I can't put up an update on Flist because if I dare to log in, I'll be permanently banned. But, as of right now, I have a 2 week ban, minimum, because some asshat claimed I threatened him when I told him not to go bragging that he fucked someone else over. As if that wasn't enough, he has falsified logs of a conversation we never had, claiming I wrote code for Flist and was going to take it over. Yep, that's me, totally me....More than likely, any of you that know me as Gigaus on Flist will see Gigaus deleted before the 2 weeks is up, because Admin sent me a note pretty much telling me that if I didn't either undo the profile play or delete gigaus, they would delete the profile and ban me for not following site rules and disobeying an Admin.

Oh but don't worry, the same people who openly harass you and threaten to have you permabanned for daring to Rp with someone they were, or speaking in public chat, they'll still be around. :/

I upgraded my computer, and can handle just about any game, and stream on top of that. So, I probably will.

Might make it a thing, might not. Either way, if you have me on skype, or follow me on twitch, you'll get a notice when I do stream :O

Because the new one here on FA is pretty crap. I liked the old one better, but I can't find an option to change it back, does anyone know of a way to?

Apperently I'm the alt of someone else, who knew! So are a few of my friends who got banned for the same reason <3

To my friends on Flist, you probably won't see me for awhile because of this stupidity. I'm going to try and get this sorted out, but I have very low expectations of the mods on Flist since the ownership change. Until then, if you need to contact me, and don't know how, message me here and I'll set you up.

No longer banned, yay~

I'm looking for a video that's music only, no lyrics I don't think, on youtube, with this picture on it. I don't know what genre it is, but most likely Jcore, Trancecore, or something electric like that. If anyone can get me a title, or a link, that would be amazing >w<

As of now, Dragon Rings is now up and accepting requests and purchases! If you're reading this, go over to http://www.furaffinity.net/user/dragonrings/ and check out what's there, get a feel for what's going to be up there. Every time there's a new set of stock, I'll post 5 pictures of the pieces I want to show here, but don't favorite them here, they'll be deleted by the end of the week. If you really like them, buy them! Unless noted otherwise, most pieces have multiple copies, usually around 5 to 10 depending.

Be mindful of the current batch of photos...My camera busted so I had to use a laptop camera, not good. Pictures in the future will be much, much clearer and professional.

Simple rules of how this is all going to work; Goto the submission on Dragon Rings profile, and post in the comments with the tag [Purchase] in the front, as well as whatever message you want saying that you want to piece said piece. Then send a note to Dragon Rings with the title '[Purchase] -piece title name-'. So if you want ot buy the heart pendent right now, you go over to Dragon rings, find the same submission there, post '[Purchase] I want to buy this!', then note me on that profile with the title '[Purchase] Heart Pendent Necklace.' Simple, no? Remember, it's first post, first serve. If you do not post in the submission page, you will not be given the piece. None of this 'but, I noted you as soon as it went up, this is no fair!' Non-sense; Your purchase has to be public.

In the note, I will need your name and email, as well as the name and address of whoever you want to send the piece to. US and Canada only at the moment, sorry guys! After all has been confirmed, you'll send to a paypal account setup just for Dragon Rings. Currently paypal is the only option, but more options will be available in the near future.

After that, I'll package up your buy, ship it off, and you should have it in 2 to 3 days! Easy as pie.

Now then, go over an see what we have brewing!

There will be an announcement on this journal and gallery around 12:00 PM to 2:00 PM, EST [Roughly 12 to 14 hours from the time of this posting], as well as a link to a new account. No, this isn't an account move, but it is fairly big!

Have a cat sit on them for a half hour.

Just a note to those who might be following me here or waiting on me, I might not be on the net for awhile. 'Handling some depression caused by some 'friends', thus...'best for me to not be around for the time being. Good luck to tall of you.

