When did you find Newgrounds and why did you join? Why did you choose the username koopahermit?

koopahermit:

"I've been on Newgrounds for a long time watching movies and playing games, but i never made an account. I guess I was just too lazy to. Then, sometime last year out of sheer boredom of social isolation, I decided to finally make one to check out the forums since I had nobody to talk to. I chose the name koopahermit which is basically turtlehermit (master Roshi) combined with koopa, the turtle things from Mario. Koopahermit is a long going internet persona of mine and I've been using it for long time."

Do you think that you changed over the time you were here, as user, or also in real life?

koopahermit:

"Why of course. Let's see what the forums did for me. It has stripped me from any innocents I possessed left. It has driven me even further away from talking to people in real life, and it has drove me away from "normal" people so much that I find them disgusting. But in all honesty, this site has exposed me to new interests and new people and I thank it for that."

Are there any other users that you like, and how do they affect you?

koopahermit:

"Xenomit is probably my closest friend on this site. He's like the only person who ever sends me PM's. Sometimes I ask him for some furry porn, and occasionally we have some pretty deep conversations. He's also the first person I ever opened up my depression to. Natick surprisingly lives in the same County as me and we can relate to another when Minnesota has it's outbreaks of shitty weather. I also kinda like him cuz he's 3edgy5me. HomicidialFrog and Jester are also friend with me on steam, but all we do is just call each other nyuggah and faggot."

Are there any users that you would consider enemies or that you just don't like?

koopahermit:

"I tend to hate a lot of people in general, so instead of treating them all as individual enemies, I just jumble them in one huge pile and hate them equally as a whole."

What is your opinion about the forums? Is there one forum that you prefer? And is there another forum user that you want to see getting interviewed by me?

koopahermit:

"The forums is a great place to be able to talk to people when you don't have anyone else to talk to. In fact, I've actually grown to the forums and I enjoy talking to people here more than I do in real life. I prefer general the most, mainly because I have no special talents and something like the art forum wouldn't suit me. I'd like to see supergandhi64 be interviewed. I don't care if he's cancerous spam to the forums or not, I just want to read what he's going to say."

I guess that you have an opinion about the moderators of Newgrounds. Do you think that they do a great job or not?

koopahermit:

"The mods here aren't too bad, and most of them do a pretty good job. However sometimes BFP can lock an intense thread that could have resolved peacefully and ends up making it anti-climatic."

= = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = 

Would you like to become a moderator on Newgrounds? If so, what kind of moderator?

koopahermit:

"Personally, I wouldn't ever consider being a mod on newgrounds. Just one my pubic hairs is already strong enough to shut down an entire restaurant (stolen from Conal ) so I don't think the extra power would benefit me all that much. Even if I were to become a moderator I probably wouldn't do anything besides delete spam threads in the forums, and we already have many people doing that."

I am walking on thin ice with my guess but I think you like the Dragonball series. What do you like about Dragonball and what is your favourite moment of the series?

koopahermit:

"I'm a pretty large fan of the Dragonball series. The original Dragonball being my favorite, followed by Dragonball Z. I personally hate GT though. It's just some fan-made bullshit. I like Dragonball because it isn't just a fighting anime. It's a fighting anime with sci-fi, fantasy, and old perverts rolled into one masterpiece. My favorite Dragonball moment is probably when Master Roshi and Krillin stripped Bulma's shirt off to help Yamcha win his fight."

You are playing Team Fortress 2. When did you start playing and what do you like about it?

koopahermit:

"I started playing TF2 the day it became F2P. I always wanted to play it, but I was too cheap to purchase it. It has a different art direction than most of today's xX420REALISTICGRAPHICSXx first person shooters, and I like the variety of the weapons in the game. But, what I like more than the weapons and art direction, are the hats. There are lots of really BA ones like the samur-eye and fuukamigasa, and there are some really silly ones like the hot dogger, and the fro. I used to trade hats nonstop until the mannconomy became absolute shit with those key prices. Fuck you Long218."

The E3 happened some weeks ago. What do you think about the upcoming consoles Playstion 4 and Xbox One? Which video game release(s) are you looking forward to?

koopahermit:

"Being the Nintenerd I am, I'm most likely going to get the WiiU. New Smash Brothers, Pikmin 3, Windwaker HD, and don't forget, they're remaking motherfucking EARTHBOUND. For the PS4 vs. Xbox One debate, I'd say the PS4 is clearly the better console based on the E3 conferences. Games, price, exclusive 1960's Batman tv show skin, and the way they trolled microsoft with "Playstation 4 supports used games" made it entertaining to watch. I mean, what does the Xbox One have anyways? New Halo game running at a BLISTERING 60 fps? Bitch please, some 3DS games can run at 140 fps. Speaking of the 3ds, oh mah gawd Pokemon X & Y, holy shiet someone get me a new pair o' pants."

What can we expect from you in the future, koopahermit?

koopahermit:

"Expect me to continue being a contributor in the forums... and only the forums. I have no special talents what so ever. I can't draw, make music, operate flash or any of those things."

Every person has secrets. Can you tell one of yours or something else that we didn't know about you yet?

koopahermit:

"I'm currently in a deep depression right now. It started a few years back and it's been gradually getting worse since. It's not easy for me to even crack a plain smile. I really don't know the reason why I'm sad, and I don't have anyone that I can talk to about it. Maybe someday, I'll find the reason why I'm always sad and put an end to it. And don't worry, I don't cut, do drugs, or take those side effect ridden pills because of it. I don't think one should be dependent on something to be happy.

"I really do hope you get better, no one deserves to be depressed Well, actually, lots of people do, but you're definitely not one of them" - Xenomit"
