And I'm sure if you changed the settings of the forums to accommodate my wishes after a certain number of posts, you'd have to change the settings to accommodate everyone's wish for a certain title.

On a Godzilla discussion forum on szetaboards, there's a this or that game that was started by a moderator that's pretty fun. You start off by listing two choices to people and someone picks one and lists two more. Unfortunately, it's not on a Transformer board, but a Godzilla board; but we could do it here. I'll try to get it started by listing Revenge of the Fallen Legends class Starscream and Reveal the Shield Legends class Starscream even though with the one I got from Dollar General doesn't have any to rub and reveal.

There's the right place on these forums for that sort of "game", and then there's the wrong place.

This is the wrong place.

This isn't your personal thread. While I did say it's nice to keep you contained, there's a lot of stuff (questions mainly) that should be posted in other threads.

So where's the right place for it? The title of the thread is comments and questions, so as long as it's related to Transformers, how can there be a wrong question? In addition to the Revenge of the Fallen Legends Sideswipe I showed earlier, I also have a red Legends Sideswipe. I'll try looking him up on that website that ExiKaiser gave me, but Sideswipe has probably been reissued several times, so any help as to which series he's from would help. There's not enough phone battery to take a picture right now, but I'll shut it down and boost it back up so that I can post a picture.

Your proposal of a "game" wasn't exactly a question now was it?

You can find the right place. I'm not your man-servant. You're 44 years old (apparently), I'm sure you can work it out.

by **Jason5billion** » Thu Jun 15, 2017 2:21 am

Yes, and even though you're younger by a few years, you probably remember Gobots.

I mean as administrator, you can tell me what the appropriate forum for a game is. In a way, when I presented my two choices between Revenge of the Fallen Legends class Starscream and the Legends class Starscream from that other group that's not mentioned on the package, I'm asking a question; and the first person to state their preference and offer two more choices is answering the question and asking another. You're right that this wouldn't be a good thread for that because the title of the thread is comments and questions, and questions is too broad to limit to a game.

Go forth and explore the forums yourself.

You're intelligent enough to wipe your own bum, I'm sure you can find the appropriate forum for your game if you look.

Time to adult up, put your man pants on and take charge for yourself!

I looked and couldn't find a forum or subforum for word games like the one I suggested, so would Transformers general discussion be the place to go?

by **Jason5billion** » Thu Jun 15, 2017 8:58 am

How do I get a picture of a Transformer added onto a signature when I've done the website? I tried taking a picture of Vehicon and then going to the user control panel and doing it again, and I don't believe man pants has anything to do with something that's hard to figure out. Can someone please give me a step by step process as to how to get my picture into a signature? I found out the website I picked out was a typo because I put an n where a b should've been. It's very easy to screw up like that when trying to type with a mobile phone.

Do you mean post reply? If so, there is no upload attachment feature shown on my phone. I have a ZTE phone.

Never thought there will come a time where i have to use foe list feature. Not this early, at least. Guess i do now. Welp, hopefully my notifications will be quieter now.

by **Jason5billion** » Thu Jun 15, 2017 10:16 am

I can't force anyone to friend or for me and don't necessarily care to try; but if your phone is too noisy because of posts, you could hit unsubscribe. That's what I did because I was getting a notice from a Transformers toy tribute thread, and I know I never posted there because it was only three pages long when I got a chime, and I looked back and found no posts made by me on that whole thread.

by **Jason5billion** » Thu Jun 15, 2017 12:09 pm

Here's a question for anyone who remembers when Gobots were coming out all the time. Were they better made than Transformers for the most part as far as parts coming off and having to be snapped back on? I remember the first Gobot I get Coptur was bad as far as the arms popping off; and when it happened with me, I just gave up on him because I didn't know about them being able to be put back on. I can envision Pathfinder's feet being that way, but Pathfinder was a disappointing Gobot because she was hard to transform.

I read a little bit about The Last Knight to know that there's a point where Earth or Cybertron have to basically be gone. If that was a real scenario, it would be a pain to take billions of people to Cybertron, so if I was in a position to offer a suggestion, I'd want to say that Cybertron can go.

I read in some Popular Science question thing that parallel worlds probably exist but we could never visit them. If there's one where Tonka was never bought out by Hasbro and the Gobots never stopped coming to stores everywhere, it's a shame that we can't. They've sort of brought them back in Japan because Gobots are our version of a toy that's called something else over there, but they want $45 a figure.

If someone's username uses green lettering, does that mean he or she is a moderator? I noticed ScottyP is like that; but for title, he's a city commander; and it doesn't say anything about administrator.

If it's because his phone's quieter, anyone can have a quieter phone if they use the unsubscribe feature. It worked for me on a thread I never even posted on, and I'll even give two Transformers to the first person who can find a post I made on the toy tribute forum. I just wish anyone with a phone could post pictures of a Transformer when they use do post a website because it drives me nuts that I can't find anything that'll let me do that. I've tried taking a picture of Vehicon like I was told to do and even putting in a website for the signature. I wish there was one person close by who's a member of this group that I could go to to get help. The nearest cities to Orange City, Florida are DeLand and Deltona.

The last piece of advice I can give you on this is that you need to put the full URL of the image between the brackets, rather than just the base URL of the website you've uploaded it to. For example, if I wanted to add my signature image (a cute little evil demon bunnycat) to this post, I wouldn't just put "https://pbs.twimg.com/" in between the brackets, I'd put the full URL of the image: "https://pbs.twimg.com/media/C5AJrRFVYAA0EvN.jpg". Like so:

(If you hit the "quote" button on this post, you can even look at exactly how I did it and what it looks like, so you can probably do it yourself from there. ;)^

)

As for actually getting the URL of the image you want though, I don't know how to guide you from here. On a computer you'd be able to right-click the image within your browser and click on "copy image address" (or something like that), but as for doing it on a phone you'd be better off Googling that since I don't think anyone here knows how to do that for your phone in particular.

I have low memory loss again, so I'll have to try again tomorrow at the earliest. The phone is all I have, and I don't see how Google could help.

Google can always help. It's like asking a real person, but it knows more!

Are you seeing his posts or just posts that others have quoted him in? (Because they'll show up)

It SHOULD work. I have testaments from others as to how awesome it works.

I suck when it comes to using Google sometimes. Sometimes I can figure out an answer to a question, and sometimes I can't. If I want to know if a certain actor is still alive, I can do that with ease; and I even managed to do it without knowing someone's name. I wanted to know about a big Asian guy that was seen in a Chuck Norris movie called An Eye for an Eye, and I was hoping he was still alive so that he and Chuck Norris could maybe do another movie with another fight scene where they're going at it with each other again; but unfortunately, he passed away in 2000 or something. I knew the character was known as the Professor or something in that movie, and one synopsis of the movie described him like a human tank.
