Wave Master · 09-25-2003, 06:09 PM

Well I had an interview with Viper2040 its both for BG and the official Forum so that's why it might have some questions used here.
THIS IS THE EDITED VERSION
ALSO OVER AIM

BWallace 03 07: hello this is Wavemaster ready for the interview
Viper2O40: ah
Viper2O40: hello
Viper2O40: first off, let me say i am flattered
Viper2O40: and also, that this is a great time for new people to join...because i got BIG things planned
Viper2O40: finally, make sure you note that i am NOT the creator of the site
Viper2O40: dont want this interview confusing people
BWallace 03 07: can you give us a hint of this big plan
Viper2O40: ah...well, many have asked about new look for the site...
Viper2O40: i dont want to reveal too much, especially its to be a suprise, even to tmyapp
BWallace 03 07: Whats the greatest thing you have achived in the site?
here's a good question
Viper2O40: in site? as a Player?`
BWallace 03 07: both
Viper2O40: well...a couple of things make me proud...bein g first is no biggie these days
Viper2O40: but back in december 2001, it was HUGE
Viper2O40: i made it to rank 4 with some SERIOUS playing...
Viper2O40: had an awesome record...
Viper2O40: well, keep in mind what my forum title is--
Viper2O40: "old skool siter"
Viper2O40: i am a whiz at streetfighter 2
BWallace 03 07: lol, Are there any specific member that changed you online perhaps
Viper2O40: yes
Viper2O40: nferno666
Viper2O40: i still owe him for beating me
Viper2O40: once
Viper2O40: then kks
Viper2O40: with chunli, none theless
Viper2O40: im one of only 2 to do so
Viper2O40: lets see
Viper2O40: ah yes, i destroyed tmyapp and lefty
Viper2O40: during night of the sentinals
BWallace 03 07: nice...
Viper2O40: but i mainly fight for fun
Viper2O40: so i dont usually fight top rankewd #####
BWallace 03 07: yeah no one likes them, what do you think will happen once SFO goes online
Viper2O40: I think that there will be a massive surge in member activity
Viper2O40: Streetfighter, with NO marvel characters,
Viper2O40: will leave the most used characters--
Viper2O40: ryu and chunli
Viper2O40: plus, with no wolvie or spidey, or cyclops,'
Viper2O40: many of the users complaints will dissappear
Viper2O40: not just that...but also an increase in truely skilled players
Viper2O40: in anycase, besides gambit...
BWallace 03 07: well ppl will find a way to be cheap we know that
Viper2O40: most of the character votes end with akuma, blanka, zangief, ken, or another sf player on top'
BWallace 03 07: here's a question that the VIP's have been wonderin what will happen to there accountViper2O40: Ok, this answer may disappoint many
Viper2O40: First off, let me explain how VIP status will be gained in the future
Viper2O40: In the past, even though we called it a donation,
Viper2O40: we pretty much always gave the "donors" a vip status
Viper2O40: this time around, if you want to donate time, we will most likely NOT have a Paypal account up
Viper2O40: its your own problem; we dont want capcom breathing down our backs
BWallace 03 07: so does that mean that everyone will have evil ryu
Viper2O40: not sure
Viper2O40: prob not
Viper2O40: just vips
Viper2O40: getting a vip account will now be up to the mods
Viper2O40: they decide who is worthy
Viper2O40: further, we are rapidly getting rid of vips...
Viper2O40: there are too many who do not care
Viper2O40: those who bitch about it become "village idiot"
Viper2O40: it was clearly stated that it was a donation; vip status is granted by tmyapps generosity alone
Viper2O40: VIP status may have big, GOOD changes, too
Viper2O40: but thats top secret
BWallace 03 07: so do the current VIP's keep there accounts
Viper2O40: not all
Viper2O40: SOME
Viper2O40: basically, admins go through and decide whos worthy, and who's not
BWallace 03 07: do you have a range on what day the site will be on
Viper2O40: no
BWallace 03 07: but will it be october
Viper2O40: yes
BWallace 03 07: well with VIP's gone how will tymapp and you pay the costs
Viper2O40: me? i dont pay a damn thing, except to donate
Viper2O40: like i said, people may donate, if they can arrange something
Viper2O40: but it wont get you a damn thing except our thanks
BWallace 03 07: this will be sad to the VIP's
Viper2O40: why are they sad?
Viper2O40: they donated to HELP, right?
BWallace 03 07: true
Viper2O40: well, they should be happy--they helped
BWallace 03 07: but some just wanted characters
Viper2O40: perks are our thanks
Viper2O40: well, those people will most likely end up banned
Viper2O40: because they usually bitch
Viper2O40: and piss me off
BWallace 03 07: so umm will the backgrounds and the characters look the same or will they be altered a little bit
Viper2O40: thats tmyapps little secret
Viper2O40: we admins know very little, so far, about how the site itself will change
BWallace 03 07: so you don't even know
Viper2O40: nope
BWallace 03 07: hmm... this will be a surprise
Viper2O40: maybe we do know, but i just havent been informed yet
Viper2O40: i suspect we will know at least a few days in advance of you guys
