    Hi, y’all! I found this website in the history of the used laptop I bought online! The person who sold it to me never cleared the cookies or history. I presume CarbonWolf is the username here of the person who sold it to me. I see he caused alot of trouble here. I am nothing like him, I promise. I’m hoping there’s not an IP block on this laptop. Nice gif image, btw. I wish I could make gif animations that good. Oh dear, I’m rambling again. I tend to do that alot. ^_^’

    • Luna the Lovely says:

      GAPAs, this post really isn’t intended to be antagonistic or anything, but I can kind of see where you potentially might not like it and wish to snip it. If so, that’s fine, I understand…. *choklit for the trouble*

      So, anyway, not to crash the party and be rude, but….Personally, I’m a tad-bit skeptical. Now, mind you, if you really did buy a laptop off CarbonWolf/AJAR and just happened here upon curiosity by browsing through ens history, my apologies, and welcome to the ‘blog.

      However:

      1. For starters, Carbon Wolf (or, at least, somebody using ens name and gravatar image) aka AJAR, who has been absent from the ‘blog since approximately last October, posted on another thread just a mere 30 minutes before you posted here.

      2. I rather doubt most people, upon buying a used laptop, would take the necessary hours to browse far enough back through the threads on this ‘blog to be able to state that “I see he caused alot of trouble here.” I mean, you would have had to browse through a lot of threads, several months back. Possible, yes. Likely? I doubt it.

      3. A lot of aforementioned havoc was wreaked under a name other than Carbon Wolf (that is, AJAR, in addition to about a million other alter egos). Considering how many people who have been on the ‘blog for a long time seem to have trouble figuring out people’s past identities via “Who’s Here”, I am bit skeptical that a newcomer to the ‘blog would pick up on this. Actually, upon looking at the “Who’s Here” page just now, Carboon Wolf isn’t even listed. Now, although I’m fairly certain that memory serves me correctly and that Carbon Wolf was, indeed, one of AJAR’s more recent names, a newcomer would have absolutely no knowledge of his past names. Admittedly, you did not claim knowledge of any other names, but like I mentioned previously: Most of ens havoc was wreaked under a name besides Carbon Wolf. So if a newcomer only knew the past ‘blogger as Carbon Wolf, I find it hard to believe that en would be able to track down enough posts to “see he caused alot of trouble here.”

      Now, maybe I’m just a distrustful person and you’re telling the truth. I hope so, despite the fact that that would mean I’m falsely accusing you of being a liar, etc. But personally, I rather feel that a bit of caution and distrust is necessary on the internet. After all, anybody can say anything online, with no real way to prove that they’re not telling the truth. If you believe everything anybody said on the internet, you’re asking for a lot of trouble. I mean, I could be some 80 year old creeper guy for all most of you know. I’m not, but none of you have anyway of knowing that I’m truly a 19 year old girl from Alaska who is madly obsessed with Harry Potter, Doctor Who, Torchwood, and John Barrowman. Okay, well, the last bit’s obviously true–that level of fangirl obsessiveness would be pretty hard to fake, but the rest? Not so much.

      But, really, if you are telling the truth–welcome to the ‘blog, you seem nice enough and I hope you stay awhile.

      If you’re really AJAR in disguise (afterall, this wouldn’t be the first time he pretended to be somebody else–wasn’t he just impersonating his “arch-enemy” morbid last fall?), please drop the act. If you’re AJAR and have reformed and are trying to get a new start on the ‘blog, great, but again, please drop the act.

        So… XANA… if you’re really AJAR, please, just reveal yourself now. If this is an alter ego, then this is just stupid, almost as stupid as your impersonating Morbid. If you’ve reformed or whatever, then that’s great, like Luna said. We won’t hold it against you. We’re nice that way.

      Basically it is a thread that is random. [way to go, Luna, define a word with itself :roll: ]

      That is to say, unlike some of the threads, it does not really have a specified topic. It’s where you can go and talk about basically anything under the sun that either doesn’t have its own thread, or you’re too lazy to find the thread it might be better suited for.

      Basically, its topicless, and “anything goes” (oh, hey, song! I was just listening to that on my iPod earlier….. ♥ John Barrowman singing anything). I mean, if you’re too random (for instance– “I like frogs!!!!!!!!!!!11!!!!!!!!!!!) you’ll be jumped upon by various individuals for disrupting the thread, but mostly, you can just post whatever….

          Haha, and that’s one of the worse pictures of him I’ve seen. Just wait until you finally watch Torchwood and Doctor Who. Well, Torchwood, mainly, there’s not enough of him in DW. Yeah, he’s actually performed in Anything Goes, in addition to it being a song he sings on one of his albums. He’s got an entire album (multiple, actually) with him singing showtunes. “Reflections from Broadway”, “Aspects of Lloyd Webber”, “Swings Cole Porter”.

          I’ve got like six CDs of JB music. And he actually performed on Broadway a couple times, too, although, yeah, most of his stuff is in the UK.

          And not only does he have an unbelievably gorgeous face, omg his legs. He has seriously amazing legs…..Um, wait, does that read as weird as it sounds when I type it? Probably. But it’s true.

      Don’t worry about asking stupid questions! We all did, and most of us still all do! (Myself included!)

