Wiispace Member Interview #7: Banhammer Edition

Posted 01-06-2009 at 07:19 AM by cornyjohn
Welcome back to Wiispace Member Interviews! I return after a nice Christmas/New Year's break to give you this treat of a guest: midnight1starwars!

---------------------------------------------------

[COLOR="Blue"][B]CJ:[/B] You've been a member here for over two years (I have no idea how long you've been moderator). What would you say you liked best about Wiispace that made you stay that long?[/COLOR]

[B]M1S:[/B]Well when i first came here it was the free wii contest. which i ended up winning. Then i made so many friends on the site i decided to stay.

[COLOR="Blue"][B]CJ:[/B] Now for a sort of sore subject as of late. What is your position on the recent prohibition of religion on Wiispace?[/COLOR]

[B]M1S:[/B]Honestly i really did not mind the religion debates that much. The only problem is the threads always got way out of hand in a hurry.

[COLOR="Blue"][B]CJ:[/B] If you had to pick one game from any console to define your "career" as a gamer, what would that be and why?[/COLOR]

[B]M1S:[/B]I would say the first game that really hooked me into gaming was the original legend of zelda on the nes.

[COLOR="Blue"][B]CJ:[/B] If you had to pick one current generation console (Wii, PS3, or 360) to keep, and throw the rest away, which would that be and why?[/COLOR]

[B]M1S:[/B]Man tough question. But if i had to pick I would Say i would keep my 360. Mainly because of the xbox live part of it.

[COLOR="Blue"][B]CJ:[/B] How would you describe your personality when you're not being "THE ORIGINAL JEDI MASTER" on Wiispace? We already know you have the fastest banhammer in the east. :p[/COLOR]

[B]M1S:[/B]I am pretty easy going for the most part. I try to be funny from time to time.

[COLOR="Blue"][B]CJ:[/B] Do you have any other hobbies besides gaming you'd like to mention?[/COLOR]

[B]M1S:[/B]Well i don't know if you would call it a hobby but i like to watch and collect movies.

[COLOR="Blue"][B]CJ:[/B] Well, thanks for taking the time to allow us to get to know you better.[/COLOR]

[B]M1S:[/B]No problem. If any one every has any questions shoot me a pm. I don't bite really. Thanks for having me on cornyjohn.

Wiispace Member Interview #6: SuperHero

Posted 12-20-2008 at 11:40 PM by cornyjohn

Welcome to Wiispace Member Interview #6. Today's guest--our top blogger, SuperHero.

--------------------------------------------------

[COLOR=Blue][B]CJ:[/B] What brought you to Wiispace (besides your brother being here, of course :p)?[/COLOR]

[COLOR=Black][B]SH:[/B][/COLOR][COLOR=Black]Well, to tell you the truth, for months I threatened to join and tell everyone here all his most embarresing stories. Finally, he asked me to help him make an RPG for this site and I joined to help.[/COLOR]

[COLOR=Blue][B]CJ:[/B] As of the present, you're Wiispace's top blogger. What do you find most enjoyable about blogging, and why?[/COLOR]

[COLOR=Black][B]SH:[/B] Well, mostly, I love to write and I wanted to share some of my writing. That being my Machop and Toad story. Plus, I've made some friends through blogging, so that's cool. [/COLOR]

[COLOR=Blue][B]CJ: [/B]If you were not a member of Wiispace, what do you imagine yourself doing when you're browsing the internet?[/COLOR]
[COLOR=Black]
[B]SH:[/B][/COLOR] [COLOR=Black]Oh, I know what I'd be doing. I'm a member pf BZPower forums, (I've slacked off there since I joined here) so I'd either be there, or I'd be writing. Wiispace gets in the way of that a lot.[/COLOR]

[COLOR=Blue][B]CJ: [/B]Do you have any special plans for Christmas next week?[/COLOR]

[COLOR=Black][B]SH:[/B][/COLOR][COLOR=Black]I'm going to drive three hours to my aunts house for Christmas Eve, then go to my dad's side of the familys that night, then spend Christmas with them. Then I go back to my aunts for my dads and my great-grandma's birthdays. It gets craaaazy...[/COLOR]

[COLOR=Blue][B]CJ:[/B] If you had to pick a favorite family holiday tradition, what would it be?[/COLOR]

[COLOR=Black][B]SH:[/B] Oh, I guess listening to Christmas music as we decorate the tree. It's become a tradition I'm quite found of. [/COLOR]

[COLOR=Blue][B]CJ:[/B] You began work on a forum RPG a few months back, but currently most support for that has been dropped. Do you have any plans for picking that back up, and can you give us a teaser or something similar?[/COLOR]

[COLOR=Black][B]SH:[/B][/COLOR][COLOR=Black]You know, it didn't get mod support, and that made it hard (thanks a lot! :p). I've recently released the story for it in my blog (check it out), but that's about all. It's been put into sleep mode until more support can be garnered. [/COLOR]
[COLOR=Blue]
[B]CJ:[/B] Thanks for taking the time to allow us to get to know you better.[/COLOR]
[B]
[COLOR=Black]SH:[/COLOR][/B][COLOR=Black]You know me, I love to talk, so this was more fun for me then anything else. Thanks for honoring me with your time.[/COLOR]

Wiispace Member Interview #5: New moderator coverage!