Viper2O40: but we wont go announcing it
Viper2O40: ah, something people may want to know--somethin g i DO know
Viper2O40: in SFO, i WILL be an insite mod, and or admin
BWallace 03 07: whoa so you'll be keeping track of the site awesome
BWallace 03 07: also because of roms most ppl might not be playing the site do you think that this will affect the site alot
Viper2O40: no
Viper2O40: its easier to come to this site than to find illegal roms, then to find people through em
Viper2O40: many people dont even bother with the downloadable version of the site
Viper2O40: too much work
Viper2O40: thats why i think roms will have little impact
BWallace 03 07: well what happened to the site after its cancelation because some ppl were able to play on the servers
Viper2O40: in accordance with eli bard's requeston behalf of marvel, we removed all marvel related content from the SITE
Viper2O40: now, we cant control what downloadable site people play, can we?
BWallace 03 07: true but will ppl be able to downlod the site or not
Viper2O40: not sure
Viper2O40: that is a VERY good question; i will see if i can get you an answer
Viper2O40: hold on
Viper2O40: ill get back to you on that
Viper2O40: continue
BWallace 03 07: ok
BWallace 03 07: do you act the sameway on the site and in real life
Viper2O40: mostly, yes
Viper2O40: i am normally a calm person, slow to anger
Viper2O40: well, not slow to ANGER
Viper2O40: but slow to let my anger show i am always polite even when they are not
BWallace 03 07: As we know a lot of old people just left the site and never came back. If you could get just one to come back who would you choose?
Viper2O40: that is atough question
Viper2O40: there are quite a few that i dearly miss
BWallace 03 07: well than name a few
Viper2O40: one in particular...he was the one who showed me the site in the first place
Viper2O40: just remembered something
Viper2O40: in regard to the question about what happens to the XvsSf download\
BWallace 03 07: yes
Viper2O40: i believe that when they load the downloadable version, they will be told to update their current version of sfo
Viper2O40: basically, they wouldnt be able to play
Viper2O40: not sure though
BWallace 03 07: so those with the downloaded version will have to redownload the files
Viper2O40: no, they may not be able to USE the old download
Viper2O40: the xvssf download
BWallace 03 07: ok well who showed you the site
Viper2O40: name of viperstinger
Viper2O40: we ran a clan over at the msn gaming zone
Viper2O40: in a site called antz
Viper2O40: havent seen him for years
Viper2O40: ie, like 1.5 years
Viper2O40: not on his messenger, eiither
Viper2O40: nor have i seen...gah, whats his name
Viper2O40: steel...panther?
Viper2O40: yeah, sounds right
Viper2O40: anyways, we used to be close
BWallace 03 07: what awaits the official forum
Viper2O40: um..."big things"
Viper2O40: youve already seen the kind of attention to detail i pay
Viper2O40: i fixed the stars on VIPs
Viper2O40: so that they work normally
Viper2O40: and some may have seen me experimenting with how names show up
BWallace 03 07: when will we be able to place avatars and image sigs
BWallace 03 07: do you know
Viper2O40: soon
Viper2O40: i can ask tmyapp for the ok to do it tonight
BWallace 03 07: ok
Viper2O40: out of curiosity, you use a custom avatar?
Viper2O40: or one of the ones that the site uses?
BWallace 03 07: custom made
Viper2O40: i think custom avatars are causing the problem; people with normal avatars should be able to change em
Viper2O40: see, right now, custom avs are disabled
BWallace 03 07: oh
Viper2O40: so if youve already got one, the site doesnt want to let you mess with it
BWallace 03 07: ok
Viper2O40: forum problems will be rapidly taken care of in SFO
BWallace 03 07: excelent
Viper2O40: i have people willing to test with me to fix problems within 6 hours of discovery
BWallace 03 07: thats cool
BWallace 03 07: finally will you ever make an appearence to Battle Grounds and thank you again for the things you and tymapp have done for us
Viper2O40: I ocassionally stumble through the dark alleys of bg..
Viper2O40: but it scares me
BWallace 03 07: lol
Viper2O40: anyways, i prefer SFO
Viper2O40: and Svssf forums
Viper2O40: partially because i can always win an arguement here with the "edit" button
BWallace 03 07: what characters will we have the first time it will be out
Viper2O40: chun, ryu most likely
BWallace 03 07: how about akuma
Viper2O40: ahhh....not sure
BWallace 03 07: I thought he was completed
Viper2O40: perhaps, if tmyapp put in that extra little bit of work
BWallace 03 07: the day he was said to be completed was the day marvel closed it done
Viper2O40: ah
BWallace 03 07: down*
Viper2O40: then i assume so, yes
BWallace 03 07: well sorry for keeping you busy but I must go thank you for the interview and expect to see it tommorow
Viper2O40: ok
Viper2O40: glad to help
BWallace 03 07: bye
Viper2O40: bye

There you have it I didn't edit much but here are the things that SFO will be like
