As you can see, there are two people smiling on this picture. One of them is me. Who am I?
Yes, the girl. Not the guy, the girl. The guy is a Dutch singer called Rolf Koster.
My position on Basil Market, as my title clearly states, is an awkward one. yes, I am accepted by most members, but still I have some remarks, good and bad. I'll list them here:
1. I am European. According to some people I am not supposed to be playing GMS. It's a game for North America only, after all. I have been called "trash", "no life" (Since the abbreviation of the name of my country is "nl" , and time after time I have been told how my country/continent is inferior to the USA. Now take my word: Only few people have said that USA thing.
They feel I'm leeching off thier game, but as long as Nexon tolerates me they should shut up.
2. I have a tanned character and I have been called "neegar" once, but that was just once and it was a troll. Good job, Basil. The guy got banned right away, by the way.
3. I noticed how guys tend to speak about girls as "chicks" and they're often boasting about "If I could travel through time I'd go to the future, bang a girl and travel back." Also they (those guys, not every guy) believe they can knock out a whole bunch of people all on their own, and think they can floor a girl by "patting her or giving her a little shove". Also, when a girl doesn't give them what they want they call her "whore". I don't want to sound feminist, but I really hate that kind of talking. My brothers talked like that when they were 9. besides, I'm a girl and a Martial Artist. Think they can shove me and floor me with a "beech clap"?
4. I have also been called a no-lifer and "nerdygirl" cause apparently girls don't play games.
5. Religion-threads annoy the hell out of me (Okay, that pun came unsuspected) because they always end up in a serious "Atheist vc Christian" flame war in which even the mods take sides. For me as an Agnost it's hard to try and be objective. Those threads only lead to hatred, and serve no purpose in my opinion.
6. It's good there are less "Hermits are idiot KSers" threads. 
7. People stereotype people from the US as dumb and fat, Asians as hyper-smart but having small *things*, Europeans as stupid and helpless and, to be more specific, the Dutch males as gay pot addicted farmers and the Dutch females as pot addicted whores. Cool. Sorry if I stereotype that as illogical.
8. Grammar Nazis: when someone writes "tyop" on stead of "typo" it has to do with spelling, and not with "grammer", as a LOT of Grammar Nazis call it. Tip: When being a Grammar Nazi, also double check your own spelling. Or better: don't post. I sometimes produce a "Dutchism" and get becritisized hugely over that.
9. Being brave behind a screen is an act of fear, try being brave in real life in stead. I've been called "gay" enough by someone who doesn't know me at all. Besides, I'm straight.
10. Yeah, I know my attack range (677-1103) is low. And that STR Bandits aren't as strong as LUK Bandits. But I couldn't really appreciate it when people called me a "failure". The only one I could appreciate was "STR Bandits are not human". I never knew pixels were human. It gave me a good laugh.
I would like to thank the Moderators for bringing order into chaos. There are many good things on this website too. Maybe I'll list them in the future.
Yeah, yeah I know I should not make a fuss out of it, but sometimes it gets my blood boiling. 
Thanks for your attention.