      I’m going to elaborate on LBK’s answer: Ok, beyond the obvious reason, it’s basically a place for general (or random, hence the name…) discussion. If there’s anything you wish to state to the Musiverse that there isn’t a specific place for, the random thread is the place to put it. Discussion is always quick moving on it, and so there are usually multiple random threads each month and a new one at the start of each month, adorned with one of Lady B’s (Or Rebecca-the-GAPA, they are the same people. Lady B is a nickname.) graphics.

      I don’t know if anybody else thinks of it this way, but I usually think of it as the Thread HQ of MB. Sort of like the center of all the activity. (Although thinking back, I suppose that doesn’t really make any sense. But I usually don’t, and I guess that’s just the way I see it…)

      Anyhoo, enough ranting. I hope I answered your question!

Probably it was once it ceased being something I was supposed to do (and didn’t), I realized its awesomeness, and thus read ’em willingly……

      I still subscribe to it, although it’s getting increasingly longer and longer from the time I get a mag to when I read it. But not because I don’t like ’em, just because, well, school. Ever since starting college, I’ve not read near as much as I used to……I’d say no time, but that’s really not entirely true…..*sigh* I dunno.

        I don’t think you want to be related to her, but I guess it does, somehow.
        She says “HEY!” to that statement, but just ignore her. She says “HEY!” again. I’m to lazy to let her type in her name and email, so here she is:

        Tacky Glue says: I’m not going to comment on those remarks Keiffer made. Thanks for welcoming me!

        Okay, it’s Keiffer Lining again. Tacky Glue won’t be coming to the Kokon, though. She’ll probably forget MB exists (don’t be offended, short-term memory loss) in, like, a week, anyway.

      Welcome ‘phyte! I hope you know what you’ve gotten yourself into, dragonfly. :twisted: Read the Rules, and the HG2MB if you haven’t already, and use proper spelling, punctuation, grammar, capitalization, and all that stuff. Don’t listen to me, watch out for Enceladus and SudoRandom, beware the Spelluna, and always remember your towel, and you’ll be all right.

      its sort of hard 2 read posts tht r ritten lik this lik littlebasementkitten said so we appreci8t it if u plz plz use corect gramar punctuation and caps. thx!

      Beyond that, please read The Rules and HG2MB before you start posting. You’ll find lots of helpful information there. Also, if you’re confused about anything…that’s pretty normal, and it’s ok to ask about it. Enjoy!

I probably went overboard with the whole tlking lik this thing, and I apologize for that, but really? Not all that bad. It was a quick way to get the point across and as a ‘phyte I sure appreciated a little head’s up about that. But whatever. I’m probably just looking for an argument here, so I’ll stop.)

    I am not a neophyte.
    I have been around for a while, but I have taken to lurking more as time has passed. There are many things I have wanted to say, but I am afraid of being judged by those I know off the blog.
    So I have devised this mask, which I will use for the things indo not want to be judged about. My other self will continue to post when she is feeling like it, but she hasn’t much lately, so don’t plan to see any drastic drops in post counts. Also, please don’t try to figure out who I am. This is not an Alter Ego, but a shell I can hide in from the demands of society.
    Thank you for accepting this, everyone. Sometimes I just need to vent and not have people forming opinions about me. Chances are, it’s not you who is part of the issue. I don’t really care what MBers think of me, and usually not what people in the real world think either. There are just a few things that I’d rather not brodcast to those I know in person.
    I’m sorry if this didn’t make any sense.

      No, that makes perfect sense – especially if you know people in real life. I think it’s completely understandable, I’ve felt the same way although right now I don’t know anyone in real life who’s active on the site, but if I did, I probably would do the same thing.

      I guess it could become confusing, but I’m probably not going to be any more confuzzled than usual so I suppose that’s alright.

      Of course we still accept you! I mean, I would accept you even if you didn’t “devise the mask”…but like I said, I completely understand how you’re feeling.

      I suppose the last thing I want to emphasize that you said is to please remind people NOT to guess who you are. I know you already said that, but I think it’s worth repeating – she is not an Alter Ego. So please don’t even try. I don’t want that to become a problem for you or a nuisance for anybody else. If you have suspicions of who she is, great, but keep them to yourself.

      Other than that…I think that’s all. I’m not really sure what to say now, so I guess I’ll finish off with what Musers love to do best: :arrow:

      Awww. The way you phrased your post, combined with your name and gravatar, made me feel really sorry for you- In a weird, non-awkward way. I really understand where you’re coming from. I talk so much on here, about really deep things. My friends don’t think I’m deep, I’m just the crazy one that you never give choklit to. I would die if they saw some stuff on here.

        I agree. It does make me feel sort of bad, but I guess it’s not really anybody’s fault…of course we can’t restrict our friends from coming on here, but we also don’t always feel comfortable telling these things to do them. Naturally it’s a tough position to be in.

        The main problem for me would be that often if I need to vent, I try to find somebody who doesn’t go to my school. That way, a lot of drama and rumors hopefully are less likely to happen. That’s why I like to come on here, although I’m sure I drive the GAPA’s (Not to mention my fellow Musers) absolutely insane-er than usual with my rants. They must be so annoying.

        And there I go off again….
