it fine. I'm not exactly sure what happened, actually, but PureEvil had to step in and revamp the site.

In the meantime, BlueFire got himself a moderator job (which really pissed off Ridley, by the way) looking over the GBA forum. I don't know when he moved from the GBA forum to his current position, but it happened somehow, and now he's going to replace N8 as GTRAC manager.

All this on top of his regular news editing job. Yes indeed, people, Geo is back in action posting news on the main site. And through it all, he apparently manages to keep up in schoolwork.

BlueFire also used to write fanfics. He had a very good Chrono Trigger fanfic going, but he stopped it for some reason. Probably had time troubles. Then he started another fanfic (even though it was really just a fic) called Kyo's Chronicles. That turned out rather unfortunately (BreakABone and I both jumped in with critiques as long as this post), and BlueFire quietly killed it. He believes he's not cut out to be a writer. My personal opinion is that he's just young.

And now, thanks to him, I know where Shooter lives. :D

To whoever posts next: you can include my full name if you want. If you don't know what it is, just click on the link to the Metroid fanfic in my signature and look at the prologue. You can also read the entire fanfic while you're at it. :deal:

Ginkasa 03-01-2002 12:17 PM

He is a moderator for the General Forum but shall soon retire. Until then he is trying to stop people from posting only one sentence posts in both this and the Neverending Story threads. He likes to post long posts. Writes fanfics.

Guh? Glad someone told me because I never knew I was really pissed off by his getting the GBA mod job :confused:. Edit: so you're telling me you don't remember that topic you made about how the moderator positions only go to "previous mods?" Well I remember that thread but I only inquired about thatmariolover and the Sports mod position, not him. Plus I thought that one aspect of becoming a mod is that they had some experience, knowledgable, etc. about the theme/subject of the forum they moderate. But I know now that there is more to it than that. I also don't ever remember saying they went to or should be given to previous mods...... not to mention, I don't think it was me that started the topic :errr:.

As for this thread's purpose:

Link's real name is Robert McCutchan I think :unsure:. Won a lot of Immunity and Reward Challenges in Survivor III. Paid me 300 dblns for my spot in the Weakest Link, but I gave him them back just recently. Seems to *cough* and end sentences like this...... a lot :D. And that's about all I can think of for him right now. Oh wait he doesn't watch The Simpsons.

Joeiss 03-01-2002 01:08 PM

Ridley was part of the Rebellion Tribe in Survivor 3 : Hoth. He stayed up a LONG time for KOTN... I haven't told anybody this before, but I voted for Ridley to lose Survivor... Don't ask why.

Ridley is a cool guy. He is a fellow Canadian, to be more specific, a Nova Scotian, who loves the nWo (rock on!). He is active in the Sports forum... and is a great contributor to the site.

I have to shout into my microphone in order for you to hear me! :p

The person above (Joeiss) was a GT news editor, but he gave it up. He's funny and he is not homophobic against gays or black people. He's had friends who had committed suicide and he is a fan of wrestling.

Ridley 03-01-2002 01:21 PM

So you were the one who voted for me to lose. Oh well as long as there was a good reason, not just "Ridley smells....smells like urine. Go Jason1!" then it's fine by me. And for a second I thought I might have to "Go Nova Scotian" on your arse for calling me a Newfie. Tunderin Jesus Joeiss :D.

BLueFire :

He's taking over the job of GameTRAC manager when N8 steps down. Always tries to get me to join these chats with some crazy people he must know. Has been called "Saffire" by Shadow Fox and is part of his clan. Seems like a nice person, don't really know him to be sure. Yup :burger:

Revival 03-01-2002 01:35 PM

Ridley - won Survivor. Is a fan or wrestling, is a good poster around here, I see him quite often, and he has good insightful posts. Ridley has a pretty cool avatar, but since I'm not a fan of wrestling in the least bit, I don't know who it is -- don't call me stupid for not knowing. :unsure:

Joeiss 03-01-2002 07:55 PM

Shooter... Posts like a mutha f*cka. On Tuesday February 26, 2002 Shooter made a total of 202 posts in that day alone. Shooter recently broke up with his girlfriend, Andromida. Shooter attends Pinkerton Academy, which I just learned is a high school, not a psychriactict hospital. Also, Shooter doesn't watch wrestling, and doesn't even know what Hulk Hogan looks like. Tsk tsk.

Also, Shooter makes $14.00 and hour for doing time keeping for sports events and doing other sport related activities. Shooter works around 14 hours a week, so his monthly income is around $196. He is also saving this money to buy a car... A Corrola.

D-Man 03-01-2002 07:59 PM

- Just got 3000 posts
- Tries to speak French :p
- I can see that his name is Joe.. :rolleyes:
- something else

BreakABone 03-01-2002 08:07 PM

Hmm well this is my ICQ friend D-Man. Meet him at NDolphin where he was a much more active poster. Has just returned to GT after I gave him the URL. I forget if he has a GC or not. Always get him confuzed with someone else on my BuddyList. Knows he is Canadian and believes he plays for a hockey team or tha is the other person.

No longer uses AIM much due to well not liking it I guess. Always "busy" on ICQ or so he claims

Don't care to post after someone posted about me..So here.. Joeiss I work for GT.. it ain't that hard to find my real name.. or beter yet how much I hate my real name being posted.. Ask Shooter..

As for the XBA thing, I reallly don't know

Joeiss 03-01-2002 08:16 PM

BreakABone : I talk to him on AIM and ICQ. He is a very good poster (i have him on my walls! HAHA :sneaky: ). He is a writer for GameTavern's news page. He attends these forums, as well as PVG and Xbox Addict, even though he doesn't own an Xbox. :hmm:

BAB hates it when people on ICQ are in N/A mode or AWAY mode... And never seems to get why were are in those modes... j/k.

BAB had a stint of posting jokes here in the General Board, but left because of popular demand.
