• [*]Stepping on Roodaka's head and having the 'hair' part of it land on the center bottom part of my foot.[*]My knee landing right on Piruk's/Onua's claw piece.[*]Slipping on a mask and then landing flat on a Visorak head-piece.[*]Hewkii's foot piece upside down, happening to be just where I trip and then land on unfortunately.[*]Nuparu Inika's mask being right where my foot happens to be when I'm walking.[*]For a grand finale, a dominoes setting of a few dozen sets all lined up because I was going to take a picture of them, but as I'm walking over to take the perfect position to see all of them in one shot, I end up knocking them all over.

May I be so honest as to say this actually happened all in one day? No joke, folks - I was rebuilding all my sets and decided to take a picture of all of them. My room was littered with all forms of different set pieces, and I unfortunately fell ill to being accident prone that day. I still have markings from all these injuries! =P

The 2007 lime-green pieces broke quite a bit. It annoyed me - I had to buy another Hahli Mahri, which I was going to give to a friend, but I had to use it because I never received my replacement pieces from LEGO.

Since the title of the topic makes this out to be more of a question towards staff than a discussion topic, I'll explain what I mean with a few questions towards members to toss ideas around about the perks and unavailable perks that regular membership has and what $20-$60 can buy premier membership -wise. Anybody can answer - this is not exclusive to regular members. Q1: Are you comfortable with the current perks that are available for regular members?Given the fact I don't see any necessity for blogs, poll-making, or other such perks given to premier members, I'm quite comfortable with the current arrangement and feel that there isn't a lot to improve upon. Members are given the ability to post, comment, PM people, et cetera, and those are all the privileges a member should ever need.Q2: Should certain benefits given to members in Premier Membership be bestowed upon regular members? And if so, which benefits?The only perk that doesn't make all that much of a difference in Premier Membership that I think could be given to the Members group would be the ability to see images representing your current post count (Submerged!, Encountering Protodermis, and other such post count 'titles'). I think the storage of messages could be expanded a bit, although perhaps that could be just kept as a perk for the premier members.Q3: Since the price of the Premier Membership has increased, is it still worth it for any of the versions of it (6-month, 1-year, Lifetime)?Honestly speaking, no. I saw the original price setting as touching expensive for Lifetime membership, but now it's overpriced. I don't see any reason why it needed to be upped so severely in price, but perhaps there were reasons that all of us on the site aren't aware of for the increase.Q4: Do you think the current price for any of its versions is worth it for a blog and few other benefits?Heh, heh - no.Q5: If you are a regular member, do you plan on buying Premier Membership? If you are a premier member but didn't buy Lifetime membership, do you plan on buying it again?No. It isn't worth it - at the current price it is for any of the time periods you can have it for, I'd prefer to go buy something else I could actually have a chance of keeping for a lifetime. Harsh words though they may be, you could call what I am being is brutally honest, or stating my opinion boldly. You take your pick.If this is not suited for General Discussion or any part of the forums, the staff are welcome to close it. If this option isn't needed, then I'd love to see some serious, open, and diverse discussion be seen here. You don't have to stick to the questions - toss ideas around if you want. Just stick to the topic at hand.

Wait patiently for someone to reply to a story I might have just posted, and because that takes a few thousand years, I watch some Happy Days.

Another suggestion I must agree with was Taipu1's suggestion of Gold Mata masks, with the exception being the Hau because it was the 9th year spinny if I'm not mistaken. I would like to see a Gold Miru or a Teal Miru next.

^ We need to do this. I'm going to get a microphone soon, so I'll sing and help write the lyrics.

Personally I don't think this is relevant to the discussion of the topic, but if I may say, something with lyrics just doesn't seem like it'd fit with the story. Something with plenty of classical instruments (for instance, violins, cellos, et cetera) that can make a dramatic, hard-hitting sound would fit more perfectly, in my opinion. I can see a fan-made theme song for BIONICLE being a great idea, but it depends on how you go about it. I just don't see modern music or anything with lyrics seeming to fit BIONICLE's theme, but I guess it's just a difference of opinion.

