Inactivity -Jacobg627

20th October 2015, 04:29 PM
Greetings,
This wasn’t the post I had planned on creating today. I’m here to apologize for my lack of work here rather than share wisdom… just a warning. I’ll try to be straight to the point here, but I might get sidetracked.
I am sorry for inactivity. I’m sure everyone feels this way with school starting, but school is keeping me busy, so that’s pretty self explanatory. I also try to spend time with family, after school stuff, and that sort of thing. So OldCP and the DSGHQ has become a secondary thing in my life, since I have some more friends now.
I’m also being inactive because I am sort of outgrowing the DSGHQ. It’s unfortunate for me, but it’s the truth. I will still go on OldCP and all of Damen’s games to visit friends and fulfill my duties as Grand Most Wise. I’m not quitting, just expect inactivity from me for a little while longer. I will try to come on when I can.
I also apologize for my procrastinating. I’ve been working on the new wise tests, an occasional wise post, and being on DSGHQ moderating forums. So anyone who wants Wise One or and of the Wise ranks, please be patient while I prepare the tests. Thank you.
-Jacobg627
By the way, if you want Wise One, please make sure you are Member+ on forums. PM me on forums, I will try to respond as quick as I can. I don’t give wise tests for people who “want to see how good they can do”. Wise One is a serious rank, and I don’t want to give the wise test to people who don’t want the rank. I will make moods when I finish the wise tests.

AMAZING PIXEL ART
•
22nd September 2015, 06:16 PM
Hello, everyone. A little while back I made a huge Mario pixel art. Big deal. But it's not the typical 8-bit-Mario pixel art classic that you are used to. This is an epic 64-bit pixel art masterpiece. I did it based off of an image, which I will show below.
Nice, right? Now, here is what I got.
Creation time: 8 Hours (not in a row)
Creator: jgd627
Location: Outside of Snowcap City on mc.dsghq.com
http://prntscr.com/8g7gp5 if it doesn't work.
How did I do? If you think I did well, please leave a like and some feedback.

By the way, I plan on making a pixel art business for signatures, etc. PM me for details. Also, if you want a profile picture like mine I can do that for a small cost.

Apology ~Chopper

Hey, Chopper. I'm going to make this not hypocritical, because I was usually right next to you, and I have done similar actions. As Sadie said, bullying is a serious issue, and I was completely unaware of the consequences coming toward you. I know you're better than "insulting users" and "bullying royals". You're better than that. That's not you. I think an IPBan was a bit too much, and suspension for a couple of hours would serve as a fair punishment. Also, I took the Box Head out of my name, and instructed others to do it too, in honor of you. Couldn't have done it without you.
It seems you have learned your lesson. I hope the administrators realize this.

Believe -Jacobg627

4th September 2015, 05:10 PM
One sentence I hate to hear spoken is “I am not cool”. It just doesn’t help anyone. It proves you have no self-confidence, and you prefer not believing in yourself compared to the alternative options. I might not be a popular kid or whatever, but I still think I am cool for who I am. Sure, it sounds like I am an egomaniac, but I prefer it to the alternative. But this whole problem can be fixed with a single word: Believe.
We have all had dreams and goals in our life, at one point in time. But very few people get to live those dreams, because -- obviously -- obstacles come. Some friend betrayed you, something didn’t work out. And the frustration for those people becomes overwhelming. But then some just don’t put it into action because there’s a fear of failing involved. If they fail, they will lose confidence. They will stop and never start again. But you have the opportunity to get your hopes up again, you have to. You have to learn that you will be disappointed in life, because you will be disappointed often. But you can turn that disappointment into drive or just stack up and destroy you.
Everyone is afraid that they are not good enough in some context. Not good enough, not smart enough, not funny enough, not rich enough. You may have that feeling right now in your life. We all feel that, and we all will feel it one day. It’s still not an excuse to start doing what you are doing. “The people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world are the ones who do.” -Steve Jobs
Steve Jobs had founded Apple. He had created the Macintosh, and his company was worth about $2 Billion. He was only 30. And then he got fired. How can you get fired from your own company, you ask? That’s not important. What is important is that he did a lot during the time when he wasn’t at Apple. Ever hear of Pixar Animation Studios? Steve Jobs created it. But do you think Steve Jobs let the stress and disappointment destroy him? I’ll let you answer that for yourself.
What is an area of life that you really want to improve? Something you want to improve. And if you have no desire to be cool, stop complaining about being not cool! If you don’t want to be the popular kid, stop telling yourself it’s bad that you aren’t! You have to see what the problem is, without making it such a big and horrific deal that you give up.
Courage is the ability to do something that frightens one, according to Google. But courage goes deeper than that. Courage is stepping up and doing a task when everyone else is afraid to do it. Courage is showing a great deal of bravery and responsibility. Courage is doing the right thing for you, in every circumstance, no matter what the cost. Courage is knowing what and what not to be afraid of.
I am afraid I have to conclude this discussion. If this inspired you, please leave some feedback and likes are greatly appreciated. I work hard on these and I am considering creating a sequel. Shout outs to xEmmie, Chopper, Bacon, Freddy, and Sam
Thank you

