Forum Search Tips Close

Basics

  1. Search syntax is similar to Google searches.
  2. Words shorter than 4 characters are ignored.
  3. Searches are NOT case-sensitive.
  4. Automatic 'and' queries: The search will only return pages that include all of your search terms.
  5. Only the body of the post is searched by default. Use the Advanced search to also search by subject.
  6. Word variation/stemming is currently not supported. For example, if you search for acting or acted, the search will not return results for act.

Phrase Searches

Sometimes you'll only want results that include an exact phrase. In this case, simply put quotation marks around your search terms. E.g. "cool video games"

Negative Terms

If your search term has more than one meaning (bass, for example, could refer to fishing or music) you can focus your search by putting a minus sign ("-") in front of words related to the meaning you want to avoid. For example, here's how you'd find pages about bass-heavy lakes, but not bass-heavy music: bass -music

    Here is one for Skolir

     

       I have broken the backs of countless mountans

       I have killed too many souls to be counted

       You think of me in winter

       Yet, I am noted for my artistry

     

        Who am I?

     

      (P.S: S&S I know you heard this one before, but for my sanity don't blurt out the answer like last time OK?)

    He is the red-tailed Sverd rider of dragon MacLoren

    he is a young man named stone, but whom everyone calls Rt.

    Mac(loren) is the dragon, only 1/3 or so grown at this point, blue with white talons and teeth.

    The powers he has at his disposal are telaportation. Macloren can make himself a mean set of armor.

    an avalanche?

    Posted Aug 06, 2008, 09:46:31 PM

    Surely it was a good way to die, in the place of someone else, someone I loved. Noble, even. That ought to count for something.  

     

    When life offers you a dream so far beyond any of your expectations, it's not reasonable to grieve when it comes to an end.

    Sometimes you just have to smile, pretend everythings okay, hold back the tears and walk away.

    It was nice to be alone, not to have to smile and look pleased; a relief to stare dejectedly out the window at the sheeting rain and let just a few tears escape.

    twilight-groupshot-big.jpg

    I couldn't see his face, just his back as he walked away from me, leaving me in blackness. No matter how fast I ran, I couldn't catch up to him.

    Today I shall be witty, charming and elegant.~~~~Or maybe I'll say "um" a lot and trip over things.

    When someone says: 'It's not you, it's me,' it really is you, and if you believe otherwise, you're just in denial.

    And so the lion fell in love with the lamb. What a stupid lamb. What a sick, masochistic lion.

    Girls are like phones. We love to be held and talked to but if you press the wrong button... you'll be disconnected.

    Ditching is healthy...until you get caught...

    Jack: ... You must do me this honor, Rose. Promise me you'll survive. That you won't give up, no matter what happens, no matter how hopeless. Promise me now, Rose, and never let go of that promise.
    Rose: I promise.
    Jack: Never let go.
    Rose: I'll never let go. I'll never let go, Jack.

    Attention is never a good thing, as any other accident-prone klutz would agree. No one wants a spotlight when they're likely to fall on their face.

    *Lana Lang*--I was going to wait to talk to you in person...but I knew that if I looked into your eyes I'd never be able to say it. We thought we were meant to be together, Clark...but the truth is, we were fooling ourselves. I need you... but the world needs you more. And as long as I'm in your life, I am holding you back. Please, don't come after me. I love you, Clark. More than you will ever know.
