No more massacres.
This made me giggle with happiness. In all seriousness, I wonder that too, though I doubt they do, I would like to get an answer.

Also, why do some people cuss so much?
Modding on most forums is like volunteering, but if you put it on a résumé you'll get laughed at.
 
Do the mods get paid? I've always wondered.

I wish we did.

Not true. I put Serebii in my resume. Serebii has 250,000 members to mod, and the Pokemon of the Week I write can get over a million views a week. This looks a lot better on a resume than you might think. When I was trying to get a promotion at work a few months ago my boss asked me "why do you feel you would succeed in this position" and I basically just listed off stuff I do at Serebii (though I was careful to avoid mentioning Pokemon). I eventually got the promotion!

Experiences gained modding are surprisingly useful. Experiences gained playing Pokemon... those are mostly useless.

Interesting, glad to hear it helped you get a job. Speaking of mods, some forums mods can be atrocious (Funimation's come to mind). Keep up the good work and keep up the good work.

Everyone knows the Prince Ali song in Aladdin.
But when Genie is a woman, are the younger ladies he's singing with actually saying anything? (around 2:55 in this video)
I've always wondered.

I play it, and I know how to control him, when you touch the screen, he goes down, about the squirming, you can't do anything, which, is annoying to say the least.

Learning to program I would look up visual basic and an easy introduction to programming and look for tutorials on it. As for making games in 3D most game companies use a program called Autodesk 3DS Max to model their assets however the program is not easy to use my any means and tutorials are hard to find however this at least gives you a staring point.

To Zibdas: The three girls sing:
"There's no question this Ali's alluring
Never ordinary, never boring
Everything about the man just plain impresses

He's a winner, he's a whiz, a wonder!
He's about to pull my heart asunder!
And I absolutely love the way he dresses"

Im going to guess that she said that she's a moderator at a forum that is used by around 2500 people a day. I bet she also said that she writes articles for the website that are probably viewed by a lot of people.

Did Hitler kill himself because he was ashamed of what he did? or was it an entirely different reason?

And on a lighter note, I'm on season 6 of South park right now. Does Kenny ever come back? Don't tell me how or when, if he does. Just a simple yes or no.

The USSR was closing in on Berlin and the defeat of Germany was imminent so he took the easy way out and killed himself instead of being captured. He would've faced serious punishment if he was captured instead. He didn't really want to suffer the same fate as Benito Mussolini either, who was publicly hanged (upside down) as proof that he was dead.

What are good sites for sigs?

I've seen some people with different personality tests on their sigs. Where are some good ones I can find?

Hello

May i know what are these Sigs, i really don't know anything about them.

Thanks

A "sig" is a signature; it's the text or pictures that you tell the forum to put at the end of all of your posts. You already have a sig.

And apparently his/her sig is for advertising too...
