Pfft, Rachel was doing unknown action for about an hour.

Come on guys, have you really already forgotten what an unknown action is?
"In the meantime, no one should roam the camp alone. Use the buddy system."
"Understood." Will looked at Nico. "Will you be my buddy?"
"You're a dork," Nico announced.

I know that the secret mod action has something to do with members, but members can't do that can they?

It's an unknown action when the forum doesn't have a name to describe whatever someone's doing.  And members can commit them.
"The world is indeed full of peril, and in it there are many dark places; but still there is much that is fair, and though in all lands love is now mingled with grief, it grows perhaps the greater." ~J.R.R. Tolkien

But what ARE the members actually doing?

Jetthebinturong

You see that little notepad button in the bottom right of your posts for editing? That's your unknown action right there. The forum knows you're doing something but because you haven't moved to a new page, it doesn't know what, resulting in the unknown action.
"In the meantime, no one should roam the camp alone. Use the buddy system."
"Understood." Will looked at Nico. "Will you be my buddy?"
"You're a dork," Nico announced.

oh, the quick edit button. Oooohhh!

You'll also read as performing an Unknown Action if someone goes to Who's Online within about eight seconds of your posting or sending a message.  The forum doesn't have a name for that limbo between pressing "Post" or "Send" and going back to the topic or board or your messages, so it's called an Unknown Action.  There's also another way to perform an Unknown Action in your messages and a way that anyone, even guests, can perform that will read as an Unknown Action for longer than a few seconds, even up to 15 minutes.  I don't think those methods are exhaustive, though; there should be other ways, too.
I spent too much time last summer figuring out different ways to perform an Unknown Action.

You mean those wannabes? ;D ;D
Mozart was around almost two centuries ago, and they're still important nowadays. Will Owl City be as memorable 200 years from now?

I dunno, I head Fireflies paying on the radio the other day.


I'm retired from the forum

Well, I like it, James.  There's no wrong way to take that.

My roommate's and my relationship right now:

Roommate (appearing from nowhere): Can you shave the side of my head?
Me: I can in a little while. I'm working on something.
Roommate: How long is a little while?
Me: I'm not completely sure.
Roommate: Can you give me an estimate? Because I don't want to start something else and be in the middle of it when you're finally ready.
Me: YEAH IT WOULD TOTALLY SUCK TO BE INTERRUPTED IN THE MIDDLE OF SOMETHING.

Roommate: *looking at me and dancing to music that I can't hear because we're both wearing headphones*
Me: *watches shows intently*
Roommate: *continues dancing on the other couch and staring at me*
Me: *ignoring her*
Roommate: *shouting* I'm really into this song!
Me: MY FAVOURITE CHARACTER JUST DIED AND HIS BEST FRIEND IS CARRYING HIS BODY. SHUT UP.

Roommate: I want chocolate.
Me: *ignore*
Roommate: I want chocolate.
Me: Do you have chocolate?
Roommate: Yes... but I want some of your chocolate.
Me: Wait, what?
Roommate: Can I have some of your chocolate?
Me: What's the difference?
Roommate: If I eat all of my chocolate, it'll be gone.
Me: IT'S NOT A BLOODY COLLECTOR'S ITEM. YOU BOUGHT IT TO EAT IT.

Roommate: I want ice cream.
Me: *ignore*
Roommate: I want ice cream.
Me: Do you have a tub of ice cream?
Roommate: No.
Me: Neither do I.
Roommate: Are those ice cream sandwiches in the freezer yours?
Me: Yes.
Roommate: ...Can I have one?
Me: ...One.

Roommate: I want some hot chocolate.
Me: *stirring hot chocolate* Do you have hot chocolate?
Roommate: No. Can I have some?
Me: Sure. It's on my shelf.
Roommate: Will you make it for me?
Me: No.
Roommate: ...Nevermind then.

Roommate: Yum, fried chicken.
Me: *frying chicken* *ignore*
Roommate: That smells really-
Me: YOU HAVE A FLIPPING DINING HALL MEAL PLAN DON'T SAY ANOTHER WORD.

So's this:

My inspiring introduction on my ePortfolio:

I believe first and foremost in honesty. If you're looking for a portfolio that's loaded with inspirational cliches, or waxes eloquent about its writer's achievements, I'm afraid you'll do better to look someplace else. All you will find here are the hard facts about me, such as they are. If you as readers aren't impressed, all I can say is that I'm sorry, and that I don't blame you. If this portfolio is to lead you to believe that I do have something to offer, it's better for that to come by a bleak revelation of the facts than through silver-tongued rhetoric. Even so, I hope you'll find this content enlightening and memorable.

"Tell the truth." - Grover Cleveland

Seeing as I have not posted anything yet, I shall throw my hand in.

How the heck do you create a person?
Ask your parents about that one.  We really shouldn't go into detail here.

I'm sure there's someone out there for you, Wylder. There's plenty of fish in the sea besides Tam.