2. Honestly why did you tan your character? You're not even close to that dark in real-life!
3. Lol, little kids.
4. You're kidding, right? There are no girls on teh intarweb and they never play mah video games! ! ! !
8. Making fun of somebody else's grammar only to make a simple mistake yourself = priceless.
5. As said by George Carlin when he was talking about the amendments and shortening them. He wished to add this one: "keep thy religion to thyself"
6. They'll be back ~_~
8. Being called "gay" or "fat" or whatever when they literally don't know you = instant failure for them. They realize they are losing the argument (if there was one)
10. As I've said before "if my 'weak' damage range prevents me from 2-3 hitting a monster instead of a luk bandit 1-2 hitting it, then I'll admit defeat, but the fact it, that most (especially unfunded) LUK CBs only outdamage me by a bit and that, in no way, makes them suddenly be able to kill a monster in less hits. Sorry, it just doesn't"
This was a lot longer than I though it was going to be. Most of your blogs (well, the other....2) are very short.
EDIT: crap, I didn't mean to reply to so many.....
Bands: SOAD, Mudvayne, Metallica, In Flames, Godsmack, etc
2, I wanted my character to look a bit like Touzokuou Bakura-Sama from Yu-Gi-Oh. Only something went terribly wrong with the hair. XD
3. Yeah indeed. XD But they get on my nerves. Little enough to fit on them...
4. LOL Haha, "intarweb", brilliant
8a. True that. When that happens I'm usually taking the Grammar Nazi path myself, but only to correct trolls who make mistakes themself. XD
5. Hehe Freedom of religion is a tough subject.
6. I think you're correct on that... Assassin vs Bandit-threads are also on the return. Every time I see one I just link through to that weird guide-thingy in the Guide section in which I've been called an idiot at least twice.
8b. Very true, very true. Bad at flyting, I guess.
10. Yeah. Only in game an unfunded LUK Bandit gave me 750 to "fix ur noob damage". I didn't really know how to react to that. XD Plus I get the impression most CBs on Basil are insanely rich and insanely funded, making poor Touz with her 60M a bit... hobo-ish. Though I can get what I want and increase my damage. I've been searching the FM for a good River for several weeks; never found one.
I'm really good at writing long stories, by the way. XD I'm working on a "how to save money using Chakra and smart Savage Blow strategies" guide and that one's getting kinda long too.

It really pisses me off how people can be so shallow, especially over a 2D pixelised character. I mean, how should that effect (affect? effect? Argh) how they treat you, you're still human right?
Wow at number 1 though. I haven't experienced that luckily, but sheesh.. I'm sure they'd be willing to move to a different version of MS if they'd been working on a character for like 2 or so years. *Cough*
Religion threads... I avoid them completely. But that means having to avoid about 60% of the Chat area.
And wow, 60mil..? I only have like 50mil and that's with Gacha. >_>;; I'm stupidly unlucky with drops though.
You look really pretty in that photo btw. I love your hair. < 3
And iEatSocks.. Do you really have to comment on every single blog with useless crap? I know you want attention to your blog and so on, but sheesh, atleast put some effort in. (Sorry about that, it's just it's really annoying me seeing these useless comments from her everywhere on Profil3)
Bands: Muse, Savage Garden, A Perfect Circle, Queen, Radiohead, Placebo, 12012, Miyavi
Number 1 has happened to me a couple of times, not just on Basil, but also in game. I guess some people don't find it fair that Europeans can still play GMS to some extend. Those people generally appear to flame a bit on the forum, call some names and then proceed to try and hack their way into JMS and KMS.
I look tired on that piccy. I had come there just to meert the guy and before his vocal group was up I had to endure 6 hours of quite old men making dirty remarks and trying to chat me up. I am never going to go there again. XD But thanks. My hair is kinda unique. I have been christened "Hermione" by some people for it.
I'm not really lucky with drops either, but I have a buddy who somehow manages to always get "top dollar" (It's an expression he uses and I know no substitute for it ) for the stuff he sells for me. My 6 attack Gold Pow "moved over" for a stunning 8M, for example. 
affect is correct. I don't really know why people spaz about NXless looks. I have been called a "poor hobo" (isn't that a pleonasm?) once for being NXless.... Well, my parents have a pretty large house and a 13 meters long yacht, so we're not poor.
Well, I don;t know if Socks answers that too all threads; maybe my rant just shocked her. XD

But he's completely white isn't he? O_o
And wow, 60 million? You're rich!!!!!
Forget about getting a better golden river, get a godly AB for level 80

Well, there are three major Bakuras; Yami no Bakura, Bakura Ryou and Touzokuou Bakura-Sama. Yami and Ryou are both yellow-ish, but Touzokuou is copper. He's the mean guy with the purple eyes and the yellow hood (which he takes off) and the blue skirt, (which he does not take off) link. he does have "the hair", but not the "I'm terriobly sick and I will dsoon be dying" colour of the other Bakura.s XD
He's a Bandit and a murderer.
And he'd be played by this guy, the guy I'm on the picture with: link
That's how Dutch Ryou sounds like when he sings. Maybe a bit wimpy. XD

