Aw hell, I can't read french to save my life. So I guess that's that.

As for character shrines, I am wondering how many there actually are. I should really just look for myself. The only one that is coming to mind is Juunanagou's Temple. After that, I can't think of any particular character shrines...but that's probably cause haven't surfed for any DBZ sites in a looooooong time. :(

Honestly, I don't know if there are many more shrine owners that would have the grammar to live up to the guides we're working on, besides you and Meri :P.

Then again, like you said.... surf... DBZ sites? Me no comprehend!

Ahhh, Juunanagou's Temple! What sentimental memories! "Jen-gou" (the owner of the site) was my VERY FIRST online friend. I used to race home from school every day to read and send emails to her. Awww, I'm such a dork. :) I think it's awesome her site is still around.

Ooh, a new thread for this?
Sweet. :D

So yeah, really the first DBZ site owner I ever met was Juuhachigou from Juuhachigou's Place of Being. She was at the tail end of rp'ing online, I think, when I started rp'ing 18...and she had Juunanagou and a Juurokugou with her. But they never really were on in public rooms, and I never actually talked to her at length. She probably thought I was another dumb Mary Sue type playing 18. :cry:

The only person I role-play is VegettoEX. He wears all these band shirts and hoodies and acts like an asshole online. He can be seen shunning Inu-Yasha teeny-boppers at cons and hanging out with fellow AMV creators.

Here's a picture of him and his OMGWTFSH0RT girlfriend:

We're totally different people, though. :roll:

I am appalled by those trousers. You should be ashamed of yourself.

WTF. I can't be punk-rock unless I'm wearing cargo-shorts.

Plus, that's where all the fun things go!

I feel as if I would be driven to insanity at the slightest mention of what these "fun things" are...

And where I'm from, Punk Rock is not wearing pants.

What do you mean I made that up!? There is nobody as truthful as I am! Unless of course, that's a lie. Let's hope not, for my sake.

Nah, I'm just kidding around. I don't try to go outta my way to "dress punk-rock." I think half the people that DO are totally NOT into the scene... just giant posers.

You're only a true nerd if you've tried to get that duck drunk.

Wow. Photos of three Americans in one thread, and not a single one of them is obese. Way to break the statistics, guys! And, er, girl. Although I am going to have to deduct points off of Person-Who-Isn't-Greg for having that sweatband on when he isn't playing tennis.

Still, Americans are so much better at getting a tan than me. I'm going to sulk now.
