So something I remember having and doing back in my older forum days on such places as DHaven.org, I remember having in my sig and in a thread, a family consisting of the forum members that I consider the closest to me. It usually had things like, brother, cousin, pet, uncle, partner in crime, ditzy cousin, crazy aunt... and stuff like that. Now I know one thing that will be brought up is the whole "The forum is a family in it's own". But I just think that this'd be a fun way to show how we consider different people on the forums in relations to ourselves. Now of course the whole, putting it in your signature thing would be hard seeing as how the forum cuts off the bottom of our signatures after it gets a certain size, but we could figure something out. So yea. Also I didn't post this in site discussion because I don't feel it really has to do with changing anything about the site.
Not a bad idea, I've seen this before. I think it's pretty fun. I'll probably have everyone as my brothers or sisters. :derpe:
So It replaces your sig or is It part of it. I don't fully understand. Can I have the dumb person version? -- Sent from my Palm Pre using Forums
Code: public class Explanation { public static void main (String [] args) { Signature sig = System.forum.getSignature(this); String sigCode = sig.toString(); sigCode += System.forum.getFamilyTies(this); System.forum.setSignature(new Signature (sigCode)); } } See? Simple!
I consider Grey, Twif, Oatmeal, Sedaheht and a couple of other people as my very nearest friends. The other people i have no contact with, i consider just "by-walkers".
Hmm, I've always kind of thought of you as nephews and nieces. And I'm the crazy old uncle that make people change the topic when mentioned.
Oh! Well . . . I could be the *other* crazy old uncle. I'm also up for second cousin, twice removed. Y'know - the guy you're related to but you're not sure how?
Well, despite everypony being nice and kind on here... I must say, there is one special pony in particular who I am close friends with. Yes, this certain pony is a friend I will truly cherish for the rest of my life, and I'm sure he feels the same way. I respect him deeply, and he respects me as well. We're both glad to have met and became friends when we did, and I'm happy to write this out in this thread... You might know who this pony is, but for those who don't: Yes, I consider ePONYmous as my brother, and a wonderful brother, at that. He also considers me a brother to him, as well, and we're both proud of it.
Awww, thank you so very much for this, Cyberpony! *hugs* Yes, I not only consider you to be one of my very best friends, but you're like another brother to me. I guess you could say you're the younger brother I never had. Hehe. And now that you're a member of community patrol, we're now community mod brothers! ^^ Thanks again for this post, my brother.
Gyah, now I REALLY need to get over here more often, before I become "That emotionally-distant cousin who lives so far away that we hardly remember his name and to send him a Christmas card"!!
Welp, for me it goes a little like this... Awesome lil' bro- Danvid Best Pony- Saikyo Brony Russian Python- Miggy Father?- DoDo Pixelated Brother- Pixel Hope Brother in Arms- Rashall That One Guy- Mr.Stitches Old Chap- Merriweather And that's all so far I'm willing to add more...
Cute idea. To save space in signatures could we do them, perhaps, across instead of up and down? Such as: Sister: PonyName - Brother: PonyName - Long Lost Cousin: PonyName - Etc. - Etc.
Currently I only have Cthulhu in my signature, I have the space to spare. XP NOW TO TRACK YOU PEOPLE DOWN AND MAKE YOU LOVE ME ... This is why I don't have friends, isn't it?
