09/12/2014: My previous attempt at renaming the directory to foil the spambots did not work. I'm trying now to change the login information for the SQL database. There may be a little bit of downtime but it shouldn't take long.
09/11/2014: I've been having problems with spambots preventing legit users from being able to sign up correctly. I've tried changing the directory from bbs to forums. Hopefully that will stop them and I can remove the retrictions stopping real users from signing up. Sorry if some of your bookmarks have become broken. They can be fixed by replacing bbs with forums in the properties.

Well being self-employed is probably the best, but that's difficult (depending on what one does).<br><br>I think TV food taster/restaurant reviewer for the FoodNetwork, (aka "The Best of" if you've ever watched that show), is truly a dream job. Just go into the restaurant, interview the chefs a bit, and eat. :P <br><br>ZL<br><br>Videogame tester/reviewer would also be an awesome job. Very few people make livable money off this though. Maybe if you were working for Electronic Gaming monthly or something... <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :p --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/images/emoticons/tongue.gif ALT=":p"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <p><!--EZCODE IMAGE START--><img src="http://www.buncha-network.com/zl/R3K.gif"/><!--EZCODE IMAGE END--> <!--EZCODE IMAGE START--><img src="http://www.buncha-network.com/zl/ZLstrat.gif"/><!--EZCODE IMAGE END--> <!--EZCODE BR START--><br /><!--EZCODE BR END--><br>Empires wax and wane; states cleave asunder and coalesce. <br><br><!--EZCODE ITALIC START--><em>"Swift as the wind, silent as the forest, fierce as the fire, steady as the mountain."</em><!--EZCODE ITALIC END--> A banner used by the Takeda clan of Kai (Sengoku Jidai era). </p><i></i>

Game tester, you get paid to play new video games. <p> <br>"I'm the greatest, and I can't possibly be beat!- Cassius Clay aka Muhammed Ali<br><br><br>"I am become death, the destroyer of worlds"- Robert Oppenheimer<br> </p><i></i>
I'd say Hobo, but that's more of a subclass than a job. Production Manager/Producer of a video game has to be the easiest and best job out there. All you do is think up stuff to put in video games.=/ That's why I do it.<br><br>Voice Acting. You get paid big money to talk.=<br><br>Rodeo Clown.

Best job: Computer games programmer, professional gamer might be good too ^_^<br>As for games testing I have also heard it gets very boring, at one the universities I was going to apply to there was an advert for games testers, but no wanted the job because it gets so boring, my guide said most people preferred data entry over games testing o.O <p><!--EZCODE CENTER START--><div style="text-align:center"><!--EZCODE HR START--><hr /><!--EZCODE HR END--><!--EZCODE LINK START--><a href="http://pub19.ezboard.com/ftenchimuyo79943frm144"><!--EZCODE IMAGE START--><img src="http://www.lindenryuujin.34sp.com/Ezboard/Sigpic4.jpg" style="border:0;"/><!--EZCODE IMAGE END--></a><!--EZCODE LINK END--><!--EZCODE BR START--><br /><!--EZCODE BR END--><!--EZCODE BOLD START--><strong>~ Links ~<!--EZCODE BR START--><br /><!--EZCODE BR END-->[ <!--EZCODE LINK START--><a href="http://www.lindenssite.btinternet.co.uk">My Final Fantasy Site</a><!--EZCODE LINK END--> | <!--EZCODE LINK START--><a href="http://www.lindenryuujin.34sp.com/IPB">My Board</a><!--EZCODE LINK END--> | <!--EZCODE LINK START--><a href="http://www.tenchimuyoonline.net/mboard/">Tenchi Muyo!
