The name of the band is Our Lady Peace and the 3rd song on the album is Somewhere out there. I looked all day for the song from which your lyrics are from. I literally looked at every song this band has done and I still didnt find. I even looked at the rare and cover songs they did. Ah well, I was able to answer the other question at least.

I'm must apologize to cHoSeN-oNe and JumpinJedi, my recent comments have been very rude and unjust. You both are right, I've been much of a jerk since I came back to the Jedi Academy.
But I'm not backing down, and not leaving. All I can hope to do ask for your forgiveness and start from scratch.

I do know that you both have earned your rank through hard work, and both have the right to it. I never meant to imply that you didn't. If anything, I didn't earn mine, or rather, maintain it correctly. I became single-minded, and only wanted the reconition I thought I deserved.

I do thank you for completing my script cHoSeN-oNe, I hope you can forgive me for my recent comments towards you. I also want to say sorry to the entire Jedi Academy, I haven't been quite the upstanding player, and have set a bad example. At the time of my lost of rank, I did not deserve it, and it was entirely my fault.

Oh, the reason I was put on the Counsil/Staff, is exactly that... I was interested in only bettering the Jedi Academy... Making friends, and generally making the Jedi Academy a fun place to be at... Not because of a script or anything... And I hope this is what every player at the Academy strives to do.

Well, well, well...I guess the true feelings come out huh Matthew? This utter hatred you have against me just for completing a project you abandoned here in the JA is not a valid response. Yes, you did make the "skeleton" as you would like to call it for the JA Script. I have also written that into the Script to give proper credit to where it is due, so I do not understand why you should be so upset. If someone were to take over the Jedi Academy Mod, if I were too busy to do so I would be so glad that someone offered to help. Of course, I'd like to oversee the final builds to check it out:P Again, I have sent you copies of the JA Script to show you what I was up to and even asked you for some feedback. You said "Great job" and that was that. I was so involved with the Jedi Academy Mod that I had barely enough time to get sleep let along work on the script, so I entrusted my helpful partner Huxley to finish it. I'm glad that he can help, I do not "Hate" him for helping me finish something I dont have time for. In any case, there shouldnt be so many harshful and disrespecting remarks towards me. I personally do not like the comments you have written on both this profile description and posts.

Yun, you're proving why you were bumped off : Your attitude.

Because I said "What did Yun do to get himself Staff rank ?", doesn't mean I hate you. It was DJ's decision to give you a student account.

DC has been given Staff rank because he busts his ass mapping for us. He was asked to do so.

JediSith was given the rank because he BUILt this place.

Chosen was promoted to Jedi Master because of his hard work as a JAT, on the script, and on the mod.

You did a script, then vanished. Then, you come out with the pissy attitude. The pissy attitude alone should have had you bumped off the staff.

I don't hate you, I just don't appreciate the utter disrespect you gave Zero and I on IRC.

Furthermore, Chosen doesn't hate you either. He did a script that you didn't finish. I don't care who's the better scripter, to be honest, noone but you two do. So Yun, either do something worthwhile, or get the hell out of the JA, and maybe this time, stay out.

Oh, and scripting IS coding...Canadians, Eh ? ;)

Maybe because Derelict Crusader did his job of making the maps and if he wants he'll probably make another map if he wants. JediSith is the founder and he deserves recognition more than just being a name somewhere in the list of students. They fulfilled their tasks. Chosen One finished yours

This isn't a job and real life is definitely more important. But this is a private organization. Its the same thing as a job if you are a staff member of a private organization. You are expected to fulfill your duties, and if you slack off and don't do them someone else will step up and take your place. Hopefully someone that will fulfill their responsibilities. Knowing what needs to be done doesn't amount to a hill of beans if you don't get it done. Simple fact of life, if you can't fulfill your duties someone else or several someones will fulfill them and you're out of a position and probably won't get it back because they are more reliable than you've shown yourself to be.

Yun, from what I've heard you kept leaving and coming back so often that it was impossible to find you. You wouldn't say when you left. Chosen One finished your job because you weren't getting it done. I don't know if you've ever had a real job but you can't keep one very long if you never finish anything or keep leaving and not telling anyone where you are going or when you'll be back and expect your position to still be open when you return.