Cardboard Press News -Jacobg

THE CARDBOARD PRESS
OFFICIAL NEWS STATION OF THEBOXHEADS
“I ship it,”
OFFICIAL NEWS STATION OF THEBOXHEADS
“I ship it,”
COVER STORY: WILL THE BOX HEADS JOIN TOPAZ?
Recently, the leader of Topaz, Sam, asked The Box Heads if they wanted to us to join Topaz. We did a poll and got the following results: YES!! (5 votes), Uh.. no (5 votes), No, but they will become allies (5 votes), and Yes, but they will compete in the mod comp as different teams (2 votes). The poll has no clear winner, but the founders of The Box Heads aren’t so sure about merging. “The BoxHeads might become allies but not really merging” says Chopper, a founding father of the box heads. “We really just started out and we want to become our own. Sorry. Think of it as we are America and have an alliance with the British (Topaz)”
“We don’t plan on merging, but having a friendly alliance is always a good plan.” Another founding father, Jacobg627 says. “However, I’m honored to see an offer to merge already. We just started this Box Head trend a few days ago. But we see more potential in remaining independent.” Further development of the story will be released as it happens. You can take the poll here http://strawpoll.me/5129855.
Who are these Box Heads?
The Box Heads are a music group founded by Chopper, Freddy, and Jacobg627. The band was created because Freddy was recently banned on forums and it made the trio sad. So they started wearing boxes on their heads. Then Freddy thought of an idea. “What if we make a band with the boxes on our heads?” He said. That line changed the community forever, even though nobody was there to see it.
“Box Meets Evil?” Jacobg627 suggested. All of them laughed, but again.. this is an important part of the history of The Box Heads.
“The Box Heads!” Chopper and Jacobg627 said, at the same time. Freddy agreed, and it was settled. The next morning, Jacobg627 made a channel called #TheBoxHeads . It gained following quickly, and since then users on OldCP have been wearing boxes on their heads. Some SUPERFANS even changed their forums name to Box head (their name here)! The channel gained 20 subscribers within 14 hours. But Freddy soon became IP Banned on OldCP, too.
This frightened Jacobg627 and Chopper. They were planning on releasing a mixtape, and it was hard to get in contact with him. Therefore, Chopper sent Jacobg627 a forums message. “My brother drake wants to join. He's a pretty good rapper.” and then Drake sent Jacobg627 some of his lines, and he was accepted into The Box Heads.
Part II of the story coming soon
End
Latest Box Heads news will be updated every 1-2 weeks. This depends on how eventful the week was for the group. Thanks for reading, make sure you like this news and subscribe to #TheBoxHeads is you haven’t already. Truly appreciated.

Thank you for the report, I missed the event. Congratulations to DSC, a true competitive legend (especially since I only got 4 goals

Positivity -Jacobg627

7th August 2015, 07:03 PM
This post kind of acts like a late “sequel” to my old post about negativity. if you have not read it, check it out here: http://forums.damenspike.com/view/?id=39887.
Positivity
Look at the sun. He is a friend of the whole world. He will never say “I am your enemy, I shall not come to your house. Even though you are an enemy, you are a friend.” He comes to everyone. Just like that. We should start acting just like that. Showing brightness to everyone. Acknowledge everyone’s existence and never let them down, or ignore them.
Negativity will take you from the highest point in your life to the lowest point in a matter of seconds. I’m seeing too many users from the DSGHQ, or in real life, give up on their goals. Too many. I’m tired of this, when they say “I can’t achieve this.” or “I give up.”
With so many people being negative in life, it’s hard to deal with. And this post is dedicated to you, reader. The one who gave up on their goals. The one who can still do it. It’s never too late to start working towards your goals. Who knows? It could take a day, a year, or a lifetime! About 3 years ago, I was sitting around and being negative. I thought I could never help others or do anything with my life. I thought I couldn’t be famous, I thought I couldn’t be muscular, cool, or whatever my goals happened to be.
Now most people will tell you the chances of happening are minimal. But guess what? They’re right. But not in the way you think. Recently, I have seen a new meaning in the saying. They are not being pessimistic. They are stating the truth, Almost nobody is so willing to become famous that they take up acting classes, or whatever. Almost nobody will be willing to get in shape so much that they will work out so hard, that they will get real results. But I’m no fitness coach, and I’m no acting teacher. I am here to inspire you to do something with your life. If you want to be positive, do something that will make you happy.
Your mindset is everything. If you shift your mind, a problem like “This computer program doesn’t work I will quit programming.” becomes “This computer code doesn’t work, but I am determined to fix it.”
Sometimes, when I’m down, I smile. It just helps me shift my mind. It works muscles in the lips and makes me look nice. I remember telling a user “It is in our darkest moments where we must focus to see the light,”. We must fall, so when we climb over that obstacle in life we can celebrate. We need to have bad days to put them in comparison to the good ones. The world may be a mean place, but depending on your mindset you can change that. You still know it’s a mean place, and you acknowledge the fact, but you also acknowledge the fact that there are positive things in the world too. You take risks, but you know they will pay off.
“A man who has made a mistake has never tried anything new.” -Albert Einstein
Remember, the word possible was required to make the word impossible. The word can was required to make the word can’t. The word impossible literally says “I’m possible,” so what are you waiting for?
“Start by doing what's necessary; then do what's possible; and suddenly you are doing the impossible.” -Francis of Assisi
One of my goals I thought I’d never achieve was to make an impact on someone’s life. I hope you do more than read these posts, I hope you understand them. It will give me something to be positive about Thank you so much, and I hope you enjoy your day. Leave a +1 if you enjoyed, I worked hard on this. However, if you didn’t, feel free to dislike.
-Jacobg627
I will still work on this post, so I will notify you all when there is a major update.

I know how to make them. You need:
1) Screen recorder
2) Pro editing software (Sony Vegas Pro, Camtasia 8.5, After Effects cs6, etc.), particularly one that has Picture-In-Picture features and such.
3) Basic editing knowledge. These aren't easy to make.
How to do:
1) Record your penguin. Do this however you want.
2) Import into editing software
3) Add effects. Colorize the image, add effects, etc. (it's called different things depending on the software. But once you get used to it you'll get gr8.)
It's not easy. You can download a free trial of the softwares on the internet. And if you're on a Mac you can just use iMovie
