Quote by NejiYshoka
about the comments above me that posted by a Chinese fellow.
forgiveness is not the solvation as long as both side think differently.
A selfish point of view saying that "I don't hate them becuz I didn't
experience that tragety." It so true that u think u aren't victim, but what
if a Japanese stand in front of you saying "you are a weakling, we rape u
guys and now u are easily forgive about it.. maybe we could do it again
sometime, and back off to wait for you to forgive us again. fuck yeah" You
failed to realze that it is a shame to the entire Chinese nation, its NOT a
personal problem.
and I personally wouldn't forget nor forgive Japanese unless I hear an
"official apology"
I applaud your patriotism, your thoughts are exactly like my parents, always
saying China has to be strong so no one can tell us what to do, and oh yeah they
don't trust the japanese at all.
I was only talking from my personal perspective, I love my country, I love
Chinese people and everything about it. Yes true there were a lot evil done
during the time of war, I dont really want to mention them. I also don't like
how their government is still trying to cover it up and brainwash the
children.
If you think I'm selfish by saying I don't hate them because they didn't do
anything to me that's ok too. I just think that hatrad will not really solve
anything. Of course if a Japanese person come up to me and told me I am a
weaklink or whatever I will just consider him/her to be a ignorant person who
failed to release the existence of others.
I just want to be clear, a lot Chinese people think they have a valid reason to
hate Japanese people, that might seem fine and justified. I have no problem with
that. I just want to say hatrad will only lead you toward darkness ~. However,
we can learn from the our past mistakes and make sure this will not happen
again. We can make sure that by building our nation strong economically and
technologically. But it's good to embrace what's good in other cultures, such as
collective harmony the japanese employ in their coporate structures.
As right now I live in United States, I think one of the things great about this
country is their acceptance. It doesn't matter of what your race is, the concept
of embracing people of different backgrounds.
I guess all I'm trying to say is that dont let hatrad blind you. Because it's
sad most times people are so ignorant, they only think they are the best. They
think difference is bad, they can't stand difference.
I'd like to keep an open mind all the time, I meet and greet Japanese people
like everyone else, if they have problems with Chinese people then I guess we
won't be friends. But I really can't hate maybe just becaues my religious
beliefs. Like Jesus said, "you shall love your enemies"
I'm 100% Chinese. Do I hate Japanese people? Anwser is no, because why hate, I
did not experience anything bad from them so I shouldn't bring my hatred towards
them purely because of my ignorance. As far as they consider themselves
"racially superior" and the Chinese and Korean people like garbage,
that is really their problem.
Can I forgive what they done to my family and ancestors? Yes, forgiveness is
very powerful and I think forgiveness is the only way toward salvation.
But can I forget what they done to my Country and my family and countryman? The
anwser is no, I dont agree how they are trying to erase that part of history
from their textbooks etc and playing like victims. We must remember what
happened in the past in order to not repeat them.
Lastly, the very fact I'm writing on this website is because I'm a big fan of
Japanese animation, especially gundams, robots, toys, technologies. Etc. But
does that make me worship the Japanese culture and trying to learn Japanese just
because I like anime? The anwser is no.
So in the end if everyone keeps an open mind and heart I don't think there will
be that much hatred towards whoever anymore. I try not view people by their
nationality, race, or ethnicity, but by their talents and the goodness.
Quote by GEEI think
it is quite a shame that the histories of Wufei,
Quatre, Duo
and Trowa (and a lot of Heero) are left out in the movie. Maybe they
could have split it up in two parts: prequel and sequel.
Hmm... The parts of the Gundam Pilots' past that can be deemed
"Pre-Operation Meteor" were left out. Which, for Endless Waltz, was
just fine. Not many people would actually understand what's going on --
i think; too much confusion of the far past (Ep. Zero; before and after
they became part of Operation Meteor), the present (ew), and the recent
past (GW series). But it would have been nice if they had animated
Episode Zero... I don't think it necessary, but it would be informative
for those that have no idea of the main characters' histories (the
pilots, Zechs, Relena, and even a bit of other supporting characters),
or were simple too lazy to find out more about Gundam Wing's
characters.
nah i don't wanna know lol i mean they already built the characters well enough,
Heero the cold solider with a gentle heart
Duo, the goufy guy with a sense of justice
Quatre is the one that confuses me, I mean his a blond hair arbian rich family
heir??? he's gundam is named sandrock for christ sake, and his followers are all
Arabiac, that didn't make sense to me maybe I guess an Arabian for main
character wouldnt attract viewers I guess, or they simply failed to realize
white people are not Arabians.
Trowa was explained well, similar to heero, he was simply a nameless soldier who
went through countless battles and was tired of it and took the Barton name can
escaped with heavyarm when operation metetor was established.
And who can forget wufei lol, the impulsive fighting spirit, the teaching of the
eastern morals in the dojo, the pride, honor, and justice and all those things
he presented.
I think besides the somewhat duplication between heero and Trowa the characters
were well explained in their nature and their backgrounds.
Quote by rybaxswhen i saw endless waltz
gundam wing. i was so excited! i thought that
this is the only gundam movie that was created so amazing! when the
zero type wing was modified and the scene where kira oops hero get his
gundam in the space. and fire the laser cannon to its limit...
whooaaa!!! so cool! Gundam Endless waltz your the BEST
movie!
lol not a lot people liked it xd
i guess wing zero custom was the high point of the movie, (they also sold a lot
