In the episode The Harvest, when Cordelia and Harmony are trying to understand the computer, the lad sitting next to Cordelia sticks his head in shot for all to see.
Seeing him made me think, is he the same guy as in Sundae's gang of vampires?

hehe I love that dude!

How does that even count as a post?!


If you still wanna check it out, IMDB it. I've noticed that they do re-use minor characters like that quite often, but I don't know about this one myself.

Or have a look at trivia about 'The Freshman', that might mention it, if it is.

Not everything is a discussion.
Question asked :

The accurate answer given:


Why do people feel the need to bitch when the answer is a straight 'yes' or 'no'.

Do you want a full detailed analysis of his acting ability?
Shall we break down his importance to the show?
I know, what about a 'where are they now' thread post?

Jesus wept!

Seriously, swine flu - not bothering me all that much if it does go global!

I checked it out earlier but didn't bother to post but since you brought it up. "Guy in Computer Class" is only credited for another episode and that's as Adam in "The Pack". Guess he got a name but that time. 😉

Because someone else could just as easily have come in and said


People aren't going to believe you if you don't back up your assertions with at least some kind of evidence. And if you didn't want to do that, then what was the point of posting? Without evidence, your post was essentially worthless. There's a character limit for a reason.

What a crock of shit.

There was a question asked, MANY times on this board do people simply post the answer without ANY relevent information to back it up - the answer doesn't change because I didn't write an essay along with it.

The whole thread is a pointless thread because Illyrian could have answered his own question by simply going to IMDB and doing the search, which would have taken just as long to so than create this new thread AND he would have had his answer immediately - as opposed to having to wait until someone does the work for him.

If someone doesn't believe the answer, they can go 'research' for themselves, we don't come here to hold everyones hands through how we came to an answer.

And people aren't going to place any more weight on those posts than they would yours. The distinction is, the people that wrote those posts don't get sarcastic when called on it, and they don't make comments about how the human population should be culled.

Firstly, if you think a thread is pointless, why waste time replying to it in a thoroughly pointless manner?

Secondly, how can you possibly know that someone will know about IMDB, or how to use it? Flannen pointed him in the right direction - your post did nothing.

Thirdly, this kind of thing - if true - is often a well known fact in the fandom community, so an active Buffy forum is more likely to yield good results than Google.

Fourthly, I don't care who's hand you want to hold, your post contributed nothing to the thread. If you don't want to give evidence, or feel you shouldn't have to then don't. That's your prerogative. But it doesn't make your post any more useful.

Yes they do, the difference here is that I am the one that made the post.
If it was someone like 'Blondie Bear' then no one would have even questioned the simple 'no'.
Flannen didn't even comment on what the post said, just made some mildly bitchy comment about how it wasn't a post.

Also, if you have an issue with a post I put in another thread, comment on it there, don't just shove it into a post somewhere else.
Especially when that comment has nothing to do with this topic.


Firstly, if you think a thread is pointless, why waste time replying to it in a thoroughly pointless manner?

Ther original post was a question - regardless of if the OP could be bothered looking up the answer or not, the question was asked and got the appropriate answer.
Do a bit of research and you'll see that when direct question is asked, then answered, the threads are closed.
This thread has become pointless because we're not discussing the topic.

You should do your duty and close the thread - ohh and you shouldn't be continuing this off topicness either, if you have a problem with one of my posts, report it to a moderator and let them deal with it in PM's, where this should be being dealt with.

Secondly, how can you possibly know that someone will know about IMDB, or how to use it? Flannen pointed him in the right direction - your post did nothing.

Because I credit people, even people like Illyrian, with some level of intelligence, being that I have seen him use that site before.
My post answered the question.

Did whosit appear in this episode?
No.


Thirdly, this kind of thing - if true - is often a well known fact in the fandom community, so an active Buffy forum is more likely to yield good results than Google.
What kind of thing - if true?

You mean if an actor was in multiple episodes?
This point is actually irrelevent because I gave an answer.

Fourthly, I don't care who's hand you want to hold, your post contributed nothing to the thread. If you don't want to give evidence, or feel you shouldn't have to then don't. That's your prerogative. But it doesn't make your post any more useful.

It contributed the answer - if people want more than that, they should research.
I know that there are people who will read my post and it will either agree with their response so they won't bother OR they will see it as the actual answer and thats the end of the issue for them.
Don't generalise for everyone else because that just shows how arrogant and ignorant you are.

Yeah. To answer your question ILLYRIAN. ( Which was the point of the thread at one time.)

