I've visited Fakku for quite some time. Made an account and started actually posting in 2010 though.
I've already graduated college for several years. Currently am in the military stationed in Germany having a decent time.
While in, I hope to get my masters in HR so that way I can use my experience to get a pretty good paying job once I leave the military.
I don't really do pictures. Only pictures I could do that are recent would be when I received my AAM.

623. Joined in 2009 and recently got my 6 year achievement. Didn't do too much when I first joined except post in the Flash Games section downloading games and uploading games as well. At one point I ran a Nosebleed thread too. Only until like 3, maybe 4 years ago did I start becoming active in the community and do whatever it is I do now.
I worked in Japan for a year doing the English teaching thing, but had to come back because of some visa issues. Would have got arrested otherwise lol. Now I'm still teaching English in the states. Found the website when I saw my younger brother on it, weirdly enough.

Nah my foot was caused by lake slime and bad doctor giving me the wrong meds for the wrong infection plus disregarding my claims of pain and sickness. I didn't reenlist after 12 years since with my diabetes would have not passes my physical exam. I was lucky they gave me a partial pension and medical for 2 years. Plus I wanted to be home.

Hi, Yoshii, de'Cypher or Simon, whatever you want.
I joined when I was still underage in 2011, I lurked before that in around 2010, was in a call with Tegumi and some other people, I still remember chatango and the likes, geez.
I got banned for a shit ton of banter but eventually let it play out and asked Jacob nicely, got back and got a namechange. Also, of course, I turned legal age so we gucci.
Still playing games, still bantering, life is good. Made a lot of friends from here, some more unlikely than others.
No bear tribute cuz I'm far too lazy, sorry Gambler.

Been a lurker since god knows how long, but joined at around 2k11. Started off randomly popping around mostly the Tech and Requests boards, then eventually settled into CTFG.
Been through multiple depression attacks and stuff, then got into our country's SAE team (we basically build formula cars) and now I'm... content but not happy per se, but it'll do.
Kinda got inactive in Fakku for a while because I became the head of my country's Touhou fanbase (which is a pretty large improvement considering I was just a normal member in Fakku's Touhou fanclub here back then), and now I'm one of the heads of a fast growing Type-Moon community.
I've been actively keeping contact with certain old members from Fakku as well, especially Symeria Shadowsong (who's now my drinking buddy) and iam1vs100xp.
Anyway, sup?

Since back then, I have gotten a big girl job in an office.
I also am going to Japan again this year! I still can't speak Japanese and nobody in my friend group that I'm going with can either...So that should be interesting! Haha!
I'm also still super into k-pop.
It has been quite some time. Glad to see you in an office job now. :)
Interesting situations would make memorable events when you reflect upon them in future. :D
K-pop is all the rage these days. Although I can't tell one Korean star from another, especially the females.

Hi Kuma-san!I have to be one of the most inactive users here. Was already lurking late back in 2007 before I created an account in 2008, back in the days of RS. In real life, I'm a busy working single mom who has achieved considerable recognition in my chosen field and keeping myself competitive because such is the rigours of working life. I'm working hard because my child is a special needs boy and this mommy is thinking of setting up a social enterprise in the near future. Working and saving as much as I could right now. These days, I barely even have time to indulge in my hobbies, though I try to get my weekly dose of anime and toy photography. Priorities get shifted and yes, I miss the crazy banter here on fakku. Lots of love to the people who still remember me.
Keep working hard! You are a role model to lots of people, including myself, in overcoming obstacles and certain social stigma.
You will always have my morale support!

yurixhentai cuz yurixhentaiI've been studying Japanese for about 6 years, starting out with a year of self-study and then began studying it seriously it at school. Now I'm a second-year student of BA Japanese at uni, though I've actually just finished my second year. I'll be going on a study year abroad for my third year if I pass this year.
I'm an aspiring translator - something I've been working towards since I started learning Japanese. I'm currently a voluntary translator for JaME and also doing another voluntary translation job on the side which I recently started.
Also, nice to see a thread from you in IB!
Ooh. Somewhat envious. I wish I could study Japanese on a full-time basis too. I am still taking up part-time lessons and my proficiency of the language isn't all that good.
Perhaps we could communicate through other forms of social media while using (and practising) the Japanese language?
I reckon IB would be the most appropriate place to start such a thread. Not sure how users will respond beforehand. ^_^;;

I remember you as one of the "badass" members. :D
According to articles I have read, the military pays pretty well... or am I mistaken? However, having an additional skill set is always useful in life.
No pictures required. Your presence in this thread is greatly appreciated. :)

Have you reconsidered returning to Japan to teach English again?

