  1. I tend to play the other towns once or twice but always seem to head back to Bridgeport because of the vampires. Actually, the last time I played I had downloaded a world from the exchange, I think it was, that combined all the different parts of the expansion packs (high rise buildings/clubs, pet parks and training grounds, etc) into one world. I really enjoyed playing that world and that was about the only other world I would play other than Bridgeport. Though the city that came with Showtime does look interesting (haven't really taken the time to start a family/transfer my current family in there yet).
  2. I have all of the expansions (pre-ordered Paranormal and Seasons). I haven't been able to play as much as I have wanted to recently thanks to classes but I'll probably play it later on today since I do have a little free time. When I play I tend to play on the longest lifespan except for the younger ages. I really hate that they waited to release seasons since really that was my favorite expansion on Sims 2. I've been playing since Sims 1 and bought all the expansion packs for Sims 1, 2 and now for 3. I also enjoyed Castaway Stories. Still play it from time to time but then miss all the customization Sims 3 offers. I have the Sims Medieval as well but only play it from time to time because like Emotional Outlet said it gets repetitive.
  3. Been playing Sims 3 as well and a little bit of Mass Effect 3. Really looking forward to the new expansion packs on Sims 3, especially Seasons.
  4. I'm able to scan my iPod video with Malwarebytes, but like I said, have no clue with iPads. I probably can because the iPod is set up to work with Windows. I stopped using Apple stuff (except iTunes, Quicktime and my iPod) a couple years ago and haven't kept up with how everything works with each other. Sorry I couldn't be of more help.
  5. I recommend this too. Had a virus on my machine that Norton's completely ignored but Malwarebytes cleaned it off no issue. Malwarebytes only lets you scan for free I think. (Can't remember it's been a bit.) As for the iPad, I can't help you there, sorry. Not sure if maybe you could hook up the iPad to a computer and scan it with Malwarebytes (like an external hard drive or iPod) or not.
  6. I don't think I have ever seen music made using that iPhone app until now. Thanks for the vid and also the Victoria Justice vid.
  7. This is my thought process completely. As for Lil Wayne, he is a rapper (was typing this when coffeeNiK posted), not a fan, tend to change the station when his songs come on. Like most of you I will give a song a chance no matter the genre and if I don't like it I'll avoid it but I'm not about to say my music tastes are better. Everyone's tastes are different. Rap is probably one of those genres I would say isn't my "cup of tea". I hardly listen to it but I don't go around saying I hate it because there are a few rap songs I enjoy.
  8. I Never knew the puplishers refused to make it without a rival character! learn something new everyday! I didn't know Sasuke wasn't originally planned either. I'm not a huge fan of Sasuke. I tried to give him a chance at the beginning thinking he would change so he wasn't such a jerk but once he went with Orochimaru/went to Orochimaru (can't quite remember how it went) I just didn't even try to like him anymore. My favorite characters are Naruto, Jiraiya and Kakashi.
  9. I actually avoided Naruto for the longest time for whatever reason I can't remember. Then on a whim I downloaded the first episode a couple months ago and got into it. I can't place my finger on any one reason why I like the show. One of the major reasons I can think of off the top of my head is the growth in Naruto and really all the younger characters. I keep watching to see how much more Naruto grows and matures (plus to see if he becomes hokage). I like shows where the little person/outcast/etc ends up proving himself worthy of people's time. Does that make sense? For example with Gaara, yes he was terrible in the beginning but thanks to his battle with Naruto he was able to grow from hating the world because of what was done to him into the character he is now. I hope that makes sense.
  10. For me this is a pretty good comparison. It's not that I necessarily hate Orihime but I really don't like her. Someone posted she's meant to be the ditzy/bimbo character of the series but it sometimes feels like too much. She does have her moments where I start to like her but then the next episode I am skipping her parts unless it's important. I am curious now after reading KiraIsGod's post to see what the big surprise is.
  11. Thanks, I admit I was a bit curious if/when I download here if I should post thanks or something else. So thank you for pointing out the like this button. Will definitely use that instead of posting thank you when/if I download anything.
  12. Emotional Outlet and dudefromLT are your desktop wallpapers from an anime/manga/etc? Look interesting so just curious. Here is my desktop (ignore the multiple stickies and icons lol). This is what my wallpaper is right now but it usually changes every half hour using photos from Webshots, deviantart, etc.
  13. Love this post as well. I don't get offended by it but sometimes I just don't really see the point in it. Like many have said it sometimes kills the mood of the series/scece/etc. Will I stop watching a series because of it? No. If I did stop watching a series, like has already been said, I would have to stop watching regular TV as well. Most of the time I just ignore it.
  14. The last anime I completed was Twelve Kingdoms. http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/encyclopedia/anime.php?id=840 I'm not very good at ratings but I would probably give it a 7/10 or 8/10. It's 45 episodes and while there were some parts that dragged, I wish there was more once I got to the end. Really the stronger points for me were the music, characters and the story. Before that was Black Butler http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/encyclopedia/anime.php?id=10160. The first season I would give it about the same rating as Twelve Kingdoms if not more so 8/10 9/10. I love the music of the series from the openings and closings to the music playing in the background through the series. There are two seasons of it that I know of. Enjoyed the first seaon more than the second (not a huge fan of the second season so it would probably have a lower rating like 5/10).
  15. I know someone else posted AnimeNewsNetwork. That's where I usually go to look at the desciption of the series. If it seems interesting I'll download the first episode. If the first episode seems at least a little interesting (since some animes get more interesting a few episodes in at least in my experience) I'll download a few more. If I'm a bit iffy on the series I'll download the entire series and watch it through to the end even if I don't necessarily like it because as someone else posted sometimes it takes to mid series for the series to get interesting. Also, I look at the screenshots people post on downloads or I go to a forum topic where people suggest anime and look at the artwork. The other thing I look at is what other people say about the series. I don't always base my decision on this but sometimes the descriptions I find just aren't enough.
