Rambler 1-1 9 Posted June 25, 2008 As some of you may have noticed (probably not- but "As most of you didn't notice" sounds like a crappy way to start a paragraph) , I was gone for a while after a virus and subsequent hard drive crash that no ammount of backing up could have prevented. However, perserverance prevailed and I got this thing I call a computer back online. No more mods for me, this thing just goes belly-up as soon as I put in anything new. Anyway, I got back on here and I noticed that a few things have changed. First, where the heck is USAFBLT, and who's this "Dave" guy? Second, all these guys who were "junior members" when I last saw them have now graduated to "Elite Members" and the like. They grow up so fast! Third, what's the deal with the new smilies? like who the heck is gonna use or on a regular basis? next, I noticed that somebody finally called themselves "New Guy". Way to go, buddy. Is Baghdad Bob still trying to Jihad us all into oblivion? Also, NO ARROW YET?!?!?! And who here is not running a freaking supercomputer? I could go on... the more I look through here the more questions I have. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rambler 1-1 9 Posted June 25, 2008 you still haven't awnsered any of my questions, Dave, if that is your real name. Personally I feel kind of weird calling a person I've never even met by their first name. But Mr. Slavens sounds weird too. And I don't want to have to call anybody "sir" over the internet. It was a lot easier just to say "'MTL". Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Longestpants 1 Posted June 25, 2008 I feel your troubles. I know what it's like to have a temperamental system. As one who has escaped from that Gulag, I can assure you that it is doable. It's beautiful on the other end of the tunnel. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Air Zoo is quite fantastic, my good Rambler. My system is hardly a supercomputer. In fact, she putters out running X-Wing Alliance. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rambler 1-1 9 Posted June 25, 2008 lol. seems like just yesterday...I was the FNG. You old timers have helped a lot over these past months. whoa, whoa, whoa. Old timers? I still feel like a n00b, despite that thing over there <--- telling me that I'm "Elite". When did that happen anyway? Also, Help? I know that 'MTL-Up-untill-he-went-into-the-reserves has always lent a hand, but me? All I do is post pictures and grump about things, like my slow computer and the LACK OF AN AVRO ARROW! see?

Rambler 1-1 9 Posted June 25, 2008 The Air Zoo is quite fantastic, my good Rambler. My system is hardly a supercomputer. In fact, she putters out running X-Wing Alliance. compared to my box, the commodore 64 is a supersomputer. At least you have 2.4 GHz... that's 2.4072 times more powerful than mine. X-Wing Alliance? good game. Although why do you need wings in space? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JediMaster 451 Posted June 25, 2008 Our resident Spad Girl now has shortened to "NFG", but she's not around as much as she used to be. I thought she said something about her personal life (ie away from the PC) getting more busy, so that's to be expected. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
