I just wanna say, why does it have to be sent to you? Why can’t it be looked by other people to judge wather it’s good or not.
Because last time it caused some little drama over Dan losing AOTM, causing some people getting banned and threatening.
I kinda disagree with how you are required to be talented to enter Art of the Month. I almost once did enter the contest until I learned that you have to get great photography skills. Given the fact that I really don't have talents on anything, this prevents me entering art contests when I feel like wanting to do so.

Just like what others say, it really depends on what action you did and how was your attitude. If it’s by mistaken, either a warning will be applied. Intentionally abusing is automatic demotion. Acting rude towards players will place a suspension for at least 2 weeks or so

Well I wish I would’ve focused on my WWIII story more than the one I was entering for submission. Would’ve been easier this way. Bummer, it was about war and sci-fi.
Edit: voting for Gekkota because I liked the story because it was during Christmas.

I’ve already mentioned on public discord that the only mobile on GFL that is acceptable is going to be RuneScape. To be honest, I see no purposes on getting a mobile division — it has to be a game that have potential members recruiting into GFL, and RuneScape is one of them, and there are other games that can recruit in many ways.

Great idea. Bring it back and then put me in that rank, which I’ll always be trial manager forever
-
I got:
- DVD players
- mini-slot machine
- mini arcade
- basketball for door
- $66
- Clemson hat, shirt and cups
What about you? What did you get?

Me and @Violator were kinda dissapointed with the movie we were expecting a lot more and something a lot different.
Watch it again for the second time and you’ll understand. People who wanted to share a theory didn’t like how it come. I ignored the theories, I’ve watched only one trailer, and waited, and I loved it.
I kinda thought Rey would go into dark side while Ren would go to light side. I’m going to have to see it again and see if it make sense.

I loved the movie. Some surprising twists, such as Yoda appearing, and making Luke realizing that he needs to let his failure go.
I'm just going to leave this quote out because this guy on Reddit post made sense enough about the movie in Luke alone.
QuoteLuke spent much of the early movie explaining to Rey that what she's heard about him is a legend, but it's not an accurate representation of him and the events surrounding him. People see him as a legend he can't possibly live up to. Meanwhile he know that the truth is legends don't tell the full story, and he thinks his story is his failure to Kylo and the Jedi.
After Yoda's visit (who tells him "We are what they grow beyond. That is the true burden of all masters."), Luke gets that he can't let his failure hold him back, and actually embraces his status as a legend. Luke can't actually survive being buried in heavy blaster fire, but by pulling this trick he makes everyone in the resistance believe he just did.
I think his death is also somewhat needed. The resistance kept running to him to save them. He's always the only/last hope, but he knows he's failed them once and can fail again. It's time for the new generation and the new resistance to fight their own battles. So he saves them one last time by doing something seemingly impossible and badass (a legend to be told to inspire the new generation) and "retires" like a jedi master, by fading out under the binary sunset (that's why they show the sky imo, to kinda close the loop of his legend starting under a binary sunset and ending under another). The cut to the force characters was to show their reaction that they felt him die.
4This post whole, make sense enough, which is why I accepted the fact that they killed him off. (Even Mark, the actor who played Luke Skywalker, even though he disagreed with the script that he was given, thus trusting the writers for this movie).
Other than that, this sums up in a scene alone with Finn and Rose lol

What is your alias and ID on discord? Benroy#7151
How would you describe your activity?
Very active if you're talking about the Discord program as a whole. Not much on the server alone, to be honest, but I can boost up my activity in the public Discord. I cannot participate in Voice Chat, unfortunately.
Why are you interested in becoming a discord mod?
Pointing out 2 obvious reason
1. I am interested in helping out, moderating. and taking care of trolls.
2. I have a great experience on moderating servers through Discord.
----
Other than that, I see a great future for this public Discord. Our main goal (other than getting new users who play on our server daily) should be getting officially partnered with Discord. I personally believe that we fit what the Discord is seeking for, and given with the fact of new users coming on all of our gameservers, I believe that we can get new users who have never seen Discord to have them registered.
tl;dr - I want to help out with moderating by the experience I have since 2015 on Discord.How would you typically go about handling a conflict between two users?
It depends on the type of conflicts. If it's a fight between two users, I would personally tell them to drop it and move to PM or somewhere else other than the server. Ignoring will give a short-term mute and a warning.
Have you ever been warned or muted? If so, explain what happened.
No record is known.
Discord Moderators and Trusted+, please +1 or -1 this application with an explanation for your vote.
-
I hope there will be application being WIP.

Congrats to you all with the promotions! Looking forward to the future and the decision set in the public.

