... It happens. ^^;
Sometimes people just don't think enough. And we can't do anything about it. 9_9

[ohmiya_sg]

Well, we can do something, but...it's probably not worth the effort. XD

I think I might just publicly post all the stupid PMs I get. It's not like it'll embarrass the people - they obviously don't look at my journal and read important info I have up. *rolls eyes*

[elenniel]

Hmm... that might be... interesting. XD The stupid PMs I mean. hahaha

[ohmiya_sg]

I've already collected some good ones. I'm going to get flooded by upset messages, though. I'm not sure if I'm going to care or not... If no one tells them they're being rude, they're going to keep leaving me irritating comments. :/

I AM NOT THE TRANSLATOR FOR [O-E]. IT SAYS SO RIGHT IN THE CREDITS FOR EVERY PROJECT WE DO!
People don't pay attention to that crap, ohchan! They're too busy oogling the pretties. ;D

But I do sympathize. I'd be frustrated too. She probably assumed since you seem to be the 'face', so to speak, of the group. Anyhow, something for me to look forward to when I get good enough to sub/translate. ♥ Looking forward to the posting too. :Dv

[ohmiya_sg]

I'll forward all my messages to you. 8D

[epicwaters]

awww... you are so kind 8D

If I was communicating in a language that was not my first, and was concerned about my grasp of that language, I would not scatter in words and phrases from another language which is not my first.

Just sayin'.

[ohmiya_sg]

Yes, but you're a highly intelligent and rational person. Apples and oranges. *shrugs*

[epicwaters]

WHAT'S THE STORY WISHBONE!

*____* He was a dashing fellow, that Wishbone.

[guingel]

Dashing indeed! I just found another nice quality Wishbone picture so perhaps soon I will have multiple Wishbone icons!

Although what I really need is an Ellen icon, she rocks.

I don't know why are you blaming the Arashi fandom... this sounds like a noob because it's obvious that tons of people will be interested into subbing that file ^^

[ohmiya_sg]

And when you think of a fandom full of n00bs who never seem to stop being n00bs, you think of the ____ fandom?

That's what I mean. I like the boys, I like my friends who like them, I like the nice people who share...but the n00bs are everywhere. D: The girl messaged me again asking why she's a joke to me. *shakes head*

[nana_komatsu7]

I quite understand your point now but I'm not that much in fandoms other than the Arashi one so I can't do a comparation by myself ^^

[ohmiya_sg]

Ah, I see. Well, the Eito fandom has n00bs, but they seem to learn how to search for themselves and things like that after a while. The sempai groups, though, tend to be pretty polite, and the average maturity seems to be much better. I guess I've just been spoiled lately by hanging out over there.

[ohmiya_sg]

They make you look more thoughtful! :D

[ohmiya_sg]

You, uh. Are very special.&hearts
She keeps asking about things that are clearly answered in our FAQ and To-Do list. *headdesk*