Couldn't you have taken it up against the doctor for negligence or something along those lines?
And yes, it is always good to be home.

And I still miss Zak up to now. I have been here since 2008 or even before that. I was a lurker at that time but recently joined, so that I could see those stuff in the visual novel section. Speaking of which, there had been less activity there lately. Anyway, I eventually ended up posting in the forums, especially in the CTFG section.
Reality is hitting me hard, so I seldom post nowadays. I mostly post in that yandere fan club thread for updates every now and then.

The pay itself is kind of meh.
But you get a lot of benefits and that's really the better part of it.
Because even if you don't necessarily make a substantial amount in the military, you get a lot things like your rent and utilities paid for, you get money for food, you have pretty decent health coverage and you get a lot of help for going to school.
And if you're able to stay in until retirement, the pension isn't too bad either.
The really nice pay tends to be more on the officer side of the house though.

Foreground (informally) here.
Joined in 2010 to keep track of favorites, forgot about the website for a few months, and then I made another account when I couldn't figure out my old one.
Nothing much has happened since I've joined, besides making good friends with people on the site and watching much more anime. Currently hoping to get a nice job after I finish my current course.

Yo yo, I'm Lughost.
Joined back in summer of 2010, under a different name, after I had been lurking the forums for about six months. Was underage at the time, but turned 18 soon enough. Didn't really do a whole lot of posting until 2012/2013 ish.
First came here for the chinese cartoon porn, but the thing that keeps me around are the forums- mainly IB. Those guys are a bunch of queers but I like them enough to come back. Especially the ones named Josh.
Back in the day, I looked at the community and thought "I want to be a part of that; they all look like they're having so much fun." People know me now, we chat in skype and some of us even meet up once a year for Akon. I don't think it's sad or false to say that I feel some of these guys are up there in best friend land. They've helped me through 4 deaths of those close to me since I joined and I really can't thank those guys enough...
But here I am, five years later, coming back day after day just to see what's going on. Fakku has become a pretty important part of my life along the way and I think that's kinda cool.
no bears from me

It's a lot of fun, and it's thanks to my 3D waifu that I got the JaME position. I wish you luck with your classes!
I'd definitely be happy to do that. IB would be a pretty hilarious place to do it, but I wouldn't want to get the banhammer for speaking another language, though I'd like to do it.

Oh. I thought about going Warrant into CID since to be a 420 Warrant would take a lot longer to get into.
But I just don't think I would like it as much.

Glad to see life is treating you well. Yes, unexpected friendships can develop on the forums, which is a bonus.
It does not have to be a bear tribute image. I meant, anyone can post anything, including an image of whatever they like, as long as no rules are broken. :)

Everyone aims to be happy, but I suppose contentment will be a suitable substitute.
Like everyone else, I am glad to see you doing well in certain aspects, even though you may claim otherwise. Nonetheless, being humble is a good trait. :)
Send my regards to Symeria and Iam1vs100exp too!

Seems like the articles and news reports I read are mostly written by officers, which explains their high salaries.

Your post has increased my determination to develop and maintain friendships. Even though two parties may meet through an online site, it could eventually develop into a strong friendship, as long as hard work and effort is put in.
Yes, the forums do hold a special place in our hearts. :)
Not necessary to post bear images. Any image which you like is fine. Even if you do not write an introductory post. ^_^;;

I am sure we have both seen each other around on the forums, but I don't remember having an in-depth chat with yourself.
Learning is a lifelong journey. There is always something new to learn and discover in our everyday life, including work, if we look hard enough.
Because they are friends with you, they realize that you are only human and have faults too. I do get irritated by some of my friends, and vice versa, but we will overlook each other's faults and continue to be friends... I hope. ^_^;;
