Well, hello :D
Since I'm a moderator person now, well, at least I think I am, am I? (Blah, we'll leave that to Ben to decide, lol.)

Not many people make blogskins during the school week I realise. And it's really obvious why. School work piles up every single day. And not many people have time to make skins anymore! Oh poo to school. Doesn't it suck? And those who actually submit skins either

1. People whom ain't schooling
2. People with no homework
3. People who dont do their homework
4. People who have alrdy done theirs

& so on and so forth. Oh man, do you all think this is like irrelevant or something? Hah, well I'm just trying to drive at some survey which I did myself. Yes, myself :D (ego moment, cough cough.) So this is just the introductory rites (: It isn't boring you yet, is it! ):

Exactly how many skins are submitted each day?
I, being the crazy self I was, went to count the number of skins! From the dates Feb 19th-23th. And yeah, the results are as follows :D

Sunday, February 19th: 39
Monday, February 20th: 38
Tuesday, February 21st: 52
Wednesday, February 22nd: 23
Thursday, February 23rd: 42

This survey shows that it's totally nonsense(well for some people at least)! What everyone says, "Oh I've been really busy cos of school." Then wtf! Tuesday, 52 skins submitted? Hell yeah, babeh, that seems like ALOT doesnt it?

OKAY.
I dont know what to post anymore. Just thought I'd type this out to relieve stress and nonsense from my brain. So yeah. Ahhh! x: x:

Now for some lame jokes to destress with!
(the best medicine for any exam stressed ppl!)
Taken from my friend's blog, shenglin's.
All these jokes are copyrighted by RI! Haha (:

Joker: Have you watched 'an idot says no'?
Idiot: No.

AND ALSO

Joker: Which stupid animal likes to say 'why'?
Idiot: Dunno.
Joker: Pig!
Idiot: Why?

--------------------

Okay, just some slapstic comedy there. Hah, until the next time I post something lame, toorah toorah!

xoxox.
anne (:

Fellow blogskins citizens..

i wanna show you the evidence the MR. guardianangelgdi cheated for the SOTD.

This is his other account, i took a screeshot of it...
TAKE NOTE OF HIS EMAIL ADDRESS.
Its like so obvious ..

And the other person who made the skin his favourite.. summerruby86
whose account mysteriously disappear this morning.

I have screenshots of the account. See the pictures in the profile?
See how familiar they are?

See it? And our dear guardianangelgdi says that
"the lips and eye lid are from a model on onemodelplace.com that I photoshopped"

I bet You wanna know how i get these pictures if the account is deleted?
well, google caches all of its sites on the net.. (in case the link does not work click here..)

STOP denying it guardianangelgdi... I GOT YOU SURROUNDED..
WITH THIS SORT OF AN AVANLANCE OF EVIDENCE AGAINST..
MYLES COULD EVEN DELETE YOU FROM THE SITE FOR LIFE...
THANK GOD, MYLES IS NOT AS COLD BLOODED AS ME..

I am not trying to take away the skin's title or anything..
But, the cheating to get the SOTD must end. Esp the multiple acounts used to rate their own skins and make their own skins a favourite..

Enough about the rouge accounts. Especially Chair707. This site has been talking about them since the beginning. Lets discuss about blogskins.com.

What do we put in our profile pages?

I did a little research. The first one is came upon is these sort:

1)Ghost accounts. Accounts without words for profiles. They have no profile/submitted skins/comment/forums postings. Nothing. A BLANK account.

well i found another one; and it had a red flag. The profile is empty. YET, it has a rate flag.

I was interested so i clicked on it.

Ohh.. someone realli has something against him.

2) Disclaimers. They will put something like; THIS IS HOW I RATE, i don't care if you don't like it.

3)Then we have the very Notorious Tagbox profiles. The tagbox sort of work as a comment system. But the problem is, tagboxes have no control over who can comment and who can't. Which is a good and a bad thing.