I have to ask, why did this gain such popularity so quickly? Not questioning if it's good or not [think it's cool], but....Within less than a week, I've seen more content of all strips derived from it than some 'popular' series get in a year. Why did this explode? ewe?

Would just fucking end. No, seriously, I wish people of this era could just grow the fuck up. I really do. I know I cause a lot of drama, unintentionally, and I'm very sorry that I do from time to time, but....I really wish people who intentionally caused drama, especially in this community, would get punished for it. None of this 'oh, it's already, don't do it again' half handed crap we see all the time; Actually have negative consequences for being assholes.

Why am I saying this?....Oh, half my friends list between three different sites/community, combined, has shrunk in the matter of a month, maybe less, due to one person. Not going ot name names, I know the mods here have a tight anus when it comes to that, but all the same......I'll admit, he's creative, though not very clever about what he's doing; Perma-X with people to get them to delete their characters, something I toy with as a tease to people...Perma-vore, Perma-transformation, Perma-hypno- Basically, take anything that either kills or removes all control from a character, add a perma- to it. And here's the kicker, not only does he have them wipe their shit, every one of them isn't 'gone'-- people have to ask permission to play with them.

Now, some of you might be thinking, 'Well, that's the player's choice, if they don't want it to be that way, they can just undo it'. Yeah, I thought so too when I poked one my friends on another thing; turns out, he got some of their passwords and shit from either them-- and wait for it--....One of his mod friends on Flist. That's about the only thing all these people have in common; Flist. So some of these guys have their accounts hacked, while others are just...facepalm silly. And logging tickets turns out to be pointless, because hurrah for corruption and backdoor dealing! Even my mod friends can't do shit because of politics. -facedesks-

And I know some might be wondering 'why are you so up in arms?', 'why are you taking it so personally?'....I went to talk to the guy, friendly, given he was, as I thought previously, kind enough to let others still play with these guys instead of having them consined to the void.....Turns out, it's someone I know; The 'friend/master' of the guy that caused the drama from the 'dangers of the internet' journal I did....Turns out after his pet stole all that money and got a call from the police...He decided 'no, I'm not going to act like a grown adult and deal with it....I'm going to attack the guy that protected his friend and 'hurt' mine!' 'Made it a point of telling me he was doing this because of me-- despite the fact I've actually done nothing but prevented my friend from going to jail-- and that all of this was 'to taunt me for all the bad I did.'....Grow the fuck up you 12 year old....So now, I have to deal with this bullshit because, hey, this doesn't just effect me and it's going to spread!

If there's one thing I'd like to take away from this, and tell to all of you.... Act your age. Be responsible and mature. Just because someone hurts you, or upsets you, doesn't mean you should flip out of control. And just because someone is acting like a drama queen and getting attention, doesn't mean it's a good thing. Drama queens go nowhere in life. Ever. so don't be that person, be someone decent and respectable, not a loser like this. That's all I have to say...And, if you don't see me around for awhile-- Or worse 'I' Start saying weird or mean things here or on my other accounts-- know that this is why, and that I still care about you all...And will be back.

-giga

I need to make that a thing....just flop on people as an attack x3

A friend of mine got pulled into a whole stink where a 'friend' between us introduced him to someone-- And no, I'm not putting out names, since I know how badly that goes here, as much as I'd like to ward you guys away from this dipstick-- All as a...I'd say elaborate ruse, but it's not that intelligent to start with....This Ruse to steal the new guy's money-- In excess of $2k USD-- and use my friend as the scapegoat for it all. Needless to say I'm stepping in and getting on a lot of phones, since the bugger is in the UK, and it's now an international crime apparently. Or so says my aunt, the lawer.