The Freshman character is not the same guy. Different character, different actor.

Adam, played by Jeffrey Steven Smith. The Pack and The Harvest.
Rookie, played by Mike Rad. The Freshman.

It would have been cool though. 🙂
 
Thanks for that atticus.
I heard the way he talked and seeing as their looks were similar I asked a question, I would have responded to that other ....... but, he can't be bothered to spell my username properley, and he reckons it wasn't a question, even though he answered it, go figure?

And what is IMDB and how do you use it?

IMDB is the Internet Movie Database. Its really useful for finding out who played who, and in what! You can search TV shows, films, actors/actresses, writers and directors, and it will provide you with details about the movies/tv shows they worked on and in what capacity as well as dates.

They usually have photos and biographies and trivia and stuff. Its a pretty cool website. It's also got loads of info on upcoming films too.

You can find it here: http://www.imdb.com

Its pretty easy to use, just type what/who you want to look for in the search box 🙂

OK, lets break it down for you so you can understand.

1) Your name has been spelled correctly in this thread by everyone - certain people have just decided not to capitalise each letter.
2) If you want to call someone a name, go right ahead, there are plenty of words that you can use, so "......." is unnecessary.
Example, is "Moron". I'll put that into a sentence for you.
"ILLYRIAN is a moron"
3) No one has said they "reckons it wasn't a question", what has been said is that it wasn't one that a) you couldn't have quickly checked yourself b) needs an entire thread dedicated to it.
4) IMDB - you're always trying to be funny with them jokes aren't you? One day you'll write something that people will laugh at, but for now I suggest you just sit back and let the senility really take hold.
 
Is it just be or did this become basher-esque?

EB! Fine you have an opinion that someone's a moron, but it doesn't mean you have to say it. It's hurtful, and mean! Just because everyone isn't at your intellectual level or something, doesn't mean you can behave like that. And I don't really care if you care, but when you try to be funny you really are not. You think ILLYRIAN is a moron? We think the same when you make your jokes.

I'm outta here

Erm, actually if you want to get off your little high horse read this line
ILLYRIAN said:

Go on - that line came before my 'Illyrian is a moron' comment.
Actually read it.

Now, you don't have to be as intellectual as me to understand that this is Illyrians attempts at name calling, he just didn't have the cajones to put in a word.

So yeah, I don't care BUT get your facts right before you throw in your 2 cents.

Also, my 'jokes' I get more than enough 'LOLs' to sustain me. This thread is indicative of what this place is turning into.

The thread started with a simple (very) question that got the answer it required, with no malice placed on it whatsoever.
THEN someone decided to have a 'pop' at ME.
I responded in kind for someone else to wade in, someone who should actually have behaved differently.
Then someone ELSE (the person who started the thread) made a blatant attack, so again I RESPONDED.

Paint this anyway you want, people on this board seem to be trying to manipulate arguments and when it happens, people begin bitching even further.

Hasn't perny got a bit of a cheek? I've noticed her sometimes can be 'mean' or cheeky too!
Edmund Blackadder disagrees: You realise that you're an actual joke, don't you!

Was there really any need for that? Its just shows how immature you really are.
 
This thread is indicative of what this place is turning into.

Well, for once I agree with you. My view is just a bit different. 😛

For a while I've wondered why EB seems to have some kind of immunity to being banned. He throws around personal insults and is constantly rude to most of the userbase. There have even been new members who almost left the boards because of the constant and unnecessary rudeness. While you probably take pride in that, I'm pretty sure that the rest of us don't want newbies to be driven away by our resident e-bully.

My question is: why don't the rules seem to apply to EB?

Yes and some people try and start arguments and then proceed to bitch even further.

The reason people 'wade' in and have a 'pop' at you is because your attitude is offensive and completely unnecessary. The way you speak to people is extremely arrogant and uncalled for. If you think that a thread is pointless, why waste your precious time responding to it. Responding in the way you did, not matter how much you try and defend it, was intentionally rude.

Edmund Blackadder disagrees: Its amazing how many pathetic people there are on this forum!

This was completely unnecessary, maybe I missed the joke and he does in fact know how to use it. Even if this is the case, in what way is me trying to be helpful pathetic?

What is amazing is that you don't seem to get that one of the only pathetic people on this forum is you. Whatever is going on with you which makes behave in this manner, stop taking it out on the rest of us.

Edmund Blackadder: Yes there was an actual need for it.

No there wasn't. Sweetescape is right, it was totally unnecessary and over the line.

Lurker, I completely agree with you but I can't give you karma until I share it around!
