    BiG_Dave's interview...the newest admin in GameRenders...and yup, you guessed it: he's english. Quite "posh" in my opinion... ;)

    Bold - Questions
    Italics - My off the record comments

    Andrew = myself
    BiG_Dave = ...himself
    ~*~Andrew*~*:
    ok Mr. Big...tell us how you are today? ;)


    BiG_Dave:
    Im feeling fantastic today as you all voted *me* staff member of the month, feels great

    BiG_Dave:
    and how are you feeling?

    ~*~Andrew*~*:
    like a lawyer about to kill a criminal on trial :D

    BiG_Dave:
    rofl... thats nice to know

    ~*~Andrew*~*:
    ok Big Dave...you say we voted you in, the truth is...? ;)


    (BiG_Dave's comments have been edited out for because the word filter blocks most of them out)

    ~*~Andrew*~*:
    Staff member of the month- Thats quite a honor. How long have you been at GameRenders now,roughly?


    BiG_Dave:
    errrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr... *checks joined date* -since the 5th of july 2005

    BiG_Dave:
    near 2 months

    ~*~Andrew*~*:
    Not to long, have you enjoyed it?

    BiG_Dave:
    no, i've absolutely hated every minute of it. j/k. It's been an experience... A good one i might add.
    Just getting to know lots of peops and helping out the community, its all fun.

    ~*~Andrew*~*:
    Joe(llam) has put in alot of energy and time into GameRenders, but truthfully...did you even know what a render was before joining GR? lol


    ~*~Andrew*~*:
    don't feel bad, i didn't


    BiG_Dave:
    lol

    BiG_Dave:
    Yes, i actually did, my neighbour is pretty good with graphics and he used to make desktop images
    for me. I didn't know how he did them and im still pretty useless at gfx. But i'm getting a lil better.
    Hopefully i'll be one of the greats soon.

    ~*~Andrew*~*:
    I bet you have created more signatures then me...but, before GR, what did you do on the
    internet? *cough*besides scare the ladies on your webcam


    BiG_Dave:
    haha, well, i played a popular fps game which most people woulda heard of, Counter-strike. I was
    pretty good, still am. Been playing for about 4 years
    now and i have been to and won several tournments. I
    also played a game called star wars galaxies (MMORPG).
    It took like a year or so to make my character a jedi,
    but after i got it, i got bored of the game and sold it
    on ebay. lol. time well spent I think

    ~*~Andrew*~*:
    Pretty good? It sounds like you still play alittle bit. Would you mind playing me 1 vs 1 so i can
    "pwn" you with headshots? (for our readers out there- the "Moderators" are thinking of testing out big dave's
    skill. 9 moderators vs the admin..place your bets now :D)


    BiG_Dave:
    Well, as i so uberly brilliant at cs, why not take llamaman on your team too lol. Nah, i think me
    and llamaman can take you considering i taught him how to play cs properly. He was just a lil n00b when i met
    him. Still is really... lol. There is only one major problem with that match. We are in different continents
    and therefore our pings are gonna be in the 500 region (usually 20 where i play)

    ~*~Andrew*~*:
    Tell us..where does your GR name come from, and is it a name you use often on the internet?


    BiG_Dave:
    Well thats an easy one. Dave = my real name
    and im big... therefore i'm BiG_Dave :D
    I don't use this name on games though, my in game name
    is Coutho or Mythos.If your wondering where i got those
    names from what i do when i change my name, i look
    around my room and look at labels lol. Mythos is
    actually a greek beer. Coutho is on a video near my TV.

    ~*~Andrew*~*:
    I'm saving the hard questions for last ;)and how long have you been playing Poker, Mr. Poker Legend?


    BiG_Dave:
    Great, im looking forward to them. Not very
    long, me and a few mates only started playing poker late
    october last year. This consists of a group of 7 people,
    in skill order: Me, Dan, James, Matt, Raz, Gregg & last
    and also least Llamaman (Joe). He is a legend, We got
    pictures of him being really annoyed after losing an all
    in bluff - 7 2 offsuit (for those who don't know that is the worst starting hand)

    ~*~Andrew*~*:
    ROFL...and how much will the GameRenders
    public have to pay to see these pictures?


    BiG_Dave:
    if i ever released them to the public, whoever
    saw them would be banned by llamaman because of the
    embarrassment it would carry for him. I would never hear
    the end of it, and my life as an admin of GR would be
    over as we know it. Therefore i will show for 200 creds. lol

    ~*~Andrew*~*:
    So we know alittle bit about your online life, and we hear glimspes of stories from your real life ready to burst out. Tell us alittle about yourself: how old you are, where do you live, do you work? etc

    BiG_Dave:
    I'm 2 months off 18 - thats gonna be one great party and your all invited. Are ya excited? Are ya? I
    sure as hell am. I live in a town called Slough - The 2nd worst town in England... According to some book.
    It's a great feeling. But the closest town to it is
    Windsor, which is where the queen lives. Which means i
    can see a massive castle from my window...

