Side Note: If this is to happen I will also be taking requests from various members for interviews. For example you could nominate people you want interviewed.

Also please note this is meant to be a way of getting to know various forum members better, not to boost ones ego etc. If a member was to brag about being interviewed I would then cancel his/her interview.

Well, you have my support in this. Let me know if you need anything done.

At the time I don't think anything needs to be done.

I believe if the votes end up to be 50/50 by Sunday/Monday evening I may either trash this idea or run a trial version and see what people think about it. If it leads to problems and or arguments between people then I could always get rid of the idea. However I doubt it'll come to that.

Once again thanks for the help and support.

I wouldn't care too much about the vote. If you like the idea, then you do it.
Problems and arguments are already something we're combating here, so adding more probably won't even be noticeable.

Either way I'd like to hear other members opinions on this.

Close · 07-25-2007, 01:51 AM

The only one I really wanna hear is i0n .

He awesome. Before I left for 4 months, the only gfx designers were BubbaGump, WiiRed, and Jenova. :/

So they are all really cool.

Syntax · 07-25-2007, 02:14 AM

May be a bit hard to get in contact with some of those people but I'll try if this idea goes through..

Also if anyone has a question regarding how the interviews would be done etc please feel free to ask.

Didn't Prinny already try to get an interview thing with i0n?

ssbb_lover · 07-25-2007, 02:40 AM

I think the following should be interviewed:

Wiired
paintba||er
Syntax (:P)
Tails McCloud~
Gymdawg
Prinny
i0n
Mr_Stoukaph
Prez
Mitch2025
WWL2P
Most likely others i'm forgetting.

And finally, me. I would be honored to have an interview done on myself.

So no, not ironic.

I won't add to the tally for the good or bad

It sounds like a pretty cool idea, but I also agree with Mike at the same time.

CantGetAWii · 07-25-2007, 09:04 AM

I gave it the thumbs up, sounds like a decent idea to me.
Hope it comes together.

Napalmbrain · 07-25-2007, 09:20 AM

Sounds interesting, I like this idea.

BrandonMcAuslan · 07-25-2007, 10:06 AM

You know why this is a bad idea? No-one here is worthy of interviewing? Why the hell do I want to read an interview of someone who 1) Isn't famous in any way whatsoever. 2) I speak to (or argue with) this person every other day...
This will just end up an ego trip for everyone involved....

Interviewer: So Mr WiiChatmemberX. Can you tell me what got you into gaming in the first place?
WiiChatmemberX: My parents bought me a playstation 2 for christmas.
Interviewer: Fascinating! So can you tell me about what you like to do with your spare time.
WiiChatmemberX I play my Wii a lot and spend quite a bit of time commenting on Wiichat. Sometimes I go out with my friends and do stuff.

Interviewer: Wow! Thanks for the interview WiichatmemberX. Its been eye-opening

^^ That's pretty much the formula, except the questions aren't so ghey.
