It's.... quiet

Looks like HQ has come to a complete deadlock regarding posts. There have been a few recent posts, yes... but the response from members hasn't been too great. Perhaps this indicates a loss in members? Some people seem to have disappeared, or haven't posted recently. And as a result, HQ has slowly came to a halt.

I'm not sure what can be done about it. Maybe advertising on other forums? If anyone here visits All is Brawl on occasion, then maybe mentioning here (along with a link to the forums) wouldn't be a bad idea. I'm sure that you all visit other forums.

It's just a sad sight seeing this place die out slowly. I've seen a few forums die out completely, but the members have found somewhere else to stay. Hopefully that won't be the case here if we can attract more members and think of something to discuss. I've tried posting artwork and blog posts, but they don't seem to attract too much attention. Even the PoF thread has been quiet lately. Remember before Christmas when we had so many posts each day? Not one post has been made today. Well, bar this one.

So... does anyone have any ideas that can bring some activity back to the site? There has to be something.

Personality Test

http://similarminds.com/jung.html

Give it a go, it's really interesting. It also allows you to get to know your 'real' self.

Once you have completed the test you will be given four letters, each letter indicating a certain aspect of your personality. The end of the test gives a quick briefing of your results, but if you type your four letters into Google search then the first link on the page will contain a more detailed description of your personality.

Copy and paste your results here!

I'm apparently ISTJ -

ISTJ - "Trustee". Decisiveness in practical affairs. Guardian of time- honored institutions. Dependable. 11.6% of total population.

"The Duty Fulfiller"

As an ISTJ, your primary mode of living is focused internally, where you take things in via your five senses in a literal, concrete fashion. Your secondary mode is external, where you deal with things rationally and logically.

ISTJs are quiet and reserved individuals who are interested in security and peaceful living. They have a strongly-felt internal sense of duty, which lends them a serious air and the motivation to follow through on tasks. Organized and methodical in their approach, they can generally succeed at any task which they undertake.

ISTJs are very loyal, faithful, and dependable. They place great importance on honesty and integrity. They are "good citizens" who can be depended on to do the right thing for their families and communities. While they generally take things very seriously, they also usually have an offbeat sense of humor and can be a lot of fun - especially at family or work-related gatherings.

ISTJs tend to believe in laws and traditions, and expect the same from others. They're not comfortable with breaking laws or going against the rules. If they are able to see a good reason for stepping outside of the established mode of doing things, the ISTJ will support that effort. However, ISTJs more often tend to believe that things should be done according to procedures and plans. If an ISTJ has not developed their Intuitive side sufficiently, they may become overly obsessed with structure, and insist on doing everything "by the book".

The ISTJ is extremely dependable on following through with things which he or she has promised. For this reason, they sometimes get more and more work piled on them. Because the ISTJ has such a strong sense of duty, they may have a difficult time saying "no" when they are given more work than they can reasonably handle. For this reason, the ISTJ often works long hours, and may be unwittingly taken advantage of.

The ISTJ will work for long periods of time and put tremendous amounts of energy into doing any task which they see as important to fulfilling a goal. However, they will resist putting energy into things which don't make sense to them, or for which they can't see a practical application. They prefer to work alone, but work well in teams when the situation demands it. They like to be accountable for their actions, and enjoy being in positions of authority. The ISTJ has little use for theory or abstract thinking, unless the practical application is clear.

ISTJs have tremendous respect for facts. They hold a tremendous store of facts within themselves, which they have gathered through their Sensing preference. They may have difficulty understanding a theory or idea which is different from their own perspective. However, if they are shown the importance or relevance of the idea to someone who they respect or care about, the idea becomes a fact, which the ISTJ will internalize and support. Once the ISTJ supports a cause or idea, he or she will stop at no lengths to ensure that they are doing their duty of giving support where support is needed.

The ISTJ is not naturally in tune with their own feelings and the feelings of others. They may have difficulty picking up on emotional needs immediately, as they are presented. Being perfectionists themselves, they have a tendency to take other people's efforts for granted, like they take their own efforts for granted. They need to remember to pat people on the back once in a while.

ISTJs are likely to be uncomfortable expressing affection and emotion to others. However, their strong sense of duty and the ability to see what needs to be done in any situation usually allows them to overcome their natural reservations, and they are usually quite supporting and caring individuals with the people that they love. Once the ISTJ realizes the emotional needs of those who are close to them, they put forth effort to meet those needs.

The ISTJ is extremely faithful and loyal. Traditional and family-minded, they will put forth great amounts of effort at making their homes and families running smoothly. They are responsible parents, taking their parenting roles seriously. They are usually good and generous providers to their families. They care deeply about those close to them, although they usually are not comfortable with expressing their love. The ISTJ is likely to express their affection through actions, rather than through words.

ISTJs have an excellent ability to take any task and define it, organize it, plan it, and implement it through to completion. They are very hard workers, who do not allow obstacles to get in the way of performing their duties. They do not usually give themselves enough credit for their achievements, seeing their accomplishments simply as the natural fulfillment of their obligations.

ISTJs usually have a great sense of space and function, and artistic appreciation. Their homes are likely to be tastefully furnished and immaculately maintained. They are acutely aware of their senses, and want to be in surroundings which fit their need for structure, order, and beauty.

Under stress, ISTJs may fall into "catastrophe mode", where they see nothing but all of the possibilities of what could go wrong. They will berate themselves for things which they should have done differently, or duties which they failed to perform. They will lose their ability to see things calmly and reasonably, and will depress themselves with their visions of doom.

In general, the ISTJ has a tremendous amount of potential. Capable, logical, reasonable, and effective individuals with a deeply driven desire to promote security and peaceful living, the ISTJ has what it takes to be highly effective at achieving their chosen goals - whatever they may be.

Some of this is incredibly accurate. I urge you guys to give it a go, it's really fun.

Alright...

I've made up my mind on what I'm going to do...

So recently there has been some drama, as you have all probably noticed, and I was right in the centre of it. I'm not going to go into much detail but let's just say that there were many misunderstandings that resulted in a drastic change in my attitude towards the admins.
I still haven't came to a final conclusion on what's happened, but the matter isn't going to prevent me from returning here and posting regularly. And obviously, I'll be watching the steady progress of PoF.

For a short absence, it's been a long and interesting journey. And I can finally say that I've been banned from a forum (which apparently only lasted for about half an hour).

It's good to be back and on good terms with everyone. I'm sorry for what happened and I can assure you that it will not happen again.

Farewell

So it seems like my views (as well as a few others') have not been accepted well and have caused chaos. And on this incident, I am leaving. I will not be back, not tomorrow, next week/month/year. Never.

I request that Iffy gives my moderating position to Falcory. No one else. I expect you to respect my decision by following through with it. Falcory will make a responsible and wise moderator. I'm just shocked and appalled at how he has been treated in the past due to misunderstandings.

Farewell, Star Fox HQ. It looks like I will not be back this time.

(Jack, please contact me over Skype if you would like me to continue providing voices for PoF.)

I always had my suspicions about this movie.