  16. Dell Studio XPS 1640 laptop Bought this laptop back in 2009, I think it was, from Dell (customized). Was the first laptop I didn't just go to Staples or Best Buy and buy from the store. Looking to upgrade probably some time next year and really my only reason for that is becuase of the video card and processor. Not a heavy gamer but the games I do tend to play seem to need a good graphic card (Batman Arkham series, Sims 3, Mass Effect Series, etc). Processor: Intel Core 2 Duo P8800 2.66GHz Memory: 8.00 GB Hard Drive: 500 GB (2 TB external hard drive for backup and 1.5 TB portable hard drive) Graphics: ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3670 OS:Windows 7 Home Premium Notebook cooler: Cooler Master NotePal U3 (I love this fan/cooler. It's supposed to be for up to a 19 inch laptop and comes with three fans that you can attach wherever you want on the stand. It is a bit bulky but keeps the laptop cool.)
  17. I never knew Chrome had a side tabs feature. I'll have to look into the add on you say you use for Firefox. I tend to use Firefox or Chrome with Firefox being my main browser for every day use (because of the tons of addons) while Chrome is more when I want to play a game on Facebook (some games just seem faster on Chrome). I do still use Internet Explorer from time to time but usually only when there are issues with my school website after a Firefox update.
  18. I am downloading this as well along with new Bleach episodes. Also thinking about trying to find Fractale (looks interesting).
  19. Thanks for the review. I've seen this series mentioned a few times and was wondering what it was about. Will have to watch it later.
  20. A lot of the ones listed in Reptoholic's post are either in my queue in Netflix or I have seen. I have seen Soul Eater, Sacred Blacksmith, Naruto (but only certain seasons are on Netflix last I checked), Vampire Bund, Fruits Basket, Black Butler, Ouran Host Club, Black Blood Brothers and Trinity Blood. I have become a fan of all of these shows after watching them. Trinity Blood, Fruits Basket, and Black Butler I rewatch all the time while the others I tend to just watch certain episodes. You really couldn't go wrong with any that Reptoholic posted. I think I'll take midnightwhisker's advice and watch La Chevalier D'Eon since it sounds interesting.
  21. This is my thoughts on dubbed or subbed anime. Series that I can only get subbed, I watch subbed because there's too many great animes out there to miss just because there isn't a dub. Pandora Hearts comes to mind for me. Vampire Knight is another anime I watched subbed and after watching it subbed, I really couldn't stand some of the voice actors they chose for the dubbed series. Doesn't mean I didn't end up buying the series once it came out, just means I still enjoy my fansubbed releases. But on the other hand, I could watch Black Butler in either subbed or dubbed. Naruto and Bleach are two others I tend to like watching dubbed but will watch subbed just to see new episodes. Once I get used to the voices of the characters it's hard for me to switch unless I start from the beginning.
  22. I think what I will do is just split what I was planning to donate between the two. Completely understand how spammers can get on the nerves. Usually in other forums when I would download from the links posted, I would say thanks for posting and talk about the quality or if I liked the show or not, but sometimes worried that might be viewed as spamming which wasn't my intention at all. I didn't know Speed Racer was an anime until a couple years ago. Thanks for the welcome.
  23. I used to use torrents a lot, but for fear of ISP notices I've stopped and mainly relied on DDL forums. From here on out I'll probably start using IRC/XDCC at the forums I am a member of just because DDL links are getting taken down/reported so often.
  24. I have a Droid Razr Maxx through Verizon. Upgraded from a Droid 2 at the end of last year. The only issue I've had is lack of cases/protective cases. Just upgraded to Ice Cream Sandwich recently. My wallpaper is a stock wallpaper of a lotus. On my Droid 2 I had a Vampire Knight wallpaper but have just never made one for this phone because I am enjoying the lotus picture. http://www.motorola....d=mobile-phones
  25. I tend to be a lurker on most forums but thought I’d introduce myself here. I found Kametsu through Google search while trying to find an anime series. So far from what I have seen the forums seem really great. I’ve been to some forums where new people/noobs/whatever you wish to call them are bashed so I’m always hesitant on posting. I’m not exactly the most outgoing person (in other words I am shy) which is why I became a lurker. I am in college right now working on an IT degree trying to figure out which area I really want to focus on (Programming or Web Design/Development) and in my spare time I enjoy watching anime (subbed and dubbed). I think my very first anime was actually when I was in middle school and one of my friends would draw a lot of Sailor Moon characters so I started watching it back when it was on Toonami in the afternoons along with DragonBall Z (forgive me if the names wrong I can never keep the series straight). Now though I’ve gotten into Bleach, Naruto (Shippuden series was what I was searching for), Kuroshitsuji/Black Butler, Pandora Hearts, Twelve Kingdoms and many others. I am always searching for new anime to watch though. Also, I’m willing to donate for IRC Bot costs or whatever but I’m a bit confused on which place I should donate. Should I donate through the button here on the forums (which goes to Koby I believe) or should I donate from the link in the IRC (An IP BreAKDoWN’s donation link). I don’t have much to give, just thought I’d donate here rather than another filesharing site. Thanks to the tutorials on the forums I tried IRC for the first time when I signed up here and am amazed at how simple it is. All the posts I usually read made it seem so frustrating and hard but it’s just as easy as downloading anywhere else. Wow, sorry for the long introduction.