1. no comment
2. mr basil has no priorities but if enough people report it, eventually he might ban
3. thats because they are 9
4. refer to the comment above. also girl have coooties which doesnt let them play.
5. even thought i always reported those threads no one bothered to shut them down. also i remember one basil id that ALWAYS starts troll threads agains religion. AtrixAplpha
6. are you cereal? mayhaps my leave did some good
7. i stereotype the dutch as having great beards, refer here windmills, and have awesome shoes. seriously, WOODEN SHOES!
8. accually people call others grammar nazis when they point out the stupidity of thread starter writing
9. ever heard of INTERNAT HATE MACHINE? well thats what people try to be. i for one, do my best to be anonymous. also i dont get that part. where do people come up with the idea that one is gay, unless the person openly admits it?
10. but straight bandits have the sexiest daggers D: who cares what your damage is if you have a freaking cursayer, instead of that fugly looking varkit? there is a reason my basil avatar looked that way.
Bands: Disturbed, DEATHKLOK, SPINAL TAP, Dragonforce.
I really enjoyed reading your points, especially #7, which I respond with: Stereotyping idiots as idiots is doing a favor for the next guy to meet them. Oh, and #4 too: What type of a no-life judges someone for something that they also do?
Bands: The Eagles
1. Ah, yeah XD
2. Luckily there are still mods around. @_@ Mr Basil is opposed to racism, but he's not around all that much.
3. You're probably right on that. Well, there's a Dutch sayiing only used by Dutch females: "The bigger the mouth, the smaller the weenie." Of course that is not always true...
4. hehe XD
5. I think he even started a thread the day before yesterday, but it soon was closed by Mindstormer. Another thread, which was about Christianity vs Science, was mysteriously closed by Misacorp after more than 40 pages.
6. Well, right after you left there was an ENORMOUS increase in those threads, maybe people were missing you.
7. That piccy is awesome. XD Yeah, you're right abot the windmills and Dutch farmers still wear wooden shoes. (or clogs) Luckily we have evolved in the mean time, so I don't have to walk around wearing a white cap with antennae sticking out of it. link
8. Yeah, also. There is a pretty new guy on Basil who reacts kinda harsh to most threads (he is not an unpleasant person, just harsh) and he starts all sentences with a bold letter. People attack him because of that, he does his best to find a flaw in their spelling, etc, etc...
I have been becritisized in a thread (in which I was being nice) because of "baaaaaaad spelling". I "misspelled" these words:
- Honour
- Paedophile
- Arse
That guy did not know there is a difference between British spelling and American spelling, apparently.
9. To be gay is to be evil, in many Basiller's perspective. So people they hate are simply called "ghey" or "h0mo" or "quer", or anything. They don't even want to write the word down normally.
Trolls are quickly cut down nowadays, but when I accused one of the mods for trolling I just saw him on the other day. I guess he did not agree.
10. I love the Cursayer too. I don't know why people hate on others for being weaker. Guess what, I was called "queer" and "gay" for being a STR Bandit too. XD
People don't understand why we make them, but for most people money isn't an issue. XD

Someone who is... socially behind, possibly. XD

OH! I think i'll call that Bakura "egyption Bakura" 
I can't remember If I ever saw him. Why did you want to be like the evil version? O_o
Bands: SOAD, Mudvayne, Metallica, In Flames, Godsmack, etc
Are you sure you're not that big strong dude?
Well anyway I like Europeans and especially dutch people.
So since I'm banned from basil ima go play gh3
The evil guy has the nicest name of the three. XD It's too bad I never saw him in action; the series stopped right after DuelTower.
No, I'm not the strong guy, who's not so strong, actually; he's REALLY thin and kinda short. But so am I, for a Dutch female. (1.68 meters )
Why have you been banned? 
I'm off to American Studies, see you guys later.

No seriously. I feel the exact same way. Except from the religion thing. Atheists will prevail.
But theres no gain in getting all pissed over some people you meet over the internet. Life is too short.
