On the topic of spoilers, I steer clear of them as best I can. Sorry to anyone in T.O. who read my background info on Seren and Aderyn. I never tell the endings of most of my stories, mainly because it's mean and you won't want to read the middle and because I haven't thought them up yet.
As for me being influential, I do the Springtime of Youth thing so much so that I know what needs to be done today. It keeps me on track and stuff.
There is this one guy... I think it's justin3009 or something along those lines... but he's great with hacking things. I was personally quite happy when I saw that he had done stuff with Tales of Destiny (such as what happens when we give Clement to Lilith and make her use Stahn's moves).