Posted 12-17-2008 at 05:02 PM by cornyjohn
Welcome to the 5th edition of Wiispace Member Interviews. As all of you know, justgroovy was kind enough to make a new subforum for us after it was suggested in a previus edition of WMI. And, as you can surmise, a new subforum means a new moderator.

In honor of our newest mod, today's guest is carmall!

[COLOR=blue][COLOR=black]-----------------------------------------------[/COLOR][/COLOR]
[B][COLOR=blue]
CJ: [/COLOR][/B][COLOR=blue]Wow, you're fairly new to Wiispace. How did you manage to become a moderator so quickly?[/COLOR]

[COLOR=blue][COLOR=black][B]CM:[/B] To be honest I have no idea! lol. I joined back in September and have been fond of the site ever since. I guess i've just made a good impression, I'm open to suggestions, I'm interested in what people have to say and I think I do my best to get along well with everything, which is important - especially in a family like this one.[/COLOR]

[COLOR=Blue][B]CJ: [/B]Do you plan on being very active in the brand-new Wiispace Gallery subforum? If so, what types of artwork are you going to be posting?[/COLOR]

[COLOR=black][B]CM: [/B]Oh definitely!! I do a range of artwork. I prefer doing hand drawn as I find it a little easier to get my ideas down on paper. I've never had lessons so i've basically taught myself (hopefully this is a good thing! :-P). I've just started doing computer art - so bare with me!! I do a lot of writing too, so maybe i'll post some of them... oh and I've already posted some of my art work![/COLOR]

[COLOR=Blue][B]CJ:[/B] Have you tried using any of the VIP features yet? Which do you find most useful and why?[/COLOR]

[COLOR=black][B]CM:[/B] No it's sooo over whelming!!! I just logged on like 5 seconds ago and my eyeballs nearly exploded. lol. Not really, but it's going to take a few tender steps before I know what i'm doing! I'm very excited about seeing the new features and getting to know all the mods better too.[/COLOR]

[COLOR=Blue][B]CJ: [/B]Do you have any hobbies you partake in when you're not on Wiispace?[/COLOR]

[COLOR=black][B]CM:[/B] Well i'm always hanging out[/COLOR][COLOR=black] with my finace Will (Wagz89), we were engaged in May for those who didn't hear the news! I enjoy catching up with my friends when we can all find the time or kicking back with a few (!) drinks ;-). I work during the week at EB Games and attend uni in the afternoons where i'm studying 3D animation. I spend a lot most of my time going out, going to the pool, and of course playing video games. As for hobbies; I obviously have a creative streak but besides that I also enjoy ice-skating (even falling over!), movies, photography and just living life![/COLOR]

[COLOR=Blue][B]CJ:[/B] Just to get to know you a little better, how would you describe yourself in real life?[/COLOR]

[COLOR=black][B]CM: [/B]Kick-Ass! (Can i say that??) Haha. Well i'm quite a girly-girl, feminine i believe the word is. I'm pretty laid-back, i'm pretty mature for my age, although this being said like to have fun!! I can be quite cheeky in a good way - cute, so i've been told. I'm quite a romantic and i'm quite affectionate, and I believe i'm a rather caring and warm person when it somes to others but i can be a little tough if you annoy me - so don't do it! lol. People are always telling me i'm a ditz or a blonde, but of course that's not true.... ... i swear! :D[/COLOR]

[B][COLOR=black]CJ: [/COLOR][/B][COLOR=Blue]Any other comments (or warnings to would-be spammers :p) you'd like to give?[/COLOR]

[COLOR=black][B]CM: [/B]Don't do it....? Um I do just want to say a big thankyou to those who have helped me out during my time hear so far: midnight1starwars you are a champ!! You've done so much for me and i really appreciate it. Thanks also to Bluewarwolf for all his help and justgroovy as well. Thanks to all for mods for accepting me, everyone who's given me good rep over the months, Will (Wagz89) for showing me this site and being the best fiance ever, and i'd also like to shout out to all my friends on Wiispace and those i'm yet to know better, thank you everyone!! xoxoxo[/COLOR][/COLOR]

[COLOR=Blue][B]CJ: [/B][/COLOR][COLOR=Blue]I appreciate you taking the time to answer these questions, and good luck moderating![/COLOR]

[COLOR=black][B]CM: [/B]Thanks a lot for having me cornyjohn, it's been a pleasure. I think this is a really great thing you've got going here![/COLOR]

Wiispace Member Interview #4--^_^

Posted 12-11-2008 at 08:30 PM by cornyjohn
'Erro, and welcome to the 4th edition of Wiispace Member Interviews. This time, we'll be speaking to poet and Wiispace Scribe, ^_^.