of model kits because of that lol)
oh by the way zeph I wanted to point out the reason Wu-Fei was fighting against
heero
I remembered he said something about if you wanted to defeat evil, you must
become evil itself.
hmm I have a western digital 400 GB external USB 2.0 without firewire for
$249.99
it's not the fastest but i store massive amount of music, movies, anime, and
back up my entire laptop hard drive.
Quote:
To any of the more technical users here on MT: I have seen one external HDD
opened, and revealed it was actually just basicly an IDE HDD, connected up to an
IDE controller, hooked up to a USB slave controller. Are all external HDDs like
this in one form or another?, should it be possible to replace the HDD on
externals like this?
duh!! of course it's IDE or SCI hard drives, that's why you can buy one of them
external hard drive enclosures(like a metal external hard drive case) and just
get internal hard drives and stick them in there
anyways I think segate and maxtor are ok too, if you have enough $$$, just go
buy one with firewire and usually it's about 60 cents per 1 GB US
dollars
i dont know then, just set the layout to default then, upload the images first
then when you hit upload I think the color scheme page will pop up, then set
your colors, then hit ok, your normal page will show, if no change, simply hit
refresh.
Or before do all taht make sure clear your cache on firefox
Quote by RainOfStars... Just watched
episode 8.
i seriously don't like Nemu. hope Junichi will choose Kotori at the
end.
btw, Is Sakura coming back in the next episode?
ahh yeah i never liked nemu, I'm on episode 11, no sakura is not back until
maybe after 16 I can only speculate but I can't wait for her return .
episode 15 is named delievering voice lol i think Kotori is gonna sing again
Song: all GSD songs right now (field of hope, find the way, and I wanna go to a
place)
Anime: Da Capo Second Season, (ffvii advent children??? watched 5 times
already)
Word(s): knewl, (I have no idea what it means lol )
Manga: ichigo 100% volume 16 and 17
I guess it's expensive because it wasn't intended for age 12 + to use but age 24
+ to use generally speaking because Adobe wanted people who are artist first,
who needed it for digital art development. Not people who doesn't understand
basics such as design and persepctive to just start using it.
But they didn't realize a lot of young people (presumbly) teenagers theres no
way for them to afford such software.
I know I started with paintshop pro 6 for $99 and I was happy like crazy then
later got adobe 5.0 for $399. After a copy of upgrades I was finally able to
obtain CS2 just 3 month ago
The thing is the program is so powerful that the if you can master it and fully
ultize it it's worth it. although photoshop was originally created for photo
ediitng. Now it's so multi-functioned the brush engine, texture creator,
filters, plugins are so powerful that the possiblity is virtually endless.
People ranging from drawing with tablet in P.S. to water paint or CG rendering
in photoshop to making prints, wallpapers, web designs, and photo manipulations.
It's just so powerful I think most people on MT prolly just use bout 30% of it
but the problem is they dont have a lite version lol.
my reason for them are the following, for example, my friend jason is a pure waller, he's walls are
very pretty and unique (most people just copy off his design and
style).
But his best wall only get 30 some favs? and his second best wall got 60 some
fav.
i kno that still sounds like a lot but a lot of his other work under unpopular
category are simply un-noticed.
The problem with MT is that you have to have a huge friend's list so when your
wall come out they will have notice so they will most likely to go check it out
and add to their fav. But my friend jason is a pure artist. I mean he only has
11 friends added to his list (they added him first) so that's why his wallies
didn't get a lot of attention.
Also I think theres a lot of under appreciated work because there is no
wallpaper rating system and maybe a spot light, or categorize wallpaper by
ratings can be used not jsut fav/submission date, etc.
Also there should be a quality control (I know bot-chil) does delete many things
but still there's just too many repetetive medicore walls that stack the spaces
making browsing a painful process to go through.
Well I hope some of those issues will be fixed in MT3
sorry for the jibbishhh.... Just my honest thoughts.
please search for the topic first, I think there's 4 thread like this one
already ZzZzZzZz
Quote by snake102It was really good but
the story was pretty weak
I don't know what you talking about, it was only natural for the story to
continue from the game. I have no complain about the movie. "Spoiler"
maybe more use of materias would been nice.
yes I have watched the unsubbed version yeasterday
all I can say is amazing, after 5 years of waiting I can't complain, yeah I
think boxtorrents have the unsubbed version but it's still worth to watch
it.
yeah im familar with cgi(pearl) old based forum and new php(mySQL) based forums.
I guess you are right but I'm still pretty amazed at the MT's scripting, that's
if it's original compared to AP, I mean I've seen forum/gallery based php
scripted website before, but the idea of combining all those with a level system
and fav system as well as personal page and the flexibility to customize your
userpage as well as the intricated friend and group functions, it must been
pretty crazy to start such project.
breaddy you mean kinda like a web-based e-mail system with like a sent folder,
your friends list and just clicking on their name to send private message and
such??? I guess I'm expanding your idea maybe the server and database can't
handle all that so he made it as simple as possible.
Quote by zephrynmaybe that has something
to do with why Wufei was the "bad guy" in Endless Waltz?!
LoL this was simply one of those alternative personal philosophy like Treize and
Milado(Zacks) had when they decided to have epic battle to show the world the
consequence of war and stuff.
Wufei simply thought the purpose of his existence is to fight, if there's no war
only peace then his purpose cease to exist but later he was enlightened by Heero
at the end
I applaud your patriotism, your thoughts are exactly like my parents, always saying China has to be strong so no one can tell us what to do, and oh yeah they don't trust the japanese at all.