Cryoshell.

Excuse me? I recognize the band, although I haven't heard any of their music. Being averse to modern music, I don't tend to listen to Cryoshell, Linkin Park, or any other modern bands. I'm a fan of classic rock because, simply put, it's classic and it rocks.

I'm very tempted to join this, I'm thinking about it. I'm writing the BIONICLE theme into a story anyway, just for the sake of writing, and in case I do join, I'll have a story at the very least. =P Still, this is a great idea, guys, and I hope everyone has fun - happy writing! ^^

• [*]Poisoned Hau Nuva[*]UDD Symbol

Not a lot, but a few suggestions. Any of the Nuva masks wouldn't be a bad idea, honestly.

That would be interesting to see an all female-Toa team.

I think it would be interesting, and I'd love to see it, but my one complaint would be it would be made out to be a stereotypical 'Let's go have a tea party after we fight these Bohrok!' type of team, or at least it would be made out that way by some male fans.Still, I believe this is a highly-discussed subject, and my basic line on it is, that each element should have both masculine and feminine genders. Although the audience preference is directed at young boys, that doesn't mean there can't be a larger percentage of female Toa, honestly.

Although I don't have a huge interest in them, it's an interesting line of figures and sets they've released. The Avengers sets do seem accurate to their movie counterparts, though - the Hulk needed to have dark-green instead of lime-green set-wise, but I could be wrong.

People have a little bit too much time on their hands. =P Nonetheless, I suppose that's one of those records that is amazing when broken. Was it said how long it took to build?

Hmmm...they seem like pretty interesting sets. I'm not necessarily interested in them, although they are quite nice. I agree with Kalhiki - indeed, the hearse does look pretty cool.

There's already a related topic that's most likely still open (I haven't seen it in a while). Sorry.

No, I believe it's past the revival limit.

Not to crash your party or break the 'rule' you've set here, but this belongs in Completely Off Topic. It's already been reported - it should be moved to CoT momentarily.

Mari0. A delightful mash-up of original-recipe Mario and Portal.Can't get past the sixth world. Hammer-chucking, fire-breathing Bowser freaked me out too much to place the portal accurately, so I ended up dropping... well, not onto the switch.

I wanna play that game, but if I have to download it, it might give me viruses.Will it?

If you want a good antivirus program, download avast! Antivirus. I'm pretty sure it's free, might not be now, but it was when I got it. It immediately alerts you when it spots something that isn't safe, so yeah. There are very new brands of viruses that can't be spotted, but I could be wrong and maybe they've updated.Still, back on topic. Skyward Sword in regular mode...working on Hero mode. I must say, this game was awesome, and I think it's in the top five for Best Zelda Games, honestly. I'm now working on completing Forza Motorsport 4 and Majora's Mask (at Stone Tower) as well.

Because any Marvel-related characters I've ever seen have been in movies, I'd have to say Spider-Man. Not all that big of a Hulk fan, honestly.

It's the birthday of Retired Global Moderator Israeli Toa! Let's wish him a good one everybody!

I don't see a huge difference honestly, but I guess it doesn't matter, as most of it seemed like it was all blog-related. =/Plus, I noticed when I go to login at the home page, when I hit the login button and give my username and password, it would log me in to the forums and would just refer me back to the home page. This happened despite the fact the forums were back up.I was not sure if you guys were aware of this, but I thought I'd let you guys anyway - perhaps it's just a glitch, but I could be wrong.

Also, autism is present in eveyone, it's just more prominent in some people.

It is impossible for every single person in the world to have autism - your point is incorrect. As it was said before, autism is a genetic mutation, and the chances of everybody having that specific genetic mutation aren't exactly favorable.I see it as plausible as some characters having AS, and I see Taipu being a likely candidate for that. I see that Ko-Matoran could have it, but I see that it's just in their personality to not socialize as much as others.
