Title: New here...
Post by: Adrianna1442 on 28, January, 2012, 04:15:17 AM
Umm... hi... i'm kind of new here...
A friend of mine found this site the other day and told me about it... it kind of sounded interesting, so i'm checking it out a bit...
i hope to make good friends with all of you here.

Um... so, how exactly do we do the whole 'hacking into the game' thing?

Hello and welcome to the forums.  Be sure to read the rules and enjoy your stay.  I am Kain, the Overlord of Comedy, a pleasure to make your laughter.  I'm also the resident GM.  I myself don't hack games so I'm afraid I can't answer your question.  >.<

Why, the answer is simple! You use the Golden Sun The Lost Age Editor! Actually, it edits both games in the series, despite the name. You can find it in the Golden Sun: The Lost Age Editor section. It's one of the stickied topics.

Hey, welcome! I told a few of my friends about this place, but they weren't very interested like you are...

As for hacking, the editor is a helpful tool for those wanting to do a few things - you should check it out. Of course, if you want to do some more manual work, you will probably need a hex editor like Translhextion or WindHex.

Hi there. Welcome to the forums. I guess I'm not too late since you didn't reply to the people above yet. ^_^

This is the place we all meet and try to be as happy as possible. (and I think Salanewt would agree with me here)

So... yeah, have fun here!

By the way, your screenname... strike me as a little odd. Must be that number... but that's fine.

And Jamie: probably you haven't realized, but you forgot to say hello to the lady. And I think I know why.

What about me forgetting to say hi? Besides, you guys seem to have it covered.

Hello there.  We are totally freaked out that you actually finally found this site! Yay! Come often, we love you. Woohoo! I'm so excited! Naw, I'm too rude. Welcome to the forums. You hack by opening up a memory viewer and editing different things until you find something, ofcourse. Or if you are skilled, you take techniques like using the SDL-H version, searching for text, and other stuff, etc. Anyway, that's the way to do it without an editor.

This would have scared me away back in the day.... especially if role had said one of these.

It seems more likely that she forgot this site existed after making her first post, to be honest.
Title: Re: New here...
Post by: zman9000 on 13, February, 2012, 02:26:09 PM
well thats the case 99% of the time, the other 1% is role scaring them away... you have heard my story about joining the site right..... lol

basicly i read all of roles posts before i joined... she came across as... ... well (I'm not going to lie and have nothing to lose so) a b*tch. and then the major fight, people being kicked me leaving jupiter.

Do i hate role? no. do i disslike her? no. I've gotten over it. but I have to say when I joined I was border lined on staying/leaving. lol
Title: Re: New here...
Post by: Misery on 13, February, 2012, 02:49:52 PM
Well, she didn't even come around this time. Neither did I. Or even Tan. But it's said that the greatest fear is the fear of the unknown, so I guess talking about hex editors and debugger emulators first thing is pretty scary too.

Haha, I was pretty close to signing up here at the end of 2009 or something, more or less just to pick a fight with Role. Really disliked her attitude back then. Nowadays I've learned to read between the lines, and she's actually one of my favorite people on the site. Along with just about everyone else of you, of course.

Since Adrianna isn't around anymore, this topic is now about your opinion of Role.

Yes well that is my fault... I mean look at my custom title... lol

"Destroyer of intro topic's" its kinda like my unofficial job now...

Post by: Kide on 14, February, 2012, 11:46:14 AM
@zman: The reason I said it was odd was because of that number. If you managed to notice it, it's exactly the same as her profile ID. Like, Atrius's is 1, Teawater's is 2, and so on. That... can't really be only a coincidence, can it? By the way, weird that you, who is interested in those mysterious things, failed to get that.

If you change 2009 to 2010 that's pretty much what I would have to say about people here. I just hope I can be more active and talkative to appreciate being here a little more. :appropriateemote:

By the way, Misery, I think you're the person here who I most tend to agree with, just to let you know.

(Hm... okay, maybe this should be locked after all...)

I know, there's to few who are really active. some days it's kinda dead here....

I agree with Leaf on this.  If Adrianna is still around, hello, I'm Kioll, your friendly neighborhood nutjob.  If not, well, the "this topic is now about your opinion or Role" thing...  Is childish.  At best.  And while I would normally join in on the ranting one way or the other, I refuse to let a topic like this diminish my professionalism.  You may then ask yourself why I'm posting here...  And here's the answer.  Professionalism aside, I think Role's attitude needs fixing.

SILENCE! This topic is now about the LEGEND OF ZELDA: 25th ANNIVERSARY CD.

That is all.

Also, poor defenseless intro topic. What did it ever do to us?

And I think at this point we've definitely scared her away.

@Kioll: Nutjobs aren't professional! It's inherent in their nature! Actually... You should change your custom title to "Professional Nutjob".
Title: Re: New here...
Post by: Kioll on 15, February, 2012, 09:58:48 PM
I'm not professional AND a nutjob at the same time!  That would be blasphemy!  I'm a nutjob more often then not, but when I deal with people in certain contexts, I do so professionally.  Therefore, I would deal with people I don't like in the same professional manner as I would deal with any customer/gamer/subordinate/annoying person.

Geez. I get a -1 for THAT?

:'(

...

I should stop being so hyper. I'm behaving like a twelve-year-old kid.

You know what, I'm leaving this topic before I do something even stupider.

Post by: Rolina on 15, February, 2012, 10:26:22 PM
For trying to take over an intro thread?  Yeah.  Dood, rules exist for a reason.  Atrius has already yelled at us for this before.  I'm surprised Kain hasn't locked this yet.
Title: Re: New here...
Post by: leaf on 15, February, 2012, 10:51:50 PM
Nine times out of ten, intro threads get hijacked. They just aren't usually so blatant about it.

It was just my reaction to zeddy randomly starting to talk about her, I didn't expect anyone to take it seriously.
also don't continue discussing the subject if you think it's childish

Kain obviously isn't around, and this topic has long since lived out its purpose and should've been abandoned. Shame on all of us for posting in it.

SHAME ON YOU ALL.  You all know better, remember the LAST time this happened?  A warning for ALL of you, an official one.  I don't want to hear anymore arguing, I don't want to hear any grumbling.  I don't care your reasons either.  This should have stopped on the first page.  Hell, this shouldn't have even happened, thus why everyone is getting it.

Warnings go to Zman, Misery, Kide, leaf, Jamie, Role and Kioll.