    ~*~Andrew*~*:
    Do you have a job? Or do any work at all?

    Do i work? of course i do, im admin on this
    site aren't i? lol, Other than that though, i work for the Number 1 supermarket in the UK, it's like the UK's
    equivalent to the US company wall mart. It's called TESCO, and i'm
    privaleged because I work in the biggest TESCO in the
    country. 3 weeks old... and its already falling apart.
    for those who want to do some home shopping, visit www.tesco.com - I swear im not getting commision on this :P

    ~*~Andrew*~*: Most know by now, that your a very good
    friend of Llam and thats how you came to learn about
    GameRenders & work here! Tell us...how did you guys
    meet, and how long have you been friends?

    BiG_Dave:
    Well, we both go to the same school. I met him
    in year 9, now in the last year 13. So 3-4 Years. He is
    in my form and we basically study all the s e subjects.
    I found out about this site when i was slapping him around in the library during one of our free periods. He
    walked off and went onto the computer and logged onto
    this site. I followed and slapped him somemore (he can't get enough really)..

    BiG_Dave:
    and then i decided i wanted to join the site
    as it looked like a bit of fun, and guess what... IT IS.

    BiG_Dave:
    I then asked him if he needed any help with
    the site keeping it running and moderating etc. He said yeah, and gave me this admin position and now im in full
    training and i know most of it all now... aint all y'all
    rippers happy?

    ~*~Andrew*~*:
    and the rest of history. Sounds like you enjoy beating up kids and being a general bully. You
    should work on channeling that energy & time into something useful....as in sports? Do you play any
    sports?


    BiG_Dave:
    e-sports, im an online legend.

    (e-GEEK)

    *edit from dave* - off the record that comment from above.

    BiG_Dave:
    i used to play football... or should i say
    soccer for a team and used to be really good, but then i quit and became BiG_Dave.

    BiG_Dave:
    And no i don't enjoy beating up kids, i just like slapping around llamaman around cos its so funny

    ~*~Andrew*~*:
    Tell us a story of something you've done with Llamaman, because...i remember how bad my friends & I were


    BiG_Dave:
    oh... haha i got one. We was in town one day
    and he needed to get some money out of the bank. I stood
    right next to him at the ATM machine and watched as he
    entered his pin number. Then when we got it i just
    started shouting it out and really annoying him about it. He was getting really annoyed so he ordered a new
    one. Later that week we went into his house and i found the pin number slip and....

    BiG_Dave:
    started doing it all again ahahaha. It was hilarious. He got another one now and he won't give me
    the pin number :( so i just steal his wallet and slap him around a bit more. It's so fun, if u ever come to
    england, the most famous person u have to meet is Joe. He's a great laugh.

    ~*~Andrew*~*:
    I was there in April, but i wasn't really that active at GameRenders, or well known. Maybe next
    time i go back, i'll stop and have a few shots with you guys :) Sounds like your quite a bit bigger then
    Llamaman and, tell us what you look like


    (so we know why the ladies say no)

    BiG_Dave:
    HEY! I have you know im quite the stud with the ladies... like the other night... better not say,
    young people present. Im 6ft tall and quite a large built body. I have brown hair and blue eyes. I'm sexy to
    be honest. It's not that im a bit bigger than llamaman, it's that he is the thinnest little bugger you've ever
    seen. And he wears black to make it worse (black is a slimming colour).

    ~*~Andrew*~*:
    Sounds like your quite modest; are their any girlfriends in the picture right now? Note i use the
    plural version because your such a stud i'm sure you have 2 or 3 ;)


    BiG_Dave:
    I don't have a girlfriend set in stone, i'm waiting on this girl to come back off holiday and see
    how things go with her, she seems pretty cool. But other than her there is 3 or 4 girls i can call on any time of
    day ;)

    ~*~Andrew*~*:
    It seems like we're pretty much done, i
    feel like i'm forgetting something. Maybe theirs some
    information/story/ or a message you want to tell the
    GameRender members?


    BiG_Dave:
    what kind of story would you like to hear

    ~*~Andrew*~*:
    I'll leave that for people to ask you
    later on, we don't want to tell the few stories you have
    left..would ruin the fun later on. Any message you have
    for the GameRender members? (insert shameless plug to
    buy Premium Membership)


    BiG_Dave:
    Okies, well as you all know the new site is
    still in development. We are very close to finishing the
    design of it and when ll an gets his ass back from
    holiday we may be going into the testing stages of the
    new site. As i have said before... there will be lots
    more benefits for those who own a premium membership in
    the new site so i urge u to purchase them whilst the
    prices are as low as they are now.

    ~*~Andrew*~*:
    Well thanks for taking the time to allow me to interview you. Hopefully you won't be stalked for any information you gave today :)