Good: You don't need an account in blogskins. Sometimes thay actually give good comments.
Bad: Spamming. Lots of it. People asking for sex. People mascarading others. etc etc.

4) The short and sweet types. These people want to keep it simple. They give you brief description of themselves.

5) The MEGA display pictures type. They practically use a wallpaper and use it as their display pic.

6) "This are the users i admire type". They put tons of user's links (AND never link me).

7) Then there is the ILOVEPINK profiles. Where everything is pink.

8) The MISSING accounts. Self explanatory. He freaking rated my skin. Yet he is missing.

9) The NON multibrowser compaitability type. I don't know what the hell its saying, what about u?

10) Of course. The photoshop savvy ones make a profile using a single picture. Really nice touch, actually. But i pity the 56k modemn users....

11) And we have the "I M LEAVING" type. They are either leaving blogskins.com or not plannin to make skins anymore.

ok la. this one not so bad la..

12) Then we have the "Many many favourites" type. They make so many skins their favourite that it is practically ridculus!

13) Then there is those who submit tons of skins like me and maystar. Talk about many skins.

And i also see people rating low on maystar's skins. Especially the newcomers, here i will be telling you this. Maystar used no fancy equipment. She used a notepad. She wrote her won layouts. And that was many years ago. Of course they dun look very good anymore. Well it was really good then... When she was still making skins..

Disclaimer: I am not flaming anyone.

Well, since I'm one of the admin, I gotta at least write something, eh? As you can see, there's quite a lot of posts on the room404, chair707, right? So, I'm also gonna write a little about them. Hope y'all wouldn't fall asleep!
Many of y'all said that these two users are jealous of the blogskinners. Need a definition? Found one from Dictionary Infomation.

"The quality of being jealous; earnest concern or solicitude; painful apprehension of rivalship in cases nearly affecting one's happiness; painful suspicion of the faithfulness of husband, wife, or lover. 'I was jealous for jealousy.' Zech. viii. 2. 'Jealousy is the . . . apprehension of superiority.' Shenstone. 'Whoever had qualities to alarm our jealousy, had excellence to deserve our fondness.' Rambler."

And, this is what TipsForSuccess.org said about solutions for jealousy

"If you are jealous, you need to communicate. You need to stop assuming the worst and ask questions. Communicate your feelings so you can work out solutions.
Bob says to his wife, "I don’t want to feel this jealously. I want to get rid of it by asking you a question, okay? Good. So are you attracted to Joe?"
His wife says, "Heavens no! Joe just wanted some help with his son. I love YOU like crazy!"
Bang! The hidden communication is revealed. The mystery is resolved. Bob feels much better.
If Bob doesn’t communicate, his wife’s communication with Joe makes Bob jealous, afraid and angry. Their marriage suffers.
If your mate is jealous, make sure you have no hidden lines of communication. "Would you like to read this letter from Jill?" "Can you meet with Joe to help with his son?"
Use communication to resolve the problem. For example, you notice Marcia is acting upset and not talking. You ask yourself, "What communication line might be hidden from Marcia?" You realize she’s been acting annoyed ever since you started working for an attractive female boss.
"Marcia, have I told you about my new boss?" Marcia jumps up and now wants to talk. You communicate the facts and remove the mystery. Marcia is cheerful and wants to go to a movie.
As well as using communication to resolve mysteries, communicate your feelings for your spouse or boyfriend/girlfriend. Tell him or her how you feel. Express your love. Show your affection.
Resolve the mysteries of the past. Discuss your feelings in the present. Make plans for the future. Because of communication, your relationship will be a big success."

Now, how about some comics to lighten up your mood(though they don't really relate to Jealousy! haha.)

People, fight the green-eyed monster! Get rid of the jealousy in you! If you are keen on learning more about jealousy, I found some useful website:
OverComingJealousy
NoMoreJealousy

Enjoy(my lame post)! ^^

HELLO ANNE HERE :D

You also know me as either anniekinz or Ebullient*

Here to talk about Room 404 and Chair 707, it isn’t cliché yet! [:

Here’s me to prove it, and with some added humour of my own.