-----------------------------------------

[COLOR=Blue] [B]CJ:[/B] When did you join Wiispace, and what, in your opinion, makes it so awesome?
[/COLOR][B]
^_^: [/B]I joined Wiispace on 25 May of this year. There's a lot of things I like about Wiispace, mostly revolving around the casual atmosphere it seems to have. But I think the best thing is the community. The lot of us here are a friendly bunch, and it wouldn't take long for a new member to get to know most of the active members. It's like a nice neighborhood.
[B] [COLOR=Blue]
CJ: [/COLOR][/B][COLOR=Blue]justgroovy recently moved some subforums around. How do you feel about the new setup, and are there further changes you feel should be made?[/COLOR]

[B]^_^: [/B]I'm indifferent to the new setup. I feel that the Signature forum should be for all arts, with signature shops included, but otherwise I like how the site is set up.
[COLOR=Blue]
[B]CJ:[/B] How do you feel about being a Wiispace Scribe? Is it worth the effort to get VIP benefits?[/COLOR]

[B]^_^: [/B]I love the position, and I love the perks. The only thing I've been having trouble with is finding or thinking of material to write about rather than just copying/pasting an article I find interesting (I strongly disapprove of any form of plagiarism) or getting the info from another gaming news site. But I have something big in mind for the front page; expect it within the week ;)

[COLOR=Blue][B]CJ: [/B]What is your favorite game, and why?[/COLOR]

[B]^_^: [/B]Super Smash Bros Melee. It seems incredibly simple to most, but it really has a ton of depth. Different physics for each character, strategies on certain stages, finding the advanced techniques...Brawl's good, yeah, but it doesn't measure up to Melee in my mind.

[COLOR=Blue][B]CJ: [/B]Aside from Wiispace, do you have any other hobbies?[/COLOR]

[B]^_^: [/B]I write all the time, that's my biggest hobby. Aside from that, target shooting, sailing, bowling, and playing guitar are my greatest pastimes.

[COLOR=Blue][B]CJ:[/B] Describe your personality in three words or less, and give a reason why you chose that description.[/COLOR]

[B]^_^: [/B]Creative, carefree, indescribable.
Creative...Pretty obvious to me. I'm just think about everything creatively...
Carefree...I've been told that I'm an extremely laid-back person, and I can't help but agree 95% of the time. Problems don't present themselves as big threats to me unless they're actually endangering my life or the lives of those close to me. Big is to universe as carefree is to ^_^, I suppose.
Indescribable...It's really difficult to describe someone in three words. You'd have to meet me to make your judgment.
[COLOR=Blue]
[B]CJ: [/B]Well, I appreciate you taking the time for this interview. Thank you for speaking with us. :p[/COLOR]

[B]^_^: [/B]Any time, mate. Mahalo.

Posted 12-09-2008 at 09:52 PM by cornyjohn
Welcome to the third installment of Wiispace Member Interviews. Today, we're graced with the company of a very prominent member and moderator--Agravain3!

[COLOR=Navy][B]CJ: [/B]You were a member of Wiispace [I]long[/I] before I ever even heard of this site. What made you decide to stay long enough to get over 7,000 posts here?[/COLOR]

[B]AG:[/B] well if i remeber correctly i came here for information on games, i dont remember wich ones but i know that i wanted info on some of them before i bought another bad one like red steel or sonic & the secret rings. i stayed because in a matter of a few months i was on the top posters list and wanted to be #1 :p.....back then it only took 1000 and some odd # of post to get on the list lol.

[COLOR=Navy][B]CJ: [/B]You recently obtained a moderator position a few months ago. Are there any perks or benefits that you enjoy? Any setbacks?[/COLOR]

[B]AG:[/B]i really enjoy the chat box, and above all els the pill and power. i mean its cool being a mod ebcause i know how envious i was of mods when i was a member myself. not to mention i got close to members like fletch since i was promoted....but in all honesty i enjoy the pill and green name.
[COLOR=Navy]
[B]CJ: [/B]Do you have any big plans for the holidays (sorry, I'm being politically correct :p) this year?[/COLOR]

[B]AG:[/B]i have to write 2 papers, one is 10-15 pages long and the other is 3-5 pages long, i also have to do a musical documentry on a band of my choice, i picked alabama.

[COLOR=Navy][B]CJ:[/B] Anything big or exciting on your wishlist?[/COLOR]

[B]AG: [/B]call of duty world at war is the main thing, theres not much i really waned this year....oh and my sister is getting a 360 so you can expect me on live soon :D

[COLOR=Navy][B]CJ: [/B]Let's talk personality for a moment. How would you describe yourself outside of Wiispace?[/COLOR]

[B]AG:[/B]outside of the internet im a quiet person, i tend to keep to myself. however like wiispace if i hear soemone talking polotics its hard for me not to but-in. but ive been described by my teacher as a "redneck in the city" and i think that' some-what true. you eighter love me and think im funny or you hate me and think im an arrogant Arse Hole!

[COLOR=Navy][B]CJ: [/B]Anything else you'd like to tell Wiispace?[/COLOR]



[B]AG:[/B]umm.....i love you guys. :D
[COLOR=Navy]
[B]CJ: [/B]Thanks for your time. [/COLOR]
