  • I don't know if I have told you this or not but man thanks for posting the news for so many years! You have a nose for news and you have posted good stuff! Thank you!!!
    I don't know if you're familiar with the youtube channel of Tek Syndicate, but they tend to report stories in the nature of what you post a lot of the times. So if you wanted to reach a larger audience you should check out their news forum. Anyways keep up the good work, I miss this site, seems to have slowed down quite a bit.

    What happened to TH?

    Oh. I don't know much about him and his life. Sometimes, he pops in and out, but other than that, I'm not sure. If by the end of this year, and he is still not active, we can then assume something has happened. At the moment, I assumed he's just busy with real life.

    Who owns and maintains the site then?

    TH and Ghan, I think.
    Hey Tom, do you live in Taipei all the time or do you move around? If so, it would be really cool if we could get to know each other =)

    My home town is technically in Taipei, I have residency there, but my family lives in Nangang. As you may know, I am currently living abroad in Mass., USA for grad school. Getting to know each other is fine.
    Yes I am from Taiwan. I mainly come to this site (it's been like over seven years?) to see news postings. It all started with asking questions about mapping in WC3 haha!

    I'm probably around 10 years for me. To see a comrade out in the wild is surprising.
    Yay! Got myself an updated avatar! Still liked this version of Mega Man, but I can also choose to switch to a different one anytime.
    Hi Tom_mai!

    I would be honored. I look forward to reading it =)

    Respect, yo.,
    Mahu

    What I mean to say was, would you like to contribute your autobiography, from the days of yourself joining this forum to present day, to The Helper Forums Site History project? Because I can't write something that belongs to you and only you can be able to write your history down in the forums.
    You have a site history section being done about you. Would you like your forum name changed to Tom Mai?
    tom_mai78101
    tom_mai78101
    I prefer to keep my name as it is, as the name itself means a lot to me. However, it is okay to be called Tom Mai, TM, or anything you and others wished to call me. :)
    You destroyed the portal in flatland! :(
    tom_mai78101
    tom_mai78101
    That! I thought no one is using it. :O Is it possible to repair it, since the portal and the original one are different by their height?

    I'm not sure height makes a difference, I think repairing should work fine. Sounds like mylongshanks might fix it, though.

    We use the portal to get back to our current area when we die (so it may have been broken for a while).
    Yesshh... I'm officially now a super moderator. I'm sad that this place isn't getting the activity that it shouldn't be.

    It'd seem that you're the only one keeping the site up so far. It's pretty much dead elsewhere. Keep it up, tom.

    Other staff members did mentioned this. I sure will keep this up. :)
    Minecraft host???
    tom_mai78101
    tom_mai78101
    I'll update my status to reflect on current events. I'm no longer a Minecraft host, as my VM that hosts the server is longer servicing.

    Oh, that is a shame. Would be nice with a TH Server. :/

    By all means, if you happened to find anything wrong, do report. The one thing we are currently lacking is insufficient hardware testing. :D

    And you probably won't regret your decision. Hope you enjoy its awesome width of the display in your palm, and so many oil smears are bound to appear. :p

    I haven't had any issues with oil smears.. but I am slightly worried about the size - on the plus side, I can test to see if your game scales well
    Yo bro', just wanted to extend a thank you from me and probably most of the rest of us that regularly post on the news threads. Without you, TheHelper.net would be a greatly diminished site in my eyes. Your dedication is invaluable, so again... Thanks!
    Would you be interested in a News forum mod position? The advantage is that you post straight to the News forum and don't have to be approved. You have to move posts, even your own to submissions if they have less than 50 views and/or under 3 replies in a day or if it looks like a post after half a day is not going to meet that. Not all submissions get moved to News, only ones you think are interesting and you think will be commented on or popular viewed. What u say?
    Hey, how's it going? I was just wondering what kinds there are to see in Taipei :D

    I might visit Taipei some day and want to know a few things about it.

    ^_^
    Omg! You play minecraft. Such a coincidence. I was reading Notch's blog and on the right I saw: "@tom_mai78101 There are some, but it's not that bad. I'm pretty productive nowadays. =)". I was like: "Hey, aren't there a guy called tom_mai or something on TH?"

    I love minecraft. I just wanted to tell you.

    I had a hard time finding it at the store so I ended up with some weird brand but now I have looked around found that Goya has Adobo so I am going to look for that and try it.
  • Varine Varine:
    My boss wants us to focus on Asian fusion for the summer after he took a trip to Thailand
  • Varine Varine:
    Like I've done sushi and things, but I'm not really good at it. We aren't fucking doing sushi though
  • Varine Varine:
    One of our kids can barely get lids on the plastic ramekins without crushing them, I don't think he's going to be able to handle nori delicately. Girl would be good at it probably, but she only works like one day a week and is fucking lazy
  • Varine Varine:
    And our actual cooks aren't really trained for that. Our line lead will be fine but our tournant is still kind of struggling with some things and he takes mistakes way too hard. I got onto him about scorching pans when making cream sauces and he started fucking everything else up, like dude it's fine just turn your heat down a bit. And then he burned like three batches of couscous in a row and it's like man
  • Varine Varine:
    He walked away from the first batch, learned nothing and walked away from the second batch, and then tried to toast it in a saute pan made out of aluminum so it scorched immediately and then I took away and he was sad all day

  • Varine Varine:
    I know our range sucks but it's still a fucking fire down there, I've never measured it but I'm sure it's like a couple thousand degrees.

  • The Helper The Helper:
    I wish I had a flat top grill in my kitchen!
  • jonas jonas:
    I wish I could cook asian dishes :D
  • The Helper The Helper:
    You just need a pressure cooker like an instapot for the asian dishes
  • The Helper The Helper:
    they make that stuff easy
  • The Helper The Helper:
    and there is a flat top grill I can buy that will work on my stovetop but it is pricey
  • The Helper The Helper:
    and I have no room for that anyway
  • Varine Varine:
    I have a thing that goes over two burners for my house, but it doesn't work great. I think they make ones that plug in where the coils go but it's not cheap.
  • Varine Varine:
    And yeah if you have a pressure cooker you can do lots of stuff really fast. Depending on what you're trying to do it ranges from really easy to really hard
  • Varine Varine:
    If you want to make tonkotsu broth, you're gonna have a rough time, but if you want to do like stir fries or something that tends to be pretty easy

  • Varine Varine:
    Ingredients are sometimes hard to find though, which is why we're doing 'fusion'. We don't have wok burners either, so it'll be kind of a weird transition

  • The Helper The Helper:
    Added another slow cooker recipe - this time a dessert - Slow Cooker Fried Apples https://www.thehelper.net/threads/recipe-slow-cooker-cracker-barrel-fried-apples.192860/
  • Varine Varine:
    I have three teenagers apply for college that all asked for letters of recommendation with like two days notice lol. Like I get it guys, and I'm happy to help, but maybe tell me you need it before you need to turn these applications in?
  • Varine Varine:
    I guess they are literal children, so not exactly the best at thinking ahead. Fucking kids
  • The Helper The Helper:
    Yeah they are just inexperienced and young
  • jonas jonas:
    I'm still horrible at that :eek: often forget things or do things on the last minute
  • The Helper The Helper:
    My daughter is same way
