Diabetes Boy The Final Chapter Previous threads for context: By the way, this thread is just for anybody that actually cared about the previous posts (which could be absolutely nobody, but meh). I just want to share my happiness as well. Well, Basil, it's been a while since I last talked about it. Since then, I've gone on the vacation, came back, and the most important part: gotten a blood sugar test. And, there is good news and bad news. The good news is I am not diabetic! The bad news is, I am in the early stages of pre-diabetes. But that means it is reversible! So, you bet since I heard that that I am eating much healthier now. I am talking major diet changes. I am so glad that I've been given the opportunity to better myself before its

Diabetes Boy Update Original post here: Well, I told my parents about it. They were pretty shocked at first, and didn't want to believe me. My mom got pretty pissed, my dad was cool about it though. We talked for awhile about the symptoms of type 2 diabetes and the reasons I thought I might have it. They slowly began to realize that I may have a lot of these symptoms, like frequent urinating, dehydration, blurry vision, etc. After accepting it, we decided to schedule a doctor's appointment after our vacation (we leave in a few days, pretty bad time to realize I might have diabetes, I know) and ask what we should do as a next step and what the doctor's opinion on the matter is. It was really painful to see their reaction when I told them. Bo

I need some life advice Now, I know asking Basil probably isn't the best of ideas, considering the fact that I probably wont get a lot of serious answers. So, i'm going to preface this post by saying I would really appreciate some actual responses. This situation is causing me a lot of distress, and I need some people to give me advice. I'll try to keep this short. I'm pretty convinced I've got type 2 diabetes. I have a lot of the symptoms that are present in type 2 diabetics. I thought maybe it's just paranoia, but I have too many of the symptoms for it to be coincidence. Now, that's already pretty hard to deal with, but the next step will be worse: telling my parents. My parents are very healthy people and usually tell me I should not eat

How do I change a nickname I dont like? So last year I was sitting in english class after lunch and I had this huge chicken bean burrito. It was really good, and everything was chill. The class was just sittin and listening to the teacher lecture about some book or something. Then suddenly I felt my butt opening real wide for a fart. I thought it would pretty silent cause I could sort of predict the butt to fart ratio. But I predicted wrong and the fart went out and it was like a nuclear bomb. My desk started vibrating cause it was so big, it was loud and went on for like a minute straight. This fart was like, radioactive I mean I could feel the sheer power of it. Everyone looked at me and was giggling and my face was all red. Now everyone

Level 200 - 250 EDIT: Earlier data regarding total exp from 200 -250 was incorrect and received from and incredible source, the data you see now is correct. So, how long would it take to get from level 200 - 250? Well, lets start with the basics. The total exp needed to go from 250 - 250 is 10,312,878,652,835. Now, assuming the person training is solo training at future perion golems, which give 130,514 experience points, on 1x, you would need to kill 79,017,413 golems to achieve level 250. Now, assuming you are funded and can 1 hit golems, and can kill, I don't know, lets say 5 golems per second, if you were constantly killing 5 golems per second, no exception, it would take you 15,804,383 seconds to get there (4390 hours = 183 days = 0.5

Tip regarding chat hackers So, I was a little skeptical about these chat hacker rumors, but yesterday I received an invitation from somebody like "dkfsjafb" and obviously declined it and disabled my chat. However I decided to do a little more investigating, and did /find. To my surprise, he was in the fm entrance. After searching around the fm entrance some more, I found one other guy with a name like "sknsfkn." Now is this 100% positive that these guys were chat hackers? Of course not, but I would think it is good enough evidence to post on basil and warn people. Now obviously if somebody sends you a chat that seems suspicious, don't accept it. But the main reason I posted this? Be more cautious while in the fm, because

Is this a serious health problem? Ok, ill try to put this in the best wording possible. I guess last night while I was sleeping, I must have slept on my D strange. So now that uuh, "slit" on the tip that the pee comes out of it is twisted weirdly, and the pee always shoots out way to the left now. I've had to sit down while peeing for the past day so it doesn't spray everywhere. Idk if it will fix itself and shape back to normal, or if it is health problem or what, but I guess ill ask for some advice from basilers (which now that I think about it probably is not a good idea at all.)

Old Maple Curiosity So before you yell at me for posting an old maple thread, i'm not saying "Remember this" or "Nexon please revert back to old maple." This thread is out of curiosity of all the threads we see saying I miss old maple. The point of this thread is to ask a simple question. If Nexon created an alternate server which was maplestory 2006, how many of you would actually play the server full time? We see these threads all the time, and our nostalgia sometimes gets the best of us, but i'm just wondering how many of you would give up everything you worked for on the main server to play the old maplestory server, despite it being much slower and harder than the current maplestory. And yes, I said full time, not h

Im depressed now So today, I was taking my driver's ed class as per usual. It is the 5th day of the class, and it was my 4th time driving. So I went out with my instructor, and we drove for roughly 30 minutes before the end of the lesson. I was so happy with myself because he said I was doing great and I made literally no mistakes, the best I had ever done up to this point. However, that all changed in the last 2 minutes or so of the lesson. I was fixed on trying to find the area where you would pull into the parking lot, and I was not concentrating on the road. Bam, I ran a stop sign. I know it was completely my fault, and that I should have been paying more attention to the road ahead. Afterwards I parked, and I got yelled at by my instru

How to Avoid dissapointment As we all know, there are many things going wrong after the server maintenance, and many people are frustrated that they cannot play. So here is a simple way to avoid disappointment. 1. Look ahead for any time there is a scheduled server maintenance, and begin making other plans for that day. 2. Check back once the scheduled server maintenance is done, and if everything is fine, fantastic, go play maplestory. However if it isn't(which is most cases) then proceed to step 3. 3. Go do your other plans you had made for that day. Prepare for extra down time, it usually only takes a few hours to a day for most of the big glitches to be fixed. 4. Check back after a few hours to a day, and there you go. (Note: If you are

Having trouble with occult cube So I got an occult cube from a root abyss a few days ago. The problem is I can't use it. First thing I did was double click it, that did nothing. So then I decided i'd just drag it onto the piece of equipment I wanted to use it on. A message popped up saying, "Cannot be used on this item" even though the item had an epic potential. I then tried to use it on other pieces of equipment with rare or epic potential. No matter what the equip was, the same message popped up. Am I doing something wrong? Please enlighten me.
