When did you find Newgrounds and why did you join? Why did you choose the username vampirefan2 and why did you change it to Lady-Stardust and later to Nebula?

Nebula:

"Well obviously, vampirefan2 was just a terrible username, so to reflect my interest in glam rock at the time I changed it to Lady-Stardust then I changed it to Nebula cause I got tired of people pestering me about changing it back. Also just because Nebula is just easier to type (yeah I'm lazy I guess). Still not changing back though. Besides, I really couldn't stand being called "LSD".

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

Nebula:

"A little bit I suppose but not really. I still like glam rock and I'm still gothy. However I have become very distrusting and a bit of an introvert. In fact I barely talk to my neighbors, not that I hate them but they don't talk to me much either anyway. I'm not very social is what I'm saying here especially when I left school. Not to mention a lot of my friends left with no way to contact them at all. Back to my trust issues. I've been getting backstabbed a LOT this year, Thanks completely to my brother. I digress though, I won't drama dump anymore here."

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

Nebula:

"NuScarab for one, it was heart-breaking to see him hurt himself with his alcohol years ago, he became better obviously and I do need to talk about films with someone. He does the trick for me in that department. Gagsy is just fun especially since we love the same shows more or less (Hannibal, Supernatural, and Sherlock). Floff is a lot of fun too, I think we could be "BBF's" in real life if we ever met."

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

Nebula:

"I reallly can't stand users like Landon, S0V, and Unowned. They're pretentious, stuck-up, children. You know the types, they complain about the government and such and such. When honestly, they always come across as upper class suburb kids. This kid is banned luckily but CreepyJ was just... Unsettling when he was around. Really, with users like that I'm not surprised we had some good ones leave."

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?

Nebula:

"I tend to just go with general most of the time (even if some of threads are.... Questionable to say the least) but the video game forum is fun at least. Being a gamer myself (dumb term but there you go). I tend to avoid the politcs forum though, it's largely a cesspool of flame wars. Like many politcal forums (hence why some forums don't have them). I dunno."

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

Nebula:

"The mods are fine by me honestly. Though Gory can be kind of tiresome with his lectures on erm.. Certain topics which I won't get into here. Rad is problably the best mod right now even if he only mods the chat."

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

Nebula:

"Feh, seems like too much work honestly. Although it would be fun to ban certain users tehe. I think I'd go with chat mod if I did decide to be one though but I dunno."

You were a member before the redesign 2007. Tell me how you experienced Newgrounds back then and what changes you liked about the redesign?

Nebula:

"Can't remember much but I would watch a lot of flash cartoons. Two of which made me fans of a couple of bands (Mew and Theodor Bastard BTW). I did post even if the posts were absolutely terrible, although to be fair to myself, I was 14. I wish I could remember the site back in 2007. I don't think I was on it much though back then."

The last redesign happened 2012. Tell me what you think about it. What do you like and what is not so good?

Nebula:

"It's okay I guess. I love that the site isn't super bright with tiny text and doesn't have the ever-annoying infite scroll like a lot of modern websites. I miss the userpage banners though, but oh well, we at least have our sigs in PNG. Another plus is the chat, even if some of the users who went on it were really bothersome."

You are a frequent visitor of the Newgrounds Featureless Chat. What do you like about the chat and what is not good about it?

Nebula:

"Users like Rad, Jay, Gagsy, tigerkitty, and others. Like I said though, some users made it a terrible experience sometimes. Luckily 4 of those questionable users are long gone. I won't go into much detail about them here but needless to say, good riddance."

It seems like you are a fan of the tv series Doctor Who. Tell my readers what the series is about and why you like it. Which of the Doctor's incarnations do you like the most and which actor would you like to see playing the Doctor in the future?

Nebula:

"Ohhh boy, this might contain some nerd-gushing. Well it's about a time travelling alien from a planet called Gallifrey. I like a lot of the stories. They're more or less fairy tales. I like the universe and how it allows for a lot of possible adventures and creativity. My first incarnation of him was the 9th doctor. So he was my favorite version. I guess Daniel Radcliffe could work if they're ever going with a younger doctor again."

You are a huge fan of movies in general. What was your favorite movie of 2013? Likewise, which film of 2013 did you find the most horrible?

Nebula:

"The World's End, although Pacific Rim came very close. Spring Breakers was an absolutely terrible movie with Only God Forgives coming in second. Seriously, don't get me started on Spring Breakers. Especially since I ranted about that movie to death. Yeah just look at my review on my Letterboxd (shameless plug I know and yes the site's name is spelled like that)."

Einstürzende Neubauten is one of your favourite bands. What are your favourite songs? Did you ever visit one of their concerts? If so, talk about this experience.

Nebula:

"Yee, well I like "The Garden", "Halber Mensch" and "Stella Maris" a lot. I wish I could say I went to one of their concerts but I haven't sadly (yet). So I'll just say other things here. I love that Blixa joined up with Nick Cave for The Bad Seeds which is yet another one of my favorite bands. Nick and Blixa were just amazing together."

You have played atleast some of the Silent Hill games. Which one is your favourite and which scene(s) did you like the most? What is your opinion about the adaptions?

Nebula:

"Silent Hill 2 and I like the scenes with Angela, also the reveal scene which I won't spoil here. Bleh. The first movie was okay I guess, wish they didn't gender swap Harry but oh well. The 2nd movie really suffers for me however. Changing Vincent really killed it for me and what they did to Doug, Memory of Alessa, Pyramid Head, and Claudia also. Just an all around terrible sequel."

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

Nebula:

"*Drama dump alert* Well, I have trust issues which can contradict with my need for friends but really, considering the stuff that happened in the past it'd be easy to see why. I'm just scared of being hurt I guess. I'll avoid being redundant here."

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

Nebula:

"More art I guess. Might try to do some music also since I got a guitar and keyboard now. Dunno if I'll ever do flash animations but we'll see. I am thinking of doing movies of a sort."
