Mosh, will we be able to read more of the prologue soon. Maybe Naruto could try to file a restaining order against some of the girls. Also, maybe Naruto could ask some of the guys around for help, like Kakashi, and the say sure then charage him for the help.

Man where's DKG when you need him, he would've been just downright vicious with this guy. Has anyone figured out what's happened to DKG yet?
Yes it's weird that DKG vanished all of a sudden just when he was about to make his 500th post... self imposed exile from the board? :p

(responding to Moshulel's post (that had no words in it to quote))

And so the Botmaster strikes again, showing his complete lack of comprehension of the term 'comedic irony'.

es it's weird that DKG vanished all of a sudden just when he was about to make his 500th post... self imposed exile from the board??
Yah, I figure he's going to make some dramatic comeback or something of that nature, knowing him it could be that he's planned this from the beginning, who knows?

Well we 'exposed' his 'banned' scheme, so something is DEFINATELY up. <_<

Either way, can't wait to see the fun between him and Botmaster. :p

Think Hawk can actually change his name to Botmaster? He should as some of the admins I know in other forums can change names.

...you know this appears to be one of those times I can't think up some idea or question at all that could be helpful or anything for the fic. Guess I'll need more sleep then.

Don't worry, this fic is no longer in my priority list for the time being.

My muse was killed. :sweat:

Don't beat yourself up Mosh. Botmaster is that DENSE. I mean come on..... he asked if I was gonna write a fic. :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

Just do what I do and ignore ANY post by "him". <_<

I liked the idea alot. If the muse is dead, maybe use this time to focus on your other stories. Muses have an odd ability to revive themselves after a little time. I'm sure you'll be able to write more at a later date.

Well, that's good. I was sad that this muse seemed to be dead, not whatever other reason.

re: 007, with every post he/she/it makes, I feel more sure that 007 is a user by the name of Peter Kim. If you haven't heard of Mr. Kim, he(?) is an annoying user on FF.net and the Anime Addventure who has the tendency to not grasp the point of any given story/thread, and to make annoying and pointless suggestions phrased as imperatives - in other words, he(?) thinks up stupid ideas that have nothing in common with the story, and tells the story's author to do it his way.
The one- or two-line posts, the same bad habits, the pattern of never addressing any objections to his(?) "ideas"... it all fits.

Suggestions are always apreciated, and many of them are taken into account, but some people just don't get it, as long as their not the authors they can't demand what to be written in a fic. :sweat:

I think that all fanfic writers are glad to receive input and suggestions (except for some) but telling them what to write is where the line is drawn.

Interesting concept, hope that your muse comes back to you.

What exactly is the US dollar equivalent of a 'ryou' anyway?

I realize this question was asked a while ago, and apologize if it's already been answered or no one cares.

Assuming we're talking ryou as in the same sort of ryou that were used in Japan before, then Naruto's received approximately $9.5 billion.

How'd I get to this number? According to wikipedia, 1 ryou = 60 monmei silver. 1 monmei = 3.75 grams. Convert to oz., multiply by value of silver. Multiply by 60 to get value of 1 ryou, then multiply by the amount that Naruto's made thus far. Thus:

(3.75/28.349) * 10.77 * 60 * 111,000,000 = 9.488 billion

*whistles* Nice, and thanks for answering this, I'm pretty sure I was the one who asked this and am glad to finally see it answered. Many thanks comrade.

I could. But it's more fun to play around with member titles. :)

Though I am severely tempted to use the moderate user posts-feature on Mr Bond to cut down on the irrelevant crap. I mean, out of those 260 posts, there 'aint a hell of a lot of 'em that actually contributes something to the discussion in question.

Then again, there's quite a few others, some with post counts in the four-digit range, I could use that feature on, which would probably serve to *severely* lessen the amount of off-topicness that seems so rampant here. :)

I will admit that I tend to hijack topics, and so do certain others, but as a rule, we tend to contribute SOMETHING to the thread, even if it is only insanity.

I'm not sure Mr. Double Zero Guy can claim the same...

True, we do go off topic a lot but as GH said we at least make sure to contribute something to the overall discussion, generally, and even if it's an off topic coversation it's usually something interesting and informative, or at least amusing, and as long as no one minds it shouldn't be to bad. Also, it keeps some of the life in the board, if we just had to stick exclusively to what the thread was about then people would feel way too constrained as to there posting rights and relative freedom of speech, so basically there needs to be a balance between on-topic-ness and relevancy, and I feel GH and I have, for the most part, maintained this balance, my problem with the Botmaster is that I do not feel that he has maintained this balance as we have.

Tour thank you for the dollar amout of Naruto's winnings so far, which in most people's opinions is a shit load of money. Hope there will be more of the chapter installments soon, we haven't had one in a while.

Once again.... nothing but spam.....



......... I let someone else handle him.... I'm going to bed...... in a minute. On second thought, before I go.

Dear 007,

Please stop it, you ass.
? ?
Your "friendly" forum Sessha

Anyway...... On the topic at hand, I kinda enjoy when a thread gets hi-jacked every now and then. It keeps people on their toes. A little chaos is good for the forums.

As everyone should be. Keyword here is "should", a few forumites *coughdoubleohsevencough* however don't seem to understand their positions here.

Mosh, here is a small idea: When an amout of ryou is mentioned pertaining to Naruto, why not ask Turo to help you convert it into U.S. dollars as well and post it in parentheses?

Personally, I think that's a horrible idea. It'd clunk up the story and make it a pain in the ass to read.

Same reason why I despise Author's Notes in the middle of a chapter. They disrupt the reading, are annoying and generally make me want to stop reading.

Besides, exact amounts are useless. Just know it's an arbitrarily large sum. That's all...

Uhm... I don't know... how about not? What you suggest is similar to sudden Author's Notes in the middle of a story, that's just bad writing.

And just how do US dollars fit in a story that takes place in the Naruto universe?

What next? You'll suggest the Navy Seals to make an appearence?

Thank you! Yes thank you for annoying the hell out of me. Again!

Yeah, it's pointless and stupid. Like people chatting on AIM/MSN in those terrible shitfics you can oh so easily find on FF.Net. :sweat:

That said, having a footnote AFTER the fic explaining the ryou/dollar conversion MIGHT be a decent idea. But I still say it's pointless. It's just a WTFOMGHUEG sum.

So, what he suggested was, convert a FICITIONAL money system, in to a real one? <_< No... that... that is beyond stupid.

As for us going off-topic, we admit, we're not innocent either. ^_^ But like Israfel and GH said, we do try to contribute to the topic even if it is 'off-topic'. 007 though... just post... unless crap 90% of the time. :sweat: Even our off-topic post are more useful than his post.