very cuuute lol I had to say it, hey bel-san what happened to your dark grungy style userpage :p Very well done.

I'm 100% Chinese. Do I hate Japanese people? Anwser is no, because why hate, I did not experience anything bad from them so I shouldn't bring my hatred towards them purely because of my ignorance.

Great, finally we can start again, thanks a lot Dark Aeon!
Omg this best quiz I ever took, so accurately described me, I'm glad I took it and reconfirmed my personality. Thanks so much!
Congrats Buddy!, you are just as old as me now!
Sorry I havent be on lately but I'll make some good skins for MT3 maybe for your b-day

Bonjour!! Ca va??
Bienvenue, welcome to MT friend
hope you have a great time here, read the guides and rules so you don't get in trouble.
and have a great time here.
There's a lot of under appreciated work on MT
my reason for them are the following, for example, my friend jason is a pure waller, he's walls are very pretty and unique (most people just copy off his design and style).

Simply the best CG movie of all time!!
Maya is a 3D rendering program, to start out I suggest you to use the following bit-map based grpahic programs
paintshop pro
gimp
photoshop 7+
Personally I use illustrator to vector my stocks and scans and use photoshop to do backgrounds, I dont know how to use 3d rendering programs yet.
But more advanced waller tend to use a lot combination of things but mainly photoshop/paintshop pro/gimp will do fine to start out with.
yeah im familar with cgi(pearl) old based forum and new php(mySQL) based forums.