I'd just like to say....Guys, don;t do stupid shit on the internet.....Think about what you're doing. Don't give your financials out to anyone, even people you feel you can trust....Why?...Even if you can trust them, and they're not trying to con you, there's people in the background waiting to do bad shit. Man in the Middle attacks are still common; And with all the furry porn you guys have, I'm sure you have to have good firewalls to keep any bugs or whatnot out of your system....So, just...Don't. Do the smart thing and don't play with your money online. Don't get into Findom, and don't do real life blackmail play for fuck sake. Love you guys, and I want you all to be safe, but really, dont' do stupid shit >w<

So I may or may not be on this week/end until the power gets sorted out, sorry guys xwx

Suck.....Really, there's no other way I can think to open that other than...It sucks.

I know I can be god awfully obnoxious by just being me and annoying as all fuck, but......I really don't think that warrants full on ignoring me. Sure, telling me off and saying 'I don't want to talk to you', that's 'fine', but I just...find it extremely cowardly when someone stops talking to someone. Blocking them without saying thing, that's a dick move, but at least you're making yourself known; Not even doing that, and basically not even giving someone the time of day is just...Rude at best, and pathetic at worst.

It's probably me and my wonky outlook on life, but....Up end and ignoring someone-- Someone you made every indication you were going to speak to again, had plans with, and were going to do stuff with again-- is pretty low, lower than cutting ties directly. I kinda feel it's like...Not having the guts to deal with the situation, walking away, and pretending it never happened... meanwhile, there's someone sitting around confused why their communications aren't being answered, and at worse, thinking they did something wrong, or something bad happened to said person, or who knows what, and having no way to confirm it one way or the other...A friend of mine, Drax, he's going through the same thing, and it's driving him nuts. Thing is, unlike most stuff, I can't really say much to the situation, since...There's little to be done short of stalking the person-- IE going through their friends and constantly poking them. Sometimes it's warranted, when they're in a dicy situation and shit could have happened, most the time it isn't, so....Iunno.

I kinda just wanna say, you guys? If you have someone you don't wanna talk to anymore, just tell them...It might hurt them, and if you're worried about it actually think on it a bit, but...Don't just leave them high and dry with no explanation. That's what a child does, not someone mature. Have the balls to at least say to their face you don't wanna talk to them...At least then you won't feel like you tucked tail and hid.

Do it responsibly :P

I have....Something, and it hit me HARD last night....I'm out of the woods on most ofit, but I'm gonna be out of commission for awhile until I can...iunno, breath normally again. Just thought I'd make my poofing clear.

Half the people following me-- and half the people I follow, roughly, are no longer on FA.....What the hell happened? Did FA start another round of silly bans?

so I don't have to retype it a million time....

two weeks ago from today, me and mine got a notice that an exterminator was going to come and tent our whole apartment bloc.....two days before it was supposed to happen. me and the other tenents complained and got a week. The grounds keeper gave us a list of things that needed to be done; Most of it was 'get rid of this' stuff [which in my opinion kinda makes me feel like we did all the work for them], and the list was as long as my arm. To summarize, anything fabric, anything paper, and anything edible, with other stuff sprinkled in between. In short, anything that wasn't the wall, metal, or glass. 90% of the apartment had to go; most into storage, some to the dump.

Within a week's time, I and mine managed to move three couches, two beds, and entertainment center, over 50 boxes and bags, and there abouts the kitchen sink....in the process we found; One room had some kind of semi-toxic dirt from the unit above us that had crushed glass, the bathroom floor was as old as my grandmother and needed replacing badly, and that wood cuts....I walked away with a broken ankle from all the lifting, a gash on that ankle that needed to be patched up, and a broken rib from where one of the bed box-springs slammed into me. On top of that, we had two cats we needed to board on short notice and managed to find a place....But all in all, it's been a long week.

Most of the work is done, but they still need to spray some more.....Total damage; Five holes in the house, two broken lights, one broken rib on me, a broken ankle, and a large gash on said ankle to make it better....All in all, repair of all the above was quick and cheap, though the banadages itch on me -w-

apartment bloc is getting tented, so...derp

Last winter, I played Journy...and started a comic for it....I really need to finish that before the memories go away ;3;

Now I know most of you don't follow me for gaming news [fk if I know why you follow me at all], but I feel I need to say something on this so any of you don't get royally fucked over. 'Kinda part of my job as a reviewer, and all, so might as well get the word out everywhere.