Hey folks, it's time for a long, overdue updates on this mini-division. It's short, but this will hype you up.
Given the fact that earlier this year, Jagex announced RuneScape mobile and few other things, I wanted to let you know that they will release mobile version in early 2018, which gives no known date. To boost up the activity, if you are one of those people who will be returning to RS, let me know, and I will be giving you a starter pack (20,000 GP + 3 bar on OSRS clan chat).
Christmas Event
Jagex released an update related to Christmas until Jan 4, which will be a release of grand-master quest called Dragon Slayer II. If you still want to join and play RuneScape, it's pretty easy - the direct link is here.
State of this mini-division
I still have huge hopes of this mini-division happening and keeping strong, I want to point out that helping me out to lead is still open. I will resume posting more updates on Jan 4 (Jagex announced that they'll resume as it is holiday break for them). I will, and plan to play OSRS more often. Outside the internet life during the holidays is usually busier, with my dad's birthday coming up, gathering with family members, and some other things. Other than that, if I can balance, I will bounce back and try hard enough to keep this mini-division going, doing it alone will make it harder.
To end this, if you still play RuneScape, I encourage you to help me out and advertise to get folks from OSRS to join. I will no longer be going to use RS official forums to accept people's application - instead, if new people often use Clan Chat, I will have them added as a recruit (one bar). I'm going to use Public Discord RuneScape category as much as I can.
Happy holidays!

My opinion on Trump is completely neutral, but appointing Pai to be a chairman of FCC is a bad move, to be honest.
As for Net Neutrality, I have no word to say but to place what Jeff Duncan (SC Representative from my district) replied to me when I sent email in July 2017.
QuoteJuly 12, 2017
Dear Mr. Roy,
Thank you for contacting me with your thoughts on net neutrality. As your U.S. representative, I appreciate hearing from you.
There has been uproar and much misconception following the Federal Communications Commission’s (FCC) vote on May 18, 2017 to formally begin the process to peel back President Obama’s net neutrality regulations. The term coined in 2003, net neutrality, is the basic principle of a free and open internet. The debate surrounding net neutrality today can be traced back two years ago, to 2015 under the Obama administration, when the FCC acted to greatly expand its own power. The FCC abated the effectiveness of the Federal Trade Commission’s (FTC) privacy approach by voting on net neutrality rules to reclassify internet service providers (ISPs) as common carriers, thereby making them subject to Title II of the Communications Act of 1934.
Title II regulations weigh down investment in broadband and have had negative unintended consequences. Essentially, these regulations treat ISPs like “presumptive monopolists”, and according to the current FCC Chairman Ajit Pai the market failure the regulations were enacted to protect was simply non-existent. Market-oriented policies have delivered far more value to both the market as well as the consumer, fostering economic growth. Market-oriented policies, not pre-emptive regulations, are the reason our internet economy is the envy of the world. During the Clinton and Bush Administrations and prior to the last two years of the Obama Administration when the FCC imposed net neutrality rules, the internet flourished under a “light-touch” regulatory approach. In 2015, the FCC under the Obama Administration unnecessarily inserted the government into the Internet economy, thereby stifling growth.
Late last year, just ten days before the 2016 presidential election, the FCC adopted, on a party-line 3-2 vote, overly prescriptive online privacy regulations. I voted in favor of the joint resolution providing for congressional disapproval of the Federal Communication Commission’s (FCC) 2016 broadband privacy rule (H.J. Res 86/S.J. Res 34). Congress was right to rescind the Title II broadband privacy order passed by the FCC in October. The FCC’s overreach is a dangerous deviation from successful regulations and common sense practices implemented by the FTC to protect consumer privacy while still maintaining the capability of the internet to flourish and foster innovation. The internet has thrived under the technology-neutral privacy regulations developed by the FTC, the entity best equipped in implementing internet privacy regulations. I support the goal of ensuring the online privacy of consumers, and am optimistic that with the guidance of Chairman Pai, this goal will be accomplished well still maintaining a competitive internet market place.
Once again, thank you for contacting my office. I welcome input from you and all my constituents as your Representative in Congress. Should you need any further assistance, please do not hesitate to contact my office directly.
4(related to the topic of NN, I'd like to see your opinion on what he just wrote to me).
I have hope on the house of representatives to shot this down and have the supreme court to overturn the decision FCC just made.

Keep being strong and put your head up, and don't let anyone take control of your mind. You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers.

Thanks everyone for your opinion and recommendations. I decided that I will be going with Note 8. Not only for camera, but for my daily usages. Given the fact, once I switch, I will not change phones for 2-3 years, unless told otherwise.
Phones with better performance and duration is always best choice.

I personally enjoyed the last one. The story sounds dumb from what I am picking up in the trailer, but I am pretty sure I'll still see it and I think the little things in the movie or the excitement might be able to compensate for it.
The director of this film is actually the guy who directs horror movies. From what I've seen on other rumors, this is LIKELY to be scariest and darkest out of all films that this series had.
I cannot wait.