HEH HEH HEH! XD

First there was Room 404

Next came Chair 707.

Are we convinced enough that these two morons are the same person?

Who’d like to make a guess who will be next?

Well, maybe we should analyze the situation :D

CONCLUSION ONE

Room. Chair. Maybe… The next could be…

TABLE! Yah yah yah. Actually cupboard also can!

CONCLUSION TWO

Hmm. 404 and 707

MAYBE THERE’S SOME PATTERN TO IT! (Anyone learnt patterns in sec school yet?)

Hahaha, it’s a secondary one topic by the way :D

Four has four letters.

Seven has five letters.

4 +5 = 9

So I deduce that the next number of this moron’s user will be 909.

Ahahaha, omg I’m so crappy [: But anyway, there IS possibility right?

FINAL CONCLUSION

Therefore, after all these considerations taken into place, Anne the philosopher foresees the future, and

Next up with be table909. =D

WELL, that’s all I have to say now.

Just some humour and crap to brighten up everyone’s gloomy school day [:

IF it really does come true, someone TELL ME! Then I’ll know I’m psychic.

AND ROOM404/CHAIR707,

IF YOU’RE READING THIS, DO GIVE MY SUGGESTION A THOUGHT OKAY?

The aftermath of a riot is never a nice sight. Not forgetting the end of the riot. OUr reporter were there at the aftermath of the campaign. It all ended when myles said

"I'm waiting until the flags get a little more stable, and then I'm going to be looking at people that have a majority of red flags."

Everyone returned to their dwellings peacefully. But the Chair707 situation is still unresolved. The rouge still being at large.

a remake of shermin's comic..

panel one: refers to chair707's profile where he/she says that i am god's gift to blogskins.
panel two :refers to JAN 23rd when chair 707 rated skins 5 stars.
Panel three: refers to the two rouges attempting to pass themselves off as another. Chair tried to pass off as tjaptjay. Room 404 tried to pass off as 404-error's sister.
Panel four: room404's account was finally disabled.

Anyways, as always. COMMENT! ty..

Tjaptjay's campaign requesting for Myles, the founder and only moderator of blogskins, to disable the rouge blogskin rating account has began. Reports says that a smallscaled riot has taken place in the forums area, petitioning that the rouge account must be disabled. Although the rouge was last seen and assaulted was on the 22nd of jan 2006.

Poster have been seen all over the site, offering rewards for the capture/ information of the rouge.

Artist impression of how chair404 looks like based on eye witness reports.

If you see someone walking down the streets dressed like that, especially with the 707 mark. Please keep away from him/her. It is armed and dangerous. Call blogskins times immediatly.

Widespread discontent over the rouge's rating has caused a local artist shermin_sim94 to draw a caricature of what she thinks of room404 and chair707.
Hoping myles will see it and ban them.
**jie jie means sister.

LATEST NEWS

Tjaptjay is leading a campaign to disable Chair707's blogskins account.
As seen here: http://www.blogskins.com/forum/1/9137/

Still remember when it all began?
When Error404 (now known as icelamontea) was innocenty accused of being room404. room404 was a rouge blogskins.com account who rates any skin with a 1 rating(there wasn't a 0.5 rating at that time). It all began with this. Now, more and more rouge accounts have been set up. Recently, the more popular prodigy, chair707. Rating every skin with a 0.5rating on its path. But something strange happened on 23 Jan 2006. Chair707 began rating every skin he saw with a 5 star rating, stating that he was in a good mood. But both of the rouge accounts seem to have been working in the same manner. They accuse someone else of being themselves. It seems that the 2 scapegoats so far have been error404 and tjaptjay. But since nothing is clear, we can only give them a benefit of a doubt that they are not really the ones controlling the rouge account.

Room404's account seems to have been disable or deleted. But, chair707 is still at large.

update: the Valentine day skin contest updates is now posted on the right side of the webpage. =)