As of...What..The 8th of August, Hi Rez officially, and suddenly, deleted all of their forum for all three of their games...And forcefully moved to their subreddit. I say forcefully not knowing 100% of the details, but if articles are to be believed, the top brass of Hi rez did this without telling their own employees, or Reddit Moderators. Even before this transition they made it clear they did not value their communities, or their input, the Co Founder actually coming out and saying they didn't care what their forum though, or their 'lesser users' [Erez btw, hes an utter pig and child], effectively referencing their supposed 'Pro players', most of who literally failed their way to the top if you can believe that, and are only protected in their position due to the fact they hold the most subs on twitter [for Smite, Tribes, or GA]. Prior to this 24 hour switch, Hi Rez employees began Trolling, Harassing, and attacking members of reddit who did not fall in line with them...Understand this; They were effectively attacking the guys who were already attacking they guys critizing them. Even more topics than usual were deleted from the subreddit, and overall, Forum and Reddit users are pissed. So pissed that a call and vote was made, and surprisingly passed, to Ban the Hi Rez members from the reddit. Instead however, Reddit moderators were somehow banned, Hi rez's 'authority' some how superseding them. As of now, Hi rez is effectively burning their own Subreddits, the last 'forums' they have.

Now, for the PSA. I feel I should warn you all about Hi Rez and their games. Hi Rez has put out some amazing games, but subsequently ran them into the ground within the same year of release. Global Agenda, Tribes Ascend, and now Smite; All started great, had amazing community support, and decent user-dev feedback. However, after February of '13, Hi rez, either due to management change or what, took a stance of hostility and aggression, active aggression I might add, singling out and witch-hunting people who spoke out against them, and abandoning their games. GA and TA officially stopped receiving updates not even a year after their release, after massive, unwanted, game crippling changes, while all effort and focus was put on Smite....which has received massive, game crippling, unwanted changes. With their servers effectively dying, due to mismanagement, and poorly written code, they have made it clear they are focusing on sequels to the games they abandoned, not even a year after their release-- Mind you, these are MMOs, not like CoD or anything; Think BL:R or Combat Arms effectively...It'd be no different than if they released BL:R 2 or CB 2 within the same year of their release. With that in mind, most in the industry and communities are speculating that Hi Rez will abandon Smite once they release GA 2, like they did with their two previous titles. AS such, I urge anyone reading this to not buy anything from these games, if not boycott them altogether. All of Hi Rez's titles are Free-to-Play, with hefty 'Double A' [one step below a Triple A] packs, unlocking their steep leveled unlocks, around $40 USD each. As such, you can play these games without spending a dime, but they are built around the idea of almost forcing you to pay cashy money; Save for Smite, the MOBA, their games and plans for such all have better, non-side grade weapons and upgrades, making anything that isn't default gear BETTER, thus on the boarder line of Pay-to-Win.

The reason I post this is that, considering their behavior, and their...Encouragement of hostile, toxic player-bases [Their own employees and shoutcasters HARRASS and encourage harassment of non 'pro' players], it's more than likely whatever titles they release will be of poor quality, and lack any real support. Almost universally, anyone who's paid for one of their packs has come out and said it was a waste of their hard earned money, due to the shoddy servers, non-existent support, and overall lack of community support. [thankfully, I never paid] Please, do not fall into their schemes and waste your money; There are other games out there :3

That is all.

I wait two months for Payday 2 to come out, at least in beta, and it's so poorly optimized it runs at 10~15 FPS....That literally makes my eyes burn, and my stomach get sick....'Sounds like it's a grab bag who can run it and who cant atm...Gosh darnit Overkill
